While the hours are pretty limited, it's worth making an effort to visit. I arrived around 9 am on a Sunday, and miraculously there was no line. I ordered a BEC and a seasonal donut and have no regrets. The bread was soft, the eggs were fluffy, and the bacon was thick. The caramelized onions were a great counterpoint to the sharp cheddar and tangy ketchup. The donut was soft and fluffy and had a rich yet light pumpkin cream filling. One thing to note is that the crème donut is only available on Sunday! Otherwise I would've gone for the apple cider cruller. All in all a great spot for breakfast and I look forward to my next visit! read more

Tiny little spot with lines out the door. I don't know how they do it but whatever they're doing, they're doing it right, every single time. Perfect brioche buns, fluffy eggs and the crunchiest bacon. Highly suggest take out bc it's so hard to grab a seat but if I can, I'll sit down and eat just to experience it freshly made. It's worth the hype! So worth the hype. read more

Scram - Bacon egg & cheese on the most perfect brioche bun - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Scram was a cozy place that I found exploring while visiting new york. I came near the tail end of their opening hours so lines weren't too bad. The store is bigger than your average coffee store and about the same size as your average bakery. They have an assortment of fresh buns made to order of which I had to get. There's also a small coffee menu and a larger tea menu. Cold brew- Pretty standard cold brew. Solid and gets the job done, but wasn't the smoothest Ham milk bun- The bun part was very good, and the jam was also delicious. The egg was my favorite, being runny and soft and warm and fresh. My only gripe was that the ham was a bit cold and on the drier side. Overall really solid! As I left the baristas managed to remember my name which I really appreciated :) read more

Nice local bakery! Got there before closing. I got the strawberry white chocolate chip scone and the egg tart. I think they ran out of cinnamon buns at that point. Both pastries were good. The scone was moist and not dry! read more

Scram - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Scram is a local favorite and it's quite easy to see why. Because of their extremely limited hours, the lines usually go out the door on any day, even weekdays. Their menu is straight to the point. They specialize in egg sandwiches and they're very good at it. My favorite here is the sausage bun. The bread bun is soft and absorbs the fat from the quality ingredients. The jalapeños complement the fat from the sausage and cuts it. The coffee is pretty standard and I like that you can also grab a pastry from their huge selection as well. Definitely recommend and worth it to stand in line for sure. read more

Scram - Sausage bun and bacon bun with the egg salad on the side - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Super popular bakery/ coffee shop! Well, at least on the weekends. The pastries are good & the coffee they brew I believe is Parlor coffee so you can't go wrong. The americano was great and the pastries were good albeit on the sweet side. They sell out of egg tarts QUICKLY and sold out right when I was waiting in line. Line moves very slowly here. On a Saturday you would think they offer baby stroller valet. The breakfast sandwiches are super popular and come with a hefty price tag. Maybe they are worth it? Seems like people really enjoy them. I still want to try the egg tarts.... one day. read more

Breakfast sandwiches were juicy and flavorful. The puff was very tasty - it was lighter than a biscuit so the sandwich was not too dense and had good balance. But the breakfast sandwiches are pretty pricey. Pastries were unfortunately underwhelming. The donut wasn't special and the cruller was a little soft and soggy. I do want to try the other pastries though. read more

Scram - Sausage Sandwich - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

First off the sandwich was tasty. I got the sausage bun and it was nice. We also tried the egg tart, it was ok. The coffee was fine. The cons: -Prices are high -Seating is a challenge...some of the tables don't even have chairs. -The wait is excessive. There's usually a long line, and then the wait to get food after placing the order is long (especially since it's such a limited menu). read more

The line was out the door when we arrived but we wanted to try it, so we waited. There is stroller parking outside, and none are allowed inside. Once we made it in, we could see why. The space is right, with about 10 or so tables up against either wall, but most on the left. It was very lively, but floors had a bunch of spilled drinks and food. When we got to the front to order, most of their baked goods were sold out except for three items. Ended up buying the last two chocolate chip cookies, three breakfast sandwiches, and a tea. There is a water station as well, if you'd prefer that. The sandwiches took about 15mins to come out, which wasn't bad considering the place was packed on the Saturday morning. The sausage breakfast sandwich was my favorite, super fluffy eggs. The right balance of spicy and savory. I do wish there was more sauce, and felt the same about the fontina but nonetheless still a solid spot. read more

