“I wanted to come on here and let you know that the Middletown location has an AMAZING General Manager, Tricia. I ordered a specific birthday Bundt cake online for my niece’s birthday who was coming to visit me and I requested to have it delivered since I was busy prepping her favorite dinner. To my surprise when the delivery arrived I received a Halloween decorated cake. I called the store which is when i spoke with Tricia. She handled my issue with such impeccable customer service and resolved it immediately. Tricia, you went above and beyond and for that alone you will forever have me as customer at your Middletown, NJ location. I appreciated everything you did for me!! Nothing Bundt Cakes I hope you recognize what an asset you have on your Team.“

“This is a little mall area that has a plethora of shops and businesses. Not the place to go if you are looking for something of everything, but there’s a ShopRite here that is pretty good. Not a bad place if you live in the area. It is accessible and parking is OK, even on crowded weekends.“

“My wife’s birthday was this past week. The only thing she asked for was a cake from Turquoise! And that’s what she got. The fluffiest, sweetest Red Velvet cake and Cream Cheese. Decorated to perfection! I’m trying to post a photo or two but the app won’t allow it. Oh well… take my word for it. Delicious.“

“I needed a cake for a celebration and walked into The Vintage Cake as a last resort. The young lady guided me through the expansive options and decorations. The cake was not only beautiful but also absolutely delicious. The icing was perfect, with just the right amount of “sweet,” and the cake was light, melting in your mouth. The tasteful gold leaf was just the elegance I wanted for the guest of honor. I highly recommend The Vintage Cake for your special occasions.“

“Thank you for making the most beautiful cake on short notice! Absolutely delicious! What could be better than cookie dough ice cream and cake? Awesome job 🧡“

“I really like this place! I had a coffee and it was good. Since it was my first time here, the bakery was crowded inside, which limited indoor seating, so I had to sit outside—but I didn’t mind. The service was a bit slow with a moderately long line, but the bakery was clean and the staff were friendly. I’ll definitely be returning and recommend giving this place a try!“

“If you’re looking for a sign to book this baker—this is it! Our wedding cake was a complete showstopper. Beautiful design and perfect flavor. The whole process was seamless, and they brought our vision to life better than we imagined. Truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!“

You cannot go wrong ordering them!“

“My wife is an excellent baker, who usually makes my birthday cake for me. This year she couldn't, so I bought a cake from Antoinette Boulangerie. I'm a bakery snob. When I'm not eating homemade desserts, I only buy from the best bakeries in NYC and NJ. Antoinette Boulangerie is one of them.

The cake I bought was not pre-ordered; it was a ready-to-go cake for the day I called, which was my birthday. There were three that day: Red Velvet, Chocolate, Lemon-Raspberry. I chose the Lemon-Raspberry: lemon icing, vanilla cake, raspberry filling. It was FANTASTIC. The cake itself was perfectly moist, light and flavorful; the lemon icing was delicious and just the right amount of sweet, not too sweet; the raspberry filling was delicate. These are the signs of an excellent baker. In the past I've also had pastries from Antoinette, usually tarts and eclairs, and they've always been excellent.

My wife thought the cake was so good that she's considering appointing Antoinette Boulangerie as my official birthday baker.“

“So happy you guys reopened, a staple of my childhood! Best bagels at the Jersey Shore hands down, and now they offer delicious homemade spreads! I got the mini with Veggie cream cheese and that will be in my weekend rotation from now on. Also the entire place is sparkling clean. I can't believe its the same place. Bravo!!

Vegetarian options: Limitless veggie options!“

“If you are looking for a custom cake that looks amazing and tastes delicious, I highly recommend Cups & Cakes in Rumson. Denise and her team created a wonderful cake for our daughter with her college logo/High School grad. Everybody loved it! They go above and beyond to make your vision a reality! Thanks, Denise!“

“Yummy!! Love the speciality donuts!!“

“Amazing food, friendly staff, delicious coffee🖤“

“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“

“My kids love to stop in every time we come to the beach. Nothing better than a good cookie or cake after a long day of play. The lobster tails are delicious and light to the crunch!! Highly recommend🙌🏽“

“My home away from home! Or is my home my home away from home? Either way, come visit me sometime! <3“

“Awesome bread. The bread room is open to the public and they also do wholesale. Rustic Italian sesame seed loaf as a baguette style is amazing. Buy 3 if you want 1 to make it home!“

“I visited yesterday morning before work and had a great experience. This location has a team that stands out from other locations. It fits in wonderfully with Red Bank’s culture even though it’s a recognized franchise brand and the coffee is delicious. The chocolate and strawberry croissants are very fresh. I love the modern aesthetic and layout mixed with the friendly atmosphere. I felt like I was in an high end “Mom and Pop shop”. It was also cleaner than most of the local coffee shops. Definitely suggest coming here if you want some reliably quick and tasty food/coffee in a busy Red Bank“

“Beautiful job on my daughter cake for her beach theme bridal shower thank you“

“I went yesterday to get mango italian ice and it was 10/10 sooo good and it was such a good
price. The girl behind the counter was so kind and patient and I think the guy was the owner or just worked there but he was SOOO kind, it was definitely a great experience and i’ll definitely come back :)“

“I have had these Bundt cakes for many occasions and they are always delicious. The staff at the store is always pleasant and polite. The store is so cute and always clean and organized. Thank you making our events so special 😍“

“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!“

“What a choice of bagels and cream cheese! I worked with Maria for a special event for the PR Council of Greater AC. She was more than helpful and the bagels were fresh and delicious! We will be back every time! Thank you!“

“Belli Baci Bakery makes some truly delicious treats. The food was excellent—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with real care. The service was just as impressive, with friendly staff who made the visit feel easy and welcoming. The atmosphere was a bit simple, but still comfortable enough to enjoy everything. Overall, a great spot for quality baked goods and kind service.“
