    The crumb cake is to die for. It has the perfect balance between a moist cake and surgery crusted topping. My mouth is watering just typing this review! Don't pass that up when you go to Colonial bakery. This place is a must stop on your jersey shore to do list. Whether you're a Benny or a local Colonial bakery will give you a nostalgic taste of the jersey shore. The decor hasn't changed since their opening and neither has the quality of their pastries. All of their pastries taste like a different homemade, family recipe. One of the best things about the barrier island has been its ability to maintain the amount of mom and pop shops, and not sell out too much to commercialization. Colonial bakery fits the theme! Don't forget to also try their Sesame Street cookies and cup cakes, another scrumptious recipe with creamy creamy icing and perfect moist cake!

    Sunflower cake!

    The best bakery around. They make the best jelly doughnuts and crumb cake. Be sure to try their rolls and cinnamon bread too.

    Lots of great baked items to choose from. I had to try the crumb cake, it's a must especially if…read moreyou have tried the other local competitors to see which you like the best. Crumb cake was delish but it has little to no "cake" it was mostly crumb. I also had the banana and strawberry smoothie with oat milk. It was refreshing on a hot summer day. I was in and out if there mid day and mid week in 10 min.

    I ordered a cake for an engagement party, Sofia took my order and wrote my order down WRONG. I…read morewanted it to say congratulations Jaclyn and Dillon a she wrote happy birthday. When I went to pick it up and I saw they made a mistake they tried saying that I SAID happy birthday (why would I say that for an engagment party?) and I have in written emails of what i wanted on the cake. They offered to fix it, without a cake decorator present... and tried to give me this horrible monstrosity of a cake!! I wish they would have told me no cake decorator was present to fix it rather than someone who works behind the counter who isn't qualified to ice it. The workers who helped me, Kendra and Emily, ended up wiping the "happy engagement " with a different butter cream and tried to tell me its the same. You can clearly see they see differnt shades in the photo. The manager only offered half off after they ruined my cake and made me wait an hour only to be given this awful mess.

    Today I had a plain bagel with cream cheese for breakfast here. Initially, I was quite excited to…read moresee that they had a sun-dried tomato cream cheese option on the menu because it sounded SO good and amazing?! Plus, I've never heard of such a thing. However, the worker told me they didn't have it, so I opted for their garlic and herbs cream cheese option, but they didn't have that either. I decided to get just plain cream cheese because of that. I did appreciate the worker's patience! The cream cheese wasn't as good as I wanted it to be- it tasted light and faint but I was looking for a more wholesome, fuller flavor. They were generous with the amount of cream cheese they spread on it, which was great because I normally use a lot! The bagel was tasty!! The outer part of it had a crust-like consistency to it and the inside was soft and thick. It was a decent size and quite filling. The shop was very busy but the line moved pretty quickly. Their ordering system was a little messy, however, but I didn't mind it.

    I have no idea why this place is popular. Perhaps it is the boat outside…read more The bacon, egg, and cheese bagel was disgusting. It was lukewarm, had one highly processed Kraft American cheese slice on it, bacon that was more fat than meat, and a tiny bit of egg. Appetite was off for half a day after I had it. Oh and it was $9. It was fast since they had it already wrapped and sitting on a shelf like fast food. A fast food place would be so much better and less expensive.

    These are the best bagels you will find outside NYC! Great sandwiches awesome breakfast…read moresandwiches! You need to try these bagels !

    I accidentally left my phone on the counter when I visited this bagel shop. At the time, the place…read morewas very slow -- there was only one other customer besides me, and the workers were not busy. We called my phone over 30 times, and no one picked up or made any attempt to return it to its owner. I then called the shop directly, and I was told that they did not have my phone. I tracked it using another device, and the location was clearly showing that it was inside the bagel shop. My husband went back inside and asked about it, and once again they said they didn't have it. Only after he showed them the location tracking and explained that the phone was definitely there, a guy from the back finally came out with my phone. What is most upsetting is that there were very few customers in the shop and the workers were not busy, yet after more than 30 calls, no one answered the phone or seemed to make any effort to return it. We were also told twice that they didn't have it, even though the location clearly showed otherwise. A bagel shop shouldn't be judged only by the quality of its bagels. Customer service, honesty, and how you treat your customers are just as important. Unfortunately, this experience left a very bad impression and completely ruined my opinion of this place. I expected much better and will not be returning.
