Antoine's Pastry Shop - Newton

I have been going to Antonies pastry for over 45 years since I was a child. I am Italian and visited Rome, Florence, Sicily, Amalfi etc. So, I know excellent pastry when I taste it. This bakery is a gem and is far better than Mike's Pastry in Boston and even Modern. I would say this is the #1 bakery in Massachusetts followed by Modern Pastry a close second. Everything is fresh and the pastry chef studied in France and Italy. They know how to bake and they know what good pastry is...this is exceptional. The poor reviews here are people that likely are never satisfied in life. Trust me everything is delicious and fresh. Love this place.

I give it only three stars because the pastry isn't always fresh. For what they charge, they shouldn't be selling old pastry but on more than one occasion I've received soggy Napoleons and stale cookies. So sad because this used to be the best bakery around. Quality isn't what it used to be.

Old fashioned is still in style. Amazing bakery, I've been coming here for over 40 years since I was little. Great Canolis. Tiramisu fabulous, eclairs amazing. I could go on and on. Keep up the good work guys

Forgot to take a picture before serving lol but this birthday cake was delicious, easy to order, great price, etc. I could go on and on. I highly recommend for small treats and for personalized cakes.

Unassuming bakery that has delicious cookies (love that you can pick your favorites in the asst. box), pastries and breads. The cakes look good. The service is efficient and quick. A must stop anytime we are in the area.
