This town is a real gem. Wonderful people, great restaurants and equally great bakeries. And this…read moreplace here is a good bakery to get some patisserie and homemade cakes. On that rainy day we bought a couple of small patisseries - all very good - and three smaller slices of three different cakes. And two of them were especially good. They had some nuts and what I assume poppy seeds in them. Combined with jam and sour berries. It's a really good mix of nutty and sour flavours. And also quite filling. It's the kind of stuff you want to find and try when travelling. Something different, something that doesn't come of a mainstream producer. And that's definitely the case here. The patisserie was good, but it's the cakes that makes this place very special. Staff is very friendly and very helpful. Prices are on the lower end.

We found Panificio Dama when were walking down the city streets looking for something to drink and a quick bite to eat. Their window caught our I and we definitely had to stop in. They had all sorts of pastries, pies, and cakes as well as different type of Formaggios. There is not a lot of room in the bakery so we took our food to go. One plus, they do speak English.

Also a good number of tables. Some outside in the lovely streets of Santa Margherita. Got some different slices of cakes, a small chocolate tarte, some patisserie and and also two cream puffs. All were solid items. Very good enough. But of the whole load it was the cream puffs that really stood out: Nice, light and a really good whipped cream filling. Came back for some more of these the other day. There are lots of bakeries and pasticcerias in town. This one here is a very good one. At least the cream puffs you should try.

Went to Portofino for the afternoon. Been here before, but haven't visited this bakery…read more Needed some souvenirs (the edible kind) to bring home and this bakery had some good looking products on display. Ended up buying some Amaretti, spice mix and some anchovies in oil with chili. Prices were a bit on the higher end, but hey, it's Portofino. Quality-wise all products were really nice, of course we got some for ourselves as well. Amaretti were nice, good flavour. The spice mix is very useful for cooking some good pasta and the anchovies are nice for some charcuterie plates. Good stuff if you're into anchovies like us. Enjoyed our shopping here and walked away happy.
