“Best fruit cake I ever had“

“Very clean restaurant, Food Delicious, Waitress Lee courteous, polite, so nice a pleasure to talk to. Will definetely go back.“

“Great cupcakes there. There’s a reason why they won or Food Network cupcake competition. I always make a stop here whenever I visit Princeton.“

“Had a last minute order of over 40+ cupcakes and the team did an amazing job making sure I got what I needed. The cake was SO moist. Would recommend. Ty, ladies!!“

“If you’re looking for someone to make your kid’s birthday extra special, look no further than Gimme S’more! 💕 I used them for my son’s 5th birthday and I was blown away. The owner was such a great communicator and seriously went above and beyond. She even ordered the monster trucks herself to make my son's cake vision come to life! and let me tell you, a monster truck crashing into the cake is about as cool as it gets for a 5-year-old boy. 🛞💥🎂 My son was obsessed! And the Funfetti cupcakes? Oh. My. Gosh. SO moist, so yummy, and they disappeared faster than I could grab one for myself 😂. To top it off, she delivered everything right to the party which made life 100x easier. Highly recommend!! Gimme S’more CRUSHED 🏁 it! 🧁✨“

“Loved this cute little place!!! My daughter and I were out and about, and wanted to get some coffee, but not from the regular “chain” coffee shop, so after a quick search, we headed to Metuchen. We were lucky enough to get parking right outside, and walked in to be pleasantly surprised by the esthetic vibe. Everything was super clean, and we were greeted right away by the super friendly employee. My daughter ordered a cappuccino and I got iced coffee. We also got a cheese and pesto savory pastry and a passion fruit and coconut tres leches dessert. Everything was delicious!!!!! Thanks for the enjoyable experience. We will definitely return.“

“Best cafe in the area! Delicious baked good and the breakfast board is excellent! I want to eat everything when I go! Only open on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) so plan your visit!“

“From price quote, to cake pickup, to eating I had a phenomenal experience. I splurged for my 30th birthday for a custom cake. La Bon was affordable for what I wanted which was amazing. Their staff was incredibly sweet, professional, and all around pleasant. And the cake? Oh my God. I couldn't ask for a better outcome. I provided a reference photo and the result was an exact match. Flavor wise? Impeccable. I don't know what it is about these cakes but it was hands down the best cake I've ever had in my life. It was decadent but not too sweet (especially with black frosting, I was pleasantly surprised), perfectly piped frosting, and perfectly light and flavorful strawberries and cream filling. I will 100% be trusting all my future cakes to la bon from now on!“

“These cakes are AMAZING! My daughter’s school had a fundraiser and our order just came it tonight, first time trying Nothing Bundt Cakes and I wish I would of tried them a long time ago. Cake was so moist and just delicious! No sweet, just perfect. The cream cheese frosting is to die for! Can’t wait to order for my daughter’s birthday next month!“

“Brenda and Karen made my visit to Paris Baguette such a great experience! They were both so friendly, welcoming, and attentive. During my visit, I also witnessed a difficult interaction with a man, and they remained respectful and professional throughout the situation. I really appreciated how calmly they handled it while continuing to provide great service. Their patience and kindness stood out, Thank you, Brenda and Karen, for making customers feel welcome. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great bagels, amazing staff, and fresh cupcakes!
Monroe Bagel & Pastry is such a great local spot! The bagels are absolutely amazing—fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and provides excellent service, which makes the experience even better.

They also make fresh cupcakes that are delicious and beautifully made. You can really tell that everything is prepared with care. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to. Highly recommend! 🥯🧁“

“Really loved this place. The food was so delicious, flavorful, and homemade tasting. And the people working there were just as amazing super warm, friendly, and welcoming. You can tell they really care about their guests. Will definitely be coming back 🇬🇪“

“I had an amazing experience @The Market On Main .Now, under new ownership by a dear friend! The updated menu is a real treat, blending classic Greek flavors with exciting new twists. I tried the platter / Pita chips & Dips, plump chef and the veggie Reggie it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The new desserts are a must-try. The vibe is warm and welcoming, perfect for a casual dinner . Service was friendly and attentive, and you can feel the love in everything they do. So proud of what they've built! Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area. 💙#SupportLocal #GreekCuisine #ProudFriend“

“We love the atmosphere, the delicious homemade soups, main dishes, and desserts at the lovely Friends Friend's Cafe :) the jazz evenings outdoors, the chess-playing and studying students & Mo, Josephine, and Hannah with the heart of gold for all furry friends who are welcome inside the cafe, and, of course, on the patio <3 <3 <3 Below is our Rover enjoying his doggie meal and a comfy bed at the cafe :)“

“Our counter person was not very pleasant, but it was after 6pm (so we gave him a pass for most likely being tired)

However, the cake was absolutely phenomenal! It was for my wife's birthday and she said it was the most delicious Strawberry Shortcake she ever eaten!
Our guests also sang praises about the cake and inquired where it was purchased!
Yummy, Yum, Yum, Yum!“

