We got the banana cinnamon bun and the regular cinnamon bun. I wasn't sure it would live up to the hype but it was pretty good. Not sure I would wait 25 minutes again but if I am only judging the product it was delicious. The icing isn't too sweet and the cinnamon flavor is lovely. They are best eaten hot obviously. Worth it to check out! read more

**The Hive: A Cinnamon Bun Heaven in Hoboken** I finally made the early morning trek to The Hive in Hoboken to try their famous cinnamon buns. The experience of getting there early and standing in line for the first batch was totally worth it. I managed to snag their classic original bun and the monthly special: the coffee crumble bun. While I was there, I also treated myself to their cereal milk latte. **The Buns:** **Original Cinnamon Bun:** Compared to other buns I've had, The Hive's cinnamon bun had the most divine texture. It was impossibly fluffy, melted in my mouth, and was served warm. The original frosting was delicious, but I still prefer the frosting from Red Gate. A combination of Red Gate frosting with The Hive's bun would be a match made in heaven. **Blueberry Pancake Frosting:** This frosting is a masterpiece. Its sweet, tangy blueberry flavor perfectly complements the warm, fluffy bun. This is a must-try, and I'm definitely going back this month to indulge in more. **Coffee Crumble Bun:** This bun had the same amazing, pillowy base with a crunchy crumble topping but no frosting. I adored the crumble, but I think it would be even better with frosting--or the dip from their collab with Pop Up Bagels. The bun itself wasn't dry at all; it was wonderfully moist and tender. **The Drinks:** **Cereal Milk Latte:** This intriguing concoction combines the nostalgic taste of cereal milk with a latte. While it was good overall, I couldn't quite taste the distinct cereal flavor I was expecting. It felt more like a regular latte with a slight hint of sweetness. Still, it was a comforting and tasty drink to accompany the buns. **Fun Facts:** Did you know that The Hive offers monthly flavors for their cinnamon buns? It adds an element of excitement and surprise for returning customers like myself. Additionally, these delightful buns are only sold Friday through Sunday, and they usually sell out before noon due to their immense popularity. **Atmosphere and Amenities:** Beyond the delectable treats, The Hive boasts a gorgeous ambiance. With both indoor and outdoor seating options, it's the perfect spot to enjoy your buns in any weather. Plus, for families, there's a pay-for-play area for kids, making it a delightful destination for the whole family. **Overall Impression:** To sum it up: Would I come here every month to try their different cinnamon buns? Absolutely! I would happily wake up at 4 AM to make the journey at least once a month to savor their delicious creations. read more

My friend and I came here to try their home made cinnamon rolls, and going in, we knew we were going to have to get there early. We arrived around 8:30am on Saturday and there was a line out the door, but it moved quickly. We ordered two cinnamon rolls, a chai and their cereal milk latte. The space itself is super cute with a good amount of seating, a large and very clean restroom and a children's play area in the back. They also have merch and other home goods for sale. If you ever find yourself in Hoboken, this is a must go to place! read more

Updating my review since I finally got one fresh and piping hot. We were picking my friend up for a road trip down to DC and decided to meet at The Hive. I got on the line at around 7:55am and there were maybe 13 people in front of me - on a Saturday. We picked up 3 cinnamon buns and I had an iced coffee. Coffee was great and I love that milk mixins' are behind the counter and you can do it yourself. The cinnamon buns are so good fresh. Truly, a cold cinnamon bun does not do it any justice. It was so good and well worth the wait. I stopped by on our return trip dropping off our friend and picked up another coffee and a brownie cookie. The cookie was so soft and moist! Staff are also just so nice and truly a joy. read more

Wanted something with a view, so I found this cue spot called the HIVE and it was buzzing a few minutes after we got here! We were a bit sad that their cinnamon bun but it was sold out! So it must be tasty , we ended up getting a s'mores cookie , blue berry scone and my s'mores square Which was sooo Tasty! We will come back and enjoy the vibe, there is a spot for small kids to play and Mitch to but you should come by and enjoy! We also got a hot chocolate with whip cream and a black coffee and a mocha all Tasty! read more

