Heard so much about their cinnamon rolls!! So glad I finally got the opportunity to try them. I waited on line for approx 20 mins. I got the original cinnamon roll and the April special, which was carrot cake. Also got a strawberry shortcake matcha. The rolls are big! Worth the price and wait in my opinion. I preferred the original over the carrot cake. The carrot cake roll had some big pieces of carrot lol a bit unexpected because I assumed the carrots would be a bit more finely grated. but not bad! the carrot taste is just a lot more prominent. strawberry shortcake matcha was good, but I think the cinnamon rolls are the real star here. There's a good amount of seating. Staff is very kind. Def want to come back to try the other special cinnamon roll flavors in the coming months! read more

The cinnamon rolls were fantastic but absolutely not worth the hassle it took to get them. I dragged myself out at 6:30am to make the hour long drive to Hoboken, and then waited in line in the pouring rain just to finally try one of these famous cinnamon rolls. They were very good, do not get me wrong. And if I lived in the area, I probably would come here quite often. However, they don't hold up well as leftovers so I would only buy what you're able to eat that day as it loses a lot once it's no longer fresh. The coffee was honestly nothing to write home about which surprised me since it looked better, maybe I got a bad batch. The store itself was cute inside, liked the little play area for kids. Again if I lived in the area, this would probably be a good spot to get work done. Maybe it's for the best that I live far... as I'd probably be getting cinnamon rolls far more often than I should be. read more

Loved it! My kids who came with me loved it as well. Nice cute coffee shop with a little play area for toddlers. Also loved the coffee i got from there. I would be back but i was visiting hoboken read more

Stopped by to get some coffee to-go and loved the place! Inside was actually spacious and really looked neat. I tried their Banana Pancake latte special and it was delicious! We also got just plain oatmilk latte and brewed coffee as well as some cookies (smores, confetti) and all were pretty good! not to mention the latte arts were perfect and service was friendly! Loved that they have a separate space for little kids to play (which you pay $7 for). Im sure the parents appreciate this - having a place for coffee while also letting smaller kids enjoy. They have babycinno too! Parking can be hard as its street parking only but there are some garages available if you dont mind walking a bit. Would love to return someday for a sit-down experience. read more

The Hive is a Hoboken staple for a reason. Catherine and Kristin have created something truly special. The space is warm, welcoming, and always a treat. Highly recommend the next time you're in town! read more

This aesthetic coffeeshop-bakery is a legend in Hoboken. They are famous for their cinnamon rolls and delicious coffees. Their "hidden gem" though, I feel is their cookies. The cookies are huge and remind me of Levain's cookies. I love that I dont have to make a trek into NYC when I'm craving for cookies. The cashiers/baristas are also always so sweet and friendly. Love that they are founded by 2 local moms and so happy to see a local business doing well. read more

Pretty cute cafe in Hoboken. Was walking through the neighborhood and swung by for an afternoon snack. The folks working behind the table were friendly and patient as we made our choice on what to eat. We got the matcha latte, americano, and the smore snack. Overall pretty good though apparently their cinny rolls are the star of the show but would've needed to line up before open. Maybe next time! Cute bright spot with even an area to let your children play. I'd say it's worth giving a try. read more

The Hive 1000 Park Ave. Hoboken, NJ 07030 Classic Cinnamon Bun If you want to get a taste of this classic breakfast treat served only on weekends, make sure you arrive 60-90 minutes before the shop opens because they will sell out! This roll was freshly made with a heaping pile of cream cheese icing on top. Grab the utensils because it's so gigantic not even The Incredible Hulk can hold it with both hands! The bun may stick to the carton, but the fork and knife will easily detach this heavenly bun! read more

Probably most famously known for their ooey gooey cinnamon buns (that are so coveted a line forms around the block on weekends) but The Hive also serves up great coffee, a cozy space and a very kid friendly vibe. Even when I was a Hobokenite, I didn't live in this area, so I never stopped in too often, but after a recent visit I am reminded this a great gem in town. I got my usual hot oat milk latte and it was delicious and a perfect pick me up! They do have a few tables, along with lots of sweet little goodies lining the walls like candles, soaps, cute cards, etc. They also have an entire area dedicated to a kids play area. Kind of perfect for a town with so many young parents. For a non parent like myself, it was a little too loud and filled with tiny tikes, but I kind of love that there is a spot like this! I took my coffee for a walk around town instead of just sitting at a table with a friend like we intended. Also just gotta mention that the team of baristas was lovely and managing the busy crowd so well. Maybe not the best place to sit and work on your laptop, but there are a hundred other cafes like that in town. This IS the best place for two parents looking to catch up over good coffee with their little ones where they will be able to run around and play without worry. read more

