The Rugelach Shop

First of all these rugelach are delicious, we got a carrot cake to go. Met the owner and you can see his pride in product. I bought some to share at work too. You need to try it!

This place has the best rugelach I’ve ever had! I also tried most of their other baked goods and they’re all delicious! I’m not a big cheesecake fan, but their cheesecakes are awesome! Not too sweet and the texture is just right. Kevin, the baker/owner is super cool and friendly too. This spot is my favorite destination for my dessert needs. I highly recommend.

The "rugelach" tasted very fresh. You have to try the chocolate and raspberry. They are like little cookie/croissants with walnuts inside. Menu wasn't up yet, so I got a bit confused and had to ask what they had. I tried their coffee also, it definitely was just made and had a strong smooth taste. They also have cheesecakes that appear to be freshly made and very fruity. I didn't get a chance to try them. Maybe for next time. It also appears they will soon be making smoothies and drinks. Very spacey interior and juice bar. 👌 the owner was very nice. Prices are suitable for the current environment and reasonable prices. I also had the jersey turnpike smoothie, very tasty.

This place is amazing the service and the goods are top notch. I never had Rugelach before and without hesitation he gave us samples. I bought 8 of them. Even when leaving he added pecan sandies as quick samples. Worth the visit and will definitely be thought of when I want a treat. Give him a visit asap you won’t regret it!

Upon entering the Rugelach Shop, the delicious smell of baked goods filled the very spacey interior, along with their recently opened juice bar, where we were greeted by the owner, Kevin. The owner, while not of Jewish heritage himself, embraces and respects the richness of Jewish culinary traditions. From the traditional techniques passed down through gener
