oh my god,this bakery is the best. I will travel and stand on line just to get a jelly stick. Everything is fresh and so delicious. Well worth the trip and wait read more

Love this place, as does my sister who comes to visit from SC. It's a place we MUST go when she's here. We didn't get there until about 3:30 on Sunday and I was afraid nothing would be left. But, they was plenty to choose from. While I love their large turnovers, we got a strawberry shortcake as our dinner dessert. Everyone loved it! We also got small eclairs, cream puffs, and an assortment of Italian cookies. I only have a few of the cookies left to show as a picture as everything else was eaten (or taken home with my sister!). The place can get very crowded but it was not when we were there. The staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about their products. It is truly the best bakery around! read more

This place is crowded on the weekend! I stopped in to try a few donuts and WOW. I was pleasantly surprised. They had some of the best flavored jelly I've tried. I will absolutely be coming back. I also noticed they had beautiful AND affordable pre-made cakes ready to go. So glad I found this spot! read more

If ordering online to send out of state, buyer beware. Sent 3 orders of goods out of state, two were received in timely manner. Yes, I did see Muellers comment about once product leaves they take no responsibility. But I thought, it's Muellers, shouldn't have an issue. Sent items in March and 2 arrived in 3-5 days but a third order arrived yesterday 4/14- arriving 21 days after sent date. Both buying and receiving parties have been loyal Mueller customer's for over 50 years. All were really disappointed. Save your money. read more

We've also been coming here for years and they are not only always consistent, but just a staple in the Jersey Shore summers. We are always picking something up whenever we need to bring something to someone else's house and it never fails to be a great gift. read more

Easy online ordering system, cake was prepared as requested and very tasty! Only downfall, I selected strawberry inside and it barely had 1 single cut up strawberry. It was maybe 3/4 tiny pieces in the center. I would definitely order again, taste was great, but would be sure to ask for additional strawberry beyond 3/4 little baby pieces inside the cake. read more

I drove all the way from ocean grove to buy an entire crumb cake that costs $18. A few years ago a fellow employee used bring them in. They were double the size and soft melt in your mouth crumbs and cake. This was flat, stale and small hard crumbs . What a shame it was nothing like in the past. NJ was known for this crumb cake I have had much better! I will never go back or recommend. We gave it away to a neighbor ! read more

Impeccably clean , fast moving , small old world Americana charm. Cases filled top to bottom. Counter women will answer any and all questions and make great suggestions. Even with line your in and out. read more

Mehhhhh. The coffee was not good and the cup was scalding. The cheese ring was 8 out of 10, a tad bit too sweet. My husband said the powdered jelly donut was "awful". My daughter loved the small tie dye rainbow sprinkle cookies. Will probably return just for the cookies. read more

I love this spot for their sugar cookies - it's nostalgic and reminiscent of the cookies I had growing up. I've also tried a few of their pies and cakes, and they're quite good. When it comes to service, this is a local shop and extremely busy, especially during the summer months. Therefore, their line is insane and when they call your number, there is never really time to properly browse what they have to offer. If you try to browse before your number is called, as you should, it feels a bit too crowded and unseemly to try to poke towards the front and see the display cases properly. read more

Fabulous bakery! Huge selection of danish, crumb cake, etc. etc. very busy, yet so worth it. Staff efficiently move things along, very pleasant. Parking can be a challenge, yet once again worth it! Enjoy! read more

We love Mueller's coffee cake! We bring it to my great-grandmother's house every year. This week, we celebrated my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary, and we bought a cake from Mueller's for the party. It was a beautiful design (see attached picture!), and was topped with a delicious, fluffy whipped cream. The cake was a hit! Everyone came back for seconds. When we came in today (July 13) to buy coffee cake, everyone on the staff were very friendly and the line moved quickly. Mueller's also offers gluten-free cupcakes and cookies, as well as egg- and dairy-free cookies! read more

