Porchetta sandwiches, inventive soft serve, and stunning pastries
"A weekend soft-serve destination where the pastry chef rotates an imaginative calendar of flavors—think sweet corn and blackberry or dark chocolate and graham cracker—served in flaky croissant cones or cups and finished with housemade crumbles and sauces." - Regan Stephens
"What’s more Philly than waiting for a small-batch menu drop to secure your favorite sweet treat? Point Breeze’s Small Oven has pastries, breads, and, through Porco’s Porchetteria, savory dishes. But the soft serve flavors are worth waiting for, with swirls like sweet corn, spicy mango and blackberry topped with pickle chips and candied lemon zests. The impatient can get a pint delivered directly to their home." - Annemarie Dooling
"Small Oven Pastry Shop on Washington Avenue sells both savory and sweet menus, and we like to order things from both worlds. With so many options, it's the kind of place where a quick tart can turn into a banquet of snickerdoodles, leek and feta croissants, and thick slices of mocha loaf. But you've got room on your kitchen counter for all of that, right? (There are no seats here, so you'll have to take everything to go.)" - candis mclean, alison kessler
"Small-batch French pastries might be this Point Breeze spot’s main draw, but the sandwich side of its business, Porco’s Porchetteria, has been making waves for its porchetta (an Italian-style pork roast) sandwiches. Here, you can sink your teeth into a wide array of selections including the Philly Sammy (made with cracklings, rapini pesto, and shaved sharp provolone), the Spicy Porker Sammy (topped with fennel slaw and roasted long hot pepper relish), or the Truffle Pig Sammy (which features truffled mushrooms, caramelized onion relish and a truffled goat cheese spread)." - George Banks-Weston
"Just know that if you come rocking your favorite Phillies jersey to eat this breakfast sandwich, you’ll need a new Harper when the whole scarfing session is over. The two over-easy eggs and earthy basil aioli drip from the whole messy ordeal, but it’s worth it—especially with the sausage and bubbly ciabatta in the mix. Head to this South Philly shop immediately after your alarm rings for one of these babies. You can never have too many Phillies jerseys anyway. " - candis mclean, alison kessler
