Visited here after dinner on our recent trip. Wonderful atmosphere. Every employee still had a smile an hour before closing. We sampled a variety of treats- rum cake, amaretto cheesecake, pistachio cheesecake, and cream horns. Amaretto and pistachio were our favorites.

Angelo Brocato has been serving up amazing gelato, Italian ice, and pastries in New Orleans for over 100 years. We tried many different things, but the straciatella gelato and bananas foster cheesecake stood out. Great stop after a good dinner, and the line wrapped down the street by the time we left. We will be back!

The line out the door says it all! Very creamy and luscious Gelato and definitely worth the wait. Also tried the fig cookies which were amazing.

Its always a treat to swing by whenever youre in the neighborhood of mid city Orleans for delicious Italian goodies.

Great cookies! Didnt try the gelato. A little out of the way but a short drive from downtown and worth it.

Can’t talk now. Mouth full of cannoli. Not sharing. SO GOOD!!!#WillBeSoSickByTheTimeILeaveNewOrleans ... sick but happy 🥰😋☺️#NewOrleans #EatingMyWayThroughNewOrleans #RoadTrip #CarCamping #Cannoli #ItalianPastries #HappyTummy #GoGoGinger

A New Orleans treasure, I love going here and sampling some of their esoteric treats, like Torroncino, but the coffee could be better

Such an amazing place. Have been going since I was a little kid. Bought my own kids and husband for the first time. EVERYTHING was sooooo delicious. Wish I could go every week.

A cute place to sit a minute and enjoy your gelato. Love this place.

The best of the best! The quintessential NOLA Italian dessert spot.Totally worth the cholesterol consequences 😍

Oh, how I love this place. I literally stop by every Thursday night after grad school. Im not even a licorice fan, but those anise drops are amazing. They were actually out of them a few weeks ago, but one of the ladies ran in the back and was able to find some for me. She even dropped a few extra in my box. I am a big fan of their ricotta cake, blondies, and Napoleons as well. Recently saw them on a television show where they talked about the cannolis. I have to agree that they are some of the best in the world. The store is always clean and I love that they rotate some of the items so that there is always something new each time you come in. I havent tried the gelato, but it looks amazing and people are always there buying it. I will be there this Thursday like clockwork to get my sweet tooth fix. Cannot recommend these folks enough. This is true New Orleans!

Soooo good! We had ice cream and I got a cookie and my husband got some kind of rum cake. Everything was perfect! The ice cream was so creamy and had such a great flavor. The rum cake was super moist but not mushy. There are so many things I want to try so we will definitely be back.

Ive always seen the longest lines in this shop - and now I know why! They have the most delicious Gelato! I will also recommend the fig cookies.

Consistently delicious! Does anything else matter?This place seems to employ mostly teenagers Im sure that keeps the cost down as they generally have a lot of people behind the counter to keep things going smoothly since their customer volume is so high. Everything Ive ever had was delicious and fresh and always keeps me coming back for more.

A must visit for anyone vacationing in NOLA.. I think all the locals already know this place

Great place in old town New Orleans to eat bakery or dessert. I highly recommend the gelato, it is ultra smooth and very flavorful. There are a lot of small pastries that make great gifts if you want to take some things home for friends and family.

There was a line to get in but it moved very fast. The staff was friendly and speedy. Great selection of gelato and other treats.

Ive been going here with my family and friends almost all my life!The stuffed cannolis are my favorite treat, the lemon ice is my favorite Italian ice!!

Authentic Italian pastry that is not too sweet. There are too many different kinds of cookies to choose from, the pecan melt away was really good, and the cannoli is made to order. Absolutely wonderful cappuccino! The shop is keep in antique condition, perfect to relax and enjoy the treats.Tip: come early to avoid the crowds, have your order ready to move along the line. Antique seating inside, and wonderful cheerful staff.

You have to love this place. Authentic Italian pastries in the heart of New Orleans. Its one of those places your family has been going to for generations. #Geauxeat

Absolutely wonderful little place!! Staff was super friendly!! Treats were amazing! Try the Custard Horn!!

It doesnt get any better than this. The cookies are so delicious just like when I grew up my Aunt used to make St Joseph alter cookies and these are almost as good. The coffee is delicious I love cappuccino from here. My daughters favorite is the spumoni ice cream its amazing

This is a cute little location to enjoy some of the best gelato in the city. I also highly recommend their apple strudel and cannoli!

Wonderful Italian bakery! We visited twice while in New Orleans and greatly enjoyed our treats both times. The gelato is a can’t miss! Stracciatella is an absolute favorite! In my opinion their Italian pastries (i.e. cannoli) are better than their French pastries (i.e. éclair) - the cannoli was excellent! We’ll definitely come again next time we’re in New Orleans!

