The cupcakes tasted amazing, too! The cake part wasn't super-moist, so it held its shape and tasted great, but the frosting was the real star. The frosting on the lemon cupcake was intensely lemony, and the chocolate frosting was rich and smooth. I and the other non-vegans at the party couldn't tell that they were vegan, and our host was delighted to know that there is a bakery nearby that caters to her needs. I'll definitely be coming back to try the regular cupcakes soon!

I was really excited to try this place! I ordered the dozen…read moreassorted cupcakes and chose a wide variety. The cupcakes are cute, but the taste wasn't the best. We tried the buttercream frosting and the cream cheese frosting. Buttercream frosting was a bit sweet, I preferred the cream cheese. We ordered for the day before the party and put the cupcakes in the fridge. Would recommend taking them out for about an hour so the frosting softens up. TBH the cupcakes were good for allergen friendly cupcakes but if you don't have any allergies then the cupcakes just don't compare to regular ones. I would consider ordering from them again if I needed allergen friendly cupcakes. Otherwise likely would not choose this bakery if I need regular old cupcakes. PS It is delivery only, no pick up option.

Lyndell's Bakery is a Boston staple! They serve up your favorite American classics. Would…read moredefinitely recommend their moons of course, and their cupcakes. With their decadent moist cakes & dreamy frostings, everything they make is absolutely delicious. Keep in mind, their treats are all incredibly decadent, so they will definitely satisfy any sugar cravings. Also, their staff are just as sweet as their treats. Really kind folks all around. Highly recommend giving them a try! There is a reason everyone and their moms love Lyndell's, so go see for yourself.

The cookies are fantasy, and the cream pie was soooo good. They don't have many old-school bakeries around like they used to. This one was opened in 1887, so you know it's good! They did mention they are moving to the larger space on the corner, so expect even more and better things from Lyndell's once that is complete!

Very friendly staff, easy to read menu largely on one wall, not crowded and easy to order. Clean and bright inside with about 4 counter seats by the window. We ordered one each of espresso, lemon, and pistachio cannolis, walked around the corner and sat in a cool alley with a bench to enjoy them. The cream is very rich, sweet (2/3 would be enough! Very generous). The pastry is crispy and breaks easily when you bite into it (the paper is helpful to hold it together). Glad we came!

The staff here are always so friendly and efficient. While their cannolis are rather expensive ($7-$10 for 1) it does make your day 200% better when you get one of their sweet treats. Their Chocolate Chip Cannolis and Amaretto Cannolis are my favorites! Their cannoli cream is always fresh & smooth while their shells are perfectly crispy. The variety of flavors is amazing. What's not to like?

She explained all the goods they had to offer and answered any questions we had. We decided to get 6 mini cupcakes: Pros: Creative flavors and every cupcake had a filling. I was very happy with every cupcake I ate. My favorite was definitely the carrot cake or snickers but truly, I was pleased with all the cupcakes I tried. They were not too dry and the filling choices were incredible. Cons: the pricing is ridiculous but maybe it's normal for Boston? $23 for 6 mini cupcakes is absurd to me.

The sausage, egg, and cheese is my favorite, but you can't go wrong with any of them! If they are sold out of the sandwiches I usually opt for a ham and cheese croissant, which is also out of this world! All of their croissant goodies are so good as are the cookies and coconut macarons. The coffee is also incredible! I've been here probably a dozen times at this point, and each time the staff is so kind and attentive. I can't recommend Quebrada enough!!!

The rotating menu paired with classics makes it easy to choose pies that will meet everyone's needs. My favorite pie is still the sugar pie, which is seasonal but delicious. I have yet to try the savory pies, but look forward to getting some during the colder months as an easy meal solution. Their service is always friendly, and their website is up to date, making it easy to plan around. I love that place has a local neighborhood vibe and truly feels like a hidden gem.

Since moving to Boston, I hardly see pie on the menu....well today I found a new pie place!!! As soon as I walked in I was met with friendly faces. The pastry counter was filled with fresh baked goods and they even had samples out. This is strictly a pick-up and go, it's not setup like a cafe with tables. I bought the banana cream for a work event and a few minis to take home for me and my hubby. The banana cream was good-admittedly, it was more on the sweeter side than I expected. I really enjoyed the crust - it wasn't too buttery and cooked perfectly. It was def a hit. My hubby and I enjoyed sampling the blueberry, apple, and cherry crumble. Of the three, the apple was my favorite which actually surprised me. The blueberry was OK, not as sweet as I would have liked - opposite of the banana cream. And the cherry was perfectly tart-I really appreciated the crumble. All in all, I will def be back. Can't wait to follow their social media to see what the monthly specials are. Street parking is tough, I rec parking in star market if you're quick. You can also order ahead for a quicker pickup and they deliver within a 6-mile radius as long as you place the order by noon the day before.
