Gateaux Bakery And Cafe - Fort Lee

The owner is a very cute older woman. We ordered two coffees one iced and one hot with almond milk. We were not impressed with the coffee and really couldn't finish it. Price was decent. You can save 4% if you pay in cash. Love supporting small businesses but hope they can improve their coffee. The place definitely has odd seating and didn't have a vibe to chill hang.

She gave me wrong bubble tea and got mad. Terrible!

I really want to like this place but it just seems lacking in so many ways. The best quality is its location in the middle of Main Street accessible after a meal at a local restaurant for coffee or dessert. There's some slim pickings of pastries, the rear has a few tables and chairs but not many and certainly aren't comfortable (folding chairs). Can't comment on the food as I'm not a bakery person but maybe that's their redeeming quality, although it seems they outsource most of their baked goods if you ask me. It is definitely looking like a mom and pop family owned store though so i wish them well.

I've been coming here for years. Managed by a lovely old couple. The cafe is small and narrow and they have cakes, pastries and some drinks that look like they get from the Gauteux bakery in Closter. I wouldn't recommend this bakery as a place where you can chat and enjoy but more like a quick pick up type of a place. I like their bubble tea. Portion is huge and still cheaper than other bubble tea shops that easily charge over $5.50 to even $7 for a large size these days.
