Hi! Just want to tell you how delicious my Italian cheese cake was.. my whole family thought it was the best they ever had! So yummy! And the cake was packed very well! Thank you! I give you 5 stars! read more

Thank you for the great care taken in packing and shipping our cookies to South Carolina! They were an amazing surprise at Mom's 95th birthday party. While our family has not been back to Brooklyn in 40 years-- you know when you have an Italian cookie, whether it is an authentic Circo's cookie or not. When you are licky enough "to know".....you know!! read more

The cookies were delicious. It reminded me of the Italian cookies I had as a child. They arrived nicely packed and maintained the freshness. The varied tastes, colors and quality of the cookies were awesome especially the pignoli. read more

I was craving good cannoli and wasn't in the mood to drive further into Brooklyn. After reading through reviews, I decided to stop by here. The bakery is pretty easy to find and I got there and actually found a parking spot right by it. It's pretty close to Williamsburg, and right near a lot of restaurants and stores. It's clean inside and they offer the usual pastries and cookies and breads. They also have gelato and sorbet. I honestly was just looking to get some cannoli (unfortunately they don't do mini cannoli by the piece but they said I could get six so I did that). The young woman helping me was very nice and I would definitely stop by again. I tried one of the cannoli on my way home, it was excellent. The shell was perfectly crunchy, and the cream was exactly as it should taste (smooth, buttery and a mild hint of nutmeg). If you're in the area, definitely stop by. read more

What a great Italian bakery! Two for one on the honey balls (aka struffoli), great linzer tarts, wonderful cakes and (black and white) cookies. The prices are good and the service is great. read more

Absolutely delicious and amazing flavor. What an old school pastry shop. Only wish you were closer. Highly recommend!!!!

Even though I mistakenly picked the wrong send date as soon as they knew they sent my order the next day. Everything was delicious as usual including the Rainbow cookies and the cassatelle. Even though my family we make them with ground chick peas, chocolate and cinnamon we still loved Circo's very tasty. read more

Best pastry shop in the city! Their cannolis are the best. Amazing service. Amazing ambience. Grew up going here

Went here as a kid. Now that I'm in TN, I ship the deliciousness to myself and friends around the country. read more

We ordered Rainbow cookies for a special occasion out of the area. The cookies stood out with their vibrant color and even better, their taste was unmatched! They were gone within minutes. We love ordering from Circo's! They remind us of begin back in NYC. Great people to order e and go in see the bakery in person. You will love it! read more

I cant believe I never thought to leave a review on one of my top 3 bakeries in NYC ! Circos has been a go to for all my last minute cake orders . I use to get one every year for my eldest god baby (whos now 16 and doesn't like cake) so I decided to continue this tradition for my youngest god baby who absolutely LOVES circos cake (his mom too) Their cakes are light, the frosting is never over sweetened and the flavors never disappoint. This year we went for a chocolate strawberry and banana mini cake and it was delicious . I also ordered their honey comb for the office and they loved It (only made during the holiday season) I pray this place keeps their door opened for many more years to come . We love it here ! read more

I ordered zeppole and sfingi for St. Joseph's Day, and they were supposed to arrive two days later. They did not arrive until five days later. It was the fault of UPS. When I emailed Circo's, Anthony called me himself and apologized and sent me a whole new order. This is such a respectable and respectful business. I so appreciate them. The pastries are always well packed and delicious. read more

A buddy of mine shipped a box of rainbow cookies over to me -- I've never been to NY, let alone had a rainbow cookie. The cookies arrived fresh in a box and were phenomenal.I demolished them within two days - they never stood a chance. read more

The rainbow cookies were fantastic. Unfortunately the 2 lbs of sandwich cookies were crushed, but they still tasted delicious.

