    Bagel, cheese and bacon
    Nohelia D.

    Their bagels are amazing! If you're the kind of person who enjoys trying new things out then this place has to be on your list. They have SO many options when it comes to bagels and also cream cheese. The service is great even though they are always busy in the mornings. Typical bagel spot, with some space outside. Would recommend to order ahead if possible because when it's pack it crazy packed, yet worth it every time.

    Pumpkin bagel. Pumpkin cream cheese

    Bagel nook is definitely the place to go if you like flavored cream cheese, flavored bagels, and baked goods (doughnuts, muffins). They have tons of flavors of CC such as cannoli, bacon cheddar, cookie monster & more. For the fall season, I tried the pumpkin bagel with the pumpkin CC. It was amazing- the cc was the perfect combo of pumpkin and cc it wasn't so overpowering. Although, I was disappointed with the presentation compared to other photos I've seen online. They made it extremely messy with cc coming out of the sides the minute I touched the bagel I had cc all over my hand. On the other hand, the cannoli doughnut is so delicious. The cannoli cream is absolutely incredible. I would rate it 11/10. The bacon egg & cheese bagel was good, but definitely not the best that I've ever had. They definitely don't make a "thick" or "full" BEC. I'd highly recommend getting flavored cream cheeses and flavored bagels here!!! The service is also very good all of the girls have incredible customer service skills and handling the high volume of customers.

    Flaming Hot Cheetos Bagel w/Bacon Scallion Cream Cheese
    Jeff D.

    This is one of those must visits if you are a lover of bagels and live in Monmouth County. Their selection includes everything from traditional to the off the wall flavors (Flamin Hot Cheeto and Fruity Pebbles). They also have a wide variety of sandwiches, breakfast options, and coffee drinks. The service is friendly and fast. Expect it to be busy, especially on weekends but it is more than worth your time.

    Had to half and half the bagel so I can try what I wanted which is the hot Cheeto which is what I ordered to begin with

    The bagels were good BUT if you are going to advertise something on a social media platform make sure you have EVERYTHING IN STORE. 50 dollars spent and we couldn't get the bagels you originally ordered because they gave one to another costumer who ordered after us? How professional? We had to change our order twice and then they expected us to pay more after they messed up our order? Would never be coming back came all the way from Brooklyn ny for this BROOKLYN BAGLES ARE BETTER ANYWAY THANKS FOR NOTHING

    Best bagels and coffee ever. Gets very crowded but the staff works quickly and efficiently. And they're very friendly. I love coming here

    Supposedly a buttered bagel !

    Steering clear of this place. Apparently good help is hard to come by ! I hate the fact that they took over Eli's Bagel in the Pond Road Plaza. If you are in Freehold- it's Terrace Bagel all the way!

    Pumpkin shaped bagel they usually make in October

    Whether you crave a normal bagel with BEC, or a crazy shaped bagel with a fun cream cheese option, Bagel Nook is the place! I've been a few times and always come for their seasonally colored bagels. I've had a pumpkin shaped bagel with scallion cream cheese and a tie dyed bagel with bacon, egg and cheese. Their pumpkin shaped bagel tastes more artificial than their normal shaped bagels so I'm not sure if I'll opt for a crazy shaped bagel again, however they do get me in the spirit! The bagels are textured nice and chewy with a soft dough on the inside. They always provide ample cream cheese and they pack their BEC very nicely with ample portions. They also sell donuts, other pastries, and delicious looking breakfast options like French toast and pancakes which I'd like to someday try. I'm not really interested in their crazy flavors of cream cheese (like the Cookie Monster cream cheese for example) but they are there for more adventurous cream cheese tasters! Keep in mind they are busy all morning long every time I stop in on a weekend. Be prepared to wait. They have a second location in Princeton as well.

    Flaming Hot Cheetos w/ everything seeds CC, jalapeño cheddar with veggie CC, sesame flat with cool ranch CC
    Manikaa N.

