“We recently have had Pastosa and Uncle Giuseppe’s open in our area and they are excellent but Nino Jr will always be my favorite. The employees are friendly and will go above and beyond to make me what I’m looking for, even if it is not in the case. Just a wonderful local business.“
“Adorable place. The 4 of us got breakfast here Easter Sunday. The tofu scramble was awesome no fake cheese or unnecessary ingredients. We enjoyed the crunch wrap and the waffle was insanely good you good tell it was fresh and it was dense. We also had the chick’n which we enjoyed and the tempeh bacon. After we did take home peanut butter and cookie doe truffles which were shockingly good. We will definitely be back and recommend this place highly.You pick up a menu at the entrance and order all up front and then the food comes out in to go boxes. You can eat there or outside seating“
“Been to this awesome shop many times. Last night I was gifted with free donuts ?. OMG HANDS down the best I've had. I'm glad I saved rhem from being discarded. A BIG thank you to the nice guy working there. This place is a must. Enjoy ?“
“One of the best bakeries in NJ. You cannot go wrong with a single item. The fruit and cream brioches are my favorite. They are topped with seasonal fruit and are so fresh. The coconut cream donut may have been the best donut I’ve ever had. The scones are so delicious. The macarons are another favorite. Unique flavors and they are the size of your palm. I travel over an hour (each way) to get here and I promise you it’s worth the trip!“
“My last west coast trip spoiled me, and I'm on a quest to find amazing coffee near me (open to recommendations), so I'm trying new coffee places as much as I can. Busy Bee is inside a gas station, and has very good coffee. I had a caramel macchiato and it was a solid 7.5/10 (my coffee rating scale is as arbitrary as myself). There's also a generous collection of food offerings - I tried something similar to a deviled sausage (I didn't get its name) and it was delicious.“
“I was warmly greeted on my first visit today. Having eaten a pastry (for lunch!), and slicing up some sourdough for dinner I can say I'm torn between their savory and sweet choices. Fair prices, too, which don't reflect the Spring Lake 'tax' you often get charged in town!“
“Yesterday stopped in during a walk downtown to enjoy the beautiful weather. Staff was extremely friendly (as always) .Decided to try something new, so I had the Haulin Oats (Oatmeal Raisin Cookie). I must say as someone who loves Oatmeal Raisin Cookies…this was the absolute best I’ve ever had. Highly recommend, I’ve also tried their cupcakes and cinnamon rolls also very tasty. Never disappoints!“
“My family and I came in for the tea service and it was so fun! The vibes here are amazing and they had a really great selection of tea! I especially loved the wall of tea cups! The radish sandwich and chicken salad sandwich were the stars of the show followed closely by a black currant scone and the carrot and ginger soup. (The theme for the tea was beatrix potter) the tea service cost about $50 a person and in my mind was worth it!!“
“This cake supply store has everything you could possibly need and more. Any time I need a supply or a burst of inspiration I take a trip to shore cake supply. I recently ordered a custom cookie cutter I needed for a last minute order. Not only were they able to accommodate me but it was ready for me quickly and came out perfect. Thank you Shore Cake Supply!“
“This is one of the great ice cream places in America. They always have fresh and great-tasting ice cream. The staff is always friendly and effective. The place is always clean. They are good with kids and senior citizens. In short, I've been a customer for about 35 years and have never had a problem. You can't reasonably ask for more.“
“This place is amazing! Oodles and oodles of delicious treats! So much to choose from. I stopped in to get a gift for a sick friend. Kathleen helped me pick out the best they had. She was so “sweet” and helpful! Very much appreciated her great service. Will definitely be back!“
“My sil brought the party box over and omg the oatmeal mallow sandwich was amazing!!! The crumbl by me was not a great experience because the cookies were dry and a bit sweet, this location and getting 12 cookies proved me wrong that even though it is a chain, certain stores execute better than other. Would reco this and the oatmeal cookie, it's soft and chewy and so yummy“
“So thrilled to find a local gluten-free bakery in NJ. The staff were amazing and friendly. The baked items...... Well, let's just say my waist line isn't quite as small as when I entered. I will definitely be back every time I come back to visit family in NJ.“
“Hands down, best peanut butter chocolate combo cups/ball I've ever had in my life. My hubs and I hid the box from our teenagers. I've had the cookies, brownies, cupcakes, and brownie cookies. All really great. Highly recommend. The service was above and beyond as well. They even wrote to keep cold on 1 box, which was really helpful. Thank you, Cravings!“
“They were very attentive. Staff was amazing. They answered questions and helped me immediately. Besides the macaroons, the tarts, the cookies, and the quiche, the fruit parfait that I got was probably the best that I ever ate in my entire life. No lie!“
“I forgot to order our favorite spinach and bacon quiche from Sunburst Pie Co. to bring for Christmas brunch. Ran in at 9 am on Christmas Eve 2023, grabbing the last quiche, which was crabmeat and asparagus. What a hit! It was devoured and raved about. I will be ordering this for the holidays next year, for sure. We love their blueberry and choc chip scones too.“
“I absolutely love J&M bakery in Middletown, NJ! Their pastries are unmatched, and I can't imagine going anywhere else for baked goods. While I have respect for other local shops, J&M's pastries, especially the lobster tails, are to die for. The filling is divine, and you won't be disappointed. They are definitely a staple for my family on Sunday. And J&M's commitment to traditional Italian recipes and high-quality ingredients shines through in every bite. If you're in the area, make sure to stop by and taste the difference for yourself. J&M bakery is a true gem!“
