Mike’s Pastry
Mike’s Pastry is founded in 1946. It is located in Boston’s historic North End on Hanover Street. Michael Mercogliano (the “Mike” behind the famed Mike’s Pastry) created the one-of-a-kind cannoli that keeps loyal Bostonians and tourists coming from around the world to enjoy. Mercogliano is the owner of the bakery since 1946 and after that given the ownership to his stepson, Angelo Papa, who has been running the bakery. Mercogliano moved to the North End when he was only 12 years old with his family straight off the boat from Italy. Here there were no pastry classes or any educational resources for learning cake decorating back then. Then Mike decided to learn from his cousin’s bakery next door where he fell in love with the craft and began assembling the perfect cannoli. Mike’s has a signature white box with bright blue font tied with a string bow, which you’ll see pedestrians holding as they explore Boston and take their pastries to go. These loyal customers include everyone from presidents to tourists to local Bostonians. The bakery is famous for its cannoli and lobster tails. Mike’s is one of the best-known Italian bakeries in Boston. It has started operating at various locations like Cambridge’s Harvard Square. Somerville’s Assembly Row and TD Garden. It has become the Boston tradition to visit Mike’s pastry with friends, families, college, or for any other events.
