“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.“

“Th food here is soo good. It’s my favorite croissant place at the Shore. There are tons of delicious baked goods that it is hard to choose from. Their coffee is also excellent. My favorite though is their regular croissant and their ham and cheese croissant.“

“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!“

“Kosher bakery with everything you can think of. They offer cakes, cookies, bread, challah, pastries etc... and even sell pizza and sushi. This bakery is the go to bakery in this town and is extremely popular. The pi,za and sushi can have very long waits in the summer especially during peak hours.

Dietary restrictions: Fully kosher yashan pat n chalav yisrael

Parking: Easy to find parking on street on regular days. During peak season parking can be rough.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly“

“Such a cute place. Counter guy very friendly. Great smoothies..will definitely be my to go place for coffee“

“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!“

“My best friend called and ordered a last minute gender reveal cake. They were able to follow through and make something same day!!! The cake was sooo delicious! Workers are so friendly. I’ll use this bakery for other events in the future!!“

Vegetarian options: The Sunshine Roll is delicious. Their salads are great, too.

Dietary restrictions: I'm vegan and had a lot to eat!“

“Amazing breads. Great staff and big supporters of the community.“

“The most delicious eggplant parmigiana sandwich I have had in almost forever!!! Just the perfect balance of everything! And the BREAD! Beyond fabulous. I drove 36 miles to try this bread and I’m soooo glad I did. I will be back a lot!! My photo does not do this deliciousness any justice , just trust me!!!“

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

“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.“

“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“

“hands down my favorite coffee shop. The two girls behind the counter are so friendly and seem to know every customers order by heart. The coffee is always delicious and the service is always quick; everything served with a smile! i’d give more than five stars to this store and their staff!“

“Everything tastes so good. They are easy to order from. I would go more if I could“

“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“

“A suggestion. Middletown had to be closed due to it not being financially viable. As a daily coffee drinker and supporter of local business, I can tell you the sole reason why people choose Rook, Starbucks etc. over Booskerdoo. Your prices. A 24 oz flavored
iced latte with alternative milk is $8 and that's without tipping. That is insanity. The average person can't afford that.The largest starbucks drink with alternative milk is $7 (still pricey) and the largest Rook drink (cold brew,alternative milk) is between $5 and $6. That leaves room for tip and a reason to return frequently.“
