Customer Reviews

Tasty kolaches. Decent donuts. The people who own it/work there seem nice. I was a bit surprised with how expensive it was. Bought 6 kolaches and a dozen donuts for about $32. The prices have definitely gone up quite a bit since the last menu photo was posted on here.

Love it!! Customer service at its best!!! The owners are always as friendly as they can be.. as soon as you walk in that door they already know who you are. I highly recommend this place it's the best donut shop in Jacksonville!! At least here they DON'T serve you old kolaches with hair or hard cold kalaches like the other donuts shops in town ... THIS is the number 1shop I will go too!!

Stopped by this donut shop while camping and had some delicious kolache?s and apple fritters for breakfast.

The absolute best donuts I have had in years inexpensive but tasty. Love this place. Nice folks and amazing doughnuts.

I am going to consider myself a professional donut taster. Ha ha. Their donuts are okay. But it does not deserve five stars. The chocolate icing taste funny. But the donut still fresh.glazed are much better than the chocolate to me. I do reviews on donut shops and other restaurants to remind me where I have been so I can return. Four stars for great customer service. Food only it would have gotten three.

Great price, very friendly staff, clean places. Highly recommended

Best donut shop in town. Food is fresh and the staff are always smiling.

Overcharging their customers. They have incorrect prices on their price list. They charged two dollars more than the actual listed price.
