50 Best Bakeries near Fair Lawn

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Restaurant Experience! ❤️ I came across this unique and beautiful restaurant while searching online. I was looking for a special place to take my family out for dinner because it was my oldest son's birthday. I also read the history of this beautiful place, Father a Son team and it sounded like something down our alley and my son would really love to experience. Oh my goodness! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with such a warm and welcoming attitude. We were seated in the best spot, and they even brought out a high chair for my grandson. We try to put him in high chairs but he just doesn't like them. This little guy wants to be a big boy already😂❤️ Our waiter, Ali I believe that was his name, was absolutely the best! He was so approachable, funny, and well mannered with all of us. He even joked around with my grandson, which made the experience even more special. Thank u! Everything we had was delicious! From the warm bread with olives and olive oil to the appetizers, to our main dishes and oh my goodness, those drinks🍹 They were to die for! Now that's what I call, “Call me an Uber!” 😂 They definitely were not stingy with the alcohol, and those drinks were so good! 😉 They even brought out a little dessert for my son to celebrate his birthday, and it was so, so good and absolutely delicious! 🎂❤️ I rate this restaurant 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Honestly, if I could give them double the stars, I gladly would! Thank you for treating my family as if we were right at home and we did feel as were home❤️ Your hospitality, food, drinks, and wonderful service made my son's birthday dinner truly memorable and ours too! We will definitely be back! ❤️ and this time we would love to seat in that beautiful garden outside❣️“

“Just a taste of New Jersey is a warm, welcoming spot where every cookie is baked with care and purpose. The staff’s kindness and pride in their work shine through in both the service and the exceptional quality of the treats. It’s more than just a cookie shop—it’s a place that celebrates community while empowering those with different abilities.“

“I am very shocked to read this review. I have been doing business with this company for over 25 years. I can say I have never had a problem. We have bought 5 ovens, mixer, former, display cases and refrigeration and never had a problem.They do all our service. I am sure you can work something out. These are very nice people to do business with. Jessie's Bagels.“

“I have developed a love for Georgian food. What is not to like? Bread and cheese in many variations. That is why I was delighted to learn that Shoti serves fabulous food in Fairlawn. The staff is very helpful to the uninitiated customer. We did take out. Try it for something different for your friends. You will not be disappointed!“

“They have the best chocolate chip cookie and the red velvet cake was very delicious I highly recommend this place its all organic to and freshly made 😋 I like how she donate to churches and to the police station every night 🌙“

“The best macaroons. The crème brûlée and Ferrero rocher were my favs!“

“We absolutely love the Kurly Kurdish shop. I had a Kurly kone with cherry vanilla ice cream. This is the best sweet treat. I recommend everyone stop in and try one!“

“The new owners have brought a completely different level of energy and hospitality to the place. The service is warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, and you can tell they are personally invested in making sure customers have a great experience. Me and my son had a breakfast and it was truly amazing.

Most importantly, the quality of the food and desserts has improved tremendously. Everything we tried was fresh and delicious, especially the baklava and Turkish pastries. Definitely worth trying.“

“Delicious empanadas, and desserts! More than just cakes, stop in for a delicious treat like I did!!“

“I don't usually write long Google reviews, but after attending a buddy’s wedding in North Jersey recently, I had to drop one for this place.
Honestly, I’m not even a big cake guy, but the dessert setup at the reception caught my attention right away. They had this huge, multi-tiered custom wedding cake that looked awesome really clean work, not over the top, just super high quality. My wife and I were actually talking about how great it looked before they even cut into it.
When we finally got our slices, I expected the usual wedding cake thing: looks great, tastes like dry cardboard or straight sugar. But man, this thing was actually insane. Super moist, fresh, and tasted legit. I finished mine in about two minutes and ended up grabbing half of my wife’s slice too. It was so good I walked over to the groom during the party just to ask where they got it. He told me they had it custom designed at D’era House.
Finding a cake designer around North Jersey that makes something that actually tastes as good as it looks is pretty rare. I saved their info on my phone right then and there for our next family event.
If you’re looking for a solid wedding cake designer, custom made tiered cakes, or custom event cakes in Clifton or anywhere in the area, D’era House is 100% the real deal. Props to the baker! 💍🍰💪“

“I got a dairy free cake for my future daughter-in-law's shower because she has a severe dairy allergy. Delicious! Everyone was amazed that it was dairy fre..“