Small little neighborhood coffee shop. Quiet workspace with 5 or so tables for two inside and a small counter. Another 5 tables out on the patio. It's is very quiet. A low energy space. At least it was mid week, mid morning when I was there. I had a delicious salted Carmel latte. I have no special instructions but it was just the right sweet and salty. It was good. Had a scone from their pastry cabinet and it was all great. I don't think this is a destination but they do a great job and it's a good coffee. What else do you need? Would I come back? Sure. Free Wi-Fi if you are into that sort of thing. read more

This place is so cute!! I have only been here once (word of the cinnamon rolls drew me in), but I will absolutely be back! The atmosphere, food, and service is all top notch. Check it out! read more

The cinny's are hyped up no doubt so I went it with mid expectations and semi-expecting to be disappointed since they have become so popular. But boy was I impressed! They mastered the cinnamon roll from the texture to the flavor. The cinnamon roll thankfully was not dry at all but also not too drenched. I loved the cream cheese frosting vs sugar frosting. The frosting was also not overwhelming and the roll itself was not overly sweet. I also had the cereal milk latte and thought it was the perfect mix of coffee and sweetness. Not overly sweet and did have a more potent coffee flavor, which I prefer. Overall, 10/10 and would come back without question. read more

We are big fans of The Hive! I must have ordered their lucky charms matcha almost every week while they had the special running. Their baked goods are so dang good. We have tried their chocolate chip cookies and the s'more's brownie/blondie - it is SLAMMING! Their coconut cold brew is so smooth. My husband usually always orders the salted caramel latte enjoys it. read more

great location and amazing menu! Fun and high.vibration cafe for both food.and drinks!

$7for a small iced oat milk PSL. Was warm and very sweet, lacked any espresso flavor. Very cute place. Clean. Friendly staff. Busy for mid day on a Friday. Small candle was $38. Parking may be difficult in the area. Wanted to try their cinnamon buns but was told they are only sold Saturday/Sunday and usually sell out by 9/930AM. read more

Looking for a cozy spot where moms can chill with their little ones? Look no further than The Hive! It's a haven for moms, opening early with stroller parking and a play area for kiddos. My 6-month-old daughter and I love the vibe, and we're counting down the days until she can join in the fun. The coffee is divine, and don't get me started on those pastries--yum! Still haven't snagged a cinnamon roll, but you bet I'll be back to give it a taste and update my review! read more

Really good coffee and they give teacher discount which is nice. I also like there cinnamon bun specials

Super cute coffee shop! Love that it's so diverse and open to kids, dogs, moms, dads, LGBTQ, working people, dates, etc you name it. They even have a sign explicitly saying this. The location is so friendly and the employees were kind to give me recommendations. The chocolate brownie battery cookie is THICK! I HAD to try one of their bakery items and it didn't disappoint. I probably could have shared it with someone or brought some home but instead I ate it all. Somehow the chocolate was still as if it just came out of the oven. Great quality. The cozy chai with oat milk was lovely. The vanilla spice syrup is the perfect fall drink. I definitely will be back and support them! They also have a lot of seating area and a kid friendly play zone. read more

I tried the highly recommended chocolate-covered strawberry cold brew with oat milk. The chocolate flavor was subtle, allowing the coffee taste to shine through. However, I wish the strawberry flavor was more prominent, as it was only in the cold foam. A syrup or puree might have captured the name better. The seating area was interesting--spacious but with minimal, cramped seating so I wasn't able to stay too long. The staff was very welcoming and answered all my questions about Hoboken since I'm not a local. Next time, I'll definitely try their Spring Specials! They sounded delicious but need more promotion, as I only noticed the tiny sign near the cashier after I got my drink. Overall, worth a visit! read more

