This is the best Café in Hoboken to have meetings and it offers a huge selection of some of the most delicious foods and drinks as well as a yogurt bar. It's the best overall coffee/Café location in Hoboken.

I used to like this place when it first opened but looks like a lot has changed. The staff was rude and almost gave me an old slice of pie that was just for display, I asked her to give me another one from the fresh one and said it’s the same thing ( well… I know it’s the same thing, it’s just that one is fresh and the other has been hanging out all day!!)The prices are also way too high for the quality you’re getting, I got a Greek cheese pie which they shouldn’t call cheese at all cause it had 99% dough and 1% of cheese (see pictures) there was so much dough in it that the inside was raw & not even baked.

Coffee is OK. Music is too loud that you can't have an easy conversation. The guy who works there could be nicer when he interacts with customers.

1st time here. Super friendly staff. Food was really good. Had the build your own bowl. Lemon chicken, brown rice, eggplant, and hummus. Great bang for your buck too! Def going back.

Food (5/5): Got the orange cake and it was the right amount of sweet and really decadent and moist! Venue (5/5): Beautifully spaced and decorated venue with plenty of seating space. Service (5/5): Very helpful and friendly service that answered questions and provided important details.

I have decided to edit this review from 1 to 3 stars :I understand how hard it can be to work in retail, I just hope employees have more compassion towards their co-workers.I had a bad experience this time, I hope I’ll get a better one next.Please have some respect for the elderly, please use kinder words.Thank you.

Dave, who served our coffee, was really awesome. He is very accommodating and hospitable, the ambience is really relaxing compared to the many surrounding coffee stores and the music is not blaring loud so you can work comfortably. the dessert options are vast and they even have food options if you get hungry. prices are very reasonable.

We used to love coming here. Today we came in and we were told they don't have any menus, to just pick what we wanted from their limited selection. We did this and I proceeded to ask if they still did omelets. The answer was yes, but they didn't have a menu so to just tell them what to make. I asked for a 3 ingredient egg white omelette. What I received was a regular omelette with one of the three ingredients I asked for. The rest of the omelette is made up of other ingredients I didn't ask for, including some citrus dressing on the omelette which was really not good. The heated up food we ordered was served at room temperature, not even close to being hot. My iced coffee was fine, but my husband's frappe was terrible (mind you, we used to come here just for the frappes!). On top of the food being subpar, we also struggled to find a table, as the vast majority of them were dirty. My daughter required a high chair which I also had to sanitize because it was covered in grease and food. Lastly we had $35 in rewards from the GFG loyalty program which apparently they no longer honor. I'm guessing this place changed owners because everything has just gone completely downhill. We won't be coming back.

Always a hit! Haven't been here in some time but I love the coffee, where I found it was just " ok" before. It's mild but rich and the food is always so good. I tried the egg and avocado toast with feta and it was perfect. I would go back for sure. Kudos to the pretty blonde girl today!
I wound up only ordering a coffee on my visit to GFG Bakery Cafe, which I can say was rich and robust. I was also impressed by their selection of lunch and breakfast items, offering much more than simple pastries. From avocado toast to Greek yogurt parfaits to sandwiches, there was really something for everyone. I will need to go back to see what I missed!

This place was so different when it first opened (you can even tell from the management's Yelp responses that they cared) but then something went south badly. I remember another stale food experience from 2019 after which I decided not to give them a second chance. But I did recently, only bc I missed spanakopita. How can a so-called Greek establishment make spanakopita this lifeless is beyond me. Not even heating saved its poor soul. And what happened to the baklavas, may be they are out of a can too -like GFG's lifeless stuffed grape leaves are. You can only sell this food to people who do not know what a decent spanakopita, feta cheese borek, baklava or stuffed grape leaves taste like (in reality). The owners are so out of it that they even picked the worst dolma in the entire canned dolma market -all rice (which was also dry) and no onions or spices. I'm still grieving every single dollar I spent here 10 days ago, should have never given them a second chance.

This place is legit amazing. Plenty of space, even during covid to sit apart and their bakery selection is top notch. I tired a bunch of their pies and pastries and I honestly loved them all, even the basic cheese pastry. Definitely coming back next time!

We have been staying in Hoboken for a month visiting family and this place is our go to breakfast spot everyday for the kids. The staff is incredibly helpful. They treat us like we’re eating in our home. David is wonderful and goes above and beyond for every customer. Him and the staff make it a pleasure and a treat to come here everyday. Thank you for making us feel like we’re having meals at our home.
