Kirshenbaum Cafe on Elm St. in Westfield is a true gem. I ordered what may be the best chocolate croissant I have ever tasted—and that’s saying a lot after traveling to many countries across four continents. The pastry was perfectly flaky, rich, and indulgent without being overly sweet.
Beyond the food, I can see that the café itself is a wonderful place to relax, meet friends, or just enjoy a quiet moment with great coffee and pastries. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff provided genuinely friendly and attentive service.
If you’re in NJ, Kirshenbaum Cafe is absolutely worth a visit. I’ll definitely be back! ☕
PS: I even posted a photo of my empty plate — that’s how good it was!

Kirshenbaums is a nice bakery/cafe. They offer artisan sandwiches and freshly baked breads, pastries and cookies. One of the better bakeries in the area.

Best slice of pie I have had in a very long time! I got the Key Lime and my partner tried the chocolate mousse with brownie slice. Amazing! And wonderful coffee, the winter special flavor toasted coconut caramel is ADDICTIVE. Highly recommend!

Delicious cakes. Yummy espresso. So impressed with the Black Forest cake moist, well balanced and incredibly delicious. The passionfruit cruffin is fantastic!! It reminds me of the famous Cronut only better! The filling is bright and creamy. Recently tried their hand pies which are flaky and savory. I got the Taylor ham and cheese which is a spin on a classic NJ breakfast staple. The more I try the more impressed I become. The staff is warm and friendly. Can’t wait to try more of their offerings. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would!

Tasty cake and warm atmosphere 😀
I visited this place 2 times with my friend.
Each time, I really feel impressed of their cakes. Not too sweet but tasty. I think that’s why many moms bring their kids to this place 🙂
I like their atmosphere too. I can feel warm and peaceful air. I am not saying their chair is so comfortable so I don’t wanna leave this place haha. However this place is quite good to enjoy your tea time.
Coffee is okay. I didn’t try other beverages so I cannot tell.
All the staff is very kind 🙂
Overall, I love this place. Next time, I wanna try other cakes, too.

Lovely, cozy small bakery and coffee shop. Good place to get some coffee and baked goods, relax with friends, or find a cozy corner to work on your laptop. Always good to come here!

Cute cozy neighborhood cafe. They have a variety of offerings (donuts, pastries, cakes, sandwiches etc). It’s a little expensive but that is expected for the quality of their goods. I’ve tried several different items over a few trips and loved each one. The inside is very nice, great place to meet up with friends or hangout. I haven’t tried their drinks yet but that’s next on my list! Will be back for sure 🙂

What a lovely discovery! I went here for coffee and dessert after lunch one day with my family. The interior is pleasant and relaxing, the service was friendly. But by far the best part was the quality of their products.
At first I thought it was a bit expensive, but once we started eating, I changed my mind: the price is on point for the quality and craftsmanship you receive. We tried the key lime pie, carrot cake, and passion fruit lemon bar, and everything was amazing. The coffee was also really good!

If I could give a 6/5, I would. Everything was lovely. The workers were so friendly. The coffee was perfect, not too sweet or strong. The food was clearly homemade with care. And the place was immaculate. Wish I had gone here sooner

They have a good selection of teas and the desserts are delicious.
