I'm having trouble justifying the price on these buns. When I first asked for a box of 4 and the total was 40 bucks I genuinely thought there was a mistake. I mean listen they're good. The flavor is there, they are a large size - I understand. It's still hard to understand how one pastry is 10 dollars and it's not even served fresh. You have to go home and warm them up in the microwave if you want them tasting fresh. Service was friendly. Again the flavors are there and they're good. I just wouldn't be back because of the price. read more

So much buzz about this place on social media and the press is such a draw. Unfortunately, I wasn't that impressed. I liked the convenient location and the ample parking (even though it's not a dine-in kinda place) and I liked the lady who helped me and suggested her favorite (which, honestly, was very delicious) but for the most part, I could take it or leave it. The buns were flat and didn't have a presence about them. I got the OG for the test to set the bar and I got the suggested Ube Coconut. The OG didn't hit. It was truly so mid. from the flavor to the icing...mid. The Ube on the other hand was moist, dense but in a good way, and flavorful. The Ube bun is carrying all the stars here. But for $10 a bun, this place just wasn't it for me. read more

This place is connected with Riposo coffee. As i was waiting for my coffee I ordered a Pumpkin Spice Bun. I tried a sample of the pumpkin bun last time i was here and it was tasty, soft, and warm. The one I ordered was $10... It wasn't warmed up, it was messy, hard & cold. For $10 I would have to expected my bun to be warmed up at least..... The icing was just slapped on, i don't think there was any sauce on it, like the one in the photo. I didn't even eat the bun. It was truly a disappoint for $10 The service was okay read more

Tried this place based off TikTok! It was easy to find and had ample parking. They change their menu often and have a couple of flavors to choose from including an OG. My friend and I go the pumpkin spice latte and apple cider doughnut during one visit and the coffee caramel during a different visit. The apple cider doughnut was delicious and kind of tasted like an apple pie. The pumpkin spice latte had a strong pumpkin and little more on the sweet side than the apple cider doughnut. The coffee caramel one has a good balance between the coffee taste and sweet. The coffee flavoring isn't overpowering. All the buns are large enough for two servings or split with another person. read more

One of the best cinnamon buns I've tried! They weren't too bready and the icing was not overly sweet! Parking was super easy and staff was incredible with trying to help us decide what to get they also give you instructions on how to heat them up to be able to eat them later!! read more

We drove south to try Mav's Top Buns after seeing them on Instagram. Worth the drive. So creamy and yummy with unique flavors. Nothing like it. I'd drive here again in a heartbeat. When you bring them home reheat in microwave and it's life changing. Love this place! read more

So I have been back to Mavs 2 or 3 more times since I wrote my original review. I have to say the Jersey corn buns are my new favorite. They are not overly sweet, has a hint of corn and just are totally delicious. The banana and also the lemon blueberry buns are good, but not something I'd get again-just not my thing. I'm not into fruits with my sweets. The Oreo bun was excellent, as well as the I think it was dulce de leche-I think-but could be wrong. My second new favorite. The birthday one (with the sprinkles was good). This week I tried the cannoli and hot fudge buns. The cannoli is now my third favorite. The hot fudge has a lot going on but it was good. read more

Mav's Top Buns delivers with large and tasty buns. I enjoyed the different flavors like banana pudding. I enjoyed their special flavors of the week more than the OG cinnamon roll. The OG is delicious but I preferred the creativity and flavor profiles of the other flavors I tried, which one could argue if they could still be called cinnamon buns (since they didn't have cinnamon in them). All in all, they are expensive but I would buy the buns again if the flavors of the week sound tasty. read more

Mav's Top Buns - OG, banana pudding, dulce de leche, and Oreo - Bakeries Near Me - Middletown Township, New Jersey

I've been wanting to come here for months now, and I finally got the opportunity when I was in the area. I fully anticipated there being a line, but thankful that there was none. Staff was very patient as I asked questions about the different flavors. It seems like they have a rotating list of them that is different from week to week. When I went, they had lavender, honey, Oreo, birthday cake, OG, pineapple express, and caramel coffee. The originals are nine dollars each and all other others are $10 so it is a bit pricey. They did inform that the buns can be frozen and reheated and they still come out tasty. I bought four of the six. My favorite was probably the OG. And even though they're probably not meant to be, I did eat one of the buns, four days later after keeping it in the fridge. Popped it in the microwave for a few seconds, and it was still delicious so they hold up well. There isn't seating inside so these are definitely to go. And there is a coffee counter in as well if you're looking to grab some. I will definitely be back. I liked how they also included heating and storing instructions directly on the packaging. read more

