If you're in Clifton and you're craving baked delights at a reasonable price. Look no further than Styertowne. My uncle brought me in today because he swears by this place and gets excited to go before work each day. As soon as you walk in the smell and the aroma immediately smacks you in the face. The staff are friendly and the bakery is intimate in its design. When you enter, you're greeted by cakes and cookies and a variety of selections. Def worth stopping by! read more

I waited a long time to post this review as I wanted to make sure that I was being reasonable and not reacting out of anger. I went here last year around Thanksgiving as I have been a big fan of this bakery for many years. I actually drive almost 30 minutes for treats to bring my family for the holidays. It was busy when I went in and a I waited in line for my turn. Once the man in front of me ordered, and the young blonde girl behind the counter called next, I went to place my order and the man in front of me mistakenly thought he could have her do the rest of his order. I still tried to get her attention, but she refused to even look at me. Here I will note that I look very different from the other patrons in the bakery at the time... take that for what it's worth. The other workers saw this happening, and didnt acknowledge how I was being ignored by this girl. The middle aged woman who works there, who I have bought from for years, then went to help the person after me... what kind of service is that? The crazy thing is the man in front of me even apologized for what he did because he was confused by what was going on, and the middle aged women STILL DID NOT HELP ME. I always thought she was a manager or owner... perhaps she doesn't like people with my skin color. Who knows. Finally, after an upsetting amount of time where I was feeling humiliated, a brown haired girl (with absolutely great eye makeup said she would help me). Good to know one decent person works there. I used to go there regularly when I worked in the area and stopped going as often, but I will never go again and have stopped recommending it to others. For the area, there are plenty of bakeries without people like this blonde girl, who would love to have a diverse group clientele who doesn't look just like them :) Avoid this place if you don't want to be treated like a second class citizen. The way I was treated was disgusting and shameful. read more

This bakery is in a plaza I frequent and I said let me pop in because I needed something sweet to deal with a bit of stress I was facing lol. The bakery itself is just what you'd want and expect a bakery to be. Baked goods everywhere with the smell of heaven in the air. The girls at the counters were super helpful and their service was totally 5 stars. It's the actual baked goods that while they looked amazing, the taste wasn't :( I got one of their specialty crumb cakes which I was most hopeful of and it just tasted like a cheese danish with bland crumb topping. The butter cookies with sprinkles on top were also super bland and not sweet at all. I still have 2 onion rolls to try in the morning and if they knock my socks off I'll report back to update the review, but if not, this is it and 3 stars it is. read more

Best Donuts I've had in years. Just traveling through and felt like a donut and stopped (never been here before). Love the Tiramisu donut. So fresh and tasty. I think it was only something like $2. If I were in London, they would charge $6 for this donut. So darn happy I stopped. I will stop again if I'm passing through. read more

They have the best crumb cake hands down! It is 75% crumb and the rest is just delicious cake. Unlike traditional crumb cakes their cake portion is super moist. They have a variety of different flavor and toppings for their cakes and smaller yet delicious crumb buns. read more

Hello Folks, This place is hit or miss. What that means is; no matter what you get its throwing the dice as to whether its fresh or not. My experience is 50/50 to the point I won't go anymore. read more

Bakery items all taste great BUT the Bakery is small and can't hold more Than 3 people. There is a table placed In front of display case making the Area even smaller WHY IS TABLE THERE??. read more

Ordered 2 items for delivery and I made an error in delivery address. I emailed the bakery immediately and asked the to correct my error and they responded that they would make the. correction. I went onto the website to check the order and saw they did make the shipping correction. However, when delivery went out and UPS notified me, the order was sent and delivered to the wrong address. I have emailed the bakery 3x about the order and they have ignored all emails. I am very disappointed in this company, at least respond to the emails. read more

No need to keep traveling up the parkway for crumb cake, stop here! We got the regular crumb and blueberry cheese crumb cake. The cake is moist and the crumbs are heavy. Together they have a great favor and it's not too greasy like some others can be. The blueberry was a huge hit, everyone enjoyed but the middle was a little raw. Probably because the crumbs were so heavy! Either way it was delicious read more

Styertowne Bakery - Blueberry crumb cake - Bakeries Near Me - Clifton, New Jersey

