Baklava in Merrimack Valley?

I want to bring a baklava to a mercy meal tomorrow ...do you know of any local bakeries (Methuen area) in which I could buy a whole baklava, versus piecemeal?

Thanks!

    Thank you, guys. I ended up going to George's, since it was close to home. I was rushing and not thinking, so I didn't have the foresight to grab one to bring home. For the next family gathering, I want to try out a few, and will return to George's, try Korbanis (whose cookies I have loved in the past), and try to find Olymos in Lowell.

    Thanks again.

      Definitely call the Olymos Bakery in Lowell. Great food and a great family.

        I'd check out Korbani's of Georges.

          George's or Korbani's are the first two places that come to my mind too.

          I'd give J&M Subs in North Andover a shout. I've had the stuff they sell by the piece and it's pretty good. Maybe they can tell you where they get it or sell you a whole pan.

            I was thinking along those lines...seems like every pizza place in the Valley has decent to very good baklava by the slice, but even on the catering menus, I don't see a whole baklava as an option.
