La Luce Pastry Shop - Cousin with a crepe! - Bakeries Near Me - Dedham, Massachusetts

Great bakery. In the heart of Dedham Square, this spot has now had a few bakeries, yet La Luce sets a high standard and is really the only bakery in town. Guarino's in Norwood is the closest comparison, yet I haven't come to a conclusion of which I prefer. The owner here, used to work at White's Bakery over in Brockton, a place I have always wanted to go and drive by at least once a month at WB Mason, but never have gone in (but I will next month!). Anyway, for the manager, who was extremely friendly and kind, and extremely knowledgeable about SO many different cakes and other pastries I asked him about. Basically, he had everything and more (is that possible?), and the multiple treats I bought were all incredible, and incredibly tasty. Would definitely return. Another gem in Dedham Square. Highly suggested. 5 stars. read more

Not only will you be greeted by the friendliest, kindest, and most flattering words, but the aroma of freshly baked goods also hits you with that HELLO we all need each and every day! I bought a selection of the flakiest and tastiest croissants this morning - Turkey Bacon, Ham and Cheese, Chocolate, and plain. Nothing but goodness and again - baked fresh every day. Oh, and a giant chocolate cake for tonight's deserts for movie night. Buy wise, buy local, buy at La Luce! read more

I do not normally post negative comments BUT I was very disappointed on the craft of the cake I ordered for the price I paid. The carrot cake itself was delicious but the decorating was not what I expected it to be including the cracking of the frosting all the way to the event. Maybe more research should have been done on my part prior to ordering. I had specifically asked for dark blue and this was more like royal blue. Last picture is what I asked for but the baby blue being dark blue instead vs. what I got. read more

I am a regular customer, this bakery is excellent. I recently purchased and cake and there was a miscommunication on the size. The owner was extremely nice to deal with and went above and beyond to accomodate me. The cake was delicious. I highly recommend this bakery. read more

Great selection of delicious pastries reasonably priced. You can also order great fruit pies. Small seating area and outdoor seating weather dependent read more

Absolutely love this little gem in Dedham Square. I have bought an assortment of pastries for different get together and the are all top notch! The other morning I needed something for breakfast and stopped in to grab a croissant ..there were so many beautiful choices...couldn't decide between sweet and savory so I got the sausage and egg and a Nutella croissant ..that were so good I went back today for more..and one to share with my co-worker that had to listen to me rave about them ! read more

I love coming here. It's kind of an old time French pastry shop. Wide selection of pastries. Some of the best croissants in the Boston area. The crêpes are awesome. read more

Always our go-to place for desserts and Sunday morning pastry cravings! So fortunate to have this place in Dedham!

some of the pastry is delicious Some is stale Male servers could be more gracious read more

Best cakes and cupcakes, far and wide, order from La Luce. No matter where you are, if you want to order for special occasions La Luce will never disappoint. Call them for any and all special orders. Ordered 36 cupcakes this weekend. We added the figurines. So delicious, everyone asked where we got them! La Luce! In Dedham. Near Westwood, Medfield, Norwood, etc. read more

La Luce Pastry Shop - Best cupcakes in all of Boston suburbs. Cakes too. Not just pretty, delicious! - Bakeries Near Me - Dedham, Massachusetts

Ok products but the customer service is AWFUL. They don't make you feel welcome and act as if you're inconveniencing them when you walk in the door. I'm all set. read more

I picked up a wide selection of pastries and baked goods, including their apple turnover, raspberry turnover, lemon bar, chocolate decadence, fruit tart, and a cheese & spinach croissant. They were all just okay. Not terrible, but not particularly flavorful or delicious. read more

Above average pastries but the customer service needs work, they act like you're bothering them when you walk in. Service is not much better even if you call ahead. They talk to you like they're doing you a favor. Doing my best to support local shops during the pandemic, not sure if your continued attitude will fly in the long run. read more

Move over Crounut...there is something more amazing. This baker has taken merging breakfast pastries to a whole new level. Imagine a cross between a croissant and a cinnamon bun! It is called a Cinnamon roll but it is so much more. Just delicious. Having lived in Paris my expectations for croissant are very high, and they were not only met but exceeded. Many other confections are tasty but the Cinnamon Roll is just marvelous. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My first review was for a product they were trying when they were first opened. It was a cinnamon bun made of croissant dough, more in the shape of a muffin with bits of pistachio sprinkled on top. I went back remembering the delicious treat and wanted to get more. Now the cinnamon rolls are flat, dry and much less tasty. So sad. read more

I've been coming here for years. I absolutely love their croissants and crepes, i get my birthday cake from them every year.