“The kunafe is so good with the ice cream on top of the kunafe you should try it especially with Zubeyir 5 star service“

“I was going to a nearby business when I saw this bakery.
The iced coffee was delicious, nice & strong!
They happened to have a gluten free pizza, wish I learned you can order a pie of.
HOLY MOLY, it was DELISH!
Everyone was so nice there, I will be returning & letting people know of this gem!“

“Wonderful cream puffs filled with custard. The owners are just great. I would highly recommend them Peggy Giordano“

“I visited the bakery today, the place is very beautifully decorated and the service was excellent, the owner offered me to sample some cookies, which were delicious. I ordered Rolette and it was nothing short of perfection. Creamy, fresh with the right amount of sweetness. I will definitely return.“

“This place is absolutely amazing . I drive almost an hour away to get cookies from them . If your in the area or want to take a ride you should stop by and give them a try...“

“Erie is amazing. Highly recommend - coffee is absolutely the best - lattes and all different flavors - hot and cold! The banana bread is my favorite but All of the different baked goods are to die for! Never had anything but excellent here. The owners and the baristas and ALL of the staff are friendly and truly provide the BEST service! If I lived in Rutherford I’d be here every day!“

“I’ve been living in the U.S. for 15 years and I still can’t believe I never heard about this place before. The baklava was incredible, and the syrupy dessert with clotted cream inside (I forgot the name) was absolutely amazing. Definitely one of the best dessert spots I’ve tried.“

““Life is tough sometimes. This experience always gives me JOY. The people are amazing and the treats are the best I have ever had.”“

“Everything in Rispoli is delicious! Can't beat their lobster tails! We drive 90min each way every time we have a Rispoli craving and bring their cookies and pastries to our friends in central jersey. Next week we're shipping cookies to Oregon! I have a feeling it will become a regular occurrence. Thanks for never disappointing us!“

“They are a cozy place (not huge) and the vibes were perfect for a cold Sunday. Food is ABSOLUTELY amazing and worth a drive (and wait if needed). Everyone was extremely courteous and accommodating, will absolutely travel the 2hrs to visit them again!“

“Best Gluten Free pizza you will find. Reminds Me of the days before I was diagnosed with Celiac, I will be back for more“

“I had a fantastic bagel with lox at this cafe. The lady at the counter was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the cafe itself was spotless, cozy, and inviting. If I ever come back to New Jersey, I’ll definitely stop by for breakfast again!“

“My son was recently diagnosed with EOE and is dairy, nut and egg free. Someone recommended AltEats so I contacted Laurie and she worked her magic! My son was able to enjoy an amazingly delicious birthday cake for the first time! She also created the most delicious cannoli filled cake for my guests! I can’t say enough about how easy Laurie was to work with and how lucky I feel blessed I feel to have found this establishment!“

“The best cookie I have ever eaten in my life minus my grandmothers! Huge cookies that are organic and gourmet!“

“Everything is delicious and the place is so welcoming.“

“Beautiful pastry and coffees!! Just remarkable and the friendliest and polite staff!! Always my pit stop on my bike rides 🚴up to Ramsey!!“

“Literally the best Knafe in all of Paterson. Better than any other spot. Most authentic Knafe I've tasted in America. The most similar I've seen to this one was in Chicago. And I've tried plenty of Knafe in America.

Also their Znud Al Sit are amazing. I usually call in the morning to make an order by noon time for best results.“

“Seems to be a newer business in downtown Ridgewood right on the corner across from the post office. Probably the best orange scone and oatmeal raisin cookie I have ever had. Everything is fresh and homemade. Nothing imported or stale. The setup is a little weird with how they have some of the baked goods because it's hard to see them all. I wish it was a little easier to see the selection. Maybe it's a good thing you can't really see everything because I would buy it all and be 900 pounds. Great addition to the area!“

“This cute bake shop is small, but dense, providing various flavors and products that are hard to find vegan. The cake truffles (Red Velvet and Fudge Brownie) were amazing—fudgy and flavorful on the inside with just enough icing. The cupcakes (tiramisu and Old Skool) were moist with rich filling at the center and a sufficient amount of frosting. Sweet Avenue deserves their due. I hope I can return one day to try more!

