I definitely understand the hype--this place deserves it! The bakery has a cute brick interior with a small amount of outdoor seating, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the baked goods. I tried the salted maple latte, which was just alright, but the real star of the show was the ham and cheese croissant! The salty ham and cheese paired perfectly with the flaky, buttery croissant. It's easy to see why they sell out so quickly. If you're craving a sweet treat--or just want to try their baked goods--make sure to come early! You can truly tell that everything is baked with passion and lots of love. Definitely worth the visit! read more

Stopped in to try the spring menu and ordered the raspberry lavender iced tea. Unfortunately, I couldn't really taste either the raspberry or the lavender, and it wasn't very sweet. It was okay, but I was hoping for more flavor. The pastry, however, was phenomenal! I had the blueberry cheesecake pastry, and it was absolutely delicious, packed with flavor and beautifully presented. I'll definitely be back to try more off the menu! read more

I was across the street at the little plant shop and I noticed a bunch of people walking around with cute pink boxes and a line at the corner so curiosity got the best of me and we walked over and found this beautiful bake shop. They have the most amazing ginormous Donut display so we just had to get one. We got a vanilla filled doughnut that was amazing and doughy and just everything you expected from it and after looking at their menu, they have really cool coffee selections and sourdough breakfast sandwich sandwiches so I can't wait to come back. read more

Black Magic Bakehouse - Almond croissant - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ridgewood, New Jersey

Place had seating outside as well as inside. Didn't see a parking lot. The service was great, very friendly staff. I appreciate that they had in display their bake goods so you at least know how the food looks. Had the strawberry burnt honey almond scone which was delicious! Also had a BEC pastry and it was good, would like it better if there was more bacon. The iced latte with brown sugar syrup was ok it wasn't sweet at all which made me think that they forgot to add the brown sugar syrup. We also had a raspberry tea and it was not sweet at all so if you like raspberry tea without sweetness this is for you. The bright side there's sugar and cinnamon to help yourself. The ambiance was like cool dark vibes which made it unique and I also loved the decor. Price overall for the two pastries and two drinks was about $24. Keep in mind if you use a credit card there is a 3% surcharge. read more

I downed an ENTIRE cream-filled doughnut. Came to know of this place through a Yelp friend and, enchanted by the name, I started following them on social and always kept in mind to go visit when I could. I don't live close by to it, so it takes some planning. They're known for their sourdough donuts so I had to have one, even though I'm lactose intolerant. Ordered the orange-pistachio cream doughnut on Ohhh my yumness -- it was SO good. Not really sweet/ definitely not overly sweet, which is so elegant. Not everyone gets the sugar balance on point but I'm a huge fan of their flavor balance. Could really taste the orange OR pistachio, maybe a hint of the pistachio, but no complaints at all. Every bite was really very enjoyable What WERE super duper sweet though were the staff :). Also no complaints there :) The coffee was also really good, too! You know how sometimes a bakery can be really good at some items but their beverages leave much to be desired? Not the case here. Space is cute and small but not small? There is a small dining room in the back. The decor is also "just right" whimsical. read more

Officially my new favorite go to bakery and coffee spot! Located in Ridgewood closer to the train station I find parking on this side of town is always fed easier. Inside is well decorated with ample tables and indoor seating should you choose to stay. Definitely more of a layout for ordering to go. I ended up ordering almost one of everything from their menu. Their matcha with strawberry jam is a must try as it is both delicious and refreshing and not too sweet at all. I love their oversized cinnies! Delicious and so quickly eaten it did not make a photo. Everything truly is made with love and clean ingredients here and you are able to taste the difference. Service is friendly and efficient. When I went on a Saturday afternoon it was busy but the line moves very quick. read more

