The underlying donut was somewhat firm (a minus) and cool to the touch (a minus)-- most likely refrigerated, as this was a late spring visit on a warm day. Bready, briochy taste to the donut, with no sweetness (neither plus nor minus), letting the toppings and fillings handle that. Plenty of yellow vanilla pudding inside (a plus for quantity). No seating inside (a minus) but a single metal table outside that looks like it hasn't been cleaned in weeks (big minus). Filled with pollen. I do like the selection (big plus) and the crazy flavors will appeal to a wide range of tastes, but there are places where you can still get a fresh donut and sometimes even a warm one. Rocco's doesn't seem to be one of them. Not bad by any means but not screaming out for a revisit.

You get what you pay for at Rocco's. These doughnuts are MASSIVE and always beautiful. What makes…read morethem special is definitely the toppings and unique flavors that they put out monthly. Rocco's is also very consistent. You can expect that no matter what doughnut you're getting, the yeast donut or cake rings will always be the same - just vary by topping. This is a really good thing, since they've been open for so long and haven't changed their doughnut recipe. Besides their fun and unique monthly flavors, the good ones I always find myself going back to are the Boston Creme, Maple Bacon, and Apple Fritter. These are classics that are almost always be on the menu. I'm also pretty sure Rocco's has the best Boston Creme in Boston. It's a small shop with tons of options, friendly folk at the counter, and delicious photo-worthy doughnuts. What's not to love?

The apple fritter was my favorite, I loved the apple chunks and had a little crisp to it being double fried. The topping of the cannoli donut was so so good. I was expecting the inside of this one to be cannoli filling, but it was like a chocolate mousse which was a little disappointing. Overall I want to come back and try their cake donuts.

I ordered the Boston Benedict (pictured) and my boyfriend got 2 eggs, toast, and sausage (not pictured) we waited about 20-30 minutes for our food or more and we even came after the breakfast rush hour. We also got 1 glazed donut to try and it was raw and greasy! Our drinks also came in plastic cups? You know like the plastic paper Dixie cups lol... The ambiance was awkward and dirty, we could visibly see the grill which was caked with black charred gunk. We watched the cook continuously drop egg shells all over the floor from our seat and overall just dirty. Again, we witnessed all this until we got our food, I received my meal first and my boyfriend waited an additional 10-15 minutes for his meal so I was basically finished before he even got to eat. The only "decent" thing about this place is the dirt cheap prices but that also means dirt cheap ingredients as we could see all the products used by the cook as well. Unless you want to sit in a dirty atmosphere and eat raw donuts I would not suggest going here!! Save your stomach and go elsewhere.

Cool higher end culinary items for purchase and some other weird but welcome items like handmade soap! Good community posting board! Chill vibes and surly baristas that make you feel like you're in a bigger city! What I don't love: there are never signs telling what the baked items are, so you literally have to ask one by one at every visit- as does every single person in line. It makes me feel guilty for the people behind me and I often rush before fully exploring my options. This is made worse when I bring my small indecisive child, so I go elsewhere when I have him with me. Also- 90% of the time that I have asked, the attending barista isn't certain what the baked items are and says something like "I think that one is an apricot and cheese danish. Or cheese and some fruit. I'm not positive." At Crust's prices, I'd like to know what I'm buying and I would appreciate time to make a decision. Why won't you tell us what your yummy pastries are?? Lastly- the automatic tipping options are so high (this is coming from someone who never tips below 20%) that it makes me wonder if you're paying your employees appropriately, or expecting tips to make up the difference. If you were to change one thing and one thing only from this feedback, PLEASE consider labeling your baked goods! I truly cannot think of a good reason why not to.

