A Cannoli with a lack of personality, looks great! But not a lot going on inside to be interesting.

Now I don't make reviews often, so I apologize if this may come off as rude, crude, or crass. But for a company who has an item they sell as the name for their business I'd figure that they'd know how to create said item correctly. My parenter got me a cannoli for my birthday treat yesterday and after the candle was blown, the song sang I reached for the Cannoli and it broke. Ok no biggie I can still-aaaaand there's no filling on the inside... Just'a space where the filling should be and about an inches worth of filling on either end. For an extra $2 I could have had a delicious mouthwatering slice of cheesecake from Konditorei. Buuuut I wanted to switch it up this year... silly me!

Coconut Italian soda

This place was really cute! It's pretty small inside but with surprisingly a lot of seating. I got the coconut Italian soda w/ cream and it was quite refreshing! I also got the pistachio macaron and the lavender & honey macaron(I wish I got pictures). The pistachio has a subtle, sweet yet nutty filling. The lavender honey was more on the sweeter side with notes of lavender. I think the filling tastes like raw honey(love!). When my family and I went, it looked like only 1 person was working so please be patient if you can, we had a pretty large order and it took a couple minutes to bring out.

This is a hidden gem in Salem. The atmosphere is homey and warm. The location is nice. The desserts are absolutely delicious, however a bit in the pricey side. The best deal on a grilled cheese and soup would be at this location. The soup is made from scratch and absolutely delicious. The employees are kind and welcoming. The owner is very friendly as well. Highly recommend. Cheers, enjoy!

Cannoli, blueberry pastry
Kylie C.

I forgot what the blueberry pastry was called but it was good just too sweet for my liking. The cannoli filling was amazing but I didn't care for the shell. The workers weren't very attentive and we had to wait a bit until someone finally turned around and took our order. The address on Yelp is incorrect! Be sure to check their website for the correct address. We went to their old location and had to walk to their new one.

Macaroons nom nom Nom

The ambiance here is really cute and chill. There's so many delicious looking pastries to choose from. They also have biscuits and gravy , breakfast sandwiches, pizza, and coffee/tea to choose from. The cannolis are so good but they don't hold up if you don't eat them immediately. Macaroons have perfect crisp outer shell, although the maple pecan buttercream needed more mixing, I think because you could taste the sugar granules, they weren't well dissolved.overall, cool spot to come eat, work, and study.

French Macarons Variety pack
Sierra S.

Excellent little bakery we visited after having dinner at Gambrettis next door. We ordered macrons, cannolis, waffle, and a danish. Most of the desserts were good, but I recommend eating them fresh and not taking them to go for hours later. The staff was not very friendly, but we did have a large group. The prices are a bit expense too.

Ice Italian Redbull w/ cherry lime & vanilla

The service was great! I ordered a Ice Italian Redbull w/ cherry lime & vanilla. The drink was refreshing! The ambiance was welcoming and cool. Love the chess boards everywhere. Highly recommend for some good pastries!

What a treat! I wish I was eating gluten because many tempting treats here. I got the peanut butter balls and an assortment of macarons because they were the gluten free options. They did not dissapoint. Friendly service. Clean tables. Easy and free parking structure. Cute Parisian/ European atmosphere.

Storefront

I currently utilize a coworking space in downtown Salem a couple times a week. Street parking in this area is free but limited to three hours per block from 8am-8pm. So around lunch time, I must move my car. I know, I know, #firstworldproblems, but it's really annoying! One day, I found a space right out front of Little Cannoli Bakery. I hadn't even known a bakery was in such close proximity, and what a way to cheer me out of my grumbly re-parking mood! Due to COVID, they currently are not allowing customers in shop. Instead, their treats are on display in cases pressed against the glass storefront. There are French macarons of every color, tarts, eclairs, napoleons, brownies, pies, cookies....well, you get the idea! They had a couple coffees available, and a menu for a few savory items, mostly breakfast sandwiches and individual pizzas. An employee takes your order, gathers your goodies, and off you go! Quite convenient. Of course, I had to get their namesake treat, though if there is a cannoli on offer, I'm always going to get it as I love them so. Thus, I've had my fair share and I'm ready to declare this the best one yet! They are fresh filled to order with one side dipped in pistachio dust, the other in chocolate chips. The shells are extraordinarily crispy, even more so as they are coated in a caramelized sugar crust. Whew! My rainbow cookie was dense, but moist. It had that familiar flavor all rainbow cookies have. I don't know how to describe it, except that it reminds me of boxed cake mix batter, but in a good way. Lastly, the dalmation cheesecake was not only adorably named, but absolutely delicious. Not too sweet + so plush and creamy. Prices felt a tad high though not enough to keep me away, and everything was wonderful so I'd say it's worth it. I'll certainly be back for more cannolis, and I desperately want to try the bag of giant chocolate dipped coconut macaroons!

Grab some specialty coffee from Storm coffee in town got in our car and headed down the road for a long road trip. Popped open the goods and immediately was met with disappointment . The raspberry tart was ice cold and hard maybe partially frozen? Likewise, the sausage turnover was very cold inside. Not sure if that's how they sell them. In my opinion they should offer to at least heat them up or warn the customer that they're not ready to eat. On the good side, the chocolate chip cookies were delicious. Unfortunately, we were too far down the road and did not have time to return. This is not a condemnation on Turner bakery because I've heard nothing but fabulous things but this was just our first experience unfortunately but we will be back but we will ask more questions obviously . Not sure if these are refrigerated from the previous day or night or they got that cold from opening till 11 AM when we picked them up? To readers just be sure to ask questions and if you think it should be warm, ask them to do so.

Stopped by early on a Sunday morning, about 20 minutes after opening, and there was already a short…read moreline to order. The interior was bright and kind of barn/farmhouse chic. Service was quick and friendly. I went with a cinnamon roll, two plain bagels, and two cookies: one ultimate chocolate chip and one peanut butter. I also got cream cheese for the bagel. The cinnamon roll was huge, pillowy, and very delicious. It was a little light on the cinnamon for my tastes, but I would definitely get it again. The bagels were pretty good. Nothing amazing, but a solid bagel chewy texture with good flavor. The cream cheese seemed to be whipped, which was a thoughtful touch. The cookies were huge, and both had a nice soft texture and rich flavor. The ultimate chocolate chip seemed to have maybe a caramel swirl along with chocolate chips. Very decadent! And the peanut butter was rich and chewy, with good peanut butter flavor. This place is a bit of a drive from me, but I will definitely be back some Sunday in the future to try some more of their extensive and tasty offerings.