Nice little spot! Stopped in for an Italian ice too cool off and ended up with a cannoli and spumoni as well! The ac was great and the staff friendly! Stop in if you have a sweet tooth or need a cool dessert.

The place has delicious Italian desserts. Their ice cream flavors are great specially the salted caramel.

Always worth finding the parking spot. Stopping in for a sweet treat in Mid-City? Brocatos is always great. After the first 100 years they have really nailed it. From Italian cookies and pastries. To the homemade gelatos and ice cream and thier famous lemon ice. Be sure to try the seasonal fruit ice treats. It changes regularly, and its always good. They make everything themselves there in Mid-City. It is the perfect post dinner date spot for desert and espresso.

The best, just absolutely the best for your Italian desserts.I had a cream puff and an affagoto. Please get anything and everything you want from this menu! It is an experience!

Great ice cream place! They are typically really busy, but the line moves quickly. Friendly and helpful employees.

Great gelato in traditional and some not-so-traditional flavors. Pastries, tarts, and top-notch canolli, filled and dipped on the spot.

The pastries look amazing. I was overwhelmed with options. I ended up trying the Amaretto Cheesecake. It was very dry. Not much flavor. I was disappointed. But my hubby had some gelato and it was so decadent.

No trip to New Orleans is complete without a pilgrimage to Angelo Brocatos. Desserts and atmosphere are pitch perfect. Most of the clientele are local, because this is just a great Gelateria.

Visiting New Orleans from Oklahoma and have not tasted authentic Italian pastries since I moved out of New York 16 years ago. Recommended by a local and were very glad we went because everything was delicious!

Love this place! The gelato is delicious and their pastries are awesome too. They can get pretty busy on the weekend evenings, but the line usually moves fast.

Authentic gelato and sweets!

No need to wonder why they have been around since 1905. You need to go there and taste the many reasons why. Bring me some back with you! Of course,the staff is just as great!!

Love brocatos . Pam miss Macky. Are the best. Like family. All the rest are a great team also. Busy,yet very pleasant and attentive. 😋💯❤

What an amazing place. To have a cannoli filled on demand is fantastic. The cakes and all the baked goods were just right. No wonder they’ve been in business for over a 100 years. I did a FaceTime sessions with my kids while we were hear and my kids were upset that we went there without them so they demanded that we ship them some cake back to California.

Fabulous place for gelato and pastries. I would highly recommend it!

Get the salted caramel ice cream. That is all ye know on Earth, and all ye need to know.

Everything in Angelos is delicious. I visit occasionally now that I no longer live in the city, and upon my arrival I discovered that they have even expanded their menu and now have a large array of desserts. I stick to all the italian treats and I love every single one. This place is well worth the visit.

Nice Italian ice cream store with good tiramisu!

Absolutely spectacular! The gelato was smooth and flavorful. I got praline flavor. The counter staff was very polite and quick on their feet. I loved the atmosphere. Very old world, but not stuck up. Comforting, even. The location was easy to access and wasnt sketchy. I wanted to eat everything! They have cakes, cookies, pies and pastries as well. I can see why theyve been open for over 100 years. Highly recommend!

Spumoni, rum custered, strawberry short cake gelato

Great pastries at a great price point. The cappuccino could be a bit better, but we all enjoyed it.

The spumoni ice cream was the bomb as well as the Louisiana strawberry ice my grandson really enjoyed Roman candy it was his first time eating it he was born in Texas but his dad is from New Orleans and his dad always ate the Roman candy so he really enjoyed eating the room and candy that his dad enjoyed as a boy I hadnt had this spumoni in years and I really enjoyed it my family really enjoyed themself at Angela brocatos today and we definitely will be back. My mom brought us here as kids when it was on Franklin avenue and I had to bring my grandson here to enjoy himself. This is definitely a Louisiana staple so glad its still here so that my grandson can enjoy it

Delicious Italian treats, the counter service is not always the best.

My family absolutely LOVES this place. When we first moved to New Orleans a year and a half ago, this was one of the first places I just had to check out and Im so glad I did!! Simply the best tiramisu Ive had since I was in Italy, the coffee is outstanding and I cannot recommend the cannoli enough. My daughters love the gelato so much, and Im not ashamed to say weve had dessert for dinner because Brocatos is just that outstanding. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming! One of our favorite places in the City.

Went in today after my Doctors appointment and it was fantastic. You never disappoint...Dan is doing a great job

Cant stop eating here the ice cream is so good. Rum custard is a big winner.. eat it and tell me you dont agree. The blondie is also amazing as are the fresh made cannolis.

