Always clean and friendly. Pretty much had everything there from donuts to kolaches to croissants. Always fresh good prices!

Finally got a chance to try them this morning and I think we've found a new Friday breakfast stop. Friendly staff and excellent breakfast croissants as well as freshly-baked donuts. ALL the baked goods are very light with excellent texture.
