After having read several reviews about this establishment my wife and I decided to go there for lunch today. Delicious sandwiches that we each brought home half. The bread, everything was delicious. Great service that you can see makes you feel welcome. The café has ten tables and was perfect to tuck into our lunch!

Amazing cannoli's the scent inside was so amazing I have to come back for a sandwich!

Meatball sub on fresh bakes roll amazing

Sandwiches are so good. Amazing pastries as well. This is our second time stopping in and will continue each visit.

We made our way here after hearing a lot of chatter online with plenty of people recommending this bakery. I never knew it was here, but my husband had seen it plenty of times but never stopped. We stopped in on an early Sunday afternoon looking to try their grinders (subs, hoagies etc for those not from these parts). I stayed with a traditional Italian and my husband ordered the Bomba panini (it's really not a panini, because it wasn't flat at all, but they told us that when we ordered). They told us we could have a seat in the cafe and they would bring it out to us when our sandwiches were ready. We wondered over to the cafe which is a short walk with shelves of all sorts of imported cooking staples to buy. The cafe has about 10 tables or so and they also have a coffee bar in there where you order coffees and such. They brought our sandwiches out and they were huge. My Italian was delicious and my husband said his Bomba was one of the best sandwiches he ever had (yay! I found another good place!). After we were done (I was stuffed) my husband got a piece of tiramisu and loved it, I also grabbed a bite and I had to agree it was great. We would have grabbed more baked goods to go, but it was extremely hot out and we weren't planning on going home for awhile (next time we'll bring a cooler!). Our 2 grinders, a bottle of water and the tiramisu came to $28. and change. We are definitely adding this to our list of great places to grab a quick bite!!

Eggplant Parm sub is awful. Just a mess of a sandwich with soggy eggplant parm broken up on bread. Italian sub was okay- not the best not the worst. Bread on both sandwiches was delicious. Also got some cookies but noticed that quite a few pastries/cookies looked like store bought and unpacked onto a tray to look home made. The rainbow cookies are absolutely just unpackaged from the cake bites brand :(

Very neat little market and bakery, awesome subs / grinders with freshly baked rolls and premium meats. Cozy interior that smells like Italian cookies. Staff was great!

5/5 every single time! Sandwiches are huge and meats are fresh. Very high quality ingredients are used. Bread is also made in house. Desserts are highly underrated but so much better than the other Italian bakeries in Worcester. A must try!!

I had an amazing chicken cordon blu sandwich , it had lots of flavor, nice tender chicken and all fresh ingredients. Portions are large for the price. Very reasonable !

Driving home from Boston to NYC, on the highway and I asked my son to find us a place for a breakfast sandwiches about 20 minutes from where we were. Walked in and thought "mom and pop spot, could use a facelift". Well, after I ate the food, I could care less about the decor!!!!! WOW. Fresh made bread daily!! Thought a couple egg sandwiches and a coffee and we were good, until I saw that mound of Italian meat staring at me!!!!! I went Italian combo, but with fresh mutz instead of provolone. Dont judge me, I love fresh mutz!!!! It was amazing. Son went with eggplant parm hero and daughter had Mediterranean chicken sandwich. They were all phenomenal. And now the good stuff!!!! The rainbow cookies were good, as good as most places. But the lobster tail pastry, stuffed with custard/cream mix was outstanding!!!! The baklava was great. The cannoli cake was excellent. If this was within 25 miles of home, I would drive here for lunches and pastries. Absolutely. Family owned and operated. Very friendly. Mangia!!!!!! read more

This is far the best Italian sand-which you can get in central MA or Worcester. The bread is what makes it, super fresh, chewy, every bite is amazing. I probably would add a bit of vinegar as they only have the oregano oil but 10/10 for me. Will be returning read more

Got the Meatball grinder and an Italian (couldn't make up my mind) The meatball was amazing, from the perfectly toasted bread to the melted provolone on top of the delicious meatballs, can't be beat. Quickly became my favorite meatball in Worcester and that's saying something. The Italian looks great, saving that for dinner..... read more

And holy wow, absolutely amazing. Besides the fresh deli choices, there's so much else to choose from! Bomb baked goods, cheeses and cured meats that would be great for charcuterie boards. And a bunch more! On a bit of a time crunch so couldn't check it all out. So remember,palmas- Italian, extra hots. *sandwich wasn't around long enough for a pic* read more

My caprese salad was not to my satisfaction. Very disappointed. No fresh basil. There was only 1/2 cup shredded lettuce you would put on a sandwich and the tomatoes were not local or fresh and two out the four had a large core in the middle. The chicken and mozzarella cheese was good as was the balsamic dressing but overall I was very disappointed. It didn't even come with a piece of bread. Never again. read more

Service is wonderful and if you have the time to sit in and have a meal, do try to. It's very small, very casual and feels like having the best lunch you ever had at your aunties house. As mentioned it's rarely quiet in there so take out is best overall. I recommend calling ahead for sliced deli meats or things like that as they really appreciate that. If you ever see the cherry cobbler in the fridge do not skip it - you'll regret that. Here's the inside tip - there is not a better Caesar salad with chicken this side of the Mississippi.

