Usually this is my go to but not a great day today. I ordered at 12 for a pickup PEC on Rye. I got a notification at 12:04 that it was ready. Ok weird it said 15 min but whatever I live right up the road. Get home and it’s really cold. Pork roll was barely cooked and the cheese wasn’t even melted. It was inedible. I had to throw out. It made me think that maybe they made a sandwich for someone else that didn’t pick up and decided to give it to me? I can’t confirm that but no way was that cooked when ordered. I gave 3 stars only because it’s usually good and didn’t wanna give 1 star off one bad experience. Just sucks I didn’t even eat any of it.

About and visit notes
Joe's Bagel and Grill has established itself as a must-visit destination for anyone in the Manasquan area of New Jersey looking for an authentic, high-quality bagel and breakfast experience. More than just a simple bagel shop, this location serves as a full-service breakfast restaurant, a cozy coffee shop, and a robust sandwich shop, seamlessly blending the Jersey Shore's relaxed vibe with a commitment to fresh, flavorful food. For locals and visitors alike, Joe’s has become synonymous with starting the day right—or grabbing a satisfying lunch on the go. Its diverse menu ensures that whether you're craving a classic New Jersey pork roll, egg, and cheese or an innovative, gourmet wrap, your taste buds will be satisfied.
The foundation of Joe's Bagel and Grill’s reputation is, of course, the bagel itself. New Jersey residents know that an authentic bagel is hand-rolled and boiled before being baked, resulting in that perfectly crisp crust and chewy interior. At Joe’s, this tradition is honored, providing the base for everything from a simple Bagel with Butter ($2.75) to the luxurious Bagel with Nova Lox & Cream Cheese ($13.00). Beyond bagels, the menu expands to encompass a true grill experience, offering a comprehensive selection of breakfast platters, omelets, and lunch fare that elevates it beyond the competition.
The breakfast menu is an extensive list of classics and unique specialties designed to power your day. For those who prefer a straightforward start, you can find simple yet satisfying options like a Two Eggs Breakfast Sandwich ($5.75) or an Egg Platter with two eggs any style ($8.00). However, it is the creative, oversized specialties that truly draw a crowd. Items like the massive Joe's Tidal Wave ($12.50), the flavorful Tex-Mex Burrito ($9.75) with spicy chorizo and pico de gallo, and the body-conscious Mr. Protein ($9.60) wrap show a dedication to variety and catering to all diets. Even the omelet section is extensive, ranging from a basic Cheese Omelet ($8.00) to more complex choices like the Greek Omelet ($11.00) or the Egg Whites, Tomatoes & Avocado Omelet ($11.95).
When lunchtime rolls around, Joe's Bagel and Grill transitions smoothly, offering a wide array of deli sandwiches, heroes, burgers, and wraps. Their dedication to a comprehensive menu means customers don't need to go elsewhere for a midday meal. The specialty sandwiches offer unique, gourmet combinations, and the extensive selection of Paninis—including the Italiano Panini ($10.95) and the Cuban Panini ($10.95)—ensures a hot and satisfying meal. For those with a bigger appetite, the "Fat Sandwiches," such as The Hangover ($14.00) or The Fat Soprano ($14.00), are infamous for their size and delicious, over-the-top fillings.
Joe's commitment to quality coffee and specialty drinks also earns it a spot as a local coffee shop. The "Joe’s Joe" coffee is a reliable staple, and for the iced coffee aficionado, the selection of Smoothies provides a lighter, refreshing option. The smoothie menu includes healthy and fun options like The Tropics ($7.95) and the Green Monster ($7.95), perfect for a post-workout treat or a healthy meal replacement.
Beyond the daily service, Joe's Bagel and Grill is a fantastic resource for New Jersey residents and businesses seeking catering services. Their professional catering menu covers everything from small office meetings to large social gatherings, specializing in both breakfast and lunch options to cover any time of day. This catering capability is a significant draw, making it a dependable choice for hosts in Monmouth and Ocean County looking to impress guests with quality food.
The catering packages are designed for convenience and variety. Breakfast options include the classic Continental ($8.95 per person) featuring bagels and muffins, to the hearty Morning Star ($13.95 per person), which includes scrambled eggs, French toast, meats, and breakfast potatoes. For larger groups, they offer the Nosh ($17.95 per person) which is a deluxe bagel and lox platter. Lunch catering options are equally robust, with various Cold Lunch packages starting at $12.95 per person, Cold Cut Platters ($14.95 per person), and impressive Party Subs (starting at $21.95 per foot). Whether you need a simple Box of Joe ($21.95) for a morning meeting or a full-service Gourmet Lunch ($15.95 per person) with gourmet sandwiches and side salads, Joe’s has a solution to fit your event needs.

Had the Tex-Mex Breakfast Burrito at Joe’s Grill and Deli this morning—thing was a beast. Big portion, didn’t cheap out. The chorizo had that perfect kick without being greasy, and the pico was actually fresh—not that sad stuff some places throw on. Whole thing, drink included, ran me about $14 with tip. Honestly? Worth every penny. Solid spot if you’re hungry and want real flavor.
Apr 15 · Christy HorakhI have been a customer of Joes Bagel since I moved to Tom’s River and discovered them by accident 5 years ago.The Wall location staff are super troopers and they better be getting paid what they deserve.Between dealing with unimaginable customers, like a group of old women constantly bothering and belittling the staff or a group of moms and they’re screaming, uncontrollable kids- the staff at the wall location put on a brave face and greet each customer with a smile and a happy attitude.I highly highly recommend joes bagels to anyone that is looking for a welcoming staff that makes your day better.I would recommend to take your food to go so you can fully enjoy your food and not get disturbed by customers who have no common decency.
Sep 6 · Linda LoFaroFood tasted great. Bagel was great quality and had good flavor. Their Breakfast Quesadilla was also very good. Service was great and the price is very fair.
Dec 17 · Darrien DeFedericoThe food is good, but avocado was brown so that’s a bit concerning. If you don’t have fresh avocado, just say you ran out. On top of that, the girls at the counter could not be any less helpful. I ordered an iced coffee with caramel over the phone, and when I get there they tell me they don’t have caramel. Then they just handed me a cup so I can make it myself. I understand it’s not a coffee shop, but some help when you’re an employee is nice. I gave 2 stars instead of 1 bc the food is usually good, but I wish I could get my tip back.
