Unless you are going on off hours, be prepared to wait. The cannolis here are arguable the best in the city but don’t let that overshadow the other excellent options. I even got a strawberry shortcake 🍰 from here for my birthday and it was delectable. My recommendation, get what you are going there to get and anything else that gets you excited, it’s gonna be amazing. They also take credit cards 💳😮‍💨

We picked up a selection of pastries during a recent visit to Philadelphia. Amazing! Everything was perfect, fresh, and tasty. You can tell they use quality ingredients. The fruit based pastries weren't loaded up with sugar. The fruit fillings were so good.

When we checked out and it was $21 for a small box of cookies, I thought to myself “these better be the best Italian cookies I’ve ever had in my life” ….and it only took a few bites from a sampling of our cookie selection to confirm they are indeed the best cookies I’ve ever had in my life. Take all of my money!!! So delicious!

I couldn't resist going inside Isgro Pastries when I was in the Italian Market neighborhood in Philly. What a gem of a place. It's a one of a kind bakery that transports you right to Italy with it's amazing cookies and pastries. On my recent visit in early November I had some of the best cookies in my entire life from here. It's a charming bakery with so many delightful desserts. A family run business since 1904 and an absolute gift to Philadelphia. Isgro Pastries is amazing.

Hands down the BEST cannoli I’ve ever had. And believe me, I know cannoli. I’m a connoisseur of sorts. I’ve had them in Italy, New York, Boston, and pretty much anywhere else they have them. Unless you’re on a flight to Italy, these are going to be your best bet, even then, I’d do a side by side taste test and they might actually win. So do it. Just go. Get a cannoli or three. You won’t regret it! And if you do, then sorry, you don’t know a good Italian cannoli.

Excellent bakery!!! Chocolate cake and biscotti are fantastic!!! Prices are reasonable and being available via Doordash allowed me to surprise my son for his birthday.

Some of the most authentic Italian pastries in the city of Philadelphia. The Jimmy butter cookies are always fresh and the ricotta cookies are out of this world. Friendly service and overall great experience every time you step foot in the door.

I took decided to try Isgro bakery today because I missed the traditional Italian pastries my grandparents would serve at Christmas. I arrived at the back of the line at 10am. It was down on block and around the corner! There was a fun and festive atmosphere and comraderie amongst all those waiting. Staff constantly circulated through the line with trays of cookies and shots of amaretto or anisette! About 45 minutes later, I received my number ticket to go inside and I waited a short time inside for the customers ahead of me to get their treats and pay. The bakery was still well stocked with cookies, cakes and pastries despite having nonstop customers since they opened that morning. I chose some delicious smelling amd fresh sposfogliatella, fruit tarts loaded with fresh fruit and an almond horn. I shared these delicious treats with my mom who agreed that they were so fresh and tasty, just like the pastries we shared many years ago with my Italian family at Christmas. I will definitely be returning here to sample some more of their treats!!