This place is a tradition for me every time Im down in New Orleans. Usually go for the gelato but you bet your sweet bippy Im getting some pastries and Italian soda while Im here too, yes I am!

Yum yum yum yum yumminess!!!!! Try a cannoli and the spumoni!! Take home bags of cookies! You will not regret it. The staff are very nice and you feel transported to an older era of family run eatery, enjoying recipes that must be traditions past down through generations.

I’m a regular and have been for years. The staff are great, the ambiance is wonderful, and the gelato is awesome!Get the gelatoccino with pistachio nut gelato and whipped cream. *chef’s kiss*

What an amazing place. Delicious food and a great environment. I will be sure to visit every time Im in the neighborhood. The lemon custard with pine nuts was the winner.

Love this place. The Baba Rhum is just amazing. Love all the gelato flavors too. The staff was really helpful and nice.

I had the passion fruit gelato, it was delicious and fresh tasting. There were a lot of flavors and other pastries to try from. The staff was very polite and happy. I thought the gelato price was higher than it should be, but it was delicious so I would come again

Quaint, classic New Orleans spot. Jasmine flavor gelato was refreshing and tiramisu was pretty good. One of my go-tos when Im in Nola. Highly recommend

This is not our first time here but I can say the service is not as great. They do not lack employees but the employees lack manners & compassion. We stood in line to buy our cannolis. Then again, I made the line to buy 2 bags of biscottis. I moved along with the line. When I get to the register, since I didnt have a server, the heavy-set blonde girl asked me to move away from the register so she can ring up her customer. The customer is front of him at the other register noticed what happened & offered me to go in front of him. When the blonde server finished with her customer, she totally ignored me & went to serve someone else. The guy who offered me to go in front looked at me & couldnt believe the girl left me there. After the gentleman left, I was ignored for a second time & I had to speak up almost rudely if someone could ring me up. I made the line, not once, but twice, just like everyone else. This is just untrained & unprofessional employees who do not care.

Best cannolis in New Orleans! Always fresh. The canoli isnt made until you order it. 😊

Amazing fresh delicacies. The tiramisu cake was amazing!

My favorite bakery in NOLA. I was a weekly customer after grad school every Thursday night. Now, I stop by every Sunday afternoon. Regardless of day and time, the store is clean and the customer service is top notch. They are always friendly and willing to offer suggestions as well as information about their products. I make it a point to try something new each visit. So far, I have not been disappointed. Super prices. Small stuff like melt-aways, anise drops, and and ricotta cookies are less than a dollar each. I grab a weeks worth of small bites and usually spend about 12 bucks. Best cannolis on Earth. I have only tried their gelato once because Im usually late and want to get to Venezia up the street before they close, but it was amazing as well and seems to be one of the most popular items they sell. HIGHLY recommend this bakery. Dont be discouraged if there is a line. They move quickly and it is worth the wait. People leaving 1 and 2 stars because they CLAIM they werent immediately taken care of dont understand how the bakery works. You dont rush to the register. Thats where you pay for your food...not order it. You catch one of the multiple people going out of their way to help everyone IN ORDER. Speak up.

Best Cannoli in Louisiana.....the absolute best. Expect a crowd.

The most authentic Sicilian bakery outside of taking a trip to Sicily. Ive loved this place my entire life.

AMAZING pastries and gelato, What else is their to say, besides YUM!

Great gelato. Great pastries. Always.

O M G! So worth driving miles just to cheat on your diet. Hey... that is what I did. 🤷🏽‍♀️ The staff is as sweet as the pastries. I enjoyed e v e r y t h I n g. It is sad how many calories I consumed.On a side note, do NOT park in the Smoothie King parking lot. They will tow you.

There is no pastry shop that compares in New Orleans. Romantic, cozy, old school Italian spot with fresh filled cannoli, and delicious gelato.

The most authentic Italian ices and pastries in the south. Wonderful place that my 92 year old aunt brings me to.

So delicious.Came for date night

Delicious Cannolis.(Vanilla Best). Friendly Staff. Free Street Parking. Good Prices.

Loved it! Pistachio and rum raisin. Heck, it tasted like real rum?!?! 👀

This place is AMAZING. homemade pastries, gelato, cookies, everything! Its like a little piece of the NorthEast US (think Philladelphia, New York or New Jersey) came to New Orleans and I mean that in the best way!

Very good!Everything was very tasty.Cannolis were freshly filled and therefore very crunshy. It also had a little taste of king cake with what I think was a little cinnamon added to the shells.The only thing slightly different from Italian was the amount of sugar in everything. I wish they didnt make everything this sweet. I felt a little deprived of how good these actually taste due to the sweetness. Most traditional Italian confectionaries I have been to do not add sugar as much as most American ones do.

