A rare five-star review for a gelato shop. tonight's in a row. Caramel the first night and coconut the second. Loved the coconut liked the caramel. Services great, and, best of all, most respecting of the customer, no ridiculous 22% tip button popping up on the credit card machine. Establishment clearly takes their product seriously, and they obviously don't have to upsell tips. I'll probably be back here tomorrow night. Visiting from California staying at the Marriott Residence Inn. Less than a 5-minute walk. read more

Pan'e Dolci Bakery - Coconut - Bakeries Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Very authentic Italian pastries and bread. This is definitely the go to bakery in South Florida for all Italian bakery specialties. We love the sfogliatelle's. They are so crispy with fresh yellow cream inside. The bread is rustic and made to perfection. They also offer delicious gelato and fantastic cappuccinos and espresso. Love this place. read more

We stopped by for dessert and it was definitely worth it. It's a nice spot near the beach with a very chill atmosphere and not overly crowded. They offer a great variety of sweets, including ice cream and pastries, along with coffee. They also have sandwiches if you're not in the mood for something sweet. The fruit tarts were really good, and the rum sponge cake was delicious with coffee. I would definitely stop by again whenever I'm in the area. read more

This bakery is close to our place on the Galt, so we stopped to get some cookies. Their selection was really good and the prices were comparable to other places in the area. The lady working was nice and we got some good cookies. Depending on what you like, you can pick fruity ones, chocolate based ones, almond ones, etc. Check it out... read more

This is an extremely interesting place to visit at the entire Lauderdale by the sea for us. Trust me, doesn't have a lot of reviews, but I can tell you something that this place runs by love the moment we entered. It was giving us a local Italian vibe with all the Italian pastries cookies gelato, and plenty of desserts with coffee and other items as well. It was a lot and lots of sandwiches. Panini is hot and cold ones that you can buy it was also a mini grocery store for Italian bakers or renters. We bought a bunch of cookies and desserts and had them had an amazing ice cream. It was a lot of ice cream for a small cup. Very generous amount. At the end while I was leaving, I was just having a talk with this amazing closed. Her name is Cristy. I told her what was your favorite dessert and she said eclairs. I said I love it too, but I can't finish it all. I'll buy it. do you want to split it with me? She laughed and she said I'm gonna give it to you for free and we just laughed and it was such a nice just I really liked it and these are the kind of customer service that we look for not to get a free food but to have a sense of who is a legitimate customer who is looking for good service read more

The total for a pound and half of cookies from Pan'e Dolci yesterday was $89. I was floored, but thought that perhaps the cookies would be exceptional. They aren't. The gluten free almond cookie had no flavor. The chocolate-filled cookie didn't have a strong chocolate taste. The other nut cookies are all soft-baked. Where is the crunch? The cinnamon rugelach did taste like a rugelach. By contrast, similar cookies at Gran Forno bakery cost $15. Pan'e Dolci is a flavorless ripoff. Do NOT go there. read more

Highly disappointed with this bakery. I always drive by this location and finally I stopped. I took a box to go with bakery items. The Tiramisu was hard and so were a few of the other pastries. The only thing I enjoyed were the Cannolis. Also, the lady behind the counter did not make this experience pleasurable. I can tell she wanted to go home; it was Sunday. read more

Thought we would try this Gelato / bakery for an after dinner dessert In Fort Lauderdale .Service was phenomenal although only 1 person was working. The ameretto gelato was good however the cup was very small for the price . I love that area and they did have plenty of inside seating. Note: only paid parking in the area closest to this business. We parked at a friend's restaurant that was close by since had dinner there. read more

I've had my fair share of gelato and Italian pastries, and this place didn't really impress me. The gelato was a bit pricey for a small serving, and you couldn't even split it between two flavors. I tried the pistachio flavor, and it was okay, but nothing special. I also got the almond croissant, bomboloni cream (Nutella), and a Sfoglliatelle (large). None of them really stood out to me. To note, there were no prices on anything. read more

