50 Best Bakeries near Chatham

“Freud de Sel is an amazingly dangerous bakery to my waistline and wallet. When I go in, I can’t resist the call of those tantalizing pastries and desserts. Everything that I’ve tried has been wonderful. Their baguette is perfection. All the desserts are works of art. Love that we have such an authentic French bakery in Chatham. Glad it is a bit of a drive from my house to keep me out of trouble. lol.“

“Just recently raised my review from 3 to 4 stars. The cookies and mini pastries are spectacular. Will have to work my way through the cakes next. Might up it to five stars. The macarons were a bit less crisp than my wife would have liked, but I blame that on the humidity and transport (I took too long enjoying the sunshine, nothing against the bakery), otherwise they were wonderful.“

“Went here for lunch today. It’s colorful, friendly, and the food is delicious. I ordered the filled tostones appetizer and fish filet in garlic sauce. Juan was the perfect host. Will go back on a Saturday night for live music! BYOB. Check it out!!“

“Everything here is delicious! I’ve been craving some fresh fruit juices and their maracuya (passion fruit) and mango were both so yummy. We enjoyed the dish, 3 Parceros, and it was a good balance of different meats. The service is also great - the waitress was very attentive. Carlos, the owner, checked in on all us diners and was very friendly. It was a great lunch for 2 of us. We will be coming back again!“

“This place is amazing - not only did they go above and beyond to help me support a dear friend in her time of need and without hesitation, and were so kind and professional, but my friend told me that the food was so delicious, it was presented so beautifully, and everyone ate and enjoyed all of it. A truly incredible place, with incredible food, and a heart/soul to match. Thank you! And a special THANK YOU to Dee for all of the above! (And, if you couldn't tell, I cannot recommend it enough.)“

“So happy we reached out to Ridhima for our daughter’s hunger games -Mocking Jay theme birthday party. The cake was delicious to eat and gorgeous. Pictures don’t do it justice. Ridhima is very easy to work with and v patient. Highly recommend Sweet Kneads!“

“The perfect chocolate cake. It was moist, decadent chocolate cake perfectly layered with like a thicker chocolate pudding, and then it was topped off with chocolate crumbles .... giving it an extra oomph/ perfect textureAlso got the ginger snap - has a nice ginger taste, which is what one would look for.I'm definitely going back.“

“Everything is delicious and the owners and people working there are so nice. We frequently go and sit there as it has a great atmosphere. We also placed a large order for a party and the owner himself delivered an item we forgot at pick up. Amazing food and coffee and even more amazing service!“

“Amazing little gem! Exquisite attention to detail in their delicious desserts. Texture, flavor, presentation and quality of ingredients are 5 star. Super helpful and friendly staff and lovely decor. Coffee and tea were great too. Highly recommend!!!“

“Staff was very friendly, chill atmosphere. Everything we had was delicious; chopped salad w/chick pea tuna salad, turkey sandwich, potato salad, cookie dough bite. Definitely get the iced mint lime ginger tea or the hibiscus tea.Be sure to scan the QR code for the full menu with expanded descriptions and additional items.Vegetarian options: All vegan“

“A quick in and out spot. I can see why it’s called crumbl. Lol the cookie crumbles and melts away. It tastes really good. A huge cookie. $5… average price for this day and age (but it’s also a decent size cookie).A secret tip: towards the end of the night, they’ll obviously start running low on stock. So either try going earlier, or order ahead. I say a secret tip because my husband and I ordered ahead. (The first time we went, they did not have any fancier flavors left; so we just ended up leaving.) This time, we were smarter and ordered ahead and also were able to get to the location around 9:30 pm. (Compared to the 10:30 first time).“

“Victoria’s presentation was very informative. Her cake was very tasty. I love the frosting and the different flavors that she incorporated into it. I love the way she prepared it. I learned a lot of new tips and tricks about piping and the correct way and how to do it. It was overall a great experience.10/10 would recommend.“

