“greate food , good place and people“

“Loved this cute little place!!! My daughter and I were out and about, and wanted to get some coffee, but not from the regular “chain” coffee shop, so after a quick search, we headed to Metuchen. We were lucky enough to get parking right outside, and walked in to be pleasantly surprised by the esthetic vibe. Everything was super clean, and we were greeted right away by the super friendly employee. My daughter ordered a cappuccino and I got iced coffee. We also got a cheese and pesto savory pastry and a passion fruit and coconut tres leches dessert. Everything was delicious!!!!! Thanks for the enjoyable experience. We will definitely return.“

“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! 🧁✨“

“great“

“They did a great job on a custom cake. Fair price, pretty and tasty.“

“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!!“

“Thank you making a great cake for my daughter Janelle Bridal Shower! The cake was very fresh and good! Very one loved it! I will alway get my cakes there! Thank you for help me getting in the car yesterday!!“

“From price quote, to cake pickup, to eating I had a phenomenal experience. I splurged for my 30th birthday for a custom cake. La Bon was affordable for what I wanted which was amazing. Their staff was incredibly sweet, professional, and all around pleasant. And the cake? Oh my God. I couldn't ask for a better outcome. I provided a reference photo and the result was an exact match. Flavor wise? Impeccable. I don't know what it is about these cakes but it was hands down the best cake I've ever had in my life. It was decadent but not too sweet (especially with black frosting, I was pleasantly surprised), perfectly piped frosting, and perfectly light and flavorful strawberries and cream filling. I will 100% be trusting all my future cakes to la bon from now on!“

“Everything in this establishment is just delicious and a bit of heaven. From the service to the cleanliness to the most delicious food and let’s not forget how wonderful the owners and staff treat you. I’ve been here two times and I always leave with a smile on my face. And a nice full stomach their food is outrageous. Their service is impeccable and I highly recommend them. Thank you for always being nice to me and my children when we go to your establishment.“

“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!“

“Brenda, who works the cashier at the Paris Baguette is seriously amazing! I went in last week during the afternoon rush, and despite the chaos, she was super friendly and helpful. It's not just that she's efficient at ringing people up; she actually makes you feel welcome.

I was having a tough day, and her cheerful attitude totally turned things around. She recommended the mochi donuts, which were delicious, by the way! You can tell she really enjoys her job and cares about the customers.

Honestly, in a world where customer service can sometimes be lacking, Brenda shines. She's a total asset to that Paris Baguette, and I'll definitely be back, not just for the pastries, but also for the great service!“

“I've tried a couple of mochi donuts here and they are all amazing! Not too sweet and the flavors all hit the mark. I've recently stopped by and noticed they had Christmas themed donuts, which is think is so cute, they would be great to bring to a party or to gift to someone.“

“This is my second cake from Abbate and it was a complete success for my daughters graduation party! Excellent quality! And packaged perfect for transport!“

“Papa Ganache is by far my favorite gluten-free bakery/eatery in NJ. They are so beyond accommodating and the food tastes too good to be real! They did my wedding cake too! Highly recommend.“

“Great food and friendly service!!!“

“Love the organic ingredients being used and the comment card suggesting freezing if you can’t finish is much appreciated. I can only eat 1/4- 1/2 so the balance is going in the freezer!“

“Best fruit cake I ever had“

“OMG! This place is to die for! So delicious! Cupcakes that literally melt in your mouth! Such a friendly atmosphere! I would drive a 100 miles to eat here! Absolutely Fantastic! It's like a mouth ecstasy! Literally to die for!“

“Thank you for making the most beautiful cake on short notice! Absolutely delicious! What could be better than cookie dough ice cream and cake? Awesome job 🧡“

“We couldn’t have been happier with our wedding cake! Each layer was absolutely delicious and thoughtfully crafted: a vanilla cake with custard and fresh strawberries, a chocolate cake with cannoli filling, and a vanilla cake with mango mousse. Not only was it a stunning centerpiece with beautiful fall-inspired colors, but every bite was incredible. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about it! The team did an amazing job bringing our vision to life. Highly recommend this cake shop for any special occasion!“

“Absolutely LOVE the pittah bread It’s like eating a baked cloud“

“I ordered a bridal shower cake for my daughter and I’m so happy I chose Dorsi’s to bake it!! It was absolutely beautiful and taste even better!!! I highly recommend Dorsi’s for any of your specialty cake needs!!! Beautiful job! 👏👏👏“

“OMG..Amelia & Rose Hot Chocolate Bombs are the ultimate treat!! There explode perfectly even in dairy free milk❤️ ..and the packaging is do beautiful.. They were a hit on Christmas 🎄 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I really like this place! I had a coffee and it was good. Since it was my first time here, the bakery was crowded inside, which limited indoor seating, so I had to sit outside—but I didn’t mind. The service was a bit slow with a moderately long line, but the bakery was clean and the staff were friendly. I’ll definitely be returning and recommend giving this place a try!“

“I ordered a Baked Bouquet for my grandma’s 99th birthday and it was a huge hit! When we brought it out, everyone genuinely thought it was a real flower arrangement — the detail was unbelievable. People were actually hesitant to eat it because it looked so pretty!