“Tucked away on a side street in Spring Lake's downtown district, this charming bakery is a must visit. The ambience is chic, with some limited outdoor seating. Service was friendly. I ordered two cheesecake/coffee cake combo type pastries (I'm not sure of their name,) and they were incredible. I will definitely return on my next trip to Spring Lake. Love the name of the place, too!“
“This is THE bakery! It’s the only place I will get cakes for any family parties or birthdays. I am always pleasantly surprised by their new flavors, and am yet to find one that I don’t love. The girls inside are always super friendly and knowledgeable. Gotta try the new churro cake! It’s incredible. I won’t go anywhere else!“
“Studies show the Amazon will be gone in under 60 years. Brazilian beef is the #1 culprit. But this place sources from US beef distributors only. So it's not so bad. But still... try to eat less beef. It will drive down the price and demand of Brazilian beef imports.“
“The coffee was really good but the corn muffin I got was so stuck to the paper that it fell apart into pieces and was really hard to eat. It may have been a little dried out I'm not sure. The premises was clean and neat. I would come back.“
“This place is delicious, reasonably priced, and overall wonderful. The cakes, cookies and cupcakes are amazing and fresh. Same with the bread. Being a north jersey girl, I’ve had a hard time finding a good bakery around here and south but this by far is the best. Super tasty and authentic.“
“Highly recommend this place !!!This place is amazing! They offered the best coffee and juices which ı like most Monmouth Power It has carrot,pineapple,orange and ginger.Always the best attitude to its costumers. I just want to keep coming back to this place.???“
“I have had JB Couture Cupcakes from different events and everything was always so wonderful. She just made a smash cake and entire dessert table for my son’s first birthday party and everything was perfect! She was so great to work with, completely understanding of the concept and designs I wanted and went above and beyond in making sure everything was perfect for the day. Not only did everything look great, but her desserts are absolutely delicious! Everyone at the party raved about them, do not hesitate to JB Couture for your next event!“
“A bit overpriced but their ice cream flavors are rocking! They had a nice seating area outside, their facilities and shop was well kept and clean. Customer service was great! She was very patient with my daughters. I would definitely return to try their other ice cream flavors. Toasted stores ice cream cone was hands down like a campfire taste. You have the option to order any type of cookie or brownie to create your ice cream sandwich. We had a brownie sandwich which could two adults can eat.“
“I know a good bagel from years of working in Manhattan and the bagels here are as good as any I had in the City and adjacent boroughs. Fresh out of their ovens @ 6 AM you'll never get a better one unless you hit "Hot Bagels" in Oakhurst or the bagels from a place in Red Bank--sorry can't remember the name.“
“Ordered a”Frozen” theme birthday cake for my granddaughters 3rd birthday! It was such a hit. Absolutely beautiful, delicious cake. So happy this wonderful bakery is so close by. Can’t wait to visit this wonderful bakery again. Thank you so much for making my party a success!“
“So happy you guys reopened, a staple of my childhood! Best bagels at the Jersey Shore hands down, and now they offer delicious homemade spreads! I got the mini with Veggie cream cheese and that will be in my weekend rotation from now on. Also the entire place is sparkling clean. I can't believe its the same place. Bravo!!Vegetarian options: Limitless veggie options!“
“Goodquality Mexican food. Shrimp Diablo was quite tasty! Place was relatively busy but not hectic. Food is freshly prepared. Complimentary chips and salsa are the perfect accompaniment. Service was nice. The bakery display looked delicious. Will have to swing by for some pastries.“
“Kosher bakery with everything you can think of. They offer cakes, cookies, bread, challah, pastries etc... and even sell pizza and sushi. This bakery is the go to bakery in this town and is extremely popular. The pi,za and sushi can have very long waits in the summer especially during peak hours.Dietary restrictions: Fully kosher yashan pat n chalav yisraelParking: Easy to find parking on street on regular days. During peak season parking can be rough.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly“
“Not only are the baked goods delicious, but the woman who was working behind the bakery counter was such a kind soul. I was having lunch down the street at a place where there was no restroom, and I went into 2 other businesses asking to use the restroom and was turned away. When I came here, she let me use the restroom even though it wasn’t for the public, and then sent me home with a complimentary lemon bar. It was so unexpectedly nice - I wish more people ran their businesses this way.“
“These cookies are so easy to prepare. They start out as frozen balls of cookie dough that you arrange on the included parchment paper then bake! After just 15 minutes, you have the perfect chocolate chip cookie. Moist and chewy with melted chips inside and a crisp, golden cookie finish on the outside. Delicious and made right here in NJ. Buy local, eat deliciousness!“
“Today was my first day going to Hot Bagel and I thought the bagel was very good. I ordered a plain bagel with jalapeno cream cheese but unfortunately there was not much cream cheese on the bagel. The bagel with the jalapeno cream cheese was very good, I just wish there was more cream cheese on it. Next time I will just ask for extra. The restaurant was very clean with a very cool atmosphere. The workers were very friendly and helpful. When I was ordering I did not realize that they did not have a kitchen to make a bagel sandwich, such as bacon and egg. It would be nice to see them add that element to the business because I think more people would come for those type of sandwiches. With that being said I still did enjoy my breakfast from there and if you're in the area I suggest you give them a try for yourself. If you like my review please give me a thumbs up and a follow for more. Cheers“
