I think that Rhode Island has some of the best Italian bakeries in the northeast. My parents and grandparents were regulars at Superior Bakery and Calvitto's in Cranston, and De Petrillo's has become one of my favorites recently.

What are some of your favorite Rhode Island Italian bakeries? I'd love to try some new places!

LaSalle Bakery in Providence. I prefer the one on Admiral St.

Don’t quote me on it but I’m fairly certain it’s owned by an Italian family and they tend to have Italian items on offer regularly, but I’m not sure if it’s exactly what you’d call an Italian bakery by definition.

No thank you. Lasalle is by far the most expensive and overrated bakery in the state. No Italian grandma would tell you to go to lasalle.

Go to Deluise, better and cheaper in every way.

I agree that LaSalle is overpriced, but I must admit I’ve never eaten anything from Deluise that impressed me. What would you recommend? Maybe I’ll swing by in the morning and give it another go.

Everyone has their favorites, I’m sure. I’m not saying this is the best but Buonno’s on Hartford Ave. is really good and worth a try.

Excellent, thanks for the suggestions! Every once in a while I like to swing by a bakery for breakfast on the weekend. I need to do it more often. Chain donut shops aren’t the vibe.

Solitros in Knightsville. They beat the original Italian by a mile. Best pizza strips north of Westerly.

I miss Crugnales. La Salle is pretty good though. And I’ve always liked Pastryland in Greenville.

Is that the place that used to be off Atwells Ave. near the entrance to rt. 10? If it is, I didn't even know they still existed. Used to be my favorite, them and the late, lamented Sciala's Golden Crust.

The best bread was from Mario’s on Douglas. When Mario retired, the best went with him. 😭

None of these suck - they're actually all good - we should be compiling the complete list of everyone of them that's better than average - they're going away one by one..... Crugnale's had great sheet pizza.

Delouise Bakery in Oaklawn ave..... and also have a nice pumpkin pie recipe that I have been unable to replicate. This year's pumpkin pie was better than last year's (i think last year he may have had trouble finding his products and had to substitute)