“Everything delicious: Best Italian sub sandwich; eggplant parmigiana. Going years. No exaggeration“

“Received the most amazing surprise birthday cake from SJ! It was as delicious as it was beautiful! This is our third time ordering from SJ, and each time it has been better than the last! I cannot recommend using them for any baked needs you have! We have gotten the chocolate cake with Oreo filling twice and there’s never any cake left! Everyone loves it! Thank you so so much SJ for helping make my birthday magical! See comments for pic of the cake ☺️“

“Delicious and fresh food- full of flavor, lots of veggie options, great baked goods.“

“Thank you Veriella’s Bakery and Cafe for this awesome cake for my son’s 10th birthday. He was so happy! Can’t thank you enough!“

“Was in the neighborhood and decided to buy some treats and empanadas. Everything was delicious. We were greeted by a sweet, hardworking and dedicated owner who truly caters to and cares for her customers. Unfortunately profits aren’t enough to keep the store up and running and must close August 20th, however, she said she is opening an online store! Please support her as I believe in what she has here. I know I will be a continued customer! To the owner: I didn’t get your name, but I wish you so much future success always. Thank you for the lovely chat and for the scrumptious treats.“

“Absolutely the best bagel there is. Each one no matter the flavor is a delight. And their food that they put on the bagel is delicious. Get there before 3;30 PM if you want sliced cheese because they close the slicer at 3;30. I know if I get there at 3;32 PM the slicer is off. So I get tuna fish instead and it’s about as good as it gets. The staff is friendly and do a good job. What a place!“

“My son’s Lego Birthday Cake was a home run. The cake was delicious and definitely fresh. The cake was moist and the filling was smooth. All of the guests commented how great the cake tasted. The design of the cake exceeded our expectations. Thank You, We Bake Fresh for making my son’s birthday extra special. We will be recommending you to our friends and family.“

“Stew Leonard’s, I still love you… but last weekend was a little rough 😂 A few of the animatronics weren’t working, and they were out of strawberry shortcake topping—which was honestly the main reason I went. My inner child and sweet tooth both left disappointed.“

“Excellent quiche and delicious cappuccino“

“Sweet spot in Ridgewood with great pastries, treats and coffees. They have a ton of homemade coffee syrups and fun drinks. I got an iced mocha and it was very good. The decor inside is very fun, I especially dig the parrot chandelier. Definitely worth stopping in while you're in Ridgewood.“

“These were hands down the best fatayer I ever had, especially the ones with the meat. I dont know how they made it so soft like that, but I highly recommend everyone to try this place. Thank you to the lady who spoke up for us, when we were ordering boxes to go. Definitely coming back here again !“

“I highly recommend people try out their cupcakes, shortbread cookies, strawberry shortcake, and their cakes. Delicious and Satisfying💯😋😋You will get you moneys worth.“

“My kiddos love all the dessert options here but the mochi donuts are their favorite while us adults are convinced they make the best almond croissants and stuffed croissants ever! The Nutella offerings have been delicious too! The king donuts are superior to any Boston crepe I’ve ever tried! So many options. We only go for desserts but I know they offer sandwiches too! Just a place worth walking to especially if you’re already in town and paid for parking in the vicinity. Enjoy the options cuz there’s just so many to choose from! We go back often, it never ever disappoints! We even bought the cappuccino cake for a special birthday because we loved how it looked and it tasted just as great!!!“

“This space is beautiful! The food is delightful. The best part of the whole experience, however, was the very sweet manager. I was the first customer of the day and she treated me with so much warmth and kindness. She made my drink with so much love. Can’t wait to return.“

“I need to say that Renee and Carrie are amazing! Very amazing service, being able to be answered in French at the boutique was amazing! I drove twice in 2 days to grab cupcakes and cookies… I cannot say what’s my favourite out of the cupcake, the brownies, the cookies etc because everything was decadent and not too sweet. You taste the quality of the ingredients and the love they put while cooking them. The fact that Carrie was answering me while the business is close is a sign that she’s passionate and that she care about her client. They’re on the expensive side compared to other bakery, but once you compare you understand why… You taste the butter in everything! If you like some fluffy, moist, creamy cupcake this is your place… While planning my wedding, I’ve compared a few bakery and non are as good as this one… Thank you for the amazing experience and taste!“

“This is hands down the ABSOLUTE BEST BAKERY in the TRi-STATE AREA!!! Everything is always super fresh and delicious. Their variety of Cheescakes, Carrot cake, Fruit tarts, Cookies, Biscotti, Lobster tail pastries, and birthday cakes are to die for! I travel from anywhere to bring these along for any occasion and they never disappoint. It has become my family and friend's favorite as well. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!“
