Cute, quaint bakery that's open late. Really enjoyed the cookies and customer service was excellent.
Great cupcakes & the cookies 🤤 Kim & her staff are awesome!
The red velvet cake was so delicious…A must!!!
The Henny cupcakes are amazing definitely coming back ! ❤️
The gluten free options are amazing 🙏
Beautiful store with lots of treats. I saw a cake on their IG and ordered it for my wife's birthday, the entire process was simple and very efficient. My wife love the cake and the cupcakes. Great service and food!
5 star customer service. They have a Wonderful Atmosphere and There cookies are amazing. So far one of the best bakeries I've ever been to!
The carrot cake I ordered for a birthday get-together was absolutely delicious! "This cake is epic" was heard from one of the guests, even! The service was great too!
Someone got me mini cupcakes from here and they are AWESOME. Moist and delicious. Frosting and cake tastes like it’s made from scratch 😍🧁!
All around fantastic place great energy. My fav is the Mary J. Blondie and Gluten-Free Foxy Brownie. The Bakery on Bergen is beautiful and also always sparkly clean.
Best cookies, cupcakes and vegan desserts. The gluten free brownie is the best. Owner Akim is a talented Baker and businesswoman
Had a sunset park breakfast sandwich and a coffee (they use Brooklyn Coffee roasters I believe). Both were delicious and service was very friendly. Would recommend!
the BAKERY helped me ensure I threw a seamless party with quick responses and delivery right to my office door. Amazing customer service, delicious treats, would highly recommend. Thank you!
Sweet spot with fresh baked goods each day and cakes. Great atmosphere and neighborhood. THEY HAVE FRESH BAKED VEGAN TREATS AS WELL!!!!! Super hospitality level!!!.
We ordered several cupcakes, fun flavors and great texture! highly recommend.
Absolutely fantastic little bakery and coffee shop the chocolate chip cookie is truly special and the cappuccinos spectacular. GREAT LOCAL SPOT THANK YOU!!
adore this place. u will find heaven in a warm sea salt chocolate chip cookie + iced coffee here. (and i’m annoyingly picky about iced coffee..)
I enjoyed this place. They have great cookies and nice alcohol infused cakes. It is a nice "treat yo self" spot
I love this bakery not only for its stellar cookies and cakes, but the staff is amazing. From top to bottom, this bakery rocks!!
The Chocolate chip salted cookie is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Went in to try it and then ended up buying 2 more..
We visited here for business but we were able to enjoy some of the cupcakes and some rum cake. Very good bakery.
Excellent customer service the cookies and cupcakes are very good and fresh not sweet just right I recommend this bakery their cakes are also very tasteful..
Had a cupcake and it was one of the best I have tasted in a very long time! (Apple cinnamon) definitely going back for more!
The treats here are super tasty and pretty too! Loved the sea salt chocolate chip cookie
The best desserts and the kindest staff! Such a great experience!
Thank you, Kim, owner of the Bakery, for your help and making sure that my sister’s Birthday will have her Birthday cupcakes.....
One of the best chocolate chip cookies I’ve ever had. Great atmosphere.
Chocolate chip cookies made my week. This place is worth every penny, and the people here are so nice
A neighborhood staple. I’m in this place 4x a week. Delicious treats, friendly staff, and a beautifully quaint and spotless spot!
The most amazing, sweet people run this bakery. You will have the best experience here
Amazing! Cupcakes, decor, and the customer service are all perfect. Highly recommend.
I love their rum cake, Hennessy cup cake. And oreos covered whatever. It goes well with my alcoholic drinks on my day off day..... Please add more Bailey to the cup cup cake version to even out. Other than that you folks who complain about delivery remember that's a 3rd party not them🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Early this year I was having a bad day and decided to walk home in the cold rain. If you've been in Brooklyn when it's raining, you know this was a pretty crazy idea. Of course, I got hungry and found myself inside this cute little bakery. Instantly, the cashier gave me a big smile and we instantly connected. He was super friendly, but I noticed a little sitting in the back who seemed like she was quietly keeping an eye on everything. This turned out to be the owner. I honestly think I say and chatted with them both for about 30 minutes to an hour. They recommended the rum cake and my god...it is still one of my favorite things till this day. The cake itself is very juicy, but also has a good amount of alcohol without the taste. So be careful or you'd probably eat like 2 of theses. I just went back a few days ago and got some empanadas and another rum cake. Always on point. Plus, they gave me a sample of the banana pudding! The cream was excellent, just wish it had more of the waffle cookies cause I love the extra crunch. This place feels very much like a hidden gem. Plus it's minority owned, so had to support.
