Im sorry but this is not a 2.5 star bakery. Its probably a 3.5 bakery easily, maybe 3.99. I just bought two small, but large, loafs of rye for $ 6. Their donuts are fresh and delicious. The women who work there always are friendly to me. Please don’t discount this bakery as an option. I wish I had taken a pic of the donuts and bread but they didnt survive long enough. Next time Im in Ill post some pictures.

This place used to be good. Now not so much. Prices keep going up and portions keep getting smaller. Donuts used to be a decent size now they are so small and light. There is nothing to them. Also one person usually working counter no matter how many people in line.

I really wish there was a 3.5. I enjoy coming to this bakery. I know a lot of the negative reviews involve the staff. The old lady that is there can be nasty. I don’t think she realizes it. I just think she’s an old polish lady that has that take it or leave it attitude. The young girl who works there however is incredibly helpful and nice. As for the food, it’s not bad. I’ve never gotten anything there that was bad. It’s also not great however. It’s a little better then average. The key to the place though is the little freezer. Open it up and there are delicious pierogies inside. Get the pizza ones and thank me later!

Bakery has nice selection to offer. Got some polish cream cheese cookies then went to the deli next door it’s called«Polska Chata» was happy I stopped in got a great lunch homemade and everything! Parking is private so that’s real cool. On my way to Amboy and got hungry. This place will not let you down. The place is run by polish women old school a la madre! Love it the way the check you out and are surprised to see a Latino come in . I enjoy quality food, so when I come across it, have to keep integrity and be honest no matter what. That’s what different from my post and remarks. I will always be 100% regarding food wine and cigars. The ultimate trifecta!

This is a nice local bakery. It has a nice array of butter and cream cheese cookies, fresh bread, donuts, pastries and even pierogies. It’s a good, local bakery — sometimes that’s all you need.

I have gone in there a couple of times to purchase bread and babkas for holiday meals. The babkas were ok, but there is a lady who works in there who is just nasty and rude. I also had to tell her 2 or 3 times what type of cookies I wanted, even after pointing and almost having to shout the ones I wanted! The baked goods seem fine, but I don’t know how you can have someone working behind the counter and dealing with people all day who is a poor communicator and obviously does not like people!

So disappointed with the lack of quality! On several occasions — I purchased baked goods that I am convinced had been sitting for several days. I could not even cut the nut horseshoe danish it was so stale! My husband took it back & complained. They gave him an apple turnover on the house. I took it out of the bag & was disgusted! It was so burnt & hard — that too ended up in the garbage! It use to be decent but has gone down hill! I hope they can get their act together — but we are taking a royal bakery break!!!

I DON’T UNDERSTANDHOWANYONECANGIVETHISPLACE A EVENSLIGHTLYPOSITIVEREVIEW… unless they know the owner. This place is a culinary abortion. In fact, culinary is too good of a term to use, the word doesn’t even apply. My grandma, aunt and uncle have lived in South Amboy all their lives. We always go to my grandma’s for anyone’s birthday, and if someone forgets to order a cake, they’ve run to Royal for their ironically named Victory cake. This cake is anything but a victory. NUMEROUSTIMES the cake has been stale and crumbles when you cut into it AND the icing is RANCID. Because my grandmother is a Polish creature of habit and fears change, she has gone back; to her areas outside of the tri-town South Amboy, Sayerville, Matawan area are like pre-Columbus era«world is flat» and filled with savages death traps. I IMPLOREYOU, FORYOURHEALTHANDTHEHAPPINESSOFYOURINTESTINALTRACTDONOTGIVETHISPLACEBUSINESS! Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

I moved out of the area a few years ago, but Royal Bakery was always a bakery of choice for my family. When Daylight Bakery in South Amboy closed it became our first choice for cookies, doughnuts and breads. I have never tried their victory cake, but their kifels are the best. When I was a kid my relatives would make this delightful Eastern European cookie. I however am much too lazy to make them so whenever I am home I always stop to pick up a set. Prices are reasonable and cookies, breads and donuts are awesome.
