The bakery goods are pretty good but I am taking away a star for inconsistent and sometimes poor service. The younger ladies who work there need customer service training. But otherwise, a good selection for a small local bakery.
My wife works at Chilton Hospital and wanted a box of donuts and a cup of coffee from this bakery delivered on Sunday while she was in a shift. The bakery has over 50 years of history and the staffs there were quick, decent, and cordial. Not sure if they make less batches of things they make on Sunday compared to other days if the week, but there were only 2 donuts available to buy. I chose to buy other portioned breads as substitution. A box of breads and two cups of medium size coffee set me back a little over 22 dollars. I felt the prices were reasonable.
This bakery is truly impressive and offers a fantastic selection! They are renowned for their crumb cakes, donuts, and cookies. Everything is made from scratch on-site. I have to highlight their signature crumb cakes—they are, without a doubt, the best in all of New Jersey! There are always three flavors available: powdered, frosted, and chocolate pudding crumb. If you’re ever in the area, these are a must-try. They're too good to miss, so make sure to stop by!
A good rule of thumb is not to go to a bakery late in the day, but at Packanack Bakery, it does not matter when you go, it is always great. What a spread at this place, they have everything you want in a Bakery. Their signature Crumb Cake was as advertised and even better. Finally i found a true Bakery. Anytime I am in Wayne, this is my new go to sweet spot. Love this place.
