50 Best Bakeries near Palisades

“Stopped on a bike ride where hundreds of other riders who had ridden there as their destination. I enjoyed one of the better lobster rolls I’ve eaten in a long time! Great deserts, burgers and other food. Highly recommend this destination1“

“Amazing fresh baked goods! You can pick bagels off the converter belt coming out hot. Endless amounts of muffins, breads, rolls, bagels! The front has pastries that are just as delicious. There's a deli in the back as well! Love coming here and bringing out of town visitors as well.“

“I just took the time to walk over and show my appreciation for the most delicious cheesecake I have had the opportunity to enjoy with my familyThe love they put into what they do is such a rare thing todayAgain I can not thank them enough for being thereRuss AndrewsAndrews Clocks and Watches“

“Amazing place... fresh breads, rolls, baked goods all day everyday. Definitely worth a stop if you're anywhere near it. Also the deli dept has Boar's Head products, coupled with their own fresh bread makes for an exceptional sandwich.“

“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“

“Loves this place. Patties taste like the one back home. The Veggie patties are my favorite, love the bread so nice and soft. Staff is great and freindly. Place is small but that's ok with me and in and out. They have a refrigerator with juice. They cheese , Bun . All the nice things to consume. Makes my mouth water talk about it.“

“We used A Little Cake for our wedding cake and they truly were incredible to work with! They offered a cake tasting in person, gave us time to think and discuss, didn't rush us to make decisions at all. Their cakes are super moist, not overly sweet, and their designs are so special! We chose coconut cream and cannoli as two of the fillings and guests raved about their desserts! We can't wait to use them again for future events“

“We were craving for pastries from Chocnyc which was recommended by Yelp Top 100 Croissants. It’s kind of far from where we live but no one can stop us from eating.We were satisfied with their line up. We got their Plain Croissant, Caramelized Croissant, Pecan Sticky Bun and Savory Biscuit as first try. The portion was great with reasonable price.Our favorite was the Pecan Sticky Bunwhich was satisfying with soft and rich texture. Their croissant wasn’t our type but it’s still worth a visit.“

“I would rather swallow poison than anyone else's cappuccino. Best coffee, vibe of any cafe in Westchester. Staff is super cool and I love the music they play. I am not cool but I feel cool when I'm in there.“

“I was back in my hometown for a short trip and wanted to work remote from a cafe. I did a quick Yelp search and stumbled across Marimba Cafe - the new name caught my eye and the aesthetics and offerings here solidified my decision. I don't think I've ever come across a sit down Latin cafe here in Bergen County so to me, since moving away, it's the first of its kind. Also first of its kind to proudly offer CBD infused menu items. I believe they just opened in November! The vibes in here are immaculate. My favorite feature is the stone floor - it just transports you somewhere new! The color scheme in here is also appealing, and the Latin music made me want to dance while I took on meetings haha. Overall, really solid branding and concept. Since I was working west coast hours, I spent the whole afternoon into close here. It's a really great place to work as there were other people working remote. They have comfortable seating and outlets conveniently located along the booth. I will say though that the booth seating was just a tad too high for the table so it took some time getting used to. Also, they do play the music fairly loud (a must) in here so it can be a tad distracting if you're taking meetings and have to speak. Since I stayed here for over 5 hours, I was able to observe the sense of community Marimba has fostered - they greet customers like friends! I also saw on their Instagram that they host community events like paint nights and dance nights and support other local businesses with their La Placita Sundays. I love everything this business is about. I ordered the coquito latte hot and a pan de bono. The latte was solid and I wish the pan de bono was just a bit bigger! I would love to try more here. Congrats to the owners of Marimba, I wish the cafe tons of business and success! I definitely want to visit again when I'm back in town.“

“Oh my!! If you pass this spot up you are missing out. We ordered the cupcakes, chocolate chip cookies, and Cinnabons. The cupcakes were so soft and velvety. I was expecting had and grainy but these cupcakes are built as if you made regular ones and pulled them out the oven. My mouth watered eating them. The chocolate chip cookies were also soft and delicious. This place needs a stop when you're in the neighborhood. Even for the non vegan crowd these baked good will leave you surprised and ordering additional.“

