Donut Factory- I thought we'll get to view the process of donut making…read more My kids were disappointed, it wasn't a factory instead a shop. Anyways, service was okay. Not impressed with the donuts. Either it was not fresh or the texture and taste was different. They already decided this wasn't their favorite donut stop. My son ordered donut sprinkles and my daughter got the mini donuts. No bathrooms. Inside the shop, they have seating space and tons of parking.

Now I know why... it was not very good and I was utterly disappointed! It honestly tasted like day old donuts, a little stale and it did not have that fresh greasy, crispy crunch OR the swirls of apple pie pieces throughout. I don't eat donuts, but I love apple fritters and consider myself a connoisseur. But, they did have a delicious, fresh looking maple bar with what looked like fresh-cooked bacon bits on them. I don't like maple bars, but that looked good. I will have to make sure I go to a tried and true place next time I have a hankering for an apple fritter.

Beautiful views that trail wrap around vineyards- the entrance is breathtaking! Small pop up booths of local vendors surround the orchard with cute gifts and souvenirs for the harvest season. They also have a fruit stand- & i love fresh fruit but the majority of the fruit here was split open and looking dull or brown in appearance like it was close to expiring. The lines were long for the cider donuts & sadly it didn't move fast. So I never got to try to cider donuts bc when I went it was almost one hr from closing. A lot of the pies were sorted through and the ones left were scattered in type and limited so decided not to take one home. And it was overall a smaller, more crowded stand then I expected with limited variety. Im sure they have great cider donuts- but I would recommend getting here first thing in the morning. This seems to be one of the more popular stands and parking can become complicated. I will have to give it another try to see a true experience because I feel like I didn't get to gather the true festive experience here.

Hello Sunshine! Sunshine Donuts that is. It's a little donut shop in the rural suburbs in the town…read moreof Placerville. I remember when this little building was the Italian Place restaurant. That restaurant moved down the road to a bigger location. Now it's the home for Sunshine Donuts. They have darn delicious donuts! I only tried their donuts; at least for now. They also sell bagels, breakfast sandwiches, hot coffee, and a humongous cold case of nonalcoholic drinks (milk, teas, sodas, seltzers, waters. juices, energy drinks, and coffee drinks). Lots of drink choices to quench your thirst even if donuts aren't your thing. I know my way around a donut. Having been a connoisseur from an early age, thanks dad. The donuts sat so prettily behind the glass counter. All so gorgeous without bubbling and cracked glazes. That tells me they know how to handle the various doughs and baking methods for the donuts. I bought one of each: cake, glazed and old fashion. And ate them right away. Mmm. Delicious. The vanilla cake with white frosting tasted rich and dense like a cake. Not heavy. The glazed donut was light, fluffy, with a slight all so prefect signature donut chew. Beautiful glazing, not too sweet. My favorite. The old fashion like the cake donut had a tasty cakey interior but classic crackly outside texture. The family that owns the business knows donuts! And are so welcoming, epitome of a local donut shop. Throwing out a history lesson: This area is informally called Gutenberg Corner. The Victorian house across the street was built around 1859 by the local mill owner. Then purchased in 1912 by pharmacist Gutenberg. He owned a 400+ acre ranch along with a pharmacy. Asian owned business.

I even confirmed the price during the phone call because I wanted to make sure I understood correctly. The order was very simple , plain doughnuts, half maple and half chocolate. When I came in on Wednesday to pick them up, I added 4 additional doughnuts at the counter for my family. The total came out to $62, which was more than double what I had been quoted. I asked if the amount was correct and explained that I had been told $30 for the original order. The employee recalculated it and still said it was correct, then asked if I still wanted them. Unfortunately, this put me in a very uncomfortable position because there were people behind me, my children were with me, and the doughnuts were for my daughter's school class. I felt embarrassed and pressured into paying an amount I was not prepared for based on the quote I had received. Mistakes happen, but the situation was handled with very little concern or effort to make it right. The experience left a bad impression, and I won't be returning.

From various resturants, boutiques, excellent customer service, cute activities like petting zoos, relaxing pond area, and a cute surrounding orchards and suburbs nearby. Absolutely stunning views- the lines can be long so get there as early as you can. Parking is in an apple orchard field- i recommend driving to this location with an SUV or carpooling if possible. & Definitely can't leave without cider donuts. I only got 1 box but definitely recommend getting 2. I absolutely loved the cinammon and regular cider donuts- they even have slices of apple making them the authentic fall treat! Never had them like this before so I loved it!! They have cute events all season long so I recommend taking a look into their upcoming events & making a trip!

Pachamama Coffee made me the most amazing peppermint iced tea I've ever had…read more It was quite hot during our trip and the honey went in to order so my peppermint tea came with a small splash of honey which I'd normally not have gotten but was perfection with this drink. I loved that they had an adorable little garden area outside with a ton of outside seating (both shaded and un-shaded) as well as benches and although my tea took a few minutes to brew it was well worth it. If Pachamama Coffee were closer we would absolutely visit more often because they were fantastic!

Ten minutes after getting our order, both breakfast sandwiches were cold. Not "could be hotter"…read morecold -- actually cold, with part of the egg still cold like it barely touched heat. The cheese looked like it was thrown on straight from the fridge and left there as an afterthought. The hash browns tasted like freezer burn and old oil, like they were made yesterday and reheated. For the prices you charge, serving food this bad is insulting. Warming up breakfast food should not be a challenge, yet somehow this place failed at the most basic part of its job. This wasn't a minor mistake, this was lazy, careless food prep and zero quality control. If you can't serve hot breakfast, maybe stop selling breakfast.

I quickly glanced and the menu as the person at the front greeted me- as I did not see juices, I asked if they had any. The person shouted to the someone at the back to double check, but they did not have any. So, for the record, the categorization is wrong. I had to choose then one of their proteins that, although look healthy, had names that would make you think otherwise like birthday cake, mint oreo, cinnamon toast crunch? Really? I guess that is what they consider healthy in this area. Waited around looking at the pace, nicely put together but not the cleanest. Had the orange mango one. It was ok, a bit heavy, but I was told it had so many grams of protein so I guess it is healthy? MAy you find this place more satisfying than I did.