We were customers for their delicious crumb cake until recently. No more. Purchased one and it was almost raw inside. I called and left a message on their vm and let them know and suggested a refund on my cc as we do not live nearby and I could not get there to exchange it. Never heard back, so I went in to explain and was met with zero customer service. "We don't check our vm", was the first response I received. Then I was asked if I took a photo of it to which I responded, "I would have if someone contacted me and asked me to, happily". "Well why didn't you try calling again," I was asked in a sharp tone. "Why should I call back again?" I responded. "You should be checking your voicemail when you have a business, shouldn't you? Again, I was told they don't. Not an excuse or reason. I explained that the cake must have been part of a batch that were all undercooked to which I was told, "no one else called to complain." "How would you know if you don't check your vm?" I said. What kind of customer service is this? Clearly NONE. They were given 2 opportunities to make amends and none were attempted. What would it have taken to apologize and offer up a pastry or cookie in place as I had my son with me, let alone another crumb cake. I thanked them for their 'stellar' customer service and proceeded to leave when one worker shouted out in a nasty tone, "have a nice day". REALLY? As a business owner myself, I will say that WHENEVER a customer might be dissatisfied with something, we go above and beyond to make it right so they'll continue to return and bring friends. And based on experience, it's been working beautifully. These ladies running this business need a lesson in customer etiquette and satisfaction. Oh, and make sure you never leave a message on their vm. "Have a nice day." read more

If you ever see the Polish Cheescake here you need to get and maybe let me know they have it. It's that good. Also the best coffee cake in the area. read more

Read the entire review: I gave 3 stars out of kindness and generosity, because the product in which they produce was absolutely delicious. However, the experience in the customer service was not. If you look at my reviews, you will see that I very rarely give a bad review in hopes that when I do give one or have something to say that might be slightly negative it is taken seriously. . I went in and there was one person in front of me. The place is not busy at all. There are two girls behind the counter today, both with brown hair. One wears glasses. The girl who was not wearing glasses attended to the person in front of me who was excited to be there and was looking at the individual slices of desserts, located at the top part of the counter . I would like to point out that these pastries are not covered. They are simply resting on plates going back in three rows the woman pointed to the one she wanted.In no way she did she attempt to grab it or do anything inappropriate. The attitude of the girl behind the counter was extremely uncalled for and saying loud enough for anyone in the place to hear. "PLEASE DO NOT REACH OVER THE COUNTER". Sometimes it's not what you say, but how you say it and that is absolutely the case here. The girl was obnoxious and made me wanna walk out . The woman she was talking to instantly apologized, and was taken aback by the tone of this child or woman , but pointed out that it was hard for her to describe which one she wanted because there's so many rows of open pastries. It was easier to point. Now it's my turn! Lucky me I don't have that girl as the person helping me. I have the girl with the glasses, so I am hopeful for a better experience. I was wrong ... I asked if they had donuts left and she said they did in the back. when she came out with my donut, I had asked for: " a piece of the cherry cheese crumb cake" I would like to point out that these crumb cakes are lined up right next to each other. Using the verbiage. "A piece" is a natural way to ask for this item. If you go in there, you will agree. her response was. "We don't sell pieces. We sell cakes." Again, another example of it's not what she said it's how she said it. She was extremely rude at this point. I didn't even feel comfortable asking them anymore questions I probably would've bought more items had I not gotten such a cold, rude, know-it-all response. As if I should be fully knowledgeable of the proper way to address their product and the fact that I even dared to ask for "a piece" was such an intolerable act that it required immediate discipline loud enough for anybody in the store to hear. That's how obnoxious this girl was. The one with the glasses who was working the day this post goes up. She packages my items and before she takes my credit card or gives me a total she asks me if I want receipt . That threw me a little bit because again kind of the opposite order of events here I said no, but I would like to know my total. When I pointed it out that normally people tell me my total, take my card, and then asked me if I want a receipt. I realize I made a mistake. I should've just kept my mouth shut and got the heck out of there, but was handed a cold shoulder,rude, Obnoxious, "I don't want to be here today" attitude by a child half my age That should not be working with the public if she doesn't know how to address them properly. Owners cannot be in their business is 24 seven. Owners don't get to see every interaction that occurs with customers from the time they open until the time they close their doors. they have to intrust their businesses to select a few of people that will be the eyes, ears, and representation of what they want their business to stand for. These two girls should not be the face of a bakery that made some of the most delicious crumb cake I have ever eaten. Considering my mother was a professional baker up until she passed away, that is a bold statement from me. If you go through my reviews, you will see a very rarely give a review on a bakery. Maybe 2 others ever. The reason being I feel I'm bias. I feel that nobody will ever live up to the expectations of something that my mother bakes. this place with this crumb cake, I wish my mother was here today so I could share the experience of eating this crumb cake with her, but at the same time, I hope she would've waited in the car so she would not have gone through the rude, obnoxious, childish behavior of the two faces the owner has selected to run the afternoon shift on a Thursday afternoon. Had I had a better experience I would've given it 5 stars. I'm not insinuating that these girls should be fired. But a talking to- YES! None of us were giving anybody a hard time today. Both me and this other customer I didn't know were happy to be there and happy to try their food. read more