Best breakfast sandwich place in jersey! When you walk in the place smells soooo good! Like butter... Can get really busy --------- All the sandwiches are good! Fluffy egg but ham has egg with yolk that spills out. I think the other sandwiches are all's scrambled eggs and it's so soft and fluffy Ham: the best! So good cus the pineapple jam and thinly sliced ham. I like this the best cus I think it's harder to find a sandwich like this Bacon: can't go wrong. Second fav! Sausage: solid. I don't think the jalapeños make it spicy. I needed hot sauce and maybe even some ketchup Fontina: good. Liked the shallots and all. Pimento: tasted like it was on a biscuit. It's good ------- Granola and yogurt panna cotta was soooo good! But I didn't know how pricy it was. My bf got it and I really enjoyed it but idk if I'd pay that much for it again Honey cake also really good Cookies were all good but my fav was the citrus cus it had like a yuzu taste and so subtle.. my sis liked the vanilla malt. Scone - tried the cranberry pistachio or something and we both thought it was okay and wouldn't get it again Lemon cheesecake bread or something- would not get against so underwhelming and did not like the black pepper. Kiwi pie crust or something- like a kiwi pop tart... good but wouldn't get again. Would like more of the kiwi inside ------ Iced chai latte with oatmilk- omg sooooo good! Def getting it again when I go back ------- Service is good :) everyone is so kind and patient even in all the busyness ----- Parking: street read more

After living in the area for 4 years, we finally made our way to Scram to grab some breakfast sandwiches. They're only open from 8am - 12pm Thursday to Sunday, so there's a limited time to actually try them. I had the Ham sandwich and X had the sausage sandwich. Both were excellent, and I loved the brioche bun. Actually almost every sandwich on the menu sounded good and I am definitely coming back for the Pimento cheese sandwich. We also split a Passionfruit doughnut braid and it was phenomenal. I would 10/10 come back just for that doughnut braid. So good, so tart. so moist. read more

I was sooo excited to finally get to scram and wow it did not disappoint. Definitely one of the best cookies i've ever had which I was not expecting! The flavor was incredible, but for some reason the pimento puff breakfast did not sit well with me for the rest of the day. read more

I've tried both the ham and the sausage sandwiches. the sandwiches are great, but I had to knock a star down because of the price. A $13 (in 2023) sandwich this small makes it hard for me to come back. However the coffee is also good and the seating is a great addition. read more

Highly recommend their scram sandwiches, my favorite is the bacon. Eat it fresh for best flavor! The sandwiches are similar to egg slut which is a chain located in So Cal. They are pricey. I've had their almond brioche which has a great texture and great taste. The workers here are super sweet. It's a seat yourself, serve yourself, grab your coffee and food when your name is called. A place to chill and catch up with a friend. read more

Best breakfast sandwich. I always get the sausage. The eggs are so light and fluffy the sausage has loads of jalepeno (not too spicy just the right kick) the brioche. It's a good size sandwich but I inhale it in two minutes it's just that perfect. The cold brew is amazing and I'm very picky about my coffee, and it gives me the extra pep. They also have amazing pasties and cookies. Scram makes for a great start of the day read more

Ordered the chorizo breakfast sandwich. It had a surprisingly sweet tomato jam on it that was too sweet to pair with eggs in my opinion. The bun was deliciously buttery and flaky, you could tell it was made in-house. Could've used more chorizo and less sweet jam sauce. Wouldn't get this one again, but looking forward to trying the classic bacon sandwich next time. Cold brew was great. read more

Whoa. That egg tart is the business. I thought it was overhyped but... wow. The egg tart is so eggy and not custard creamy like the average one, but so rich while not being heavy, and overall delicious. The burnt top gives it a caramelized flavor at the end of your bite that makes it scandalous... We also got a sausage wrap... I'd say its just ok but bf loved it. It's def where I'd go when craving a bfast sandwich but next time will try the bacon/ham. Iced latte with the SESAME MILK. You guys have me looking through whole foods like a crazy person with no sesame milk to be found :'( Service was fast and friendly and there was plenty of standing room for your average coffeeshop on a Sat morning at 10am. I blame the torrential downpour. $14 for a breakfast sandwich is questionable. $5 for an eggtart is also questionable. Will revisit upon craving a bfast sando/sesame milk craving/luscious egg tart desire. read more

Scram is quickly becoming our favorite weekend place to walk to for coffee and breakfast. Yes, they make great coffee - an iced latte for me (soon to become hot as the temperatures fall) and matcha for the wife, hot or iced depending on the day. Very well made, and not grossly overpriced. But the real treat here is the pastries. I can't say enough about the quiche with bacon jam. Even the next day, if you can wait that long, it tastes absolutely amazing. How is it so soft? For sweets only, grab a cruller, no matter the flavor. We had the apple one last week and it was absolutely fantastic. Funny enough, the one thing we haven't tried yet is the sandwiches. We've seen them being made, and being eaten, and I can say with certainty that I'm sure they taste just as good as they look. That's next for us. read more

First time I came to the bakery was Saturday 10am and after waiting 30 min, was told most of the pastries were already sold out. This time I came at Saturday 8am and with barely any line, I left with my order in 10 min. Ordered the ham bun and egg custard tarts. Ham Bun: The brioche is soft and warm, and the egg is over easy. The ham has a VERY sweet pineapple marinade which I didn't appreciate. It's too sweet for a breakfast sandwich so early in the morning. The $9 price tag seems unjustified for a breakfast sandwich but the ham/bacon/sausage sandwiches are the bakery's most popular items. Not sure if I'll crave and/or order this again any time soon. Egg Tarts: I'm a fan of both Hong Kong and Portuguese egg tarts. Scram's egg tart's outward appearance resembles the Portuguese type, being burnt at the top. The custard is creamy and sweet (surprisingly less sweet than the ham) while the outside is flaky and toasted. It tastes similar to the Portuguese egg tarts I pick up at my local Chinese bakery but these have extra volume! Would definitely recommend trying this one out! read more

