Customer Reviews

So as a donut place you can?t fill donuts with the marshmallow fluff? I ask for a donut to be filled with marshmallow fluff and she goes ?we can?t do that?. Oh I?m sry are you guys out of it? ?No we can only fill a chocolate or maple and NOTHING ELSE.? Dozen of donut options but I HAVE to be stuck with nasty maple or chocolate? What company policy is this I though you guys where a DONUT STORE. No the lazy rude cashier just didn?t want to do her job and fill donuts AT THE DONUT STORE SHE WORKS AT!??! Walmart

The gal the makes the coffee, she's fabulous and makes them great everytime. Only place to get amazing donuts in Riverton! Parking not the best but highly recommended to go.

Great local option for donuts, ice cream, and other treats. I know most people go through the drive thru or just do carry out, but they do have a small dine in area. I've taken my kids a couple of times and they've enjoyed it. The only complaint I have is their shakes could be better.

Great donuts! Michaela was very helpful in recommending the donuts. The glazed sold out pretty quickly. She recommended the maple one and it was amazing. 5/5! Thank you for making our short trip in Riverton memorable.

Love the folks that run this place. We get cocoa here often during the winter months. Kids love it. It's definitely healthier than your walmart donuts. Just saying ?????. Would be awesome if they did a small batch of gluten-free donuts now and then.

The lady who worked the registry yesterday afternoon was super friendly and helpful. The ice cream was pretty good and they had lots of flavors to choose from. We didn't get to try the donuts since it was so late in the afternoon, there weren't too many to choose from. But we'll definitely be back!

Great little place to grab a coffee and a quick bite. Prices were amazingly low for the quality of food and drink. The coffees amazing taste coupled with the exquisite donuts made my morning great. 10/10, would come again and again.

Donuts not near as good as first owners. We got raspberry roses that were definitely not worth the price they were about the size of a silver dollar. We will probably go to smiths from now on at least you get what you pay for and friendly service something we did not get here which is way to bad since used to be the best in town :(

Not your average small-town donut shop! Outstanding drinks and treats. If you want something savory, try the kolache. It might look like a pig-in-a-blanket, but it taste like an old-world treat from Baveria.

best donuts in town. fair prices, fast service and they have a drive through. they also have really good hand dipped ice cream and a variety of coffee drinks. not much parking, and sometimes hard to get into and out of though.

A good selection of specialty ice creams like honey sunflower(verygood), doughnuts, shaved ice i think I saw specially coffee also, pretty good. It's a little small but pretty handy just off the 26 hwy on main

Absolutely wonderful find. Great service, great selection, phenomenal donuts. Fill your belly with fresh donuts and hot coffee. Worth a stop every time!

Not the best dough nuts I've ever had, old, and cold. NO Thank you. Service was good but the price was high. Probably not again for me. 12.21.20

The Italian sodas aren't really Italian Sodas. They mix the flavors with 7up, not soda water, causing the flavor to be really off. I couldn't even taste the actual flavored syrup even though she put five pumps in a 16oz cup!

They don?t have an escalator. Go here if you want decent donuts for an insanely high price. It?s decent, but nothing to write home about. The worst thing about prison was the dementors.

The individual working at the drive thru window was very unprofessional. She walked away while we were trying to give her our order. She was not very helpful when trying to decide what to order, there should at least be a menu at the window.

Still the best donuts money can buy. Must come here early or they'll be all gone. Quite delish!!

White chocolate and raspberry cappuccino is so scrumdiddlyomsous! A little pricey but I'm a single mom... So yeah. They have lunch cards too!

Have you ever had a bad doughnut ?? Well you won?t find one here.

I?m very disappointed. I have loved them since I was a kid. But they are not the same. Too much has changed in the ownership and it has gone down hill in making donuts and selling

They make their own ice cream right there and their own donuts right there and it's very good and very friendly and it's local.

Scrumptious donuts and wonderful service~ Always!

Donuts were great, staff was friendly and patient with my kids.

Very large variety of donuts, coffees, and homemade icecreams and stuff!

Great donuts with super fast and friendly service, what more could you ask for!

Donuts and ice cream are AMAZING here. Friendly staff. Couldn't ask for more!

They have some of the best donuts in town

Since a certain lady was fired, the service and quality has plummeted. The whole ambiance has changed and nothing is the quality it used to be.

Customer service is very kind and patient and warming... great place kids loved it

Clerk's are particular about who they greet. Not good. Everyone should be greeted just as equally.
