We walked into this shop and ordered a pastry.

He said "no plastic" - we ate it with our hands - we were not near our home - I understand no plastic but why he didn't have alternative cutlery was beyond comprehension. He was also quite rude in the way he spoke. We were excited to see an of out of the way bakery but with this person's attitude, we will be going to the other cafes in Princeton.

Really enjoyed this place for a Saturday morning breakfast. Despite being extremely busy, we were…read moreable to get seating inside and the team kept the line moving. Coffee was great - had a hot latte which was very sold. The breakfast sandwich on English muffin was very good too. Of course, they've got lots of little pies and other desserts. The Dinky cake donut creation we ordered was delicious, but you'll need to be a fan of cream cheese to enjoy the filling. It was lively when we were there and is obviously a local favorite. The seating is minimal inside, but has some tables for small and large groups (just not many). We'll definitely come back in the future.

I recently tried LiLLiPiES Bakery for lunch over the weekend. I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese and…read morean iced mocha. The bacon, egg and cheese was quite yummy and I loved how they have English muffins made in house. The everything English muffin was unique and just right. The iced mocha was solid and did the job, but didn't stand out to me. For how busy it was, my food and drink came out relatively quick. I took my order on the go, but they do have a bit of seating as well. My only complaint about this place is that they are quite pricy. Besides that, I do look forward to trying some of their pastries in the future.

Veggie sandwich was flavorless - no condiments or spread on the bread - just plain bread stuffed…read morewith zucchini and cheese. Side of fries was also nothing special . We just tasted it and skipped the rest . Open face Mediterranean sandwich was a tad better. Bread was well toasted and veggie filling n balsamic added some flavor n texture . The side chickpea salad was not bad . Seemed to have good walk in traffic but everybody had some delays or some kind of issue with the food . Maybe it was a bad day for the staff . Ambience was bright and nice with additional outdoor seating . Service was slow and not very hygienic. When we shared feedback about the missing veggies in the veggie sandwich , the hostess was understanding and apologized. Offered a complimentary dessert which we refused as I did not find the baked good appetizing ( given the flies that we noticed ) There is street parking and few spots at the back of the building Overall not a place I would return. We left the place a bit hungry .

I love the nature ambience with lots of trees and greenery. Should you come here? I recommend going early as the unique pastries do fly off their shelves by late morning.

After 20 min of waiting and being told it's coming, they then come and ask what order we were…read morewaiting for. Then, you would think that after that, they would expedite getting the order out but instead, they explain that the kitchen is swamped and they'll get to it soon without a definitive, 'hey, I'll get the kitchen to get it out now'.

Embellishment thy name is Princeton. Why call a business that sells baked goods a bakery when what…read morewe really need is a new school "bread boutique." No self-respecting connoisseur or influencer worth their curated sea salt would stand for anything less than hand-crafted loaves touched by the Almighty. Well, I stand corrected. Their baguettes and Zucchini bread are outstanding and worthy of any hosanna I could summon. If your going to engage in marketing grandiosity it's nice to know Princeton's Bread Boutique delivers. It's easy to be cynical but what they don't sell here are eye rolls. Five very easy stars.

After my first bite of the pistachio-crusted croissant here, I swallowed and pronounced, "People…read moreneed to know about this place." We'd turned in here after feeling discouraged by the long lines at another nearby bakery. Here, it was sunny, quiet, and redolent of that heady bread aroma. Another personally good sign was seeing several empty trays in the windows. When a bakery 'sells out' of stuff, I feel like I've uncovered a hot spot. Here's where I need to make a confession: I like croissants a little more than a normal human being should. Really, I'm a croissant addict. So we already knew I'd like these. But ooh la la, these were especially fine. One had rough chunks of pistachio, a subtle, sticky glaze, and - sweet Jesus - pistachio cream on the inside. When my husband saw the pecan pie croissant, we knew I was done for. Behind the counter, there's a large selection of bread loaves, along with a small savory menu. Along the side of the bakery, there's also a refrigerated area with drinks and cold sandwiches. There are a few tables and seats inside, available first come first served.

We were looking for a quick bite after visiting the beautiful Princeton Art Museum, and we found a…read moregreat place! At first, walking in gave me a wave of nostalgia because it reminded me of the Olives I used to visit in New York City. While it's not the same restaurant, this one absolutely stands on its own. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich, and my husband had a kale salad loaded with vegetables and all kinds of good things like pecans, carrots, red cabbage, chick peas and more...he loved it. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and you could tell the quality of the ingredients was a priority. The pricing was also very reasonable, especially for how good the food was. We took our meals to go and walked down the street to a picnic table, which made for a perfect, relaxed lunch in Princeton. Great food, great value, and a spot I'd happily return to. There were also some really good desserts to pick from as well, but I passed them up. Pro tip... there can be a line to order your food during busy times of the day.