Mueller's Bakery in Bay Headis a delicious place with their renowned crumb buns (glazed or powdered sugar) , cakes, pies, cookies and bread! Also apple turnovers, gluten-free treats, and staff that are helpful, and to everyone's surprise----even if they work at Mueller's they all do not weigh 400 pounds! On the weekends and before holidays, you need to take a number, but the wait is not long....sometimes you can "luck out" and get in and out...when Superstorm Sandy hit....the rumor was as long as the First Responders got coffee and crumb buns...the Bakery's power would be restored quickly..... Come in once and you will be a return customer! read more

After hearing from my sorority sister who works there about it for 15 years I finally visited and damn was it worth the wait! For the crumb to cake ratio alone! They also sell the crumbs by themselves which I highly recommend you microwave and put on top of ice cream! I also got a petit four which tasted like a love match between marzipan and cake dipped in gorgeous icing. I also got a brownie which was similar to the petit four in how moist, light and flavorful it was! I would love to go back and try absolutely everything! Jersey has some of the best bakeries I've been to throughout the world and this one is the epitome of what makes them so great! Beautiful variety, lovely service and absolutely delicious treats! read more

I was in Bay Head for 3 days and I went to Mueller's Bakery every day. So much variety to choose from, had to go back every day to try out all their specialities. The bakery had lines every day we went. It moved pretty quickly though. Like more places, mask is required to be worn prior to to entry. The crumb cake was pretty nice - it was different and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I ended up bringing a slab back to NYC as apparently it freezes well. My other favourites are the chocolate eclairs and the blueberry custard in a pastry topped with powdered sugar. Those were sooo good. Prices are pretty decent - definitely cheaper than city prices. Each purchase was nicely boxed with love. Cash and card are accepted. Will definitely be coming back here next time I am in Bay Head. read more

Bakery is good but prices are unreasonable. I'll make my own brownies at these prices!

This bakery has everything! Wow-so many choices. I ended up bringing apple pie and banana nut loaf home. I really would have liked to have taken more home. The employees are very friendly and helpful as well. Make sure not to visit on a Monday as that is when they are closed. But always a good reason to come back! read more

I go there for the crumb cake. Heavy on the crumbs, light on the cake. I have not tried their other cakes and bread.

Wow, what a beautiful and delicious spot! We grabbed 2 cakes to bring to a friends beach house as her family was inviting us! The crumb cake it delish but we also grabbed a blueberry pocket pie- the custard and crust is to die for. Loved it! We also grabbed a layer Beach cake, so cute and also delicious!! Would recommend you stop by, this is a MUST. I also noticed they had dairy free, GF, vegan options as well!! read more

Terrific bread, pastries, and pies. We grabbed a Key Lime pie to bring to a party in Manasquan, and it was well received. Prices are fair, given that it's in $$$$ Bay Head, loads of parking across the street, and the staff behind the counter keeps the inevitable lines moving quickly. A NJ shore classic! (Edited to add-the preppy blonde Bay Head moms are easy on the eyes, too)! read more

Yet another great bakery one of the few left in the area. It's well worth the trip. A little out of the way but the town parking lot across the street always has spots. read more

What might you think when you see people lining up to buy something and it's not even the day before a holiday? Maybe, they must be selling something pretty good, there. They are. Crumb buns!! In several yummy flavors! My favorite was the traditional (plain) though it was fun to taste the glazed and raspberry (?) glazed. Don't miss them. read more

We bought their crumb cake that everyone raves about. It was all crumb and very little cake. Disappointing. Delponte's bakery in Bradley Beach is still the best in my book. read more

Very good bakery. They are known for their crumb cakes. They were good. I wouldn't say amazing. But certainly good. Donuts might have been better. Also. Great service on a busy summer day. read more

Ok, yah, I'm a fan but on this fifth trip to Jersey shore this season, I stop by to pick up 4 or 5 different specialty items. Since It's blueberry season, I tried the blueberry flats, the blueberry crumb cake, the blueberry fritters and the blueberry strudel. I read on FB the bakery offered these challah bread pretzels powdered in cinnamon sugar and excited to try them. So disappointed in them (see photo)! They were baked on one side but underside was burnt and couldn't see that on display rack. I love sweets and we walk there while in town. Great job baking ladies, everything else was on point! read more

