Long overdue review. I was in the area for a business meeting and thanks to a quick search on Yelp, found these amazing donuts and a great owner! He very quickly hooked me up with a dozen donuts and I was off to my meeting. The donuts??? The talk of the meeting! AMAZING! I will be back for sure 5**** read more

Was there this morning. My son had 2 sweet donuts he loved and I had an amazing just out of oven apple fritter, wish I bought 2. Highly recommend read more

This place is in a Cute little garden center. The staff is lovely and so nice. The place and donuts smell delicious right when you walk in and also through the box when you take them home. I got a dozen of their donuts all the fancy flavors and they were delicious my personal favorite was the strawberry shortcake it was refreshing and so incredibly fresh tasting. I knocked this place down a star only because the donuts are small and cost almost $4 which blew my mind and not in a good way. Would definitely come back to this place for a donut but would not be buying a box of the fancy flavors due to the price. Highly recommend. read more

We purchased 4 donuts - Boston Cream Donut, Samoa Donut, Apple Cider Donut, & a Hostess Style Cupcake donut. My husband's favorite was the Boston Cream. I preferred the Hostess style ! Overall a bit sweet, but I do love a good cake donut. read more

I love living so close to D'Ercole's! It's a natural, relaxing place to visit, pick up a few plants, sit down at a picnic table and have a delicious burger & fries and of course, pick up a box of freshly baked donuts! Although I'm partial to the ice cream donuts! Just a gem. read more

It was our first time trying D'cole and it was awesome! Joe, the owner was lovely and passionate about making the donuts! We're excited to dive right in and taste them all. ( apple cider, apple crumb, caramel apple and Boston cream) read more

I discovered this hidden gem from the owner of Dean's Coffee in Pearl River. I took a trip and discovered that this donut shop located in a rustic barn next to an interesting floral shop has just about any flavor donut you can name and all are decorated to perfection. read more

Somebody brought these in to work one day and DAMN these donuts are slammin! Lots of flavors to choose from and they're all good! They're rich and delicious and you can tell they aren't just sitting in the case all day like some other donut spots. They're also a good size, so I don't feel bad about having more than one lol read more

This was a small spot next to a gardening store. There were a number of different options to choose from regarding flavors. The donuts as a whole were small and a tad more expensive than I would have thought, but not a big deal. The six donuts I had (Around $13) with my thoughts on each are below. Cookies N' Cream - This was a standard cookies and cream donut. It had plenty of cookie crumbles and cream present too. It was very good. Churro Cheesecake - I was most interested in trying this one, but it disappointed. The presence of the cream cheese was very overpowering here. It would have gone nicely with the cinnamon sugar, but it was not the case. Godfather - This was a devil's food cake donut dipped in chocolate with cannoli cream and nonpareils. This was not bad. I enjoyed the cake donut here, but the chocolate did not do it for me. Strawberry Shortcake - This was one of my favorites tried of the day. It was a vanilla cake donut dipped in vanilla icing with strawberries and a strawberry pie filling. I really enjoyed the components of this. The filling was a tad sweet, but overall, it was tasty. Glazed - There was something that did not seem right to me regarding this. The glaze was just not good. Cinnamon Sugar Jelly - This was my other favorite. The jelly was sweet and paired well with the cinnamon sugar dusting. Will I go back? Probably. read more

A good cake base donut. It didn't fall apart when you bit into it, held the toppings well. The donuts are on the small size (roughly 3in circumference). I wouldn't buy them again with some donuts costing up to $3.00!! We bought 6, costing about $17 and change. For me, it was meh. read more

The donuts are delicious. They look wonderful and taste even better. A very different variety. Very friendly read more

Donuts were all so good !!! It was great calling in order ahead Cant wait to try again read more

We went late in the day, so there was a limited selection of donuts. The ones we had were awesome!

The donuts are very good! I struggle to call them 'donuts' sometimes, because the more decadent of them skew towards a delicious pastry in the form of a donut... but they're fabulous. You can pay over $3 for a fancier donut, but it's well worth it in my opinion. Inside is always clean, and it feels a little nicer than your typical donut shop. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars... I've never once been there and had what felt like a nice encounter with the gentleman who would take and fulfill our order. I don't expect anyone to be jumping for joy, but his rather cranky demeanor was the subject of the car ride home on our last visit. It was just a little uncomfortable. But like I said, it's possible he was just having a bad day the three times I've gone, and the product is fantastic. Give it a shot, I'd you're in the area. read more

This was a stop on a road trip as I've been following them for a while. Overall the donuts were yummy except the french toast one, I didn't like that one at all. The cheesecake one was so good. I'd definitely stop by there again when I travel through NJ! read more

