35 Best Bakeries near Brick

“Yet another reason why 502 Bakery is my bakery of choice. Woke-up Saturday morning (4/12/2025) craving crumb coffee cake. Arrived at 502 Bakery a few minutes before 9AM, but when I approached the door the sign said, "Sorry We're Closed!" I did not realize they opened at 9:30AM. So I went back to my vehicle to wait 30-minutes until they officially opened. LOL... Wait?! Yes, the crumb cake is that good! Not more than 2-minutes later, I looked back from my vehicle to see the neon 'OPEN' sign on! Rather than having a customer wait they chose to open early. 502 Bakery's customer service matches the quality of their product. Thanks 502 team! See you again soon. Gerald S.“

“This is the absolute best crumb cake I’ve ever had!“

“highly recommended!!!!!!!“

“Love this place my only place“

“Angy’s Homemade Cakes are delicious. Fresh, moist, flavorful and beautiful. Norma was very accommodating, responsive and professional. Highly recommend. 😋“

“I agree with the other review that you are wasting your time reading Cats Luck reviews when you could be eating there! The food was delicious! And not very expensive at all. I got the fried chick’n and scrambled tofu (loaded). Great flavor with plenty of food. Really hit the spot and seasoned perfectly. The service was incredible also! Great vibes with plenty of recommendations. Just great atmosphere overall. They were packed today so I ended up enjoying the food in my car, but nonetheless looking forward to sitting down and eating one day. I got desserts (chocolate peanut butter Bundt and apple cider donuts) for later also. Haven’t tried those yet but they look amazing too!! Updated from previous review on 2026-01-03“

“We received a box of goodies from Chocolate Carousel and they were delicious. Chocolate covered pretzels with M&Ms and peanut butter chips, cake pops and chocolate covered Oreos.😋“

“this place is the talk of the town. Nick’s croissant gave me déjà vu of when I went to Paris in April. A small but mighty, local business. Go when they open or you’ll miss the best bites. Easily five stars. It’s the best place in town.“

“I ordered a dozen bundtinis on line for my daughter’s birthday. They were ready when I arrived to pick them up and looked wonderful. They were so delicious. Everyone enjoyed them. They’re great to bring to someone’s home and perfect to serve at your own home. The shop is so cute. I will definitely be back!“

“Love this bakery! Everything is so fresh and delicious. Cakes are beautiful!“

“Their baked goods are out of this world! You must try their monkey bread!! It’s outstanding or their crumb cake.. to die for. Walter will get you everything you need Cheers“

“So many freshly-baked items, I had a hard time choosing. My students were thrilled that I went out of my way to shop here. While I bought 4 different items, I needed to get triple the amount of black and white cookies. I know now for next time. So many compliments and thank yous as students picked some of each item.“

“We just went for the first time today took a detour off our road trip to stop in. My kids were so excited that they could pick anything out we have a lot of allergies and it was so nice to see their faces light up and know that everything there was safe for them. The worker was so kind and sweet and it was overall an amazing experience. It’s a small front shop but so worth it to go in they had so many options to choose from we grabbed a little of everything we could. We will definitely be planning more detours the next time we drive near.“

“I have visited the Red Rose Bakery in Howell a number of times and loved everything I have tried. The apple turnovers were delicious, the selection of cupcakes was amazing, and it is wonderful to have the ability to buy just a portion of a cake when you don't have a large family. This morning I called with a last minute request for 20 cupcakes in 10 containers of two each for my dogs birthday! I wanted to bring them to his Saturday morning class with his doggie friends. I already had a cake for the dogs but had neglected their human partners. I was so pleased with the lovely selection and packaging on such short notice! Thank you Red Rose Bakery!“

“Wonderful place. Cozy and delicious. Like Europe.“

“Stopped by Papa Ganache in Manasquan and didn’t realize it was a vegan bakery until we got there. I ordered the cake roll, s’mores bar, and an Americano. Everything was delicious! The flavors were really good, and even though the texture isn’t quite like a non-vegan baked good, the taste totally made up for it.“

“I recently ordered macaroons for a business meeting. The service was excellent, the products were also excellent. I thought all varieties of the macaroons were delicious as did all attendees. I have celiac disease so the macaroons I purchased were gluten-free. I will purchase these products again, the Macaroon Shop is highly recommended. Keith Singer, Attorney At Law, Jackson NJ.“

“All their cookies and baked goods are delicious!!! We do not keep a Kosher home, but the cookies and baked goods are so so good and beautifully packaged! 😃“

“Mandoli’s nailed it! The cake they made me for my baby shower was beyond perfect I almost didn’t want to cut it! It looked exactly like my inspo pic I couldn’t have been happier. All my guests were raving about how pretty it was and how great it tasted, the raspberry buttercream was amazing. They also were nice enough to deliver my cake last minute. I highly recommend Mandoli’s and I will be using them in the future!“

“I recently hosted my baby shower in Belmar and came across this shop—so glad I did! Cali was incredibly helpful and made sure my vision came to life. Let me tell you, these were the BEST cupcakes I’ve ever had in my life! Everyone was raving about them, and they were absolutely beautiful too. If you’re planning a party, use this shop—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Sugar bakeshop provided the most beautiful baby shower cake for my daughters baby shower at Half moon point grill. Not only was it delicious, it was made with so much attention to the theme. Take a look at the photo, it’s absolutely gorgeous. Five stars, cake was fresh and moist and delicious. Great job, thank you. Update ; Sugar bake shop closed and new people took over the space. They did custom sugar cookies and baptism cake delivered to venue . The cookies were beautiful and cake delicious.“

