I finally had a chance to try Cornbread Montclair. I was very pleased with my food. I ordered the Fried Chicken Meal with a side of Potato Salad & Yams. The Yams and Cornbread was my favorite.

?✨ A Dining Experience to Remember! ✨?
Walking into this spot, you’re immediately greeted by vibes for days – a perfect mix of warmth, style, and soul. From the first glance to the last bite, every detail has been crafted to create a true haven of comfort, beauty, and incredible flavors. ?✨
? Ambience & Aesthetic: This place is pure aesthetic heaven. Live plants add a lush, earthy vibe, while the stunning tables and floors tie the whole look together, giving it that cozy, chic feel. Every corner feels intentional, and the art on the walls brings a personality that just makes you want to stay and soak it all in. ??
? Music: The playlist? Perfection. ?? It feels like the heartbeat of the room, setting a chill but lively atmosphere that’s perfect for anything from a family meal to a date night. The tunes just pull you in, making you feel right at home.
? The Food: Let’s talk about that mac ’n cheese! This isn’t just any mac ’n cheese – it’s the kind that makes you feel like you’re back at Auntie’s house on a Sunday afternoon. Each forkful is pure, cheesy goodness, rich and comforting, like that first bite that makes kids run in from outside yelling, “DINNERTIME!” ?️? The chicken, greens, and yams were also top-notch, each one a testament to flavors that feel like home. It’s more than just food; it’s a trip down memory lane with every bite. ?
?? Staff: The team here is beyond incredible! From the warm welcome to the attentive service, they make you feel like family. Friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate, they add that extra sparkle to the whole experience. ???
Final Word? Loving god vibes good and a great space….- this place hits all the marks. It’s where flavors meet family, where aesthetics meet artistry, and where every corner invites you to savor, relax, and stay a while. ??
If you’re looking for more than just a meal, but a whole experience, this is it. Trust me – you’ll leave with a full belly, a happy heart, and already planning your next visit. ??️

Nasty. Place is tailored for other certain demographics.
Those who know REAL soul food, know this not it.
Mac and cheese— horrible. Way too creamy. Definitely not anything like real baked mac and cheese.
Yams are bland.
Baked chicken is decent.
Cornbread was the best part.
Looking for real soul food? Try Tasha’s in East Orange or even Madre and Son in Newark.
Never again.

I just love this place and the vibes it gives. I genuinely feel at home when i come to eat at cornbread. This is a place where my friends and I come together and fuse our different cultures in some amazing soul food. The food here is amazing, it is the only place where i genuinely finish my whole plate of food. I believe this is closest i can get to heaven without actually dying. Thank you God for Cornbread in Montclair, NJ.

No lack of flavor! Believe the reviews .. I'm here 2x in 2 days! The service is great, food is tasty, made fresh, not greasy at all. Chicken is juicy! I'll be back for the catfish & peach cobbler bc they smell delicious. The cornbread is fluffy without being cakey. One side is better than the next, try the mac and cheese, rice and gravy, candy yams, and the collard greens. No complaint about anything. Hey chickens almost done it's fresh so okay you can park right up there okay Don't hesitate to try this spot.
