We went here looking for a spot for brunch but we were met with some of the prettiest donuts I've ever seen. The smell of sweet, sugary goodness hits you when you open the door. There's not much seating but I don't think people come here to sit but they definitely come here first the yummy goodness. We let other customers ahead as we gazed at everything. There was nothing gluten free on the menu at the time but the owner assured me that when his wife returns from maternity leave, that I should expect some! A customer told us that she was just there previously for her kids but that she was buying herself treats as an early bday gift and told my sister that she had to try the banana pudding donut (pictured) and of course she did. She ate it before I took her home. 10 out of 10
We preordered a cronut sampler box after missing out a few times (I'm so bad with remembering preorder dates)! This weeks flavors were banana cream, ube, peach brulee, and key lime. Ordering online was a breeze and I checked before we left on where I was going so I knew what to look for! The gentleman working the counter was very friendly and knowledgeable. I was tempted to get another few doughnuts to try their "regular" ones but I controlled my urges and stuck with the cronuts. I'll definitely be back to check out the selection. The cronuts are exactly what I hoped for - insanely flakey, tons of filling, perfectly crispy but soft in the center. All of the flavors were well described and they portions are pretty sizeable! I'll definitely be back to try a few more things (especially since I know what to expect now)!
I love coming here in the mornings and so excited for them to start stocking local coffees! The donuts are amazing, but they sell out quickly on weekends, so go early! The staff is amazingly kind and always happy to tell you about everything they offer! I need to come back for the bread.
We have wanted to come by and try the donuts here for a while. You definitely want to come early as they sell out quickly and many people pre order especially on weekends and holiday weekends. The owner was very patient and even gave the kids the opportunity to personalize their donuts by adding different icings and sprinkles. I personally felt like everything was very sweet but the rest of my family thought they were delicious- especially the cinnamon sugar cronut.
The original donut connection will say "permanently closed" on Apple Maps due to the unit being a different restaurant but you'll find that the donuts are located inside the Philly Cheesesteak restaurant of the same plaza at the corner unit. I was in the mood for mochi donuts or cronuts but the cronuts already sold out for the day and there's a backorder on the ingredients to make the mochi donut. Nevertheless, I wasn't going to leave empty handed so chose the apple cider donut, lemon filled, and was hoping for a maple donut to which the gentlemen freshly glazed some!! They have a selection of donuts that are ready to be frosted and sprinkled so next time I'll speak up to see what else they can glaze bc I didn't want to hold up the line any longer. Very popular donut shop with a fast moving line. The gentlemen was the only one working so kudos for keeping the line going while filling orders and processing payments! The donut itself was fluffy, my boyfriend loved his maple glazed one but to me the glaze had a waxy texture. I loved my apple cider donut, great with the sugared edges and paired great with a cup of coffee at home.
This place is just delightful! The building has no signage for donuts at all--you'd think you're walking into a Philly cheesesteak place. But then you walk in and there's a donut case staring at you! This is the only place I know that sells Mochinut. The whole experience is delightfully quirky, but then there are the actual donuts--which are delicious. I got an assorted selection and had trouble deciding which to eat! We bought them and headed to the beach, enjoying them along the way. The people here are also great--super friendly. I will absolutely keep coming back (especially for those Mochinuts)! Parking: Plenty of parking, just make sure you're on the lookout for a Philly cheesesteak sign instead of a donut sign.
I'd wanted to try this place for a long time but it's a bit of a drive from my place. Since I had to be in the area, perfect time to order. Definitely order ahead of time! They are super busy and favorites go fast. First, the sign on the outside says Philly Cheesesteak so maybe that is what was previously in location. Easy to get in and out of parking lot. My first thought entering the shop was holy cow they need to clean the entrance. They have so much equipment and supplies crammed into their shop. They honestly could concentrate on a few flavors and not try to be all things to all people. Compared to other shops, their prices are reasonable. I preordered Strawberry & cream croissant, cinnamon roll and lemon filled paczki. The flavors were everything people have raved about. My favorite was the croissant...not too sweet, pastry was flaky with the perfect amount of crunch. Strawberries were fresh and the cream was delicious. I devoured before I even got out of the parking lot. Definitely worth making the trip.
Very much a hole in the wall donut shop! My fiancée was excited to see pork roll was on the menu so we had to give it a try (she's from New Jersey). I was very excited to taste the amazing donuts I see all over the Facebook page! The service was great. The pork roll would have been better if it was on a bagel instead of the sourdough. The person who took our order informed us he was running a little behind today and apologized. Sourdough was all they had at the moment. I think for the pork roll, egg & cheese with ketchup, salt & pepper, the sourdough just got soggy very quickly BUT the quality of ingredients & the amount of stuff on the sandwich was perfect. Defines get what you pay for! It was not skimpy in any way. I also enjoyed the apple fritter. I wanted to try a few donuts but we decided we will be back to try the pork roll on a bagel & I'll grab a donut next time.
I don't know about the review 22 days ago, but the website is invalid and the place is completely empty even though yelp says it should be open Sunday April 13. There is barely anything in the store and emergency lights are on.
This is a tough review to write. The doughnuts I had here were pretty good, and definitely they had a few interesting options like donuts made with mochi. But virtually none of the basics were available and I was here at 9 AM on a Saturday. The place is so very strange, it's also a pizza shop or deli of some sort? It has tables inside but it's a train wreck, no way are you sitting down; they had a drink cooler that was empty. And the kitchen looks like pure chaos, and frankly I saw the tubs of donut toppings totally uncovered and the whole area was covered in splatter from it, which was bad enough but I saw a few flies in there too and all I could think of was these flies being all over the donut toppings. The staff was super nice and I liked my donuts, they were the puffy, not cakey, variety. Coffee claims to be the best in the world, it was basic gas station coffee which is actually pretty fine, it wasn't acidic, but it wasn't very flavorful either. If this place got their kitchen together and just spent a day organizing the place, picking up, cleaning up, etc. it would go a long way to making it feel more comfortable, and the other way to get to the full fix stars is to expand the menu to include staples like glazed and jelly filled and custard filled.

