Satisfy your sweet tooth at Vaccaro’s Italian Pastry Shop! Established by Gioacchino Vaccaro, a native of Palermo, Italy, in 1956, this family-owned pastry shop has long been heralded as one of Baltimore’s best spots for authentic Italian pastries.

Your taste buds will be delighted as soon as you step through the doors and enjoy the atmosphere of this charming, sweet-smelling bakery. Here, you can choose between pastries, gelatos, Italian cakes, salads, paninis, beer, coffee, and so much more! There’s quite the selection to choose from, even savory options, with a little something for everyone. However, it’s worth noting that Vaccaro’s is best known for its rum cake and cannolis, both of which are created using old-world techniques and time-tested recipes.

Best of all, Vaccaro’s is located just moments from your apartment at The Berkleigh!
