Choc O Pain French Bakery and Café - HOB 1st Street
157 1st St, Hoboken, NJ
Crema's Take
“Choc O Pain is a French bakery café in Hoboken that's genuinely hit-or-miss, but when they're on, their buttery croissants and carefully pulled espresso drinks shine—reviewers rave about their choc almond croissants and silky lattes, though quality seems inconsistent. The spot has a charming indoor-outdoor vibe with pleasant music and a relaxed neighborhood feel, though some visitors note the space can feel dated or dim depending on when you visit.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout. Outdoor seating spot. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Very nice cafe. The Latte was really good (very foamy). We had the Madeleine and they were a great choice if you want something small. The music is nice and not loud. Inside and outside sitting (but outside is very small). Definitely come by if you are around.
Got the iced vanilla latte with almond milk and it was 💯 It was almost closing time when I got there so couldn’t really try other things on the menu. It did feel a bit gloomy inside however, not sure if it was the low lights or the weather outside. Anywho, coffee was great so…
