Food was great! Staff was very personable and professional. Large aray of baked goods, deli goods and subs/ sandwiches. Very nostalgic shop. Like stepping into a piece of history. Interior is relatively small w/ limited outdoor seating. Parking of area can be hard to find, but food and service makes up for any inconvenience.
Perfect little Italian bakery & sub shop! It smelled of heavenly, fresh baked bread. It had beautiful Italian music playing in the he doorway so I had to stop in. We ordered two subs that were on perfect bread and full of flavor. My favorite thing they sell is the fresh bread candles by Rockport company that capture the smell of the bakery! Great stop in Gloucester!
Great little bakery/sandwich shop. Super friendly staff and the food was absolutely delicious. We went with two of their signature sandwiches and they were exactly what we were looking for in the sense of classic Italian subs. We got the to counter and saw they had lobster tail pastries and had to try that. Also fantastic. Great shop and will be back.
Delicious and HUGE sandwiches at a great price! It's a crowded and popular place but you won't be disappointed you waited a few minutes for one of their subs.
Small shop on Main Street in Gloucester. They have pastries and some stuff to purchase in store, however we fo there for their sandwiches and subs! Delicious...
Wonderful small bakery in Gloucester. 4 generations and going strong. As a child visiting, we got our bread there. Cookies by the box - sinfully good!!!
This is the BEST ITALIAN BAKERY I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy! Staff is very friendly and helpful. They have delicious and decadent pastries and SUCCULENT Sandwiches. You GOTTA GO!!!!
Great selection of subs. The main attraction for me are the pastries though: their custard cones are the best I've had in the US. Very fresh and really well made.

Omg the cannolis are delicious! Recommend if you are nearby to stop in and check them out. Lots of other tasty things and smells in there.
A Gloucester staple and the best sandwich shop anywhere.
You can get more or less any regular sub or sandwich you could elsewhere, but the real gems are those unique to Virgilio's. My all-time favorite is the St. Joseph sandwich, which I could eat forever, but the rest of the menu is not to be overlooked, especially the North Ender with balsamic vinegar or the Porky Joe for you pulled pork fans.
For you pastry fans, Virgilio's has a ton to choose from - more than I have had the chance to try. If you want a guaranteed satisfying after-sandwich treat, grab a cannoli.
Gloucester has a lot to choose from, but you should absolutely not pass up the chance to grab something from Virgilio's when you have the chance.