We popped in after the owner posted a tiktok about it and it was delicious! We came in around lunch and the man working was very nice. We got half a dozen and everything was so good. We also got a cronut and apple fritter which were amazing too. read more

Absolutely hands down the best donuts we've ever had. They will dip them or add fillings, if you ask. Great mom and pop business. And Philly Cheesesteaks for lunch, too! read more
Oh my gosh y'all have to try this !! Did a little online shopping and ended up ordering a filled king cake online. Totally forgot to pick it up , called to apologize and ask about rescheduling. The baker ended up delivering this king cake to me- HOT and fresh. The smell is divine. This may not be the traditional kings cake, but it's so much more gooey, soft and deliciously crunchy with sugar. I don't even like donuts, so I haven't been here before. I will be going back for fresh bakery items and coffee. Life's too short not to! I have abandoned my New Years diet resolution and I'm enjoying a piece of decadent kings cake. Totally worth it. read more

It has been so fun these past couple visits. Today I felt like a little kid at Christmas going into a rotisserie. The owners are creating some amazing donuts that you just can't get around here and not only that but a lemon meringue croissant?! Yes, please.. they are always so nice and kind and now that they merged their two businesses together you're able to get donuts later on in the day which is nice because I like to swing by and get them for meetings. read more

Hubby recently discovered cronuts and decided they are his new favorite pastry so I Googled up where to have some delivered for his birthday. I was up and had the Doordash order in an hour and a half before they opened. That's the way to do it, because when the order was dropped off the food and coffee was hot, fresh, and delicious. My cortado was a bit sweet because I didn't know they automatically sweeten it, but it was tasty and got my morning started right. The classic New York bagel was perfect: nice lox, big slabs of cream cheese, capers, and what I think was pickled red onion because something had a wonderful sweet flavor that made it extra special. It was huge and filling! The sausage, egg, and cheese muffin sandwich was also enormous and delicious. The cinnamon roll was fresh and soft and as big as my head! I think it has golden raisins, some little tangy-sweet bits of fruit. It was so good I kept tearing pieces off throughout the day and eventually conquered it. The fabled cronuts, the reason we were there (or, rather, they were here), were all he had hoped: light, buttery, crisp, fluffy, and sweet, a perfect birthday breakfast with some fresh home-brewed Puerto Rican coffee. read more

I have never been in here before but have seen locations in other areas. I decided to stop in with my daughter on the way to an appointment in Monck's Corner. We got in around 930 and were promptly greeted by the lady behind the counter. There weren't very many donuts left in the case (at 930am on a Tuesday!) which shows that they are very popular. Thankfully they had one strawberry sprinkle donut left, which Nora had been asking for the whole car ride over. (The lady behind the counter said they could have prepared her one if needed- so that was VERY nice). I got a vanilla buttercream filled donut that was topped with chocolate and sprinkles. Both donuts and a chocolate milk cost me less than five bucks, so that's a win in my book. The donuts were fluffy and definitely fresh. They tasted fantastic. I can't wait to get in and try some others they had. The flavors varied from plain to intricate and common flavors to new ones I hadn't thought of before. The storefront was small but quaint. It has a few tables, highchairs and booster seats. My only complaint is they don't have a bathroom. They directed me to the restaurant next door, which was fine- until I walked in and immediately walked back out after seeing the bathroom. Usually I don't worry about these things, but having a kid it's sort of important. NO worries- it won't stop me from returning! read more

This place is absolutely amazing. The service was phenomenal. I don't remember the guys name who made our sandwiches, but he explained everything. It was our first time coming here they hand bake all of their hard rolls and they have farm fresh eggs that aren't mass produced they have a pork roll sandwich that's out of this world and the bacon egg and cheese was equally as phenomenal. The donuts looked amazing. We only got a, but we will definitely be back read more

I've only managed to get donuts here once (kinda far from home) but the second time I went (which was today,) they were closed although their hours online say open until 8pm. Got there around 6pm and it was closed. Nonetheless, the donuts are very good. I happened to get some that were freshly made and they were excellent, but I could tell the difference between those and others that had sat there all day. I will definitely try to go back near opening time because they are that delicious when fresh. I only met one woman who worked there and she was very nice and helpful. Will return again! read more