Absolutely delicious and beautiful cakes and top-notch cooperative service. We've now come here twice for party cakes and will go no place else. LaLuce is a little more expensive than grocery bakeries, but there's absolutely no comparison in taste. This is our new go-to bakery (and we have to travel from Sharon!). Can't wait to try some of their other yummy-looking stuff, like the savories. read more

Great Place,Great pastrys,Clean,Nice,and the satff Is Wonderful read more

La Luce Pastry Shop - Bakeries Near Me - Dedham, Massachusetts

The BEST cupcakes! You gotta try the hostess cupcake, I can eat like 6 at a time. Also great that they keep such a wide range of selections. You aren't choosing between chocolate or vanilla, you're choosing between 6-10 types of cupcakes daily. Caramel, Oreo, red velvet, lemon curd, etc. I've also tried the crepes which are excellent. Egg, bacon and cheese is a perfect breakfast... skip the bagel place! read more

Whatever you get here it is guaranteed to be spectacular and delicious. Highly recommend!

Great place for Crepes, they have a lot of different flavors. I'm sure you heard that from other places that their food is great but what makes this place different is how immaculate and clean it is and how the owners stops by the tables to bring you anything you need and to ask how is the food. There front displays are full of croissants,cookies,cakes and cupcakes. This place is a amazing and I strongly recommend everyone coming. read more

Visiting from Texas I enjoyed a wonderful massage next door before I happened upon this wonderful bakery! The Jamie was amazing and the many options make it difficult to choose. Jamie was very attentive to all the guest that came in while I was there, even remembering their names and favorite things. After pondering a bit with so many wonderful options I ended up with a box of croissants which could be disguised as authentic French pastry. I would be willing to bet there's a French man baking up a storm in the back. Lol Stop in if you can, you won't regret it. read more

The good: Great variety of choices. Clean. The bad: Ordered a mini cannoli, lobster cream puff, and a piece of chocolate cake. All tasted like they were a couple of days old. The cannoli lacked any crunch in the shell (part of it was soggy), and the pastry of the puff was stale. I did not taste the cake; but, was told it "tasted the same" as my description and the taster would not "go there again." Maybe visit "in a pinch" if it is on the way and you are supposed to bring dessert...otherwise skip. read more

My daughter (2) and I come to this bakery for breakfast at least once a week. We are big fans of their croissants (Nutella, almond, ham & cheese, plain- all delicious), and my daughter loves to sit outside and watch all of the activity on the streets of Dedham. When ordering deserts or cupcakes to bring to any occasion La Luce is my go to bakery. The service is always wonderful - another reason why we keep coming back! read more

I have an incredible sweet tooth. It was my birthday and we decided to get different slices/cupcakes for each member of the family instead of one cake. Everything looked amazing. It was hard to choose. But we did choose. Unfortunately, nothing we bought tasted good. The mocha cake was extremely dry, and the frosting was so plastic it seemed like it was from a Costco. I actually spit out the one bite I took of it -- and I NEVER turn down a dessert. The chocolate cupcake with sprinkles (kids' choice) was entirely mediocre and my kids didn't even want to finish the frosting. The flourless chocolate torte was far better, but still only middling. The ganache was delicious, but the cake was a bit grainy. I chalk that up to the almond flour that makes it gluten-free. Still, it was tasty. I will say, however, that it seemed like most of their business was from the cookies in the first glass case, and there were samples of something called an "Everything cookie" that were unbelievably delicious. I'd try this place again for the cookies, but not the cakes. read more

Most of the desserts I've tried have been good; with the croissants, ricotta pie, and gigantic muffins standing out. This is not a cheap bakery, but I don't mind splurging once in a while. The girl working here is awesome, and actually helpful. Presentation-wise everything on display is top notch. Worth a try. read more