This is our most favorite place to get a delicious sweet treat.

One would think that with the constant line out the door and the extremely high quality products that this place would be expensive. It is very affordable. You can grab one of the best and fair portioned slices of tiramisu for less than $4.00. They also have hard to find items such as spumoni. Everything is done right and with care. Even though there normally is a long line, it moves very quickly as their staff is on point and ready to make things happen quickly. Definitely friendly place to take family, a date, the kids, anyone would enjoy this place.

Best cannolis in the south! Love the biscotti Regina and the Spumoni is to die for. Delizioso!

It helps to know what the pastries you are selling are made with, but its mainly always a very young staff so thats to be expected. A little frustrating trying to pick out something you like if they cant correctly describe what it is. Its Italian pastries so you have to know your stuff lol. Luckily, I had an Italian with me to tell me what it was as the young girl working didnt know how to describe what it was. Maybe tasting and knowing the ingredients that make the flavor in it would help that (anise in particular).All in all, this is a staple in New Orleans for 114 years as it is the most authentically made Italian gelato, pastries and packaged treats from Italy you will find in Nola.

Such delightful treats! Next time I go, I plan to try the ice cream! I appreciate how various the options and prices are. A nice way to end a meal after going to Venezias next door.

Good service and good icecream

Loved this place.Great Italian Deserts.Will Be Back.

Best Cannolli and Gelato anywhere!

Excellent pastry shop. Gelato and other Italian goodies. Friendly staff.

Loved the vanilla bean Gelato and the Tiramisu cake was delicious also! Great shop for dessert!

Ive been coming here for years. They have some of the best pastry in New Orleans! Although Ive havent personally tried it I understand their Gelato is also fabulous.

Their online order request form was super easy and reliable. I placed the order 2 days in advanced so if there was any problem I could call the day before to make sure they got it. (Which I recommend) Friendly and helpful staff!

Where to start. Through the door and lose yourself! Too many amazing memories hope this place lives forever. Love Angelo Brocatos

Amazing as always. This gem is always worth the trip

Tiramisu cake tasted good. Ice cream good as well but not top notch.

This place has been herr for so long and it is still so good. Even now through the pandemic. Love it.

Delicious authentic Italian cookies, pastries and ice cream. This is definitely my favorite dessert place!

My favorite place to go for a sweet treat! An absolute MUST for locals and tourists alike. The setting is very charming with vintage tables and chairs inside a modest space. There are rows of mouthwatering Italian pastries, hot coffee, and the most flavorful gelato! I would recommend the strawberry gelato. It is the best I have ever had. I LOVE IT HERE!

An all time favorite for sweets and scenery.

THE BEST BAKERY IN NEW ORLEANS, THEY ACTUALLY SUPPLY SOME LOCAL ITALIAN RESTAURANTS IN THE CITY! THEIR SELECTIONS ARE ENDLESS, TRY SEVERAL AND YOU DECIDE WHICH ONE IS BEST...IF YOU CAN! FROM THE CANNOLIS TO THE GELATOS! THEY ARE VERY BUSY, AND WITH COVID-19, THERE IS OFTEN A LINE WAITING, SO PLAN ON A 20 MINUTE WAIT, INCLUDING THE TIME THAT YOU WILL SPEND TRYING TO CHOOSE FROM THE MORE NUMEROUS ITEMS THAN YOU WILL EXPECT!!! ALL DELICIOUS. AND THEIR STAFF ARE WARM AND CORDIAL, READY TO OFFER ANY INFORMATION ON THEIR SWEETS AND MAY EVEN OFFER A SAMPLE OF SOME...THE PRICES ARE A BIT HIGHER THAN A SUPERMARKET, BUT WELL WORTH IT! MY HUSBAND AND I GO TO THE THIS BAKERY (on North Carrollton in New Orleans) FOR DESSERT, AFTER DINNING AT VINCENTS ITALIAN RESTAURANT, FOR OUR DESSERT! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED, SO ENJOY!!!

Service terrific,product excellentI was shocked at prices,bit it is all hand made.Good special occasion spot for treats.

This place is a true gem with AMAZING pastries. The connollis and baba were divine. Highest quality bakery Ive been in a very long time. Best in the city, by far.

Great, made in-house, ice-cream and a fun atmosphere!

Nice place to unwind in the afternoon to have coffee and a treat. Everything looked too good and tasted even better

Best cannoli I have ever had!

Friendly service. Delicious Italian rum cake and lemon cookies!

Wow! Excellent gelato!! Canollis too!