My favorite Cinnabons! I feel like it is so easy to make a pretty good cinny roll. But I also feel like it is very difficult to make an exceptional one. Mav's top buns have exceptional buns of so many different and amazing flavors. Highly recommend. read more

I've been stalking MTB's instagram account for months, and finally decided to take the plunge (aka the 45 minute drive one-way) to get some treats for Easter weekend. I was lucky enough to order everything I wanted during the Easter drop (make an account on BeerBroadcast prior to the drop!), by refreshing the page right at 8p and anxiously watching the slow website loading from too many people on it at the same time. The OG big buns were $35 for a box of 4, $38 for the lemon blueberry buns, and $45 for the nutella babka. It is pricey, but it is worth it for the buns. The nutella babka is heavy in weight, like 3 pounds I'd say, but I could only eat a small sliver at a time because it was too rich with Nutella for me. The buns though, the buns is where the hype is validated. They are big, pillowy, chewy, with the perfect amount of icing and taste fresh even after microwaving them for 30 seconds after being in the freezer for a week (not that long but they're that good that I wanted to eat more asap). I'd definitely buy the buns again, but am hoping for them to start shipping soon! read more

I've been following Mav's Top Buns on social media for a few months now and finally got my chance to check then out. This business started as somewhat of a pop-up type of business, doing pre-orders and allowing customers to pick them up at a designated location. They recently opened up their brick and mortar store in Middletown. It's located in the same strip mall as Bottle King, which isn't hard to miss as you're riding down 35. I arrived on a rainy Sunday morning, shortly before 9 am. If you've been following them on social media, there is a lot of hype about this place. They usually have a line out the door and usually sell out quickly. I was hoping to get there as soon as they opened at 8 or very soon after. I overslept and prayed that the weather would allow things to be in my favor. It was! When I got there, they still had pretty much everything available, except the Nutella babka. I was originally planning on getting two boxes of buns, but I realized that would be too much for me and one other person in my home. I decided to go with the OG Cinnamon Buns. Now...I'm sure many of you are familiar with good ole Cinnabon, so if I had to compare, I'll lay out a few differences. When you get the buns from Mav's Top Buns, they're already pre-made, so you're not going to see anyone behind the counter making fresh cinnamon rolls or putting them in a box for you after you order. However, they provide you with reheating instructions. You can buy the buns in boxes of 4 large buns or 8 mini buns. The prices of the boxes ranged from $34 to $36. It's been a minute since I've visited Cinnabon, but I feel like Mav's is a little pricier. However, they could be fairly close in price. As for the buns themselves, they were pretty tasty. However, I think I would've liked a little more of the cinnamon filling in the middle. I absolutely loved the vanilla bean cream cheese frosting on top and thought it was the perfect amount, not too much and not too little. Would I go back? Absolutely! I love supporting local businesses and Mav's usually has a variety of different bun flavors each week. It's almost like the Crumbl of cinnamon buns. You never know what flavors they'll put out each week. They still allow you to do pre-orders and pick ups which may be a good idea to avoid missing out on what you want. Another bummer is they're only open on the weekends, Saturdays and Sundays from 8 am to 11 am. I'm thinking that may change over time. They're still fairly new. read more

Just ok! Sadly I didn't think they were the best I ever had... I was able to grab 4 while they were doing a pop-up a few months ago in JC. I'm glad I tried it! They do many it easy to order online so you're guaranteed to get something which I liked or you can wait in line and pray! Lol the BunCult for this company is real! I'm so happy for this family who worked their butts off - maybe the plain isn't the way to go? I'd be willing to get a specialty flavor or item bakery item! Def recommend heating it up! But sadly wont be going out of my way for the plain classic bun... I guess I've become a cinnamon bun snob.. :/ read more

I got a large bun 4 pack and a 10 bun (I think) small pack. The directions on the box were for microwave only, and I only use an oven/toaster, so finding the right time and temperature was kinda a guessing game. In the end, I'd say I figured it out, but not after a few super hot buns and a few cold in the center buns. The chocolate/oreo bun we did was unique, but the rest all kinda tasted the same with a different topping. These are way better than cinnabon, but I would say not as good as cinnaholic because they are very sweet. But yea, top 3 buns I've ever had- really nice. And yes- also expensive. read more

Mav's top buns are always delicious. Have tried the original ones as well as rainbow cookies. Both were incredible.

