Best Donuts, Danish, fritters, you name it, and they make it the best. Always fresh, always mouth-watering goodness in every bite. They are the best in Florida. Krispy kreme and dunkin' donuts don't have Jack on Fresh Start Donuts. They should call and get some notes on how its done. ??
I love this place! I believe they have some of the best donuts around, they are always friendly and the donuts are always fresh. My only complaint is you can't just eat one!
You guys are AMAZING! My dad stopped this morning to grab some of our favorites before coming to my home. When he got there my favorite cherry fritter was out so they made one for me! How wonderful is that!?! I know you all are so busy, understandably so might I add. To take the extra time to make someones day is what makes a business an extra wonderful one! Thank you for being such awesome people and giving our community a special place to visit regularly. I think you are a great group of people ??
Delicious doesn't even cut it! We have been in the area for over a decade and only just discovered this wonderful place! The donuts are so fresh and taste amazing! Brayden turned an amazing glazed donut into a maple bacon one for me. Mouthwatering donut if you have never tried! My husband has been in a few times coming home with different donuts and bagels, everytime great! Thank you for the amazing breakfasts!
I come from the best bakeries in New Jersey but this one beats them all. The most delicious doughnuts and bagels. I love the taste. So nice and fresh.
They recently updated their shop and they have wonderful people working here and really great fresh donuts! Breakfast sandwiches are really yummy too. Worth the uncharged compared to dunkin and supporting local business ??
Stopped in on a whim and was blown away! The donuts were perfectly soft and not overly sweet. You can tell they?re made fresh. Great variety and super friendly service. I?ll definitely be coming back.
I've been living here for 4 years, and this is the first time I've stopped by. I'm kicking myself for not trying them out earlier! I love their donuts. My favorite is the Boston. Definitely recommend trying their breakfast sandwiches. Hits the spot every single time ????. Staff is always friendly, too.
Kind customer service, the inside has been remodeled and looks AMAZING, and especially great food! I absolutely love their donuts, and will be back to try the rest of the menu including the breakfast burritos (yum!). An amazing place to kickstart your day ?? P.S. Make sure to come in early!!! Doughnuts go fast
Came here for the first time ever today! My little sister recommended this place and it did not disappoint. Solid variety of specialty donuts, muffins (I'm coming back for you pistachio muffin!! Lol), and breakfast food items. The cashier was super sweet too. The croissant breakfast sandwich? Probably my favorite so far. Definitely plan to make this a stop on the way whenever I'm in the area. The place was packed in the morning which serves as a testament to how much the community loves this spot. Shout out
Phenomenal! Donuts are always fresh, bagels are delicious as a bacon, egg, cheese breakfast sandwich. I've recently fallen in love with the Frozen caramel coffee drink. Staff is always so nice ?? The only thing I would hope for is that they stayed open later, closing at 2pm, they only bake enough for the day so it's slim pickings after 12. I'd definitely double back if they explored a lunch menu. But, you can't fix perfect and THIS PLACE is top quality! Love you ladies!
The go to for donuts!! We always order from here and the donuts are gone before I can grab a picture. Ordered half dozen today and only managed to photo three. Soo good. We have had their lunch items as well. Coffee is good too. I wanted to add on to this. We got the giant donut for my boys birthday! Talk about memorable.
This cute donuts shop has amazing homemade donuts, muffins, bagels and even soup! ?? This is one of our favorite places to stop for breakfast. The families favorite is the jalape?o bagels. The service is always great and fast even with a line out the door. You do have to get their early or they sell out fast. This is must visit place for Citrus County!
We had such an awesome experience for our son?s 3rd birthday! I called on Monday to see if the could do a Donut Cake and have it look like a Minion. Without hesitation, she said of course! Our son absolutely loved it. We loved the way it looked and it was delicious! Thank you guys for such a great experience. You made our little man?s day!
First off let me start off I had such high hopes & after reading great reviews was excited to check this donut shop out! Wasn't really greeted...just a what can I get for ya. I explained It was my 1st time here. Not one recommendation or anything. As I looked around, didn't see prices listed, soo many flavors were OUT that I was hoping for. So that was a let down right off the bat, especially 3 that my family were dying to try. Purchased a dozen glazed, 2 apple fritters, 2 coffee rolls & a sausage egg crois
The staff were busy but friendly. I asked for a lemon filled donut but ended up with an apple cinnamon instead (donuts were in the wrong areas). The cherry turnovers were pretty good and the bagel sandwiches were excellent.
Why buy a dozen donuts when you can deliver a giant show stopper?! This monster cost about $12 and needs a 24 hour preorder. It's fluffy, glazed and frosted. This donut has welcomed it's place in our family as a birthday tradition. Everyone gets some and we still can't finish it. Go get yours!
Always good food and service here. The donuts are amazing. Super tastey and just made right.