“I would definitely consider myself a regular. Love their sandwiches and bakery items. The best part about this restaurant is their amazing and friendly staff. Everyone is just so nice and willing to help/answer any questions you have. The bakery is very relaxing so you could definitely get some work done if that's your cup of tea. The only negative I must comment on is that their sandwiches sit under a heated lamp so their bagels can get a bit soggy. P.S. order online as soon as the bakery opens because they do sell out very quickly. Especially on the weekends!“

“I discovered Love JoJo’s cookies at 90s con in CT last weekend. I bought a half dozen. French toast, caramel kiss, peanut butter cup, chocolate chip, m&m, brookie. They were ALL amazing and my fiancé is a fan of them too. They have that homemade taste which I love! Definitely recommend!“

“I try to visit this place anytime I am in New Jersey. NYC quality bakery in NJ. That’s pretty hard to find in my experience. The price is right for how high quality everything is. Staff is always friendly, the place is always clean, and in the new location at Artie’s it was fun to see the place go from breakfast to lunch service and not feel rushed out. I’ll be back, I always am.“

“After being here a number of times, it is safe to say you can blindly order something random on the menu and it will be fantastic. Great for a weekly date night, business lunch/dinner, it is for sure a place to impress your guests! As a restauranteur myself, Il Capriccio is the Gold standard in everything they do from their fresh food, professional service, and even a warm and genuine greeting. Really, nothing comes close.“

“My new favorite place! I got their berries and cream cake a few weeks ago and was so impressed. It’s perfectly balanced - not too sweet which is perfect for my palate. I stopped in again today and all the items I got were amazing!!Everyone should definitely try out this place. Excellent customer service! Great experience all around. I highly recommend!“

“Thank you to the man at this location who helped my husband make my birthday extra special! His enthusiasm and care putting together a box of cinnamon rolls for us to enjoy was the first thing my husband mentioned when we opened up this birthday treat to enjoy. Great customer service and experience at this location - definitely come here if you're in the mood for Cinnabon!“

“Ordered a gluten free, sugar free cake for my friends birthday. We were blown away by how good it was! Everyone loved it and would have never known there was no sugar!! Everyone who works there is super friendly also when we had questions about what was in the cake! 10 out of 10!!“

“Unique and delish. My amazing title person stopped by my office and brought there Homemade Potato Donuts called Spudnuts. The dulce de leche with sea salt was my favorite, but it’s super rich. The cinnamon sugar was a close second. You definitely can’t eat the whole donut since they are so large. They were warm and fresh when she brought them in. I have never been here but it’s definitely a fan favorite to most in Morristown. They also have breakfast sandwiches, pizza, burgers, gyro platter and a ton of other comfort foods. I haven’t stopped in, but based on the spundnuts I definitely will stop in soon!“

“I needed a birthday cake or a kosher cake and they accommodate me the same day with a delicious round chocolate babka,and they deliver it to me all the way to roselle excellent service I highly recommend ?Dietary restrictions: My friend does not eat pork of any kind we need kosher for him. He's from Ghana“

“This is one of my mom's favorite places for coffee. Everything I've tried at Liv Breads is delicious. All the croissants are amazing, but the nutella croissant is ridiculously good. The sandwiches are all fresh, healthy, and satisfying. The coffee is excellent. I love the samples you can try as you wait in line. Had to purchase the cardamon bun after tasting the sample. It is a unique pastry I haven't seen elsewhere, and it is the perfect blend of sweet, spicy, and crunchy. Going back soon to try the baguette which looks delicious.“

“We had a private dinner experience for my husband’s birthday. The food was delicious and it felt like we were having a big dinner party at home - the atmosphere was perfect and our guests loved it. Laura and her staff were amazing. I cannot recommend Farinolio enough!“

“I went last Saturday with my sister, who lives right down the road. We each purchased 6 cookies , alittle expensive at 3.00 each, but they were delicious. I had the chocolate chip, biscoff, and M&M. My sister got chocolate chip, rocky road and biscoff. watch out Dee's Cookies we'll be back !! Hopefully next time you have peanut butter cookies.“

