Golden Crust Bakery
Chinatown • $
A tiny basement bakery in Chinatown where chewy mochi meets mango ice cream and Japanese garlic salt bread disappears before you make it home. The prices are shockingly gentle for bread this well made.

Wishing Cup
Downtown
Wishing Cup is a minority- and family-owned cafe where every order helps grant community wishes. Stop by for hand-crafted lattes, hearty focaccia sandwiches, and homemade treats that turn your daily coffee into kindness.
Maple & Ash
D Street / West Broadway • $$$$
A swanky Seaport steakhouse where dinner ends with a build-your-own Sundae Tower: three scoops plus a tray of sprinkles, gummy bears, and whipped cream. Steaks like the black-garlic-crusted Eisenhower hold their own.
Somerville Chocolate
Ward Two
Somerville Chocolate is a micro-batch bean-to-bar shop where owner Eric leads free tastings of experimental flavors like Hop Dark and saffron white chocolate. The soft serve skips industrial processing for a gritty texture and pure cocoa hit that finishes bright and fruity.
Delini Gelato
West Roxbury
Delini Gelato scoops silky, house-made Italian gelato with flavors bold enough to make you close your eyes. Watch them press fresh blood oranges and bake waffle cones while you debate between Sicilian Pistachio and caramelized banana.
Gori & Co.
Jamaica Plain
Gori & Co. turns fluffy Japanese shaved ice into edible art. Layered flavors like Blueberry Crumble with miso maple whip and ceremonial grade Matcha with red bean taste as playful as they sound.

Frequently asked questions
How are these desserts in Boston chosen?
I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Is everything here still happening?
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
How can Outgoing help me find something I’ll actually want to do?
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
Do I need an account to use Outgoing?
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Is Outgoing free?
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
