WOW The meals were beyond creatively phenomenal. The ambiance was classically local and stunningly simple. The service was unmatched. I have never been anywhere that pleasantly surprised me as much as dodges market. read more

This place is permanently closed...wanted to try recently but it is no longer open. Looks like it might have been nice at one time

Came here with the hubby for some lunch on our way towards the shore. We sat for a bit when someone finally brought us menus. The server was friendly, although overwhelmed. There was no direction of whether to order at the counter or be seated. Hubby ordered a salad that he asked for with chicken but when it came out about 45 minutes later, there was no chicken. I ordered a salad and a mini hamburger- it was advertised on a Kaiser roll, but came out on two slices of bread. When I ordered it, I asked for it medium rare, but it was well done when it finally appeared. Disappointing. The food tasted fine although my hubby's chicken tasted like charcoal. About a half hour after waiting, the people next to us were told there was no roast beef. They adjusted their order and got their food before us, although we ordered before them. A bit strange. While I was waiting for our food, I walked inside to see what kind of things were for sale. They had balsamic vinegar and olive oil which were nice. The vinaigrette was really good and we were told they used the balsamic from it. However, on the shelves in the back, there was a cruddy jar of something that no one would buy. I picked it up not realizing it but put it back. I am adding a picture of the flowers. They were very nice. They should put some work into fixing the signs around that were peeling. read more

Very skimpy on food and overpriced and it was not welcoming at all. Do not recommend.

Horrible business. Please save yourself from getting scammed. We had our child's first birthday there. None of the food we ordered was provided (the pasta was disgusting). We were forced to take Scott (owner) to court where we had to listen to him lie and continuously mention my (recently) deceased brother to an effort to appear more sympathetic (despite Scott making us waste our time dealing with him and the court case days before my brother's funeral). We won our case and were awarded ~$2250, which Scott swore under oath he would pay....You can guess he never even attempted to pay. He is a liar and a thief. We have phone recordings, pictures, and much more evidence of his dishonesty. Please don't throw your money away and support an actual deserving local business read more

Amazing customer service ill definitely try again hoping to come back more and scott is the best cook! read more

Ordered food to be ready at 6:00.. wasn't ready bc phones and internet was down. No problem totally get it things happen... told us it would be 15 minutes for our food.. well an hour later wasn't ready and didn't give us the right food will NEVER go back read more

Tried for first time tonight. Has the charm of a small town general store. Odd setup to say the least. No real way to know if you should seat yourself or wait for hostess. My wife ordered soup and cheesesteak. I ordered buffalo chicken sub. Soup and cheesesteak both were very bland and underwhelming. Quite possibly the least appetizing cheesesteak we've ever had. The buffalo chicken sub was ok. The grilled chicken was too charred to be enjoyable. The hostess told us "he's known for his cheesesteaks". Not sure if that was a positive endorsement or not. Not on our list to visit again. We had high hopes of finding a new local eatery but this will not be one. I do have to thank the kind people who paid our bill. I will pay it forward in the future. read more

I ordered catering from here for an anniversary party and it exceeded my expectations. Every thing was delicious & arranged to perfection. Scott is awesome and very accommodating! I had to change my head Cout last minute and order a dessert tray. I'm sure glad I did. We had plenty of left over. We kindly fought over who was taking left overs home. Thank You read more

What a cute little spot! They have many delicious things. Fresh bread, many cakes and cookies, cheese, ham, nice tea, and good coffee... It was too hectic on Sat afternoon. I wanted to get Today's special Turkey sandwich but did not want to wait. So I purchased a cute banana chocolate moose cake. It was fresh and tasty. Food: Many fresh tasty foods and drinks! Price: $5-15 cakes around $5 sandwiches around $10 Staff: They look too hectic. I wish they could smile a little bit. Atmosphere: Warm peaceful relaxing with happy families and cute decorations in a cute old building. Parking lot: Behind the restaurant or street. read more

On our way to Amish country from South Jersey, Drove past this little place and decided to stop by. Quaint Decour fresh breads, very charming. We ordered bacon egg and cheese on a French Kaiser with fresh hot coffee. Was served by the father of the owner. Excellent service, fresh food, Nice photo opportunity. If you're ever nearby definitely come try this place out. read more

Oh yes, FRESH! That is the word we kept saying over and over again. I left so satisfied and happy. So what did we order? I got a half order of the Gorgonzola salad which accompanied a bacon tomato & bacon grilled cheddar cheese sandwich with light potato chips. My friend got the Scott's favorite cheesesteak. Where do I begin? The salad was crispy FRESH. The Gorgonzola... was the best I've ever had... so I ordered a pound of it on my way out the door. But back to the salad. Perfectly light balsamic vinaigrette glazed over freshly chopped apples, walnuts and cranberries. I will want to order this again. Now the sandwich... The bacon on the sandwich was hardy and oh so flavorful.... the bread.... soft and beautiful! Did I mention FRESH? And last but certainly not least, the cheesesteak. Fluffy bread, juicy meat, crispy fresh lettuce (sliced beautifully), and thick juicy seasoned tomatoes. What an awesome find! read more

