Customer Reviews

Don't let the looks deceive you. It might look like a regular donut shop but it is NOT. The donuts here are awesome. They are nice an fluffy, taste amazing, super messy, and big and I mean BIG. The maple / chocolate bars are at least 12 inches long. This is a must go to place.

Really tasty doughnuts and very nice staff.

Coffee is watery and the buttermilk biscuit doesn't taste like buttermilk at all - Actually it has no flavor. All the supplies sitting out on the tables. They don't smile at you and they don't say thank you to you. They just say, "Next !"

At a certain point in my life I had little money, but those chocolate bow ties?, Billy would kindly accept the money I had even though sometimes it wasn?t enough. I?ve been coming here for over a decade and out of all the donut shops I have never had a donut as good as theirs.

When I get up super early. I like to grab myself a bowtie. They're super delicious ??

Amazing donuts. Glazed donuts were SUUUPER puffy and delicious. Loved it.

They have the best donuts I have ever had. Not just donuts but everything is amazing. Their croissants are delicious as well. If you can choose Go for a twist and a croissant. You can't go wrong! I usually go in 2-3 times a week.

Idk how I?ve lived in Orland for 3 years and never noticed this place! I went in the other day and was short $2 and the owner was so kind and told me not to even worry about it and hoped I enjoyed them.

Their donuts are among the top five I've had anywhere. They have figured out how to make each type of donut taste delicious with the perfect balance of crunch and soft on the inside. I always come here each time I visit Orland.

Went there this morning, not from orland but travel here twice a week...the doughnuts were actually warm this morning. Soo delicious..ill keep coming back and leaving a tip whenever I can.

Great fresh donut. But selection is usually sold out early in the morning.

This place is amazing. So thankful I chose this place. Coffee excellent apple fritter is top notch

Best donuts for miles. We love the authentic flavor. Good prices, refreshing coffee and refreshment case. The place is family owned and they come out and talk to the kids.

BEST DONUTS EVER. They beat other donuts places, by far. Krispy Kreme is NOTHING compared to Billy and Emily?s. Please please please, if you are in Orland...go to this store!!! The chocolate bow ties are the best, and the breakfast sandwiches can start your day completely perfect. Most definitely 5/5 stars!!!

Only because it?s the only donut shop there is in town & my kids like every kid love donuts I go there, but the lady that usually works there is always very rude to the customer. If I could give it zero stars I most definitely would

Who doesn't love donuts?!?! This is a great shop, the only downside is that they close after they sell out for the day. So, get there early or you might not get any!

Best donuts anywhere! Good coffee pleasant service. A must stop every time we go north.

This place is awesome.they always have the best attitude and really friendly. I would really recommend this place. Sort from the doughnuts and treats are really tasty and yummy delicious. Please go visit them

Used to go to this donut shop 20 Years ago on my way to school every day and to visit after 10 Years and still just as great now as I can remember then! Thanks folks! Orland appreciates you!

Excellent place to stop for a break. I highly recommend their ham and cheese croissant. I recommend getting too. This way you can share with somebody

Awful service, poor selection. The person behind the counter acted like I was wasting their time while my kids tried to choose between the 4 types of donuts they had

Very nice people, good options like my favorite ham and cheese croissant! Good doughnuts too!

Best donuts in town! You don't have to wait in line very long even if there is a long line.