“I just had the best cake for my son’s 50th. Not only did it look great but it was delicious! I will be back for every event! Their pastries were amazing as well and the girl behind the counter couldn’t have been more helpful. She even brought the cake to my car!!“

“Excellent bakery. Strawberry shortake is my favorite. On some weekends they have focaccia. Heat it up and it is really good. I like their icings, especially on the orange cream cupcake.“

“I've tried a couple of mochi donuts here and they are all amazing! Not too sweet and the flavors all hit the mark. I've recently stopped by and noticed they had Christmas themed donuts, which is think is so cute, they would be great to bring to a party or to gift to someone.“

“We just had Tuscany Old Bridge BBQ cater our wedding this past weekend. They surpassed every expectation! Anne treated us as if she has known us for years! She took such good care of us. Our griller, Mike and his wife Pat who was our server, were absolutely the best! Our 60 family and friends are still raving about the food! It made our wedding such a memorable occasion! I highly, highly recommend them. We will be repeat customers!“

“This place is beautiful. Most of the sandwiches contain ham, so there isn’t much variety for vegetarians or people looking for halal food.
Today, I used the restroom. It was very clean; however, there was no soap to wash my hands. The soap dispensers were empty and filled with water.
Today I went to the same place and used the restroom, the soap dispenser empty since yesterday 😡 I’m wondering how the staff serve us without washing their hands 😢“

“I ordered a maple cold brew with pistachio cold foam from their winter menu and a few donuts. It was all delicious!“

“Awesome food! Amazing family!“

“Delicious Latin food in town.“

“The best food and the greatest staff ever!! We love having Bruzzese’s in Manalapan 💗“

“Had a Fantastic experience with customer service, as i was looking for some suggestions on a fairly large order for a kids class presentation. The owner and her staff member, who was on a break, kept giving great suggestions as to how to best package the items i was thinking about. The cookies and pastries were very tasty, a total hit with the school! --- Will be coming back for more for sure.“

“My favorite bakery. Love egg tarts, love Boba, love the unique breads from the tuna roll to the raisin twist that tastes like a Trinidadian currants roll but with the addition of coconut.

Just a very satisfying bakery to eat and relax in.“

“They are the best ever!! I received them from my daughter for my birthday and requested them again for my next birthday!! I don’t ever eat icing but, this icing is amazing! Yes, I ate it!!!!!“

“Along with sweet savory deserts, the owners and staff were so pleasant!!“

“Chowpatty recently catered my wedding and their food and service was phenomenal! Not only did they create mouthwatering dishes, but they took into consideration of the type of food we were looking to serve our guests. They provided constructive feedback and went above and beyond to give us tasteful ideas that we hadn’t even thought of. The team expressed enthusiasm to give us the best experience we could ask for during one of the most important weekends of our lives. Chowpatty never treated our wedding as a job, but an event they were proud to serve. They continue to strive for the best and push beyond their limits to give everyone a truly, unforgettable experience. Thank you Chowpatty for giving our families and friends a weekend they are still reminiscing about! Purvi & Shiven“

“Muy buena comida Los invito“

“great customer service! Just roll up before the gates and run inside with your paperwork. Even if the order is not already picked, they will tell you to back up to door number one, or two, and then they'll pick the order quickly! Very little waiting here! A pleasure!“

“Bagels are so delicious and fresh! We’re taking 2 dozen home to Virginia!“

“The cake was extraordinary the taste was amazing it felt so good and so happy it turned out great! I will recommend to everyone and all guests loved it. The service was great I called multiple times for questions designs and preference and they were very polite and detailed.“

“Delicious Mexican pastries! Everything was freshly made. I enjoyed a breakfast taco (egg, ham & quesillo) on a homemade corn tortilla.. OMG.. it doesn't get any better. There's very little space to dine in so best bet is take out.“

“Best cakes, breads, donuts and pastries Very helpful and pleasant.“

“Best bread in the area I love the challah breads and cheese danish the freshest I’ve ever tasted. Will be back again and again because this place really is a gem. There aren’t anymore bakery’s in New Jersey so I’m happy they are open?“

“Penstock is great. Their tea is awesome and it always hits the spot. Also, the staff is very helpful and down to Earth.“

“So yum! Great recommendation from my sis in law.“

“Pita bread there goes out fast (because it’s fresh and very good). In my basket now : fig jam (Lebanon), halva (Egypt), fig cookies (Syria), tea biscuits (Turkey), goat cheese (Syria and Egypt), feta chese (Bulgaria), olives on open (Greece) and not to forget my tiny packets of Giglets chewing gum (Lebanon). (I go there since 1988 and no, I am not a mid-easterner).
I was there today too, a dozen of buckets with all kind of olives : black, raw, pickled, pitted, small, big, stuffed etc.
I feel like buying the whole store especially when i am hungry !!!“

“Best fruit cake I ever had“