the best crumbcake in NJ. light and airy cake, perfect crumbs. doesn't have that doughy underbaked texture. imagine a classic entemann's crumbcake with 3x crumb layer and baked to perfection. they have a ton of other tasty treats as well. my family loved everything we tried. though i will say, their cannoli's are nothing like i've had before so make sure you are aware before buying them! the cream is totally different. read more

We Came for the Coffee Cake... and Left with So Much More! Everything looked absolutely amazing--it was impossible to choose just one thing! And yes, the rumors are true: the coffee cake has that perfect high crumb-to-cake ratio... just the way it should be, heavy crumb. Rich, buttery, and crumbly in all the right ways. Make the trip, it's worth it. read more

The service was amazing. Went in to get a chocolate cake for my wife's birthday and the kind lady helped me with all the options and found the perfect one. It was packaged nicely too. The place wasn't so busy at 3pm on a Friday but it was also raining outside. I usually see this place packed in the mornings. Cost was around $30 for a decent size cake. (Not too big not too small) read more

I've been coming here for years and they're legendary across our family. We'll regularly drive the 50-60 minutes to come here - it's that good! The crumb cake is famous and the best crumb cake ever. It will literally ruin any other crumb cake for you. They do other flavors too and ship worldwide. The crumb cake freezes beautifully. If you need more than one or want a custom crumb cake (yes, they'll do custom flavors), call a few days ahead. The cake is sold whole but you'll go through it quick because it's so good. The other baked goods are always fantastic. The staff is super friendly. They do take credit card now but there's a minimum. Please bring cash. The decor is always lovely inside. read more

Styertowne Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Clifton, New Jersey

This is a great bakery located in Clifton in the Styertowne shopping plaza. It's pretty small and easy to miss but it is definitely worth a stop. I've been here a few times so I've enjoyed a few of the baked goods. The chocolate cake, cookies, donuts, turnovers, and scones are all very good. No complaints about any of them. The slices of clicked chocolate cake are very good. The reason to come here for me is the crumb cake. It's up there with Muellers Bakery in Bay Head for the best I've ever had. It's definitely mostly crumb which I love. I always have them glaze it which makes it even better. If you stop here it's a must try. The employees behind the counter are always great and it's always clean. They do have fancy cakes and rolls which always look good. I've heard the coconut cookies are in great demand but I haven't tried them yet. Very good bakery. read more

The crumb cake. I have to avoid the bakery because the temptation is too strong! My family can devour a whole cake in a day....even though we each claim to have a "sliver"! read more

The blueberry cheese crumb cake is the best and a family favorite. Highly recommend to try it for yourself!

My husband's favorite bakery in NJ. Crumb cakes , danish and donuts are a few of his favorites. Friendly, helpful and enthusiastic describe the women behind the counter. Don't come hungry like my husband did or you can go home with so many sweets. Just remember to spend 20 bucks if you need to use a credit card. read more

I wanted to get black forest cake for a friend's bday and found this bakery.. loved the reviews and called them.. one of the best bakeries ever they were so sweet in answering all my questions their 7 inch cake was 30$ and was soo good.. super soft and fresh. Will be visiting this place often. Only issue was they didn't have a disposable knife for cake and we really had a hard time finding one to cut the cake. I can easily see myself being a regular here and want to try other products as well. read more

When I first met my wife, she told me that Styertowne had the best crumb buns she ever had. Since I lived in Montclair at the time, it was an easy ride to test them out. Wow...she wasn't kidding! I've known great bakeries in NYC and LI, but these crumb buns were another level. Now, even though I'm out in Morris County, we still make sure we stop at Styertowne any time we're on Rt 3 heading back home from Manhattan. If you're around Clifton, this place is a must go to. Oh and while the crumb buns are the star, everything else here is fantastic as well! read more

Best cheese coffee cake hands down. Excellent cream cheese dough cookies. Great sprinkle cookies.

