Bakery specializing in sweet & savory Filipino goods, from donuts & breads to ube (purple yam) cake.
"Behind the glass case at this Filipino bakery on Beacon Hill, the baked goods are as visually mesmerizing as a kaleidoscope, or elementary school children performing Shakespeare. And when it comes to what Despi Delite does best, focus your attention on the ube malasada. It's loaded with a thick Grimace-colored purple filling that oozes out of sugar-covered dough." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
"This Filipino bakery in Beacon Hill has been perfecting the classics for over 20 years. Doughnuts, laminated apple turnovers, hopia (a small pastry filled with mung bean), moreish ube bread, ube cheesecake, even wedding cake — Despi Delite does it all. And though ube and other traditional Filipino flavors are now all the rage, Despi is resolutely untrendy and inexpensive — you can get a pretty good haul here for under $10." - Eater Staff, Harry Cheadle

"Established in 1988, Filipino-owned Delite Bakery provides some of the freshest daily-made pan de sal in town, which can also be seen at various Asian grocery markets across the city. The restaurant’s meat-filled siopao provide savory flavors in each doughy bite, and its ube-flavored cakes and other Filipino desserts can fix any sweet-tooth cravings. There’s minimal indoor seating, but this a great spot to grab a quick snack or a box full of delectable pastries to-go." - Ronnie Estoque, Eater Staff
