Patisserie/Cake Shops near Hackensack, NJ

“I love the Paris Baguette chain. I was very excited to run into this location while doing errands. I went in the early morning when all the pastries were still coming out. I was lucky to be treated to such fresh croissants and my regular favorites. This location is special. Their desserts are perfectly sweet! Other chains usually have very sweet custards and iced teas, but this location has their recipe mastered. The mochi donuts were so chewy! The creams and custards were not too sweet which pairs perfectly with their soft breads, flakey croissants, and chewy donuts! The staff were very friendly and packed everything in a careful and neat manner. I can’t wait to treat myself to Hackensack Paris Baguette again!“

And asked for cilantro the only thing was there was more veggie than protein it was overkill on the carrots next time i will ask for less veggies
Bread so fresh and crunchy
The place is nice tiny on the corner
I wish to come back for their desserts for sure“

“I can’t rave enough about Cristina! My family and I have used PDC for every special event. She is so beyond talented- not only has everything she made been aesthetically beautiful, but the flavors to match. If you’re between choosing from a few places, stop the search and choose PDC.“

“Solid cafe for a quick breakfast and coffee. Their almond croissants are pretty good though they don’t have as much almond filling as some other places like Blue Bottle etc. overall it’s pretty solid for a quick bite. This location gets really busy in the morning as it’s next to the hospital. Lots of hospital staff coming during peak morning and afternoon hours.“

“Best coffee in the Heights, their cafe de olla latte, passion fruit matcha and dulce de leche latte live rent free in my heart. The service is very fast and they’re always so kind. They also have a loyalty program (punch card) and a super cute outdoor seating area“

“Uma experiência muito legal, comida boa e bom ambiente, todo num mesmo lugar! Amei… Pedacinho da França na Big Apple! ❤️❤️❤️“

“I stopped by La Farine on the Upper West Side and instantly fell in love with the cozy vibe and the smell of freshly baked pastries. Everything feels so authentic — from the buttery croissants to the perfect coffee.

The staff is friendly and welcoming, and it’s the kind of place that makes you want to slow down and enjoy your breakfast or lunch. My favorites were the almond croissant and the tuna salad in baguette — both absolutely delicious. Definitely one of the best bakeries and coffee spots in the neighborhood.“

“We absolutely love Ciel! Their croissants are the flakiest, most buttery pastries you can imagine, with that perfect crisp exterior and tender, layered interior. And their tarts and other goodies are all light, fresh and flavorful. We’ve ordered birthday cakes from Ciel for friends and family countless times, and they’re always the star of the party. The couple that own this place are so friendly and on top of everything.“

“The Ridgewood Paris Baguette is fantastic. What sets them apart from other locations are the people. Everyone there is great. We visit every Sunday morning and seeing and speaking with Helen and Mae always brings smiles to our faces. They are absolutely positively wonderful !“

“Amazing coffee and deserts. I loved the sandwiches. I highly recommend this place. Also it has a very classy atmosphere. It was simply beautiful to be there.❤️❤️☕️☕️“

“Deliciously bad😀 and a sure treat!“

“Prems Luxury was outstanding! Our driver was friendly, reliable, and made us feel completely safe. It was a girls trip, and I was traveling with my daughter, so safety was a big concern for me. Booking a driver to and from the airport made our trip stress free and so much more enjoyable. Highly recommend and will definitely be using them again when visiting NYC!“

“친절한 사장님^^ 힐링 포인트“

“Really exceptional bakery. The physical presentation was delightful. They sold coffee, even at night! The owner was there burning the midnight oil and we got to chat for a few so that was cool. I had the blueberry yogurt cake and the strawberry cream. Both were food and really focused on the fruit to bring out the sweetness as opposed to relying on artificial sugars for sweetness and that was really different and helped set them apart. Open from early in the morning to midnight most days. Everything looked fresh, we'll kept and inviting. I really feel this business cares.“

“I ran to this location to buy a cake last minute. When I asked whether they can do some writing, I was told this should be done with 24 hr notice. However the guys at the cash register (Senny and Denny) were super nice and made a very cute sign for me anyway, which I really appreciated. Thank you for a quick and friendly service, will def be back!“

“Their cakes are works of art, but most importantly they're delicious! I recently ordered a zen garden cake and was totally blown away by the gorgeous presentation and rich matcha flavor. My friends were surprised to hear it was also vegan!“

“The pancakes, French toast,Eggs Benedict, Cranberry bread turkey,Brie sandwich,just everything you put in your mouth is DELICIOUS 😋😋😋😋😋😋“

