Walked here after eating dinner at a restaurant in Little Italy. Glad we decided to stop there. The website stated they closed at 7pm on a Saturday night but on the door it showed they closed at 8pm. The party ahead of us were getting lemon water ice in a large cup with ice tea poured over the water ice. It looked refreshing. We got individual cannoli chips and dip ($3.95 special on Saturday) and some cookies (ricotta, chocolate covered coconut, and chocolate filled). Everything was delicious.

A trip to Baltimore isn’t complete without a stop at Vaccaro’s. We love the cannoli’s , they are always made to order which makes the shell so crispy. The filling is so rich and yummy. We also love the assortment of cookies.

Walked here after going getting fish and chips at a local restaurant in the Inner Harbor. The desserts are amazing! However, you can’t eat inside at this time which was disappointing seeing it was just about to downpour. The canolli cake was just as good their famous canolli’s. However kids found their canolli gelato tasted like cinnamon red hots.

We have been to Vaccaros a few times but this last time it seems to have gone downhill. Bought one and a half cakes that had been frozen. Don't know if they were frozen on purpose or by accident but either way it makes for a cake less than appetizing. At the expense of $15 for a half cake and $22 for a full cake, I am expecting something great! I suggest you save your money and don't bother with Vaccarros

On the surface it looks pretty awesome - brightly lit cases of cookies and pastries, a nice looking menu of breakfast and lunch options. We ordered a breakfast panini and was told it would take 15 minutes to make. 15 mins?? Anyway, it took about 20 mins and wasn't really very good. Stale and dry panini bread, overcooked eggs, undercooked bacon. We asked for ketchup - they DON'T HAVE ANY. ??? My daughter ordered a lemon iced cookie - it was stale and rock hard. Seems like they don't change out the items in the cases very often. Not sure I would take a chance on anything else here.

These pastries were a large part of my childhood but after my Nona passed away we hadn't had these sent to us for several years - after tracking down her favorite bakery and making an opportunity to stop in (we live several states away) the flavors are all the same - which is top tier true Sicilian pastries. We put in several large pastry orders and staff were quick and very sweet. Thank you guys for keeping up with your traditional recipes and letting me have a taste of my childhood and remember the lady who wouldn't buy cannoli's anywhere else! We will be taking advantage of the shipping option in the future!

Stopped for an afternoon treat on the way to the hotel from the aquarium. We decided to dine in and we’re treated to a host of classic Italian pastries from fresh filled cannolis to the delightful Pasticiotti “Vaccaro’s Style Pie!” Gelato was a refreshing choice and included classics like chocolate and strawberry and more original styles like peanut butter fudge. Full coffee/espresso menu and cordials and other grown up drinks too. So many sweet choices.

Cannolis are some of the best I’ve had. Filled to order. Shells were crisp and the custard was sweet and creamy but not overly so. Great selection of gelato flavors and a generous serving. However they do not currently have any seating (due to Covid?) and the closest benches or park are two blocks away and the sidewalk outside is pretty narrow, so if your getting gelato especially with kids take that into account as it might be a hassle to walk with dishes of gelato.

I drive from West Virginia to Baltimore for my Vaccaro's cannoli fix. I always get an extra container of filling to pop in my freezer. Always treated well even though employees are hustling to get orders filled quickly and correctly. You will NOT be disappointed!

My family and I decided to go to Vaccaros after mass. However, they seem to have new staff, and they are not doing a good job on the tables. I had to wait a lot of hours for my food, and a staff member told a family that they cannot eat at the restaurant because the group was too big (5 people) even though they have a table for big families. So, I will not recommend eating in the restaurant because of the staff.

I have been going to Vaccaro's since around 1995. Every time we come in we have enjoyed everything. This past time was no different. There was a small issue with my husband's cake but it was quickly fixed and I feel that they went above and beyond which we were even expecting. The staff was friendly and service was quick. We will be back soon.

I have gone here in the past and was always impressed with the freshness of the cookies. I bought over a pound of a variety of cookies which I picked out. All the cookies were stale not like other times. My visit was on 3/30, not sure if it was a slow week and the cookies were just not sold from the weekend prior but it was highly disappointing

I last visited Vaccaro's nearly 30 years ago. At the time, I thought their cannoli was pretty darn good. Through the years, I'd built it up in my head as being the best. So on a recent trip to Baltimore, I made sure to revisit Vaccaro's and give their cannoli another go. It wasn't at all what I remembered. It was BETTER. This cannoli was off the charts amazing! The ricotta filling was like velvet. So flavorful and not too sweet. The shell was crispy perfection. And the whole experience was, without a doubt, the best cannoli I've ever eaten. If you're in Baltimore you have to stop here. Have you even had a cannoli if you haven't had one from Vaccaro's?

We stopped by 2/12. We got in line behind 18 others waiting in line.NO SOCIAL DISTANCING AT ALL. Two young guys were trying to handle orders ,and they were overwhelmed. At one point, I counted 21 people in line. If you have been there, you know it’s a small store. Finally, we bought 1 pound of cookies. Not remotely exceptional

We stopped by here to pick up some delicious pastries after a wonderful dinner in Little Italy a week ago last Thursday. I remembered this place from before and was delighted to return. The place was busy, full of patrons and mouthwatering aroma. There was a small line fortunately, as it gives us an opportunity to view all the amazing choices! My Honey and I decided on a couple chocolate Eclairs and a couple plain cream puffs. The Eclairs were HUGE and soooooo delicious! The cream puffs were very good also. Next time we are going to try a selection of cannolis as there were so many to choose from I was a bit overwhelmed. The staff was very friendly and our pastries were reasonably priced. Do yourself a favor and stop by here and reward yourself.