Kim, the owner is so nice and accommodating. We special ordered a vegan german chocolate cake and every guest said it was the best they'd ever had! Without knowing it was vegan even ;-) Have also tried cupcakes and rumcakes from this bakery and everything is amazing. They have a really nice outdoor seating area for the Summer as well. Thank you Kim! We'll see you in a few weeks for our next cake!
First time there and was blown away in every aspect! The Rum cake is mind blowing.. Scrumptious!!
Went there today after brunch and it was perfect timing... the chocolate chip cookies were fresh out of the oven!! I've never had a cookie as delicious as that one! Plus they served it with a tall glass of cold milk 😋 I was in heaven. Plus the service was SUPERB. Walked out with an another chocolate chip cookie, 2 chocolate covered oreos and a cupcake. I will definitely be back!!
I tried The Bakery On Bergen after seeing them featured on Humans of NY and it did not disappoint! The owner, Kim, and her entire team working were friendly and welcoming. The chocolate chip cookies and iced latte were fabulous! I look forward to coming back soon and trying their alcoholic cupcakes & other treats :)
Went here from the Tik Tok by Keith Lee and rolled up around 10:30am which is sorta early for bakeries! Door was locked due to the staff prepping and the owner came out to let me in and she was so so nice and happy! She explained why the door was locked (love this) and showed me what she had for this time of morning and I asked her to choose the cupcakes for me aside from the Henny cupcakes I have to share with a friend of mine:-) So far the cupcakes I have had are so tasty and fresh. The customer service is unmatched!!! I’ve definitely went into bakeries in the same area and have felt as if I were bothering the staff so please go here for their tasty treats and friendly faces ❤️
The cookies are out of this world!!! I had the Chocolate Sablé, Oatmeal Cranberry Coconut and Brooklyn Cowgirl Cookies. Loved every bite. The owner is cool and the vibe in the bakery is dope, a comfortable place if you want to watch daily life at the window or enjoy your goodies on the bench out front. Will most definitely be returning.
I love this place so much. They had biscoff vanilla, funfetti, and chocolate cupcakes that were so good and then black sesame fig and ube cupcakes I didn’t get to try. I will be getting every birthday cake here from now on.
So much love for this bakery! The cookies, cakes and pies are made with love! The owner is so sweet & the energy from everyone is so wholesome. Makes you feel like your with family, just jokes & laughs ❤️❤️❤️
I give this Bakery a five star rating for three reasons. The first reason is because of the beautiful personality the owner of this place .any time of the day I or my friends walk into this establishment we get smiles. The second star would go to how neat and clean the bakery is kept. And the last star the food is absolutely wonderful I had a snickerdoodle cookie never had it ever a day of my life before .I'm glad I had it here with a nice hot cup of coffee that I walked in with it did the trick. I strongly suggest you ask for snickerdoodle cookies and a chocolate cupcake or was it double chocolate I forget but I'm going to safely say a double chocolate slice of cake. You'll thank me later
Mmmm Yum! The Hennessy Vanilla cupcake I had with an espresso was so enjoyable. My friend and I sat in intimate and communal the covered partitioned off street seating. The shop and owner are warm and welcoming. There are intricately decorated chocolate covered Oreos on the counter, mini cupcakes in the window and many flavors of cupcakes against the wall and there where signs for ordering larger cakes as well.
