Super easy , quick and tasty pastries! Not expensive at all with most things being around $2-4! I have the spinach & cheese croissant which was very tasty! Service Dine in Meal type Breakfast Price per person $1–10 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
It’s unfortunate that some of their pastries aren’t sold fresh and the coffee isn’t good, but I like how clean and quiet the cafe is. I do recommend trying their madeleines as they’re consistently good. Financier is very sweet so couple it with a coffee, makes for a tasty chewy snack. I did notice the quality of their croissants has gone down as it used to be good, but now it’s always a bit dry/stale. Don’t get Cappuccino too much milk and foam.
The pie and the breads are really good here. I love getting the focaccia bread and baguettes. The staff is very friendly and can answer all of your stupid bakery questions! Also check out the upstair! Def coming back! Check out the upstairs room!!
The coffee wasn’t great. It was not really warm. The croissant was good. Limited seating area

Staff were friendly here and the shop was cute. Their sour dough was chewy, and u can taste the nice wheat smell. Their coffee cake was kinda sticky on the top with candied pecan, soft and crumbling under. I’m not a fan but still good when u want a simple sweet treat. The petit kouign I got was raspberry flavor. It was a little bit soggy at the outside layer but still tasted good! Their sour dough is a classic. Not the best best but good to visit and take one home when u r around.
Super nice place and super delicious. If you are looking for place to work, read a book or meeting you friend for coffee this is your place. This place is nice, you have upper floor with tables and sofas. Also everything is super delicious the bakery and the menu for lunch soup and sandwiches. There are also a lot of vegan lunch options. And the nicest part you have french music in the background. You don't want to miss this place.

A cute bakery in the neighborhood. They sell variety of items like bread, croissants, puffs, pastries, macarons, small sandwiches, hot and cold beverages. All items are named French, sometimes hard to tell the item from the name. I loved the chouquettes and madeleines. Soft and delicious. The lemonade was good too. They have a sitting area on the second floor, but it closes earlier than the store. Currently food consumption is not allowed at the bakery (1st floor). But I liked the esthetic of the store, very modern look. There only paid street parking around the store, if you are not local, prepare to drive around to find a parking spot.

It’s just… okay. Choc o pain is not fresh. Pastries are often stale and the selection of items is incredibly inconsistent. You never know if the place is going to be overflowing with fresh items, or if it’s going to be 85% of an empty display. The best items on the menu are the financiers. The only croissants that are good are the ham and cheese ones. Skip the rest. Service Take out Meal type Breakfast Price per person $1–10 Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes Croissant Jambon Emmental
Staff is friendly, the space is cute and the vibes are nice. WiFi is okay and prices seem reasonable for Hoboken? The vanilla chai latte I got was pretty good but the reason I’m taking a star off is that the baked goods are sub-par in my opinion. My croissant was too chewy and had almost a bread like texture.

I was looking forward to trying this place, as I had heard rave reviews about their exceptional pastries and coffee. However, the chocolate croissants fell a bit short of my expectations as they were a bit stale. Additionally, the cappuccino was overly milky and foamy, which detracted from the coffee's taste and richness