“Just the perfect spot for distance working shen in NYC ❤️💜💙“

“Tried the USR location this morning as it's located around the corner from my office. Front staff was friendly, attentive, and helpful with assisting me to navigate options as a first time visitor. There was no line and I quickly received my to-go order. The ham, egg, and cheese croissant was delicious- fluffy and flaky, not at all greasy, and the perfect cheese pull. Can't wait to return to try desserts and coffee!“

“Appreciation post😃 Since 4 days my freshly turned teenage daughter has been saying one thing when I ask her what you want to do on New Year’s Eve …” I want to have kudos bubble tea as the last thing I drink in 2022”. It’s been a tough few months for her and i wanted to make sure she gets her wish. So yesterday morning I called kudos. Asked when they will close for the day. They said 10pm. We scheduled all our plans in such a way that at 9pm we go and get the much anticipated bubble tea. At 9 my husband, son and daughter headed out to kudos… only to find that they have closed at 7 for a private event. This is my back story. On the other side of the story… which probably has its own back story… Cherie the owner had shut the bakery as her daughter wanted to celebrate with her friends and family. As a mother myself I can totally understand that. When she saw my family she informed them that they are closed. But when she heard we had called in morning and saw my daughters dejected face… she opened her doors. Made a quick bubble tea and even gave some extra cookies as a New Years treat. My kids came back so happy saying “mommy it was a holiday miracle!” Thank you Kudo Society Cafe. For providing us one last 2022 miracle. Thank you Cherie for understanding. We have been Kudos patrons since it was at palisades park but now we are die hard advocating neighbors of yours. Ps: pic of the cookie treat. My son ate the red velvet on way home.“

“June 2025, the BEST bakery cafe in all of Spanish Harlem.“

“Capy’s cakes and desserts are absolutely stunning and delicious! I work with Uber Eats, and I can’t help but wonder — have you thought about offering delivery through the app? I’d love for the owner to reach out, as I think Capy would be a perfect fit and a huge hit with customers.“

“Beautiful modern store with gorgeous interior and wonderful floor tiles. They had all popular PB bakery items on display. Lots of sitting area, all clean and well maintained.

We went to get a cake. It was evening hours, so a lot of the popular ones were sold out, still we had 5-6 kinds to pick from. Cake was packed precisely in the box, got knife and candles with it. Staff were very friendly and got our order ready super fast.

The mini strawberry soft cream cake was pure quality. Fluffy soft cake with delicious cream all around it topped with glazed strawberry.

Vegetarian options: Hot and cold drinks, salads, fruit pastries

Parking: Lots of spots in front and around the store“

“Delicious cake! Recently ordered a personalized cake and it came out just like how i wanted! They never dissappoint!! Even when i don’t have time to order ahead of time they always have cakes available for purchase and the staff are always friendly and helpful with reccomendations“

“I often buy cakes from Paris Baguette, and they never disappoint! The cakes are always fresh, perfectly balanced in sweetness, and absolutely delicious. Their coffee is smooth and rich, and the pastries are always fresh, flaky, and full of flavor. It’s my go-to place whenever I need a treat or something special for the family. Highly recommend!“

“I stopped by Ladurée recently and was genuinely impressed. The macaroons and French pastries were absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The staff were warm and welcoming, which made the experience even better. There's seating available, so it’s a perfect spot to relax and enjoy your treats. Highly recommend if you're in the area and craving authentic French pastries!“

“Awesome pastries!!! Would definitely be back if ever in the area.“

“The service always is great. I called ahead and cake was waiting for us. A quick BD reminder and the cake was ready to go. Lilixxx was outstanding.“

“I've been buying from Maritza Cakes for over 20 years, and they truly have the best Dominican Cake, which is soft, fresh, and has just the right amount of sugar. My favorite is 'tres leche', which I've been ordering for years, and my friends and family love it. ❤️ I would give a Million Stars if I could‼️“

“Paris Baguette never disappoints! Their pastries are always fresh and beautifully made — especially the strawberry croissant and cream bread. The coffee is smooth, the atmosphere is bright and welcoming, and everything feels a little bit like a taste of Paris. Definitely one of my go-to spots for a sweet break.“

“Thought I’d stop by after dinner. I was greeted by a super friendly and patient guy and selected an Ube croissant and original/classic tart. The Ube croissant had a very slippery and light filling and a sweet and savory chocolate shell. The outside is flaky and fragrant, but the inside gives rather strong notes of yeast. The tart, however, is perfection. The shell is like a more crumbly version of a vanilla shortbread cookie, and the custard is like a cross between a non-bake cheesecake and pudding. Next time, I will still get the croissant, but I might just eat the top part.“