I am very sad to write this unfavorable review for this bakery, since I have used this establishment for years now! My daughter ordered ,in advance , 24 plus two egg free cupcakes for my twin grandsons 5th birthday celebration. All the cupcakes were so stale that even the children didn't eat them. $60.plus , Poorly spent! read more

Drove about 45 minutes just to get these frogs. Nostalgia for me. We used to get these every year for St. Patrick's Day but you can't find them around here anymore. These are just like I remember, overly sweet fondant, the icing in the middle was good, not too sweet. Icing in middle was pink which always makes me laugh when you eat them. Well worth the trip, took me down memory lane read more

Albeit long, Mueller's is offering a stellar delivering service during COVID-19 phase 3!! Their website is very clear, and warn customers that if you order delivery Fri-Sun (and you live in a 10 mile radius) you will receive your goodies the next day. MY Mueller's order was (eventually) hand-delivered to me in Sea Girt by 2pm the next day!! Prior to this delivery, I had never tried their blueberry scones! I have to say they are delicious and honestly taste like a one of the better blueberry muffins out there. read more

Awesome ! Bakery goods excellent I have never been disappointed in their bakery products.

Updating this review-- Mueller's is back! My Grandma says this is the way she always remembers it! They definitely readjusted their pans and the crumb cake has been perfect. Lucious crumbs with very little cake underneath. Simply the best!! So happy. ---------------------------------------------------- read more

Visited this bakery while I was in the area crabbing and was told by my friend that they have great crumb cake. Stopped by when we were done and they were pretty busy for a weekday afternoon. I got right to business and ordered two pieces of crumb cake and also got a cherry/almond turnover because it looked really good. My friends got donuts too which are supposed to be very good as well but I decided to stay just moderately chubby and stuck with what I got. They have a huge assortment of cakes, pies, and pastries and the service was pleasant and quick. I will tell you that the crumb cake was some of the best I've had, the glaze added a nice touch....cherry turnover was really good too. They definitely got my return business when I'm in the area. Definitely recommended. read more

Actually better than before (is that possible) As good as I remember. It has been a few years since we were here as we skipped the shore on our last few visits back home. The bakery was hopping when we went on a Monday afternoon. They have increased their variety of goods, especially in their cakes. Still, though the best offering is the crumb cake square. It has become pricier topping out at $18; when we first started getting it in the mid 80's, I think it was like $3. Yikes! They also make the crumb buns with various jams. The staff was helpful and friendly so much so that I didn't care that I paid $18 for a 10 inch square. read more

People stand out here for hours waiting on their orders I don't understand why. Waiting over an hour for two donuts is just absurd. They need to hire more people or make a pick up line/window for quick pastry orders or figure out a better process. The crumb cake is okay I have certainly had better it's very thin and the cake part is not as tasty as others I have had . Their cookies are decorative but not tasteful read more

Food is awesome especially the Jersey blues menu. Ambiance is nice because it's in a nice location. Service was good.

The jelly donuts are the best! Also the German Pretzels are real good when they have them! read more

Mueller's Bakery in Bay Head, NJ has been my family's favorite bakery since I was a child. From gorgeous custom birthday cakes, cookies and brownies to fresh bread & rolls, crumb buns, crumb cake, donuts and delicious coffee, Mueller's has something for everyone! My families favorites; powdered jelly donuts, chocolate frosted brownies, sugar cookies, glazed & powdered sugar crumb cake, hot cross buns and pumpkin nut muffins. Nice to see the same employees after all these years and the staff is very happy & friendly. You can tell they love their jobs! Follow their Instagram for weekly specials, custom hours and lovely photos of their yummy baked goods! Ordering from out of state is easy, affordable and I've never had an issue with damaged goods. Friendly tip; their crumb cake freezes beautifully so don't be shy about grabbing an extra for the freezer, it'll defrost in no time if you leave it out on the counter. Even though I live in North Carolina now, I'm very pleased to still have the pleasure of enjoying my childhood favorites from NJ. Thanks a million, Mueller's! read more
