“Great Service! Excellent Food and Delicious Pastries“

“Loved this cute little place!!! My daughter and I were out and about, and wanted to get some coffee, but not from the regular “chain” coffee shop, so after a quick search, we headed to Metuchen. We were lucky enough to get parking right outside, and walked in to be pleasantly surprised by the esthetic vibe. Everything was super clean, and we were greeted right away by the super friendly employee. My daughter ordered a cappuccino and I got iced coffee. We also got a cheese and pesto savory pastry and a passion fruit and coconut tres leches dessert. Everything was delicious!!!!! Thanks for the enjoyable experience. We will definitely return.“

“Great ambiance, excellent prices, friendly staff, and delicious food.“

“Wow! So delighted at this amazing bakery in Westfield run by the most talented couple and now they have a new one in Morristown too! My son is so picky and adores their key lime pie, Boston Crème donuts and Snickerdoodle cookies ! And these are 5 star treats ! Enjoy and join their loyalty program too to save … what a gift to New Jersey ! 💙🩵“

“great“

“I have yet to have a cookie from here that I did not like! I have many favorites including triple chocolate, crumb cake, brookie, and chocolate covered banana, but they are always coming up with new & unique yummy flavors so that could change! I love buying a dozen at once and freezing most of them so I can enjoy them anytime; I’ve kept them as long as a year and they are still delicious.“

“La schiacciata e’ ottima, l’ambiente elegante ed accogliente. Golosi i panini, i dolci ed i croissant!“

“I am super impressed with this bakery! If I could give more stars, I would!! Our granddaughter loves macarons so I had the thought of ordering them for her birthday. I turned to google to find a company that would ship them. I was a little behind the game and ordered them on Monday, late afternoon, for a Friday delivery. I wasn't holding out too much hope that they'd arrive on that day since they were coming from NJ and being shipped to WI but I placed the order anyway with the requested date. But guess what! They arrived on the exact date! Not only that, but they were personalized with Happy Birthday and even her name on some of them! Additionally, they included a handwritten note with my message on it instead of something that was just printed off. They really went over and above my expectations! My granddaughter said each of the flavors were so delicious! I will definitely be ordering from them again in the future. What a wonderful company! (oh! and a side note, out of the companies I found that would ship - Izzy's was the most affordable! BONUS!!!)“

“Ate there on their covered patio area. Just coffee and a sweet treat. Got some bread and cookies to bring home. Never disappoints.“

“From price quote, to cake pickup, to eating I had a phenomenal experience. I splurged for my 30th birthday for a custom cake. La Bon was affordable for what I wanted which was amazing. Their staff was incredibly sweet, professional, and all around pleasant. And the cake? Oh my God. I couldn't ask for a better outcome. I provided a reference photo and the result was an exact match. Flavor wise? Impeccable. I don't know what it is about these cakes but it was hands down the best cake I've ever had in my life. It was decadent but not too sweet (especially with black frosting, I was pleasantly surprised), perfectly piped frosting, and perfectly light and flavorful strawberries and cream filling. I will 100% be trusting all my future cakes to la bon from now on!“

“They did a great job on a custom cake. Fair price, pretty and tasty.“

“Thank you making a great cake for my daughter Janelle Bridal Shower! The cake was very fresh and good! Very one loved it! I will alway get my cakes there! Thank you for help me getting in the car yesterday!!“

“This place is officially my go to local bakery! Victoria and her mom Laurence have been nothing but kind and helpful each time I’ve went in. My friends and family raved about the triple chocolate cake i picked up for my sisters birthday and my best friend and i enjoy a quiet breakfast and cafe on the weekends! The decor is so welcoming and bright. It’s a great place to sit, and relax! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious pastries and French imports. It’s a piece of home for my mom, as well! 🇫🇷🥖🥐🥮🧁🎂💕“

“Excellent bakery.I think the best!“

“Delicious breakfast and fresh baked goods!“

“This is my go to Colombian bakery. I have been a loyal customer since 2012.
Their menu is limited if you are planning to dine in, however, it is quite reliable and consistent. It is pure comfort food.

If you are not that adventurous, I highly recommend their empanadas de carne (beef and potatoes) and pan de bono (cheese bread). Those are usually the favorites of any picky eaters that join us 😁“

“We where looking for a place to make my son’s perfect Mickey Mouse cake and when I Found Roxanna cakes on instagram and saw her work I knew I found the right place my son couldn’t stop looking at his cake he was touching it everyone loved the cake it was perfection and it tasted so good I provided a picture of what I wanted and definitely received exactly what I asked for.“

“This place is excellent 👌!!!“

“From one business owner to another, I couldn't be more happy for the lovely treats James and Maria Carozza at Cookie Jar delivered to me as a gift! This speaks to the generosity and thoughtfulness of Cookie Jar as a whole, and I only wish for this business's continued success!“

“Definitely one of the best bakeries!! We went to multiple bakeries for our wedding cake tasting. Nothing compares to the quality and taste at Conca D’Oro. Our wedding guests are still asking where our cake was from. Juan was super helpful and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this bakery!!“

“Excelente servicio y delicioso pan y los postres, recomendado 100 por 100 el mejor pan de beyonne fresco y caliente.“

“Great food. So far the best colombian food I ate in NJ.“

“I initially stopped by to pick up a cupcake for my boyfriend’s birthday, but my first interaction wasn’t the best and I almost left without making a purchase. As I was heading out, Edo overheard what happened and came out to personally make things right.

I’m so glad he did. Edo was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuine, we ended up having a great conversation, and he went above and beyond by gifting my boyfriend four cupcakes for his birthday. It truly made his day special.

His level of care and commitment to his customers really stood out. You can tell he’s community-driven and takes pride in his business. Because of him, I will absolutely be coming back and continuing to support this shop.“

“We ordered a strawberry shortcake for our daughter’s Sweet 16. It was so beautiful!! The cake was baked perfectly. We got a mix of buttercream and fresh whipped cream. Both were the best I’ve ever had! Absolutely delicious! Thank you Cake Chef!“

“5 star for Philly Fluff alone! Aside from that, the staff was so friendly and helped me find just the right dessert for my T1D husband. KETO CHEESECAKE. It too was a big hit and had NO EFFECT on his sugar level. It is good to know that we can keep a fresh baked dessert on hand to keep a T1D satisfied! Thank you Natale's!“

“Super busy on a Tuesday night. It was my first time inside and it was very confusing as to where to go and how to order- no one greeted us or anything which is a little odd. We figured it out and enjoyed our cookies. There was a pretty long wait“

“Honestly one of the only bake shops I truly like here on Staten Island. The items have always been fresh (other bake shops sold me day old items and it shows in the taste), taste amazing, aroma delicious! I also ordered two occasion cakes and both times they were excellent!“

“I recently visited Juleus Bakery in Bayonne, and I was absolutely blown away! The cake I got was incredibly fresh, with a perfect blend of vanilla and chocolate, topped with fresh fruit and chocolate. The variety of cakes they offer is impressive, and everything is made fresh daily. Plus, the staff is friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Highly recommend this bakery for anyone looking for delicious, high-quality treats!“

“Really cute place with plenty of clean tables. Staff is nice and friendly and even brought my bagel over to me. A little expensive, I had an everything cheese egg and chorizo for $9. The chorizo is extra cost but very good, adds a nice zing and crisp to it. The everything bagel is also very flavorful. Best bagel I’ve had in Bayonne.“
