Always a hit! Haven't been here in some time but I love the coffee, where I found it was just " ok" before. It's mild but rich and the food is always so good. I tried the egg and avocado toast with feta and it was perfect. I would go back for sure. Kudos to the pretty blonde girl today!

I wound up only ordering a coffee on my visit to GFG Bakery Cafe, which I can say was rich and robust. I was also impressed by their selection of lunch and breakfast items, offering much more than simple pastries. From avocado toast to Greek yogurt parfaits to sandwiches, there was really something for everyone. I will need to go back to see what I missed!

Cool spot, good coffee, Greek pastries, sandwich and salad, awesome tea selections, and sissy's efficient service here. Must have been our 7th visit on the last 2 trips. Just about 3 blocks from the W Hoboken.

TLDR: Greek cafe with many sweet and savory options, also has wifi and outlets. Spacious and clean. Would love to come back and try more! There's also a rewards program if you're a frequent customer. Wednesday Breakfast (8:30am-12:30pm)Table for 2 ~~~~~FOOD~~~~~ *spanakotiropita (~$7?) - Larger size than I expected! - They toast it before serving, so it's nice and warm. The phyllo dough had a little crunch on the outside, but was not overly flakey and falling apart, so I enjoyed it - Tasty and good for a light breakfast or snack, but kept me full for the whole time I was there - Halfway through, I sliced through paper and realized there was some parchment paper stuck underneath that had not been removed. Extra nutrition! *iced mocha w/oat milk ($5+) - I usually can't finish coffee drinks, so the fact that I finished this must mean something :) - Other milk options available for my fellow lactose intolerants (although I did eat cheese in my pastry) ~~~~~AMBIANCE~~~~~ - Clean, spacious, and bright - Quiet for the most part, they do play (clean) pop music and noise level is also subject to the customers present - Felt like your average cafe - Was able to stay here for 4 hours and do some work and saw the place get busy, but never felt overcrowded ~~~~~SERVICE~~~~~ - We were greeted by the cashier once we came in - The only menu I saw was for drinks, so you can look at their menu online or go through all their pastries and see what you'd like - After we ordered, the workers went to prep the food/drinks and I awkwardly stood there before going back to my table (located near the register). And they ended up bringing the food to us! ~~~~~CLEANLINESS~~~~~ - Automatic hand sanitizer dispenser at the door - Plexi glass at the register - Disinfecting wipes on top of the trash and recycle bins - Plastic wrapped/packaged utensils at the front - Bathrooms looked clean for the most part. The one on the left has a diaper changing station, and the one on the right has a broken lock - Masks are required and are also worn by workers, although I did see one of the workers behind the register have their mask pulled down under their chin

I'm all for any place I can grab a frappe and baklava with ease. And it is OFFICIALLY frappe season. This place is big and beautiful and spacious so I like to sit and enjoy my coffee for a bit rather than take it on the go. And like most other Greek casual spots, they also have a little store where you can pick up your Greek teas and coffee mixes to take home with you. If you've never had a frappe, you've gotta just go right now. It's a Greek iced coffee basically. It's made with instant coffee that is blended with a bit of water to make a very frothy top. After you have enough foam you add milk and sugar and you have the perfect summer drink. I can seriously drink them exclusively when the weather is warm. The staff is all very friendly, the space is clean and there are a lot of options. For literally everything, but especially desserts. I've only gone a few times and never for anything more than a coffee and pastry, but love that that's become an option in Hoboken. I love weekends in Hoboken and have loved them even more since GFG became part of the neighborhood.

Delicious greek bakery and as authentic as you will find in america in terms of taste. If you want a taste of something you normally would not find in america order the bougatsa. There is the savory and sweet one. Order the sweet one it is magnificent. Get it with sugar/cinnamon on it. It is a fillo pastry with a creamy sweet custard inside. It has the perfect balance of flavor but isnt necessarily the healthiest thing. We also tried the tiropita (cheese pie) which was also awesome. You know when a tiropita is bad when the cheese is salty but this was not. It was well balanced and great. I will say it is definitely overpriced and that is one of the only issues i had. If we are comparing authenticity in terms of price this does not compare to a real greek bakery. A real greek bakery is an "every-mans" place where you can get great pastries at a good price. I understand we are in america so that is why i did not penalize the place too much. I would recommend this place for anyone wanting an authentic taste of greece but bring your wallet!! The prices are a little expenisive but with the skilled labor and rent I can understand. This is not a place you can come every day but it is a place worth visiting every week.
