Panaderya salvaje is on another level (and I say that as someone who's spoiled by living near Kora in Queens). Came at 10:09 AM on a holiday Friday and they were already sold out of a few things, so I will be even earlier next time! I tried: + Dragonfruit and pineapple croissant + Calamansi croissant twist + Mango peach Cruffin + Ube piaya The calamansi was my favorite, followed by the dragonfruit croissant and ube piaya. Truly no misses. They didn't have the famed ube latte croissant - was on the menu for the next day though. Will be back to try that! Employees are super friendly. read more

Panaderya Salvaje keeps giving me reasons to come back with new weekday and weekend specials, with an irresistible lineup of sweet and savory pastries inspired by classic Filipino flavors. After finally trying the famous two Michelin starred Kasama in Chicago, I can even say Panaderya Salvaje still holds a special place in my heart. Different styles, but this mom-and-pop bakery has already earned a Michelin star in my heart. ＊Ube Almond Twice Baked Croissant $7 *** My favorite of the bunch. Super ube-forward with both halaya and ganache. Rich, gooey, and not overly sweet. The crunchy croissant made it even better. ＊Dragonfruit & Pineapple Croissant $8 Tropical flavor combo for summer. The pineapple pastry cream was overflowing, while the dragonfruit ganache was more subtle but gave that pretty pop of color. The croissant didn't stay as plump/crispy as their usual pastry cream ones, probably due to the heat wave! ＊Humba Pandesal Sando $12 ** Love at first bite! The pandesal was so soft, the baked egg was almost custardy like steamed egg, and the pork belly had a nice sweet-savory flavor. The fermented black bean reminded me so much of chinese douchi, and the pork belly was like hong shao rou. ＊Hot Honey Foccacia $7 I got this fresh out of the oven. Crispy crust, super pillowy crumb, with just a gentle heat that wasn't overwhelming at all. The corner piece is always the best iykyk. read more

For months I had been seeing Panaderya Salvaje on my social feeds. I finally made the trip over to Jersey City with my girlfriend. The bakery is tiny but the space feels cozy. I like that there are tables outside too. Luckily my girlfriend and I were able to snag seats at the counter by the window. I won't spend too much time going over each menu item because they might not even have it at the time you visit. From my understanding they rotate their menu pretty often. Follow them on IG to get updates. However I think their Ube Latte Croissant is a staple (and for good reason!). The croissant itself is super buttery and flaky with a good amount of ube flavor. It's earthy and sweet. I didn't know that there was a coffee cream filling until I but in and was pleasantly surprised. Their offerings have a good mix of savory and sweet pastries. I tried a bunch and loved them all. I can highly recommend Panaderya Salvaje. read more

On this visit I got - rendang croissant - chocolate yema cake - monkey bread And I recommend the first two. Specifically I had never had a savory croissant like that - the beef(?) was a nice touch. I think they could work on their monkey bread. The cream is what saved it; but the actual pastry was doughy and not flaky at all. I still ate all of it though lol read more

Ordered: Ube Latte Croissant (~$8): coffee pastry cream, ube infused dough, ube ganache Biko Danish (~$7): sticky rice, coconut caramel, whipped cream Strawberry Monkey Bread (~$7): croissant pieces, strawberry cream cheese frosting, and cake crumble Rendang Croissant (~$11): shredded beef, coconut, palapa Chicken Sisig Danish (~$9): onion, chili, egg, herb salad, calamansi honey vinaigrette Aya's take: A specialty bakery hates to see me coming let alone a Filipino one which I don't see often! Panaderya Salvaje is fusing traditional Filipino flavors with French-style pastry techniques. It's super small on the inside and designed more as a grab & go spot. We got here right around opening (8am) on a Saturday and luckily there wasn't a line yet but there were a handful of people who had already ordered. Out of everything we ordered, my favorites were the Biko Danish & Chicken Sisig Danish. These two were unreal! The Biko Danish is unlike anything I've had before with the sticky rice being perfectly cooked, not overly sticky or gummy, and the coconut caramel was so rich & tasty but messy to eat! You basically can't put it down until it's done otherwise the coconut caramel will spill out. The Chicken Sisig Danish was savory in all the right ways. The egg on top was cooked perfectly and soaked into the danish and chicken. The herb salad was a much-needed freshness on top and cut through a lot of the savoriness. We didn't have a bad bite here honestly but those were my 2 favorites. The Ube Latte Croissant is their classic and I will say it's super heavy and sweet but I was a big fan of the coffee pastry cream and they do not skimp out! The ube ganache was a bit too thick & rich for my liking but again, I didn't mind. The Rendang Croissant was also great but the palapa was slightly overpowering with the various aromatics. I enjoyed it but a little goes a long way, in my opinion. Their Strawberry Monkey Bread is one of the softest, lightest, and not sweet versions I've had and the strawberry was just right. They rotate their menu often so I would definitely come back when I'm back in the area and something on their menu catches my eye! read more