I was at my family's house when they told me that they had discovered a new pastry shop, Black Magic Bakehouse, a place that had actually been on my list to try. They stated that they had leftover donuts from the day before and asked if I had wanted to try them. While my sweet tooth was not typically attracted to that type of dessert, I knew that Black Magic was unique and worth the sample. The bakery had an already intriguing list of pastries on offer (various flavors of cinnamon rolls, cookies, and more), but they also produced daily specials for a fun change of pace. All of their donuts were made with sourdough brioche, which allowed them to be airy and fluffy. The Chocolate Coconut variety had a chocolate base and was topped with a dark chocolate ganache and toasted coconut. Despite all of the decadent ingredients, it managed to be light and not overly sweet. The Strawberry Fruit Tart, on the other hand, was super sweet. It was stuffed with vanilla pastry cream and packed with seasonal berries. Lastly, there was a Lavender Glaze one that I felt was the most balanced and natural. They were all very tasty, but I would probably try some of their other treats next time, just out of personal preference. read more

On a rainy Sunday morning this was such a pleasant sweet treat! The coffee here was just average. I ordered a vanilla oatmilk latte and at 1pm it was a tad bitter but the pistachio filled donut was the star of the show. My son had a chocolate chip cookie that he devoured in a few seconds. My only other complaint is that the garbage cans were overflowing. They must have had a morning rush but when we arrived there was enough of a break to address the lobby garbage cans being filled read more

Black Magic Bakehouse - Pistachio Filled Sourdough donut - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ridgewood, New Jersey

This was my second time visiting and I got to say this is a great little gem on the west side. It has plenty of street parking and the lines aren't bad during the week. They're known for a funky rotating specials menu, danishes and sweet and savory combos staple items. I had the coconut cream cruffin and the mocha latte- everything was very delicious. My only feedback is the coffee menu seems a little limited and I do think the prices are little high for a latte and muffin - it was $15 before tip. It doesn't seem realistic for a regular person to make this an everyday stop but weekly/bi-weekly could be done! read more

Yummmm! I stopped in one afternoon in search of the double chocolate muffin (pictured). I keep seeing it on their Instagram - it was delectable!

If you haven't been to Black Magic Bakehouse, I don't know what you're waiting for. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The shop itself has a really cool vibe, with a great seating area in the back. The baked goods are next level. Don't come here looking for a run of the mill plain doughnut. The flavors here are exciting and interesting. Think flavors like pandan, cardamom, passion fruit. They also do a lot with laminated dough, and it's just as good as the doughnuts. Also, don't sleep on the savory items. They usually have a savory scone and some croissants. They make killer sandwiches too, on housemade focaccia. The Loxwich is a favorite. Do yourself a favor though, and get here early. Items do sell out, so if you want a full selection then get there before 11am. This is easily one of the best bakeries in the state. read more

3% credit card fee Took the trip all the way to Ridgewood primarily to try this place. I got there at 11:30 on a Friday. Too late! Two of the things I wanted to try were sold out already (cardamom bun and focaccia) and one of the items I bought sold out right after I ordered. I tried the seasonal bun, which is carrot cake, for $8.50. It was okay. I had the French onion scone as a savory item. Very good! The best thing was the doobie swirlie!!! Great donut. Nothing was too sweet! The woman who took my order was very friendly. Mostly women working behind the counter! They have seating in the back. It's a cute area. I was lucky that it was essentially empty when I got my order. I sat for a bit in a comfy armchair and tried my pastries. They also have a restroom and I was so happy it was big enough for my stroller! My guess though is that when it's really busy it's probably hard to get a stroller in the front door. read more

Finally made it to Black Magic after following them on Instagram and constantly drooling over their selection. Their doughnuts are made fresh and selection is updated often using fresh and in season ingredients. The doughnuts are big and delicious. I learned some flavors can sell out as they are made daily. They also serve sandwiches on house made breads, coffees, and other pastries. I love that they have a cute sitting area and sell some cute merchandise like tshirts and coffee. read more

I'd give this spot 100 stars. Owned + operated by amazing people. Incredible pastries. The pretzel cinnie (not sure if available all year round) changed my life. I love this spot and you need to run there it's so worth it. read more