Dodges grilled cheese was amazing as was the tomato soup! I also got the chicken stacker which only had chicken and balsamic that was my only disappointment but I would definitely return because we all make mistakes read more

Good food but took forever. 30 minutes in they told us they didn't have something we ordered. WTH. 45 minutes to get our order on a Saturday afternoon. Owner also needs to show some more pride in his establishment. Signs falling down, dirty areas, etc. read more

An amazing lunch spot for freshly cooked meals and desserts. Staff is always the friendliest and the place gives you such a homey feel. Vibes are immaculate and we love coming there.. we also drive almost 20 mins just for their phenomenal soups. Thank you Dodge's! read more

Cheesesteak with provolone cheese & fried onions + hot peppers was delicious!! Hot when picked it up and great roll! Highly recommend. Also, ordered the turkey club on rye toasted. Fresh & made to order perfect. Very good! Another highly recommend. read more

TOP NOTCH!! Ordered pickup catering for a birthday party I was hosting and it was SO GOOD!!!! I was really impressed with the variety, quantity, display and value. My husband picked up everything and once we unwrapped it and surveyed it all, I was so happy we ordered the food from Dodges. There is no way I could have bought the ingredients for everything for what I paid, Scott takes pride in his work and it really shows. read more

Overpriced food that's mediocre at best. Staff not pleasant. Very disappointed because it's a really cute building.

Do yourself a favor and head on down to Dodge's!This down-home country market style foodery is like the Sabrina's Cafe of south-south Jersey. They truly give them a run for their money. On Wednesday nights from May-October they host "Yappi" hour. From 5-9pm, hungry customers can bring their beloved dogs to dine outdoors and indoors. Doggies have a choice of chicken rice or salmon! Their owners can also partake in a wine and cheese tasting and have a choice of ordering off of the menu or a buffet of select entrees, veggies, and homemade salads. Food is fresh and delish! As a true chicken salad connoisseur, Dodge's is in my top 5. They have regular, waldorf style, and mango...hello lover. All of the other food is awesome as well, I just have an undying love for chicken salad that some may find a little strange. Be that as it may, Dodge's is great and the owners know how to do food and entertainment right. Check it out! read more

I had high hopes for this place I met my son for a birthday lunch on a Thursday. It took 45 minutes to get three sandwiches there was one girl taking restaurant orders take out orders and answering the phone. The roast beef panini had steakum on it not real roast beef my chef husband who was there confirmed it was steakum. The menu is way too big for what one chef can produce pick a few items and do them well disappointing I pass this place several times a week won't be back sorry read more

Wow! Who knew! Scott is lifesaver! We picked up a cheese board from another place that called themselves a cheese specialist the morning of our event. It was expensive, very disappointing and I was embarrassed to put it out. On our way, we knew of Dodge's and thought we could pick up something else up. Scott not only was willing to help, but took what the other vendor did and made it into a masterpiece. His presentation on a 4' real wood cheese was a show-stopper. We were lucky that he wasn't busy that day, but we will definitely be customers for life. Thanks Scott and crew for making us look good. read more

Amazing customer service! Though I didn't catch her name, she had red hair and she was super sweet. She kept checking in on us and making sure we had everything we needed. The food was absolutely delicious as well. An absolute must try!!! read more

Love the food, love the owner, Scott. Makes you feel like family. Love the old time charm. Scott has catered a wedding, a 50th birthday, 70th birthday snd numerous baby showers for us. Never disappointed. Either at hour home, a location or the store. The wedding was I believable. At my sons home he did an island theme. He brought the islands to us. Including food from each and the flowers he had were breathtaking. read more

Excellent food and host! I attended a baby shower yesterday and the room was beautiful! Wonderful day and highly recommended!

