Came here for a quick sweet treat and had a great experience thanks to the staff! They let me bring my dog inside which was very kind and we just stayed seated after ordering in a corner politely, minding our own business. Space was cute - definitely gave off cafe vibes. There weren't many other customers and while they were out of an ingredient I wanted, the taste of the pudding I got was super satisfying and delicious. Overall, solid dessert spot and I love the customizations! read more

I was invited to a lunch recently, and was in a pinch to get a sweet treat as a token of appreciation. This place popped up on my map and as a banana pudding enthusiast I absolutely had to come check it out. It was a little annoying that they had already run out of party trays and so I had to settle for getting 2 pints instead. The girls at the register were super friendly though, and tried everything to make the packaging look super cute and presentable. The ube banana pudding is so unique and to die for. The regular banana pudding is also really really good. Overall, I also really like the aesthetic of this place, you could totally sit here and enjoy your dessert. My friends absolutely devoured both the puddings I got, and they were a total hit. If you are in JC, this has to be your go to dessert spot. read more

Walking around this part of Jersey City near Communipaw always reminds me of my favorite film, Ghost Dog, which was filmed nearby. Instead of a Francophone ice cream truck driver, in real life this neighborhood hosts Baonanas, a banana pudding shop which serves a wide variety of flavors in the fashion of an ice cream parlor. I appreciate that Baonanas is rooted in the surrounding long-standing Filipino community of McGinley Square. The two natural orders on a first visit were of course the classic and the ube, both of which were delicious. The ube flavor was subtle and not overpowering at all. And obviously, it's better than Magnolia's. read more

I saw this place on YouTube! I realized it was close by and wanted to check it out! They are homemade banana pudding! There's seating indoors but they also have a cute outdoor set up! Service is good and they offer samples There's the OG and then added other flavors. Additionally they are known for their iced lattes. We got the ube latte and it was pretty good! They are pricey but worth getting a scoop! $6 per single scoop! read more

Baonanas is a really unique, founded-in-Jersey City dessert spot. It is set up like a fro-yo or ice cream line where you can pick your size and flavor, then add toppings. The banana flavor is *really* strong, even when mixed with other flavors. There were 2-3 dairy free options as well. I also got the "Tito Arnold Palmer" which was iced tea mixed with calamansi, a really tart citrus fruit. Delicious and less than $5 for a really large cup! There's chairs and tables inside and out, or you can take it to go. read more

A bread pudding dessert place so interesting! Loved this place, tried the OG with vanilla wafers. Definitely creamy and delicious yet not too sweet of a treat. I wanted to try the drinks and food. Service was exceptional, the server offered to open the back patio up and turn on the lights for us too. Super cute little shop you should check out soon, wish I had one in Arizona. read more

Incredible banana pudding! I really recommend coming here and trying their flavors. My personal favorites were cookies and cream and the rose lychee. The banana pudding is decadent and very creamy. The rose lychee is a must try if you're a lychee martini lover like me. The employees are all super nice and the overall cafe is cute too. It has a little game board section and is a good place to hang out or catch up with a friend. They also have coffee. read more

Omg so yum! My fav is the OG and rose lychee. Tbh it's a bit sweeter for my taste but the lychee flavor was probably my favorite because it wasn't insanely sweet. However I should've known this because this is a Filipino owned shop and Filipino desserts are a bit more on the sweeter side in my opinion. It's a very cute place. Very good service and really unique banana pudding flavors. read more

Serendipitously parked in front, and we're so glad we did! Banana pudding meets asian flavors. Bright space with plenty of seating to get work done or play w one of their fun board games. Great service, too. Will try their drinks next time -- Ordered: Buko Pandan and Ube banana pudding read more

U-Bae I'm in love! For AT LEAST 8 years, the ONLY BananaPudding that had my heart has been Magnolia Bakery. I've even tried ONE that came close but I was just gaslit by their use of Pepperidge Farm Chess Cookies. But today, [[write it down in your calendar]] I've found THE ONE to surpass them all. Baonanas is IT!! Light, smooth, chunky, and oh, so good! Not too sweet but all the flavor was there. Also had an Ube Cloud Latte which my fussy Mom LOVED. They customed the drink to how she wanted it and she still can't stop talking about how good it is. The staff was incredibly patient with us and so personable. The place is cute. A light in an up & coming neighborhood. So much to choose from. So many unique flavors. I WILL be back! read more

I would give it a 3.5, but that's not an option. It was good pudding, not great. I wouldn't go out of my way to get it, but if I'm in the neighborhood and looking for some, I'd probably grab a small half-pint. read more

Ordered this on DoorDash and got it delivered. It came much quicker than expected and was DELICIOUS! Will be ordering again. We got the strawberry banana pudding with added fresh strawberries - 10/10 the whipped cream in the banana pudding is super light and overall is not too heavy. A perfect treat! read more