I think the dough of the bun was outstanding. So fluffy. However, the frosting (I got the original top bun) tasted more like butter than cream cheese. It may be a personal preference tho. The place is cute and it shares the space with a coffee place. The woman behind the counter was very polite and the service was good, I just don't think I'll return. read more

Great family, great product, great service/shop, great that they now ship! Not your typical cinnamon buns

Kindest staff. Lovely owner. Goes above and beyond for all people. Don't be alarmed if her amazing ratings go down because someone who was saying awfully bigoted comments got angry at her and is now informing people to leave bad reviews. This man was absolutely in the wrong and got mad she was doing something lovely for the lgbtq+ community. Buns are creative and fun with unique flavors like banana cream, chocolate peanut butter, lemon-blueberry. read more

LOVE THESE BUNS!!! Ok - so I've been following Mav's on IG for a while - I live in Northern NJ, so getting to the physical shop is a bit challenging. Lucky for me, they have done a few pop ups in Chester, NJ which is much more commutable for me. The OG buns are FABULOUS! I've gotten the minis and the regular size - both were amazing. My husband enjoyed them as well and he really liked the bun itself and the fact that the frosting wasn't insanely sweet. Their Ube buns were also delicious - not overly sweet and a great dedication to the Filipino flavor. I also really enjoyed the Oreo one - again the flavors were delicious and the right amount of sweetness, but not overpowering. I've had a few flavors but those have been my favorites so far. I'm still dying to try the Pistachio Baklava (bring those to Chester soon) and I honestly would love a take and bake version. I'm sure that's harder to do with the pop-up but I would love to bake off the cinnamon rolls during the holidays for breakfast! I also would kill to see you hold a pop up in Morristown - I think you'd make a killing! While some may think the price point is a little high, I actually think it's appropriate given it's a boutique shop and a fantastic product. I think the quality is well worth the price and the service has been awesome, so I'm willing to pay for it! read more

Tasty and great service! I don't live close but will take a trip every so often for any and all of this shop's offerings.

What a terrific business run with love by a wonderful family. Not only are their cinnamon buns to die for, they also care about their community. They're exactly the kind of local business that you want to support - they put love into their product, are warm and caring to customers, and bring joy to us one bun at a time! I only wish we could get them more often in Northern NJ!! read more

Best cinnamon buns you'll ever try!! I've had my fair share of bakery buns and have often been disappointed by how dry they can be. Mav's are extremely moist, soft, pillows of deliciousness!

There's something for everyone to love! read more

ok here goes.. i was so looking forward to going her as i have heard about it for awhile. i have to tell you was pretty disappointed... first they are not cheap at all there are no items so you have to wait till they tell u what they have left.. ordered the original which was good ordered a seven layer which is the same as original except for some broken seven layer cookie crumbs on top and four dollars extra disappointed .. also ordered an apple something same as an original except had a scoop of caned apple filling and a few crumbs on it also more than original disappointed as well three regular plus two mins cost me 39.75 .. was going to purchase a nutella bread but was $45.00 are they kidding i don't think i will go back .. still trying to figure out what all the fuss was about gave it two stars for the original only read more

This was a very upsetting ordeal! I drove 50 min to try these out because my girlfriend loves the cina buns from Costco! I drove all the way up there thinking I could get some and I was told I had to pre order and they had nothing to sell me. I pre-ordered the next day for the following weekend and was not able to choose what I wanted! It was either 4 buns they had in a variety pack or 4 of each kind. We went with the OG buns. They were not worth the overpriced sum of $35!!! The cream was not very sweet and comparing them to Costco just isn't fair! Not only are the Costco buns much tastier they only cost $16 and you get twice as many and they're larger! I'm going to assume the special buns are what all the fuss is about but not being able to pick what we wanted was just bad business! We will never waste or time and money on this place ever again! Don't waste your time on they OG buns! We still have two sitting in the fridge and it's a week later! read more
