Pasticceria Monteleone BK

The best spot in all of NYC to get Italian cookies and pastries. Also my favorite seven layer rainbow cookie. They have the most beautiful marzipan and cakes too. The coffee is great and during the summer months they have two small tables out front to sit and eat. Cannot recommend this spot enough.

We skipped dessert at a local restaurant and went here instead. Amazing selection of desserts 🍮 and Italian cookies and cannolis. A great after dinner dessert place for gelato 🍨 and a walk around the park nearby afterwards. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The thing I loved when I entered this bakery was how it genuinely felt like an authentic Italian bakery. When I came in there was amazing aroma of all the baked goods. The smell of all those Italian cookies was amazing. When I saw everything in the display cases it was all beautifully presented. Everything looked amazing. Once again I always get overwhelmed when I see all the amazing baked treats that I don’t know what to get because I want everything. Lol! For my first visit I bought some fig and chocolate cookies. They were delicious! The staff were very nice to me. Overall this is a beautiful Italian bakery in a wonderful neighborhood. I would definitely come back again to try out more delicious baked treats.

I love this truly authentic Italian pasticcheria and bakery. The selection of dolci is fantastic, as are their cookies, and varieties of marzipan fruits. I’ve never seen such a display of beautifully shaped marzipan in any pastry shop in my many decades in NYC. The cannolis are outstanding. I also tried the sesame cookies which are wonderful. Really such a delight to shop at this pasticcheria. I will return often.

Really yummy $2 small pastries and $4 one scoop gelato. Good deals! The fruit tarts are my favorite. Come here for all your marzipan needs most definitely

Delicious and fresh Italian pastries. Excellent canoli. They also have Italian gelatto, coffee and a hamburger-shaped cake. Small cakes cost $ 2 each, but if you take a dozen it comes out $ 20. There are a couple of comfortable tables outside. The staff are very friendly. I got great recommendations on the choice of cakes. Accessible for a wheelchair. Yummy, I like that place 😘

I came here on my second day in New York. Villabate Alba was closed for the first half of August for holidays, so I did a search and came up with Monteleone’s and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. In my opinion, one of the best traditional Italian pasticceria’s in the world which reminded me of the old country. Try the cannoli, lobster tail and marzipan. If I ever come back to New York I will return here for my dolci. BELLISSIMI!

My first experience with Monteleone was amazing! I heard they had the best rainbow cookies in Brooklyn, so I had to give it a try. And it totally deserves the rep! I also got the Tiramisu, two chocolate cannolis, and a mini cake with Nutella mousse. Absolutely delicious compared to my usual neighborhood bakery. You can taste the freshness, and the desserts are not overly sweet. Definitely coming back!