I am from Indiana and happened to stop by this little family owned restaurant. The food was awesome and I loved the mason jars as drink ware. Our server BREANA was by far the best and most professional server that has served me and my family in a long time. The Lentil Soup and Broccoli Soup were out of this world. The best Italian sub ever hands down. ****You will not be disappointed. Request BREANA, she is a sweet server. Quick access to the major highways!!!! read more

This place is phenomenally good. Great city food masquerading as country food. Don't be fooled by its quaint exterior and farmland location. It's one of the best kept secrets in South Jersey. The sandwiches alone are worth the trip. And the portions sizes match the prices perfectly. I've never left hungry. read more

New Dodges Market - The "Waldorf Salad" sandwich. - Grocery Near Me - Elmer, New Jersey

So hit or miss. Constant turnover of staff probably contributes to this. I keep coming back because they used to be so good. Sometimes the food is good then other times it's missing half the Ingredients it's supposed to have. I'll call and ask where half the salad toppings are and they say "oh we're out". Then why are you still letting people order it off the menu? 86 it if your missing half the ingredients to make it! This has happened so many times to me. read more

I've heard the food is good. They were open for once and I finally made it inside and they have one server running around by herself on a Saturday. Other customers told us we're better off getting the food to-go. Most customers are wandering around waiting for this poor girl to get to them. So we left it's a Saturday afternoon I don't want to wait an hour for my lunch since they're over working one girl. I've come by two other times trying to eat breakfast and they were closed for different reasons. If this place wasn't in the heart of Elmer it wouldn't still be afloat. read more

Great place to eat!! Deli,lunch,pastries,cookies dinner etc. Met the owners Scott and Jay-Great folks!. They put their heart and soul into everything they do! Were going back sat for lunck and to pick up christmas cookies. A step back in time. Ron Danino read more

Eileen Essi Just now Dodges Market gets a Perfect 10! My friend Nancy and I stopped by Dodges Market for a cup of soup but decided instead to get the special TRIO. This is a cup of soup, small fresh greens salad and a half sandwich. I had the cream of Asparagus and it was fabulous. The asparagus was so fresh with it still had a bit of crunch. Nancy had the Wedding Soup and was equally pleased. The sandwich grilled smoked gouda cheese with maple bacon on rye. Absolutely DELISH! Scott the charming owner and exceptional chef stopped by our table to say hello and ask if everything was good. We smiled and said, "Couldn't be better. We are in taste bud heaven." read more

This is the best compliment I could give a restaurant: After a while, I felt like I was at home. Food, service, and atmosphere are excellent. I can't wait to go back. The Thursday night chicken pot pie was better than any diner in New Jersey. Dodge's grilled cheese is one of the best grilled cheese ever. read more

Hey it's your boy, CW here, and i would personally DODGE this market, the food tastes like crusted semen and the name is misleading. 3 of 5 stars for name, but taste of food balences it out. read more

Please do not use this place for your wedding! You will be sorry. My daughter just got married and Dodges Market catered the event. The staff was rude especially the young man that had pancake duty. The staff used our house to clean their pancake containers and left the mix all over the sink and caked onto dishes that we in the skin. When cocktail hour was over and the guests moved up to the barn, the staff left all the food in the boathouse and didn't even clean up. After the wedding the family cleaned the boathouse. They left and didn't clean up. They said they would come back the next day and do it. They did but the family did most of the cleaning up from the food. The bride said NO tulips. Well guess what? There were tulips on every table! The only thing that was good out of all the food was the duck quiche. Brides, be aware move on and look elsewhere for your reception cater. Another family member used them for a funeral and they were also disappointed. They were 1/2 late and 2 hours late returning to clean up after the guest left. They repeatedly called the owner and he never answered or called back. Sincerely, An unhappy parent (only giving one star because I have to or I can't post my review) read more

Just had a wonderful brunch. I had the regular breakfast and my over easy eggs were done perfectly. My friend enjoyed her veggie omelette. The decor and atmosphere are fun. They have retained much of the furnishings from when it was a country store. Leave room for dessert. The cupcakes and baked goods looked delicious but I was too full from my breakfast to try any. read more

Dined with 5 people. Very disappointed 1hr to get the food . When we did get the food most of it was wrong. Had to ask for utensils. When waitress brought food one of our diners had order egg salad he was told there was no egg salad (how do you not have egg salad)at that time and he had nothing to eat. One of our diners asked for no lettuce or anything at all on his sandwich it had lettuce on it was told a new one was going to be made -guess what they brought the same sandwich out with SOME of the lettuce taken off and it was now cold. Many more mistakes were made just to daunting to describe. Food that we did get ,that was correct that we ate was just mediocre. They did take some off the bill and apologized but still disappointed Just last week two of the people in our party dined here and it was excellent what happened in just a week? read more

What a little gem! This fine establishment is nothing but fun. The food is outstanding and the service is friendly. I had the occasion to spend a evening with my wife and family on a Wednesday evening that included a fine buffet and local wine tasting. I can honestly say it was one of the more pleasurable dining experiences of the summer. The owner was a gentlemen who was both attentive to our meal and wanting to genuinely know a bit about us as his customer! I really liked the attention. High marks! The only suggestion I would make is to perhaps add some classical music. Plan a visit soon. read more