We finally got a chance to visit. Easier to get to on foot than auto. They have a nice spot on Erie. The place is small but intimate. Staff is helpful and friendly. Had a short conversation with them about the neighborhood and how it changed. We chose 4 items from recommendations and a coffee. Some seating outside and would be great on a quiet morning. Overall, I think Salvaje will be one of my favorite bakeries moving forward. Love the concept, selection and owners. Support your local business. Salvaje gets a high recommendation from me. read more

A small bakery that serves delicious treats! It's mostly just a small counter inside without any seating so it's best for grab and go. They had 7 items when I went today and I got 6 of them. - Brownie $6 A standard delicious brownie that wasn't too sweet aka appealed to an Asian dessert palate - Ube Latte Croissant $8 I had never had anything like this before! There was lots of flaky lamination on the croissant, the Ube glaze wasn't too sweet and it was filled with coffee cream. It was absolutely perfect! - Pandan Kouign Amann $6 Another pastry with perfect lamination topped with subtle Pandan cream. Also perfectly delicious! - Longganisa Sausage Roll $8 The sausage was flavorful and large and the pastry was deliciously flaky. - Pork Sando $9 Slider size sandwich that was filled with arugula and pulled pork that had great flavors and was very tender. - Raspberry Olive Oil Cake $8 Very light and refreshing and was topped with a lemon cream. I can't wait to come back here to have these again and try new items! read more

This is a cute café, and worth the stop in when there is not a line wrapping around the block. It smelled so buttery and inviting when walking in. There is a limited amount of pastries available a day and a small selection. They usually always have a croissant, brownie and the paiya. I had the ube paiya and a monkey bread that was made of croissant pieces and young coconut on the top. The monkey bread was light, flaky and buttery. I liked it a lot. The ube paiya tasted like a pound of sugar, it was way too sweet. The prices for some things are too expensive, they have a pineapple croissant that is $9. I rarely spend $9 on a breakfast pastry. It is definitely like a once in a while treat, it would be hard to justify going to this place everyday. The staff are super friendly and welcoming, you can tell they love what they do and are very passionate about it. No space to sit inside, very small but there are two benches and a couple of chairs outside. It's a to go place. Stop in to try something unique! read more

I hate giving 3-star reviews, but I've always felt the bar for food in JC is relatively low, making it much easier for places to earn 4 or 5-star ratings compared to NYC. I'd been wanting to try this bakery for a while since it's not always open, and I was excited by its colorful pastries. I ordered several items on my first visit because I really wanted to like this place. Unfortunately, most of the pastries were overbaked, to the point of being hard and crunchy rather than crisp--and overwhelmingly sweet. On top of that, many of the pastries lacked much flavor beyond the sugar. The ube monkey bread was especially disappointing: the crust was clearly overbaked, the filling was far too sweet, and I couldn't even finish it. Several of the other pastries had the same issue, they were overbaked, losing the light, crisp texture they should have had, leaving little more than sweetness. Too bad. I really wanted to like this place. If you wanna get their pastries for their appearance alone, go for it. read more

Amazing pastries & coffee as well! Highly recommend! Follow their IG page for more. Definitely best bakery in Jersey! Worth the trek from nyc! Ube latte croissant, all savory items, and also the piaya!!! Iykyk!! read more

