Best little bakery out there! Don't waste your time at Dunkin' Donuts when you can have homemade donuts and pastries at the Waretown bakery.

We had to order a last minute cake and they were fantastic about it. The cake was chocolate cake with white buttercream. It tasted like a giant version of the freshest devil dog you could imagine. We also had a dozen vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting. It was just homemade deliciousness. Every single person commented on how good the cake was and the pricing was beyond reasonable. I was honestly super surprised how inexpensive everything was. I highly recommend them. read more

These weren't the greatest donuts or coffee I've ever had, but what really tipped the scales for me was the price and most importantly customer service. I wandered in here on the 4th of July probably around 7am-ish after misreading Google Maps and taking an ill-advised walk from our Airbnb down a solid chunk of Route 9. (There was a pedestrian path on the other side of the road that looked very peaceful in comparison and I just didn't feel like crossing the highway to get on it - 100% on me). As soon as I saw the crowded parking lot, I knew this was probably the only mom and pop game in town - there's a Dunkin nearby at least - and that this was a locals place through and through. The interior is small, and it felt probably even smaller because it was packed with locals, all of whom were super nice to me. The door was held for me both going in and out, and milk was offered/handed to me for my coffee by a fellow customer. Any mild issues I had in moving around the room were negated by the hospitality. The back wall of the room and side counters are dominated by pastries, and there's a coffee station to the left of the entrance that's similar to what you'd find at a gas station convenience store - low maintenance for sure but gets the job done. The display of donuts behind the register caught my eye before anything else, so I opted for two of those - chocolate frosted and strawberry frosted. There were a few edgier flavors including a 4th of July themed blue one but I don't typically mess around with the classics. They were pretty tasty - decent size for sure, maybe a little cakier than I typically prefer, but the dough was on the airy side and I liked that they didn't skimp on the frosting. I grabbed an additional coffee for one of my top-tier chums (two of whom came to rescue me from a return walk down Route 9), and the total - two coffees and two donuts - came to a little over $5. We were all delightfully flabbergasted. That typically gets you maybe a caffeinated beverage closer to the city. Worth a stop for sure if you're in the area. In the low-key land of strip malls between Seaside and AC, I'd much rather go to a little standalone shop like this, as would my wallet. read more

Waretown Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Waretown, New Jersey

I've gotten stuff from Waretown Bakery many times in person. Decent prices for some of my favorite baked goods. But the last two times I ordered online for DoorDash delivery, I was never notified via text (or a call) that several items I wanted were out of stock, like 1/2 my order! Sending an email doesn't cut it... If you're texting me about the order being received, delivery times, and that the order is "On its way", you can text me about sold out items *Before* you fill my order. I would have chosen other items to replace them. Instead, I ended up with not enough to feed every guest the first time, or my family today, when it happened again -- and a refund that will take 3-5 days to show up on my CC. This needs to be corrected. read more

We just love the doughnuts! Fresh and delicious. This place never disappoints! Parking at peak times is a bit crazy but it is worth it no w the less! read more

A little hidden gem bakery right along Route 9. The staff is always so friendly no matter how busy they are, and the donuts are out of this WORLD! Honestly, everything is delicious but the donuts really stand out. Make sure to go early, they tend to sell out quick! If you're passing by looking for something quick, they do $1.25 donuts and $1.25 coffee. Highly recommend! read more

Rude and unfriendly owners and help. I ordered a cake that was placed in a huge box. I asked for help to get it to the car and was turned down . 'We are too busy and our policy is that once a cake leaves our bakery it's not our responsibility'. Cake was only fair , never returning. Parking lot is a mess , needs repaving read more

Do you love jelly donuts like me ?? Well, look no further because this jelly donut is worth driving for! We were staying at an AirBNB locally for Thanksgiving and looking for a place to get a nice Thanksgiving pie or cake. Well, let it be known that Yelp helped us find the place and we found the jackpot. This small, unassuming bakery was exactly what we were looking for. Just make sure if you're getting a holiday cake or pie, the lines will be long but the wait will be worth it. You'll need to order in advance. Now back to the JELLY DONUT! As other fellow Yelpers reviewed, they kept talking up the jelly donuts. So thank you Yelpers! You were right again. It's just jelly donut perfection. See all that jelly in the photo? Make sure to have napkins on hand because you're gonna need 'em! That jelly just explodes at every bite. The donut itself is a perfect texture and every bite is magical. I was told by my hubby that the Bavarian creme is to die for. He couldn't decide, so he had both the vanilla and the chocolate. So make the trip to check out The Waretown Bakery, you won't be disappointed. read more

The bakery, the bakery the bakery!!!!!! polite, understanding, kind words. Reasonable baked goods. Price. What can I say? It's a old funky building pink in color. Five stars?

I knew it would make my daughter so happy because when she was a little girl she always had a raggedy ann cake for her birthday. She turned 50 this year so you can imagine her surprise when she opened the box. It was not only beautiful but so delicious. Waretown did an outstanding job.