Heard great things about the bakery and was disappointed. We arrived and one person was being helped by the espresso counter. Someone else was waiting to be served in front of the bread and cookies. The women behind the counter finished with the espresso order and said she had to help the guy by the bread counter. In the meantime there is someone going back and forth from the kitchen bringing out and stacking Paninni for lunch(at 10 in morning) instead of helping the next customet(me). It took forever. But the real problem was all breakfast pasteries were burnt! Not a little over baked, burnt. I commented to the person and she acknowledged it. Where's the quality control? Who sells burnt food. Only option that wasn't burnt were the Bambolini which were ok, nothing special, not what we were hoping for(croissant, pan au chocolate) the espresso and cappuccino were fine. Very disappointed! read more

This was our first time here. We have been at their other location on E Las Olas Blvd. this E Oakland Park Blvd location is very similar in its offerings. Ice cream, cookies, pastries, sandwiches, etc. We got two pastries to go, a chocolate mousse and an apple tart. They were both delicious, but at $20 total for two pastries, they better have been! read more

I went here today and everything looked beautiful. I spent $30 on two small gelatos and a piece of sweet bread and the cashier was miserable. She barely wanted to help or check us out and frowned miserably the whole time. Yeah no thank you , don't recommend and won't be back. read more

I've lived here for 10 years. This place gets worse and worse. The owner won't spring for letting the waitresses get tipped via credit card. Pretty cheap in my opinion. However, they will charge you five dollars for one cookie. It's usually my last resort, but I was starving. I stopped by and asked for prosciutto mozzarella. They would not make me a new sandwich. I had to choose from the stack of meat old sandwiches that was piled up on the counter. So, instead, I got four pieces of tomato and mozzarella for $27. And they didn't even have a fork. So, still starving. read more

Horrendous service. The two ladies that work there could care less about what they were serving. I practically had to beg to be served. The music was blasting Spanish music. Not a hospitable environment at all. read more

Zero costumer service and personal skills .. gelato was served melted, small portions, prices aren't written anywhere, totally not worth $13,50 dollars per cone.. beware tourist trap, find another place! Serves have RBF!! Same strategy used in every gelato and pastry shop in italy.. take advantage of good people ordering without asking price thinking in reasonable prices and when you notice, you have to pay a lot for nothing.. what a Sc...m!! read more

Popped in today for breakfast with my family. Great selections great coffee. Service was good. Croissants were all delicious. We got the chocolate croissant the apple turnover and sfogliatelle.. we had Americano coffee and cappuccinos that was really good also.. they had beautiful selection of gelato. Looking forward to going back to try those. read more

Sad..been here several times. Stopped in Christmas Eve. Almond cookies ( ok) gelato pistachio fine, gelato strachatella awful...freezer burn chemical taste. Stopped in Christmas Day to be polite and let them know...no one wanted to speak with me and owner saw me and refused in another language which I happen to know. Done there for ever...be kind and concerned...your in the industry! I will follow up with better business bureau..hmmm health dept maybe too! read more

I need my head examined. I try and try and just more and more disappointment is the result. Today is Easter Eve and on the pastry counter I see, what I assume, freshly baked grain pies. Against my better judgement, and past experience, I take 4 home. Well, they taste just like a refrigerator with powered sugar on top. I'm done. read more

Amazing Italian bakery! Many choices!! Great service and quiet atmosphere! Cannolis we're good. Tiramisu was fire probably the best I've had in a long time! Highly recommend this spot for dessert any day! Dessert 5/5 Service 5/5 Atmosphere 4/5 read more

Recently spotted this bakery which had amazing curb appeal and wonderful presentation of baked goodies. However, our counter server was not in the least bit interested in helping us much and was unable to answer what I thought was a basic question. I'd asked if my choices was filled with fresh cream or confectioner's custard. I thought this was an easy question but seemingly beyond our servers interest level or understanding of english. As a lad who grew up in a 3 generation confectionery & bakery family business, this visit was hugely disappointing. read more

We stopped by for lunch and had a very tasty sandwich and wonderful fresh antipasto. Staff were very friendly and helpful making suggestions. Cannoli cream was great but shell was not crispy fresh. Very clean and nice atmosphere. read more

