Great prices. Small but still a good sized selection. The assortment of 50 cent cookies is phenomenal in this economy. I went there 3 times in 3 days while visiting the area. read more

Now one place I can't be in the Tri-Town and not stop at... The Pastry Box. Still the same familiar staff, sweetest ladies ever!!! Aromas were on point and they were loading up the cases!! Things moved and it's gotten a little face lift but the place is still a homey vibe immediately when you open the door!!! Cookies are a must, I got 4 of them all and a few treats to share!!! Carrot cake is my top tier for cake, so I always grab it if it's an option!! I did a cinnamon roll, raspberry danish, and elephant ear... all completed my perfect visit!! They had just opened and were wonderful to chat with!! This is a GEM of the area!! read more

My cousin came to visit yesterday. She lives in Plainville. She brought a variety of your pastries. My husband and I said these are truly some of the best pastries we've had in a long time. Thank you! read more

Excellent variety of desserts. Great service. Reasonable, great quality. Very accommodating for cake ideas. They did a chocolate cake for my daughter's woodland baby shower theme. Looked exactly like a tree stump/log from my photo. Perfect! read more

We've gotten custom birthday cakes here for my son every year for four years, always themed by request after some character from a children's book or cartoon series. All four cakes have been beautiful and delicious, and the staff has been friendly and easy to work with. read more

The Pastry Box consistently has delicious cakes, pies and breakfast coffee cakes for a good price. I recommend everything I've ever had there, but especially the blueberry coffee cake with the crumble on top and the carrot cake. Be warned though, one slice of cake can feed 2 or 3 adults! read more

The lemon mousse bomb is absolutely delicious! You have to try it. The mousse is ever so slightly charred, and the rich lemon flavor is perfectly complemented by the tasty crust inside of a little pan tin. It's truly wonderful. The service - not so much. The employee was not overly explanatory or friendly when simply trying to find out what this other pastry is...all I can surmise is that it's 2 powdered donuts with a raspberry and cream filling. The donuts and raspberry flavoring are both nice but the cream is excessive and not very flavorful. This is a 4 star establishment that gets 3 stars due to a poorly engaged employee not sufficiently helping out a first time customer. I'll try them again and may up it to 4 stars if the employees are more helpful. read more

The service is always good, the desserts are delicious. The variety of cookies is always a good go to dessert for a party. I've never had any complaints read more

Got some snacks to try and boy they were good. Everything from cake slice to muffin. It was all fabulous. We will be back for more

This is a little hole in the wall bakery in a back little strip mall off 152. My daughter picked a variety of cookies, which were delicious. They are perfect consistency, not too soft, not too crunchy. This cake, I almost wish I didn't know about it. This was SO moist and flavorful! The staff was very helpful and friendly, prices are great and they have a lot of options. Will definitely stop in again! read more

Eclairs and ring ding cakes are our staples for celebrations! Would highly recommend!

They made the most amazing unicorn cake for my GFs 1st Sober Bday! Another bakery told me it was too late to order something like that and that's how I ended up here! Picked up the cake I wanted ,at a perfect price, right on time and it was beautiful. Saw some matching cupcakes while they were wrapping it up and I grabbed those too! The cake & cupcakes were a hit! Wonderful service, products and value! read more

The Pastry Box is a great little bakery to satisfy the sweet tooth. Tucked in a long strip plaza, The Pastry Box offers a nice display and good selection of individual pastries, danishes, muffins, cakes, pies, cookies, and more baked goods. They also offer custom cakes and pastries for all occasions. The prices here are very reasonable (most individual items $0.95-$2.50 each) for the good quality sweets offered. The service is very good and helpful. I've had their Chocolate Torte (very rich), Apple Strudel, Carrot Cake, Elephant Horns, and Lemon Meringue Tarts, all very good desserts I've enjoyed with my after dinner coffee drinks.

I went in because I was sad. I bought carbs and sugar and made myself temporarily better. I tried several different cookies, some fancy bar that I don't remember the name of, cheesecake brownie, and chocolate mouse cup. Everything was delicious! read more

So I didn't read the little sign that they had posted on the wall behind the counter that said no credit card accepted under $10 that's my bad. However you would have thought I committed an international crime when I asked for a cup of coffee and a muffin and tried to use a credit card after she gave it to me ! She said I will not make an exception and I will take these back from you right now . Grumpy old lady . I won't be racing back . read more

Decent local bakery but nothing special . My husband came home with a huge box of pastries for around $10! Nothing wowed me. The cheesecake brownie was pretty good but the lemon bar was not what I was expecting. The lemon filling was runny and thin instead of thick and curd-like. Chocolate mousse cake was OK but I've eaten better chocolate cake at Gregg's,. The chocolate cupcake wasn't topped with buttercream frosting so I didn't even bother trying it. I'm not compelled to go back here, which is a shame because there aren't enough local bakeries in the area! read more

Absolutely disgusting... purchased a box of cookies tasted like the refrigerator! The cream horns and puffs had no taste ! Try some vanilla! Won't be visiting this place again... such a disgrace read more

Great local bakery. Very clean and always tasty goodies. Pleasant staff.

