    What a treat! I wish I was eating gluten because many tempting treats here. I got the peanut butter balls and an assortment of macarons because they were the gluten free options. They did not dissapoint. Friendly service. Clean tables. Easy and free parking structure. Cute Parisian/ European atmosphere.

    Coconut Italian soda

    This place was really cute! It's pretty small inside but with surprisingly a lot of seating. I got the coconut Italian soda w/ cream and it was quite refreshing! I also got the pistachio macaron and the lavender & honey macaron(I wish I got pictures). The pistachio has a subtle, sweet yet nutty filling. The lavender honey was more on the sweeter side with notes of lavender. I think the filling tastes like raw honey(love!). When my family and I went, it looked like only 1 person was working so please be patient if you can, we had a pretty large order and it took a couple minutes to bring out.

    This is a hidden gem in Salem. The atmosphere is homey and warm. The location is nice. The desserts are absolutely delicious, however a bit in the pricey side. The best deal on a grilled cheese and soup would be at this location. The soup is made from scratch and absolutely delicious. The employees are kind and welcoming. The owner is very friendly as well. Highly recommend. Cheers, enjoy!

    Cannoli, blueberry pastry

    I forgot what the blueberry pastry was called but it was good just too sweet for my liking. The cannoli filling was amazing but I didn't care for the shell. The workers weren't very attentive and we had to wait a bit until someone finally turned around and took our order. The address on Yelp is incorrect! Be sure to check their website for the correct address. We went to their old location and had to walk to their new one.

    The ambiance here is really cute and chill. There's so many delicious looking pastries to choose from. They also have biscuits and gravy , breakfast sandwiches, pizza, and coffee/tea to choose from. The cannolis are so good but they don't hold up if you don't eat them immediately. Macaroons have perfect crisp outer shell, although the maple pecan buttercream needed more mixing, I think because you could taste the sugar granules, they weren't well dissolved.overall, cool spot to come eat, work, and study.

    Excellent little bakery we visited after having dinner at Gambrettis next door. We ordered macrons, cannolis, waffle, and a danish. Most of the desserts were good, but I recommend eating them fresh and not taking them to go for hours later. The staff was not very friendly, but we did have a large group. The prices are a bit expense too.

    The service was great! I ordered a Ice Italian Redbull w/ cherry lime & vanilla. The drink was refreshing! The ambiance was welcoming and cool. Love the chess boards everywhere. Highly recommend for some good pastries!

    Storefront

    I currently utilize a coworking space in downtown Salem a couple times a week. Street parking in this area is free but limited to three hours per block from 8am-8pm. So around lunch time, I must move my car. I know, I know, #firstworldproblems, but it's really annoying! One day, I found a space right out front of Little Cannoli Bakery. I hadn't even known a bakery was in such close proximity, and what a way to cheer me out of my grumbly re-parking mood! Due to COVID, they currently are not allowing customers in shop. Instead, their treats are on display in cases pressed against the glass storefront. There are French macarons of every color, tarts, eclairs, napoleons, brownies, pies, cookies....well, you get the idea! They had a couple coffees available, and a menu for a few savory items, mostly breakfast sandwiches and individual pizzas. An employee takes your order, gathers your goodies, and off you go! Quite convenient. Of course, I had to get their namesake treat, though if there is a cannoli on offer, I'm always going to get it as I love them so. Thus, I've had my fair share and I'm ready to declare this the best one yet! They are fresh filled to order with one side dipped in pistachio dust, the other in chocolate chips. The shells are extraordinarily crispy, even more so as they are coated in a caramelized sugar crust. Whew! My rainbow cookie was dense, but moist. It had that familiar flavor all rainbow cookies have. I don't know how to describe it, except that it reminds me of boxed cake mix batter, but in a good way. Lastly, the dalmation cheesecake was not only adorably named, but absolutely delicious. Not too sweet + so plush and creamy. Prices felt a tad high though not enough to keep me away, and everything was wonderful so I'd say it's worth it. I'll certainly be back for more cannolis, and I desperately want to try the bag of giant chocolate dipped coconut macaroons!

You order at the counter and then you get a number to take with you and place at whichever seat you choose. Drinks and food both came out really quick. I tried the bees knees which had honey, lavender, rosemary and simple syrup with a dash of black pepper. I did not see nor taste the black pepper but I was a huge fan of this drink. It wasn't overpowering in any of the flavors and the rosemary sprig made it look so cute. I got the breakfast potato hash with no tomatoes and it was a delicious and filling breakfast. The potatoes were so good my group wouldn't stop helping themselves to them. I added some hot sauce as it was in the dryer side but still really good. I also tried the matcha coconut scone. It had a pretty matcha green color but it was hard to taste the matcha or coconut and it was quite dry. Service was quick and friendly. The inside is really beautiful and we couldn't help but do a little photoshoot, so many fun backgrounds! Things to note: Restroom shared with other businesses close by businesses and metered street parking only.

Which is a huge bummer because it's super cute inside, and it would appear to be very community based. The pastries were great though, we got the cruffin, salt & herb bagel with garlic schmear, one of the special sandwiches, a danish and the cinnamon cream cheese roll. All of those were great! The coffee was hit or miss for some of us; got a latte with raspberry and vanilla that was great. The matcha is mushroom based so I didn't feel like experimenting with that. The service was a bit odd because (among other things) when we got our drinks she didn't know which lattes were which, and when asked basically gave a IDK and left. Not sure with all the great coffee shops if I'd be running back here, but it definitely has potential!

One meal was enough to feed me all day, and the Spanish coffee I got was mixed perfectly.

Other reviews mention rude service staff, but my experience was the total opposite. I wish I could've gotten her name to give her a shout-out. :) I do have to mention the lack of parking. There were still empty tables when the parking lot was already completely full. There were maybe eight parking spots altogether, but that would be my only complaint.

House made of course so it's even better than the store bought stuff in my opinion because it tastes like actual chocolate. I ordered the filet minion chicken fried steak and it was cooked to perfection. So juicy inside and crispy but not like overly cooked crispy on the outside! Topped with a hot gooey layer of house made sausage gravy. The overall size of this steak was about as big as my face. To complement this enormous steak was eggs, a biscuit & some smashed Yukon potatoes..like they were literally small potatoes they just smashed which was really different to me because I've never seen that before. I also had to order the infamous cinnamon roll pancake I been seeing floating around on other people's reviews. IT IS A MUST.. and if you are ordering it to take home make sure you have a piece of it while it's still hot and fresh because that was to die for. I won't go more into detail about it you just have to try it. It will speak for its self. Overall the dinning experience was great! Servers were more than happy to get you whatever you need. We sat at the bar so y'all should try their drinks because they looked so good and the bartenders looked like they were having fun making them. The restaurant is a literal house and while charming it is small and packed inside and the parking lot is also really small so you may need to get there early or expect to park somewhere else in the streets. We got there an hour after they opened and it was only a 30 minute wait thankfully. Will be coming back again to try other menu items!
