Yelp recently analyzed customer reviews to determine the top donut shop in the Garden State. While we’re not typically Yelpers, we were undoubtedly curious about which shop took the crown. The review site used insights to help reveal which spot stands above the rest.
The winner? None other than Uncle Dood’s in Toms River. It’s nice to see a Jersey staple and its owner, Dominic Livolsi, receive the recognition. At Uncle Dood’s, every donut is made fresh. Each donut is fried, iced, and topped on the spot with seasonal and monthly flavor choices.
This praise is well-earned. Uncle Dood’s isn’t just another donut shop; it’s a place where creativity meets incredible flavor, and the welcoming staff makes every visit even sweeter. Not only has it been named the best donut spot in New Jersey, but it has also earned a place among the best donut spots in the U.S. in 2023. With the weather warming up, make that stop in Tom’s River on your way to the Shore Points. You’ll be glad you did.