But I was on a mission : - ) I was in the city yesterday to visit relatives and thinking of what to bring to them would not be deter me as I snaked my way through all the construction. Trying not the be negative, the thought entered my mind that this wonderful place may not have made it through the pandemic... But there it was - lights on and someone walked out while I was parking... The on-way street has parking on both sides. I've always found it to be tough to find a spot... but I hit it right, finding one directly across! I was greeted by the nicest, friendly clerk who chatted with me some while she hand- sifted powdered sugar over a few paczkis ( Polish/Eastern European donuts) I bought. I kept going... hoping for a cheese babka, they only had a few other kinds - it was late morning. So I opted for a Walnut Strudel that looked delish. I added a few more items to my purchase. She packed them well. Leaving, it took more snaking around the streets, but not too bad. I just want to remind people that what you purchase here will not be as "sweet" as grocery store bought. The Kosher certified pastries, cookies etc. are made in the old world tradition and are exactly as they should be- as they've always been. They are meant to be shared over steamy cups or coffee, tea and engaging conversation. When I arrived my relatives were all smiles awaiting what was in my bags/boxes.. happy to see me? or the pastry? LOL

The cases and shelves are fully stocked with cookies and breads, and off to one corner sits a refrigerated cased with Apple Tarts that seem to be beckoning. I was unsure if the tart was made at the bakery due to the packaging and label. But it looked good, so I grabbed them to go. I thought the tarts were delicious, not overly sweet with a nice texture. I'd look forward to eating these again. Alas there were no French Eclairs, my perennial favorite, and there could be a greater selection of pastries. That said, this is a great local spot to score some fresh bread or tasty treats!

This place fits the bill under both categories! Many years ago, before I moved to Worcester, my friend made me follow an Instagram account that was basically carb porn. Day after day, I'd check out their bizarre and scrumptious cupcake flavors, fantasizing about the day that I'd make it there. Back then, Worcester felt like a such a pain to get to that it took me a while to get there. But when I finally found this tiny little place tucked away on Water St, it was like that moment in Willy Wonka where Charlie is aghast at all the sugary delights around him. It was every frosted fantasy come to life. I try not to go TOO often, because I don't want to be condemned to a life of stretchy pants. But when I do go, it's a serious struggle not to try every creative confection in their case. Their treats are INCREDIBLE.

That's don't impress me much!…read more That's the feeling I have. Queens Cup has been on my list for about 3 years. I admit, I am weak for frosting so I figured this had to be a win for me. Good location, tough parking if you can't get in their small lot and good luck scoring a table (i think there were only 2!) But that's not the reason for disappointment. It's the product. Magic cookie bars are one of my favorite sweet treats so I had to buy one (at a high cost of $7!) It's heavy and dense but the flavor... the crust was inconsistent. Too thick and too think at points. The taste... it tastes like an M&M (with a slight hint of coconut.) I could have saved myself a lot of money just buying a bag of M&M's. But I don't like M&M's! See the problem? (And there were small M&M's on the top which is ok but it was overpowering.) I also had to try something cupcake related right? My daughter got a huge slice of funfetti cake. I had one layer of the cake. I can share the frosting was thick and dense. I like it sweet and melts in my mouth. Thus was not that. The cake itself was dense too. I was my cake fluffy. Overall I was let down and Queens Cup is off the return list.

The frosting on the cake was so bitter that no one ate it at all! In addition, when I came to pick it up, they were just finishing the cake up and did not let it rest! When we started cutting it at the bday party, the cake was basically falling apart. I never had such a bad experience anywhere. I paid over $130 for the cake to end up throwing all frosting away. I called the same day and asked why frosting was so bitter, like metal taste, and at first, they hang up on me, and when I called back they said its because the color of frosting was red color! What a non sense excuse! They just added so much dye that it was impossible to eat!! It stained everything and I could still taste bitterness 2 hours after eating it. Also, sensative individuals could have gotten sick from it! You would think their bakers would try it first when they prepare mixture. I will definitely not going back again ever. Please be careful! In addition, they didn't put my decorations I brought for the cake a week before. Bunch of new people and bakers probably with no experience, but charging the same money. I would rather order from a grocery store next time for half a price and better quality.