The worst service and overall all bad experience. The young lady that works here clearly doesn't want to be here. What's her problem? Everything tastes 2 days old, Sandwiches are just sitting there with no refrigerator, this place is a healthy hazard and a total disaster. Been twice and never again... Hard Pass! Look how they serve the espresso.. read more

Pan'e Dolci Bakery - This cup shows the state of this business. Dirty and disgusting! - Bakeries Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Sweet treats aren't bad, the mini cannoli is very good, in fact. It's $6.24 plus tax for a double espresso that I can't forgive.

GELATO ALLERT!!!! Totally gyped. They used to serve a healthy scoop of gelato but no longer. $30 for three chintsy servings - total rip off. Avoid. The owner told the server's to only fill the cups up half way!!! What a joke read more

Place sucks...read on...this is a review of the E Las Olas "dump" location. Too bad I can't leave 0 stars. Strike 1 - wanted 21 dollars for 6 mini sfogliatelle. Insane. It gets better - strike 2 - the inexperienced, clueless associate, behind the counter, said she could not sprinkle a bit of powdered sugar on the sfogliatelle = "we don't do that." Strike 3 - she refused to place our sfogliatelle in a box - instead threw them in a bag - like zeppole bought at the feast. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. Complete shit show this place. What a dump. Owner should be ashamed of himself...but probably could not care less and has no time a$ he i$ bu$y driving to the bank. read more

Totally rude staff . Julianna did not know how to give change . My bill was $3.21 for a cup of coffee. I gave her $5.25 and she said she preferred to give me quarter back and $1.79 change cuz it was EASIER for her . This place used to be good but no it's a joke . Way over priced for what you get and the staff is incompetent . Go elsewhere read more

I visited here last time I was in Fort Lauderdale, and knew I had to come back. The paninis are amazing! The service is nice and friendly and the restaurant is beautifully well kept. They have little tables to sit outside and enjoy as well. We got a smoked salmon panini to split, it comes with pesto and mozzarella and was amazing! It tasted so fresh. They offer to toast your panini but we did not get this one toasted. The mini fruit tarts were also delicious! The only reason I am giving this place 4 stars and not 5 is because the food is a on the pricier side. read more

The best gelato I've ever had. Coffee is superb. Can't wait to come back and try the pastries!

Omg worse experience ever owner was so rude I leave in Fl for 33 years never got treated like that please save your self a trip don't go to the one on Oakland terrible!!!! read more

Horrible experience. After ordering 2 coffees and a Tiramisu they didn't want to give me a glass of water. Don't go there.

We wanted to get a little am coffee!! I desired an ICE cappuccino or an ICE coffee. But the lady there kind of rudely, said "this is an Italian Bakery, we don't have ice". Ok so I opted to get a hot cappuccino. I didn't think asking for ice in FLORIDA was such an odd question, but apparently it was. We got some pickings. They weren't bad. I was leaning towards the focaccia and sandwiches, but I got turned off, not knowing how long those items were hanging out, no refrigeration, nor covering. But they did look good. read more

Extremely rude staff. Came here all happy to enjoy a sandwich and some pastries for two of the workers here (male and female) tell me, "I see you're on a diet." Not very nice to say to customers. Won't be coming back. Plenty of other hard working restaurants to support in South Florida instead. read more

Authentically Italian from the walk up espresso counter brewing LaVazza to what I call the waiting trapezoid (lack of a line to order, more everyone standing around in no real order). The most American thing here is the size of the Panini! Italian coffee, fresh bread, gelato, pastries, cookies, panini, aka Heaven. Totally sold after just 1 visit. Had a cafe macchiato and un panino. - The cafe was delicious, as LaVazza typically is. - Mortadella Panini - 5/5 - the combination of mortadella, artichoke, sundried tomato, and provalone really makes this hot pressed wonder memorable. Served with that good mortadella w/ pistachios. Huge - (size of 2 sandwiches) $14. read more