“Despite its higher prices, I find myself coming back to this cafe. Why? TL;DR The quality, service, and ambiance are what sells me. The menu has a huge variety of drinks (coffee, hot chocolate, teas, refreshers, frappes, smoothies, cold brews, etc.). Drinks are strong and full of flavor. Nothing is watered down or overly sweet or bitter. -cold brew with sweet cream (chocolate and vanilla) - They make their sweet cream fresh on the spot and it tastes delicious! One of the best I've had. The only thing is that some baristas put way too much ice. 4/5 -hot honey rose latte - Wow, this drink surprised me! I tried it on a whim and enjoyed it. It has a light floral taste that pairs well espresso. 4/5 -oreo frappe - YUM! 5/5 -iced mocha - I would like it to be sweeter (I have a big sweet tooth). The espresso overpowered the chocolate. 3.5/5 -hot dulce de leche latte - A little disappointed with this ONLY because I didn't taste much of the dulce de leche :( It just tasted like a regular latte. 3/5 Their espresso is STRONG so if you want more sweetness ask for more pumps of flavor or milk. Onto the food...I've tried a couple of items and I would say that the prices are high for the portion size. I love that they make their food fresh but I'm not sure if I can justify the prices. Some items are worth it and some aren't. -fig open toast $10 - Mhmm this was yummy. The toast was crispy. The ricotta cheese was fluffy and paired well with the figs. The balsamic vinegar dressing drizzled on top was *chef's kiss* 5/5 -buffalo smash sandwich $10.50 - I have ordered this twice. The first time tasted better than the second time. 3.5/5 -the BP wake up breakfast sandwich w/ bacon, egg, cheese, hash brown $8.25 - The sandwich was good but it was nothing special. It's pretty small and I finished it quickly... This was around $8 and I don't think it's worth that price. 3/5 -stuffleufugus (stuffed waffle with eggs, sausage, cheese, and bacon) $10.25 - The waffle was fluffy and crispy but everything else just didn't hit for me... It was mostly egg and sausage inside. Not much bacon (which is my favorite) and cheese. I would try a more sweeter/dessert waffle next time. 3/5 -chavocado sandwich - Mehhhh. Average and not very flavorful. There was barely any chicken, bacon, or avocado... 2/5 BUT THE SERVICE? Amazing service here! The owner is very sweet and friendly. She seems to have a lot of regulars and is very personable. Staff is willing to accommodate and fix orders if it's not to your liking. They bring your order to your table if you dine in. If you order during peak rush hours (especially food), you might have to wait a bit longer (10-15 minutes) since everything is freshly made. If you want to avoid any wait times I recommend ordering online for pickup. Now for the ambiance... The cafe is brightly lit and spacious, but there isn't too much seating available. They have free wifi so you can study or work here, but it can get VERY loud and crowded. They have an open kitchen so you can hear the machines when they're making drinks. There is a "kiddie section" for younger children to play with toys. They play loud music BUT it is GREAT music. One morning they were playing some of my favorite salsa songs and another day they had on throwbacks from the early 2000s. It put me in such a good mood and made me wanna dance lol. I see this as more of a place to socialize with family and friends. BRING HEADPHONES/EARPHONES if you want to study or read. Overall this is definitely a place to check out! The biggest con is that the prices are on the higher end. Most of their drinks start at a minimum of $5 for the smallest size (12 oz) and can go up to almost $7 for the largest size (20 oz) before tax and tip. Their food ranges from $6-$13 and while I don't think the price justifies the portion sizes, you can be the judge! Sign up for their rewards program for discounts and freebies!“

“My cake was beautiful and delicious ♥️“

“Delicious cakes and treats and they taste as good as they look! My family, friends and I have been getting custom cakes from Stephanie for many years. Her work never disappoints. I just give her a picture or a concept and she nails it every time! Some of my personal favs are the tres leche, funfetti carrot and champagne cake.“

“We were in Nyack to walk around before we headed back to BK and thought we'd stop for coffee and a pastry. I was hoping for a cappuccino but the machine looked like it was out of use so I got a black coffee -- not bad. What was great was the apple tart: lots of juicy apples, delicious crème patissiere, and a laminated crust. The pastries are HUGE -- the apple slice was more than enough for both of us. They have a small selection of macarons, which we didn't try, and a lot of other pastries (no eclairs, alas). Plus it seems to be a family owned business. I would definitely go back.“

“Not only was customer service on point but from one Chef to another one baker to another. Well done Chef Maria Caputo. Even Hannah was great and knowledgeable. Even the Tik-ToK cookies we over the top. Big smile here! Yum Yum was well worth the visit!“