Pastry Box I stand corrected! The Unicorn Cake you made for my granddaughters 7th birthday was nothing less than amazing! The creativity and artistry was perfection. Usually the taste is sacrificed for the design but not this cake! It was scrumptious! read more

A very yummy little bakery in Plainville, my boyfriend and I like to stop in here every couple of weeks for a breakfast or dessert treat. All of their breakfast-type items are delicious (my favorite is the Cinnamon Strudel Coffee Cake) and their regular desserts are amazing as well. I've sampled their Peanut Butter Finger, Cheesecake Brownie, Congo Bar, and carrot cake, and all are great. The Cheesecake Brownie is huge. It doesn't look nearly as big in the glass case as it actually is - it's layers of brownie (obviously), cheesecake, more brownie, and then what looks like Oreo-ish bits on top. It's delicious, but SO filling! Their carrot cake is the best I've ever had - nice and moist with really yummy cream cheese frosting. Plus, they usually have seasonal items. When we were in there on Saturday, they had jack-o-lantern cookies as well as cupcakes with candy corn on top. During the summer they had mocha- and creamsicle-flavored cupcakes. Overall, extremely cheap pastries at an incredibly good price. If you're ever in the area, I suggest stopping by there (and North End Deli, a few stores down in the same plaza), you will not be sorry! read more

The Pastry Box is a fabulous little bakery tucked in a strip of stores in Man-Mar Plaza in Plainville right off the intersection of 106 and 152. I basically cut through the little strip between Dunkin' Donuts and Honey Dew and they're down a bit on the left. We have purchased all of our birthday cakes, hostess goodies and personal "prizes" there since this wonderful bakery opened. The staff is delightful and knowledgeable about all of their items. The "family favorites" are the Pie Crusts, Frosted Brownies, Cinnamon Strudel Coffee Cake, Half Moons, Congo Bars".....and I could go on and on. Their cakes are moist and tasty and candles can always be popped on for an impromptu birthday cake. They do take orders in advance for special birthday cakes. Just so you are prepared, they do not take credit cards. They have been taking checks, but I would check on that. The prices are excellent and you get a lot of goodness for your money. Suffice to say, we are frequent flyers and always look forward to buying a cup of their coffee to go so we can eat a Pastry Box Goody in the car. You never know what interesting new items might be there......cookies to go with an upcoming holiday, cupcakes, etc. Check it out. We've referred a lot of people; everyone has been delighted with their pastries. read more

The staff here is very nice, good selection and prices. I liked the brownie and apple turnover ok. Everything else, not so much. The raspberry turnover was not as soft as the apple and I didn't love the jam in the turnover and shortbread cookie. Not terrible but not great. The chocolate rasberry truffle piece was also not great. A good dessert should always make you want more than one bite. Then I got what seems to be a bismark with spoiled pastry cream. It had an immediately off taste to it, the cream by itself. That definitely went in the trash, 1 star. There are better bakeries in the area so not worth a return visit unfortunately. I finished the brownie and apple turnover, everything else was tossed. read more

A solid bakery. We'd always get birthday cakes at the Pastry Box when I was a kid, and they were consistently very good. I always liked the pre-made, fancier cakes more than the standard, made-to-order ones. My only beef is that we went there for years and years, multiplied by 5 birthdays, AKA 4-5 cakes per year, and they never asked "Hey, you're pretty loyal customers - can I get your name and address so we can send you an occasional coupon?" or said "Here are a couple of pastries on the house, just because we appreciate your business." It could be a place where they know your name and make you never want to go anywhere else. Alas, it's not quite that. I actually live closer to PB now than I did when I was growing up, and my fiancée and I occasionally get pastries there. We don't really order birthday cakes from anywhere any more. If we did, we'd probably get them from PB occasionally (but not exclusively). read more

Tried a few different pies for Christmas and was not impressed. The apple pie was soo bland! There was def enough cinnamon but I couldn't taste any sugar at all. The crust was bland too. I liked the chocolate cream but it was very hard to cut thru the crust. The lemon meringue had a tasty filling but the meringue part kinda liquified as you ate it which was strange. Overall I wouldn't pay for these pies. Local grocery stores make a better pie. Glad it wasn't my money that was wasted. read more

I went to The a Pastry Box to buy a Birthday cake for my husband. The woman who waited on me was very friendly and helpful. I ended up with a decadent, four layer chocolate cake with raspberry filling. The cake was amazing...rich but not overly sweet, flavorful and very moist. Nine people each had a slice and all nine people loved the cake! Kudos to The Pastry Box! read more

Very disappointed. Staff was SO rude, basically ignored us and had no customer service skills. I like to support small local businesses but sadly won't be back due to the lack of friendliness and rudeness re credit card limits. read more

Great selection of traditional as well as some creative and unexpected treats! I've never had their cakes, but as a former baker myself, I can tell you they really have some great items made by people who care about what they do. A great way to spend a rainy day with the kids along with Annie's Book store next door... read more

I can't believe I have not previously written a review for the Pastry Box. I have never been disappointed by the sweets I've purchased here. And by this point, I think I have likely tried everything. And even after eating cannoli all over Italy, our family regards their cannoli as the best we have had here in the US. read more

The staff is super friendly and very patient. They helped us pick out many of birthday cakes for the family.. best cake I have ever had! They are so imaginative with the flavors and the cakes are perfectly portioned for a birthday get together. We always get the: "Where did you get this cake?" We will keep coming back for more! You won't be disappointed! The shelves are always filled with delicious baked goods.. you might have to take a good minute before deciding! Yum! read more