“Definitely an experience everyone should take part in !!!Especially if you have Italian in your blood.. ? I have purchased numerous items, from the counter/deli section to the hot bar,/ to the ready made dinners, / also the bakery items...also there fresh meat counter...... Everything I've had was 10 out of 10... The homemade sauces are Awesome.. the meatballs, also the chicken franchise meatballs are amazing !!! There breads ??? I can't keep going on..on.. on.. Can I ???? ??My only downfall is how much I spend, when I walk into this establishment.. lol ??Highly recommend !!!“

“This is such a cute bakery! They have a perfect array of cookies, cupcakes, scones, and other goodies! I've tried the scones, royal frosted cookies, and now the lemon loaf (GF) and have loved them all. It does tend to be busy but the staff is friendly and moves you on through. There is limited outdoor seating nearby so plan to bring your goodies outside or to the car. Prices are not listed for pastries and it isn't cheap - but I say worth it!“

“The hot food bar was great! But the reason I went there was for the empanadas. They weren't hot and one of them was so hard I almost broke a tooth. The filling was seasoned very well, but they weren't filled greatly. Maybe 70/100 filled. The service was great, kind staff and all that. I just was expecting a WOW from how this place was recommended and all I had was MEHParking: Just a few spots in a parking lotWheelchair accessibility: There's a ramp for wheelchairs“

“My 1st time here as I heard about it from my sister in North Carolina so when I drive by I had to stop in. I was greeted by a very friendly young lady who was so knowledgeable in all the different flavors and as a novice myself she helped me to decide on the pumpkin spice ( limited edition) and the strawberry bundle cake! They were very good ,and just enough for one person. I don't like very sweet icing so I didn't eat much of the icing but the cakes were delicious ? will definitely go back again“

“This spot is definitely a hidden gem.The location is conveniently located but the parking may be a bit difficult depending on what time you go.The service is wonderful! The young lady who served us was truly attentive & listened to all of our vegan needs. The food was amazing!! Fresh & super tasty!!We had the vegan sliders, waffle fries, vegan lo-mein, & the burrito grande. This location has portions down packed!! You get a great amount of food for what you pay for & quality taste. Our drinks were made to perfection!! Passion mint lemonade left me speechless!! Getting that every single time now.If you have any dog allergies be mindful of the fact that there is a business dog on premise. She did not bother anyone nor was she a nuisance. Something to be mindful of if you have allergies to dogs.We will definitely be returning.Thank you guys!!!Dietary restrictions: Vegan friendly!!“

“Fantastic Italian sandwiches. Fresh ingredients, pleasant staff, and big portions. Can't ask for too much more from a deli. I haven't tried any of their bakery items and have always gotten my food to-go but they do have a wide selection of foods from every category, and have ample seating available for those wishing to dine in. Parking is a little weird as the shop is at the top of a hill, and the area tends to be swarmed with police cars. But the lot is big enough you won't have any trouble getting a spot. If you're looking for a sandwich recommendation, listen to what all the reviews are saying and try to the eggplant - you won't be disappointed. It isn't even just the eggplant, all the ingredients come together well. The mozzarella is extremely fresh too. They also have several other spreads and toppings you can substitute or add on if you wish if you prefer to customize your sandwich. Price might seem a little high for a sandwich, but the portion size makes up for it, and to be honest it's pretty in line with competitors.“

“What a great cookie!!We went around 8:45 pm on a Friday night and they were out of some of the more popular cookies, but the 2 that we got were amazing!!They also sell milk, which is such a great thing when you're eating cookies!!Can't wait to go back and to try some of the other cookies!!“

“Their Gluten Free Chocolate chip cake is so good. The frosting is just the most delicious thing. They recently had a pop up Gluten Free Lemon Raspberry flavor that was maybe the best gluten free cake I've ever had. I really hope they bring it back!“