This is a cute place to sit and read a book and have something sweet to eat. Honestly, if two people were to go on a dessert date I'd say this is a nice place to start to get to know one another over some banana pudding. It's clean! It is clean and cozy. Maybe there are about 4/5 tables there where people can sit. It's small but not dumb tiny. The two people behind the register were soo kind and generous. I got some fresh OG banana pudding of which they had a sign telling you it's fresh and they recommend waiting 24 hours for the cookies to soften. Lucky for me that I don't like soft or mushy cookies so I was right on time! The pudding is a nice whipped pudding. Not thick whipped though. And not runny. But whipped. It was good! I'm gona go here again. I also got the rose strawberry pudding I think it's called, and that was a flavor I never had before. I'll get this in a bigger size next time I go back. I thoroughly enjoyed this here. Highly recommend. read more

My eyes and heart opened when I tasted a flavor different from the original banana Nila wafer banana pudding that I've been exposed to when I had baonanas ! We got a couple pints which can be split into 2 flavors! The Ube pudding is most definitely is my fav flavor yet! We did try matcha Oreo and cookie butter( very slightly different from the original) there was one man serving who was filling a large order for a lady who was there before us, he took a bit of time but it was definitely worth the wait! I also did get the calamansi lemonade that was refreshing ! I wish this was available in north Carolina too I terribly miss the flavor in my mouth! read more

Ordered: Create Your Own Half Pint (~$9): Matcha Oreo & Ubenanas Create Your Own Half Pint (~$9): Blueberry Cheesecake & Lychee Rose Aya's take: If you know me, you know I love banana-flavored desserts and was happy to be back at Baonanas for more! It was my birthday month and I love that you can get a free pint of baonanas if you're a rewards member! Let's get right to the pudding! The Ubenanas & Matcha Oreo is a divine combination! The Matcha Oreo one is fluffy with soft Oreo cookies and a matcha mousse, combined with the lightly sweet ube with layers of fresh banana - it's an unbeatable combination. The Blueberry Cheesecake & Lychee Rose was good but a bit fruitier and I found some of the flavors to clash. The Blueberry Cheesecake had a blueberry mousse with blueberry jam, graham crackers, and fresh blueberries and bananas; there was quite a bit of graham cracker filling which took away from the other flavors. The Lychee Rose was super unique and I actually enjoyed the essence of lychee & rose in the mousse along with the fresh strawberries. I would love this in a drink form lol. The worker helping us was incredibly sweet and friendly. Definitely worth stopping by! read more

absolutely my favorite dessert place. their pudding is always so incredibly flavorful and easily melts in your mouth! it always has a good ratio of banana and cake, and is never too sweet. they also provide a select few complimentary toppings, which most dessert places don't offer! staff is also always so eager to provide samples and recommendations, so I never feel like a bother when I can't decide on what to get. I had the french toast and smores flavors, and they paired so well together! the French toast had a strong cinnamon flavor, which I absolutely loved. the s'mores was very decadent. this location is unfortunately a 20 min walk from the PATH, so Im not likely to come back anytime soon as I live in new york. however, the space is so cute, with boardgames and a backyard patio. I wish they reopened the new york location, but this was worth the journey! read more

Baonanas - Desserts Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

I booked Baonanas for my wedding in April 2026, so I haven't actually gotten to have the service that I paid for, but since January they have completely ignored every single email I have sent since January 17, 2026. When I first emailed it was to confirm my final payment amount. Then when the payment was due on January 21, 2026, I emailed again asking to confirm if you received my payment. Every business I have worked with during my wedding has confirmed payment within 24-48 hrs, even Baonanas confirmed my first payment within that timeframe so this was incredibly odd. Then, only to see why I haven't gotten any response- they're closed??? No automatic emails to say " we're closed, we'll be back on___", phone line DEAD, Instagram DM unread/no response. I'm so thankful my bank gave me back my money for the final payment but now I am struggling to get in contact without ANYONE at your company to receive a refund for the first one because I absolutely do not trust your business now after they way you have completely neglected me as your client. You are breaking contract and owe me back my first deposit. It is utterly despicable to not have a way to contact your clients and let them know of your shut down. It will be 1 MONTH of no response this Sunday. I'm so disappointed in this company especially because I was a big fan and loved your banana pudding. I'm am even more horrified to learn that you also did this to another person according to your Google reviews- you should be ASHAMED. You took $900+ dollars from me and that other couple. AND your contract termination states that you would owe me all my money back + $200 if you cancelled. You should all be ashamed by your business practices, I do not care if your business is failing- you need to do right by your clients that you have a CONTRACT with and fulfill it or cancel it appropriately- NOT RUN AWAY WITH OUR MONEY. You are no better than a thief or a scammer by doing what you have done! You deserve -10000000 stars read more

I tasted this banana pudding today and couldn't believe how delicious it was. It was even better than Magnolia's which I didn't think was possible. I tried three flavors today- the classic which was my favorite, the coquito flavor which was delicious and even had flakes of coconut in it and finally the cookies and cream which was also divine. I'm ashamed to say how many servings I had because I totally went back for a second round. This recipe is delicious! Great job to the owners! read more

