The ordering process was simple, and the food was ready quickly. I had a chicken salad on a garlic bagel ($8.99?) as well as trying six mini donuts ($7.50?). The chicken salad also came with a potato salad, coleslaw, or a pickle. I opted for a pickle that was decent. The chicken salad was the highlight of the sandwich. It was all white meat with an ideal helping of mayonnaise and other seasoning. The garlic bagel was alright, nice texture, but a little small. It was nice to see the amount of chicken salad present. The donuts I tried are below. All the donuts were light. Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough - This was alright. It seemed to be more of a chocolate flavor rather than cookie dough. There was not a great balance here. Strawberry Shortcake - This was a vanilla donut with buttercream icing and a strawberry. I thought the buttercream icing would be too sweet, but that was not the case at all. It was delicate and complimented the lone strawberry piece nicely. Apple Crumb Cake - This was an apple crunch donut with rolled sugar and topped with apple compete, homemade graham cracker pie crust and drizzled with vanilla frosting. This was easily the best one. The warm apple complete and the homemade graham cracker crust made for an unbelievable combination. The sugar did not hurt either. Oreo Crunch - This was essentially just Oreo pieces with vanilla icing. It was not bad. I thought there were too many Oreo crumbles and pieces. The donut layer was hardly tasted. Maple Bacon Waffle - This was a vanilla donut in a maple glaze with a mini waffle and bacon pieces. I am not a huge fan of bacon on a donut, but this one of the better ones I tried. The bacon went well with the waffle and maple glaze. My only issue was the waffle. It was a little stale, but I imagine because it just lays on the donut as it was not made to order. Jelly - This was a traditional jelly donut with sugar. This was good. The jelly was thick and enough was present where every bite had a taste of jelly. The jelly I believe was of the raspberry variety. Will I go back? Yes.

Not too much seating, but you've got a couple tables where you can settle for a bit! The wall art is out of this world (literally)...loving the outerspace theme!! Then, your eyes travel over to the good stuff....donuts of all varieties! You've got the basics at $1, and then some signature donuts at $3. There's literally a Donut for everyone!! Let's talk details: - Size: They def appear smaller than your typical Donut, but they don't have the Donut hole, so in reality, you're getting a decent helping for $1 - Variety: You've got the basics (boston creme, jelly, glazed...), but then there's blueberry with lemon filling, coconunt with lemon filling, cereal topped, vanilla oreo...). - Taste & Texture: Dude, I'm not kidding. These were some of the best donuts I've had. The texture is soft, with a slight chew. You can literally see the air pockets when you tear it apart. We tried the vanilla oreo, strawberry vanilla filled, blueberry lemon filled, and powdered Jelly). Each had a lovely flavor! You can stop at one...but then you'll be craving more not even an hour later. - Shelf life: We all know how donuts can go stale from certain establishments (yet we still go back ;) ). Not these guys. They are truly baked fresh each. I practiced some serious self constraint and tested them over three days (I couldn't wait any longer(. The donuts held up through day 3, no lie. Now, here's the thing...you hear $1 donuts, you think this is gonna be a hit or miss, but you don't feel bad cause it's just a dollar so you're not breaking the bank. Then you bite into one of these bad boys and you're like damn...that's a dollar donut??!! That was my experience and I think it will be yours as well! If you haven't done so yet, stop by dollar donuts soon. I promise you will not be disappointed :) P.S. Thank you Lou for an exceptional experience. I still can't believe you literally went in the back to powder some Jelly donuts when you were out of them. That kind of service is absolutely above and beyond!! Loved hearing your family's story, and truly wishing you much success!

Some tables, chairs, simple decor, coffee, and the star THE DONUTS. The shop closed at 5, but they still had a good selection of donuts to choose from. I ended up getting 12 - Boston cream, Napoleon Boston cream, coco pebbles, captain crunch, m&m, chocolate sprinkle, caramel pretzel, and glazed. OMG, the donuts were soft and yummy we almost ate all of the 12 donuts! BEST PART IS THEY ARE ONLY $1!!!!!!!! Like what?!!!!! Definitely a must go, and we shall be back to try the other flavors!!!!

Yesterday I purchased eight brownies for over $30 from this bakery for a birthday celebration at work. At that price point, I expected something fresh, rich, and worthy of being brought to a group. What I got instead were stale, dry brownies that tasted like they had been sitting out for days. It was honestly embarrassing to serve them. They were noticeably old and completely underwhelming, especially for a bakery that positions itself as a premium spot. If you're charging luxury prices, the product needs to match. Freshness should be the absolute bare minimum, and unfortunately, that wasn't even close here. I won't be returning, and I definitely wouldn't recommend this place for anything you're bringing to an event.

The various types of biscotti we purchased as well as the crumble cheesecake were highlights from our selections. Definitely worth a stop in to see what interests your sweet tooth. The Deets: After dinner in Asbury Park this recent visit, it was decided a visit was needed down to Del Ponte's Bakery along Main St in Bradley Beach. This bakery's huge selection of Italian pastries and sweet treats was almost overwhelming! Multiple display cases of deliciousness awaited us inside the shop, we really took our time to look over all of it before decisions were made. We had basically thought going in that we would nab some fresh biscotti (which of course, we did, in different varieties, all delicious) but also ended up with some other goodies such as crumble cheesecake (so good!), cookies, etc. We feasted well each morning, believe you me. It was on the Friday evening of Labor Day holiday weekend and I think the young staffers there had a long day. We were served well, but from the "Can I help who is next, already?!" for example that was shouted out across the shop full of customers sort of came across as "let's get this done now" but hey, never know what they already had been through that day, right? They gathered up all our choices from case to case when it was our turn and we were pretty pleased with the boxes full of baked goodness as all of it didn't last long. Del Ponte's Bakery is a good stop to make if wanting some sweet treats to take home and enjoy, we are glad we did so.

Plenty of sandwiches on the menu, drinks, chips, cold cuts, ready to make pasta.... what more is there to ask. And a limited frills experience too. We ordered the Princetonian & Casey between the two of us. Also got a bag of mango habanero chips & freshly squeezed orange juice. When you pay, you get a pager to let you know when your food is ready. Because it's the summer, expect a little wait, but not terribly long. There's plenty of seating outside if you don't want to sit indoors. There's just a couple of tables near the front door. I'm not the biggest fan of wraps (my girl is), but the Casey was pretty good. The breaded eggplant makes it good. It does come apart pretty easily so be slightly warned. The Princetonian was pretty good. Just keep in mind it's not a hot sub, but the veggies are all fresh. The mushrooms were super good. At $11 for the wrap & sandwich each, that's not a bad deal.
