Pao Da Terra is one of my favorite bakeries in New Jersey, they have a great selection of bakery and lunch menu. I love their coffee!! the tables are always clean. I love the Portuguese vibes in this place!!!
Nice and cozy place staff is very friendly 😊 didn't stay long but had a good time. And let's talk about the sweet 😋 treats so many varieties and all look sooo good. I had a hot chocolate with almond croissant. Will definitely go back .
Order their large 'bolo de bolacha' and it was everything that I wanted!! Delicious and sumptuous!
As someone born and raised in Portugal 'Pão de Terra' is as close as you get to experience Portugal! I drive from Philadelphia to Newark to get their desserts.
Side note on the large 'bolo de bolacha': As I was driving back to Philadelphia, I had to make a hard brake because of a fast changing traffic light... From 55mph to 0, the cake box flies from the backseat into the back of my seat, and it survived all in one piece! Incredible!, never seen a cake that could withstand something like that. Just had a little indentation on one side.
Update: Ordered 3 cakes that were going to be for the celebration of 3 birthdays. Once again the quality of the cakes was outstanding and they were still fresh after 2 days of being in my fridge (I blocked any air from getting out of the boxes with tape and put them inside big ziplock bags).
See pictures of the cakes 2 days, 02Nov2021, after I picked them up.
