Fratelli’s Pastry Shop

What a disappointment. I am Italian and have been eating Ricotta Pie forever. After reading the reviews my sister and I went there today and purchased a Ricotta Pie and ½ dozen cannoli’s to take with us down the Cape to our brothers house. Thank goodness it was family. It was bland, no cheese flavor in the pie or cannoli’s. I can not believe how uneventful and bland. No flavor at all what a waste of money.

Ahhhhhhhhh Sweeeeeeeeeeet !!! I visit more times than I have time to leave reviews folks !!! Oh yeh no kidding ., often customer !! Awesome Quincy bakery, by now I have tried just about all their goodies. Still coming back to Carrot cake/​slice, tiramisu, French éclair, and chocolate every thing !! Worth s trip !!! Good crew as well ., quick to help !!!
Well done Fratelli’s …, keep it up !!!

Went there for the first time today after living in Marina Bay for 3 years. Oh my! We picked up a strawberry cheesecake, a raspberry Bismarck, and a piece of carrot cake. Everything was absolutely amazing, including the coffee to go. We’ll definitely be back!

Fratelli’s was my go to pastry shop when I lived in Quincy. Everything I’ve tried there has always been fresh & delicious. The two items that stand out to me here are the carrot cake & the whoopie pies. There is no adjective in the English language to describe the whoopie pies at Fratelli’s. In New England whoopie pies are available in many grocery stores, convenience stores, & bakeries but none compare to Fratelli’s whoopie pies !
Normally they only have mini whoopie pies in their display case. The mini version is great too but I prefer the larger version. So on occasion I will call & order 6 – 10 larger size whoopie pies & they make them for me as a special order. The chocolate cake is perfect. Nice chocolate flavor & moist. The white filling is delicious without being overly sweet. Then they are topped with a dusting of powdered sugar ! Best I’ve ever had. You’ve not had a whoopie until you’ve had a Fratelli’s whoopie.

This is the best Italian pastry shop south of Boston. Clean and delicious and giving your business to brothers John and Pino can make you feel good about supporting local business as these are great people. Try the Alpine chocolate cake or the rum cake. Top shelf from the mouth of the fat man.

The strawberry tiramisu is heaven on earth. Best bakery without going into the north end. Staff is friendly. Highly recommend all pastries.

Thank you for making my daughter’s vision come true! We came in on a Wednesday after trying few other shops who couldn’t do our vision of what we wanted. We needed it for a Sunday birthday party at the zoo. You was able to make it happen and we were so thrilled. Thank you so much! :) The cupcakes were good. We just got 40 yellow cupcakes with buttercream frosting and the price was reasonable. The design was a beautiful rainbow with white clouds at bottom and two ponies on top.

I never heard of them until I was looking for a wedding cake. I went to one of their tastings and we really liked a lot of the flavors. The level of attention and patience of the cake decorator was fantastic. They were willing to work with us and we are certainly not easy to please.
We didn’t love their standard decorations and we didn’t find any ONE thing online that we liked. Instead we brought in 2 or 3 pictures of various cakes and asked them to take a piece of each and bring it all together. Doing that is very nerve racking since you don’t even know if it can be replicated. We didn’t see the cake until the reception and we were very happy with it. What a pleasant surprise to have someone create one product from several multiple ideas. Their prices are very reasonable, the customer service is great and they will take all your phone calls, answer all your questions and have as many meetings as you need.
Unfortunately, I have to take away a star because I feel like they could have done a better job with communicating with my venue. I also ordered chocolate covered strawberries as a compliment to the cake to be served to my guests. They brought the cake and the strawberries but didn’t say anything to the kitchen. The kitchen served the cake and it wasn’t until the cake was almost done that they saw the strawberries in the fridge asked me what I wanted to do with them.
I asked them to pass them out ASAP but a lot of it went to waste because people had either filled up on cake, dancing or were on their way out. While one could say it’s shared responsibility between venue, couple and baker, I’ll say this:
1) the couple is pretty busy. We can’t do everything. That’s why we hire people to fill in the gap where we fall short.
2) the venue couldn’t have served strawberries they didn’t know were there. If the delivery person said «hey, here’s a box of strawberries that goes with the cake» maybe the venue could have asked sooner
3) Unilocal doesn’t allow ½ stars and since I spent close to $ 200 on something many of my guests didn’t enjoy, I can’t justify a 5 star rating.
What I would do differently: I would be more on top of them about giving all the necessary details to those who need to know.
But other than that, I was satisfied with the decoration, the taste and the service. I highly recommend.

