Thank you, for making such an important part of my special day so unforgettable.

Chef Burke helped elevate Dixie Lee and we all get the benefits. Each and every offering is top notch! The use the best ingredients and make everything from scratch. The must haves for me are the jelly donuts and the black and white cookies. The buns rolls and breads cannot be matched. The cookies and cakes are phenomenal. This is a walk up counter place only no tables to snack at but it is always bright clean and welcoming. Long live Dixie Lee!!! Get in there and grab some goodies!

Was in Keansburg today and wanted rolls for our lunch. So I stopped in to the Dixie Lee bakery…read more Always remembered their great products from my time in the burg. I ordered two hard rolls . They looked great. Got home and just now was going to make lunch with them. I have to say so disappointed. I asked for two "hard" rolls and boy did I get them. They were more like day old hard rolls . Instead of being crispy they were rotted it seemed. Completely fell apart, crumbled at touch . No crunch or crispiness and my fingers pushed thru the outside surfaces like going into cardboard. Crumbled and felt so stale under these circumstances had to be at the minimum day old left out dried up rolls. I had heard they went down a bit down the "old" Dixie Lee, but this was embarrassing. Sorry David Burke, I expected so much more from you... I learned my lesson today.. off to J&M where I should have gone to begin with. And it's a shame. 3 yrs ago I was a fan. Not any more...

Tatiana was extremely welcoming and scooped out generous portions of their homemade ice cream. We met Jordan who makes the ice cream and he could not have been any nicer.

I would try another place next time.

Ryan's Homemade ice cream is very good! The ice cream is rich and creamy. I haven't tried a lot…read moreof flavors yet, but the best flavor I tried so far was cookies & cream. It was one of the best cookies & cream flavors I've had! It was packed with crushed Oreos! Their fudge based ice cream flavors are also very good. I prefer their fudge brownie over their fudge m&m flavor. The Somoa flavor is also very good. One flavor I don't recommend is Reese's Blast. There was barely any peanut butter or mix ins in it. The portions are generous and they are generous with toppings. The only disappointing part about this location is I wish they had a larger selection of flavors. I think they would be very busy if they had more flavors to choose from. The staff is very nice, and they let you sample. I recommend Ryan's Homemade Ice Cream in Hazlet!

I am obsessed with crumbl! I even have their app and I'm part of their rewards system (I'm already…read moreup to enough points to redeem a box of 4 free cookies). Crumbl has one of the best cookies I've ever had, and they are constantly inventing new flavors! I do stay true to the chocolate chip cookie which is phenomenal and always get that one even when I'm trying other flavors because it's so fireee, but everything is truly great! I order their party boxes for all my special occasions and it's always a hit with my party guests. For Thanksgiving I ordered their thanksgiving pies and the key lime and pumpkin pie were incredible( featured in the video). Every week they change up the menu and you can try different cookies . Also you can pre-order cookies up to a week in advance. It's no wonder the lines to get into a Crumbl in NYC are so crazy long, they're truly the best. Don't sleep on them, they got the best flavors and taste amazing! There are no long lines at this location, so take advantage!

I don't really understand the crumbl hype. The cookies are good but in my opinion not worth the…read moreprice or the calories. In their effort to impress, they do too much extra. For example the dirt cookie was good but had wayyy too much frosting on it. Same with the chocolate chip cookie-good but so many chips. That being said, the people are always friendly and the service is fast. I also hate that the space is so small. You have to order via kiosk even tho the people are right there and there are no tables or anything to actually sit and eat the cookies. It's a no for me.

My love for Korean bakeries runs deep. When I heard a new Paris Baguette was opening up in this…read moreHolmdel complex, I paid a visit on their grand opening day. Things were wild yet well managed on the grand opening day, and nearly entirely half of the space is dedicated to seating - either at tables or high window tops with stools - so that your chances of finding a place to park and chill with a few pastries remains relatively high. For the lovers of sweets out there, there's a lot to explore. Mochi donuts, inventive cereal-based treats, and all kinds of croissants with all kinds of flavors. But for me, the real hidden gems are seemingly plain and savory offerings. Any of the milk bread loaves are unimaginably soft and elevate any sandwich or French toast I might make that week. I'm also an enormous fan of their sandwiches and pizza-like breads (which - hot tip - can be warmed for you upon purchase). On another note, I've noticed - and chuckled at - the complaints about the self-service aspect about this establishment from other reviewers. I imagine that's what happens when a Korean bakery is planted in an area that doesn't have many others. In some parts, where there are spots with Asian bakeries on every other block, it's seems a common thing to have customers picking up their own pastries with tongs. But I'll offer this as a broad panacea to any paranoia about cleanliness - during my visit, I loved seeing how frequently the workers came by with fresh pastries, which for me was assurance that - (1) everything is freshly baked, and (2) there are eyes on the pastries (and presumably any one potentially mishandling the goodies). The complex is enormous, so parking wasn't an issue even with the throngs of crowds coming by to check out the shiny new store installment.

This was my first time in Paris Baguette and I can't wait to go back! Once you walk in, there is a…read moregrab & go section and a seating area. The grab & go section has many different options whether you are craving a sweet treat or savory snack/meal. There are also gluten free and vegan options! I purchased the Caprese Baguette from the grab & go. It comes cold, however, they can heat it up for you. It was absolutely delicious and so flavorful. There was the perfect amount of each ingredient and nothing was overpowering. I also ordered the Iced Peppermint Mocha. I ordered a small and I was gladly surprised by the size of the cup, especially for the price. It was so flavorful and the candy cane sprinkles were such a nice touch. The staff were also extremely friendly. I can't wait to go back!