We drove here from Jackson nj. The donuts were OK. Everything had a good flavor however the doughnuts were cold..... meaning they had been sitting awhile. There wasn't any crisp or crunch to them which I enjoy with a cakey donut. The bacon on top of the maple bacon wasn't as crispy as it could have been. Canoli filling was very good and the caramel apple was very good..... French toast topping was better than I've ever had anywhere else... it had a crunch to the icing. All in all it was ok. It was about $15 for the 6 These doughnuts would be amazing if they were crisp and fresh read more

These are the perfect size if you just have a small inkling for a sugar craving in a donut form! They have some pretty good flavor selections and I was not really disappointed in any of them. They do however use the same base for all of their donuts. So if you do not like cake donuts this might not be for you. The s'mores donut was pretty good! The cinnamon and sugar was great I could get a box full of these and be happy! They also make really good milkshakes! Bonus! Take the drive and try them out and make sure you go in the right door otherwise you are in the small farm store. read more

A friend has been raving about this place for months. Then I noticed it was voted having the best donuts in the area on Boozy Burbs. A few weeks ago while in the area I couldn't resist. I popped in and boy am I glad I did! I am not a donut person but I just had to try these. They are creative, delightfully filling yet not too large. I ordered a few for home and to take to a friend's home. Wish I would have taken a photo (what Yelper doesn't take photos?) yeah--this one :( By the time I wanted to take a photo they were all gone. Anyhow-the point is -YOU MUST GET the donuts!!! read more

Living in Westchester county NY. Not a lot of homemade doughnut places. So I googled fresh doughnuts near me. D'Ercole popped up. So I drove 30 minutes and arrived 6:50AM ten minutes before opening. A nice man Joe let me in ( turned out to be the owner) I observed Joe making some doughnuts. You can see from the pictures all of the different varieties. Very clean establishment right next to a small nursery( not yet open) I purchased 3 dozen doughnuts so we could sample all. Amazing doughnuts everyone loved them. Well worth the trip I will definitely return read more

This place has become our go to after church. So clean and brand spanking new! Enter through the first door for donuts but the farm area has a connecting door as well. Owners were very friendly and we were greeted with smiles. Donuts are on the small size but they all looked beautifully made. We got an assortment but my ultimate fav was the apple cider donut. So moist and fresh! They also have coffee, cold brew, apple cider and a cooler case of bottled drinks. Outdoor bistro tables available for that instant bite. read more

Top Left: Cannoli Top Right: Boston Cream Middle Left: Strawberry Cheesecake Middle Right: Death by Chocolate Bottom Left: Strawberry Shortcake Bottom Right: Churro Half Dozen Price(Pictured): ~$13.85 A lot to choose from, all the donuts are 'mini' style. Which I find better suited to trying multiple donuts. I enjoyed the fact that even though they were mini, they found ways to improvise and provide filling in some by cutting them in half. None of them were bad tasting and some were exceptional(Churro, Cannoli). Quite a surprisingly scenic donut shop, nestled right in the middle of a garden(literally). If you ever find yourself on the jersey side of the GWB, make a stop read more

Good old homemade donuts. A bit pricey but a nice treat. I would recommend it. Maybe as a gift too.

I sometimes feel like there aren't any cool local mom and pop places donuts up here in almost upstate NY but feels more like Pennsylvania than NJ area until this place showed up right next to a garden center/ baby vegetables making place. When we visited the donut part was closed early for a family emergency (the owner's son made a unwise decision to get married). We we're still able to get a few donut that did not sell out yet. I also bought some wannabe Asian eggplants (not matured Italians eggplants) for eggplant in garlic sauce meal prep. All the donuts we purchased I think in a emergency discount were great. The maple bacon was my favorite because is tasted like bacon and not a donut. Most of the donuts we had we're cake types not yeast. ShopRite donuts is still my BAE. But this donut/vegetable enslavement camp is a great idea. read more

Edit: Regular donuts (ie: glazed, cinnamon sugar etc.) are actually pretty reasonably priced, in the $1.50ish range. The cannoli donut was the pricy fella but very good and worth a try when available. But you really can't beat the freshness and quality of these damn donuts, came back a couple of weeks later expecting the quality to dry out a bit, but nope, still as good as the first day they reopened. Today I noticed a French toast donut - no regrets!! read more

I went yesterday after yelping best doughnuts near me. The doughnuts were good, but... I spent about $33 for a dozen doughnuts. When I was wrung up I was told that the canoli donut was more than the rest, but I was also charged for two other doughnuts on top of the dozen and the canoli donut. I just figured the specific doughnuts I got were more expensive than the rest. After talking with a friend who has been there a few times, I found out I shouldn't have been charged for the dozen plus three doughnuts when all I got were a total of 12 doughnuts. Not cool. Not cool at all. The doughnuts were good, but not near good enough to not care that I got scammed. read more

