“I have yet to have a cookie from here that I did not like! I have many favorites including triple chocolate, crumb cake, brookie, and chocolate covered banana, but they are always coming up with new & unique yummy flavors so that could change! I love buying a dozen at once and freezing most of them so I can enjoy them anytime; I’ve kept them as long as a year and they are still delicious.“

“I am super impressed with this bakery! If I could give more stars, I would!! Our granddaughter loves macarons so I had the thought of ordering them for her birthday. I turned to google to find a company that would ship them. I was a little behind the game and ordered them on Monday, late afternoon, for a Friday delivery. I wasn't holding out too much hope that they'd arrive on that day since they were coming from NJ and being shipped to WI but I placed the order anyway with the requested date. But guess what! They arrived on the exact date! Not only that, but they were personalized with Happy Birthday and even her name on some of them! Additionally, they included a handwritten note with my message on it instead of something that was just printed off. They really went over and above my expectations! My granddaughter said each of the flavors were so delicious! I will definitely be ordering from them again in the future. What a wonderful company! (oh! and a side note, out of the companies I found that would ship - Izzy's was the most affordable! BONUS!!!)“

“Ate there on their covered patio area. Just coffee and a sweet treat. Got some bread and cookies to bring home. Never disappoints.“

“This place is officially my go to local bakery! Victoria and her mom Laurence have been nothing but kind and helpful each time I’ve went in. My friends and family raved about the triple chocolate cake i picked up for my sisters birthday and my best friend and i enjoy a quiet breakfast and cafe on the weekends! The decor is so welcoming and bright. It’s a great place to sit, and relax! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious pastries and French imports. It’s a piece of home for my mom, as well! 🇫🇷🥖🥐🥮🧁🎂💕“

“Everything delicious: Best Italian sub sandwich; eggplant parmigiana. Going years. No exaggeration“

“Received the most amazing surprise birthday cake from SJ! It was as delicious as it was beautiful! This is our third time ordering from SJ, and each time it has been better than the last! I cannot recommend using them for any baked needs you have! We have gotten the chocolate cake with Oreo filling twice and there’s never any cake left! Everyone loves it! Thank you so so much SJ for helping make my birthday magical! See comments for pic of the cake ☺️“

“This is my go to Colombian bakery. I have been a loyal customer since 2012.
Their menu is limited if you are planning to dine in, however, it is quite reliable and consistent. It is pure comfort food.

If you are not that adventurous, I highly recommend their empanadas de carne (beef and potatoes) and pan de bono (cheese bread). Those are usually the favorites of any picky eaters that join us 😁“

“Dear Able Baker I heart you , staff always super friendly, best cookies I’ve ever had ❤️🤗“

“We where looking for a place to make my son’s perfect Mickey Mouse cake and when I Found Roxanna cakes on instagram and saw her work I knew I found the right place my son couldn’t stop looking at his cake he was touching it everyone loved the cake it was perfection and it tasted so good I provided a picture of what I wanted and definitely received exactly what I asked for.“

“From one business owner to another, I couldn't be more happy for the lovely treats James and Maria Carozza at Cookie Jar delivered to me as a gift! This speaks to the generosity and thoughtfulness of Cookie Jar as a whole, and I only wish for this business's continued success!“

“Delicious and fresh food- full of flavor, lots of veggie options, great baked goods.“

“Beautiful array of pastries“

“Absolutely the best bagel there is. Each one no matter the flavor is a delight. And their food that they put on the bagel is delicious. Get there before 3;30 PM if you want sliced cheese because they close the slicer at 3;30. I know if I get there at 3;32 PM the slicer is off. So I get tuna fish instead and it’s about as good as it gets. The staff is friendly and do a good job. What a place!“

“I simply LOVE this place. It not only has the best vegan sandwiches and desserts, the hospitality is amazing. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. The only thing bad is that they are 45 minutes from me. I wish there was one closer to where I live. I would be going more often. I'm hoping one day they will become a franchise. I would definitely want to open a How Delish! ❤️“

“I ordered a graduation cake online. When I picked it up and saw it, it was so beautiful. It was the talk of the party! It was not like a typical dry bakery cake. It was so moist and delicious! It was ALL chocolate. I would highly recommend splurge bakery for your customized cake needs!“

“Great food. So far the best colombian food I ate in NJ.“

“Super busy on a Tuesday night. It was my first time inside and it was very confusing as to where to go and how to order- no one greeted us or anything which is a little odd. We figured it out and enjoyed our cookies. There was a pretty long wait“

“amazing staff and cake always delicious guys don't hesitate to buy your cake here they have lots of different tastes,color,designs and they have lots of other things like party rental things. 😀 I order my bb girl 1st second and 3rd birthday cake including my birthday cake and I cannot never get enough. great jobs you guys.“

“Wish had menu or weekly display of what available during week or daily“

“Excelente servicio y delicioso pan y los postres, recomendado 100 por 100 el mejor pan de beyonne fresco y caliente.“

“I’ve ordered the Nothing Bundt Cakes for workplace celebrations since my staff and I love them. We usually order in lemon raspberry and chocolate chip—both offered in gluten-free—and they are absolutely amazing! I usually eat gluten-free, and these have become my go-to. Even though my staff isn’t gluten-free, they absolutely love them and can’t even tell the difference. We also get them delivered to our workplace, which is a convenient option. They’re incredibly moist, flavorful, and always a huge hit every single time!“

“My son’s Lego Birthday Cake was a home run. The cake was delicious and definitely fresh. The cake was moist and the filling was smooth. All of the guests commented how great the cake tasted. The design of the cake exceeded our expectations. Thank You, We Bake Fresh for making my son’s birthday extra special. We will be recommending you to our friends and family.“

“When you walk into this bakery, you honestly want one of everything. The delicious smell of butter and sugar makes your mouth water. I've been a client of this since they first opened. And I don't go anywhere else for Baked Goods other than one of their sister stores, either the Cookie Jar or Piece of Cake.“

“Best Italian bread around and very reasonably priced in my opinion. Italian pastries are delicious also. Even if you don't live too close by there, it is worth a trip every once in awhile to get really good bread especially for Sunday gravy/sauce. They are open many hours so it's very convenient.“

“5 star for Philly Fluff alone! Aside from that, the staff was so friendly and helped me find just the right dessert for my T1D husband. KETO CHEESECAKE. It too was a big hit and had NO EFFECT on his sugar level. It is good to know that we can keep a fresh baked dessert on hand to keep a T1D satisfied! Thank you Natale's!“

“I initially stopped by to pick up a cupcake for my boyfriend’s birthday, but my first interaction wasn’t the best and I almost left without making a purchase. As I was heading out, Edo overheard what happened and came out to personally make things right.

I’m so glad he did. Edo was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuine, we ended up having a great conversation, and he went above and beyond by gifting my boyfriend four cupcakes for his birthday. It truly made his day special.

His level of care and commitment to his customers really stood out. You can tell he’s community-driven and takes pride in his business. Because of him, I will absolutely be coming back and continuing to support this shop.“

“Todo absolutamente todo, la mejor!“

“Excellent bakery.I think the best!“

“oh my they are fabulous. I can't wait for them to come further south“

“Best croissants in New York area. The chocolate croissant is to die for. Better than any in NYC. EJH“