BOOZY BITES!!! Why would anyone eat anything else here... THEY have had the red velvet, vanilla, and chocolate... I carried these minis home to NC in a cooler to share with my family. Everything looks good- cupcakes, etc... but this is NYC. And you will not find a better place to eat it!!! YUM! We went first thing after the noontime rush and there was no line either way it's worth the wait.
I found out about this gem of a bakery while watching NY1 earlier this year, Kim was being interviewed and I was so impressed. I live in Florida and a few days later I ordered several varieties of cookies and they were absolutely delicious. I'm ready to order some more for the holidays
Cupcakes and cookies were delicious.
I bought some mini cupcakes for my daughter’s class. The kids loved them, the cupcakes were very delicious. The owners were very generous with my order and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you!
BOMBBBB!!!! My customized Breakfast order was definitely not on the menu and they were able to make it for me and it was better than I could’ve made it. The customer service was phenomenal and the cupcake was absolutely amazing! Soft and fresh!
I and my daughter visited more than once, a phenomenal experience. Excellent customer service, makes you feel welcomed. The owner is absolutely pleasant, always willing to serve. Makes you feel like family, we love 💘 it here. And look forward to coming by again very soon of course!😊🌷💜
We bought a red velvet cake for my friend's housewarming and everyone enjoyed it. Baked to perfection 👌🏾
The chocolate chip cookie was so delicious! Would *highly* recommend stopping by!
I had the vegan oatmeal and vegan salted caramel cookie. So delicious. Sparked up a combo with the owner and found out he DJ'S. Cookies and convo are an awesome combo. Definitely stop in for a taste.
Everything was perfect. Kim was an amazing baker and offered so much wonderful insight on what and how I should order, keeping my budget in mind. The bakery was so conscious of making sure that I got exactly what I needed. They were so quick, kind. AND the cake was DELICIOUS. Everyone loved it and complimented. Can't wait to eat more treats. Do not pass this place up.
Amazing cookies, excellent cakes (had a cake baked here 24hrs before it was needed and it was delicious), and super friendly and helpful counter servers! The owner of the shop, Kim, is almost always around, she’s super awesome and welcoming to her customers! Definitely recommend checking this place out if you haven’t already!!
Went to the BAKERY on Bergen after reading about Akim's story on Instagram. We ordered empanadas (which were warmed up for us in the air fryer, we were offered a side of sriracha with it which we gladly accepted), blueberry cupcake, cowgirl cookie, and the pink lemonade. Everything was delicious, especially the empanadas and cookie. The empanadas were flaky and seasoned so well. The cookie hit the sweet/savory spot. We're so excited to go back for more empanadas and to try out more of the sweets. Customer service was also amazing, we were offered samples of some of the cookies before we decided what to order.
Wow, WOw, and WOW again. From the minute I went in, I saw the fabulous Kim. What a blessing she is and so pleasant. I had a strawberry cupcake which I am still tasting. The whipped cream on top was so light and the cupcake not overpowering with sugar. I am definitely recommending this Bakery and will be purchasing on a larger scale. I must mention Luis who was also a pleasure and funny. He made the visit even more special for he is full of hidden nuggets 😉. Thanks again. May God keep, cover and continue to flourish this business.
This has got to be my favorite bakery in Brooklyn. It isn’t just that the baked goods are delicious and beautifully crafted— because boy are they. But the Bakery on Bergen is a special community space that brings people together and includes all, from their community events and classes to the very ingredients they use. My friends and I have purchased 3 birthday orders from the Bakery on Bergen within the last few years, and this year was the most special by far. When I asked if it would be possible to order something gluten free, vegan, nut free, and egg free, the owner, Akim responded “absolutely!” My birthday cake could not have been tastier, but I was mostly blown away by how without hesitation Akim took on the project of making something equally delicious for my friend who has more than a few allergies. I recommend this bakery to all people, because there really is something for everyone. The Bakery on Bergen is also a woman owned, Black owned, Asian owned business! Support women and support your neighborhood bakery. It never disappoints!