Have wanted to visit this new spot for the longest time and I managed to go before their closing/sold out! Definitely more quiet than other cafes in Ridgewood but I really enjoyed their interior and seating - more cozy and calming. Their donuts seem a little cakier than my preference but all the flavors looked delicious - there's definitely more pastries and donuts I want to try next time! read more

Black Magic Bakehouse - Pumpkin Crème Brûlée - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ridgewood, New Jersey

Not a person who enjoys sweets, drink anything past an iced latte with minimal syrups added. And yet, Black Magic has me disappointed when they operate only from Thursday through Sunday as I crave to go visit on a tuesday, haha. The portions are huge, the prices are more than reasonable and the decorative interior can be split into three genres. Punk Rock rebel, Rustic and relaxed wooden interior and gothic church vibes deeper in the back. Black Magic Bakehouse lives up to its name and personality. . The menu changes every month, and trying nearly half the menu with friends in my two trips in July left me wanting to make it a regular visit. I travel out of my way to visit this particular bakery to get my sweet tooth sated and wait for what new creations this team will make for the coming months. I'll be back, and wait begrudgingly for the end of the week to arrive. read more

The banana Thai iced tea filled donut was delicious! You can taste both flavors in a nice balance and although it was nearly closing the donut was not stale or tough. The texture of the cream was a light cream so it wasn't over sweet or too thick... very well done! I'd like to try other unique flavors in future visits. I was slightly disappointed that there was no cappuccino on the menu which is my go to. So I only got a donut and was given only this flimsy paper holder. This would have been fine, but the two women after me ordered a similar item each and were each given a sturdier pink box. Ideally, consistency in customer service could be better as well as cleanliness. The back seating area needed a good sweep. However, these are minor points as the food is the star and I would takeaway from here in the future. read more

I love this place, glad I don't live closer or I'd literally be here every day. The staff is friendly, the ambiance is super cute and eclectic (obsessed with the mosaic bird light), service was quick and food was out of this world. My friend and I split the seasonal passion fruit cinnamon roll and the breakfast sandwich with sausage- the cinnamon roll was sweet, chewy, and the passion fruit was a unique touch I haven't seen done before. The egg on the breakfast sandwich was super fluffy and the bread tasted super fresh. I also got a turkey sandwich for my other friend and it was HUGE and looked phenomenal. Can't wait to come back and try it! Ps- I recommend getting the marshmallow on top of your coffee for like $1, it was perfect. read more

Very few times has a place showed so much promise but did not deliver in the taste department. Thebdonuts were funky. Yuzu one had a foul taste to it. The cinnamon roll was ok but wasn't soft. The chocolate chip cookies were also hard and not my style. The crueller was probably the best thing I had. The other donuts with fillings were nothing special. My synopsis is that they are trying too hard to make something creative. Sometimes you got to throw the fastball right down the middle. I tried almost everything they had on display and I don't think anything impressed me. Wishing them luck but not my place. read more

I remember following BMBH throughout NJ/NJ when they would do pop-ups at breweries and local events because the baked goods were THAT good. It truly makes me so happy to know that they have a well deserved storefront in Ridgewood to share their talent and tasty treats on a daily basis. I finally got to try the new location out today and as I knew I would be, I was blown away! The everything doughnut with cream cheese filling was delightful, every bite had me saying,"I hope I don't finish this just yet!" I really cannot begin to put into words how delicious and special every piece of her baked goods are! It's a 10/10 every time...don't just trust my review, go try it yourself! read more

Black Magic Bakehouse - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ridgewood, New Jersey