I have been craving an Oreo cupcake for a few days now. I was in the downtown Dedham area getting some housekeeping items out of the way when I searched for bakeries in the area and low and behold, I found this cozy bakery tucked right in the heart of downtown. The staff there was very kind and told me to take my time. I took home more than I could bargain for (Oreo cheesecake, Oreo cupcake and some Oreo and assorted cookies-freshly baked). I'm so sorry I do not recall the name of the young lady who assisted me but she was very warm, inviting and helpful. I am definitely going to return and recommend this shop to my friends. read more

We stopped on our way to Boston and had French crepes. Fantastic!! I had spinach and cheese and my husband had egg and bacon. Highly recommend this adorable pastry shop in Dedham. read more

Best cupcakes I have ever had. Fantastic crepes. I can't wait to try their pastry. Dedham is lucky to have this shop downtown. read more

Delicious! I stop by quite often to buy pastry for my sister who loves their desserts and this time I treated myself to key lime pie. Highly recommended. read more

Great shop with lots to chose from! I had the Key Lime cupcake and my daughter had the Nutella croissant. Tasted great! Very friendly lady working too! read more

Probably the best croissants in a 150 miles radius, no contest. Those croissants can be sold in France and pass the Gallic test with flying colors. I used to go to Clear Flour Bread for my croissant fix, but in this case I must say that I have changed my mind... Now it's La Luce. I know of 3 shops in the US that provides this quality: The NECN Bakery in Montpelier, VT. Parc Restaurant in Philadelphia, PA, and La Luce, Dedham, MA. Now, it's up to you id you want to drive to VT or PA for a "petit dejeuner au croissants" :) but I would highly suggest the shortcut to La Luce. And while you're at it, try their Spinach and Feta Croissants, the Almond Croissants, and for breakfast indulge yourself with a Ham and Cheese Croissant. As for the cakes ... Well... you already know .... read more

Always get the croissants. Whether it's ham and cheese or spinach or Nutella. They are the best. Great for weekend brunch .

Extremely disappointed in my recent experience with this shop. I ordered a rum cake on a Saturday for my mother's 85th birthday that would be the following Wednesday. A voicemail was left on my phone on Wednesday (the day I was supposed to pick up the cake) by the owner saying that they don't make rum cakes. My daughter saw rum cake listed on their online menu. And the young lady that I placed the order with did not inform me that they didn't make rum cakes. So obviously I could not give my mother her favorite flavor of cake on her birthday given the short notice by the owner. He should update the online menu and inform all staff about the selections they do or don't offer. Maybe the owner should check all orders that are placed on the day they are placed rather than waiting to check the orders on the actual day they're set to be made and picked up. Nothing was done on their end to try and rectify my situation. I was just left cake-less. I'm glad I didn't pay for it in advance. Definitely will not be placing anymore cake orders with this shop. read more

this place is incredible. I had the best crepe and hot chocolate of my entire life. Joanna is amazing, and you will not regret spending all of your money here. A must-try!!!!!! read more

I had the turkey pesto crepe and t was good. Very generous portion compare to all the place I've been to for crepe. The server (i think she is the owner too) is super nice and attentive! I also bought raspberry muffin and chocolate decadence to go, can't wait to try them! Def rec this place!! read more

Amazing pastries! Their classic cheesecake is rich and sweet. Our family said it was the best they ever had. All of their mini desserts are also the perfect small sweet treat. read more

Really disappointed! It was my first time at La Luce and the woman behind the counter wasn't very friendly. I know people have their bad days, but first impressions are the truest. To top it off, the cookies I got did not taste right, like it was missing sugar or sweetener, all I could taste was baking soda. read more

I was there for breakfast early Sunday AM on a bike ride. The food was extraordinary. Quick service. Excellent cuisine. Hard to beat! We sat outside at the tables - socially distanced. We will definitely go again! read more

Whenever I have an event or a party to attend, I always hit up La Luce. Even if its last minute on Thanksgiving or Christmas, La Luce has my back so I don't look like a jerk arriving empty handed. From presentation to taste, all their products are amazing quality at a decent price.The staff is friendly, patient and hard working. Give La Luce your business. read more