I ordered Hive's ready-to-bake cinnamon rolls on Goldbelly dot com. Wow - six huge cinn rolls - mine arrived in NC thawed and cold with a big tub of cream cheese frosting - easy directions just proof for a hour in a warm oven then bake. I use a digital thermometer and baked to 195-200 degrees. Sooooo delicious! Deeeeeelicious! Did I mention how huge and yummy they are?!? The absolute best cinn rolls I ever ate. (I froze leftover rolls that same day and they tasted fab after thawing and gently warming.) read more

Made a pit stop here while traveling through the area and it was delightful! The drinks and bakery were both delicious! Service was great too - everyone was very friendly. It's a very cute space as well. We sat outside (it was summer time, I'm just slow to review!) for a while and played cards while having our snack - it was a delightful little spot and reprieve. read more

Cute spot, stopped by (early) on a freezing Sunday morning at 8:30am to grab lattes and a cinnamon bun- staff was friendly and space is very inviting! They have a child play area which you pay for which seems like a fun rainy day activity? I don't have kids but I do love the concept. Along with the newly famous cinnamon bun, they also have assorted muffin, croissants, and cookies. The cinnamon bun was delicious, perfectly gooey and plenty of cream cheese icing. Yum!! Our lattes were ok- for 2 coffee latte/2 cinnamon bun total was $26. It wasn't too busy but along with a few other customers we all had to wait 15/20min for our orders. yikes. Not sure if the cinnamon buns are made to order? Hoping they can get a faster plan in place soon- overall would recommend for a cinnamon bun!! read more

The cutest coffee shop in town! Popped in with a few friends for a post-gym coffee last weekend and finally understand why everyone's raving about The Hive! My coffee order is boring - drip coffee, plain and simple - but their house blend is smooth and delicious. The overall aesthetic is simple yet cheery. It's super clean inside, very spacious, well lit, and just adorable. Along with typical coffee shop snacks for sale, they also have gifts and accessories on display. The large kids play area is an added bonus that I haven't seen before. Highly recommend this coffee shop! read more

Nice addition to this part of Hoboken! Super cute space. Bright, open and airy with lots of room. Playroom for the kiddos. Bravo to the owners on the design. Standard menu with a few twists (the Coco Loco Cold Brew - or whatever it's called - was very good). Good basic cold brew with a selection of serve-yourself milks off to the side. Friendly staff, welcoming location, great part of town. What's not to like? read more

Oh my goodness! This has got to be one of the most aesthetically pleasing, kid friendly, dog friendly place. And the coffee is amazingly good! This was my favorite spot of the day. First off, I love the interior decor of the place. From the walls to the tables and chairs, the muted color palate with modern touches was so welcoming and calming. The coffee was delicious and right up there with higher end coffee shops. The staff was friendly and helpful when ordering. The employees are very good about cleaning and wiping tables and chairs after patrons. I ordered the cappuccino which was delicious and comforting on a cold day. We also ordered: pumpkin latte, chai tea, cereal latte, mocha latte. Everyone enjoyed their drinks. So for the kiddos, they have a play area and stroller parking. Restroom is kid friendly as well. For the pooches, while welcome inside when owners are ordering, they must take their purchases to go. Great place to work as the environment is well lit and somewhat on the quiet side. This is definitely on my place to stop list when I'm back in Hoboken. read more

The cinnamon rolls were worth the wait. I was told about this place while my son took his SAT at the local high school. Fun place!