BRAND NEW brick and mortar location in West Ridgewood. After a lot of hype and healthy Instagram following, I wanted to check out this bakery. I won't say that I was impressed, but I'll come back when they are more established and more comfortable with the operation/traffic flow and update my rating then. Because it's so new, there were several people frantically parking outside. The line was long and confusing based on the location of the entrance... there is a counter with chairs by the window that is practically unusable because of this long line - with time and slower traffic this should work itself out. There are several baked items to choose from but you'll need to get there early because they open at 7am and close at sell out. Note: they fry everything in peanut oil (in case you/family/friends are allergic). I ordered the ONE chocolate chip cookie they had. I was given a cookie with no chocolate chips. When I asked to swap for the other one I was told "they're all chocolate chip cookies. I said okay thinking the chips are under the baked dough... nope! I also ordered a cream cheese icing cinnamon roll. It was good overall but too much bread to icing ratio.... The icing was probably the best part! Lastly, I found it odd that the person filing the donuts did not have her hair pulled back, in a bun, or under a hair net. read more

I really wanted to love this place. The inside is so adorable it feels like you're in NYC. The staff was so nice. The pastries made the entire place smell delicious. However, the pastries themselves were completely underwhelming. I got a stuffed cinnamon roll which while the dough was delicious and fluffy like a cloud there was such a lack of cinnamon in the roll and the cream cheese frosting on top might as well have been a block of cream cheese, which is so disappointing. I would not call this a true cinnamon roll. I also got their milk and cookies swirlie and two of their seasonal donuts banana coffee and coconut cream, which were also underwhelming and had bland flavoring with tons of cream. The bread on the swirlie was also very dry. The best thing I got there was their Keylime Cruffin which had the most flavorful lime filling, and the cruffin in itself was so buttery and delicious that I think I'd go back just for the cruffin but nothing else. I really wanted to love this place, but it just did not wow me like I was expecting it to. Maybe I'll go back one day and have a total different and better experience. For the time being, I'll be sticking to other bakeries in Bergen County. read more

Alright i don't know where to start. I know i am not alone when i say the service could be more friendlier. I never get a hello, thank you or even a smile which is fine i guess. I can't say i had a bad experience. It's always packed when i stop by therefore i always take it to go. So here's the deal. If you want to know if the hype is real and if it's worth the drive yes! Yes it is. Go! You may have some trouble finding a parking spot or find yourself waiting in line outside but it's not a big deal. The sourdough doughnuts are AMAZING! They went from a weekly menu to a monthly menu which i think pleases everyone. - get the doughnuts. All of them. Glazed too - banana bread is a must - get the focaccia - i'm shocked i never had her sourdough bread but will next time i go - actually just get a variety of things and i'm sure you will be here often. The portions are HUGE! I really like her creativity. This gotta be top 10 bakeries in North Jersey it's that freakin good and a must visit. read more

Saw this bakery on instagram from someone I follow and I had to try. What caught my eye were the options they had seemed so appetizing. I decided to visit on a Sunday around 10 am. The wait time was pretty long as the line was outside the door (this is how I know it's good). I waited for about 30 minutes online. The bakery is pretty small but there is seating for one to sit and enjoy. All the pasties were made fresh and menu updated on social media or what was still available and what was sold out. They had Fresh bread, artisan donuts and savory items such as sandwiches made with their homemade focaccia bread and other items. Everything was fresh and made with love and care and I appreciated it. The donuts I ordered were the maple cinnamon, lemon glaze, apple cider and the chai swirl. SO GOOD and I loved the flavor combinations perfect for fall. I also ordered the bacon egg and cheese sandwich. The eggs were fluffy and bread super soft it was perfect. I sat down for a while to enjoy my meal and read my book. The staff was very friendly. Yeh ambiance was perfect and cozy, they even have items such as shifts and sweaters for sale. I would make my return but I'll be sure to visit earlier in the day. There is also seating outside, street parking available and store is open from Thursday-Friday 8 am-4 till sell out and Saturdays-Sunday 8am-3 pm till sell out. read more