A menu board is posted over the order counter and two soft drink coolers to choose a bottled beverage from are next to the cashier. The menu offers a variety of sandwiches, salads and soups. There are a lot of sauces you can add to your sandwich if the menu doesn't specify what condiments are included. You can also make your sandwich a 'platter' if you want to add fries, onion rings and coleslaw to your sandwich. I ordered the roast beef and asked for horse radish sauce. There was a *lot* of sauce on this sandwich. So much so, that was all I could really taste so I'm not sure if I actually like their roast beef or not. I should have asked if I could get it 'on the side' I suppose. Live and learn. From what I could see under the sauce, the roast beef is cooked very rare. It was difficult to chew through and with all that sauce it made for a very messy meal. We ate in their dining room which is a small, pleasant space with lots of old photos of Worcester. The napkins available at the table are kind of useless. They smear the mess, they don't mop it up. I used a LOT of napkins trying to keep tidy while eating my sandwich. The fries were very good when hot. Crispy outside, fluffy inside. The coleslaw was almost without flavor. Salt and pepper are on the table. You're going to want those. Just watch that salt shaker, it comes out FAST! There is one restroom for all guests at the back, past the kitchen. It's clean and in good working condition.

This time, I took advantage of their vegetarian signatures section which was very much appreciated for my dietary preferences. Ain't nobody got time to wade through an entire menu to find something they can eat. I ultimately settled on the grilled veggie pocket and requested, IN ALL CAPS FOR EMPHASIS, no onions and mushrooms PLEASE. We also ordered their mac and cheese to share. I'll start with the good. The mac and cheese was DELICIOUS. It's covered in breadcrumbs and croutons, which is an interesting addition. The sauce is creamy and the noodles were a touch al dente. It was just as good when we warmed up the leftovers the following day. Unfortunately they completely disregarded my request for no onions or mushrooms. If they were unable to do that because the mix is pre-made, which is actually kinda gross as I imagine refrigeration is required and this defeats the purpose of "grilled", they could have done what other places have done which is CALL ME. What if I had an anaphylactic allergy? Fortunately, I don't, but was faced with the decision point of either just not having anything to eat other than a shared portion of mac and cheese or ripping through the pita and sifting through each of the vegetables individually to remove the onions and mushrooms which was EXCRUCIATING to do because the onions were tiny strips. Sigh. There was also no other component besides grilled veggies in a sauce in a pita and the bottom of the pita was soggy. Fuck this place. I will never order from here again.

She tells me the pancakes are "the best she's ever had." Very fluffy and flavorful. I had the Pickle Barrel Omelette. It has sausage, feta, tomatoes, onions and peppers. Mine was average, at best. The home fries needed seasoning, badly. The omelette was good. Mainly carried by the feta. We did agree on the coffee: not favorably. It "delivered the goods," but it wasn't very good. It seemed watery.

The condiments are perfectly balanced, and the ingredients are so fresh that a simple sandwich turns into something incredibly flavorful. The women working here are absolute sweethearts. On my last visit, I called back three separate times to tweak my toppings, and each time, they were so kind and accommodating. By the third call, we laughed about it together--it was never a bother to them, just another example of their friendly and welcoming service. The space itself is small, so it's more of a grab-and-go spot than a dine-in experience, but that just adds to its charm. The efficiency of the service and the cozy, tucked-away feel make it the perfect little sandwich spot. Highly recommend! The sandwich I got this last visit was grilled chicken, tomato, spinach, lettuce, American cheese, and balsamic dressing with a side of hots.

Loved stopping by this shop to get my coffee fix. I definitely wasn't looking forward to hotel…read morecoffee or another Starbucks run, so I was excited to find this spot in Worcester, even on a busy day. Having a private parking lot made it an easy and convenient stop. The drinks were excellent and not overly sweet, just the perfect balance. We ordered the Vietnamese Iced Coffee and the Mia with calamansi lime, and both were fantastic. I'd happily order the same drinks again before trying anything else on the menu. The Vietnamese coffee uses the traditional Robusta beans, while the Nuoc Mia was super refreshing with just the right amount of calamansi citrus. Pro Tips: - Private parking lot located behind the shop. - Authentic Vietnamese coffee brewed using the traditional slow drip method. - Casual, welcoming atmosphere with a handful of tables, making it a great spot to get some work done.

This was a first visit to the restaurant and I have to say I was impressed. The ambiance is very "Denny's-like" (and it is a popular breakfast place), but the dinner was a little on the sophisticated side what with the restaurant offering, among other things, Baked Alaska for a dessert choice. Baked Alaska is not all that hard to make, but so few restaurants offer it and the ones that do are usually a littel up-scale and eclectic. This is definitely a " do not judge a book by its cover" establishment. Food and service were both great and the price was very reasonable.

Not the best crepe flavor but still decent. I got an iced caramel latte and that was probably the best coffee I've had at a local breakfast joint. It's the kind of place where you line up to order at the register then sit down & wait for your food. We came right at 11am on a Sunday and the place was unusually (according to a friend who goes often) packed. I applaud the 2 workers I saw who got the line down as fast as they could. The woman on the register was also making the coffees/teas and there was one man making all the crepes. One weird thing to note because as a mom, I always like to know: at least one of the bathrooms had a changing table which I appreciate so much. I think I'd definitely come again & just hope it's not busy. Might try a savory crepe next time!

I had such a great experience at Palma's Bakery! Their Italian subs are seriously some of the best around--fresh bread, high-quality ingredients, and packed with flavor. You can tell they put care into everything they make. What really sets this place apart is the variety of international food items they carry. It's such a unique spot where you can grab an amazing sub and also explore different specialty products you won't find at a typical store. The shop is clean, well-organized, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. Definitely a must-visit if you're in the area! read more
