Customer Reviews

Some of the best donuts around. Have been the same for many many years. Food and coffee are great. Service always with a smile. She always refuses my tip and throws in extra donuts. Prices are super. I drive out of my way when I want a good donut to go there. Hope they never change!

Came to this spot around 9:30pm, and the guy there was super helpful and super friendly. We got both fried doughnuts and cake doughnuts - both were soft and fluffy. No dry bites! The cake doughnuts we got were blueberry. Notes: we were told it was cash only (6 doughnuts for $8).

IWinchells sucks. Yum Yum is good. Krispy Kreme is good but the best coffee and donuts is Mitchell?s! I crave their coffee and donuts! Their donuts are fresh and fluffy and the coffee is excellent!

Quick easy stop. Donuts had a great taste other than the strudel tasted kinda old. Definitely worth a try if your in the area.

Donuts are always fresh and warm when I stop by

Great place, having drive through helps it a whole awful lot. Super kind and friendly, awesome customer service. Donuts are usually fresh but there are many times when the donuts feel a bit hard past midday. On a side note, this place needs a bit more color and lively look. The place is amazing overall.

Best place to get fresh donuts! The owner is super friendly and sweet.

Becareful of old lady around 70 years. She gives wrong donuts, trys to push unpopular donuts and charges more. She needs to retire and let the other lady and sons handle it. She needs to be gardening, strolling in the park not working

(Translated by Google) The raisin songs sing to me, but they are almost always old. On one occasion they lowered the price because I was old. But now the last 3 times it has been old. Hard. I don't think I'm going to buy it anymore (Original) Los golceados raisin me e cantan, pero casi siempre estan viejos. En una ocasion me bajaron el precio x estar viejo. Pero ahora las 3 ?ltimas veces ha estado viejo. Duro. Creo no lo voy a comprar m?s