Love Baonanas! This place is a JC icon. They serve a selection of mainstays and also rotating and seasonal flavors. I love the variety. One of my favorite seasonal flavors is their cornbread pudding (sweet & salty!) and the apple cider. For their mainstay flavor, the strawberry banana pudding is my go-to. Other great flavors are the OG and ubenanas. I think their buko pandan has gotten even better when I last tried it, the pandan flavor really comes through now and it's now another one of my faves. I take friends from out of town here and have also brought their patty trays to potlucks. When in store, you get to try as many samples as you like before choosing your flavor and the staff members are always so friendly and accommodating. I appreciate that! read more

Funny I'm leaving this as the 100th review lol. Anyways, this place is great. I booked an Airbnb nearby and this was the one spot I went to for a majority of my stay. I had the honey bear and I believe the butter something? And this was amazing, I'm not sure I've ever had any kind of banana pudding that was the same, but this was a cross between ice cream and pudding. The service was great, and I believe they had a sign saying it was for college, so it was great to know that I was supporting a local business. Would definitely stop by if I were ever in Jersey City again! read more

A banana pudding dessert shop is such a good idea! The texture and flavors were so on point, and the banana bear design is so cute! We almost didn't get to try this place, but I'm so glad things worked out! I would come by often if I lived in this area. read more

My favorite banana pudding/dessert place in NJ since they only had a cart in Williamsburg haha

Ordered their coquito banana pudding, just the puff baomb, and a puff baomb with strawberry baonanas for delivery. Delivery arrived on time. It was all chilled. We had the puff first. It is lightly sweet and fluffy. We like that it's not heavy. It's $3. Wouldn't get it by itself again though after tasting it with the baonanas! Yummmm The coquito banana pudding is delicious!! We got the half pint. Like a coquito with bananas! Perfectly made. Excellent flavor. Just the right amount of cinnamon. Worth the $8.95! Soo good! Definitely recommend. The puff baomb with strawberry baonanas was our favorite of the three. It's $7 and sooo delicious. It's the puff with their fresh strawberries and banana pudding. Wow! Amazing!! Highly recommend. Will definitely order that again!! :) so good! read more

STAY AWAY!! WORKERS ARE RUDE!! I ordered Baonanas on 5/23/2025 on UberEats using their Buy 1 Get 1 free promo. When we received the order, there was only 1 pint in the bag rather than the 2 we expected as per the promo. Right after this, I called Baonanas at 6:34PM to inform them that they only packed one. The lady who answered the phone blamed us rather than taking accountability that they only packed one. Her service was HORRENDOUS. She yelled at me and hung up the phone using the excuse that she had other people to attend to. What about the customers (us) that purchased from you?? Who treats their customers like that?? I would be ASHAMED and EMBARRASSED if I found out one of my employees gave such HORRIBLE SERVICE. I've never received such bad treatment at any establishment. What is the point of advertising a BOGO offer and not provide the full order? Seems like a scam to me!! read more

Came here on a Friday afternoon. I was in the area and decided to finally try this out since I live 50 min away. Street parking is very hard to find here. I entered the establishment and it was nice and clean. The worker was very friendly and made me try as many flavors as I wanted. I got the ube, regular, and Oreo banana pudding. All were great and I highly recommend. read more

My friend took me to this small business, and I found it very cute! Before getting the ube flavored banana pudding, I tried the buko pandan. Tbh, the coconut flavor and banana flavor didn't really sit well with me. Personally, I went with the classic and got the ube. The ube flavor was very apparent and tasted more like regular banana pudding. I think the ube "flavor" was more just to color the pudding. I also tried the melon juice and that also was kinda lackluster in taste. I felt like it was very watered down with strips of cantaloupe. Either than that, I enjoyed this business for the OG ube banana pudding and would probably stick with that if i we're to come back! read more

Got the original banana pudding, spiced pumpkin cheesecake, and spiced apple cider. As a lover of anything apple, the spiced apple cider was my favorite! It was so creamy and reminiscent of an apple cider drink. Perfect for the fall season :) The original is a classic and you can never go wrong with it. Spiced pumpkin cheesecake was also good but a bit underwhelming when compared to the other two (But that's just my opinion! my sister would disagree). The worker was also so friendly and sweet. Felt a little bad because he seemed to be the only one working in the front and a line was growing behind me. Wonderful experience though! Would definitely come back to try all the other flavors read more

If you like banana pudding.. this is the place to be! It's banana pudding with a twist. You can try different flavors before deciding on what to order. I like the pandan and ube. They have various toppings too- I had the Nila crackers. To finish it off, we ordered the calamansi soda- it was made in house! We were the only customers there so it was quiet and the service was fast. Its a small and cutely decorated place, perfect spot to casually catch up with friends. read more

One of the best dessert spots in JC! The owner was amazing to talk to, you can tell the commitment and passion they have for the brand and each of the flavors they created. They focused mainly on dessert offerings for those that can't have dairy so they took the plunge into the dessert world and I am glad they did cause they have some of the best flavors like OG (banana pudding), ube Oreo, cookies n cream, green tea and so many more! The setup is similar to an ice cream shop, very modern interior with a few seating spaces, parking is limited to local parking at the time you visit. read more
