    a display of pastries and pastries

    Cool little donut shop on the main strip near the lake. We had lunch and drove no more than 5 minutes before we seen Castle Donuts. Besides the regular donuts they have donuts with buttercream icing, pastries, bobas and donuts shaped in character which definitely catches the children's eyes. The lady who helped us was very polite, pleasant and informative. She took great detail in explaining what she has to offer. Here's a photo of the bunny my nephew had to have. We typically don't see these, so I said why not. My niece said her mango boba definitely two thumbs up. My mom & I each enjoyed our own buttercream chocolate bar and yes it was worth the splurge.

    Big 9 inch donut!

    Every time I stay in a new place I like to find a local donut shop to get donuts at. Sometimes it's a basic place and not great but this place was a great find! The staff was friendly and when I only ordered 9 donuts she informed me that if I order 1 more that I would get 2 for free! Very sweet people! The donuts are also fresh and delicious! Good variety of choices!

    Great service and excellent selection. Long lines but go very quickly. The crumb cinnamon snail was worth every calorie. Reasonable prices.

    This place is a little gem in clearlake. My friends were craving coffee so we stopped here. This…read moreplace has a drive through but also inside seating/ ordering. We chose to order/ sit inside. They have a few parking spaces available. The inside was super cute! A few different areas to sit, very comforting and relaxed vibe, with good tunes playing in the background. The service was excellent - kind and they brought out our drinks to us as well. We had such a good time here we came back the next day! They had some food options available but we only were in the mood for drinks at the time. I got a: Smoothie (mango + blueberry) with apple juice and yogurt, with whipped cream on top. The overwhelming flavor was the apple juice, but the smoothie was still refreshing and cheap. No complaints. This coffee shop also borders the lake so we sat for awhile inside, but then took our drinks out to overlook the water. It was so beautiful.

    Five stars for the incredible staff! Don't worry, the coffee drinks we had were amazing as well…read more This little sit down and drive through place won me over when the barista offered me a multitude of options when they ran out of my first choice. Small but cozy and decorated with kitschy and cute decor, this coffee house/cafe offers coffee, tea, matcha, boba drinks, smoothies and fresh juices. They also have breakfast goodies and other items like muffins, burritos and frittatas. Everything is fresh and served quick. You can sit inside or there are also some outside benches overlooking the lake in the back. I was able to order a sugar-free blended mocha with sugar-free whipped cream. Ahem, REAL whipped cream. Yes it was fantastic and a great price as well. They have a huge variety of flavored syrups and options, protein bases and vegan milks and can create drinks on par with a certain windmill chain...ONLY better! Shoutout and thank you to the wonderful staff and especially to the sweetest barista ever, who helped me customize my drink to fit my dietary needs. It is a great place to stop either when in Clearlake or on your way to another adventure.

    ZERO STARS!!!My first time visiting this coffee shop was 4 years ago. And it was great. We went…read moreback today and had our best friends with us, excited to show them a really neat and eclectic coffee shop. That is NOT what we found. When we walked up the once cute landscaping on their patio area was unkempt and cluttered with old motorcycle parts. Walking in I immediately noticed the lack of cleanliness. There is just clutter everywhere. And it was covered in dust and grime. There are three tables in the place. Two of which were being taken up by people that weren't actually eating or drinking anything. The other table had a dusty Christmas tree sitting on it with no space to be used as a dining table. One of the workers was I guess just kind of hanging out with those people and the other worker was standing at the register. What I'm getting at is, neither worker was actively making anything for anyone that was currently taking up dining space for actual patrons. The space was so cluttered with stuff you would have thought it might be someone's storage space instead of a restaurant. The whole atmosphere of the place was just gross. I needed to use the bathroom as we were on an 8 hour road trip home. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. There was no soap in the bathroom and the sink and toilet looked like they had never been cleaned. I live by a rule I learned from watching Gordon Ramsey. If the bathroom of a dining establishment isn't kept clean the kitchen won't be either. This rule has served me pretty well I think. And this place was screaming food poisoning central. The two that worked there seemed nice enough but the pride they have for the place is completely absent. The menu they have in place looks good, but the cleanliness of the place completely ruined it for us. We decided not to eat. We still needed a stretch of the legs before getting back on the road so we were going to enjoy some fresh air outside on the patio. We couldn't even do that because it smelled like pee. And there was bird poop all over the tables. I really love to see quirky and eclectic places succeed, but this place has lost its pizzazz and needs to be closed down. How the health department hasn't done this yet is beyond me.

    THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!! I'm not a local but when I come to visit I always go out of my way to stop…read morehere before heading home! The owner is very kind and gives top tier customer service.
