Cinnamon roll
Natty C.

Love this cafe and their cinnamon buns. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a lot of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And [[HIGHLIGHT]]this location is a lot less busy than Hoboken.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Blueberry Pie Matcha
Reeka C.

I am not a matcha person...never have been. But The Hive had me completely reconsidering my stance with their Blueberry Pie Matcha. Got it iced and honestly? It was delicious. The blueberry flavor is sweet and fruity in a way that completely takes the edge off the earthiness that usually turns me away from matcha. It tastes exactly like what it's named after dessert in a cup, but make it a drink. If you've been on the fence about matcha, this is your sign to just try it. The Hive will convert you.

Chocolate Croissant

This has been our go-to coffee shop for the last year or two! However, my last visit made me compelled to write this review. The quality has gone downhill...chocolate croissant felt day-old and dry. Originally their decaf coffee had 5 shots but they've reduced that too. The cinnamon rolls are starting to get too commercial and they are selling them frozen now. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Still ambiance is nice, but I hope they try to keep their quality![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Came back here to try their coffee drinks and they were delicious: French toast chai latte - my favorite of the two drinks I got. Lots of cinnamon and spices, and not too sweet Salted caramel latte - the saltiness is nice but it was slightly too sweet for me Almond croissant - decent! not the best I've had but still pretty good S'mores cookie- the best cookie in JC imo. On par with levain Barista is always so kind and sweet.

I visit the Hoboken location quite often but I was in the area and decided to drop in for a matcha. The girls are so welcoming and friendly, made my drink perfectly (a little sweet with the seasonal apple caramel butter syrup) and it was delicious! The cold brew with house made cold foam and lavender oat latte are a few other favorites of mine here. So happy they opened up another location for people to experience this gem of a business. Cinnamon rolls are worth it. Original is delicious but every month they've been coming out with different flavors (maple bacon, blueberry pancake, cannoli, crumb cake, etc.). My son's favorite are the cookies. They also have a bunch of other pastries and goodies, daily. They have seasonal drinks too that are always a hit! (Fall, winter, Valentine's Day specials, spring and summer). [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you're a mom with a younger child/toddler, they have a cute play space you can have your child play in for $5. Perfect meet up for small play dates - get your coffee/tea and have the kids play together.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Popular coffee shop with unique latte flavors and delicious fresh cinnamon rolls on weekends

House-Made Classic Cinnamon Roll
DJ W.

I finally got to try The Hives Cinnamon Rolls. They're worth the hype. They're delicious, and the Pink Palmer hibiscus and lemonade are so refreshing. It's worth checking out.

Had a quick stop to grab black coffee, it was good and strong to my liking. Did not get to try their food.

We arrived at 8:30 AM to find them well stocked on cinnamon rolls and nearly all the seating available.

DDL is elite. They have it all. Fantastic pastries, cakes and sandwiches. Great coffees. Spacious,…read moreclean and cozy seating. Friendly and helpful staff. Super affordable prices. I've never eaten anything that I didn't like. My faves are: milhojas, breakfast croissant sandwich, and any and every cake with dulce de leche filling. I only tiny, minuscule complaint I have about this place is the lack of signage for the pastries and cakes. It would be nice to know what I'm looking at without having the ask. Absolutely zero gatekeeping here. Please everyone keep patronizing this establishment. I need this place to continue to exist in my hood.

The cake here is very good! Super moist, and the frosting is light and fluffy when ordered fresh…read more Unfortunately the 2 cupcakes I got, both alfajores and the chocolate covered one too were stale, like super hard and dry. So get anything fresh, like made to order cakes or things you see come out right when you're there. Otherwise you run the risk of getting old stuff, which sucks that they don't manage that at all. On a Sunday afternoon lines moved quickly and we were able to find seats. This is a cute cafe that offers plenty of savory items and lunches, plus drinks like matcha, cakes, pastries and cookies. There is also a bathroom! The women behind the counter were all nice and patient with my questions, they also kept the line moving and were quick. I had high hopes for the Alfajores as this is an Argentinian bakery but unfortunately the ones given to me were stale. The cookie was very hard. Also the Dulce de leche was too sweet and burnt tasting to me. I also got a chocolate covered one and the cookie in that was also hard and dry. The strawberry croissant was amazing. Never had anything like that before. Not too sweet and very flaky. It has a ribbon of red on the outside which gives it a unique look. I would love to come back and try savory items. I'll continue to stick with the cakes and croissants for desert and make sure it's fresh!