“Just got my daughters sweet 16 cake today. They did a phenomenal job!! Very happy with how it turned out. And they accommodated me with this two tier cake with just a weeks notice. Thank you!!!! You guys are awesome! Anabela Rojas“

“Lakewood Shmura Matzoh Bakery is one of those places that, the second you walk in, you feel like you just stepped straight into Erev Pesach in the old country — only with better lighting and a lot more Lakewood energy. 😄
First of all, the smell. That warm, toasty, fresh-off-the-fire shmura matzah smell hits you and suddenly you’re like, “Okay… I’m ready to say Kol chamira right now.” The whole operation has that serious Yiras Shamayim vibe — you can tell this isn’t some “matzah factory,” it’s a matzah avodah. Everyone’s moving with purpose, like it’s a well-rehearsed seder of zerizus.
And if you come at the right time and get to see the process? Wow. You’re watching people working quickly, carefully, focused — and you’re thinking, “This is not a bakery, this is basically a live shiur in Hilchos Matzah.” The heat, the timing, the coordination… it’s like a whole chaburah in action, except instead of arguing on a Tosafos, they’re making sure every second counts.
The matzos themselves? Geshmak. Crisp, fresh, and clearly made with pride. You take one bite and you already know your Pesach is going to be on a higher level — like your seder table just got an automatic upgrade. And yes, it’s shmura — but it also tastes like it was made by people who actually care that it should be delicious, not just technically kosher.
Also, the location inside Excel Park is classic Lakewood: from the outside it looks like a regular industrial spot, and inside it’s literally kedushas Pesach headquarters. Hidden gem vibes. (If you know, you know.)
Bottom line: If you want real Lakewood shmura matzah, made with care, zerizus, and a healthy dose of that pre-Pesach excitement — this is the place. Just don’t blame me when you start feeling like you need to do bedikas chametz the second you leave.“

“Simona’s Bakery is amazing. She made a beautiful and delicious cake for my daughter’s 30th birthday. Along with the cake we enjoyed 4 dozen of her awesome mini cupcakes. Everyone loved it all. So much so that I didn’t even get a cupcake.lol. Heading to New Jersey in a few weeks and I have every intention of picking up my own order of cupcakes. Thanks Simona and staff for helping to make my daughter’s party a success.“

“Our wedding cake came from Cameo. It was amazing! It was everything I wanted on our wedding day, beautiful, light and incredibly delicious! I highly recommend Cameo for anyone who is looking for a bakery for their wedding cake.“

“I ordered a cake for my 75th birthday - chocolate cake, chocolate mousse filling and chocolate whipped cream (more like a mocha). It was the best cake ever and everyone raved about it. With all the chocolate you would think it would be very sweet but it wasn’t. Very light and not at all sweet. I have also gotten cookies from there several and they were delicious. I highly recommend Red Rise Bakery!!.“

“If you’re in Lakewood and you have even a drop of a sweet tooth, Gelbstein’s is basically a ניסיונות station. You walk in “just to look,” and two minutes later you’re leaving with a box, a bag, and a third thing you don’t remember agreeing to… because the smell of fresh pastry makes you sign away your free will. 😄
First of all, everything is fresh. Not “fresh-ish.” I mean fresh fresh — like the danishes are still warm and the crumbs are already following you home. The rugelach/danish vibe is top-tier, the pastries are flaky in a way that makes you whisper “וואו” without realizing, and the challah is the kind that turns a regular Shabbos table into a whole simcha.
And it’s not just the classics — they’ve got fun stuff too (those cute cupcakes and seasonal things), so it’s perfect when you need:
a quick treat for the car (aka: “for later”),
something respectable to bring to a vort/Sheva Brachos,
or a Shabbos dessert that looks like you put in effort (בלי עין הרע).
Also, the place has a very heimish, local feel — you’ll bump into half of Lakewood in there, all pretending they’re “only buying one thing.” Sure. We all believe you.
Bottom line: delicious, consistent, and dangerous in the best way.
Highly recommend — just don’t come in hungry unless you’re okay with your wallet doing teshuvah afterward. 😄“

“When I ordered a full sheet birthday cake (in person) the salesclerk was patient, professional and attentive to the details I requested. Great customer service! At pickup in Jan 2025, the large heavy cake was carried out to the car for me. It was beautifully decorated and exactly as expected. Again, great customer service! Best of all, at the party, many of our guests raved about the delicious cake. A fresh and moist chocolate cake filled with chocolate custard and iced with whipped cream. Excellent!“

“Absolutely the best store. If you're looking for a beautiful and delicious treat you must go here. The gift trays are beautifully wrapped and ready to go for any occasion. They have Cholov Yisroel and Parve chocolates and treats. Highly recommend to stop by and see their selection for yourself.“

“Their delicious Ice cream sundaes! 😋👍❤️“

“It's one of the best donuts I have ever had in this area. There is a lot of variety, a kind staff, and a great environment. I would definitely come back!“
