Choc O Pain French Bakery and Café - Jersey City Heights - Jersey City, New Jersey

Hope T

We had breakfast here for 2 days and takeaway once for tea break during our short stay along the same street. The frequency of our visits should indicate the quality of both their bakes and service. My son had his first mocha latte here and it was meticulously prepared by a young French (?) gentleman. I’m impressed!

Choc O Pain keeps a good selection of French pastries and breads (at a higher cost than usual), it is also very comfortable with suitable seating, free Wi-Fi and outlets located near almost every seat. There's also the ability to view the bakery itself which is a really nice touch providing confidence that pastries and bread items are made on location.

I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars! Choc O Pain is the best cafe in the neighborhood. Their coffee and espresso are delicious. And their breads are soft, toasty and the best ones are filled with delicious chocolate.

I’m a huge fan of the Quiche Lorraine. Filled with ham, bacon and cheese, it’s the perfect breakfast to pair with coffee. & finally, their indoor seating areas have great vibes for working remotely. Love it!

Very Nice cafe in the heights. Perfect to work from. Always have nice French music playing in the background, sometimes Pop too haha. They’ve got wifi and are open until 5PM on all weekdays. I usually order the Cortado or Macchiato. The baked goods are also pretty amazing. Though I’ve only ordered Pistachio Macarons which are my absolute favorites though a teeny bit pricey and Almond Croissant.

This is our favorite choc o pain location. We had croissant amandes, escargot a la cannelle and financier today. Sometimes if you come late, these items sold out on weekends. Coffee is not that good here, but we do like the ambience, staff And the pastries, especially when it's not crowded.

Overpriced, stale croissants, little seating

They have good coffee, but the sweet breads are stale (often from the previous day).
There are very few seating opportunities, which is a lost opportunity because the interior decor is nice, and it would add value to the place if you could just come to sit down. Currently, they have only one regular table and a bar table with 4 chairs. The quality of the food does not justify the prices at all. The sweets are not fresh, and the regular bread is extremely overpriced ($18 for one loaf of bread?).
We had a coffee and 2 croissants and paid $15 for those 3 items.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend coming here. Coffee to-go is ok, but there is a much better coffee place up the street, in front of the park

This is a cafe located in Heights in Jersey city. I bike there from downtown Jersey city. The location is not the most convenient one but it is a good bakery in the area. The almond croissant is delicious and the staff is nice. There are a variety of bakery there and the environment is quiet in the cafe shop.
