Villani's Bakery
901 Pecan Ave, Charlotte, NC
Crema's Take
“Villani's Bakery is a Charlotte institution where the pastries steal the show—think perfectly crafted sfogliatelle and lobster tails you won't find anywhere else in the city, plus a red velvet cake that keeps people coming back for more. The coffee plays a supporting role to their exceptional baked goods and desserts, but it's the friendly staff and the genuine freshness of everything on the counter that makes this feel less like a quick grab and more like a neighborhood gathering spot where families actually want to linger.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

Nice bakery with plenty to choose from . I got the Pecan Maple cheesecake, Everything Bialys, Bacon Cheese Biscuit and some other things. Everything was good. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I have no complaints.

Hunted everywhere and found this is the only place in charlotte that sells sfogliatelle and lobster tails. They are made to perfection. I do try the tiramisu too but it was not too good, they had coconut shavings in it. The affogato was, however, REALLY good