Having been in Northvale for many years and seeing it evolve, I will say this is a cute establishment. The staff is very nice. The donuts were a little small and cold, but I wish they were hot and fresh. I walked in around 12:00pm - got a Samoa, French Toast, Cannoli, and Cinnamon Sugar donut and a small hot coffee. I liked the samoa donut - although they were a little dry on the inside. Its better than Dunkin Donuts, but could work on the density and temperature. And it was too cold inside - they need better warm ambience lighting and vibes. It felt too much like a deli. read more

D'Ercole Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Northvale, New Jersey

This weekend I decided to take my new car for an adventure so I decided to do a Foodie tour of Norwood, NJ. I knew where to go for lunch but I saved room for dessert. D'Ercole came highly recommended by my yelp buds. I mapped to it knowing I had to hurry since they close at 4pm on weekends and it was 3:52. It didn't help that I drove past it 2 or 3 times. Don't let this happen to you. Make sure to look for the D'Ercole Gardening center pull in that lot and the donut shops hidden in the corner with a rather small sign. They have their own parking lot. Shop doesn't have tables n chairs but room for them. It's very bright and clean. They only sell donuts and coffee so they make 1 Thing very well. We quickly selected 1/2 dozen since we knew we wouldn't likely be back since we live an hour away. We bought -1 chocolate glaze: rich cakes donut with simple perfect Sugar glaze -1 Cannoli filled: split like a sandwich with Cannoli cream in center. Perfect bite if cream and very flavorful donut .35 more -1 Maple Bacon: salty crunchy crackly sweet n salty .35 more -1 chocolate chocolate frosted: simple true coco fudgy taste -Strawberry Cheese Cake: very bright from strawberry jelly, didn't pick up cream cheese though. Which I like better .35 more -1 Cinnamon Caramel: the newest flavor. Doesn't look special but the flavors go so well together. 1/2 dozen cost around $9. They are small but the perfect size for me. This is just very special and I'd be happy pick up a dozen donuts to bring somewhere. Why do chains like Dunkin exist? read more

I have been hearing about this place and I'm so glad I went today. Best doughnuts I've ever had. So delicious and a great variety. Each type I tried was so special and so tasty. Standouts for me are the maple bacon and Samoa. I also like that they are just a touch smaller than other donuts so you can eat more lol! I will definitely return! read more

I recently placed an order for a couple dozen donuts. They were very accommodating...and helpful! I should have known that the fruity pebble donut wouldn't hold up well the next day. The donut was a bit soggy and the fruity pebble gets stale if you don't eat it right away. I did ask how if it would be ok to eat the next day...and they said it would be ok. But that is no one's fault except mine because I really just wanted the fruity pebble donut for looks on a dessert table. All of the other flavors I've tasted so far were delicious...! I'd definitely be back for more! read more

It's AMAZING ! Omg I had a craving for the longest time for a real handmade donut. We bought 4. Chocolate cupcake, Samoa, Mint chocolate chip and of course had to get a glazed. We tried the Samoa and chocolate cupcake so far. They were fresh , moist and absolutely delicious. The place was spotless!could. Could not even wait until tomorrow just had the Mint chocolate chip and glazed donut to die for ! read more

D'Ercole Donuts are hands down the best donuts ever! They are made fresh, and each bite down to the last crumb has flavorful. Not only are the donuts delicious, but the owner is one of a kind. He is friendly and never turns an order away. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. read more

I was craving a homemade cake donut, something besides dunkin, and this hit the spot! Sooo good, moist and fresh!

Amazing doughnuts! So fresh and soft! Awesome to be able to walk in with my boys and allow them to get WHATEVER they'd like!

Stopped in today for the first time. The owners are extremely helpful. They are a completely nut free shop but also were very helpful with all of our allergies. The donuts were fresh and delicious. read more

Amazing donuts! Went in first time meant to get one with coffee..ended up eating 4, not complaining!

I'm really surprised this place had such good reviews. The donuts are not good, they are about half the size of a regular donut and on top of that they are very expensive. So disappointing. All the donuts have the same dry, heavy base that's very thick. Not good. I will not be coming back and do not recommend going here for donuts. Go to rockland bakery instead. read more

This is a great hidden gem in Northvale. I took the kids this morning and all of the doughnuts were delicious. Too many choices to pick from! We tried the strawberry cheesecake, glazed, and chocolate covered with sprinkles. Very tasty! Great place to stop in for a quick bite or take them to go! read more
