14 Best Bakeries in Hackensack

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

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

“I stopped in to their retail shop. You would have to know it's there. It's an unassuming tiny little place on a dead end road in an industrial complex. I almost wasn't sure if it was even open. But a nice young man came out when I walked in, and I ordered a 1lb of mixed cookies. He asked what flavors I liked to make sure I got some good ones.

The cookies were all fantastic. Very flavorful without anise or fake almond or whatever it is they usually load Italian cookies up with. I think the best one we had was the chocolate macaroons though.

This is definitely a must-stop bakery any time you find yourself around Hackensack.“

“I’ve been to various Paris Baguette locations around Central Jersey, and honestly, I wasn’t a huge fan… until recently. Let me explain.

At one location I frequented, the coffee had really disappointed me. Once upon a time, their coffee was delicious, with rich, chocolatey notes, but the last few visits left me with bitter, almost burnt-tasting drinks, and no amount of milk could fix it. This was surprising, since they supposedly use LavAzza beans. I also never loved their cakes; I often found them too heavy on icing and light on actual cake.

However, on a recent trip while shopping at 99 Ranch Market (which is conveniently right next door), we decided to give Paris Baguette another try and treat ourselves to pastries. I was immediately impressed by their selection and how frequently the display was refilled. Every item was behind a glass case, which felt very clean and hygienic.
The staff at the counter were friendly and helpful. They asked if we had a rewards account, and it turned out none of us had signed up, or our accounts had expired.

The cashiers were great at making the hot beverages, and they asked if we had a rewards program with them. We gave them our phone numbers, and it turned out none of us had signed up or that they expired.

Here's what we purchased:
- Cafe Mocha - 5/5 stars. Perfect balance of espresso and chocolate. The barista even made a heart on top. Although the lid covered it, the gesture was appreciated.
- Cold Brew - 5/5 stars. Smooth and refreshing.
- Chausson aux Pommes - 4/5 stars. A French apple turnover with a perfectly crisp crust and tender, flavorful apples that weren’t mushy.
- Croissant Donut - 5/5 stars. Flaky, buttery croissant-like in shape of a donut, filled with custard that was bright due to the citrus, and well-balanced between sweet and savory.
- Blueberry & Cream Brioche - 5/5 stars. Their crust was crispy and light. It was an indulgent treat that was well balanced as the custard was rich, soft, and just sweet enough without being heavy.

Patrons can help themselves to cream, milk, utensils, and napkins, which is convenient. The seating is roomy and relaxing, perfect for lingering over coffee and pastries.

It’s located in the Home Depot strip mall. Parking is usually easy on weekdays, but weekends can get a little hectic.

Overall, this visit completely changed my opinion of Paris Baguette. The coffee and pastries were impeccable, and the environment made for a pleasant, stress-free experience. Definitely worth a stop if you’re nearby.“

“I am extremely grateful for the team and the person who worked on my son’s cake, everyone was extremely kind and made it fast and efficient, the person who took my custom order was extremely patient and brought my ideas to life, they all went above and beyond, this is my second time ordering custom cakes from this and I will continue ordering my cakes from them!!!!!“
