Dragon AwesomeJuly 21, 2012Order online if you just want to get in the store for pics without waiting. However, you can't add anything else to your order.
Zhue EstradaDecember 18, 2014Nothing wow, the cakes are average. it's just because it's famous is cool, better go to the pizzeria in the corner: Basile's.
What's Good HereAugust 12, 2014The lines get very long here. Show Hoboken residency and you'll get to the head of the line.
Isaac RatcliffApril 9, 2013I watch Cake Boss all the time and im only a kid but i still bake cakes here at my house
Overrated and overpriced. Avoid the brownies--sweet and bland. Cupcakes are cold and somewhat dry. Lobster tail is good, but one is more than enough. Go at night to avoid the long line, ~8:30pm.
Victor MartinsNovember 3, 2015Some of the products were a bit too heavy on sugar and butter, but overall a great experience.
Anthony TownsendOctober 17, 2011Home of the "Cake Boss" from TV. stand in line for hours, or (rumor has it) show your driver's license with a Hoboken address to skip the line. Read more
Martha GarveyJanuary 1, 2011Cake Boss fans-looking for more love and cake in your life? Check out Shortcake, adorable dog up for adoption at water4dogs.com.
Jessica GeorgeOctober 25, 2011Totally impressed by the warm, friendly, and efficient customer service. I had a great experience in the shop!
- Jackie BandaAugust 2, 2010Go in May before the kids get out of school. Only a 5min wait. In July/August its about 1.5hrs. Try the chocolate covered strawberries & lobster tails! Yum!
If you're a Hoboken resident, make sure you sure your ID to get to the front of the line.
B ClostermanOctober 8, 2010The cannolis are the testament of a good or bad bakery. This one gets a fantastic review. Not however, now that cake boss is on TV the lines get disgustingly long. Plan your trip accordingly.
Seamus Coffey GallagherSeptember 18, 2011Unless you live in Hoboken dont wait in live because you can skip the line if you have proof you live in Hoboken!- Derek PurdyFebruary 14, 2010The treats here are awesome, but the lineup around the corner to get in isn't ;( we waited an hour outside in the cold. But once we were inside everyone was so friendly, even Buddy came down to say Hi
valdine langApril 2, 2013When will u be opening a store in South Africa we also was the Carlos Bakery Magic
Ray ShiApril 28, 2013It must be a very famous bake shop! Get in a looong line, and ready for the good stuff!
Abhijeet SethiNovember 8, 2010don't forget the nut bars while u munch those awesome cannolis, which btw come in two sizes
Bryan NyeNovember 24, 2012Make sure to check your order before they tie up your box. I spent a good amount of money only to find out they never gave me 4 Cannolis I paid for!
Rita RiveraAugust 22, 2011I thought this would be all hype, but the cannoli here really are delicious. wowza!
- ᴡ HirschJune 7, 2011Luv the cupcakes! Get there first thing in morning before the buses pull up and unload.
Marissa L.🌟February 11, 2012Cupcake quality does not even compare to Crumbs (a few blocks down Wash). Cookies are great but I feel like its mostly a lot of hype.
Rita AlvesApril 18, 2013Hello, my name is Rita, I live in Brazil and I am huge fan of Buddy and the entire team at Carlo's.
- E DareMarch 25, 2012Skip the line, go to Carlos cake boss cafe @ discovery times square. Cakebosscafe.com. Hoboken has 100+ people in line always, incl now.
Evie DSeptember 29, 2011You have to wait on the opposite block, then they Flag you over get a number & you can go in then
Lori SAugust 1, 2011The cake is mediocre and not worth the wait. The cannolis are good but there is an Italian bakery down the street far better. I have no understanding of people waiting hours to just walk into Carlos
