Here in Lakewood Township, you will find this bakery in the Goldmont Center…read more Brand: 5/5 Hershy's Bakery is located in the Goldmont Center in Lakewood Township as a corner store. I do like the logo, for it uses as much of its simplicity as possible while maintaining a fancy posture. The sign has a noticeable presence in this shopping center as you walk around. Concerning the interior, I will say that the food itself adds to the brand. Website: 2/5 While the website does look decent, it is incomplete, therefore I cannot give it a favorable score. I do see the potential in terms of functionality and aesthetics, but the entire website contains sample text. It does have the vital information, such as contact information. It does say that it serves babka, peanut chew, cakes, and pastries, but it does not provide you with images of these products. Wait Time: 5/5 I did not have to wait for long to purchase my order. Ambiance: 3/5 On the outside, I could see this large corner store in the Goldmont Center that I could clearly imagine catering to many customers. Once I stepped inside, the ambiance felt quite underwhelming. I did not expect to find a small bakery with some of the goods still stacked in some of the noticeable racks, and no tables. Another problem was the lack of labels in the glass counters. It does maintain its cleanliness though. Food: 5/5 I tried four cinnamon rugelachs, and I will say that it was my satisfactory introduction to rugelachs. It had a more cinnamon taste and less bread taste, which helps balances these pastries. The establishment served baskets of rugelach in the open, and I will say that even then, they did not become hard or stale. They retained their fluffy forms and their cinnamon tastes. The website provides some of the menu items, while the Yelp menu has all the options available to you, such as challah bread, danishes, cookies, cakes, and donuts. Service: 5/5 The owner did not have an issue with informing you if you looking for a particular pastry. Worth The Money?: 3/5 The food reflects the brand in all its simplicity, for you will find many Jewish delicacies in this establishment. While it would help Hershy's Bakery's website to show specific images of the food, if I am to believe the awards cataloged in the About Us page, then it would help develop its credibility if ownership updated the entire website. Indeed, the font and the images already on the website already add to its ambiance. I will say that the food does add to the ambiance of the bakery. I would recommend adding labels to the foods. The ambiance made both the wait time and service tolerable. Would I say that Hershy's Bakery is worth it as a small business? Yes. As a place to frequent despite not being from Lakewood Township? Probably not. I can only consider this establishment a choice if I was traveling through Lakewood and happened upon the Goldmont Center. I will say that the owner did balance my order on a weight scale, giving it a fair price. So, I cannot complain. Rating: 4/5 Stars Needless to say, I will say that Hershy's Bakery is quite a good establishment overall. I got to introduce myself to rugelachs despite the limitations. Recommend To... Any other Gentiles who want to try kosher delicacies but do not know where to start, or are hesitate to bake them yourselves. I will tell you that Hershy's Bakery offers you a glimpse into Jewish cuisine with a fresh basket of rugelachs.

Had an order delivered from here. Cinnamon flaky danish were anything but. Totally stale so hard…read moreyou couldnt rip a piece off much less cut it also had a very odd taste. Rugalah was also stale and tasted off as well perhaps frozen at one time. Something g else we ordered didn't show up but was refunded and the black and white cookies were nicely wrapped but no one ate them as they were huge and way too much for one person also no description of that. Total disappoint and waste of money

She's hard working, and so sweet to offer us a key lime pie. Also, the crumbcake cheesecake (we discovered the delicious dessert at Atlantic Offshore FishRey & Restaurant over on Channel Dr., PP, NJ) and had to source the baker. A combination of cheesecake and crumb cake makes a truly tasty treat. So yummy. Thank you for rectifying the issue. It was nice to meet Olivia, store clerk, too. We'll be back to try the chicken pot pie in the Fall; read it's really good!