This place is amazing!! I always go for their pimento and pastry (so far have tried the egg tart, carrot cake, and cinnamon roll and cookie - all delicious!) The egg tarts usually sell out around 10/10:30am so be sure to get there early. Staff is also super friendly! There is not a lot of seating inside so most people take it to go. I only wish they were open for more days or longer hours. I believe their current hours are Thursday - Sunday 8am -12pm. A definite go to in jersey city! read more

A delightful way to start your morning. I prefer to share my food so we bought our items $20 dollars as a light breakfast before lunch. Reasonable for the quality of their food. The ambiance is great the music is great and the shoo always has people in line but we got our stuff almost immediately. Really great business I would come here everyday if I could read more

I don't know how they get their eggs so fluffy here. I am now on a mission to figure out how to do this. The rolls are fluffy too. In fact, I'd just rename this place Fluffy Scram. But it's really really good. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is they don't sell juice. Not all of us drink coffee, and making a 2nd stop to get juice is annoying. A fresh squeezed OJ or "fancy shmancy" juices would fit in with the vibe and that would make it a 5 star joint. read more

We love Scram! Arrive early in a Saturday/Sunday Morning to experience delicious egg sandwiches with the most delightful meats and specialty jams.

the early bird gets the sandwiches! finally made my way over here after multiple (mental) attempts to try to come over here on weekend mornings. the bakery wasn't too crowded when i got there and a few ppl were waiting on their order. the layout of the place was a little odd, you'd see the coffee station first, kitchen, display case for the baked goods, refrigerated case with some juices, and you'd order at the small station in the back on the left side. ordering was quick and easy and i got the following to try: -ham sandwich: runny egg, gruyere, bechamel, ham, pineapple jam on the softest milk buns. the pineapple jam was a nice sweet, surprising touch. -sausage sandwich: fluffy scrambled eggs, cream cheese, chives, jalapenos, sausage on the same soft milk buns too. the flavors were good, though i did the find the texture of the sausage was a little "close" and sorta dry. -cinnamon roll: soft & pillowy, cinnamon-y, and just the right amount of sweetness. what a treat! -iced latte (with whole milk): a little too milky for my taste, the coffee became a little muted. it took about 15 mins for me to order and get my food. i do understand that they're made to order but even at that felt a bit long lol. highly recommend the ham sandwich when you go, and some baked goods too. will return for sure. read more

Those that follow me closely on Yelp will be getting a lot of coffee bar reviews through the summer! I've made it my mission to go to a new one at least once a week to spice things up... two weeks ago: Scram! I was so excited to try out Scram but had a bit of difficulty as they're closed a few days of the week. I walked there without looking thinking that they would be open but, nope! Closed. After a couple of tries and googling their hours I was successful in finding a time to go when they were open. While there, I ordered a latte, bottled kombucha, filled donut, and a blackberry tart-like pastry. The individuals working the counter were very nice and even though they were busy, took their time with each customer. My coffee was good while the tart that I got seemed a little dry (yes it was a tart, yes it was still dryer than expected). My boyfriend said that the donut and the kombucha were great! I would love to go back here to try out more of their breakfast options in the future like their eggs and breakfast sides. I saw someone sitting down while we were there and they looked fantastic. Overall, cute little spot with a nice vibe! Just make sure they're open before you walk over:) read more

Scram - Bacon scram - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

The egg tart is what I get up early to wait in line for. What makes it shine is the jiggly, creamy, sweet custard. I don't usually have breakfast, so at my usual mealtime I reheat the egg tarts in the oven at 350F for ~6 min to make the crust flaky again. There is a world of difference between eating it cold and reheated. The sweet potato quiche is a good choice if you want something savory. Despite being the same size as their egg tart, it is twice as filling. Their custard toast I didn't enjoy, mostly due to its tanginess (maybe lemon?). This is a bakery where you only need to check what time it opens, not when it closes -- if you are not here within an hour of its opening, your choices will be limited. read more

I wanted to check out what the hype was about after passing by this place and always seeing a long line. I decided today will be the day and got there 10 mins before it opened. The line was short at that time moved quite fast and the whole experience took about 25mins. The staff is very friendly and they move the process along quickly. They have a selection of three types of buns and I decided to go for the ham with fried egg, pineapple jam and gruyere. The bun was super soft and the combo of flavors with a runny egg worked for me! It is a bit pricey for an egg sandwich and more of a treat for me. They had a selection of pastries and I decided to go for the egg tart and cruller. The tart is similar to a Portuguese egg tart and was so yummy. The cruller was chocolatey goodness . My chai latte was ok and probably would not go for that again. It's a cute place to visit again sometime, but only if there is not a long line. read more
