50 Best Bakeries near Ridgefield Park

“She made my dream wedding cake! I was adamant about finding a bakery/baker that’s able to create a heart-shaped cake for my small wedding celebration. Before I speak with Cristal, I had reached out to other well known bakeries in the area, all of which said that they won’t be able to make the cake I’m asking for. But the moment I spoke to Cristal, I knew she will be the one making my cake. She was enthusiastic about making the cake, made it sound very doable, and finished the job in less than a week! She is very talented and takes pride in her work! Don’t hesitate to order a custom cake from her and be confident that your vision will come to life.“

“I ordered a birthday cake for my daughter 25th birthday and it was a total hit! Everyone was raving how fabulous it was! I was impressed with the taste and the presentation. I have been also several times to Dilena's Cafe for lunch and enjoyed both the atmosphere and the food.“

“if you love SE Asian food lady Wong is the one to follow“

“The one and only best cheesecake shop in the world, IMHO.
A timeless classic. I first tasted it some 20 years ago and it has been consistently excellent throughout the years. Never once let me down.
The original remains my firm favourite.“

“Great, Great everything delicious. Outdoor eating area only 4 tables.“

“Customer keeps coming, despite that it is fast moving queue. Generous amount, egg is so fluffy and nice like pudding! I appreciate it. Bagel is fresh and nice too! They only accept cash so do note that. Thankful the cashier is patient with me ordering for the first time as well. Good experience! No dine in.“

“This bakery is hands down one of the best I've ever been to. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm, welcoming vibe, and the service from Santiago, Natalia, and Herwin was exceptional. The food is outstanding—each item is fresh, flavorful, and expertly made. With such a wide variety of baked goods, I can't wait to try them all. Highly recommend!“

“The best macaroons. The crème brûlée and Ferrero rocher were my favs!“

“Delicious pastries and coffee. This is such a lovely bakery, and the owners are so kind. Will definitely keep coming back.

Edited 08.26: I ordered a cake from here for my boyfriend’s birthday and it was really good. I ordered several days ahead, and it had vanilla batter with chocolate butter cream frosting. It was perfect for the occasion and a big hit.“

“Best cannoli in the Bronx. Jerry is a fantastic baker and his wife has the best customer service“

“Best focaccia I’ve had…ever? Stopped in at around 12:30 on a Wednesday - no line and they had plenty of sandwich picks available (but were out of most early morning croissants and pastries). The burrata and prosciutto was delicious. Get anything on their focaccia and you can’t go wrong!“

“Stopped there recently while visiting my daughter. Best Cafe Mocha I’ve ever had! Delicious croissants as well!“

“First, I saw this shop online and was taken aback by the prices and the lines, but it was 100% worth the hype. The cookies are crunchy on the outside, gooey on the inside, full of deep rich chocolate, and as big as a person's hand. I recommend the two chip cookies and the peanut butter dark chocolate cookie. Their lemon bread and chocolate brioche are sold out frequently, so if you have a chance, absolutely purchase them.

Dietary restrictions: Would ask about allergies to nuts and certain ingredients such as flour.“

“Amazing freshly baked cookies“

“Outstanding pastries! My favs are their black and white cookies, (best ever!), brownies and chocolate chip cookies. I find their blueberry muffins and cupcakes to be too small - very tiny.“

“Excellent coffee. I had the batch brew, which was roasted by Regalia.

I think this is the best coffee in midtown - best batch brew at least. Black fox alwaus goes for such high extractions the coffee tastes a little “thin”. This tasted like something in the 1:16-17 range, and had a lovely body & sweetness, in addition to bright clarity.

They have several roasters on retail: Onyx Coffee, Sey, and another I didn’t recognize.

Oh, and the passion fruit curd brioche was excellent as well.“

“Amazingly delicious treats! We loved the cloud cake and earl grey puff! It’s to die for! The teas we bought were amazing too! I only have one request, please open up a store in Chicago so I can enjoy your amazing treats more regularly!“

“Best bread of my stupid life. I refuse to believe anything they sell is as good as this here heavenly most holy walnut loaf. For 12 dollars, this bread lasted me a week, in that time it brought so much joy, did my homework, cleaned my house, lifted my depression, I ate it all and I miss it so much that this is painful to write. The toast this made. The SANDWICHES. That this bread gave me. Go here and get this, tell then I sent you maybe they'll give me a deal or start sending me loaves or teach me their magical ways. I think I'm gonna have to do a real 180 and start anew as a bread maker because what better thing could I bring to the world but this bread? What could anyone?“

“Just had a delicious meal here and highly recommend it to everyone! our server, Maria was amazing and guided us in our menu choices.“

