Customer Reviews

An absolute 10/10 donut. The service was also fantastic! I happened to be driving through the area and decided to check out how the donuts were here. The inside is pretty standard, but the service and donuts I had were great. I got an apple fritter and blueberry and cream cheese pastry. Both of these absolutely knocked it out of the park! Overall, I'd highly recommend checking them out and giving them a try!

I love this place! It is perfect for a quick snack. Their coffee was amazing! The donuts looked so good. I had a hard time choosing which one to take. The cashier was friendly and the food wasn?t expensive at all. I love to come here and you will too!

We finally had the chance to stop by Le Donut today and we were NOT disappointed! The staff was welcoming, friendly and helpful. The selection was great, especially since we didn't get there until almost 11 am. We purchased several different types of donuts and they were ALL fresh and delicious!!! We will definitely be back for more!

The new ownership has changed all of the recipes from the previous. If you go into the business for the same delicious pastries you will be greatly disappointed. They changed the pastry itself, chocolate icing and the most disappointing feature, the white fluff icing. My entire family walked out without even eating what we purchased after tasting the items.

I love this place very great Donuts great great sandwich. Food are delicious.and very good customer service. I absolutely will be back again and again. I strongly recommend this. Please give them a try. You guys will know what I?m talking about . Thanks very much you guys for delicious food ????.

Absolutely love this place!! The owner is so nice and so is all the staff. Always smiling and soo helpful. The breakfast food and doughnuts is delicious and all made fresh. The biscuits are made fresh and not store bought and that's something hard too find anymore in a small town. Can't forget that the prices are affordable and well worth it. Thank you all for opening up!! See you again ??

Very nice variety of options for donuts and breakfast sandwiches. The apple fritter and strawberry turnover are my favorites. Will have to try the maple Long John with the bacon strip next time.

Best donuts I've ever eaten! quick fast service, very polite and professional!

I bought a long John and an Apple Fritter, neither had any flavor and were dry, then I was chastised for using my debit card, don?t think I will be going back

Current staff rude to previous owners offering to help?. ????

I love the donuts over there

Thank you for being so kind and helpful! The coffee was great!
