Pasticceria Mignon In Lecce

We discovered this pastry shop by chance online. We entered and were greeted by a kind, friendly, and very sweet lady, who is 88 years old, and her 90-year-old husband, who is still working with the dough... excellent, artisanal, and well-filled desserts, because taste is not just pleasing to the eye... a place full of all kinds of sweets, with a lot of Salento tradition... I ordered two mixed trays of pastries and made a great impression at home in Brindisi... I highly recommend this pastry shop and the very sweet owners... Thanks again for everything... see you soon... Fabrizio from the city of Brindisi

I haven't lived in Lecce for 24 years, and I don't know how I've never seen this pastry shop. Maybe because from the outside it looks more like a bar. I don't know. In any case, just walking past yesterday, I was struck by a wonderful aroma. It reminded me of the sweets my grandfather used to make, as he had a bakery back then. And indeed, here you'll find a wonderful couple who have been baking typical Salento sweets for about 60 years, prepared in the workshop right behind the sales area. I love these places that maintain a vintage feel, the pastry shop of yesteryear with traditional desserts that I've found delicious. So, whether you're visiting from out of town or even Lecce residents like me, come on over!

Best pasticciotto, cutest pastry shop

A traditional pastry shop, with those sweets you remember from Sunday lunches at your grandmother's. The owners clearly love their job and receive countless compliments. If you're looking for a trendy boulangerie/bakery atmosphere with top-notch service, look elsewhere.

The pastries are simply excellent! The manager was lovely and kindly let us taste some specialties. Thank you for this wonderful discovery right in the center of Lecce ☀️
