“ Always a busy bakery with tasty treats. Recently went in for their gingerbread men (decorated for Valentine's Day) which are a good option. Picked up a funfetti cupcake, which will be a quick treat I pick up again. Delicious cake batter and good ratio to icing as well. ”

“ Any one who would give Antoine's less than a 5.0 is wrong. So good So classic Lobster tails Eclairs ”

“ Best bakery in Boston. Used to get a cannoli here as a mid day break when I worked from home. ”

“ Been going there for years such a big variety of pastry, breads, and everything is very good. Their Italian cookies are fabulous. They have so many different Italian pastries. They have cannolis , rum cakes, which you can order there's so much there. I don't even know where to start to tell you about it. Just definitely gotta go in there and at the holiday time is a long wait because so many people go there it's like a little north of Newton right down on Washington Street and you can also go to Depasquales 'Sausage ,get some sausages. Which are homemade also so if you buy some fresh rolls here, you can make sausage subs also right on the corner of steamers if you would like some fish, they have a little Italian area right there all in one little block and all three places are fabulous ”

“ Well , back again as the Alpine cake addiction The blueberry muffin look tasty for breakfast and coffee... All good here again . Great staff, accommodating and Antoine there everyday keeping the place on its toes and quality products ”

“ Best pastries in Boston! Lobster tail is filled with the sweetest whipped cream/pastry cream, the pistachio cannoli is the best in town filled with the tastiest ricotta filling! The iced sugar cookie is a bit pricy, but worth it because of its beautiful decoration! The owner is so kind and friendly and the service is quick and convenient! ”

“ We were overwhelmed at the aromas, choices and helpful friendly staff at this local neighborhood Italian bakery. We bought all flavors and shells of cannolis, cinnamon horns (um, addictive), a lobster tail, and a thickly latticed cherry pie. Oh my goodness, be prepared for a sugar coma because you won't be able to stop at one bite. Best pastries and pie we've ever had; it beats anything we've had in the North End hands down. ”

“ This is a cozy little bakery in Newton. There are a good variety of pastries and cakes offered. You don't need to order cakes ahead of time, as there were several on display and available when we went. Staff were friendly, plenty of street (metered) parking. Decent prices and the things we tried were delicious. The cookies and cream cake looked good and tasted great. The lobster tail was of decent size and the cream filling was excellent and not overly sweet or bland. I'd come here again for cakes and pastries. ”

“ This is an amazing pastry shop! When we walked into the store, it was a literal treat for the senses. It smelled so good, and all the pastries looked delicious on display. I especially liked how they fill the cannoli to order. We got a variety of pastries to enjoy at home with family for the holidays; some cannoli, eclairs, scones, Whoopi' pies, etc.. everything tasted amazing. Even though there was a big line, it was worth the wait, the staff are very helpful and friendly. This is a great place for dessert whenever we are in the area! ”
