Seed to Sprout Bakery — Restaurant in Ocean Township

I have great experiences here for the most part. The menu is great and the food is delicious. I typically call ahead to place orders so that I can pick up the food and depart quickly. My last visit, though, was not as satisfying as usual. I called ahead to have a sandwich prepared and I arrived at the bakery to be told it hadn’t been made. I wasn’t bothered much and was willing to wait. I told the woman at the register what my order was and she rang me up. After she had already taken my money, she informed me that the ingredients I wanted in my order were not available. Instead of giving me a refund, she made the sandwich on a bagel that I disliked because it was the only one left. People call ahead in the first place to insure that their orders are correctly made and available for pickup upon arrival. I understand that this location has newer employees and that they are still in the training process, but I was upset that nobody behind the counter offered to give my money back ($6.50 for a bagel sandwich) when my order couldn’t be completed correctly. One in food service should check to see what is available before orders are fulfilled. As a former food service employee, I can say that my manager would have been livid with me if I made a mistake and didn’t offer a refund. I will still continue to visit this location because I love it so much, but I’m sure that many other people I know would have stopped giving their business after that experience. Seed To Sprout is a hidden gem with a wonderful atmosphere and excellent food selection. However, I will likely not place an order over the phone again. I gave three stars because of the pricing and confusion of the staff that I witnessed during my prior visit and one before. Otherwise, the place...

Highly recommend this vegan bakery! Everything was delicious and the cake was exactly what we wanted! There was a small mix up with the cakes and another customer was accidentally given our cake today. However, while we waited for the customer to drop off our cake at the bakery, the women who stayed after closing today was very sweet and gave us coffee and scones to apologize for the mixup while we waited. That was very sweet and we really appreciate it! We will definitely be ordering again...

As a vegan, one of the things you miss out on is bagel sandwiches. But seed to sprout bakery has filled that void. Their bagels are delicious and the sandwich options will make your vegan bagel sandwich dreams come true. I had the BLT sandwich and my husband ordered a tofu scramble and cheese bagel. Both were amazing. It's a cute little location with select seating. They also have coffee and tea and some other breakfast options like frittatas, baked goods, and more. It's a new...