At first glance I was excited about this store and some of the items I was able to find…read more However...they over charged me by making a mistake at the deli counter. I did not notice until after I left the store. When calling the store I was met with the worst customer service I've ever encountered. I was put on hold and disconnected. I had to explain the story several times and transfered to several people. I was on hold over 20 minutes . No one would give their name. One woman when asked "Who am I speaking too?" Would only say "Customer service ". She eventually transferred me to a manager who was so rude I don't think I can even explain it clearly enough in this . First he tried to say "HOW DO YOU KNOW THE PRICE WAS WRONG?!" in a very agressive tone. He then put me back on hold to check the price then came back and blamed me for ringing it wrong myself because we went to self check out. When I explained I could not have rang in it twice as he claimed because there were 3 items in one deli container...I swiped it once and all 3 rang up individually with that swip...If I would have double swipped they all would have shown being rang in twice but that's not what happened. The item I was double charged for (which there were 2 of) rang up two times but at twice the price they should have been. For some reason he just wanted to blame me for the mistake. So I got annoyed by this and asked "Why is it so important to you to blame me.? Why can't you just except your employee tagged it wrong and refund me my money? " He insisted because it was my fault and I should be more careful! He did refund the money (after I said I would contact my credit card company) but insisted on continuing to say it was my fault. I asked his name and his response was " I'm not going to tell you!" .i don't care if they had the only food available in the stae...I WILL NEVER SHOP THERE AGAIN! He is rude and a discusting excuse as a human being. This was the Gourmet Glatt 1700 Madison Ave, Lakewood, NJ (732)961-1700

So yesterday, July 31st I was going to bring my mom lunch and she has been asking for cupcakes. I…read moreremember finding this place because it's in the same plaza as my chiropractor's office. The cupcakes look amazing and they're not bad. I just bought three for three dollars each, they're a little on the small side, but I guess that's where we are now. They offer different size options for different prices, but not in individual varieties. The churro Locos was definitely fresher than the other two and by far the best of the three. Taste in texture, amazing. the Red Velvet was OK and so was the carrot cake cupcake. I would definitely go back and try different ones but I wasn't as blown away as I thought I was going to be because they look incredible! I might be a little more picky than the average person so make your own judgment.

I kid you not, this place has 40 flavors of cupcakes including gluten free options and it was so much fun to choose my selection. I wish I could have gotten one of each because they all looked fantastic. I ended up going home with the Holy Cannoli, Churros Locos, Birthday Cake, and Dunakroos flavors. I was greeted by Madison who has such a happy and friendly personality and shared with me the dog friendly rules. We are so happy they allow leashed and friendly dogs inside to order with you, dine inside the beautifully designed and decorated space, and join you at the outdoor tables in front of the building. There is also a wonderful selection of freshly baked dog treats including pup cakes, biscuits, grr-nolis (cannolis)! And, if that wasn't enough they have prepackaged dog treats, cupcake mix for dogs, and dog toys! Indulge in a cupcake as a special treat, order a catering platter for your party, and raise money for your organization through their fundraising program. In addition to Brick, there are 3 other locations in NJ in Clifton, Hawthorne, and Paramus.

This was my second time visiting Taylor Sam's . My first visit was for breakfast, and this time I…read morestopped in for lunch. I'll start with the burger. I ordered the Mom Burger, which is a Swiss burger topped with mushrooms on a brioche bun. It also came with a good portion of fries and a side of pickles. The burger itself was pretty solid -- good flavor and a satisfying size. At $16, the portion felt fair considering the amount of fries you get with it. One thing I noticed was an additional charge for sauces. I asked about it, and they explained that all their sauces are made in-house, which is why they charge $1 per sauce. Honestly, that makes sense when they're homemade. Now the star of the show for me was actually the drink. After looking over the menu a bit more, I decided to try the LA Metro coffee drink with almond milk. I'm not a big coffee drinker, but for $5.99, I have to say it was really good. Definitely something I'd order again. I also want to mention the customer service. The girl working at the counter was extremely nice -- probably some of the best customer service I've had in a while. She didn't rush anything, answered my questions, and was very professional and friendly. I asked about the specials, the cakes they offer, and even whether they were doing a St. Patrick's Day platter, which they are. Overall, it was a really good experience. Good food, great drink, and excellent customer service. I'd definitely recommend stopping by Taylor Sam's if you're in the area.