Amazing and delicious. The original cinnamon roll is a must. Their monthly speciality cinnamon roll is usually good too! Their iced coffee is also delicious! The shop is clean and family friendly including a play area for small children in the back. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Please do get there early though as they do sell out of the cinnamon rolls! read more

Worth the wait!! Luckily my wonderful gf waited in line while I sat in the car illegally parked. We got there early, about 9am and there was already a line down the block. Even with the line in total it was about 25 minute wait. Not bad for such a trendy spot. Now for the buns. When we went the special of the week was coconut cream, which was an absolute dream. Incredible from first bite to the last. Their original was also very good. You will never want Cinnabon again. We also got a delicious cappuccino that completed the meal. Will be back. read more

No one does a chocolate chip cookie better than the Hive. I mean this thing is a monster. The chocolate chunks that come out of it once you bite into it are humongous. With that being said, it's a treat you can indulge in two days. It is sweet and thick and heavy but oh so good!!! I wanted to love their cold brew coffee but I am not a fan. It always tastes like spoiled milk to me. A coworker said that it's because the beans are strong ‍. read more

The Hive is a lovely coffee shop nestled in Hoboken. The shop is very bright and inviting which is what drew me to the shop altogether. There is limited seating though. I feel like they have the space to put more seating but it seems intentional to not crowd the space. They have a children's play area in the back also so it is family friendly. I think the best thing about this coffee shop is their pastries. They have some amazing pastries. They seem to change often as well. It's not your usual croissant and muffin place like everyone else sells. The last pastry I had that I had no business getting was a blueberry yogurt muffin. It was huge and fluffy. I loved it, it was very tasty. Now I know they have the cinnamon buns on the weekends which I would love to try but I cannot see myself standing in line early in the morning without coffee in hopes to snag one before they sell out. One day! Now the coffee....Im a hard critic on coffee and the flavor profile of the coffee is very good. What I didn't like was their cappuccino was too big and heavy for my taste. It was heavy on the milk with a small amount of foam on top which to me is closer to a latte. I like to pick up the cup and feel a light foamy cappuccino and this wasn't it. Otherwise the staff were friendly and overall a nice pleasant coffee shop. read more

Finally got around to trying the Hive's viral cinnamon buns this weekend. My friend was passing by and there wasn't a line yet so she offered to pick it up for me. They have a limit of 4 per person, which is fine since she got two for me and two for her. I can't imagine trying to purchase a dozen of these - spending over $100 on cinnamon buns is wild. I purchased 1 regular and 1 of their special 'Berry Cherry' flavor to share with my husband. The buns are huge and smell delightful when you open the container. They were fresh, soft, delicious and huge. Both flavors were really good, but I preferred the original over the berry. When I went back to eat more of the buns later that night (way too big to eat a whole one in one sitting), I microwaved them for about 10 seconds and they tasted even better ooey & gooey. I'm so glad I got to try them without the long wait. I would never wait on a line for these but I now understand why some people do! read more

Delicious cinnamon buns! Definitely keep in mind you might have to wait awhile after you order because they're made fresh in batches.

Wow! Great cinnamon roll worth trying. Be sure you read their website on how to increase your chances of buying them. Never really thought much about cinnamon rolls, but this one was so soft and warm with the right amount of icing and filling. read more

I can't believe it's been 3 years since my last review! I frequent The Hive often - I love this coffee shop! Great vibes from the baristas, always and yummy lattes (my favorite are always the seasonal ones like Lucky Charms Matcha or the recently moved to regular menu, chocolate covered strawberry cold brew OR latte!) their lavender oat latte is delicious too, was my go to in the beginning but now I like to switch things up. Oh and let's not forget about the viral cinnamon rolls! They truly are the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had (yes, even over Cinnabon's ) they're huge, gooey, and oh so yummy but you'll have to get up early and wait in line for them because their popularity has sky rocketed but I promise they're worth it ($8 each & ONLY on weekends - be sure to check out their instagram they update it when they're sold out!). Most recently they've had monthly special rolls like blueberry crumble, chocolate covered strawberry and now (April) - cannoli cream! Parking in Hoboken is always tricky so just bc one a little earlier to give yourself time to park. If you have little ones, they have a great play space (I think you need to reserve online and pay in store**check the website for more info**) read more

