“I just had the best cake for my son’s 50th. Not only did it look great but it was delicious! I will be back for every event! Their pastries were amazing as well and the girl behind the counter couldn’t have been more helpful. She even brought the cake to my car!!“

“This is an incredible neighborhood gem! I saw this place was recommended on NextDoor so when I was in Monroe, NJ for a doctors appt on Thurs. 1/29, I made a point to stop here. I ordered a cappuccino(or maybe a latte, I can't remember) and the #5 breakfast caprese. Both were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious! Coffee drink had cinnamon added which was an extra sieve all touch. And they brought both to my table. It was a bit in the pricier side but the portions and food quality made it worth it. Highly recommend! Just wish I lived closer! I want to try their perogis.“

“Best dessert, platter of custom cupcakes, and brownies. Ashley took care of everything as if it was for her own family. I certainly will be back for everything else I need. Thank you Ashley and Cacia!“

“these pretzels are the best“

“Thank you for sponsoring food for the Annual Asha-Jyothi 5K event. Everybody enjoyed the Biryani.“

“If you’re looking for someone to make your kid’s birthday extra special, look no further than Gimme S’more! 💕 I used them for my son’s 5th birthday and I was blown away. The owner was such a great communicator and seriously went above and beyond. She even ordered the monster trucks herself to make my son's cake vision come to life! and let me tell you, a monster truck crashing into the cake is about as cool as it gets for a 5-year-old boy. 🛞💥🎂 My son was obsessed! And the Funfetti cupcakes? Oh. My. Gosh. SO moist, so yummy, and they disappeared faster than I could grab one for myself 😂. To top it off, she delivered everything right to the party which made life 100x easier. Highly recommend!! Gimme S’more CRUSHED 🏁 it! 🧁✨“

“Went for the first time 2 years ago and have been back just about every Friday since! Go for the incredibly unique and delicious pies, sandwiches, galettes, cookies, cakes, etc. and stay for the equally as amazing hospitality and service. The staff here feels like family and goes out of their way to ensure every Friday is as amazing as our first visit! Our family loves the excitement of waiting for the menu to come out every Thursday to see what new creation they’ve come up with and what delicious classics will be available.“

“We just had Tuscany Old Bridge BBQ cater our wedding this past weekend. They surpassed every expectation! Anne treated us as if she has known us for years! She took such good care of us. Our griller, Mike and his wife Pat who was our server, were absolutely the best! Our 60 family and friends are still raving about the food! It made our wedding such a memorable occasion! I highly, highly recommend them. We will be repeat customers!“

“I usually never leave a review, but I have to leave a review for Paris Baguette at this location. The service is stellar, and the employees there are so knowledgeable so quick and so eager to help. This is my first time at Paris Baguette in store, and it won't be my last. Thank you for all your help!“

“Bagels are so delicious and fresh! We’re taking 2 dozen home to Virginia!“

“Very nice and friendly Great bagels“

“We ordered a cake very late before an event, they were so nice and prompt about it. we told them that we wanted the cake to be tall and gold, gave them the flavors, and told them to design it however they wanted! the cake was decorated amazing! it’s gorgeous. and usually pretty cakes don’t taste good but it was so moist! we got the canoli, and chocolate fudge and the canoli is sooo good! chocolate was also good but we all liked canoli better! the cake was 80$ super affordable compared to other places, it fed about 16-20 people!! totally recommend!!“

“Had a catering order. Placed the order a week in advance. The morning if pickup, the order states that it was ready when it was not. Got to the store and told them i was there for a catering pickup. No one said anything and they started to scramble to package everything. We paid extra to get the cookies in individual boxes. Upon getting the order noticed that nothing was in individual boxes. Now I have to scramble before an event to package these things. Do not get a large order from here.

Edit: cookies were delicious and we still had to make the boxes and pack the cookies ourselves the morning of our event but the store did right by us and gave us a refund.“

“Best bread in the area I love the challah breads and cheese danish the freshest I’ve ever tasted. Will be back again and again because this place really is a gem. There aren’t anymore bakery’s in New Jersey so I’m happy they are open?“

“Best fruit cake I ever had“

“I had an amazing experience @The Market On Main .Now, under new ownership by a dear friend! The updated menu is a real treat, blending classic Greek flavors with exciting new twists. I tried the platter / Pita chips & Dips, plump chef and the veggie Reggie it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The new desserts are a must-try. The vibe is warm and welcoming, perfect for a casual dinner . Service was friendly and attentive, and you can feel the love in everything they do. So proud of what they've built! Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area. 💙#SupportLocal #GreekCuisine #ProudFriend“

“Amazing freshly baked bread and is always available!“

“Stopped by Paris Baguette and had such a great experience I had to share.

Diogo, Sara, and Jessi were all super friendly and made everything smooth—from the coffee to the pastries. The iced cappuccino was perfect, and the croissants were fresh and delicious.

But the highlight was this BEAUTIFUL cappuccino cake. Jenny did an amazing job writing “For Enzo’s Mom” on it, and the whole design looked unreal—like an actual cup of coffee! You can tell there’s real care and creativity behind it.

Everything looked as good as it tasted. Great service, great energy, and amazing desserts. Definitely coming back!“

“First amazing owners, the flavor the presentation of all their pastries and breads are amazing from the sweet bread to their big variety of breads with ham and cheese to die for. Great and amazing cakes for any special occasion.
A pastry shop and bakery with excellent owners. A variety of wonderful pastries and bread. They also make incredible cakes for special occasions, all with a good Portuguese flavor.“

“They will make the hot coffee fresh if you ask them to-which of course they should. If you're pre-diabetic maybe cinnamon rolls are not the best food to eat, but delicious. No, I do not indulge often. Not often at all because I'm currently far from wealthy. I'm far from rolling in the dough. No pun intended. The young woman with the glasses is kind, and I do not mean that in a weird way. Actually, one of the employees will not always make it fresh-communicating to me they made it 45 minutes ago & will not make it again. Yes, I contacted the owner about the profoundly rude behavior towards me on more than one occasion without getting into specifics.“

“I Love this bagel shop. Especially the french toast bagels. It's small, but it has a very friendly atmosphere. And the service is great. Good coffee. Many different kinds of cream cheese and bagels to choose from. They also have a good selection of cold drinks too. The Servers give you service of smile. Not sure of what time they open but I know the close at 3 PM and it's a cash only business, but there is a ATM on the premises. So if you're anywhere near the shopping center In one , try something good to Yorktown Bagel“
