The customization here for freshly-made donuts is bar none. For fans of build-your-own, this is…read moregreat! The donuts have a more cake-like texture to them than something like a Krispy Kreme donut. Service is nothing to write home about, but efficient.

Yes, yes, and hell yes!…read more Do not come here to complain about the price or anything else. I am extremely picky about food, and this sandwich hit every flavor note perfectly. I drove 20 minutes home before eating it and honestly thought it would be soggy by then, but it was not at all. The bread was soft without being dry. The pesto was hands down the best I have ever had. Even the chips paired perfectly with the sandwich. The red onions were sliced perfectly, the turkey was generously packed in, and the lettuce and tomatoes did not overpower anything. You could taste every single component working together. From the bread, onions, lettuce, tomatoes, chips, turkey, pesto sauce, and the other sauce, every bite had balance and flavor. I also ordered a cookie butter coffee. I have definitely had better coffee before, but honestly this one was perfect because it was not overloaded with sugar like Dunkin. So for me, it was just right. The staff member was also amazing. I originally ordered a bagel, but it was forgotten. I reminded her, but then I saw someone else order a sandwich and asked if I could switch instead. They told me the bagel had already been made, and I said it was totally fine and that I would just take both because I did not want to be a bother. Instead, they resolved everything for me. I am so sorry for the confusion, but thank you guys so much!

They have been one of my favorite…read morecafes ever since my RU days (IYKYK, so much love to the OG on Easton Ave), and I love to see them grow and grow. I stumbled in with a hankering for a chai latte on a day walking around downtown JC and when I saw HG, it was an easy choice. While almost all cafes will make a chai latte, few do it better than Hidden Grounds. That was my only try for the visit, but I already know I love their pastries, specifically those rose donuts. They had a few tables that were all available and had no problem with me having my pup with me. Only good things to report. Get the chai!

It was our first time in, and they were patient, helpful, and happy to offer advice based on what we were looking for. We got way too many donuts, but honestly, is there really such a thing?

I have to say that even their homemade whip cream is not overly sweet. My favorite donut has been the apple tart & old fashioned.

My only complaint is how expensive they are for the size . - half a dozen for $24.00. Come by and try a few. They are delightful. #BrandonsDonuts

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!

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.

Buns! So I recently learned that the City stopped Scram from making these egg sandwiches because…read morethe cooking equipment did not meet the fire code or something like that. Anyhow, I was looking for a nice spot to grab some breakfast on a Friday morning and found this as an option. Surprisingly enough, there were buns! And I got myself a Fontina. That was SUPER SUPER SUPER good! I washed it off with a cold brew and it was the best way to start off a Friday. Turnaround time was also super fast! I could've easily did some work there, but opted to do it on my phone while I sat there and enjoyed the people and vibes around me. Seating is decent enough and you have your choice of high tables or regular size. Plenty of space to work, so don't feel nervous next time!

Since…read moreNew York doesn't really have a ton of mom-and-pop donut shops, most people end up here or Dunkin'. If you want something a little more unique than Dunkin' or Krispy Kreme, this is the spot. The only thing holding me back from giving it 5 stars is the price. A couple donuts and suddenly you're spending way more than you planned. That said, the donuts are massive. You can easily split one with someone or save half for later. They also do some pretty fun seasonal flavors, especially around the holidays, so there's usually something new to try whenever you stop by.
