Very good bakery. Quality deserts provided; just a little pricey so be prepared when arriving.

My go to bakery for birthday cakes for special occasions and cup cake cravings on a normal day. I stumbled upon it in 2020 and haven’t gone anywhere else since ?
Cocoa Bakery in Jersey City is a delightful spot that captivates with its inviting aroma and warm atmosphere. The service is excellent--friendly staff make you feel right at home. I appreciated the variety of vegan and gluten-free options available. I tried the cupcake of the day, a chocolate chip and white chocolate creation, and it was absolutely delicious; rich, moist, and perfectly balanced.
While some seats could use a bit of maintenance, the overall vibe is cozy. I'm looking forward to my next visit to try the truffles. If you're in the area, Cocoa Bakery is definitely worth a stop!

The best cake truffle I've ever had. I buy cake truffles here when I really want to eat sweet desserts. My favorite cake truffles are carrot cake, chocolate, birthday cake, etc.. It's hard to say what I don't like. The price is reasonable, too. They sell many kinds of bakeries, such as cupcakes, cakes, cookies, and more which look great But I haven't tried them yet. You may not want to try their coffee. If you want great coffee, there is another coffee shop nearby. There are no indoor seats, but there are a few outdoor seats.

Unfortunately this cute place has a dirty bathroom. Toilet looked like it had not been cleaned in ages!! I was shocked about this and as a result I will not be returning. Please, manage your restroom!!!

I’m extremely disappointed with my experience with Cocoa Bakery. I have been a loyal, local customer, however, when I placed a cupcake order for a really special event (order placed far in advance with clear instructions, credit card on file, etc.), the store completely forgot about my order when I went to pick it up. My order was sent to a different location and the store told me that I should drive an hour to pick up the order and at best only offered me a 20% discount when I complained. They couldn’t even give me new, random cupcakes for free. They did nothing to remedy my situation other than a 20% discount on new cupcakes and trying putting the burden on me to drive an hour to get my cupcakes. They even told me to order them on Grubhub myself. I’m extremely disappointed with the service.

Cocoa has long been our favorite local, Jersey City bakery for all things sweet. From their truffles to birthday cakes and cupcakes to hot chocolate, we love it all. When it came time for desserts for our rehearsal dinner, we knew we needed to treat our loved ones to delicious desserts from Cocoa. They were quick to respond and extremely helpful in answering all our questions as we ordered a selection of cupcakes. They offer a variety of flavors and are willing to customize your order for what you need. We received so many compliments from our guests and the cupcakes disappeared a lot quicker than we expected! The staff at the Grand Street location are also always pleasant and polite and we always enjoy our experience when we visit. We highly recommend considering Cocoa for any of your bakery needs, whether it be for a wedding, birthday party, or just to stop in to grab something incredible to eat!

Very disappointed in customer service. No one answers the grand street locations phone. I’ve left multiple messages and moved close by 2 years ago and have tried now to place an order via phone 3x to no avail. Definitely lost my business.
Hands down the best hot drinks on a cold day at nearby Liberty State Park. We had delicious hot chocolate, chai latte, and chai hot cocoa . Rich, creamy and not too sweet.

Quaint little place, great service and the lemon raspberry cake was amazing!

Seems like this was their first day in business. So disorganized, was asked if I wanted a croissant warmed but then it was just cold when I got it. Latte, was just milk with a splash of coffee. I would not come back to this place given the disorganization. It’s mind boggling to get such a different experience in store given the positive reviews.

The cakes from Cocoa Bakery are phenomenal. Moist cakes and smooth, rich buttercream. Delicious! I've also gotten cookies, truffle cakes, cupcakes. Everything is made with care. The quality is exceptional.