I was dying to try this place based on stories I kept seeing on instagram. I went to visit on a Sunday morning around 7:50am and got a few things: the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, strawberry shortcake donut, everything bagel donut, black forest donut, raspberry earl grey donut, and a cinny croissant bun. The BEC sandwich was an impulse buy because I was starving but omg, you must try their breakfast sandwiches. The bread was so soft and flavorful and the fillings inside were plentiful and seasoned beautifully. If you want something savory, don't sleep on this breakfast item. All the pastries were really good but there were a few that stood out. The everything bagel donut is a MUST ORDER. Originally when I saw this item on the menu, I did not gravitate towards it bc I wasn't sure how I felt about a donut/bagel crossover but this donut was probably my favorite of the bunch. The filling was not over powering and the donut shell was super soft - the perfect balance. The strawberry shortcake donut was also really good! I loved that the frosting was not too sweet and it really did taste like strawberry shortcake in donut form. My favorite thing about this bakery is that they constantly cycle through different items so there is always something new on the menu to try! Service was fast and the workers were really focused (even with a line out the door). Storefront itself was really beautifully designed. We actually enjoyed our baked goods while in the outdoor seating. If you're in the area, you should definitely try to stop by (assuming they haven't sold out of goods for the day already). read more

Great small business that has been open in Ridgewood for a couple of months! When I went, I was able to check their Instagram where their daily menu had been uploaded via their story. I was absolutely blown away by the different flavors. As you can see, I pictured some donuts; everything bagel and raspberry. The raspberry doughnut was hands-down...The best donut I've ever had in my whole entire life!! additionally we got some other things, including a pastrami sandwich (10 out of 10) however, I could do without the olives in the focaccia bread I would highly recommend anyone go check out this bakery, but specifically on a day when you have time to wait outside in the line... Even in the rain like we did. It's worth the wait however if you wanna skip the line, I recommend going 20 minutes before opening to secure your spot. read more

I've been dying to try Black Magic. We are big sourdough fans and their baked goods look amazing on social media. The owner is great about posting their daily menu and updates on what's remaining for the day. Knowing the line can get pretty long, I was stoked to see just a few people lined up outside on Saturday morning. However, I was fooled and service is slooow. The line is not due to demand, but due to inefficiency. When it was finally my turn, I asked the gentleman if I should go ahead and rattle things off -- he said yes, I listed the 6 items, he came back with 3 and looked at me blankly. I stated the other 3 again. He moved at a snail's pace. I appreciate the care, but it should not take 10 minutes to pack a simple order. There is only one register so even though 3 people are taking orders, it takes time to be rung up. (I'll admit that my crying baby waiting in the car with my partner made things feel worse.) That said, the baked goods were OUTSTANDING. The stuffed donuts are especially delicious, and the focaccia may as well be the best we ever had. Seriously amazing, and we're eager to try more. They are an amazing way to start the day (or have anytime truly). We would have returned the very next day but could not commit to 45 minutes! Fully acknowledge how difficult it is to run a bakery, and hope they are able to improve their processes to support the demand for their banging goods. read more

Get their early for best selection. I need to take my own advice as when I got there at around 1pm on a Saturday there were tons that were already sold out. It was such a hard decision on what to get as everything looked amazing but settled on the jalpeno scone and the Chai maple scone. Both delicious. Will definitely be back to try some other goodies- Early this time! read more

Perfection on a Sunday morning! You can taste the freshness of every bread and donut you bit into. The cafe had a line nonstop, a good sign that everything was about to be perfect.

I have heard a lot of people raving about this place so I finally went to check it out. I went on a Saturday morning around 10 and the line wasn't very long (5 min wait) and they still had plenty of items in stock. from what I understand the menu rotates each day and they are open til they sell out. presentation of the food is fantastic. donuts are made with sourdough brioche base. the result is a donut that is a little sour and not very sweet. personally not for me. chocolate croissant was REALLY good. good coffee here too. there are other savory foods and sandwiches that I didn't get a chance to try - but maybe next time! read more
