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!“

“I ordered a sandwich to go it was tasty i asked for grilled chicken w/ no spice
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“

“Great customer service! Loved the cereal milk soft serve the most 🍦“

“Everything we ate at Moroccan Bites by Siham was so delicious! The lamb tagine, pastilla, and couscous with chicken were incredible. You could tell the dishes were prepared with fresh ingredients and with care. And the refreshing mint tea complimented our dishes. One of the best meals I’ve had in awhile. Can’t wait to see their new space on Steinway street!“

“Thank you for your generous donation to Glen Rock High School! The desserts were delicious! Can’t wait to go back and pick up some more desserts for my family!“

“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“

“The beautiful cake prepared by Petal and Dust for my daughter’s bridal shower was amazing! Both the espresso martini and dulce de leche flavors were delicious! They were also able to provide gluten free cupcakes for guests with dietary restrictions. Delivery was promptly and extremely courteous! Highly recommend!“

“There is so much positive vibes and a flow to how the traffic comes in and leaves. Never have to wait long for a sear to dine in or do some work to prep myself for the day for work. Or to just sit alone reset or plan the layout of my day

This location is small not much choices of all the items available and also seating is limited but the space is small to begin with.

The staff is so caring warm and attentive. Every pastry beverage and prepared products are fresh and staff is out and about moving items cleaning and restocking as soon as they see the need for it.

This is my frequented little cozy shop and I wouldn't have it any other way“

“So pretty and so delicious!!! Too bad I forgot to take a picture of my dad’s birthday cake.. I made an online order(it was easy!) of chocolate lava cake and it was one of the most delicious Choco lava I have ever had!! I have a picture of some other ones….“

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

“I walked into this café because I was drawn to its beautiful aesthetic, and I couldn’t have made a better choice.

The pastries were freshly baked and absolutely delicious, and the whole place is filled with natural light and lovely details. It has such a calm, welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay for a while.

My favs: Dulcey Cafe Cylinder and Paris Brest 🥐

A true hidden gem on the Upper West Side!🤍“

“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.“

“I frequent this location to grab my morning coffee and I will say the staff here make my morning a lot better. Danny, Laura & Cristina are stand outs. They know how to handle the morning rush with accuracy, kindness and efficiency. I see how they take the time to make recommendations on different goods P.B offers but also remember what frequent customers like myself order. Paris Baguette is lucky to have exceptional staff that go above and beyond.“

“Great location near Penn Station, great coffee, not too busy like other NYC places, great service. BUT please for the love of all that is holy turn down the music. It's so blaringly loud! I get it's the holidays, but it's noon and people want to work or talk to the person in front of them, it's ridiculous..left much earlier than I planned because of obnoxious the volume level is.“

“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 !“

“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!“

“Great communication throughout, Ambrose and Munesh were both really friendly. Would definitely use again.“

“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.“

“친절한 사장님^^ 힐링 포인트“

“Delicious food, great service and clean!!! Really enjoyed our pizza and pastries!“

“Deliciously bad😀 and a sure treat!“

“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“

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

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“You’ve never tasted cakes like this before in your life. Absolutely the ultimate. I had people at my party that never eat cake tell me that they had four pieces and they wanted more. Super fresh… Super unbelievable… Completely outstanding.“

“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!“

“Nice team, nice pasties and atmosphere.“

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

“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 ❤️💜💙“

“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!“

“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.“

“Overall, it’s a decent place with tasty pastries. However, prices have gone up recently - and quite noticeably, in my opinion. Considering that the pricing was already on the higher side, this increase doesn’t feel great. Still, every business sets its own prices, so I can’t really judge them for that.

Unfortunately, there’s another downside I’ve noticed lately, which is the main reason I stopped going there. I usually ordered the Caesar Sandwich, but the last two times were a big disappointment. The first time I thought it might have been a one-off mistake, but the second time confirmed it wasn’t. The sandwich was insanely salty - honestly, as if they added five times more salt than necessary. I have no idea who this level of saltiness is meant for. Both times I had to throw it away.

Because of that, I’ve unfortunately decided to stop visiting this place.“

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

“The food is absolutely delicious, and the coffee is excellent. The pricing, in my opinion, is incredibly fair for the quality you get. The staff at this branch, in particular, are so welcoming and friendly. It's near my language school, and I stop by for coffee almost every day. I love this place and highly recommend it. If you find yourself in the area, you must visit! It’s my favorite cafe. Special thanks to all the employees. ♥️“

“The tarts are delicious! I think that's the only justifiable thing for the price. They are a bit small but you get more for your dollar by getting a bundle. I got three tarts; Original, Matcha and Ube. The tarts appear to be baked through, like what you would expect a cheesecake's texture to be like but actually it's the opposite. The tarts are very creamy inside. Almost like biting into a pudding. Out of the three flavors I got, I really enjoyed Ube and Matcha the most. On a previous visit I enjoyed a Sakura blossom one but it has been retired unfortunately. I definitely think these are perfect to gift to someone or even to just enjoy by yourself.“

“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 !“

“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.“

“Great service and great selection even towards the end of the night. I've gone to other locations that were out of items by the afternoon but this location did not disappoint at near closing time. The two young ladies that work there were super sweet and helpful. I wish I would've gotten their names to give them proper recognition. I'll definitely be returning. Oh and try the biscoff donuts and cake! 🤤“

“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‼️“

“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“

“Came here multiple times with my best friend and tonight I decided to take my daughters and boy did they enjoy the sweets. My 6 year said the which chocolate mocha ( hot ) was delicious and my 9 year old enjoyed her hot chocolate. Cute place to come some tea , coffee , etc, enjoy some sweets and have a good night ❤️“