“Love everything about this place, from the vibe to the staff to the coffee. The vegan croissant was delicious and the super friendly staff, Ashley and Amy, made an iced latte version of the seasonal amaretto cold brew drink for me and my friend. Honestly I can’t rate the service high enough, definitely recommend checking it out!“

“I highly recommend Booskerdoo! Not only is the product they sell of superior quality, but the customer service and the care with which they manage the coffee shop makes it truly feel like home! The staff is AWESOME!Kid-friendliness: The staff is amazing with kids! They treat them as the customers they truly are!“

“Excellent place!!! Everything is top- notch!!! Highly recommended!“

“My friends and I were in the area and we were craving coffee in the morning. We decided to stop by here for coffee - they have their regular menu but also a spring menu (which included ube matcha, ube espresso latte, strawberry matcha latte and more). They also have baked goods which all looked so good. The place itself is also super aesthetic with plenty of seating inside and some seats outside. My staff was super friendly in the front and at times there was a line but it moved very quickly. We all decided to get a chocolate croissant with was yummy. I decided to get the ube espresso lattee, which was pretty good - the ube syrup was on the sweeter side so the drink was sweeter than I would have liked it but it was good overall. The flavor was good as well. We were all in agreement that the drinks were def on the sweeter side so if this is something that you don't like then maybe ask for less sugar. Overall - cute cafe, highly recommend checking this place out!!“

“Adorable, delicious and friendly! Ordered their out-of-this-world chocolate chunk cookies for a birthday party and they were a huge hit! Staff is great-- Jolanta in particular has such a wonderful, can-do attitude and is always smiling and welcoming customers by name.This place is a winner!“

“I thought it was wonderful that instead of selling me drinks and walking away the owner asked what my large order was for. He arranged for us to have them delivered instead. They were there and fresh. Everyone loved them.I really appreciate that.“

“Hello America, I'm back.Glaubers, what a store... An Erev Shabbos treat. I had a little problem though.I ordered a pan of cholent and a pan of kugel, and it was so heavy that it caused some back pain, and I havent been able to walk since Friday. IT'S NOW TUESDAY!To the owner of Glauber's, as compensation, I think it would only be fair to settle for free Gefilte fish for life.Please reach out promptly. Thank you.“

“This kind of donut is not the same thing you are getting at DD or Krispy Kreme. It is a rice batter and has a really unique and tasty flavor. The topping are also very good too and add a lot. However, this location has sales that help support the local school systems and I really appreciate their community involvement. Bravo!“

“BEST coffee in Irvington!!! I'm there often for large orders to bring to work and Mike and Brittany are so patient, kind, and deeply care for their community. We always have such great conversation while they make my oat latte. So much love is put into what they do-- amazing coffee, incredible pastries, and do NOT sleep on that egg sandwich.“

“"I recently had the pleasure of visiting Kriotas Bakery in Teaneck, NJ, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! The cake I ordered was not only delicious but also incredibly fresh, leaving me wanting more.The bakery's attention to detail is truly commendable. Every bite was a burst of flavor, and the texture was perfectly moist. It's evident that they use high-quality ingredients and put great care into their baking process.In addition to the amazing cake, the service at Kriotas Bakery was exceptional. The staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They took the time to understand my preferences and helped me choose the perfect cake for my occasion.I highly recommend Kriotas Bakery to anyone looking for a delightful and delectable cake experience. Whether it's a special celebration or just a craving for something sweet, you won't be disappointed. I can't wait to visit again and try more of their mouthwatering creations!Thank you, Kriotas Bakery, for providing such a memorable and enjoyable culinary experience."THE BEST GLUTEN FREE CAKE!!!!“

“Friendly staff and great service. Delicious apple cranberry scone. Perfectly crisp on outside with soft inside. Not too crumbly. Great paired with matcha latte or coffee while waiting on the train. In addition to a wide variety of bakery, they also had salads, and a few sandwiches.“

“The Omni Caffe in Scardale offers an amazing coffee experience with the Essse Caffe brand. The staff were very friendly and attentive to each customer. Each cup was crafted to perfection. Their Tiramisu is one of the best around. Despite the limited seating of 4 tables and 3 high stools, their customers were walking in and out all morning. We will definitely become frequent customers.Parking: Street parking free on Sunday.“

