Anything you get here is delicious! The cannolis , the calzones (ask the clerk to warm one up for you!), the raisin bread , and the samples. Friendly staff and good prices, too.
My friend recommended this place to me and it's so good! They have so many different pastries on their menu as well as pizza . Try anything and I bet you'll like it!
So many different pasteries to choose from and they are all to die for. They also have fresh bread , pizza , and rice balls . Stopping by is like a tradition anytime I'm in Boston.
Can't decide on sweets or pizza for your late night snack ? At Bova's, you don't have to choose. Get both and save your regrets for the next morning.
Fantastic North End bakery , on par with the more famous options in the neighborhood but less crowded with tourists . Open 24/7, always there to meet your needs.
Lovefood voted their strawberry cheesecake as the best in Massachusetts. Creamy cheesecake , strawberries , strawberry sauce and fresh whipped cream
Pastries are delicious! Decent prices, no long waits like Mikes Pastry but the pastries are just as good - if not better! Cannoli 's are always a good go to.
Best go-to for pastries and late night food in north end. Highly recommend the chocolate dipped cannoli and lobster tails .
Bakery that specializes in tiramisu , cream puffs & calzones . In 1892 was site of Greenie Store owned by Rubinowitz family. This store moved in 1908 & later became Stop & Shop! More info in blog.<LINK> Read more
The layer cookies are good, the coconut bar and chocolate eclair was delicious. I didn’t so much care for the cannoli’s .
Go here on a Friday or Saturday night to avoid the long lines at Modern and Mikes. Just as good with far shorter lines .
Pastry/dessert heaven. They have everything: Italian cookies , cannolis , and various other flaky sweets. They're also open 24/7!
Pecan pie was amazingly delicious. Cannoli were barely above average. Cheesecakes looked good, didn't get to try.
This is the spot if you need a late night lobster tail or just something less touristy than the bakeries on Hanover Street.
They may be known for more traditional Italian pastries , but the red velvet whoopee pies are the best I've had!
The rainbow cookies were perfect. The big rice ball was so delicious
I love grabbing a slice of cheese and a cannoli . Get a stromboli if they're available
The Florentine cannoli may just be the best pastry I've ever eaten.
Forget Mike's versus Modern, this is where it's at. Especially for you night-owls!
The cannoli was really crispy .. and the filling was definitely not authentic . Too much stuff and too sweet rather than the traditional ricotta filling
24 hour bakery with tons of tasty baked goods and treats
Going to miss this place , only 24 hour pizza , sandwiches and really good baked items
Bova's has the best pastries in the North End (without the line ) and they're open 24 hours for when you need a cannoli at 3:47am.
Ricotta pie and tiramisu are excellent, I haven't found a better bakery in town yet!
Yummy pastries and breads . Helpful staff
Best Florentine cannoli ... Like English toffee with ricotta cream. Die for!!
Cookies available 24 hours a day? Your 3:00 am self will thank you.
3 years ago after leaving a show at 2 am with friends, i got a calzone from bova with a large rock baked into it. i haven't returned since.
