Customer Reviews

Everything is so fresh and the croissant breakfast sandwich is delicious especially the ham and cheese. My favorite donut is the chocolate iced old fashioned donut. The staff is so nice and helpful and the coffee ? super. Our favorite donut place.

It's actually a good donut shop and if you go there often enough the owner will start to remember you and your order. That is always good to have, and she's super sweet and understanding when I come in on a bike or scooter. Great food, an awesome lady, and close to home ??

Excellent service and the breakfast sandwiches are really good

Love this place!??????????Everything in the store is delicious, the owner is very friendly and the prices are affordable!

Great customer service. They even gave me a couple extra donuts. The Old Fashioned Donut had a nice glaze outside and muffin texture inside. The Vietnamese Coffee is authentic with a creamy, sweet, and chicory flavor. It's robust and strong. This is how my family makes it at home. Highly recommend.

Great customers service. The owner is very generous, we are always given a few extra donuts with our purchase.

Great service and she was very friendly ???? Amazing Vietnamese iced coffee, love the apple fritters and donut holes

I drive by her shop at least twice a day. I finally stopped!! She's very kind, cheerful and helpful. I picked up 3of my favorites and BONUS she slipped in 2 more donuts. What a pleasant and tasty surprise!! I'll be returning soon. ??????

This is the best donut and kolache place on this side of town. Everything is fresh and anything made with a croissant is to die for...seriously. What makes this place even better is you?re always greeted with such sweet smiles from the owner (Dawn I assume). You can tell she has her heart and soul in this shop! Enjoy!

The sausage roll thing is ?? af! The blueberry glaze & chocolate bars are ??! The prices are way too reasonable for the quality, like what is this 1999?! How do they stay in business?! But that wouldn't be enough for me to leave a review usually. It was the staff that made me leave this review. Such an incredibly kind woman! If you're in the mood for donuts then swing by and support this low-key, local family business!

Wonderful homemade donuts and kolaches. Definitely try out the crossiant kolache. Definitely a different take on a kolache. Also their Vietnamese coffee is really great. If you like your coffee strong this is the coffee to get. Overall with friendly staff and great breakfast foods this is a place worth coming back to time after time.

I always know when I walk in that the staff here will be so kind and helpful. Plus, they really make you feel at home and comfortable. All of their food is good and fresh; from donuts to kolaches. I highly recommend you check them out.

I love this little shop! The lady who works here is always smiling and always friendly. They have better options than a Shipley's or Dunkin. My son and I look forward to coming here either before or after church. I highly recommend you try it out. And the prices are very reasonable.

Great donuts, kolaches and the apple fritters are the absolute best I've had. I will definitely be back! ??
