Customer Reviews

It?s always a good pit stop! We had this as a weekly treat years ago when traveling through. We were around the area this weekend and grabbed some again. I love this shop!

Love our local doughnut shop!

This was a wonderful little shop. Their apple turnovers are amazing and their coffee is delicious. Made just the way I asked her and hit the spot that?s for sure lol definitely recommend this bakery

Got 2 large cotton candy snow cones didn?t taste any of the cotton candy there wasn?t even a table spoon of cotton candy.

They have great donuts. My kids love them. I personally like the ooey gooey butter bars.

I went in with my son after his football game today for a little "pick me up"...we arent from the area but we had ridden by before for another game and made plans to stop next time. I'm so glad we did! The owner's son waited in us and was so friendly! I had the cookie dough ice cream and my son had chocolate...both were amazing! What was even better however were the Oreo balls ... Yum! Brought home a red velvet one for my husband and he was more than pleased! Would definitely recommend. I wish it was closer

This is the best donut shop around!

We stopped here on a road trip and got a variety of pastries and donuts. Everything we had was delicious! Especially the fried pies!

This lil bakery in downtown has some of the best jelly filled donuts with white icing that you will ever eat and the donut holes r to die for! Good customer service and the prices aren't bad for today's standards.

Drove 30 minutes to get there at 5:15 am and they were not open went to Casey?s and got donuts. Came back thru they still not open.

This amazing little shop offers a great menu. To start they have hand dipped ice cream, Hot fresh yummy doughnuts, cookies, cake balls, pumpkin rolls so much more. I haven?t been disappointed once. Employees are really friendly, clean building. You won?t be disappointed try it out for yourself.

Delicious bakery! Donuts were perfect, and the coffee was fresh. She had several cookies and cupcakes decorated beautifully. Turnovers were stuffed with filling and the long johns were iced with a perfect chocolate! If we ever travel by her again, we MUST stop!

Open way late and early morning with hot whatever you want everytime. Love the drive thur too.

Great tasting fresh doughnuts

Great find in Sturgis! Logan helped us out, everything was fresh made. Open late, especially for the small town location! The owner, Journey was also very nice. Cool spot for ice cream too!

It's odd; weirdest storefront you'll ever see but some of the best confectionery I've ever eaten. We got one of about seven different treats and they were all outstanding. Don't pay attention to the building I guess. It's worth a stop.

Been going there for years, and they have the best pastries in the tristate area

Best Donuts Ever! Family ran small business! If you?re wanting something sweet they can take care of that sweet tooth!

Always a delightful stop here! They have great donuts and a wide variety to appeal to anyone that comes in. Plus the kids love this place.

I had their chess brownie bars & regular donuts ???????????? they have so much to offer you. my hometown ??

Stopped in for some ice cream with our granddaughter, and left with a few dozen donuts for the next day. Everything was excellent!

Material in the picture is worth 1,000. Traded 2 dozen of your finest glazed for it today, and got to go in late! Lol

This is the best place to go for doughnuts. We go here at least once a week and always have a good experience.