“I work for a law firm in CA and we have an employee who works remotely in NY.. For our employee's birthday I wanted to choose a bakery close to her home and who was local. Stumbled upon Buttercup Bake Shop and they were so awesome! Totally worked with me and delivered the cupcakes with NO hassle. Needless to say our NY employee was super happy and LOVED the flavors and decorations of the cupcakes. ❤️“

“This is my favorite coffee/pastry shop in my neighborhood. The cakes/pastries are delicious and baked daily. Lots of variety too, including savory -their parmesan / leek pastry is to die for. Oh, and don't get me started on their chocolate vanilla cake which I took to an event where everyone raved about it!“

“OMG...this IS the best sponge cake you'll have in NYC. I've had my fair share looking for one that compares to the original Kam Hing. The owner apprenticed with the original Kam Hing owner and finally opened his own cafe! Can't go wrong with the original flavor but the pandan coconut is sooooo goood! it's my new fav! This is my new go to place for sponge cakes!“

“This place is so fun! I came here and it's so cheap to get a ton of baked goods.

Good:
- Super fast service - got in and out incredibly fast
- Cheap - $1/sponge cake, the original is honestly so good and isn't too sweet but satisfies the sweet tooth in me
- Quirky interior design

Bad:
- Cash only! Make sure you've got cash since the line moves quickly

Overall this place was such a great find and hole in the wall!“

“The kunafe is so good with the ice cream on top of the kunafe you should try it especially with Zubeyir 5 star service“

“MLW is a classic spot, especially if you're into those famous pork buns (char siu bao) that everyone talks about. The buns are soft, sweet, and packed with flavorful roast pork – definitely a must-try. Besides the buns, they’ve got other dim sum items and pastries like dumplings and egg tarts, and they’re all pretty tasty. It's affordable too, which is why so many locals love it. As for the vibe, it's super casual – don’t expect anything fancy. It’s a bit old-school, with limited seating, so it's perfect if you're just looking for a quick, no-fuss bite.
Overall, if you’re in Chinatown and want something cheap and delicious, Mei Lai Wah is definitely worth checking out. Just go for the pork buns!“

“I normally recommend this bakery to everyone. However, yesterday morning I went to your Brooklyn location to bring home bombalones for family. This morning the strawberry on top on one is literally covered in mold. This is absolutely unacceptable! Unfortunately I'm already back out of state so I can't even come back to get an exchange. I spent around $75 yesterday.... and I get MOLDY food.“

“Good bakery serving Nordic bread and pastries. They also have their own coffee roasters. Some seats indoor and outdoor.
(The air inside was really stinky and strong which I won’t recommend to stay inside. Myself, clothes, and stuff became smelly after staying.)

Pastries: ✨??Tebirkes is a MUST! (The staff even recommended it than their cardamom buns!) Really really rich “transformed” almond croissant. The combination of almond paste inside and the sesame topping outside was amazing. It deepened the taste so much.

✨Cinnamon bun was delicious too, better than average. Slightly sticky and doughy.

???Danish rye bread was my VIP. Moist and soft with a solid, crunchy edge. It is not easy to find this kind of European bread in the city.

For coffee, I do recommend! ☕️?Cappuccino was creamy and tasted well balanced.

Would like to try the signature cardamom bun and cookies next time.“

“I had never heard of this place, but a friend suggested it. I was looking for a new bagel shop, so I figured I'd try it out. I was first in a line that I thought was for Popup Bagels but it was for Leon's... make sure you're at the right place! Popup Bagels didn't have a line, which was bittersweet. A line doesn't necessitate quality and experience but it did make me wonder. I enjoyed the aesthetic of Popup Bagels, the music, and the service. The guy who helped me was kind and efficient. But the best part of this place is how freaking good their bagels are! Whew! They're light, hot and fresh, and tasted great! I got two sesame and one everything, with plain smear. So far, the sesame is the only one I've tried, but I'm stoked to try the everything bagel! I got these to share but they might not make it to my friends ?“

“Levain Bakery's cookies are absolutely Fantastic! I have ordered twice so far and sent another order as a gift. The cookies are delivered fresh, visually accurate as far as size and shape and the taste outstanding! I ordered from another company and the cookies that came looked nothing like the advertisement and didn't taste that great. The cookies have just the right texture, not over or under cooked and are consistant in quality and taste. This will be my go to cookie company when I don't feel like baking myself.“

“amazing hot chocolate and cakes. i am not sure the wait to sit in is worth it though as i felt a little rushed. but to take away you wont be dissapointed.“