They have good donuts however after pointing to and telling the woman working behind the counter 2 times that I wanted 2 glazed chocolate cake donuts I was disappointed to discover when I opened the box she gave me 2 glazed raised donuts with chocolate icing, I guess I should have observed her closer while she was putting the donuts in the box SMH. When I got home I called to complain & the woman on the phone had a "don't care" attitude with me so I will not be getting donuts there again.
This place is a fun time. If you want good doughnuts, coffee, or breakfast. They may do lunch, though I'm not fully sure. I know they close earlier in the day and if you want first pick of all the awesome doughnuts they make you wanna get there early before they are gone. They have lots of fun creative donuts. That are big and delicious. Their cinnamon rolls are huge. The frozen coffee is good though a bit sweet early in the morning with the big sweet doughnut. Overall I've liked what I've gotten to try fro
Great little donut shop. They have delicious donuts and also offer breakfast and lunch sandwiches. They have a couple rocking chairs for customers to enjoy their coffee and donuts outside.
This place is wonderful! I have only ever bought donuts, cinnamon rolls, and the fitters here, but these are the best pastries! Our family loves this little cafe, and the staff are so friendly! Highly recommend to anyone looking for delicious food without breaking the bank ????
We just had our first visit at Fresh start Donuts and we weren't disappointed. When you first walk in you get this amazing aroma from all of the amazing donuts and other breakfast pastries. We got there around 6AM so the selection of donuts was broad and plentiful. We were greeted right away by a very nice lady wearing a mets hat, I stated it was our first time there and we needed a minute to look over the options, she gave us a free glazed donuts while she explained the options and how everything is mad
We've been looking for a donut place that is fresh and not frozen and shipped in Lake Duncan. The coffee is great and this is our donut place
Called last week to make a custom order for my son to take to school for his birthday this week!! It was a bit complicated bc of all the different sprinkle colors he wanted, but they didn?t question it! Thanks again! Updated review - They didn?t do sprinkles, but just frosting instead - still a hit!
Go here all the time when visiting. It is a must stop for me. Always fresh , clean, and wonderful service. Way better than DD
Impeccable service. Delicious doughnuts. I order 4 dozen doughnuts and 2 dozen bagels. I even bought chicken salad for the high protein lovers. Everything was scrumptious!! Five stars in my book.
Does anyone make FRESH, FRIED donuts anymore, besides Krispy Kreme? If you've had REAL donuts, you know the baked mess is no different than buying from Walmart. Not grease Fried? NOT a donut.
Best donuts ever, anywhere. Get there early, as others do for the best selection.
Best doughnuts I've had in a very long time. Great flavor, made with quality ingredients. My family had a doughnut shop and their doughnuts remind me of those days. Delicious!
Very cool place. Friendly staff, and delicious food. Went in to check it out, got a delicious blueberry muffin and to me surprise, it came with a free glazed donut because it was my first time there. I dig that. Keep up the great work.
Donuts are soooo good! I am so glad I don't go by often they would be very hard to resist. Their breakfast sandwiches are very good and best is you can get them on one of the amazing bagels. My favorite is the Jalapeno Asiago!!
Worst donut shop in Florida . Terrible inventory control out of donuts by 9am. Best thing this business can do is sell to someone that can run it like a business or close it .
We moved from up North New York in 1996. And when I went out to the store to meet people I found this awesome bagel shop that I never knew existed. My mom and I've been going there ever since. My dad passed away and I was his favorite place to go. They also serve really good soup and sandwiches. I believe that is when we met fresh start donuts I think they had another name I can't remember. But Sheila is awesome I've known her for 27 years now and she's a lovely girl and a hard-working owner. I love the sta
Great staff very fun. Great donuts. Great prices always love coming here early in the morning to get donuts for the family.
Staff and donuts are amazing! A very large variety. It's a very popular place and small, so people tend to crowd on top if each other. We didn't try the coffee but from what we saw and smelt it seemed heavenly.
I discovered this place after moving to the area, and I don't ever want to move far away from it! We haven't had all their donuts yet, but the ones we had were great! They also offer some breakfast sandwiches on bagels and whatnot. The maple and white cream donuts are by far, my favorite. You definitely need to get there early, because they usually go fast!
Always a line, but they are swift so the wait was minutes. They always deliver on freshness!
OMG! Amazing business and amazing people who work behind the counter. I am in awe at the aromatic smells coming from all the wonderful goodies and the sights of the delicious donuts,cinnamon rolls and fritters in the case. Take time out of you day to visit this super business. Just like the box says,?you deserve a donut.?
It was my 1st time in and right away felt welcomed the environment reminded me of home and the ladies working today were awesome. I just got home and finally got to try everything and now I know that I'll be a regular
I love this place. They have the best breakfast sandwiches, I highly recommend the ham, egg and cheese croissants. All the ladies that work there are very sweet and always smiling.
