“This is my favorite new spot to grab lunch in Bethany Beach. The sandwiches are absolutely delicious and filling. It’s super important to me to have a food spot with clean nutritious ingredients for a great price. The service was fantastic and the employees were super friendly! My fav sandwich is the prosciutto Brie herb butter. It’s a must try!“

“Very cute cafe, loved the cold brew.“

“This is hands down our absolute favorite spot in Bethany Beach! We have a home nearby, and pretty much every bike ride to the beach includes a stop at Defebos Market to pick up some goodies for the day.

You really can’t go wrong with any of their hoagies or paninis. Everything is so fresh and delicious! And the pastries… oh my goodness. You HAVE to try the lobster tail pastry, cinnamon roll, or berry and cream puff. They are seriously amazing!

And don’t even get me started on the homemade ice cream. So, so good!

I truly can’t say enough good things about this place. It has become one of our favorite parts of summer, and we look forward to coming back every season for all of our favorite treats. ❤“

“LOVE this place! It is our favorite lunch place. Everything is delicious. The muffins are wonderful!“

“We wanted a small wedding cake for just us to cut as a couple. The owner was so kind and let us try whatever we wanted, even working around multiple snow storms that delayed the process. The cakes were phenomenal and it was hard for us to choose just one flavor. Highly recommend.“

“We’ve been getting cakes and cupcakes here for more than 30 years. Even since we’ve moved away, my son doesn’t consider his birthday complete without a cake from Rita’s. Everything is amazing and it seems like they keep coming up with new deliciousness every-time we visit.“

“I stopped by the new location today for the first time. I purchased a couple of butter crumb cakes and a chocolate chip cookie. Delicious. Didn't last 10 minutes after I got home. Everything in the bakery looks amazing and the staff is very nice. Looking forward to going back soon to try some more goodies“

“I ordered cake and other sweets this past weekend! picked it up Friday for a graduation gathering that we were having at the beach when I first picked up the cake, I was worried that we would have a lot of dessert left over, but they demolished every single bit of it The cake was moist, very delicious and not too sweet. The brownies were to die for and of course, my favorite was the lemon squares and the cannolis. Will definitely be using if in the area!!!“

“I appreciate the gluten free options that are a part of the daily bake! The chocolate chip scones are wonderful!“

“Service great. Sticky bun was a bit dry. Pancakes were good, but mangos, peaches and pineapple are from a can so not the best fresh fruit. Garbage plate omelet is good, lots of vegetables and meat. The home fries are sliced potatoes. Fast with coffee and teas. Lots of pastries available and wish we had room to try more.“
