Great pastries, really fresh and clean. Owner was very nice and friendly and very passionate about his business and what he sells and he brings authentic cheeses from Germany for one of a kind taste.

You will not find better baked goods in Hoboken than at The Old German Bakery. I absolutely love the authentic German apple pie and raspberry cheesecake. Stop by and pick up a sweet treat for yourself or a loved one in your life. You won't be disappointed.

A delightful and authentic German bakery. Great variety and always tastes fresh. The folks who run it are super kind and happy to explain some of the more niche options. An asset to Hoboken!

Absolutely love the tomato pastry - it's my go to anytime I walk by and it's not a Monday. It's a flaky pastry pocket with tomato sauce and olive flavor.

In the past there had been a more Parmesan heavy version which I miss. But this savory one still hits the spot.

Also used to be some indoor seating but I get that the pandemic has changed things. Now it's stand outside the building which is still very charming.

There's all sorts of other sweet treats, also a fan of the chocolate pastries. Absolutely worth a visit.

This place has been open only with a cart in front of the actual bakery for at least past couple years I think. Not sure why they don’t accomodate customers into their bakery. Because it’s been only with a cart, I haven’t been curious enough to try out but grabbed couple of those pastries recently.

Pastry parts overall felt crunchy, thin, and little bit dry. Pastry itself was neither yay nor nay for me. I just imagined that’s how german style pastry is. I liked the flavor of savory tomato one but not so much for raspberry sweet cheese one. Latter had very subtle flavor of anything, so it wasn’t exactly spot on to my palate.

Simply love the place. A no frills, easy on pocket bakery serving the best authentic Germany desserts and bakery items. Family owned and operated and serving the fresh right out of oven. A must visit if you are in the neighborhood.

I recently visited Old German Bakery and was blown away by the amazing selection of German pastries, bread, cakes, and coffee. It was heartwarming to see that this is a family-run business, with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel like part of the family. I tried the Nutella croissant and it was absolutely delicious - the perfect balance of flaky pastry and rich Nutella filling. The bakery has so many options to choose from, and everything looked fresh and tempting. The staff were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about their products, and they truly made me feel at home. If you're in Hoboken and looking for a tasty treat, I highly recommend checking out Old German Bakery!

You have to try this bakery if you’re in the area cause I know if you’re a local you must know it. They have so many options: Bread, cakes, pastry. Just stop by and try it. My dad used to love the coffee so it must be good as well. I like that the cakes are not that sweet, it’s subtle which I like more. You can tell it’s a family business which makes it more adorable :)
