    Chocolate roll, vanilla cream cannoli, chocolate cream cannoli.

    I haven't been back in Boston for many years and was pleasantly surprised to find a Mike's pastry in assembly row. I had to stop and get some cannolis and also tried a chocolate roll. It wasn't busy at all, and the cannolis were piped immediately, so the pastry was crispy and delicious. The chocolate roll was way too sweet and disappointing. Unlike the location in the north end, this one was very calm and almost empty on Sunday afternoon and it also took a credit card!

    If you want Mikes Pastry but want to avoid the North End parking situation, this location is an alternative. Located in Assembly Row with ample parking or access to the Orange Line. Here at Mikes you can get their famous cannolis, or other decadent pastries if you wish. Plus this location takes card! I love their Florentine cannolis although they did go up in price, now $10 :( Little pricey but yummy.

    Cannoli!

    Lady who helped us was hilarious and helpful! Cannoli- five stars. Fantastic. Not too sweet. Huge. Creamy. I got the traditional one. The pistachio cookies were so disappointing. Last time I had them was 2001. Now they are soo sweet they are inedible for me.

    Mike's Pastry is one of Boston's most renowned Italian bakeries. Every time I go to Boston, I always try to stop at Mike's Pastry for their cannolis. I had no idea that Mike's Pastry has expanded beyond its historic North End location to Harvard Square, Somerville's Assembly Row, and TD Garden. The Somerville's Assembly Row location is right by the office I was visiting so I had to stop by and grab some cannolis before taking the MBTA Commuter Rail home. Mike's Pastry is spacious and there are mouthwatering pastries in the display cases. On the wall, there is a photo of the different cannoli flavors. I chose the pistachio and peanut butter for my husband and the oreo and chocolate chip cannoli for myself. They are $7 each. Mike's Pastry is known for its iconic white box with bright blue lettering tied with string. The cannolis were as good as I remembered it. I really enjoyed the oreo and chocolate chip cannoli. The cannoli shell is crispy and the cannoli filling is so creamy and filled to the max. There are some tables inside and outside to enjoy your treats. The staff member that assisted me was very friendly and helpful.

    Dubai Chocolate cannoli

    The young man behind the counter was very helpful.... place was clean and very welcoming... I got the Dubai chocolate cannon, my daughters got chocolate cheesecake and chocolate cake.

    When I think pastry shop I envision a cute cafe to sit and sip some coffee and indulge on a treat. However this pastry shop is just a grab and go situation. Prices seemed average for boston. Tried 2 diff cookies (one sprinkle, one black & white). Disliked both. The sprinkle cookie had no flavor and was dry. The b&w cookie was more like a cake. Not sure how the other desserts are, but don't recommend the cookies.

    box was empty so this was the photo for the review

    wow every cannoli I have ever had before was erased from my mind because these were so so so delicious!!

    Not gonna lie. I was like, what's the big deal about a cannoli? But I like trying things I haven't before, and everything I read says to try Mike's Pastry. Knowing it was a touristy thing, I decided to try it anyway. I Door Dashed them. I ordered 3 so I can try a variety: pistachio, hazelnut and espresso. I didn't realize how big they are... After my second attempt, I still won't be able to finish, but then again, I did order 3 lol All three of them were delicious, but I think the espresso was my favorite. I'm a huge fan of cannolis, apparently. Absolutely delicious and creamy on the inside. Stop by Mike's if you get a chance and get a cannoli. You won't regret it!

    Pecan Caramel Cheesecake
    Lena L.

    While Mikes Pastry is known for their cannolis, I did not get the cannoli most recently. Went in just to browse but the cheesecakes caught my attention. They looked amazing so I had to get one, ending up picking the Pecan Caramel Cheesecake. While it's a little pricey, the slice was very generous. For me, I don't prefer my desserts too sweet, and this cheesecake hit the spot! Was flavorful but was not overly too sweet. Could still taste the cream cheese without being overpowered by sugar. Overall, if you'd like to avoid the lines in the North End, take the T for 3 stops to assembly for a crowd free experience of Mike's! I'm already eyeing the Brownie Cheesecake and will treat myself soon!

    i stopped in to the famous Mike's Pastry post dinner, and tried their dipped peanut butter cookie. when i tell you it's one of the best cookies i've ever had, it is sooo good! it tastes like a mix of peanut butter and stella doro cookies. i would have been just as happy without the chocolate dip. of course, they have an assortment of amazing desserts on the larger side, from cannolis to lobster tails to cakes and everything in between. everything is delicious. ambiance: 3/5 food: 5/5 service: 4/5 mike's pastry: 4/5

    Peanut butter cannoli
    Lizzie R.

