We called immediately & was told that only the manager would be able to help us. Problem is the manager is NEVER available to help us.

Donuts, stale & the rest wasn't available but charged. It was a delivery. So, I found a bakery with much better, fresher products. Word of mouth is everything.

I ordered my eggs scrambled, served over a bed of house-style potatoes loaded with peppers, onions, salt, pepper, and a special ingredient that makes them stand out: bacon! I also ordered a fresh orange juice, and it was truly fresh and delicious. To top it off, I got a slice of coconut cake that was amazingly soft and delicious. Every time I eat here or order takeout, I leave completely satisfied. Blessings to everyone on the team, and congratulations on the great work!

La Rancherita Bakery 181 N. Washington Ave…read more Bergenfield, NJ 07621 Sweet Bread Tacos: Pork/Chicken/Steak Flan While the exterior appears to be small and mediocre in appearance, the inside is filled with fantastic pastries at really affordable prices. There's no wall menu and the bakers primary language is Spanish, so I am unable to identify the types of sweet bread. Name or no name, the bread is a sweet choice to supplement your breakfast. They each have a light, puffy, and flaky texture and are great for dipping in your morning cup of Joe. If you aren't craving pastries, there is a lunch selection available. Double wrapped in two soft shells, the tacos are a quick, but satisfying meal. In my opinion, it wasn't necessary to include cucumbers and lime. But, the chopped radishes surprisingly gave the tacos a nice crunch and you can never have enough cilantro and hot sauce. Whether you are in the mood for breakfast or dessert pastries, stop by for treats that are light on both your tummy and wallet! #LaRancherita #sweetbread #flan #tacos #bergenfieldnj #nwashingtonave #spanishbakery

This is THE place to get Mexican food out here. Hands down. This is it…read more Tastes great. Big portions. And way more authentic than any of the other little shops I've tried around here. You know some of the ways to tell if ethnic food is good in a non enclave area? These aren't 100% but often good signs. The workers mostly don't speak English. The customers are all that ethnicity, many of them also speaking little to no English. They hit both. It helps a lot to speak Spanish, especially over the fone. But they make it work if all you know is gringo. Huge tortas. Surprisingly good shrimp quesadillas. Proper tacos and birria with the consommé. Refreshing salsa verde and creamy salsa roja. Big flavors. Admittedly I'm not a fan of their baked goods, but they do have good priced specials on them.

Visiting from Boston and stopped in for the first time--hands down the BEST bagels I've had. I…read morepicked up a dozen bagels, a breakfast sandwich, and a coffee to go. The bagels were perfect: crisp and firm on the outside, moist and chewy on the inside, and a great size. My whole family enjoyed them. The breakfast sandwich was amazing--flavorful egg, melty cheese, and tasty ham all stacked on one of those fresh bagels. The coffee was excellent too, and they nailed my order with just "a touch of milk." Staff was super friendly and welcoming--big thanks to Sayed! Loved the sandwich and really appreciated the service. My only critique? I should've bought 2 dozen bagels instead of one, because they didn't last long at all. Highly recommend this spot.

Sorry to say, no longer the best bagels in the area. Looks like change in management - same family…read moreit appears - but quality has noticeably declined. From a slightly dense, chewy tasty and crusty outside to a puffy, white bready, little taste and no crust. Sad, but that seems to be the way of the world. The dough needs to rise and shaped then chilled, overnight is best, then they need to be boiled with some baking soda, or other food grade alkali, to produce a Maillard reaction in the crust. All this takes time and money. To be fair, the staff is friendly, the store is clean and they do have good chicken salad and bagels are generally fresh. No overnighters that I am aware of. So sad to see another one bite the bagel, um er, the dust.....

I've been to various Paris Baguette locations around Central Jersey, and honestly, I wasn't a huge…read morefan... until recently. Let me explain. At one location I frequented, the coffee had really disappointed me. Once upon a time, their coffee was delicious, with rich, chocolatey notes, but the last few visits left me with bitter, almost burnt-tasting drinks, and no amount of milk could fix it. This was surprising, since they supposedly use LavAzza beans. I also never loved their cakes; I often found them too heavy on icing and light on actual cake. However, on a recent trip while shopping at 99 Ranch Market (which is conveniently right next door), we decided to give Paris Baguette another try and treat ourselves to pastries. I was immediately impressed by their selection and how frequently the display was refilled. Every item was behind a glass case, which felt very clean and hygienic. The cashiers were great at making the hot beverages, and they asked if we had a rewards program with them. We gave them our phone numbers, and it turned out none of us had signed up or that they expired. Here's what we purchased: - Cafe Mocha - 5/5 stars. Perfect balance of espresso and chocolate. The barista even made a heart on top. Although the lid covered it, the gesture was appreciated. - Cold Brew - 5/5 stars. Smooth and refreshing. - Chausson aux Pommes - 4/5 stars. A French apple turnover with a perfectly crisp crust and tender, flavorful apples that weren't mushy. - Croissant Donut - 5/5 stars. Flaky, buttery croissant-like in shape of a donut, filled with custard that was bright due to the citrus, and well-balanced between sweet and savory. - Blueberry & Cream Brioche - 5/5 stars. Their crust was crispy and light. It was an indulgent treat that was well balanced as the custard was rich, soft, and just sweet enough without being heavy. Patrons can help themselves to cream, milk, utensils, and napkins, which is convenient. The seating is roomy and relaxing, perfect for lingering over coffee and pastries. It's located in the Home Depot strip mall. Parking is usually easy on weekdays, but weekends can get a little hectic. Overall, this visit completely changed my opinion of Paris Baguette. The coffee and pastries were impeccable, and the environment made for a pleasant, stress-free experience. Definitely worth a stop if you're nearby.

I've heard a lot of good things about Christine's Bake Shop from family members and other Yelpers,…read moreso I decided to stop by during my little visit to the Berg. This particular branch is small, but does carry quite a variety of freshly baked breads, pastries, and cakes. Mini Pan de Sal ($1.50): Freshly baked? Yes! That price is unbeatable. Taste wise, it's solid. However, I'll have to echo another Yelper: Christine's does not pump out "the best pan de sal on the planet." It's a matter of opinion, of course; however, the fresh pan de sal from a random bakery in the Philippines tops this, hands down. I'll also second Valerios in California, especially the San Jose branch (shoutout to the 408!). However, I do think the pan de sal here is soft and delicious. I'm used to buying the larger Stella's-brand pan de sal, but Christine's is good too. Pandan Cake Roll ($12): From the first bite, I could tell it was fresh. The cake was soft, moist, and had a good amount of cream filling. I'm not fond of cake, but this was alright since it was not overly sweet. I'm not sure what it was, but the small green dots on top of the icing stuck to my teeth, so that was probably the main thing I did not like about this roll. Pastillas ($2.80): These are probably the best items I bought. They were super soft, rich, flavorful, and tasty. Get the ube flavored ones! It has the perfect balance of sweetness, and is not as rich or sweet as the original Pastillas de Leche. There is also a pandan flavor if that appeals to you, as well. I would definitely come back for the Pastillas de Ube. There are different kinds of ensaymada, cake rolls ($11-12 each), larger round cakes ($24-$25 each), pan de coco, mamon, Food of the Gods, brownies, and...cannolis!? They also do custom-design cakes.