There's nothing wrong with selling out of a product in high demand, however, what's not acceptable is telling people that you're sold out for 30 minutes (including a pregnant woman) only to sell an "extra" cinnamon roll on the side. I was able to purchase what was supposedly the last cinnamon roll. I was obviously limited to one since that's all they had. After waiting for about 35 minutes inside and seeing dozens of people told that they were all out, I witnessed the manager sell someone an extra cinnamon roll that was miscalculated in their total. It's a bad look for a business. Also, maybe try not to be so obvious about it next time. read more

Fantastic latte to grab when walking on a nice fall day in the neighborhood. People were nice. Definitely coming again

Super friendly owner and staff. The cold brew is delicious. The cinnamon rolls have to be ordered at least a day ahead of time since they have to prove. I guess they're homemade! Would have loved to try them. I know to order ahead next time. read more

This review is for their Jersey City location but I can't find their Yelp page. AMAZING coffees (I got the lucky charms matcha, a summer seasonal drink called the Frenchie and the cereal milk). I also got this DELISH dessert bar- it has marshmallow on top and a bunch of layers in between, unsure what it's called but SO SO good! I did miss the cinny rolls :( but I'm sure those are well worth the wait if you get there early on a weekend. The girl who took my order was the sweetest human and I really enjoyed visiting this shop. I'm from CA but when I come back to Jersey, I will be coming here every time for my coffee and sweet treats. Also, it's the CUTEST! In the cutest neighborhood too. 10/10 read more

Um....no words to express how delicious the Cinny Bun is!!! Yum! Go here just to have the cinny bun. They only offer it on weekends and once it runs out that's it for the day! Worth the wait in line! read more

I went February 10th, Friday morning, with a friend. I was my first time there and I barely got a hello and welcoming to the coffee shop . This gentleman at the register just told "hi guys " and two second we were there he was rushing us . No conversation if this was our first time there. He simply asked us " you guys know what you want " I believe there wasn't any a line behind us, we felt rushed and just rude his tone. I wasn't comfortable on asking him about the special but he just pointed at the sign in the front of the register. I won't be recommending this coffee shop to my friends and family. I'll just stick to other coffee shop in the neighborhood , JC/Hoboken. read more

Enjoyed our coffees very much from this place. Service was quick and friendly. What I liked the most from here was that you're able to pour your own oat milk. I've been to over a dozen different coffee shops and this is the first place I've seen with that. They also have the simple syrup out for you to do yourself. I think that's awesome because I've ordered coffee from other places and they never give enough oat milk. read more

After a long Friday night of giving Uber rides and having my last Ride walk into my car with a machete. Yes a machete. It was a gift that a family member had just given him from Puerto Rico but I didn't know that so I was scared and shaking after dropped off the passenger. I stopped by this coffee shop which was pretty early and it had not open yet but the kind shop owner opened the door for me and let me in. I had told her what had just happened to me and she was very sympathetic. She made me a great caramel latte and I had the most delicious croissant ever. Thank you so much for your kindness. The world needs more people like you. read more

This place is everything!!! We are so excited to welcome this wonderful little coffee and bespoke retail gem to the neighborhood. The owners are two wonderful mothers, and the space is just gorgeous inside and out! They have a nice coffee/tea list (long enough with enough choices but not so many to make your head spin), they have wonderful pastries and my husband and I cannot WAIT for the fresh cinnamon rolls!!!!!! Oh, and did I mention the super cute curated retail section of natural products for mom and Bebe, and the play room in the back? Sure a lot of moms, parents, and all of the neighbors alike will be happy to have this friendly neighborhood coffee shop uptown. They officially open tomorrow (11/9) at 7am and we're doing a soft opening this weekend for friends and family (that's what the pictures are from)! Please support them! read more

The sweet owners of the Hive are committed to making every customer feel special and welcomed. This shop is such a great addition to Hoboken! Coffee options are amazing, and I will definitely miss the Winter spiced cold brew in the warmer months! The hot chocolate bombs look incredible but are in such high demand so definitely keep an eye on their instagram for a heads-up on the next drop. If you go in the morning, they have typical breakfast pastries like scones and croissants (delicious almond croissant!). If you go in the afternoon, you must get a confetti cookie! The whole aesthetic is amazing and beautiful. I don't have kids, but I know that young families must love having a safe and sanitized place for kids to play--especially after months in lock down. read more