    The bakery itself was clean and bright. The workers weren't super friendly, though. I wasn't bothered by it too much but we were visibly confused since it was our first time here. We were expecting to see the cannoli in the display case and there weren't any. We had to ask more questions that we should have to be able to place our order. The cannoli itself were delicious. I wasn't a huge fan of the Nutella - it was just okay & didn't have enough Nutella flavor for my liking. But the peanut butter?! Oh, I would 100% get that again. They're big cannoli - you can have it for yourself or share & be equally satisfied. We took our to- go and brought them home. They should be eaten same day or next day (even that's a little wilty) because the cannoli shell does get soggy. I would come again especially now knowing you just need to order from the menu board & not expect to see the cannoli before ordering. Hopefully the flavor you want is available!

    Florentine Cannoli
    Madi P.

    Got this recommendation from a friend and the cannoli was quite delicious! I got the Florentine cannoli and it was really good! Only tried one though so I can't speak on the other flavors or other baked goods they have. Cool little vibe inside! It's cash only tho so keep that in mind!

    Oreo cannoli; raspberry
    Alex F.

    We heard about this bakery even before coming to Boston and needed to try it out. They have multiple locations, but the one in Assembly Row was the most convenient for us. The Plain Cannoli was light and not too sweet. The Raspberry was also not too sweet and had a healthy serving of raspberry jam. Despite having no customers at that time, the staff wasn't incredibly friendly. Instead of giving us recommendations, they were visibly annoyed that we were trying to figure out which ones we were going to buy. The pastries were good despite the service, so definitely give it a try.

The croissant was excellent; dough was perfect, not overly sweet. Tons of pistachio on the inside. It's topped with a hefty amount of what tastes a bit like cream cheese (but it's probably something else, that's just what it reminds me of). Highly recommend trying it. The black sesame latte came recommended by the staff member. Also very good, nice unique flavor and made with in house syrup! I will say though, it was a little bit gritty as you got to the end of the latte. Theres also an area to sit outside and inside. All in all, an amazing spot that I'd love to visit again!

But the true jewel of La Saison is the Kuku Sabzi on Sea Salt Focaccia. It is unbelievably good. What makes La Saison even more special are the owners, Sarah and Soheil. Their warmth, creativity, and genuine care for their customers shine through in everything they do. You can feel their heart in every pastry and bread and every interaction. La Saison has become one of those rare places that feels both special and comforting, and we're grateful it's part of the neighborhood.

Located on Dunster Street, the shop is designed for efficiency, with a straightforward layout that keeps the line moving even during busy hours. There are a few counter seats inside, but it's primarily a grab-and-go destination where most people leave carrying one of the bakery's signature string-tied pastry boxes. The cannolis are the main reason to visit, and they certainly live up to their reputation in terms of size. The classic chocolate chip cannoli is generously filled from end to end with a rich, sweet ricotta cream, while the crisp shell provides just the right amount of crunch. If you're looking for something a little different, the Florentine cannoli is an excellent choice. Its honey-nut shell adds an extra layer of texture and a subtle caramelized flavor that pairs beautifully with the creamy filling. Beyond the cannolis, the bakery offers an impressive selection of Italian pastries, cookies, cakes, and other desserts. The lobster tails are another popular option, with flaky layers surrounding a rich cream filling, and the display cases are filled with enough variety to make it difficult to choose just one item. Prices are a bit higher than your average neighborhood bakery, but the portions are generous enough that many pastries can easily be shared. Service is quick and efficient, with staff focused on keeping the line moving throughout the day. Since seating is limited, it's worth taking your pastries to nearby Harvard Yard or the Charles River, where you can enjoy them at a more relaxed pace. Mike's Pastry may be best known for its North End flagship, but the Cambridge location delivers the same oversized cannolis and classic Italian desserts in a much more convenient setting. Whether you're craving the original chocolate chip cannoli or one of their many other pastries, it's an easy stop whenever you're spending time around Harvard Square.

Mike's has an outstanding selection of pastries and gelato but the star here is the carrot cake. We ordered the Boston Cream pie as well and while it is delicious it is the carrot cake that carries the day. Any visit to Boston demands a stop at Mike's for the carrot cake!

I bought the banana cream for a work event and a few minis to take home for me and my hubby. The banana cream was good-admittedly, it was more on the sweeter side than I expected.