Best donuts in the state! Surprisingly awesome bagels too! Quick service and friendly staff make it a really pleasant experience.
My first time in and I'm sad I'm not closer. I had a cheese danish and a cream donut, they were outstanding. I asked about lemon Danish, I was told they'd make it if I called and ordered it. (I certainly will, I haven't found a lemon Danish in the Ocala area yet) I appreciate that they were willing to accommodate request.
Always go there after my blood work but don't tell my doctor..love the maple top angel cream filled donuts..they seem to be the first thing gone.. please make more
Old fashion doughnuts and they are wonderful. For those that have only experienced a pubic/Dunkin you're in for a pleasant surprise
Such a warm and welcoming establishment. My family and I love coming in to get some seasonal donuts or a quick breakfast. The bacon, egg & cheese croissants are heaven sent, and all the donuts are so fluffy and tasty. Today, the cashier was so kind to custom frost a strawberry donut for my daughter. Our business truly feels valued and for that, we will continue to support Fresh Start Donuts.
Always the best donuts and sandwiches! The kids love it.
Stopped in for the first time this morning, and it was one of the better choices I've made lately. I don't even have words for how good the lemon donut was. This place is great.
Best Donuts Ever!!!! This place is great. Everyone who works here is happy and there is always an amazing selection of donuts. The sandwiches are pretty good too. ?? ????????????
There's a reason this place is always packed- Everything is scrumptious!
Best Bagels and Cinnamon Rolls in Citrus County. Not a chain store
Dropped off my dog down the street to get groomed. I stopped in this wonderful little bagel place to grab a sandwich. It was the best sandwich I had In 30 years !!!
I?ve driven by this place hundreds of times. Decided to stop this time. Glad I did. Got a sour cream donut. Was, hands down, the best sour cream donut I?ve ever had. Also got a vanilla-coconut donut. So good. They say they?ve been there for years. Can see why. Great donuts. Highly recommended.
Oh my God this place is evil! Just kidding on a religious level but oh my gosh the apple fritter dangerous to say the least. The donuts are amazing! We just moved down from New England and was dealing with Duncan and in my opinion Dunkin' Donuts Now sucks compared to Fresh Start Donuts of Beverly Hills. I'm sorry but I told my wife do not find me any apple fritters anymore but hopefully she will. You guys rock keep up the great work
Every time I visit this place I order the Cuban Sandwich, it is delicious.
Wish they had sour cream donuts that weren't glazed
I've never had a bad experience here! Delicious donuts and wayyyy better than Dunkin. The staff are always so cheerful and eager to help.
This place is awesome, fresh, made, and so delicious. Almost sinful.
These were ok. Fruity pebbles were little stale. Maybe just me being in round 9. Overall if in area I'd definitely do the glazed regular. That's the winner here. Great yeasty flavor will say I loved that one and wish I'd gotten dozen of those. Coffee was good too. Nice spot for locals. No disrespect meant.
First time trying this place out. The coffee is great, the donuts are amazing. The staff made me feel very welcome. Definitely going back :)
Delicious & Friendly service. The cherry turnover was delicious, and their frozen caramel frappe was as well.
I don't know when they changed or why, but the delicious donuts have switched to over cooked, under sized, lead sinkers. Hope it's just an off day and not the new way of doing business.
Before today I'd have have said Fresh Start had the best pastries, hands down. Especially cinnamon rolls. Huddy had Drs appointment near by so picked up some for us. Hadn't had donuts here for a year or longer. Very disappointed. Dry, left a bad taste in my mouth afterwards. Done with Fresh Start.
I'm not one to leave reviews when it comes to donuts, however I have to say after my grandson told me about the place I figured I would give it a try, walking I to the donut shop your are greeted without hesitation, and the beautiful smiles I was greeted with on top of that I was happy I was there, I purchased a dozen donuts and 4 rolls, I did not open the box until I got home when I did open the box it was instant sunshine throughout my household. These donuts are no joke, there huge, perfectly b
Absolutely amazing. Came in about 8:50 ish, a few tables full of most likely regulars, Ms. Jodi (I later learned her name), welcomed us in and we stated that we were first timers, and she gave us a glazed donut to try, which was really cool. Super personable, she takes great pride in her work, as she should! It was clear that they used real fruit in their donuts (those that were fruit based anyhow), they were nice and light, no strange aftertaste, and they left you full! If you like pie, I strongly recommen
Out of this world (and I know donuts!) ! Absolutely delicious and perfectly selectable donuts that are for sure made with love. This is a JEM of a donut stop, I just had to shout it! And the service is amazing too, win win!!
The best donuts in the United States. I can turn down a donut Anywhere But Here. There apple fritter is to die for. You have to get there early if it's something you want specifically they sell out very quickly. I told my brother from Louisville Kentucky it's the best donut I've ever had and he agrees with me 100%. Don't really ever get lunch because I try to get there early to get the donuts. Just had the German chocolate donut last week and it was fabulous. You will not be disappointed.
