Ferrara's Italian Bakery

First, the good part: the baked goods at Ferrara's are some of the best on the island. I've never…read morebought anything there that wasn't fresh and delicious. Their prices are reasonable, too. Five Stars for quality. Now, the not so good part: the service is terrible. On multiple occasions, I've asked for something only to find when I get home and open the box that I was given the wrong thing. It happened today. I asked for two sticky rolls with pecans and I was given two with walnuts. The person who seems to make the most mistakes is the older lady who works there (whom I suspect is the owner, as all the other employees defer to her). She always looks stressed and out-of-sorts. My other complaint is that they aren't customer friendly. Last year toward the end of the summer, a friend gave me a gift certificate from Ferrara's that was supposedly good to the end of October 1st when they close for the year. When we went to use it in September, our last visit of the season to the island, we found the store closed for a week for some family event. When I explained what had happened after they reopened this year and asked if they would still honor the certificate, the grumpy lady said "no" because they had already "closed the books" for the previous year. For crying out loud, it was $20 coupon and I was a regular customer (emphasis on "was"). Despite the excellent baked goods, I prefer to give my business to bakeries that treat me well. Hence, I now buy most of my baked goods elsewhere, including at Big Apple Bakery on E. Bay Avenue in Manahawkin (next to the Acme Supermarket). Their stuff is just as good as Ferrara's and they have a larger selection. One Star for service. Five Stars plus One Star divided by two is Three Stars overall.

My first visit to Ferraras went well. Arrived on Saturday morning at 6:45 and there was a short…read moreline out front probably about 10 people. The line moved fairly quickly. I was excited to try the sugar coated jelly doughnut, but in my opinion and others in my household, the jelly to donut ratio was off, there was too much jelly filling. The Boston cream doughnut was just OK and the orange Creamsicle I didn't like it at all. Overall, the donuts are good, but we like the jelly donuts at Big Apple bakery in Manahawkin better. The prices were reasonable, 5 donuts and an iced coffee was $15. The counter workers were very nice.

We really enjoyed the Bongo Shrimp, Mango Tango Tuna Bowl, and Jerk Chicken Quesadilla. We left excited to come back. This year, we ordered those same favorites along with the conch fritters, and unfortunately it was a letdown. The tuna was fatty and so heavily seasoned that you couldn't appreciate the natural flavor of the fish. The jerk chicken quesadilla had barely any chicken, and the conch fritters were severely overcooked and so chewy that we couldn't eat them. Thankfully, the Bongo Shrimp was just as delicious as we remembered. I'm hoping this was just an off day for the kitchen because our first visit was so good. Based on that experience, I'd still be willing to give them another chance.

I can only comment on the donuts, which are sent from heaven - if heaven is dough fried in hot oil then rolled in cinnamon and sugar. They also do powdered, but powdered sugar just doesn't stay in powder form on something delectably right out of hot oil. There is simply nothing like them, so it makes three seasons of the year very tough to make it through (unless you devilishly freeze them and hide them way back in a spot of the freezer that no one knows about). They toast up beautifully. Bring back memories of childhood - nothing beats the donuts! read more

The same little bits of fried and sugared heaven that I have always had the good fortune to consume for decades. So happy to see that the donuts haven't changed at all. This is one of the few places I would absolutely recommend to those who have never been to Long Beach Island. I didn't get to the donuts fast enough to take a picture, but the line out the door speaks for itself. A must visit. read more

I remember Marvel's as a kid when they were a full sized grocery store that made fresh donuts right out of the oil back then. No one was happier that I when they reopened across the street minus the grocery store, but kept their signature fresh donuts. You can't beat them, and I re-heat the cinnamon and sugared ones at home quite successfully, so I always over buy. ;) read more