I I really have to leave a review. So the first time I came here .. The owner was very kind sweet and nice. The bakery was on top top shape and organized. One thing is that there’s nothing for tasteful than something memorable. I mean the cookies 🍪 here are just absolutely delicious 🤤 this woman is a gift from heaven when it comes to making sweet treats.. I highly recommend coming here! I need to come too 😩😭
A fab neighbourhood spot with beautiful energy, such a kind owner, and the most delicious double choc chip cookie 🍪
The Bakery on Bergen is more than a bakery; it’s an emblem of community, love and camaraderie. From the delicious treats and coffee to the incredibly dynamic people you’ll meet, each visit to the Bakery is its own adventure. If you haven’t already, this is your sign to stop by!!!
What can I say the cupcakes are everything 🧁. They are super moist and light and delicious 😋. The owner is super welcoming and she makes these cupcakes with love💕. Definitely a fan and will be going back for more.
The Bakery on Bergen is an awesome combination of cupcakes, community, and culture! Each time we enter the shop, we are greeted with warmth and consideration. The cookies, cupcakes, and baked goods are all delicious!
This bakery is a gem! The service is so kind, and the place is cozy. I tried the vanilla rum cake and it was amazing. The texture was perfect. Is big enough to share. The chocolate cookie was soo good. Esta panadería es excelente! Prueban el Keke de vanilla con Ron!
The bakery has a very cozy field to it. The owner is very welcoming and I got to try her vanilla Bourbon cake. I had to get the whole entire thing after that I highly recommend this place.
One of the most incredible hidden gems of cupcakes in New York!! I randomly stumbled across this place while recovering from my foot surgery, not only was the owner super sweet and accommodating to my needs, the cupcakes were absolutely delicious!! you know you can tell when something is made with love and these cupcakes were just that!! with magnolia’s losing its shine and luster over the years, I can happily say I have found their life long replacement! Come to The BAKERY ON BERGEN you won’t be disappointed! Also the expresso was nice and strong and full of flavor!! I will be back!!
Just had the best customer service experience, cookie AND cupcake of my life. The woman who owns this place is so kind, helpful, and really cares about her customers. I felt the love the moment I walked in. Also, holy cow!!! The baked goods are incredible!!!! I’m normally not a cupcake person but the banana cream with chocolate looked so tempting... just had to go for it and I’m extremely happy with my decision making. If you’re in the area or need desserts for a birthday, baby shower, whatever, this is your spot!!!!!
What can I say ? Hmmm…. Ms. Kim is an AMAZING soul. Meeting her in person, she embodies what a business owner should be. Ms. Kim took the time to speak with my son (a Toddler) and I. She could relate to me not only as a person but as Mother. I came in originally looking for Vegan options for my Sons class party. She took her time to speak to us. She didn’t just treat us as just customers. It felt like I was visiting my Aunts Bakery. Ms Kim’s welcoming presence with that smile makes you want to just sit and chat all day. The Bakery on Bergen has an excellent selection of Cupcakes. From Vegan to Gluten free she literally has something for EVERYONE ! Her Vanilla cupcake was to die for. Not overly sweet, just enough sweetness for Mama and her Toddler. I also had the Gluten free cupcake, mannnn that thang was HITTING ! Ms. Kim you are a truly gem. I pray you and your business continue to thrive. Thank you for helping Mama out on short notice. You are APPRECIATED🫶🏽
Their cookie was soft, chocolatey, and had sea salt on it. Delicious Was it worth the $5.50? Not sure, but everything is overpriced these days. Apologies for the photo, my mouth took some bites before my camera ate.
I had a vegan funfetti birthday cake made here last weekend and it was AMAZING! Everyone commented on how good it was and were shocked when I said it was vegan. The owner was great to work with and even went out of her way to allow me to pick it up during usually closed hours. Really appreciate it and definitely recommend this bakery to everyone!