“Nice team, nice pasties and atmosphere.“

“In the bustling heart of Manhattan, where the city’s energy is palpable, lies a slice of Parisian charm that offers a welcome respite. Paris Baguette on Fifth Avenue is more than just a bakery; it’s a delightful escape into a world of exquisite pastries and savory delights. From the moment you step through the doors, you're greeted with an inviting aroma of freshly baked goods and a display case brimming with artistic creations that are as beautiful to look at as they are delicious to eat.
What truly sets Paris Baguette apart is the sheer variety and quality of its offerings. The pastries, in particular, are a testament to the brand's commitment to excellence. The croissants are a study in perfection—flaky, buttery, and light, they practically melt in your mouth. The pain au chocolat is equally divine, with rich, dark chocolate nestled within layers of golden pastry. And for those with a sweet tooth, the cakes and tarts are nothing short of spectacular. Each one is a work of art, meticulously decorated and bursting with flavor. The strawberry fresh cream cake, for instance, is a light and airy delight, while the tiramisu is a decadent, creamy dream.
But Paris Baguette isn't just for those with a penchant for sweets. Their savory options are equally impressive and make for a perfect meal at any time of the day. On a recent visit for breakfast, I had the pleasure of trying the grilled cheese on sourdough bread, and it was an absolute revelation. The sourdough was perfectly toasted, providing a satisfying crunch, while the cheese was a gooey, melted masterpiece. The combination was simple yet profoundly delicious, and it's a dish I would happily eat again and again. The savory pastries, like the ham and cheese croissant or the sausage roll, are also excellent choices, offering a comforting and flavorful bite.
The ambiance of the Fifth Avenue location adds to the overall experience. It’s a charming place with a cozy, welcoming feel, making it an ideal spot to grab a quick coffee and pastry on the go or to sit down and enjoy a leisurely meal. The staff are friendly and efficient, always ready to assist with a recommendation or a smile. Whether you’re a tourist exploring the city or a local looking for a new favorite spot, Paris Baguette is a highly recommended destination. Its blend of classic French techniques with a modern flair, all within a warm and inviting setting, makes it a true gem in the urban landscape. It's a place that captures the spirit of indulgence and quality, proving that sometimes, the simplest pleasures are the most satisfying.“

“I called to order a cake for my uncle's 90th birthday and Manager Joon personally delivered it to his house bc he wanted to make sure the cake didn't get damaged. I can't say enough about how appreciative I was. Truly great service.“

“Love getting my coffee here every morning. The place is open very early for a local shop and the workers are very friendly. You can also grab some delicious pastries if you are feeling them. Overall great cafe and good vibes. Highly recommend this spot !“

“I love the renovation! Maybe my review had some influence?

Staff is lovely!

The coffee is fair, thin, needs improvement. Closer to taste, texture, of French cafe would be fabulous. I go to a cafe across the street for better Americano, for one.
Hope about better decaf? You’d get more age groups.
Most staff needs decaf training, haha!! Many. new ones don’t know how to make it, say no then yes when experienced staff shows how.

Sandwiches and salads have too much cheese or eggs with cholesterol. The only really good tasting sandwich on whole wheat is turkey avocado , never had egg salad so don’t know. Tuna, chicken, too spicy.
You used to have turkey avocado apple on French bread. Why gone?

The pastries are always great!“

“I do not write many reviews, but this time I really felt the need to do so. It pertains to the Paris Baguette on 6th and 37th. I’ve been going to this location for years (not a NY city resident). I like many things about it: it’s clean, food is always fresh, staff is always great. I usually grab-and-go, but sometimes I do a sit-down. There’s one particular young man (staff member) who always goes out of his way - his name is Alex. I see him straighten out, clean/pick up trash, he’s always quick and very pleasant, but mostly, incredibly helpful. I felt the need to commend this young man to his supervisor - Neil. I suggested they get to choose a staff member every month (sort of Employee of the Month) and reward them fairly for the work and kindness they provide to customers with either a bonus, scholarship funds, etc. Neil was incredibly understanding and agreed. I hope they do so and continue such a trend for anyone deserving of such reward.
My fave foods - the chicken cranberry salad sandwich (exceptional), just about any pastry and cake slices, their raisin bread and the ubiquitous French baguette! 🤤 Till next time I visit!!!“

“Dear Store Manager,

Never again let any customer treat your employees in an inappropriate way. Today, May 23rd, a couple was at the register and the husband was calling a cashier stupid. He said he would not come back to the store until she was fired. Even when another cashier came to assist, he continued cursing at her. I feel so bad. Please, next time, come to the front and stop this type of situation. Your employees don’t deserve it either your Custumers.“

“clean and great atmosphere“

“great quality delicious ice cream friendly staff! definitely worth trying!“

“I like this location better than the York avenue location. The space is bigger and the service seems more pleasant depending on who you get. Is also more centrally located than the York avenue location which is closer to the edge of the island.“

“elegant restaurant nice French food interesting wine list professional and kind service“
