South End Cafe and Pastry Shop
262 Brockett St, Glastonbury, CT
Crema's Take
“South End Cafe and Pastry Shop is a beloved neighborhood gem where the pastries are genuinely exceptional, from their standout ham and cheese croissants to ricotta-filled cannoli that locals rave about as the best around. The bright, clean space with well-maintained bathrooms makes it perfect for lingering over coffee and breakfast, whether you're meeting a friend or treating yourself to a quiet morning, and the friendly staff clearly takes pride in what they're serving.”

The food here is amazing. The atmosphere is amazing. The coffee is amazing. But I do have a problem there the service I get from the young man front with a hat . I ordered two breakfast blts and added cheese he repeated my order back to me breakfast BLT with cheese . Brings out two BLT’s not even what I ordered no egg not even the bread that I wanted that comes with a breakfast sandwich . I tell him this is not what I ordered. He goes you want an egg added to? . No, I want what I ordered you do this every time I go there I don’t understand it. I feel like he doesn’t want me there. And I go there at least three times a week. This will be the last time I go there and it’s a shame because their food is amazing. Coffee is amazing but this kid always gets my order wrong even when he repeats himself to me. And to not even offer to fix my order. I can tell he just don’t want my service there or this one kid doesn’t want me there. I will never go back or my coworker that was with me
Rare is the day I find a place I both want to keep secret so it doesn't get too busy when I visit and yet shout from the rooftops how amazing it is. I just had hands down the best Ham ans Cheese croissant and Macaroon I have every had. These are my go to safe choice items for a Cafe and they went so far above my expectations I cannot wait to come back and try everything else on their menu. Wonderful staff and cozy locals only feel. Worth the trip. Skip the big box coffee shops and stop here!
Always love coming here. We wanted to get a treat after our lunch and knew I wanted something from South End. Their ricotta filling is the best around, so I got a cannoli and my husband got the giant oreo cream puff. Both were delicious!
Have visited multiple times. Staff is friendly. They have good coffee, delicious treats and a clean open space. Bathrooms are available, spacious and well maintained. I would say the coconut macaroons and cupcakes are the best. They sell pastry, cookies, biscuits, cup cakes, cakes, cannoli. Items are priced by the pound and packed in nice boxes so it makes for a great treat to bring for family, coworkers and friends.
Cute small cafe/bakery with good food! My first time here and I enjoyed a bacon egg and cheese on a croissant with a coffee. I also ordered some Italian cookies and a pumpkin muffin! I will be back again! Enjoyed everything especially the pumpkin muffin :)