“Fantastic food, bit overpriced. But new stars in the neighbourhood. The Lady boss known as Fel Cassieli is actualy ex-pornstar and nude model Lenka Janistinova, a true beauty (playboy/Penthouse). And her friend is Michael Munzing, producer of SNAP ‘i’ve got the power’!!! So 3 times 5 stars from me ??“

“I had a great experience with this bakery. They made my daughter's birthday cake above and beyond what I asked for and even delivered it to the birthday venue. I also have gotten nut-free treats from them for a school birthday celeration which were a huge hit.“

“Unbelievably good individual cheesecakes. Always fresh and really tasty. I definitely recommend this store.“

“I go to confession after eating a Parisi Sandwich. It has to be a sinful because they are too good to be true.“

“Staff was super nice and explained what each bun was. There's no seating, but we stood to the side to try out the buns.

The buns were very soft and had the right amount of moisture, not soggy at all. The filling was flavorful.

We ended up getting three boxes for about $20!“

“A lovely bakery with delicious baked goods and a nice seating area. They have space inside and a few tables outside. Bomboloni was super tasty, got the chocolate one, and it had a perfect amount of filling and wasn't overly sweet. Seasonal pastry was even better, made with almond flour tasted slightly like marzipan and had figes, so yum! Coffee is good as well. And their foccacias look amazing, too.“

“So amazing and dont discouraged with the line“

“My sisters and I were there in October 2022, and we had a beautiful experience! The pastries were delicious (lemon ginger tart was our favorite) and the atmosphere and customer service were divine! The shop is gorgeous and the lady behind the counter was so very nice and welcoming ☺️! We live in PA but we'll definitely be back in the spring“

“Sent as a gift to family in Maryland and my in-laws raved about Hands Down Cookies! They even asked for more! Love to support an amazing, local small business like Hands Down Cookies. Will definitely order again soon!“

“So delicious! All the staff is very friendly and helpful with answering any questions. The almond croissants are a must try besides the chocolate babka. The lattes are also the best around the area even though it’s pricy. Everything in here is pricy but the quality is there. In a good location as well to stop by for dessert, to get your bread for the week or to have a full meal to treat yourself. Definitely will go back but not too often other wise I’ll go broke! Definitely recommend to try this place, I only have 4 stars because of pricing but I understand for a lot of business to survive at this time, the pricing is what it is. Especially if you want high quality.“

“SUPER FRIENDLY SERVICE ! We were having a hard time finding good tasting bread while on vacation in Manhattan, NY even in Whole Foods Market in Harlem. My wife and I were doing some leisure wear shopping Downtown and found this French bakery around 4.30pm before we took the subway back to our place. Olivia the cashier was very sweet to us. We bought a couple of lovely looking Baguetttes and a loaf of artisan Sourdough Bread ! Both tasted fabulous with dinner and breakfast !“

“Went to El Barrio location and my kids loved the cookies!!“

“Everyone hates the big company and pushes for the underdog and that's cool but when it comes to groceries and you have dietary restrictions I feel Whole Foods is a real good option. The aura with the expensive soap ? section always uplifts my mood and attitude. The Good Soaps and their brand of soap is like 3 to 4 dollars a bar which I think is fair. Fair prices in my opinion for what you get. They get the majority of my grocery money ?. Bathrooms are not hidden in a sketchy storage area either.“

“The cookies were great, and my cake was hot. I was respected by the workers and they gave me my order within minutes of my pickup order, the atmosphere wasn’t so great because everyone wanted their cookies and the delivery and other lines were getting antsy.“

“The food and the place itself is absolutely amazing as well as the employees“

“I recently went on a tour of bakeries in New York and heard that they were delicious, so I decided to visit. The inside of the store is bright and clean, giving you a good impression! I bought a baguette and a raisin roll and both were very tasty, especially the baguette, which was the best tasting thing I've ever bought in New York! Although it is located in a location that is a little difficult to access, I would definitely like to visit again!“

“Great caterer !!!! Deserves 10 stars! Fabulous four foot Charcuterie Board that served over 30 people. Salmon -Chicken- Shrimp and Cold Cuts with vegetables, cheeses, fruits and cheeses. Professional servers are top rated. Great to work with from the start of planning to day of. They did a Summer non alcoholic drink bar and an iced tea and iced coffee bar. Tasty ice cream chipwiches to top off a great party catered by La Promenade. Would recommend for your next party! Thank you to Cynthia, Jenny and Sam and the rest of you at La Promenade for making our party the best ever! Great value! Highly recommend!!!“

“Nice employees … delicious and unique desserts … I will definitely come back here …“

Parking: You have to park in the main street
