Just an excellent bakery in every possible respect. The cookies are large and crunchy as well as chewy. The blackout cake is too rich to be believed. They make the best fudge brownie I have ever eaten. The apple crumb pie, although pricey, will serve many guests and was utterly perfect perfection.
High quality baked goods and service at this gem of a bakery in New Providence and now Madison. We've previously tried the Brooklyn blackout cake, coffee cake and croissants. All were fresh and tasty. We recently tried their cheesecake which was decadent yet light. No fruit toppings so we added fresh berries from the local market and it was a hit. The prices are fair for what you get and it gets crowded during the usual busy times. The store is bright and clean with helpful staff. So happy they got rid of the annoying tip suggestion thingy when using credit cards. Two thumbs way up!
Today we visited the famous (and diet infamous) Bakehouse by Joe Murphy in Madison, NJ. What can I say about their brownie except Yum! Not knowing what we were going to choose, we decided to go for the classic brownie, which is a fudgy, chocolatey, decadent treat that's perfect for any meal. The super friendly and extremely helpful person at the counter said "you get a different experience when it's cold versus room temperature" which we tried and now I want more. After decades in 5-star hotels and Michelin-star restaurants as a head pastry chef, Joe Murphy wanted to bring Parisian-style and luxury baked goods home - serving them up to my neighbors in NJ. Making high-quality baked goods accessible, from their custom cakes and pies to classic (but far from ordinary) cookies and brownies.

Every time I'm in the area I stop by! The bakery has a great variety of pastries, both savory and sweet. You can tell they're baked fresh and they're always delicious! My favorite are the croissants that are so light and flaky! Of course the Brooklyn black out cake is also a must try, it beat Bobby Flay on his Food Network show! The service is always quick and so friendly. They'll also warm up a pastry for you! They have a few seats inside and outside to enjoy your treats. Parking is easy in a plaza. Definitely worth checking out!
Located in a small strip mall, parking is ample. Once you walk in, you are surrounded by the smell of baked goodies. Hello Diabetes!!! Lol I love their Brooklyn Blackout cake and their cheesecake. The cheesecake is light and decadent. The Blackout cake is something you just don't shove in to your face & swallow but something to swirl inside your mouth and savor the chocolatey goodness. Quite a trip from where I live but always worth the trek in a very nice upscale neighborhood. Service is good with the young kids in the counter, they give you tips depending on what you buy (storing & serving). Very helpful.
Have been here several times, and each time is amazing. Fresh pastries, excellent coffee, and the cakes are gorgeous and taste great. Service is always very pleasant and helpful.
Had their famous chocolate cake which was delicious. Since I'm not too much of a sweets gal def had this in three sittings. The iced latte was also very good not too strong but perfectly made. Service was excellent the girl behind the counter was super friendly and gave suggestions about what to try. Ambiance was great this is a spot to stop by and chat with friends or even enjoy a baked good and coffee while you read
Second visit!!! Had to return! Craving this chocolate cake!!! OMG!!! The moistest chocolate cake I ever ate! So flavorful!! Yummy!! Love their signature blackout cake: Layers of devils food cake sandwiched together with a rich chocolate pudding and covered with chocolate ganache and chocolate cookie
Heard amazing things about this place and have been meaning to check it out for awhile. Finally had a chance to stop by today and I am so glad I finally tried it!! We got a number of things to try, including cheese danish, raspberry cheese danish, maple bacon croissant, ginger snap cookie, and of course, the signature blackout chocolate cake. Everything was absolutely delicious, the chocolate cake was probably one of the best chocolate cakes I ever had. It was moist, flavorful and perfectly sweet. The space is super cute and inviting. Can't wait to come back again soon!
Eating his blackout cake is better than sex! No wonder he beat Bobbie Flay! You'll love. Brownies and blondes are wonderful too