Great bakery and amazing customer service. They went out of their way to make sure my Christmas order was delivered on time even though it was a pretty last minute order & the rainbow cookie cheesecake was very well received read more

Reviews for Circo's are senseless ! There is nothing you could buy that isn't fresh and absolutely delicious. The Savoiardi are definitely old school. They bring back memories and flavors of years ago. We love them!!! read more

I decided we were taking the drive over to Circo's. I was never there but I follow them on instagram. I saw a very funny video they did with Mario's meat and deli so I decided it's time. You walk in and for me it immediately brought me back to old time stores. You smell bread baking before you open the door..like heaven's gate opens up... but it's the best smell in the world ok! I bought two cannoli, a slice of cheese cake, a lemon meringue tart, two apple turnovers and my Trump cookie, . Now my husband is the rainbow cookie lover, I am not. I AM NOW! These are so good, not over almondy (is that a word?) cakey, you get the raspberry jam and it's not just a thin little layer. Nice layer of chocolate on top, absolutely delicious! Lord help me I also ate one of the apple turnovers after our next stop. I love the pastry, good filling not too sweet and some how not heavy. I live in an area where there are plenty of Italian pastry stores to choose from. Circo's is definitely worth the drive across Brooklyn and I will definitely be back. This store is clean, sales people are very nice and so is the owner. Circo's is 80 years old, you have to be doing something right to be around that long! Go get a cannolo you'll thank me read more

Since COVID hit, my household has been ordering a lot more than usual and now it has ventured into food from all over the country! My mom came across Circo's Pastry Shop because she knows how much I love Italian cookies. She ordered the Rainbow Cookies, Assorted Butter Cookies and the Nutella Cookies. I am seriously addicted to the Rainbow Cookies. The flavor is so good and I love how moist they are! The Assorted Butter Cookies are just like I remember from when I was little and my Nonna Tin used to have them all the time. And come on, you doesn't love Nutella? Even just eating it straight out the jar, am I right or am I right? The cookies from this place just scream childhood for me and I didn't know how much I needed them in my life right now. I also need to make it a point to shout out Anthony who personally called my mom all the way in California to let her know he was going to send the cookies out on a specific day so that they wouldn't sit at the post office all weekend and also didn't charge for the extra shipping. That's some great customer service! Thanks Circo's - and just know that you made some Italians on the West Coast really happy this week! We'll be ordering again very soon! read more

The Best rainbow cookies ever! This is the fifth time I'm ordering them to be shipped to New Jersey... absolutely love them!

Great Italian bakery. I picked up an assortment of cookies for a party. The ones I tried were all great. Rainbow cookie stood out as a great pick. Good variety. Pricey at nearly $50 for the small tray. read more

Order these twice a year they are the best they don't have them in Florida ordered others from another place tossed them in the garbage

The eclairs are bursting with fresh yellow custard and just the right amount of belgian chocolate on top, The sfoyadells are crispy and perfect, the cannolis are perfection. The cookies tastes like they were baked this morning. I can't say enough about this wonderful bakery. Fresh, delicious quite simply the best. read more

I'm sure their pastries are very good. That said, I tried to order 6 pastries from them but aside from the price being $42.00, the shipping alone was $81.00. That would be a total excluding tax of $123.00. Outrageous! I live in south Georgia and understand it would cost a bit more to ship next day. But I also order live lobsters from Maine, shipped next day and pay less than half for shipping. Either they add a surcharge to ship or they don't have an arrangement with a shipping provider. Either way, I would NEVER pay that much for 6 pastries. I'm looking at making my own now. read more

2 years ago got 6 cannolis for $21.00. Yesterday ordered 6 cannolis, paid $42. $ 7 per cannoli. Are they joking. I get cannoli on Becker st for $3.75 all day. Rip off joint read more

Circo's has the best pastry and an amazing family environment! I been going there since as long I could remember! I used to live a few blocks away! I can't go to family functions without driving 30 mins back to Circo's to pick up pastries. You can't go wrong with anything in the shop! read more

My daughter, Melissa loved the taste of the cookies. However, your packaging leaves a lot to be desired. Perhaps putting them in a box with NO ROOM TO MOVE AROUND! Many were squished or just crumbs. Also, may I suggest a FRAGILE LABEL on outside of shipping box. Who knows how they are tossed around during their travels. Thanks, her Mom read more

A wonderful long standing neighborhood bakery. It has been around so long for a reason! I love going to the dog park nearby and swinging by for a fresh cannoli or fruit tart, both of which I recommend! My favorite however are their Italian Butter Cookies, which come assorted in a 1lb box. Various light, buttery cookies dippedmm in chocolate or sandwiches with jam, and there are always 2-3 Italian rainbow cookies included as well, which are simply a delight! read more