    Can't deny this place has OPTIONS - but whether those options are worth coming back for is still up for debate. Came here on a Saturday morning, so there was a line (as expected), with the place filled with a large number of kids, which makes sense with all the crazy sweet flavors available. They have ~4-5 tables with seating for four, so grab one if you can! My group of four split a few different bagels so we could try more and determine who would come back. In all, everyone concluded they're glad they tried it but wouldn't come back. I personally expected more from their flaming hot Cheetos bagel. Not pictured: -breakfast sandwich on a bagel (meat wasn't well cooked, minimal flavor, large amount of Mayo) -blueberry French toast bagel with maple syrup butter (under toasted, not as sweet as you would think it would be)

    Jalapeño cheddar bagel with scallion cream cheese bacon and jelly ... for the perfect party in you mouth

Grown-up Tuna sandwich, which is minced raw ahi tuna with soy sriracha mayo and pickles on egg bread roll. This was the best tuna salad ever created and produced! This is basically tuna poke on a sandwich and we all loved it. We were upset when we were done! Should've ordered two. LOL. Seared tuna salad, which is seared tuna with pickled carrot, red onion and wasabi vinaigrette. We thought it was pretty good. The tuna was seared nicely. Hubs think they should have a lightly seared tuna sandwich, too! LOL Chicken salad sandwich, which is chicken salad on egg bread roll. Hubs said that this was good, too. Their rolls are really soft here. I asked if we could buy another roll but was told that we have to order another sandwich. The owner makes enough rolls for his sandwiches. We also ordered soup but forgot the name of it. I think it was carrot ginger and it wasn't bad. The owner was giving us little samples of all his soups, as soon as we walked in. Service was really friendly and patient. Will definitely return to try that tuna salad sandwich again!

    Along this highway in Farmingdale, you will find an Italian deli that serves quality ingredients. I…read moreonly went there to support local businesses, and I will say that I do not regret it. Brand: 5/5 Tenth and Willow is an Italian-themed deli located in Colts Neck Plaza in Farmingdale. The logo has the Italian flag emblazoned in the background. The solid aesthetics on the website of the sparkles and shining rays perfectly represent the brand. When it comes to the interior, I will say that they deliver on all they promise, for you will find many Italian food and ingredients throughout the establishment. Website: 5/5 It brings you immediately to an image of a sandwich, which makes a good first impression on anyone coming to the site. Scrolling down, you encounter the backstory and the menu with many selections from beverages to wraps to heroes. You will find at the bottom a regularly updated blog section filled with fun facts of Tenth and Willow. Wait Time: 5/5 I experienced no delay or disruptions during the time I waited for my order. Ambiance: 4/5 The establishment housed plenty of Manhattan Specials of varying flavors throughout the aisles. You will also find plenty of cookies and treats upon racks, including meats and cheese hidden behind large glass counters. The aisles and the space between them and the deli did feel cramped with no tables or seats available. Food: 5/5 I ordered the Maple Ham Hero, which considers maple ham, fontana cheese, lettuce, tomato, and balsamic glaze. The maple ham had a sweet taste, as expected, which complements well with the sharp fontana cheese and the lettuce. The balsamic glaze had its own strong taste. The bread held well and had a decent amount of crunch, without becoming stale. Everything in the hero stayed in place while it also had a rich, thick taste. Service: 5/5 The staff managed to get my order without any issues. Worth The Money?: 4/5 The selection of meals, such as heroes, definitely reflect the brand of Tenth and Willow as an Italian market-and-deli. While I did not have a problem waiting, it did feel cumbersome in a cramped area for my order. Nevertheless, the ambiance of exploring around the establishment did not have an issue with me, especially as I got to see the delicacies from the cookies to the marzipan. As for the Maple Ham Hero, the appropriate wait time matched the quality of the food. The organization of the food shows that the staff care about their ingredients. They make it clear on their website that most of their partners provided locally sourced ingredients. If that is true, then this establishment deserves more attention, and I can see how Italian restaurants would rely on this deli for their ingredients. While the website does not scroll down with silky speed, it does provide a sense of welcoming ambiance with its deep, green color. I will say ultimately that the price of the Maple Ham Hero and the experience going to Tenth and Willow was worth it. Rating: 5/5 Stars I have hope that Tenth and Willow will continue to have relevance in Farmingdale, and among those who prioritize Italian cuisine and ingredients. Recommend To... Anyone just starting an Italian restaurant and is looking for key ingredients, since you would be supporting local producers while propping up your local business, thus creating a network of local businesses that help the community through the local multiplier effect. I also recommend to anyone looking to add more to their Italian-inspired cuisine and need suggestions about which meats, cheese, or spices to use. If you like Manhattan Special, then I would also recommend this establishment to you.

I had a tuna wrap (spinach wrap). The tuna was flavorful. My only issue was the spinach wrap. It took a little effort to bite through so I don't know if that means it wasn't as fresh. They had some other things I would like to try and will. As for the wrap, I would just call it a one off.
