Customer Reviews

Thanks Kim for great service over the years.

Great service and great donuts. They are soft and not oily or dense. You know you got a great donut when the donuts is soft and fluffy on the inside.

Best cash and card donut spot local to where I live. There is a cash only spot but they never seem to have the donuts all out at the same time. I prefer to pay with card so this is my go to

Home made muffins. Sandwich croissants (try the sausage and egg). Nicest lady in the donut industry. She has been in this tiny, hard to get to storefront for decades. She's put her kids through college and they work in the donut shop on weekends. She may not be there for too much longer because her rent is being increased. Support this local icon.

Great neighborhood donut shop! The lady who works there is very friendly. I usually get the breakfast sandwiches and the portion is just right. The donuts are great too! They open pretty early which is convenient.

I love this place. The donuts are always fresh and the employees are super nice. You have to try their ham cheese and jalapeno croissant's !!!! You won't regret it.

Very little attention paid to the actual food. Portions were to tiny and rather poor in quality. Knowledge of coffee was almost entirely missing. Was glad that it was open, when others were closed. If they spend so much time there, why not tidy it up a little bit to make it look more....appetizing.

Love this place, staff always has been nice. I have been coming here for 20+ years, my pops used to take me back when to. Great donuts and hot croissants????????????

The best donut ?? and breakfast sandwiches in town are one of my favorite places

The people working the store were super nice! The donuts taste great, and you can't beat the prices of it. Highly recommend it!
