    Cute place! Glad we got there before the crowds and got a table! But it's little cramped for people to walk in/out with people sitting at tables. Their pastries looked absolutely beautiful and hard to make decisions. The coffee came in a unique cup, cute. It's a really nice place to stop by after brunch.

    Cute spot to enjoy a sweet treat and tea sitting inside or outside. Generous pot of tea for each person. Good variety of cakes, pastries, croissants. Some vegan and gluten free options.

    Vegan mango cake

    It's a lovely place visually. Like I felt like at any time I could be part of a romcom and something magical would happen lol but instead i played a game of chess, ate my vegan mango cake (it was okay could've been a little fresher), and a delicious oat chai tea. It's a nice place to sit and work. I'll be back :) bring cash for tips

    Matcha latte and Vanilla Napoleon
    Trinity F.

    I absolutely love the cakes here. I got the Vanilla Napoleon this time but I usually try out new cakes each time. The matcha latte was terrible though, it was basically water. I think the pastries are more worth it here.

    Such a cute bakery in the heart of downtown Princeton. My first visit was a pleasant one. It was very crowded on a Sunday afternoon but the staff was very nice. They had complimentary cucumber infused water out for people to drink. There was a wide selection of pastries and cakes. We ordered a slice of carrot cake and another chocolate pastry and a strawberry lemonade to dine in. We loved our selection and will be back to try other stuff on the menu. The inside can get crowded really quickly but I also Loved how they had 2 tables outside for an outdoor dining option.

    Black coffee and cake

    Very cute spot! Stopped here after small world coffee (can never get enough caffeine) and also got a little cake and it was delicious. The inside is very cozy, bright, light, and lots of two tops to enjoy a little afternoon break solo or with a friend. We sat up front by the window and had a great time sipping on coffee, people watching, and taking a little break from all of the holiday hustle and bustle. Coffee was tasty, piping hot and the chocolate cake was rich, creamy, and delicious. The line moved quickly and the staff was pleasant. I'd return if I pass through Princeton again.

    Vanilla napoleon, rose eclair(?), red velvet napoleon

    The service was very quick, and the long daunting line passed fast. I personally had their vanilla napoleon which was amazing. I came to study with friends and it was the perfect ambiance. Especially with the coffee options and tea

    Yum!

    Christmas Day, the only place open. packed! they close at 4 today, but they are doing Yeoman's work in catering to the crowd! Above and beyond the call of duty! I'm still waiting for my to go cappuccino, but I want to give them kudos for their spirit in attending to Christmas Day rush . The pastries look amazing. Beyond amazing if I was only not on a low-carb diet I'm making allowances for cappuccino. It's Christmas. Jesus would've forgiven me. One negative. There are some areas of dusting they might want to attend to.

    This remains my husband and my favorite place to grab tasty cute desserts and tea/coffee following a meal in Princeton! Beautiful shop with all the lovely high noon tea decor, however, was surprised by the rave/dance music being played there that evening which didn't quite go with the shop. Besides that point on music, will be back for more sweet goodness!

    Cassis cake and trilogy mousse
    Julia L.

    Went here with a friend to grab a sweet bite to eat and had so much fun! The inside of the cafe is very bright and cute, with fun pop music playing overhead. We went when it was pretty crowded, but the long line moved pretty fast due to the efficiency of the employees here. I liked the chocolate mousse I got. The thin layer of cake at the bottom added a lighter citrus-y note to the three chocolate layers, as well as some textural variation. The white and dark chocolate mousse were thick and creamy, while the milk chocolate mousse (middle layer) was also a bit grainy, which I thought gave an interesting mouthfeel. It was very rich, a bit too filling and sweet for me to opt for it again but if you like sweeter/creamy desserts, definitely go for this one! My friend enjoyed the cassis(?) cake a lot! It was super cute and sweet. Love the decorated chocolate bar on top.

    Chez Alice Bakery in Princeton is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by the delightful aroma of freshly baked goods and a warm, inviting atmosphere by Chrysa who's one of the owners. They have a big variety of pastries. We tried the truffon which was flavorful along with a cup of earl grey tea. It's a must visit if you ever around the area.

    Mango cake
    Elizabeth S.

    Delicious, just overpriced. We ordered takeout here and got the key lime meringue ($8), mango cake ($8), and lime tart ($2.50). The aesthetic of this cafe is very cute and the display in the window is beautiful! The macaroons also looked really good. The mango cake was one of the best I've had. It was light, topped with some chocolate, and had an authentic mango flavor. I would highly recommend it if you come here. The key lime meringue was what you'd expect. It was still pretty good, sour, tangy, and sweet. It was topped with pieces of lime, a raspberry, and a piece of dark chocolate. All the desserts are so pretty, especially this one. The lime tart was bite-sized but really delicious. Would recommend if you like the flavor of lime. The crust was perfectly cooked and it went in my mouth smoothly. Overall, if you are looking for an upscale bakery to eat desserts and sit around to chat, this is the place!

    Really enjoyed this place for a Saturday morning breakfast. Despite being extremely busy, we were…read moreable to get seating inside and the team kept the line moving. Coffee was great - had a hot latte which was very sold. The breakfast sandwich on English muffin was very good too. Of course, they've got lots of little pies and other desserts. The Dinky cake donut creation we ordered was delicious, but you'll need to be a fan of cream cheese to enjoy the filling. It was lively when we were there and is obviously a local favorite. The seating is minimal inside, but has some tables for small and large groups (just not many). We'll definitely come back in the future.

    I recently tried LiLLiPiES Bakery for lunch over the weekend. I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese and…read morean iced mocha. The bacon, egg and cheese was quite yummy and I loved how they have English muffins made in house. The everything English muffin was unique and just right. The iced mocha was solid and did the job, but didn't stand out to me. For how busy it was, my food and drink came out relatively quick. I took my order on the go, but they do have a bit of seating as well. My only complaint about this place is that they are quite pricy. Besides that, I do look forward to trying some of their pastries in the future.

    Embellishment thy name is Princeton. Why call a business that sells baked goods a bakery when what…read morewe really need is a new school "bread boutique." No self-respecting connoisseur or influencer worth their curated sea salt would stand for anything less than hand-crafted loaves touched by the Almighty. Well, I stand corrected. Their baguettes and Zucchini bread are outstanding and worthy of any hosanna I could summon. If your going to engage in marketing grandiosity it's nice to know Princeton's Bread Boutique delivers. It's easy to be cynical but what they don't sell here are eye rolls. Five very easy stars.

    After my first bite of the pistachio-crusted croissant here, I swallowed and pronounced, "People…read moreneed to know about this place." We'd turned in here after feeling discouraged by the long lines at another nearby bakery. Here, it was sunny, quiet, and redolent of that heady bread aroma. Another personally good sign was seeing several empty trays in the windows. When a bakery 'sells out' of stuff, I feel like I've uncovered a hot spot. Here's where I need to make a confession: I like croissants a little more than a normal human being should. Really, I'm a croissant addict. So we already knew I'd like these. But ooh la la, these were especially fine. One had rough chunks of pistachio, a subtle, sticky glaze, and - sweet Jesus - pistachio cream on the inside. When my husband saw the pecan pie croissant, we knew I was done for. Behind the counter, there's a large selection of bread loaves, along with a small savory menu. Along the side of the bakery, there's also a refrigerated area with drinks and cold sandwiches. There are a few tables and seats inside, available first come first served.