“We ordered a cake and cookies for my daughter’s first birthday which was an Alice in “Onderland” theme. The cake and cookies were absolutely incredible! First of all, the presentation was amazing, the cake was perfect, just like the Disney movie. One of our little guests walked up to it and said “wow! that looks like a cartoon!”. The cannoli filling was one of the best I’ve had. The cookies were beautiful, I almost didn’t want to eat them but they were delicious. I will definitely be a returning customer and will recommend this bakery to anyone looking to have an event with delicious treats!“

“I love this little Gem in town. I absolutely love this backery there isn't a thing I've tried that was not delicious. The chocolate cake was so moist and rich. And the Lemon coffee cake was amazing. The cookies are soft and fresh EVERY single time I've ordered them. But good luck scoring some they are so good they usually sell out early. This is definitely a must try.“

“Amazing coffee, treats - and staff! ❤️“

“THE BEST. I use lulus for everything, but I’m specifically writing this review about my wedding cake, which was out of this world. Every single one of my guests said it was the best cake they’ve ever had in their entire lives. Taste was 10 out of 10 it’s rare you get a place that is capable of doing exquisite decoration, but also not compromising the deliciousness of the cake because you can’t have a nice looking cake that tastes terrible and vice versa. Lulu did not fail to deliver. It was a cake out of a magazine. Anybody in the Westchester area probably knows that this is the best and so this is just another review to say yes yes they are the best. I use them for every birthday every every event, and I will continue to do so. Absolutely love them.“

“The official cake lady is officially our go to bakery!! Kim did our sons cake for his superhero party this weekend and WOW so cool and creative even included lights (iron man themed) !!! The cake was delicious too!!! She’s done a couple of cakes for us already and everyone raves about it!! She was so easy to work with and so kind!! She even texted me links from Amazon for a cake topper. It was a pleasure Kim to work with you and your staff!! Thank you!! People are still talking about your cake!! ;) Oriana from Liam’s superhero party!“

“Let me start with I am not one to write reviews however this one is worth the occasion. It was an absolute pleasure working with Wildly Cakes to get a cake for my bridal shower. We had a traveling themed bridal shower and Wildly Cakes was able to make this beautiful world map on the side. But it doesn’t just end there the cake itself tasted delicious. We got a vanilla cake with cookie butter filling and all my guests ranted and raved on how good it was. We actually have our wedding cake being made by them too and we cannot wait to see and taste it especially after this great first impression.“

“I've been a loyal customer for years and while I always commend the food, I'd like to send a shoutout to the hardworking ladies working at the front!I visited earlier this morning and it was still pretty busy. But the employees made sure to keep the display pastries fully stocked ad neatly arranged. And there were so many rude customers but the employees handled them with grace and hospitality. That shows true professionalism and I hope these ladies know that their earnest work is much appreciated!As for the food, I'm happy to say their kouign amann and tomato/eggplant galette are still divine! Their seasonal pastries are stunning, gorgeous, and a real treat to look at, and I love coming back to see their monthly offerings! But I'd have to say that the real champion of this visit were the classy employees! Keep up the great work!“

“Highly recommend, delivered cake on point for our event! Tasted so good, and staff was very easy to work with! Thank you!“

“No offense to the Colombian empanadas, but I much prefer the Argentinian empanada. Colombian empanadas are smaller and fried whilst Argentinian empanadas are larger and baked. That being said I love the empanadas at Los Andes are delicious. They have a good variety of other dishes as well.The establishment is tight so a visit with a group larger than 3 is not recommended. What i do recommend is taking a box of empanadas to go. They taste even better warmed up.Besides the empanada I had the fully loaded Chilean hot dog. The hot dog was a bit thin, but the combinations atop the hot dog were delicious. Also, they make a great cup of coffee.I make a trip to Los Andes every year for the Halloween parade with a sporadic viskt when I get a craving. FYI...I leave a bit ovee 50 miles away.Wheelchair accessibility: None“

“This place is beyond especially if you are gluten free. I really wish more places had this quality of gluten free goods as well as such great options. There are also so many sugar free options as well (keto) which is excellent. My husband is not gluten free nor super sugar conscious and also loves everything from here!A few things that would make this place better to consider: being closed Sunday and Monday is tough if that was mid week it would make my purchases probably 2x in frequency, can you sell mini sized cookies or cookies in 12 packs? Thats definitely one of the best items I would buy that weekly.“