“This was my first time trying this bakery after reading both the positive and negative reviews about it. It seems that they worked hard to improve the customer service yet i encountered one female employee at the bakery section that had an attitude, for absolutely no reasons, during one of my two visits . Other employees were neutral, they are just here to take your order and give you the box and that's it. No welcoming atmosphere, no good morning, no smiles, just the "Hi, how can i help you" or "next".Maybe because the bakery is always super busy employees are a little stressed, but even if this is the case, with little training they can be more professional and show some warm hospitality. Customers usually perceive a bakery as their own kitchen area, they step in anticipating the warmth of own place, especially early in the morning when they need good vibes at the start of a new fresh day. And this is mutual by the way, like if employees share a smile or a warm greeting they will also be rewarded a warm smile back and this will automatically boost their moods and take away all the workload stress. Overall, i liked the quality customer service at the deli section more than the bakery section. At the deli counter, employees were keen on answering my questions patiently as it was my first visit. While at the bakery section, they are acting like robots with a pokerface, they hurry you up and as i mentioned above, get an attitude that instantly makes you feel uncomfortable and sorry about coming here at 6 a.m. in the morning. So, this is my sincere advice in this department. As for the food quality, they need to improve their sandwiches as they lack this one magic touch that makes all the difference. Their sandwiches are typically made based on the classic catalog instructions; very straight forward process that you personally can prepare, even better, at your own kitchen. As for the bakery pastry, it was fresh and come in many varities. Some items were good like the Crème brûlée, but it had a strong egg taste! The cannoli was really good, so was the old fashion no sugar roll and the cinnamon roll. I tried the pastéis de nadas but i personally found it below average. I also tried the almonds orange cup but it tasted like cherry medicine instead, with zero almonds orange flavor! The pecan roll was good. The curved crescent roll was way better in taste than the straight croissant, no clue why! I might try the white napoleon next time. Overall, the best of the bakery section is by all means the melhada bread; no fat, no sugar, no dairy and no yeast. THIS, i will stay loyal to, period. Other than that, i would go grab one or two pastry items from time to time and until they improve the quality of sandwiches, i don't think i would try them again. Yet, i must say "Thanks" to the smiley friendly welcoming ladies at the deli section.“

“Wow. Also wow. Then some more wow. I bought a platter of chocolate pretzels, graham crackers, Oreos and biens for Valentine's Day. My wife is leaving me for this deliciousness :) My biggest issue is that I'm now required to buy an ongoing, steady lifetime supply to keep my better half happy. Wow!“

“I had the pleasure of ordering my daughter's 6th birthday cake from Edos bakery, and I couldn't be happier with the experience.In short, this bakery is a gem, and I highly recommend them for any special occasion. They made my daughter's 6th birthday memorable with a cake that not only looked amazing but also tasted divine. Thank you for your outstanding service!“

“Natale’s is our go to for birthday cakes. It’s usually pretty reliable in terms of taste and prices. They make a delicious pineapple and black forest cake.However, I’m slightly disappointed by the in person customer experience. The whole process feels a bit rushed. They have a pretty nice collection of baked items, but no names/ingredients or prices. Am I expected to know what each of them is called, when ordering with the person behind the counter? It also feels like on busy days, I don’t want to spend time asking a bunch of questions and have the people behind me wait.Letting people browse and having names and prices would improve the in person experience considerably in my opinion.But definitely recommend for delicious reasonably priced baked goods and cakes.“

“Excellent allergy friendly bakery! It is awesome to know that a bakery with such an amazing selection is safe to eat for my kids while everyone else is enjoying the same desserts. Their breads are amazing by the way!! Great job two fields!!“

“I have been coming to Papa Ganache for years. First in Matawan and now Cranford location because it is closer to me. The treats are always delicious but I want to shout out the customer service and staff. I have noticed in this day and age customer service is few and far between.But not here at PG! Specifically Carter!!! Carter is always so pleasant and kind no matter how many questions I may have about a product. I appreciate your kindness Carter!!! Thank you for showing me there are still kind people in this world.“