My favorite local bakery. Everything here is good & fresh every day. Only downfall, if you dine in or have to wait in line, you come out smelling like a bakery. I wish the owner still did cakes, she does a excellent job on cakes as well.
Best donuts in town, hands down. People come from all over the county to get Fresh Start. Wonderful staff (say hi to Faye for me!) and amazing donuts, pastries, breakfast food, and lunches. Love the Leroy Hill coffee as well. Great place!
I had a bacon lettuce tomato sandwich on a croissant toasted with avocado it was excellent. A little pricey being $14 including my one donut
I have never been overly impressed with the big chain donuts. And have found more than a few smaller shops to be disappointing. But Fresh Start Donuts is amazing! What a great find in my new home town. I highly recommend!
The service at this place is fantastic, I bought the best Sandwich I have ever eaten, it had the best ingredients and combination of flavors. Thank you guys!
I would go here every morning if I could. We are so glad we found this place. May sound silly but we moved here recently and my kids missed our favorite donut spot. We found fresh start and their donuts are so delicious! That it reminds us of home. Fresh delicious donuts you can't go wrong I haven't tried their other breakfast but it smells good.
This is the best donut place around. No matter what we get it's always fresh. We've had the donuts, muffins, fritters, and breakfast sandwich. The staff is always friendly no matter how busy they are.
These people are Amazing. Ordered 1/2 dozen donuts I have been craving and they wouldn't let me pay for them since I'm a medical provider. I would gladly pay for these donuts ANYDAY; they are TERRIFIC! Not sure how or what they do to make such outrageous donuts but PLEASE CONTINUE. The staff are great people. So kind and accommodating. It's a please to have them in citrus county.
Lovely clean place the staff are really nice easy to talk to enjoyable had good decaf coffee made to my specific likings a hot ham and cheese croissant ?? , donuts which the have lots of donuts variety bought a cake pop. I felt confortable with the health guidelines they are using plenty space between the tables and tables outside. Nice clean kitchen and restroom.
Well this guy's where alright at one point in time. Now the food is not even worth a conversation and that's when you get the right order. I support local business, but when you lose your talent people tend to go somewhere else. God bless and I hope yall get things together.
First time here the other day and can't believe we've lived here 3+ years and never been. I got the sausage egg and cheese bagel and my husband got the bacon egg and cheese croissant both for less than 5 bucks each and two house coffees. The sandwiches were delish and nice and hot! The coffee was great..its fresh ground in house and believe me you can tatse it. Nice and strong too! We will definitely be back soon!
This place is excellent. Extremely good donuts. Service is fast and efficient. Food is excellent. And you get a free donut when you buy a dozen.
Freshest ?? in town! Will ONLY come here as I know everything is made from scratch, not trucked in like D&D. The price is worth it.
Went in for coffee and a fritter. The fritter was top notch and huge! Coffee was kinda watery... But it hit the spot none the less... The lady behind the counter was VERY nice... I'll definitely be back
I love this place let me tell you I grew up in the late 80s and in newyork we had huge doughnuts ?? now when I found this place it made me remember the good times when doughnuts were big not like Dunkin doughnuts size so small and over priced this place is it for me I so happy I found it . They do a great job on all doughnuts.
Had a granddaughter, grandpa date here. The staff is nice and the donuts were great. I had the apple fritter/bear claw and wow it's so big/rich I definitely suggest sharing it with someone.
I ?? their fattening donuts! Sooooo good! ??
Absolutely amazing! My first time there today and just blown away. Ordered a Cuban, raspberry filled chocolate croissant and glazed doughnut. Cuban is best in town totally authentic taste, doughnut was the best I've ever had you can tell it was truly homemade, croissant was huge and truly fluffy and delicious. My whole family enjoyed it and will only get our doughnuts and Cubans from there from now on
Great service - many thanks to Sarah, Faye, Felicia and Erica. Always helpful and with a smile and the food is amazing. Love those egg salad wraps, cubans, donuts, sub rolls, the list just goes on... it's our go-to place for lunches. Thanks again and see you soon!!
Best donuts in the universe! Unfortunately they are in BFF(bum f*#! Fla). Beverly hills sounds nice unless it's Florida ;{ but then there's this little AMAZING ?? shop with really, the best cake donuts ever made!! Worth the trip from Timbuktu or Tallahassee. Trust me, I'm a Homer S. and really know my sugars, these donuts kick lard lads in the dirt.
I recently had a donut from Fresh Start Donuts in Beverly Hills and i will never enjoy a corporate donut ever again. It was Boston cr?me and was twice the size of a 'normal' one. Absolute masterpiece. Support small businesses. This place will not disappoint. ???