Vanilla biscotti cake...!!! They came through for me in a pinch. I needed a last minute birthday cake for my son's 30th birthday. After singing happy birthday then serving the cake, all I heard was mmmmm... and the smacking of lips.. I will continuously patronize this business and I will surely spread the word. THANK YOU 😊

My partner and I ordered a cake sampler of 5 mini cakes to celebrate our anniversary. Kim was so kind and professional over email, and she made setting up our order and delivery a breeze. We tried the following flavors: Brooklyn Blackout, Mexican Hot Chocolate, Hennessy Red Velvet, Mandarin Orange, and Chai Latte. They were all exceptional, but the standout was their slightly-spicy Mexican Hot Chocolate cake. We loved how you could taste the real butter in the icing and how none of the flavors were overly sweet. We will definitely be coming back here next time we need a cake for an event!
We stopped in close to closing time to grab a few cupcakes and were welcomed right in! The service was amazing and the owner was unbelievably kind! The cupcakes were perfect, but the peanut butter cookie blew my mind! Probably the best I’ve ever had! We will definitely be coming back for all our sweet treat needs!
I wanted to write this review to give the Bakery on Bergen and the wonderful owner, Akim, her much deserved praise and flowers. Akim has been super accommodating with my requests for vegan, nut-free cakes and she knocks it out the park each time. My friends have dietary restrictions and severe nut allergies and they rave about the ube and thai iced tea flavored cakes. I ordered custom cakes twice this year and will be ordering again in the near future. Thank you so much Akim for being so professional, responsive, and creating wonderful allergen-friendly cakes. Just fab all around.
Amazing bakery in the neighborhood. I went to get a custom Mexican Chocolate cake for my partner’s birthday and it turned out fantastic! Kim I’m was so great to work with, asking about their flavor preferences, and had the cake ready at perfect time
Had a wonderful experience ordering a vegan cake. Not only was it constructed in a lovely way, but the buttercream was probably the best vegan buttercream I’ve had as a 10 year vegan! Better than many of the vegan bakeries I’ve been to! A great moist vanilla cake and the service was fantastic. Highly recommend if you need a local bakery for a great vegan celebration treat.
We found this adorable little bakery while running from a sudden downpour—and honestly, I’m so glad we got caught in the rain! The owner was there and instantly made us feel warm, welcome, and right at home. I sipped on the most comforting matcha tea, while my husband enjoyed a coffee. We couldn’t resist treating ourselves to a chocolate sea salt cookie that was pure joy in every bite. I especially loved how she took her time explaining all the homemade baked treats such as cupcakes, cookies or rum cake (everything looked amazing!). This charming little spot will warm your heart—and your belly!
Words don’t suffice to describe how kind and personable Kim is! Cutest bakery with a homey, treat you like a family-friend feel, and delicious! I ordered red velvet, gluten free/dairy free cupcakes and they were DELICIOUS. Moist, not too sweet, just perfect bites. Didn’t have that grainy feel some gf cupcakes can have. My guests said they were the BEST they have had(and they’ve tried manyyyy all over in NY, NJ, CT)
amazing bakery. and the buttah… so good. akim is the owner. she’s a great baker.

Would highly recommend ordering or going to this bakery. Loved their oatmeal cookies and cupcakes. Can't go wrong with whatever cupcakes you get, but I would recommend the blueberry cupcakes.

Very nice Black owned bakery Small and inviting with a good selection of tasty treats.
I love the vibe of this spot. We totally went in because of the sign that said, "Come in for some Asian black girl magic!" Lol! We had the signature chocolate chip cookie with smoked salt and another cookie that was a chocolate chip cookie that had pretzels and potato chips in it. We got the rum cake with the sauce on the side because my boyfriend doesn't drink and that was a good call because there's a lot of rum in that sauce. I like the texture of the rum cake great for soaking up the sauce on my piece.
Cute bakery they sell cookies cupcakes gluten free brownies homemade lemonade tea coffee and vegan German chocolate cake. If you have a sweet tooth definitely need to visit them.
Tried your red velvet cake recently at a friend's house warming and it was delish, great texture, not too sweet, loved the icing 👌🏽
The Gluten Free Options could be better. The presentation is beautiful, however the taste and texture of their gluten free cupcakes need improvement! My friend ordered cupcakes that were NOT gluten free and she said they were pretty good. 3 stars...