“I ordered 2 dozen cupcakes from Three Daughters Baking Company for our daughter’s Baby Shower on Feb. 25, 2024. They did a wonderful job accommodating my request. The cupcakes were delicious and not too sweet. I had sent them a Pinterest photo of how I wanted them to “swirl” the icing so it would look like a flower on top and use several colors of icing because I was going to arrange them in a “cupcake bouquet.” I was very pleased with how the cupcakes tasted and also how they looked.Photos attached show the cupcakes by Three Daughters Baking. (The flower stems and ribbon were provided by the customer. )Their service, their food and everything was excellent! I highly recommend Three Daughters Baking Company!“

“Had a wonderful experience today to celebrate a birthday! The staff is lovely, informative and attentive. The venue is clean and bright and the table setting was so pretty. There were plenty of selections on the three tiered tray stand and we thoroughly enjoyed the tea! Give it a try!“

“I truly beautiful, and amazing Cafe, with beautiful decor on the inside and out!The owner takes pride and absolutely everything that comes out of the kitchen, which is handcrafted and made with love! Some of the best chocolate chip cookies, flourless, brownies, cakes, macaroons, and croissants, as big as your head!“

“Great polish food. I live 45min away and stop here for pierogis whenever in the area. From potato and cheese, to mushroom and even blueberry these are all best around. Also tried bean stew which is amazing. Bigos or hunter stew I guess is great ! Traditional dishes are also phenomenal around holidays. The bread is always fresh and probably best in the whole region. This is the place to shop if you're into this type of food.“

“Ring in the yum! Of all the mochi donut places I've tried, these stay the softest even when they're a couple days old. The day my family and I visited, they had 10 flavors available and we enjoyed all, especially the Nutella, Strawberry, and Brown Sugar Milk Tea. We love it a hole bunch! ;)NOTES/TIPS:**No restroom, more of a take out spot.**Between Bonchon and Barangay.**Street parking.**They offer several great deals of 1 free donut for buying 6 or 2 for buying a dozen, and 1 free taiyaki ice cream for buying 2.“

“Food is amazing, everything is delicious. Service is okay. Layout of the store makes it tough to go in and out or pay without the door almost opening against your back. Parking is terrible but that is not their fault. The food is magical and I have tried pastries all over the world!“

“I love using this Company make the best Cupcakes. I use them every year for different occasions. It was my first time picking up order from Baked Bouquet in Edison, New Jersey. The service was good In the employees were very helpful. Wife said that the Cupcakes were very delicious and she loved them For her valentine gift.“

“We Love our local kosher bakery,Our family has been frequenting this bakery for 20+ years, their outstanding service and kindness is always in the forefront, and the Baked Goods are delicious!!May G-D send them many more successful years to service our Community!,“

“Service was fantastic. I placed my order for an assortment of cupcakes the morning of the event. Then called a few hours later to see if I could come earlier to pick them up. Great service. Pick up Window was organized and no wait really. Cupcakes were packed so cute and boy were they delicious. Will order again thank you“

“Very good bagel sandwiches in the Caldwell area. This wasn't a shock. I always do a sausage bagel with cheese, no egg. This was another place that gave two sausages on the bagel which is outstanding!! That must be how thwy make them in NJ. I'm looking forward to visiting again!“

“If you have a sweet tooth, Breakin' Bread's cakes will not disappoint. Each cake is a masterpiece, both in taste and presentation. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just treating yourself, their cakes are a perfect choice. The coffee shop vibe adds to the overall enjoyment.“

“Got the UBE PANNA COTTA. Was surprised that it was so good. A lot of Ube flavor. So sweet and tasty. Wife says, “Very good!” Also my son had the CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE, son gave it 10⭐️s! “That was SO good!” Wife says it was the best as well. Daughter had the CHOCOLATE MOUSSE and she loved it. The CHICKEN SPINACH HAND PIE was excellent, as per my wife. “Can we go back for more?”, says my daughter.“
