They have very limited food options. They had some croissants that looked really good but they don't make the Egg and cheese sandwiches on them, seems like a miss to me. I wanted it on the croissant but they told me the only make them on the wraps and that they are premade the day before. I had a peach and mango smoothie and it was very refreshing and delicious but I know it was made with sugary purées and syrups rather than real fruit. If they have more food options, make sandwiches fresh, I would be more into this place.

I remembered Deluca's unbelievably rich chocolate dessert from years before. I can't remember what it was called, but it had chocolate mousse, cheesecake, and chocolate something else. There was no way for me to finish a slice. Trust me, share it with someone or keep it in the fridge and let it last you several days. Since I was visiting my folks, this cozy little shop was a no-brainer for me. It's Italian and no one bothers you. This is all about cakes and coffee. I had a slice of key lime mousse this time. Oh yes! It was very good, and I can actually finish this one by myself! No guilt there. My latte was perfection. I might even claim it as one of the best I've ever had. *don't hate me, Seattlites* You see, Bayonne, Jersey still offers Italians a hint of cultural identity. From this, I expected nothing but goodness done right from this shop. It did not disappoint. I was there for 2 and a half hours this weekend to study. During that time, it seemed like there were a mix of friendly clientele. As much as I don't want to admit it, I sometimes miss hearing the Jersey accent.

The pastries are consistently a highlight - always incredibly fresh, perfectly made, and so delicious.

I adore the atmosphere here; it's so cozy and cute, making it the perfect spot whether I want to surf the web, catch up with a friend, dive into a book, or just enjoy a coffee. Speaking of enjoying things, their menu is fantastic! I recently had the waffles with strawberries, chocolate syrup, and tons of whipped cream - the portion was huge and every bite was absolutely mouthwatering. Bean & Leaves is a true gem! Please stop by if you're in the area, you can thank me later. *wink, wink* Oh, and Free Wifi is always a plus!

We hired Beans & Leaves to provide a coffee bar for our daughter's engagement brunch, and they were…read moreabsolutely fantastic. The morning of our event there was snow on the ground, and Danielle, one of the owners, personally called early to confirm everything was still on. She shoveled herself out and drove in from New Jersey to make sure the coffee bar was set up and ready. That level of dedication and professionalism truly stood out. The coffee bar itself was a huge hit. They offered espresso drinks, cappuccinos, flavored lattes, oat milk options, and iced selections -- all made fresh to order. The quality was excellent and truly café-level, not just standard event coffee. The iced lattes were especially popular with our guests. The setup was polished and professional, the baristas were friendly and efficient, and it added such a fun, elevated touch to the brunch. If you're planning a wedding event, shower, or special celebration, I highly recommend Beans & Leaves. Exceptional service, delicious coffee, and a team that genuinely cares about your event.

There are several reasons why Double Batch is #1 my FAVORITE bakery probably of all time and why…read moreI'll be ordering all my special event cakes/treats from them.., 1. Everything I've ever ordered from them has always been absolutely delicious. You can tell love goes into the cake and the quality of ingredients is top notch. The attention to detail and the care that goes into is remarkable. 2. Their attentiveness to their work and their customer service skills are excellent. I can get really anxious ordering for special occasions and they are so patient and helpful in answering your questions. 3. They deliver on their work and it shows. Every guest at my party was in love with the cake. Maple cake with salted caramel buttercream. Is this the second time I've ordered this exact cake from them? YUP! Was it as good as I remembered from the last time?! EVEN BETTER 4. Their efficient business model and team makes ordering and enjoying baked goods in a relaxing way is unparalleled. Rachel is so super talented and her team are wonderful. Go to Double Batch and treat yourself immediately!! You won't be disappointed.

Everything looked delicious in person. We arrived to the store front window and was immediately greeted by the young lady inside. There were a few things I wanted to try and one of them was the croissamada cause I do love a traditional ensymada and was interested to try it in a croissant. I also picked up some cookies, brownie and an oatmeal creme pie. Everything was delicious! I loved the croissamada the extra buttery-ness and flakiness was amazing! I will be back again and support this local business!

I was in the mood for a Brown Sugar Bubble Tea which they don't make but suggested Milk tea and for an extra $1, tapioca or Lychee jelly. The pastries, maybe since it was 5pm, looked lackluster. I've seen pictures of Doughnuts but there were none just a muffin and a Financier bow tie (?). The tea was brought to me and one sip I knew, this was not the best Bubble tea, lacked sweetness and frankly underwhelming. The staff is courteous and will come again if I'm back in this side of Bay Ridge. I would like to try their Chai latte and maybe a pastry. I do love their logo, little bear?

I think I found the best coffee in Bay Ridge!…read more You have to understand my morning. I live in Stony Brook so when the stars are aligned and there is no traffic on the Belt I can order a great cuppa coffee before work. I park across the street and was the first one in the small establishment. I see two gents hustling behind the counter and zero in on the baked goods. I'm not understanding the spiced lattes but after a few times, I'll try the Cardamom latte but for now I'm sticking with a Flat White and a freshly baked croissant. The flat white I ordered? Perfecto. If a good cup of coffee costs the same as a chain coffee slop they serve to the masses, I'll take a well crafted coffee from Clockface Coffee to start my day. Hopefully, if the traffic is light on the Belt Parkway, I can stop by in the morning. I grew up in Canarsie but all the great local places I keep finding by the job, Bay Ridge rocks!
