Whisk It All Cafe & Bakery — Restaurant in Glen Ridge

Whisk It All is such a charming café and bakery — I was honestly blown away by how good everything was. I ordered the lemon blueberry scone, the MJ panini, and a cold brew with brown sugar, and each item really stood out in its own way.

The scone deserves a special shoutout — it was perfectly baked, soft with just the right amount of crumble, and the lemon-blueberry flavor combo was fresh and bright. I could eat one of these every morning and never get tired of it. The MJ panini was just as impressive: warm, fresh, and packed with flavor. The sun-dried tomatoes added this subtle sweetness that tied everything together beautifully.

The cold brew with brown sugar wasn’t quite my personal favorite, but that just comes down to preference — I’ll definitely be trying another drink next time. With food this good, I know their whole menu is worth exploring.

On top of that, the café itself is adorable. The inside is cozy and welcoming, and they even had K-pop Demon Hunters playing, which gave it such a fun vibe that I decided to sit and enjoy my meal instead of taking it to-go.

Can’t wait...

I found out about this bakery because it was right across the street from the restaurant I was having my baby shower at. We decided to order a cake from them since prices were pretty reasonable. On the day of, we also tried their ube matcha lattes, and it was a nice pick me up to have while setting up for the shower. Drink prices are also very reasonable! They don't offer cake delivery but since the restaurant was right across, they offered to walk the cake over for us. I worked directly with Melanie and she was very graceful with accepting all of my changes (i.e. switching to a bigger cake, and changing flavors). They have a lot of different cake filling and flavor combinations and can suggest combos that will go well together. We ended up picking an ube cake (first bakery I've seen to offer an ube cake!) with cannoli filling. I wish it had more chocolate chips, but it was still very good - and not too sweet. It was very unique and it was a hit with all...

As I was walking home this morning, I saw this storefront with people coming in and out. When I got closer I saw that it was a cafe and bakery so, of course, I went in to check it out. The interior is a cozy space with a few small tables and a comfy couch against the wall. The pastries looked delicious and bought two scones - lemon poppy and lemon blueberry. Both were so good - dense without being heavy and not too sweet. The poppy seed had an edge of saltiness that I happen to like. The owners (?) were warm and friendly. I can definitely see myself spending a morning there enjoying tea and a scone. Most important is my ongoing commitment to support small businesses owners. Let’s make sure...
