Palermo’s Bakery

Online ad says that they do organic baked goods. When I called they said they didn’t or wouldn’t do a cake with organic ingredients. I wouldn’t have called without the misleading info that pops up with the Google search — please consider updating the website and therefore not misleading people!

Just visited Palermos for the first time and it was great. the person at the counter was so nice and gave us a free sample after ordering a platter for christmas. not only is the customer service great but the dessert tasted great, awesome experience!!!

Very typical Italian pastry. Good service, friendly people. Enormous choices of pastries there.

Horrible experience — won’t be back! Came here for Motown night. Completely disorganized & nasty & rude beyond belief. I didn’t expect gourmet food but what they served was practically inedible. Even the bread was mediocre & it’s a bakery! Cost $ 25 pp. After waiting 45 minutes for ice (the owner forgot to buy it), They gave us bagged lettuce (supposed to be salad), plates with ziti (mushy) & meatballs (not good). Everyone at our table had 2 meatballs except my friend had only 1. I called the waitress over & said my friend only got 1 meatball. First she says well that’s how it’s scooped out. Then says that’s not «part of it» when I questioned what that meant, the waitress yelled at me «well then give her one of yours!» About 5 minutes later she came back & threw a plate of meatballs on the table. Given how nasty & pissed off she was, none of us trusted to eat those meatballs.
The last straw was that they forgot my husbands dinner (he had pre-​ordered chicken) & tried to pass off frozen eggplant & a shriveled up stuffed pepper. We asked several times to see Anna the owner but she refused to come out to talk to us. At that point we left –never going back.

Went with friends for dessert. Sat outside listening to a live entertainer singing Italian ballads and watching people dance. The pastries were decent and the service was very attentive like your relatives were taking care of you. It was a nice find and I would definitely return.

This place is great! It’s like being in NY or a pastry shop (aka Bar) in Sicily. I’ve been to both.
They have Carrtocci, Iris, Sfinci and ricotta flown in from Sicily.
The owners are super nice and generous.
The only bad thing is that this guy who grew up in Sicily now lives in Jupiter and will be putting a lot of miles on my lease driving to Boynton for a taste of home.
THANK YOU SIGNORA !

I called to ask about cakes and the lady was rude and seemed pissed when I asked if they had a red velvet cake… After saying they open at 9 she quickly hanged up on me while I was in the middle of saying thank you…

Finally a Real Italian bakery in Florida!!! I love this place, so yummy! I always have to stop by every time I’m in town! The pastries are awesome and the rice balls were so good! I wish they would open up a store in Orlando!

The worst Italian bakery I’ve ever tried. The cake I bought tasted like cardboard and the cookies my friend bought were no better than a box of supermarket cookies. The person that assisted us apparently was very busy although we were the only customers in the store because she was seriously impatient and short with us. Guess I’ll just have to keep baking!

HOW MUCH? HOW MUCH IS THAT PASTRY BEHIND THE WINDOW ?
Let’s sing along to the tune … how much is that doggy in the window. bow wow
What are the owners thinking or not thinking. How hard is it stick in little price tags ?
Maybe, they are ashamed or think that they will collect more or no one
is really concerned about prices.
Both, The Boys and Carmines are upfront and show their number$. No mysterie$
Anyone else hate asking over and over
Forget this place, like they forgot

This place sucks! they act like they are doing you a favor by taking your order very rude. Desserts are old, I bought a cheesecake and a few eclairs. Nasty publix has better quality.

great lively atmostphere, an italian bakery with great deserts and coffee.
Understand they serve dinners on Friday and Saturday
reservations trecommended
Live music

I grew up in NJ where the know how to make crumb cake. I have lived in LA for over 20 years and there are some reasonable substitutes but nothing as good as Palermo’s Bakery. The cheese Danish are also pretty fantastic — but it’s the crumb cake! The LA guy doesn’t need to go north for a fix anymore!

The Boynton/​Delray area is severely lacking in traditional bakeries and this place must be reaping all the benefits. All the while bringing me back to the golden summers of my youth in Long Island, NY. We got some donuts, a couple slices of cheesecake and a red velvet cupcake, all good and for a great price.

What a disappointment. I had heard such great things about this place, but their customer service was deplorable. When we walked in during posted business hours, we stood and checked out some pastries and attempted to make eye contact with the 6 – 7 employees standing about chatting. Finally, one turned and said, «Sorry, we’re closed.»
Previously, I had tried to order a cake through them. I found their cake prices had largely increased (from less than $ 30 to over $ 40 in a year). When I asked why, the girl retreated to the back, came back and offered a $ 6 discount. It was still too steep for me, but I wondered how many people overpaid for their cakes.
Their products may be delicious, but they are mostly overpriced, and you probably won’t get a smile while you’re there. One guy said it best, must be why they’re empty.

Mmmmmm, Italian pastries. I grew up in NYC eating the best of the best, and now I live in Austin where there is limited access to such deliciousness.
While visiting Boynton Beach I did a little Unilocal search, and was not disappointed in Palermo. The staff was very friendly and gave me a free delicious marzipan cookie to try. I was blown away by it!
We also had an éclair, a cannoli cream filled puff, and a chocolate coconut molten mini cake. I should have picked up some of their phenomenal looking breads and biscotti as well. Next time for sure!

If you are familiar with NY little Italy, you will love Palermo’s! Butter cookies melt in your mouth, NaPoleon are creamy and sweet, Connoli are made fresh with real ingredients! Must go & try!

Great bakery, fast service.
It sucks they are closed on Mondays

I was on a mission to find a place that makes specialty cakes yesterday. One step in here and you won’t go anywhere else. I was taken away by all the Italian pastries they have. Of course, my hubby had to get a box full of them to take home. I love the tiramisu from here. It was so light and fluffy. The chocolate dipped strawberry was super delicious as well. Chris is absolutely happy to find an Italian bakery that is only 5 minutes away from our house. Bring on the pounds ;)

I bought a tiramisu cake here for a friend’s birthday party a few months back. The cake was huge, fresh and absolutely delish! There were rave reviews from all the guests and the whole thing was devoured in a day.
They sell lots of cute Italian pastries here. The owner let me sample this mini blueberry tart and I almost died. The crust was crisp and sweet, the custard a creamy goodness and the blueberries perfectly ripe.
I will definitely use this place from now on when buying sweet delectables for any sort of engagement. Unfortunately, they are closed on Monday so I had to go to a not so good bakery nearby yesterday and was so very disappointed with that bakery. But in turn, it has made me a loyal follower of Palermo’s!
Only took off one star because this place is cash only. Pretty inconvenient in a time when people don’t typically carry cash around with them.
