A clean and airy environment. The food was average. The vegetables were close to wilting, and their taste had started to change. Overall, the staff working there seemed unhappy and were not very friendly. Parking is street parking and paid. Still, thank you.

Thank you for the amazing engagement cake! The vanilla was light and soft, not heavy at all, and the fruit added just the right freshness without being too sweet. The frosting was smooth and creamy, and everything tasted really well balanced. Every bite felt fresh and comforting at the same time. Everyone was impressed with the details and the taste of the cake. Definitely coming back to do the wedding cake!

This place is such a find! I'm so glad that we went!

Was craving dessert and coffee and at 11PM, nothing is really open. This place will now be my go to spot!

Turkish coffee was excellent, not bitter, thick and strong. The latte was made perfectly, not scalding hot, just the right milk consistency.

The baked goods were great, a little too sweet but the coffee definitely help cut through that sweetness to make it just right!

We’ve been there several times and every visit has been great. Their breakfast is delicious and the prices are reasonable. Our favorite items are their desserts, especially the pistachio chocolate cake and the dubai pudding. The staff are also very helpful and friendly.

They have very good dessert and selection of cakes as it's not too sweet but still rich in flavor. My entire family from children to elderly are able to enjoy the cake each time because it's not drenched in sugar. They seem to use quality ingredients and have some amazing Pistachio chocolate desserts. The bakery section (breads/bagel) can be very steep in price though.

I ordered my daughter’s first birthday cake from Vanilla Bakery, and I am beyond impressed! The cake was absolutely beautiful and incredibly delicious—every single guest loved it and couldn’t stop complimenting it. Vanilla Bakery made her special day even more memorable with their amazing work. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a perfect cake!

We visited this cafe on a late-night jaunt to Cliffside Park. The ambiance was modern and chic, yet relaxed like Starbucks. We tried the Dubai pudding and White Hot Chocolate, both of which were incredible. To top it off, the cashier/waiter patiently explained every bakery item we had questions about, even at midnight.

We also ordered the Tahini for takeaway, but I personally didn’t enjoy it. The product was good, but I think I wasn’t properly informed about it. I expected it to be a bread with the tahini dipping in the middle, but it turned out to be a bread with a lot of stuffing inside, making it an incredibly heavy breakfast.

Another issue I had was that the cafe seemed small based on the number of patrons. It definitely needs an expansion.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this cafe, especially for their bakery items.
