“Obviously the cookies are good but I’m sharing this for the great workers!
Tonight I ordered a 4 pack to get delivered and within in the 2 minutes it took for me to get outside, raccoons stole 3/4
cookies. I ordered another one, telling them they got stolen bc i thought it was funny, and asked them to text me before arrival so it wouldn’t happen again lol.
This is what i saw when I opened the box!

So funny and I appreciate the hospitality involved.

Thanks Kennedy!!“

“Stopped in here well walking around the bell works building. Nice little coffee shop I ordered a Americano and apeanut butter and jelly bar everything is real good. Peanut butter and jelly bar had real peanut butter and jelly with a coffee cake type layer on top. The service was good I was in and out quickly“

“I can’t stop dreaming about this place! Every time I go I try something new and exciting which brings me right on back. My favorites thus far are the menemen and turkish coffee for meals / snacks, and just about every single dessert… especially the Turkish custard!! I also must say that the staff are superb. They treat every person like family. From the first time we went, they scooped up my son and pampered him with cookies. Now every time we go, they remember him and greet him with a warm smile. I am thrilled that Hamide has opened up close by and am looking forward to many many years of enjoying both their food and company.“

“Don’t let any of the haters who gave this place a low review score fool you, the place is the BEST! Great coffee, amazing variety and I’ve tried almost everything on the menu and it is all DELICIOUS! Instead of wasting your money on nasty DD, come in and try this amazing café!!!“

“I've been here twice in person and I just ordered uber with them. I don't usually leave a lot of reviews unless I'm moved one way or the other.
I just want to note their cust care! I had ordered a chocolate strawberry shortcake, 1 croissant, and I chocolate puff. The sweetest young lady called me when the uber driver arrived to tell me there are no more chocolate strawberry cake left. I had my heart set on one ?. I said ok to the ref strawberry shortcake and noted how I was looking fwd but it was ok.
I just opened my order to find 6 chocolate puffs ?
So sweet for you to add the extra puffs!“

“I’ve seen a few comments here about cost, and while I don’t even think this place is expensive compared to other similar bakeries, you also get what you pay for. Great service and some of the best desserts in central NJ.

We brought a big assortment to Thanksgiving and it was a huge hit. Some highlights include:
-Chocolate Mouse: small simple thing but 5yo niece loved it and was so excited to have her little mouse
-Nutella Croissant: what more could you want? A perfect buttery crispy croissant with a generous amount of Nutella inside the unique shape that keeps it from sog
-Peanut Butter Bombe: tasted like PB, Nutella, with soft chocolate on it and a chocolate cookie bottom, I could eat 10 of these even though they’re quite big
-Napoleon Marble Cake w Raspberry: imo it’s the best thing they have but I love these to begin with, I always order these and this is the best I’ve ever had
-Misc: also had chocolate & vanilla eclairs, Lindser torts, mixed fruit mini pie, almond chocolate croissant - everything ordered was at minimum above average.“

“Absolutely delicious 2 tier cake for my son's engagement party. Sophia decorated it beautifully !! with the fresh roses I brought in the day before. Vanilla cake French cream with fresh strawberries and blueberries +whipped cream icing sooo yummy. I will always get my cakes from la dolce in old bridge. Highly recommend“

“De Marco's is the best. We are a large family with some great cooks but many times we like to relax and order De Marco's catering as we did this Easter. This Easter we ordered the package that included Penne Vodka, Stuffed Shells, Chicken Francaise, Stuffed Mushrooms, Rolled Eggplant and (3) loaves of the best bread on earth. The food was absolutely delicious It feed not only the (18) people advertised but all of the food my children brought home. MY wife and I have been buying from De Marco's from day one, yes 1975. We got to know the owners we know the staff such a pleasure to visit there.John Lupi Sr.P.S. We could not fit the delicious Stuffed Mushrooms in the picture they were so good.“

“Unfortunately they have been on the down slide cannoli cream was sour and Napoleon pastry were stale. Surprise how bad they got“

“Best bagels. It's a small cozy place. It looks shabby but don't let that fool you. It makes the best bagels in the entire area. They are made to perfection, crispy on the outside and soft on inside. I think they must have a OG recipe for bagels lol. Must try.“

“This review is LONG overdue, but this past October, Sophie had a cake prepared for my boyfriend’s 25th birthday. It was coming up really soon and I still hadn’t gotten a cake. I came across Sophie C’s Sweets on Facebook and saw how talented she was. I messaged her on a Monday, asking if she’d be able to bake me a cake by the following Saturday, and to my surprise, she was able! The ordering process was super smooth and the pricing was very reasonable. When I picked up the cake, she had it beautifully presented, and it looked BETTER than the reference I had sent. Let me tell you, when we finally had a bite, this was the BEST cake I’ve had in my entire life. I’m not exaggerating. If you’re looking for someone to make your custom cake, don’t think twice, get it from Sophie C’s Sweets!“

“There's a new guy in charge! The guy with the glasses and does the cooking, he is legit and doesn't forget anything. He's very cool.

These bad reviews were from a year ago when they had different workers and yes, they were horrible.

But these new workers are awesome!“

“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!“

“The food is great and low price 😍“

“I've been coming here for years. I buy all the cheese danishes and cinnamon danishes available. They also have other Jewish bakery delicacies. I was presently surprised to see that they had mini challah loaves, as a larger one would be too much for me and my Dad. The staff is always pleasant. It's the go-to Jewish bakery.

“I ordered food for my sons’s 10th birthday party and everything was great, fresh and delicious! 4ft hero, Italian and chicken cutlet, prosciutto balls and chicken tenders. I will definitely order from them again.“

“I got my tires changed there & it was taken care of nice and professionally. The mechanic name there is Rick & he was pleasant. Unfortunately he’s the only person working there due to shortage of staff and handles all the negativity from others due to lack of help. They need to give him a raise & some help! Cause he is doing amazing! 10/10“