“A quaint and quiet bakery with tons of delectable treats from cookies, scones, pastries, to empanadas, sanwiches, burgers, salad and even cake! I was debating between 4 and 5 stars, but decided on 5 stars because of the hospitality and friendliness of the staff members. I wanted to show them love, and also keep this homey, lovable cafe around town. Nothing too crazy, but feels right at home!“

“I came here on a Sunday afternoon to work. It's a small place, so there are not many tables, but they have WiFi and outlets. The cafe is covered in real plants. The servers were kind and friendly and you could tell the barista was passionate about the art of coffee. The food and drinks were great: * Matcha Yuzu - 10/10 - The matcha flavor is not strong and earthy, so it's perfect for non matcha lovers. The yuzu syrup adds a nice brightness of flavor, and the addition of the sparkling water makes the drink extra refreshing. I saw the barista hand whip the matcha too. * Cortado - 8/10 - I'm not a coffee drinker, so take this review with a grain of salt. This drink is pretty strong since it's equal parts espresso and milk, but I liked the flavor of the beans. * Chocolate Croissant - 8.5/10 - The pastry was buttery, flakey and light. I wish there was a bit more chocolate tho because only 1/3 of the bites had chocolate. Overall, I would definitely come again for the vibes and food. I want to try their hot food options next time.“

“My sister surprised us with Patty’s Pops for our engagement party in February 2020 so when we got married in August 2021 we had to have these treats for our guests. All the desserts were beautiful and delicious and elevated our wedding to the next level.“

“I traveled 20 minutes to go to this place and I have mixed emotions, many people describe them as the best cookies but for me they are overpriced, they have good flavor and a reasonable size but not enough to pay a little more than $4 per unit. On this visit I bought a box with 6 units to try them all.“

“Tous Les Jours in Bergenfield has quickly become one of my favorite coffee shops. It is clean and well lit. The pastries are fantastic (I especially like their rolls and their cream milk bread).The coffee is high quality. I’ve enjoyed every drink I’ve gotten there. The staff is kind and accommodating.10/10 I would recommend this coffee shop- either as a stop to pick up your coffee to go or a place to enjoy a snack!“

“Delicious pastry, reasonable prices, wonderfully helpful staff. They have assorted Italian style cookies, cakes, and a small variety of other pastry, such as donuts and honey buns. I highly recommend their coffee cake. It is wildly delicious, roughly $16.00, and very addictive if you are not careful ?. 01/2024“

“What an amazing place! Friendly and nice location. Their cookies and Spanakopita are fresh and taste straight out of the oven. Soft, fresh and full of flavor! After becoming extremely sick and hospitalized early this year from visiting Zai’s Dessertery in Bergenfield and forcing myself to eat disgusting, stone hard, and sugar packed desserts, due to not being able to get my money back from the cashier, Athens Bakery has been a great find for sure. Thank you Athens Bakery for being great to your customers!“

“I called keremo cakes with a last minute request to make a custom cake for my wife’s birthday. They had the cake ready in one day and we couldn’t be happier. I sent them a picture of what I was looking for and they made it even better than the picture!“

“I ordered a cannoli cake for my father’s 90th birthday. I called, they answered, guided me as to what I would need based on the event and number of people, charged a very fair price and done! The cake was ready on time and more importantly DELICIOUS! I highly recommend them.“

“Cupcakes are $2 on Tuesdays try one and you will be addicted I'm a board member with United tenants, 12 minutes before the shop closed I called I needed a dozen cupcakes the owner and the staff accommodated me without a problem please support this business and closing time is at 6:00 p.m. ?♥️“

“I will definitely come back and edit this review if I visit again and have a different experience.The baked goods purchased were enjoyed by my family and they had a decent selection for a smaller bakery.The atmosphere however was cold and the staff was not friendly at all. There were some preteen girls hanging out at the tables. The person helping me was more interested in making faces about every question I asked (over my shoulder with the girls) than helping me. It was a very weird experience. Not what I’m used to in present day diverse Pelham. Providing a safe space is cool but it should not become a mean girl experience towards customers. Thnx“

“We love the unique design of the bakery and the beautiful flowers on the window. My daughter always wants to takes pictures out front. The cake pops are my son’s favorite and mine are the macaroons. Their cupcakes and cakes are beautiful and always leave everyone happy! Denise, the owner is amazing and so hard working! We love this bakery on Main Street!“
