Del-Ponte’s in Bradley Beach is a Great Stop at the Jersey Shore for Dinner and Dessert

BRADLEY BEACH, NJ – What’s better than a nicely crafted coal-fired pizza at a picturesque restaurant in a quaint downtown area of the Jersey Shore? A full-service bakery that is attached next door.

That’s what you get at Del-Ponte’s Coal Fired Pizza and adjacent bakery in Bradley Beach, which could arguably be the pizza capital of the Jersey Shore with Vic’s just a few blocks south.

The main downtown area of Bradley Beach is a dining paradise at the Jersey Shore with small mom-and-pop Jersey Shore restaurants, but amongst the crowd, Del-Ponte’s sticks out.

The pizza at Del-Pontes is among the best rated at the Jersey Shore, but it doesn’t stop there, all of their dishes are fantastic. While it’s somewhat small inside, they offer a great outdoor porch seating area as a perfect way to end your day here at the Jersey Shore.

It doesn’t end there. Dessert is just one door away. Next door, you’ll find Del-Ponte’s Bakery, a full-service bakery that is always stocked with delicious delectables including homemade bread, pastries, cupcakes, cakes, cookies, and the largest assortment of biscotti and Italian cookies you’ll see at the Jersey Shore.

Next time, you’re in the area, check out Del-Ponte restaurant and bakery.
