Amazing vegan pastries, but unfortunately they are $8 each. I’m used to paying a premium for vegan food, but this price point is hard to swallow. As much as I loved the black and white cookie I purchased, I probably won’t be going back unless they can pull them into the $4-$5 range

They have a plentiful vegan selection for a non-vegan bakery. BUT so expensive! I'd rather have less of a selection for less money. We bought black and white cookie, apple crumb pastry and black and white cookie for $20!

Prices are high but quality is good. I love their elephant ears. Have tried a few other pastries with mixed success for my taste. Great location to get something, eat right outside on the mostly shaded tables on a hot day, or go walk to the gazebo down by the water across the parking lot. Coffee their and next door isn't to my liking so much so I usually get it from Wawa beforehand.

Pretty expensive, but pastries are good and good variety. E.g., the crumb buns cost a lot more than at Jersey Girl, but C&C had more varieties. Also, it's part of Bay Village so probably costs more because of all the foot traffic.
FYI, when I got home, I noticed that C&C charged a 3% surcharge for a DEBIT card. Adding a surcharge for a credit card has become common, but I believe DEBIT cards cost the business less than credit cards. It's not a big deal, but I'd like to see some customer push-back -- better signage please, and then let us decide on cash, credit, or debit.

The donuts were awesome, filled with creme! The crumb cake was also very good! Many choices. It was very busy but they had plenty of workers who were very helpful.

Everything here is really tasty (as always), from bagels to cookies to crumb cakes. My first time visiting, I was like a kid in a candy shop, I wanted a little of everything! Jen and Joey are always so kind and make great recommendations. It's a pleasure to walk into an establishment and be greeted with smiling faces. Definitely one of the best bakeries in South Jersey!

This bakery has been around for as long as I can remember. Every year my family would always go back and it was always amazing quality. The customer service is always perfect and everyone is always so friendly and welcoming. If you’re planning on visiting LBI Crust and Crumb is a must.

Best jelly donuts on the island! We have been coming to the bakery for years and have loved all the items we’ve had at the shop, but recently my husband found a blueberry glazed donuts (not a blueberry cake donut, but a plain donut with a special blueberry glaze). I called to ask if they’d have this specific donut and they said they should but they were a bit confused on what I was asking for. When I showed up they didn’t have it, but staff was great, super accommodating and helped us by adding some blueberry glaze onto a strawberry glazed donut and my husband said it was even better than the original! Thank you to all the staff they were great and I wish I grabbed their names to give them a special shout out!

First time despite frequent visitor to LBI. A genuine old fashioned bakery, a rarity these days. Fresh, delicious and what a variety! It will have your head spinning. Sticky buns and crumb cake were phenomenal. Many varieties of crumb cake also.
Wow! Was so impressed by the vegan selection here! Tons of nostalgic baked goods that are not often made vegan! And vegan sausage egg and cheese breakfast option!

Crust & Crumb is one of those classic LBI bakeries you’ll want to come back to every summer. The elephant ears are the standout for me—flaky, buttery, with a light cinnamon-sugar coating and just the right crunch on the outside while still soft in the center. They’re big enough to share (but you probably won’t want to).
They have a wide selection of baked goods, including danishes, crumb cake, cookies, donuts, and fresh breads. Everything I’ve tried has been fresh and flavorful. The bakery is popular, especially in the mornings, so expect a bit of a line during peak hours—but it moves quickly and is worth the wait.
The staff is friendly and efficient, and the place has that old-school Jersey Shore vibe. It’s located right in Beach Haven, near other shops and attractions, so it’s easy to stop by while you’re walking around. They’re cash-only, so just be prepared, but there’s an ATM nearby if you forget.
Whether you’re picking up breakfast or grabbing a treat for the beach, Crust & Crumb is a local favorite for good reason.

I ordered a cream doughnut which was dry and it tasted like gluten-free instead of a real doughnut! I also ordered a Boston cream. The cream was not rich and thick. I’ve been here many times before so I don’t know what happened. I hope it’s just a one and done! I know the cost of things have gone up, but for the price of two donuts is seven dollars. It was ridiculous, especially when I didn’t enjoy them.