Quality/taste: My friend and I both got the lavender oat lattes, blueberry muffin, and almond croissant. We LOVED the lattes - the coffee was strong, while also having that clear lavender flavor but not too overpowering. Hands down one of my top 3 lavender oat lattes I've ever had. The blueberry muffin was OK, nothing special. The almond croissant was good. It had a nice almond filling inside that wasn't too overbearing and tasted really different/good. Would get it again! I got it warmed so I recommend you do too! Service: There was a line when we got there. Line went by quickly tho. The staff were really nice when we were ordering. She even made some recs on what was good to try. We came to try the cinnamon rolls but by the time we got there (around 1pm), they were sold out! :( Our drinks came out quickly. Environment: Spacious, cute, and clean! They could use more seating/tables. But there is free wifi! It did get a little loud at one point of being there because there is a kids play pen area. Price: $$ Overall, I really liked this cute cafe. I would definitely come back and try a different unique drink that they offer. I appreciate how they are really clean and how quick the service was. I do wish they had more seating available though. Good space to work from. read more

My daughter sent me a reel about The Hive! So excited to try their cinnamon rolls!! I had the honor of being the first person in line!! I arrived at 7:14am and The Hive opened at 8am. Shortly thereafter more people arrived and as shown on the reel the line was long. I enjoyed a latte to go and purchased my "allowed" 4 cinnamon rolls! Family and I enjoyed the rolls! Worth waiting in line! Suggestion! The first person in line should be able to purchase a bonus roll to enjoy with their coffee at The Hive!

Ordered: Original Cinnamon Roll (~$8) Blueberry Pancake Cinnamon Roll (~$9) Lavender Oat Latte (~$6): subbed coconut milk bc they were out of oat Aya's take: Woke up early on a Saturday and decided to seize the day with some cinnamon rolls. At 7am, there was already a line of 15 people ahead despite them not officially opening until 8am. The line was probably closer to 50 people by the time it was 8am. They start taking orders exactly at 8am, give you a little post-it note with your order and tell you what time your cinnamon rolls will be ready. They also have complimentary coffee/tea while you wait which is a nice touch. I decided to get one of each, and as many others have said, the price is a bit steep! Despite that, I can't say I've had a better Cinnamon Roll before. The Blueberry Pancake was unbelievable; the frosting is creamy, sweet, and tangy while the cinnamon roll itself is light, fluffy, and warm. The Original Cinnamon Roll was a good try; you definitely get more of the cinnamon here but the roll itself is just as good. Btw, we were told by the workers that they probably don't freeze well and I'm here to tell you they actually do! We had them days/weeks later and just defrosted in the microwave on a low setting for about 3 minutes. I was surprised that they still held pretty well! Lavender anything is my go-to at coffee spots and I have to say this Lavender Oat Latte was one of the worst I've had. The lavender did not taste like lavender whatsoever, the coconut milk I had to substitute was a bit overpowering, and it didn't really give me the caffeine kick I needed. Not sure if it was just a bad batch of lavender, the barista made it wrong, or it was just an off day but it wasn't good at all. Glad I got to try out The Hive and would definitely return if any of their seasonal flavors catch my eye. read more

Such a cute coffee shop in Hoboken! Dropped by for some cinnamon rolls - but they sell out early. Opted for a few coffee beverages and other baked goods. Coffee here is good and their cold brew tastes good. The hive also had unique seasonal menu items and I got to try 'the frenchie' with a cold brew base which was a Madeline cold foam on top of cold brew. So so good. There are other cool items such as coco loco cold brew. Highly recommend if you're in the area looking for a cafe and or on the hunt for great coffee. read more

The cutest coffee shop that makes you want to be a Lululemon Hoboken Mom. There's a little playroom in the back that is so adorable and kids were playing together. So many parents/grandparents/Nannie's were in and out during my post-tennis stop there for my online biz calls and presentation. The staff were lovely. The Wi-Fi was great for my 3hr stay. It wasn't loud inside. Seating outside was just as packed as inside. Everyone on calls were at cognizant voice level. I was sad that by 10am they had already sold out of the cinnamon rolls I craved. So I just ordered a donut and specialty iced coffee, which were both good. I love that they sell mom-related products like greeting cards, journals, etc. super cute & efficient for niche gifts when ya need em. Now seeking a husband so I can fit in as a regular at The Hive. Haha don't fret there were singles coworking as well, a male, and a couple females. Go before 10am for cinnamon rolls but save me one. Go, enjoy!! read more

