Move over Dunkin!! Lou is serving up some serious Donuts over here...and they're literally a $1!!!…read more
First off, the place itself is super cute. Not too much seating, but you've got a couple tables where you can settle for a bit! The wall art is out of this world (literally)...loving the outerspace theme!!
Then, your eyes travel over to the good stuff....donuts of all varieties! You've got the basics at $1, and then some signature donuts at $3. There's literally a Donut for everyone!! Let's talk details:
- Size: They def appear smaller than your typical Donut, but they don't have the Donut hole, so in reality, you're getting a decent helping for $1
- Variety: You've got the basics (boston creme, jelly, glazed...), but then there's blueberry with lemon filling, coconunt with lemon filling, cereal topped, vanilla oreo...).
- Taste & Texture: Dude, I'm not kidding. These were some of the best donuts I've had. The texture is soft, with a slight chew. You can literally see the air pockets when you tear it apart. We tried the vanilla oreo, strawberry vanilla filled, blueberry lemon filled, and powdered Jelly). Each had a lovely flavor! You can stop at one...but then you'll be craving more not even an hour later.
- Shelf life: We all know how donuts can go stale from certain establishments (yet we still go back ;) ). Not these guys. They are truly baked fresh each. I practiced some serious self constraint and tested them over three days (I couldn't wait any longer(. The donuts held up through day 3, no lie.
Now, here's the thing...you hear $1 donuts, you think this is gonna be a hit or miss, but you don't feel bad cause it's just a dollar so you're not breaking the bank. Then you bite into one of these bad boys and you're like damn...that's a dollar donut??!! That was my experience and I think it will be yours as well! If you haven't done so yet, stop by dollar donuts soon. I promise you will not be disappointed :)
P.S. Thank you Lou for an exceptional experience. I still can't believe you literally went in the back to powder some Jelly donuts when you were out of them. That kind of service is absolutely above and beyond!! Loved hearing your family's story, and truly wishing you much success!
