50 Best Bakeries near East Brunswick

“Best fruit cake I ever had“

“They will make the hot coffee fresh if you ask them to-which of course they should. If you're pre-diabetic maybe cinnamon rolls are not the best food to eat, but delicious. No, I do not indulge often. Not often at all because I'm currently far from wealthy. I'm far from rolling in the dough. No pun intended. The young woman with the glasses is kind, and I do not mean that in a weird way. Actually, one of the employees will not always make it fresh-communicating to me they made it 45 minutes ago & will not make it again. Yes, I contacted the owner about the profoundly rude behavior towards me on more than one occasion without getting into specifics.“

“Very clean restaurant, Food Delicious, Waitress Lee courteous, polite, so nice a pleasure to talk to. Will definetely go back.“

“Great cupcakes there. There’s a reason why they won or Food Network cupcake competition. I always make a stop here whenever I visit Princeton.“

“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.“

“This cake was a true testament to baking done with love and intention, with so much precision and attention to detail. From the first bite, you could taste the difference that real, high-quality ingredients used , and how it literally melts in your mouth, great consistency and just the right amount of sweetness. The texture was soft and moist with smooth frosting, delicate decoration, and a beautiful presentation that arrived exactly on time. Thank you so much 🩵“

“If you’re looking for someone to make your kid’s birthday extra special, look no further than Gimme S’more! 💕 I used them for my son’s 5th birthday and I was blown away. The owner was such a great communicator and seriously went above and beyond. She even ordered the monster trucks herself to make my son's cake vision come to life! and let me tell you, a monster truck crashing into the cake is about as cool as it gets for a 5-year-old boy. 🛞💥🎂 My son was obsessed! And the Funfetti cupcakes? Oh. My. Gosh. SO moist, so yummy, and they disappeared faster than I could grab one for myself 😂. To top it off, she delivered everything right to the party which made life 100x easier. Highly recommend!! Gimme S’more CRUSHED 🏁 it! 🧁✨“

“We love the atmosphere, the delicious homemade soups, main dishes, and desserts at the lovely Friends Friend's Cafe :) the jazz evenings outdoors, the chess-playing and studying students & Mo, Josephine, and Hannah with the heart of gold for all furry friends who are welcome inside the cafe, and, of course, on the patio <3 <3 <3 Below is our Rover enjoying his doggie meal and a comfy bed at the cafe :)“

“Had a last minute order of over 40+ cupcakes and the team did an amazing job making sure I got what I needed. The cake was SO moist. Would recommend. Ty, ladies!!“

“Their conchas are so delicious and beautiful! The workers are very friendly, too ❤️“

“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!“

“I just had the best cake for my son’s 50th. Not only did it look great but it was delicious! I will be back for every event! Their pastries were amazing as well and the girl behind the counter couldn’t have been more helpful. She even brought the cake to my car!!“

“We just had Tuscany Old Bridge BBQ cater our wedding this past weekend. They surpassed every expectation! Anne treated us as if she has known us for years! She took such good care of us. Our griller, Mike and his wife Pat who was our server, were absolutely the best! Our 60 family and friends are still raving about the food! It made our wedding such a memorable occasion! I highly, highly recommend them. We will be repeat customers!“

“The bagels were just as they are supposed to be - crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We got a dozen to bring back to NH with us because they were that good. Service was friendly and fast. I'd go again if I'm ever in the area.“

“Paris Baguette, the Edison location is my ultimate favorite place for taking time for a break, to relax, chat with friends. Welcoming and helpful staff. So many delicious pastries, and lunch items, but always get the lemon creme pastry, the chocolate stick pastry. Fav sandwich is the egg salad.
The creme cake slices are delicious and decorated so prettily. I don't drink coffee, but many hot beverages to choose from including tea. Come on in.“

“Love them. Close to work I love ❤️ perusing shops and decompressing during lunch. Restaurants are amazing“

“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!!“

“I've tried a couple of mochi donuts here and they are all amazing! Not too sweet and the flavors all hit the mark. I've recently stopped by and noticed they had Christmas themed donuts, which is think is so cute, they would be great to bring to a party or to gift to someone.“

“Love the organic ingredients being used and the comment card suggesting freezing if you can’t finish is much appreciated. I can only eat 1/4- 1/2 so the balance is going in the freezer!“

“Best cafe in the area! Delicious baked good and the breakfast board is excellent! I want to eat everything when I go! Only open on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) so plan your visit!“

“greate food , good place and people“

“We ordered a cake for a Gender Reveal Party and from the design from the picture they provided, to the final product, it was perfect! I would def recommend La Bon Bakery to anyone. They were also nice enough to let us pick up the cake so close to their closing time. Their customer service is appreciated and exceptional. We will def be going back!“

“These cakes are AMAZING! My daughter’s school had a fundraiser and our order just came it tonight, first time trying Nothing Bundt Cakes and I wish I would of tried them a long time ago. Cake was so moist and just delicious! No sweet, just perfect. The cream cheese frosting is to die for! Can’t wait to order for my daughter’s birthday next month!“

“LaBon made my granddaughters first birthday cake that needed to be eggless due to allergies. What a beautiful cake and she loved it! Thank you so much for making her day special!“

“I ordered a custom cake and I received the best service. The person suggested different options to make sure I chose the best design. The cake was made exactly how I pictured it! The cake tasted amazing, everyone loved it! Forever thankful!“

“I ordered a Baked Bouquet for my grandma’s 99th birthday and it was a huge hit! When we brought it out, everyone genuinely thought it was a real flower arrangement — the detail was unbelievable. People were actually hesitant to eat it because it looked so pretty!

But once we did, wow — the cupcakes were fresh, soft, and delicious. Not overly sweet, just really good. My grandma loved it and so did the rest of the family. It added such a special touch to the celebration. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something unique and beautiful and tasty!“

“I usually never leave a review, but I have to leave a review for Paris Baguette at this location. The service is stellar, and the employees there are so knowledgeable so quick and so eager to help.

“(Aug 31, 2025)
A friend of ours took us to this place as it was a completely lacto-vegetarian restaurant/bakery.

We had the following:
1. A pizza: No crest (sauce covers the entire surface) with a nice thick bready base, with Indian sauce on top, creamy and tangy. I wish they had some vegetables also on it, in addition to just a few stray pieces of paneer.
2. A cake slice: A mild Indian-ish flavour.“

“Delicious Mexican pastries! Everything was freshly made. I enjoyed a breakfast taco (egg, ham & quesillo) on a homemade corn tortilla.. OMG.. it doesn't get any better. There's very little space to dine in so best bet is take out.“

“I had an amazing experience @The Market On Main .Now, under new ownership by a dear friend! The updated menu is a real treat, blending classic Greek flavors with exciting new twists. I tried the platter / Pita chips & Dips, plump chef and the veggie Reggie it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The new desserts are a must-try. The vibe is warm and welcoming, perfect for a casual dinner . Service was friendly and attentive, and you can feel the love in everything they do. So proud of what they've built!

The interior is beautiful with lots of photo opporunities inside.

Their cappuccino is just right. Guava pastry is good. They have empanadas and other patry items like cupcakes, brownies, macarons, etc.

Worth a stop if you have time and are in the area.

They make cakes for special occasions as well.“