Got here at 7:30am on a Saturday and there were only a handful of people ahead of us. Small spot with limited seating, mainly grab-and-go. I tried one of everything, and these stood out: * Tocino & Cheese Croissant - savory, with bacon baked into the layers * Ube Latte Croissant - rich and custardy * Tablea Brownie - dense and rich, but pricey at $7 * Coffee Croissant Loaf - great pull-apart style; perfect for sharing or portioning * Calamansi Olive oil Cake - pound cake with lemon meringue Ones I'd skip next time: * Ube Piaya - nothing special * Dinakdakan Pot Pie - not my taste, though the chili oil kick was nice Overall: Worth it if the line is under 30 minutes and anything on the menu spikes your interest. read more

Lines outside lines inside things, you have to do to get the flaky ube crossiant. Every bite just a big crisp and filling just over flowing. The cake is a little dry but no need to deduct a star, because the flavor made up for it. Price is so kind too especially with the amount of filling. read more

It is a cute little Filipino bakery and the staff are friendly. The pastries are delicious, and they are not too sweet. My favorite was the ube piaya and pandan & fig pastry. Their Ube croissants are only sold on the weekends. I happened to stop by on Wednesday and their did not have them. read more

After three tries, I finally managed to get something! You really do have to come early, or else they're going to be sold out! The first time, I foolishy thought I'd stop by on my way to the bagel store around 11am. They were already sold out. Doors closed. The second time, it was around 10am and the line was down the block and almost most things were sold out. The third time, I started lining up around 9:15am and managed to get three things - the calamansi loaf, ube playa, and the brownie. I also had a muscovado matcha latte, which was fantastic. The calamansi loaf was kind of similar to a lemon meringue loaf and was delightful. The brownie, oh my gosh the brownie! It was so moist and fudgey. I would defintiely get both of these again. read more

Great food and very friendly staff. I got the ube piaya and chicken sisig kolache and both were flavorful and reasonably priced. I was hoping to try the ube latte croissant, but it wasn't on the menu when I went, so I'll have to come back soon! And while everyone was so nice, I will say the lines are pretty long for a grab and go service. Hopefully it's just part of the growing pains of a new spot. read more

I went when there was no line, which probably made my experience smoother than most (as I don't think it's worth it with a wait!) I wouldn't trek from NYC just for this like someone else did in the reviews. Jersey City doesn't exactly have a wealth of standout bakeries, so the bar here is lower by default (Radio Bakery, Dominique Ansel, Somedays, etc. are in another league entirely). The pot pie was a miss--it was basically a cup of pork fat....No real meat, just really greasy and heavy. The calamansi meringue thing was... fine. Too sweet because of the meringue, not balanced. Since I live nearby I would come here again but I think what happens in JC is that because options are limited, people start hyping anything that's even halfway decent. By that measure, sure, this place is "better than average." But better than average in JC doesn't mean you should wait 30 min in line for it. (I was lucky and didn't have a wait) read more

Ever since Panderya Salvaje joined the neighborhood, I've been finding myself grabbing a weekly treat (or three). The menu changes so be sure to check their instagram for their daily menu before traveling to the store. I'd personally like to see more of the (ube, pandan) flavors incorporated into the dough versus frosting, as it is messy and runny. I recommend going earlier during the day though, once they sell out they will close for the day. Love the savory croissants :) read more

Been following them since they were a pop up and I am glad that they opened their store front. Love the baked goods and the community aspect of this place. Always recommend everyone I know to try this out!! read more

Went in the morning this past weekend and the line wasn't too bad. No limit on the pastries was a plus! The savory pastries were exactly that - SAVORY. We loved everything we got. Ordered iced vanilla matchas but wish we got the muscavado matchas instead!! It's so exciting to support our Filipino community in town. We'll definitely be back to support our people! read more

Delicious pastries with a mix of sweet and savory! We got the Dinakdakan Pot Pie and Bukayo Loaf: - Dinakdakan Pot Pie (4.5/5): This savory pot pie is made with pork in a puff pastry with a hard-boiled egg on top. The pastry was perfectly flaky but didn't have a lot of pork inside. - The Bukayo Loaf (5/5): This sweet pastry was our personal favorite and made with dark molasses and caramelized coconut. Definitely recommend!! We went around 7:05 AM (opens at 7) and there was a 20 - 25 minute wait - so definitely recommend that you come early in the morning! read more