The cupcake wasnt bad but $6 for a small instant mix cupcake with possibly homemade icing is crazy.
Recently, I visited Brooklyn,NY, to see the Jay-Z exhibit, and while in the city, I decided to visit businesses Keith Lee approved. Before heading to the airport I decided to visit the bakery to take some cookies back to Atlanta, GA. I was greeted by the store manager Louis who was very friendly while Akim was working with another customer. She smiled and said hello. Louis proceeded to show me the cookies they had available as he had to bake some more. I purchased three cookies (2) chocolate chip with sea salt and (1) Asian Sweet potato cookie. I was disappointed as they did not look like the cookies Keith Lee purchased and described. The cookies he purchased were crispy on the edges and chewy in the center. I purchased what I describe as cake cookies thick and dense.

Thursday at 2pm and they are closed?
Read a review on my neighborhood brief that this was the go-to spot for bagels, and like the foodie that I am; I gave the Bakery on Bergen a shot of my patronage. I stopped by on 12/12, in the mid-afternoon. The 🥯 's were not what I would write home about and that was okay with me. What was not acceptable was the lackluster service that was administered. The two women servers were dead-pan boring and not engaging pleasantly with the two customers waiting to be served. I get it that times can be tough, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. Nonetheless, a little smile, and kindness can go a long way. Just as when they applied for employment, they hoped and prayed to be hired. That same level of hope and hype is helpful for sustainable development and growth. Not to mention that like iced coffee, Bagels spots 😋 are not scarce. Like the song by the late, great Wilson Pickett "Try a Little Tenderness". Thank you.
I visited the bakery on Bergen yesterday and thought I had a good experience only to find a roach inside one the cupcakes sups disappointed and disgusted #nevereathere
Everything is high priced. The cookies I can understand, bcuz they r big. But the cupcakes r not worth the price for the size they r. And then $65 for a pie?! That's just crazy.
I was so excited to visit this black own neighborhood bakery. I waited in line as the owner took orders .Once I let her know that I was picking up a Too Good to Go order the owner immediately became annoyed and rude. I was appalled and taken aback since she was so warm and friendly to the customer in front of me. I felt very uncomfortable and the owner, Akim Vann gave off a vibe that I didn't belong in her establishment. I'm not sure if I caught her on a bad day or she was projecting her dissatisfaction with her Too Good to Go partnership on me but none the less her behavior was unwarranted. The owner really needs to work on her customer service skills. I also read some similar experiences customers had interacting with her on Yelp which I wish I read before I visited the establishment. I will never patronize Bakery on Bergen again. Too Good to Go app lovers BEWARE. Your discounted cookies comes with a side of attitude and aggression. Totally not worth it!
I popped in here for a sweet treat on my way home and all I can say is the owner is RUDE & distatesful . As a native New Yorker, it's disappointing to see a business that prides itself of being "black owned" have such poor customer service and treatment towards its black customers. She's a very hostile woman, who can't answer simple questions about her baked goods, without being rude or condescending. I will be sure not to spend money here again and you shouldn't either — disregard any generic PR response to this message.
Some of the driest, overly bland and just bad baked goods I’ve eaten. The people working are rude as ever (probably because of how I look) and the place smells like spoiled milk. Eating from the trash would be a better choice.
Went to pick up an order during the businesses operating hours and within my designated time slot and the store was closed. Tried calling multiple times while I was out front but no answer. Having to follow up with app customer service to try and resolve.
The cupcakes had very little flavor and were too oily. Don’t let the ratings fool you. Worst cupcake I’ve had in a long time and were 5 dollars each.
I went to my girlfriend’s 70th birthday party on 2/16. I had three different occasions to have cake from this establishment. Last night was the worst. The cake was so dry it was not even eatable. I have no idea what happened. But I will never buy anything from the bakery again.
I ordered a birthday cake for my 70th celebration. I was so disappointed. The cake was dry and had no taste. None of my guests ate the cake. Everyone complained and I felt so bad. I had the vanilla cake with the strawberry filling. Horrible