Killer crumb cake. I grew up eating B&W's but after having Styertowne's german style crumb cake, this is the one not to miss. Chewy cake base and the large chunky deep crumb of your wildest dreams. read more

Enjoy their crumb cake, the cake was a wonderful consistency as well as the crumbs on top. My only complaint is that the crumb topping does overpower the cake. It is 75% crumb topping, and while it is still delicious I prefer a balance to the product. Despite this, I still end up purchasing their crumb cake because of how good it is. On the bright side, the bakery smells amazing once you walk in! And it was decorated well for the holidays. I recommend people to try this place. read more

Such a great assortment of pastries, cookies, cakes and breads. They're known for their crumb cake, but I especially like their NY cheesecake. The spinach and ricotta roll was so fresh and had that homemade taste. I also tried the lemon poppy muffin which was just ok. I liked how it wasn't too sweet, but it was kinda dry. They are cash only!! read more

good costumer serves. the lady's are super nice and patient. on top of that the 2 cheesecake that I ordered where very good

My family and neighbors have come here for years. NO MORE. Their highly rated??? crumb cake was raw inside (like that one review with the photo that showed a rolled up dough ball, or I should say "fish bait"!) and the topping was a mushy unbaked mess (not at all crumbly). Also, the small triangular cookies (like the cream cheese ones my mom used to make) had NO flavor, NO butter AND dried out after 2 days to the hardness of a stone that'll break your teeth if you bite into them! Lastly, the blonde middle-aged woman (owner, manager? who has been there forever) is the rudest person and needs retraining on customer service. MY NEW FIND IS A GEM - Francesca's on Market St Clifton = higher quality and very reasonably priced! Do yourself a favor and go there instead! http://francescasbakery.com/index.html read more

Not sure how I haven't discovered this little gem before since it's so close to my house but glad I finally did!! I was in charge of picking up a Chocolate Cake for one of my co-workers birthday so I immediately searched YELP to see if I can find a bakery close to me and found Styertowne Bakery! It's located in a strip mall so there is plenty of parking and once you enter, you already know you're in for a treat. I must be admit I am not into sweets but everything looked really good and freshly made. The girl there recommended their Chocolate Mousse Cake as she said it was not overly sweet and super light. Well her recommendation was SPOT ON because my co-workers could not stop raving about this cake!! The mousse was light and not sure if there was any cake left for the birthday girl to take home hahahah It was that good! They also do Holiday Cookies so I am definitely returning to pick some up to include with my gifts! read more

purchased two "mini cakes"....both were disappointing, to say the least. The German Chocolate cake had so much coconut frosting on the top that there was no chocolate taste in a slice of cake. The coconut overwhelmed everything. And the 'cake' part was dry. Also, too much frosting in general. The carrot cake....also lacking. So much icing! And it was plain sugary icing.....not the 'cream cheese' icing that is normally used on a carrot cake. This cake was less 'dry', but again, the icing overwhelmed the cake. I've purchased doughnuts at this bakery and enjoyed them. These two cakes, which I brought to dinner with friends, were disasters. And unenjoyable. They look gorgeous.....but 90% of the item is frosting and decorations. The actual 'cake' is dry and no match to the amount of sugary icing. read more

While we grew up in Clifton and spend many hours in Styertowne and Rowe Manse, we did but cakes and donuts from this bakery. But it has been a long time and when we visited last weekend we tried their Cheese Raspberry danish. Wow . It was both delicious and filling. We will definitely go back when in the area. We sat in our car and ate them and to see the foot traffic in and out, I'm convinced they have very loyal following. Nicely done! read more

I went in there last week, and right off the bat, the woman behind the counter told me that you have to spend $20 to use a credit card. I said I wasn't spending $20. And for sure, after that crack, I sure wasn't. What business hikes up a credit card requirement to $20? I chose some items, and the girl was very nice, but the owner, a frowzy looking redhead with a rough face, was very curt. I don't need this when I'm a paying customer. The baked items were ok but not deserving of all the hype. I will never go back there. Here's a tip...if you want crumbcake, go to B&W in Hackensack. Much better and no attitude. read more
