    Apple fritter (left) & Wildest dream (right)
    Gwo-Long H.

    It's a cute, fun shop with a small outdoor seatings. It's mainly a takeout coffee donut shop. The attendant was friendly and efficient. We had an apple fritter and a wildest dream. Both were wonderful and delicious.

    Maple glazed donut

    Sweet! The doughnuts are fresh, hot and hit the spot. Donuts are cakey but still light and won't give you a sugar hangover. Lovely ladies staffing the station. Hole in the wall location is not in the nicest area, recommend driving not walking from the boardwalk. Would recommend trying the cinnamon sugar, 5/5. We also had the maple glaze which had a bit of a tangy flavor. Still delicious but not packed with maple, it reads more like vanilla glaze.

    I would drive 3 hours just to get these donuts again. I was in Asbury Park for a tattoo and I figured I should go on a donut adventure. This popped up on Google and looked/sounded great. And it was. Wow! Some of the best donuts ever. And the people working there were really great too! Can't recommend this place enough.

    ASBURY PARK: Purple Glaze Donuts is a shop downtown that serves up freshly made and handcrafted donuts with a huge selection of toppings and they also have vegan and gluten free options, along with coffee. Free doggie treats are available as your dog needs a snack too! Feel free to bring your dog inside to order and there is a small space outside with seating; good thing the donuts are easy to eat on-the-go. Super friendly staff and great food!

    Custom donut

    Having Purple Glaze at our wedding in place of a wedding cake was the best decision!!! We have the most amazing experience at our wedding thanks to Mary and the team at Purple Glaze. We had custom donuts with our name on it made in place of a wedding cake. Our guests LOVED having all the donuts to choose from. We also brought take home boxes so nothing went to waste. This was so much better than cake, easier, and we received so many compliments. The donuts were delivered and we chose to rent stands from Purple Glaze as well. This made it such a worry-free experience for us. Everything also looked so beautiful! To everyone at Purple Glaze, we can't thank you enough. We HIGHLY recommend doing this for a wedding, shower, birthday party etc. the donuts are absolutely delicious and beautiful.

    I hadn't visited Purple Glaze Donuts since before Covid and boy was I overdue. Rich, one of the new owners was so warm and inviting a and gave me an update of the new ownership. It looks like he did a great job with the transition. The donuts are still very good quality and taste amazing and they have a huge selection. We were there the day before Halloween and all the different seasonal varieties were out in full force. Definitely stop by and try some delicious donuts. You'll be happy you did.

    Cute interior

    Love this cute little donut shop!! Staff here are always friendly and personable. They seem to really enjoy their work which is nice. The donut specials are beautifully displayed in the window so it is nearly impossible to simply walk by. Specials are fun and there is something for everyone on the regular menu. Donuts are great too of course! Great small business you must visit!

    Super cute little shop. Manager was welcoming and friendly. Prices were reasonable for gourmet-ish donuts. Outside seating is great for a perfect day. Coffee is help yourself. And the donuts were FABULOUSSSSS! Sooooo fresh. Zero trace of grease. All the ones I got were DELICIOUS! My favorite: The Powdered because sometimes, the classics are classics for a reason! Please try this place. I love it! P.S. I *DID*, however, wish they had a yeast donut somewhere.

    Purple Glaze, Fireworks (vanilla glaze with pop rocks), Sinfully Jelly, Mudslide ( chocolate icing and caramel drizzle), Banana Crème
    Mary K.

    Always a favorite in Asbury. We got three from their regular menu (Purple Glaze, Banana Cream, and Sinfully Jelly), and two specials (Firworks vanilla glaze with pop rocks, and a Mudslide with chocolate icing and caramel drizzle)! The line moves fast so don't let that deter you!

    Loved these! Service was great.

    I had originally bought a cupcake cake from ShopRite that I wasn't too happy with. I came into purple glaze the day of the party and asked if I could get donuts arranged in a 4 for my son's birthday. The staff was soooo nice! They totally worked with me even though I hadn't placed an advance order. I got 12 donuts all different flavors, they made a 4 out of seven donuts and put the rest in a different box. Very happy with them, and so pretty and tasty!!!

    We went to the Bell Works market they have on Wednesdays. It was my first time there and the place was pretty big and very spacious. They had a pretty good selection of donuts there. It was quick to order and the guy was friendly. The donut though was really good. I think my favorite must have been the raspberry crumble. I definitely wanna try the other flavors.

    Assorted minis for a birthday party
    Christina D.

    Rich is the best! These donuts are my husbands favorite and we actually travel about 30 minutes to pick them up for our family dinners and events. Our order is always ready at the pickup time and made fresh. Our extended family in PA asks for us to bring these now when we're traveling to them. The minis are perfect for gatherings. The menu is creative and fun! 5 stars all around, every time.

    Love the donuts here. They are so cute and I love the rotating selection of specials that all have their unique character to them. I personally love gummies and I thought the shark attack donut was a combination of two things that I really enjoy. I'm excited to try new flavors as well! Plus the staff here is very friendly. My only complaint is that this shop is NEVER open when I want a donut. Yes, donuts are a breakfast food, but why can't we get donuts for late night as well furthermore for people that work a 9-5 job, it's hard to come here before the store closes

    Ask the Community - Purple Glaze Donuts

    Are these doughnuts raised or cake?

    Mostly Cake! But they have yeast raised specials too

    Are the filled donuts actually filled or is the filling just on top of the donut because that's what it looks like in the pictures?

    On top. But it is a cake-like donut in the first place so "filling on top" works. Give it a try I doubt you'll regret it.

For those not familiar with Rook, they have different flavors on rotation, so you can always try something new!

No matter which location I'm at, the service is always excellent and due to their premeasured coffee formulation, They have it down to a science. I will always get a consistent cup of coffee. Upon entering, you are greeted with a smile and if you're stuck in choosing, the friendly employees can make some excellent suggestions based on what your taste buds are into. People place their order either in person or using Rooks' app. While they don't have chairs and tables for you to sit and sip, it's still a very calm and chill place as you wait for your drink to be prepared. A quick shout-out to all the employees who work there. I am gobsmacked at their talented artistry, both in making a delicious cup of coffee and in their drawings on the cups which can be found on the side.

We were seated right away on a Thursday afternoon on their front sidewalk patio. I ended up ordering the Green Machine bowl (normally vegan and gluten free) but added grilled chicken to it. It was delicious! A combo of roasted broccoli, warm lentils, parsley pesto, avocado, and marinated kale. Everything was cooked perfectly, and while this is basically something I make on rotation at home, I loved the pesto sauce and will definitely be trying to replicate that on my own. Perfect lunch that left my full and not even a little sluggish. They do have a few drinks on the menu like kombucha, cold brew, and sodas, but if you are looking for anything more than that in the coffee arena, you'll need to pop by a neighboring cafe afterwards. Service was friendly but not too fast. It was a busy day and we were in no rush, so we didn't mind. All in all, a great place for a delicious brunch.

(It's more dire over in Ocean Grove, at least Asbury has the option of longer walks for non-touristy spots). The acclaimed cacio e pepe scrambled eggs is a solid pick, but based on a few bites I think the spring benny may have a higher BPM. Credit is due for beverage innovation; I enjoyed the black and hibiscus tea with pineapple nectar.
