Vaccaro's Italian Pastry Shop, Little Italy

Heavenly Holiday Indulgence at Vaccaro’s Italian Pastry Shop in Little Italy.
Stepping into Vaccaro’s Italian Pastry Shop on a chilly December day in Baltimore is like walking into a warm embrace of holiday cheer. From the moment I entered, the festive atmosphere transported me to a winter wonderland of sweet aromas and cozy charm. Twinkling lights, cheerful music, and the unmistakable scent of freshly brewed coffee made it an instant respite from the cold.
I started with their peppermint latte, and let me tell you, it’s pure magic in a cup. Topped with a generous swirl of whipped cream and sprinkled with crushed peppermint, every sip was a blissful harmony of rich coffee and holiday sweetness. It’s a seasonal dream come true and the perfect companion for a winter stroll.
The mini cannolis are, quite simply, to die for. Crisp, delicate shells encase a creamy filling that balances just the right amount of sweetness. Each bite was a little piece of heaven that had me savoring every moment. And if that wasn’t enough, the peanut butter fudge gelato is a masterpiece in itself. Velvety, indulgent, and with the perfect hint of peanut butter richness, it’s the ultimate cold treat, even on a frosty day.
The service was impeccable, quick, efficient, and delightfully friendly. Despite a bustling crowd, the staff made me feel like I was their top priority, adding to the warmth of the experience. Vaccaro’s is a holiday treasure, delivering comfort and joy with every dish. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this gem in the heart of Baltimore's Little Italy is a must-visit this season.

We had stopped here as we had some time to spend before a flight.
We had gotten some coffee and thought to try out Brownie Lovers.
We were shocked with the amount that was given for the prize. We thought I might come with 2 or 3 scoops of gelato, but from the pic you can see that was not the case.
And not only the quantity but the taste was also awesome. Will definitely recommend this place to come and try out.

I thoroughly enjoyed my brunch today at Vaccaro’s. Our waitress was a delight and the cannoli was to die for!
I ordered the tomato, egg, and cheese on focaccia bread. And my mum ordered the bacon, egg, and cheese.
I HIGHLY recommend the Cappuccino Vaccaro it was amazing! “Even the Italian coffee was delicious” - My mum

Fantastic food - huge, delicious mufalato and every cookie I tried was amazing. Cannoli to stuff at home held well for three days! Must go! The table service is slow, and they warn you.

Wonderful experience all around! The staff was super friendly, welcoming, and made to feel like part of the family when dining in! Some of the best Italian pastries that you’ll come across and the best in Baltimore! Highly recommend stopping by and picking up one of everything!