Wanted to see what the buzz was all about. Let me start by saying The Hive is in a great location in Hoboken. It's primarily residential so parking isn't horrendous and is actually attainable. Got there late morning and the line was out the door. Already, there was a sign posted that they sold out of their famous cinnamon buns so if you came for them, you already knew what the next move would be. The place is bright, modern, packed with seating, and super family-friendly, so much so that they have a pay-to-play area for them. I chose my drink from the Valentine's Day "Love Potions" specials menu. I love when I have options, esp seasonal options. Got an Iced Love You Berry Matcha with oatmilk. It was really good. I was thrown off a bit at the price ($8 for a small) but I liked it so I'll overlook my thriftiness. I checked out the merch, sat, sipped, and observed. Even though the place was crazy busy and soooo loud, I liked my drink enough to get it to-go next time. read more

Decided to wake up early on a Saturday to meet my friend at The Hive as we heard their cinnamon buns are amazing! Lines start forming outside at 7:30am and they open at 8am. Since it was snowing outside not many people showed up which was a plus for us. We waited around 20+ minutes on line inside and was enjoying our cinnamon buns by 8:30am. The inside is super cute, inviting colors. Pastels, pinks, whites. There is a play area where you can bring the kiddos and a stroller area outside. Super convenient! There are chairs and tables inside and outside. They also sell candles, snacks and merch. I ordered the lucky charms matcha along with four cinnamon buns (four is the limit per person). I also grabbed a lucky charms rice crispy. My friend ordered the chocolate covered strawberry latte which seemed like a customer favorite! My total was $48 which is crazyyyyyy for four cinnamon buns, a matcha and a rice crispy but hey... I'm here for a good time :) The matcha with the lucky charms was good but I wish I tasted more of the lucky charms. The cinnamon buns were gooey, warm and delicious! My bf said they're better than Cinnabon haha! All in all, it was a morning well spent especially since I found parking right on the block. FYI - cinnamon buns are only sold on Saturdays & Sundays and usually sell out by 9am or 9:30am. read more

Obsessed with this place!!! The cinnamon rolls literally have the people lining up around the block before the cafe even opens. They only make a small amount each day (or just on weekends?) and they sell out quick. There's a limit of 2 per person for a reason! I went on a Saturday morning and was waiting in line at 7:50 am. By the time they opened at 8, there were about 7-10 people waiting. People were getting dropped off while their rides circled the block. I mean!!!! Iconic! Catherine (sp?) the owner is so sweet and kind. She was scooping the h*ll out of that icing and plopping it down on the cinnamon rolls! She was very friendly with my local friend that I went with. I love when business owners remember customers' names and get to know them past transactional interactions. 5 stars for that alone! Otherwise, the cinnamon roll was delicious and the variety of seasonal and year-round beverages they offer made it really hard to decide which one I wanted. They also sell merch and cute gift things around the store. I wanted to buy one of everything!!! Also, they have a rotating schedule of events they host there, including a drag bingo. So needless to say this place is on my stan list forever. Ok bye! read more

Over rated. The play area for kids was very dirty and the toys were beat up. They charged to use the play area, not worth it.

We got the banana cinnamon bun and the regular cinnamon bun. I wasn't sure it would live up to the hype but it was pretty good. Not sure I would wait 25 minutes again but if I am only judging the product it was delicious. The icing isn't too sweet and the cinnamon flavor is lovely. They are best eaten hot obviously. Worth it to check out! read more

Small little neighborhood coffee shop. Quiet workspace with 5 or so tables for two inside and a small counter. Another 5 tables out on the patio. It's is very quiet. A low energy space. At least it was mid week, mid morning when I was there. I had a delicious salted Carmel latte. I have no special instructions but it was just the right sweet and salty. It was good. Had a scone from their pastry cabinet and it was all great. I don't think this is a destination but they do a great job and it's a good coffee. What else do you need? Would I come back? Sure. Free Wi-Fi if you are into that sort of thing. read more