Have stopped in several times for fresh bread and pastries but last night was the first time I special ordered something. My husband isn’t a fan of cake, but he likes strawberry shortcake so I thought it was worth a shot for his 40^th birthday. It was out-​of-​this-​world good. Huge hit… Everyone raved about it!

Went in here after the craving fur a lobster yal hit me. Not willing to try and go to the north end from Quincy in a Tuesday night, I came here.
My eyes and credit card limit were bigger than my stomach so here was what we got:
— the strawberry Tiramisu wad revolting. Wish they’d warned us
— the rum cake was pretty nice
— lobster tail was good
— cream puff was alright
We ate about half the bread I also picked up.
Friendly enough staff.
I’d still come back if they’d just get some Rainbow/​7 layer cookies.

Just purchased 2 cakes and one of them was stale and previously frozen. They told me it’s common practice to sell frozen cakes when they run out of fresh cakes. Very disappointing as this is not the first time I. Have purchase stale bake goods.
BEWARE

First of all I tried a bunch of their pastries and they were all pretty good. But the cake that they made for my friends law school graduation was awesome!!! They made a cake in the shape of took law books and it looked great, and tasted just as good. Not overly sweet or complicated with flavor, just a very good, well executed cake!

Amazing! Came across this bakery when searching for local places to make a custom cake. The girls were not only patient, they genuinely wanted to make every detail perfect.
I’ve tried and been around a ton of cake. And this cake was one of the best I’ve ever had. (White cake with pineapple jam and fresh strawberry slices in the center.)
I have learned over the years if a cake is even worth tasting by how it cuts. (I.e. Falls apart, crumbles, droops, dense like a brick, etc.) This cake was a dream to plate.
Prices are very reasonable.
The only caveat… it’s dangerous to the waistline. & Only 8min away from where I live.

Got my niece’s bridal shower cake, cupcakes and pastries here. Always come here for something sweet and they never fail me! Pastries were great, cupcakes were simple choc and vanilla and were very moist! The cake was white cake with a strawberry filling. I always come here but this is my first review. My sister has even tried their meat lasagna and says it’s excellent. Customer service is always on point as well. Will continue to come here! Thanks Fratelli’s!

Cyndy’s Bottom Line: Good selection of pastries.
I had the large chocolate dipped cannoli. The filling is sprinkled with mini chocolate
chips.
A decent yummy cannoli.

My first trying this pastry shop. My boss had brought in some Halloween cupcakes, and they were not only delicious ! But nicely decorated as well. Definitely trying more stuff from here; new spot to add to my favorites!

We’ve driven by this bakery several times before without ever noticing it. It’s a bit hidden. The pastries are good, but really, really sweet. The cupcakes are OK and I don’t agree with other Unilocalers that’s it’s the best ever. The cakes was on the dry side and a bit too sweet for my taste. The staff was friendly and patient as we made our selection. I may give it another shot just because of the friendly service.

Had to update my review and bump up the star. Everything I have been getting from Fratelli’s has been spot on. I had never tried their macaroons. Now I am a fan of those as well.
The only thing left for me to try (am sure there are many more — they have a fantastic operation, given the wide variety of things!) are some of the cakes, especially the ice cream cakes — the ones I saw in the fridge today if I am not wrong? One of these days, that will happen. My sweet tooth has to get the best of me and then I can go on with my indulgence.
Really, always feel great to get the yummy treats from here. Keep up the good work!

Friendly Help, Good selection. Their Alpine cake tastes like a amazing version of a Ring Ding.
Is dangerously close to the animal shelter where I volunteer every Monday. Thank god I am usually running late and they close before my shift is over.

For years my family has been going to Konditor Meister or White’s or Montilio’s.
Never again. Fratellis cake is BY FAR the best– the cake is so fresh & moist and the frosting is the real grainy/​sugary rich frosting. Not to mention their bagels are also delicious and so are their black & white cookies (I had a chocolate one and don’t even normally like chocolate cake… it was amazing).