But once we did, wow — the cupcakes were fresh, soft, and delicious. Not overly sweet, just really good. My grandma loved it and so did the rest of the family. It added such a special touch to the celebration. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something unique and beautiful and tasty!“

“Many Colombian eateries in the area, and an equally diverse mix of bakeries. However this is the one I visit the most because it's delicious, consistent (!), inexpensive, and clean. Don't be put off by any lines inside, they move quickly. A+ all around!“

“I absolutely love Vincenzo! His personality, energy, creativity and designs are all magical!
He is a true artist and his medium is Fondant. If you want someone who gets excited to create something special for you and enjoys the creative process Vincenzo Salvatore is your person!

Not only are his cakes a work of art, they are delicious. I think my husbands favorite part of wedding planning was going to the cake tastings!

When planning a wedding it's important to align yourself with vendors/creatives who see your vision and get excited for you!
Vincenzo was our number 1 fan throughout the entire process!“

“Sal made my son’s birthday cake and it was amazingly delicious and he’s so talented with the decor. Highly recommend this bakery and pastries were delicious as well. Thank you Sal“

“Never disappointed when I order from Bittersweet Bake Shoppe. My family and I have used them since the start for birthdays, communions, and party favors. Everyone raves about the quality of their desserts and how amazing their creations look. Sam and Carissa are so professional and kind and will make sure your dessert dreams come true. You cannot go wrong ordering them!“

“The whole process was seamless! From ordering to making payment to pick-up. PLUS the cake was stunning and delicious!! Will most definitely be ordering from Marie’s Sweet Designs again!!“

“Along with sweet savory deserts, the owners and staff were so pleasant!!“

“We have Used Mordys To cater our son’s bar mitzvah, and the food was fresh and delicious.
The bagels were one of the best ones we’ve ever had. The platters looked beautiful. The ordering process and the help with figuring out quantities was pleasant and helpful.
Happy with our experience.
Definitely will use again for a next event. Highly recommend.“

“Shop was clean, quiet, good atmosphere, tons of choices of baked goods and polite staff. We got the small Chocolate and Strawberry Custard cake. It was so tasty! Not too sweet, soft in consistency, great layering. If you get a custard cake, expect it to “drool?” since it’s mainly custard inside. Preferably finish it all at once. It was best fresh and almost just as enjoyable a day later; but I wouldn’t recommend storing it any longer.“

“todo muy bueno 100% recomiendo“

“Yummy!! Love the speciality donuts!!“

“LaBon made my granddaughters first birthday cake that needed to be eggless due to allergies. What a beautiful cake and she loved it! Thank you so much for making her day special!“

“great customer service! Just roll up before the gates and run inside with your paperwork. Even if the order is not already picked, they will tell you to back up to door number one, or two, and then they'll pick the order quickly! Very little waiting here! A pleasure!“

“So yum! Great recommendation from my sis in law.“

“Street parking but it's plentiful for the area so you won't have any issues.

The interior is beautiful with lots of photo opporunities inside.

Their cappuccino is just right. Guava pastry is good. They have empanadas and other patry items like cupcakes, brownies, macarons, etc.

Worth a stop if you have time and are in the area.

They make cakes for special occasions as well.“

“Sweet Lady! Excellent cakes! Best prices! GREAT taste. I highly recommend for best flavors, decorations, and customer service. She and her son will go above and beyond for all your needs I am truly blessed to have found such a great home family Bakery at my service“

“My home away from home! Or is my home my home away from home? Either way, come visit me sometime! <3“

“I ordered a maple cold brew with pistachio cold foam from their winter menu and a few donuts. It was all delicious!“

“This small Mexican bakery tucked on a side street near the train station, has a nice selection of sweet delicious treats as well as Mexican street foods (nachos, sandwiches, tacos, etc) at an affordable price. Staff is friendly and helpful. Entrance is handicap accessible and there is metered street parking.“

“Beautiful caticorn cake created for my daughters 6th birthday. Delicious cake and icing beautifully decorated - just perfect for the occasion 😊“
