    I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese croissant and it was by far the worst breakfast sandwich I've ever eaten. Crossiant was hard and the bacon/egg tasted like a dirty grill. They had almost no donuts at 6am so I grabbed one of the only chocolate ones, an old fashioned. It was very greasy and crumbly so it didn't feel fresh. Never never coming here again

    Came here to try their donuts and grab some coffee and it was so good!! The donuts were light and bouncy when you bit into it and the ice coffee was delicious with cream and sugar on the counter to adjust yourself. They threw in some extra donut holes with my donut which I appreciated such a nice neighborhood donut spot! I'll be back!

    Bug in my cruller glazed donut

    It was great service but so disappointing, disgusting, disturbing !... when your about to take a big bite of your donut and see a dark something in your donut pick it out and see it's a bug idk what kind.

    Absolutely phenomenal and my new favorite donut shop! I came in at 10 AM on a Friday and they had…read moreplenty of selection of all my favorite kinds of donuts. The cashier let me know that the apple fritters I was looking at were fresh out of the oven and still warm, so I had to try those and they were the best apple fritters I've ever had! (Fresh is always better, of course). But we also tried their blueberry cake donuts, maple bars, glazed old fashions, and a few others and all were very soft, luscious, and just a perfect version of that type of donut. I have high standards for baked goods and it only took touching one of their classic sugar covered donuts and feeling just how pillowy soft it was to know they have an amazing rise and fantastic quality. I will be returning here from now on for all my donuts!! The shop is cute inside too. They have small tables for eating your purchase afterwards and offer coffee and tea. It doesn't feel like you're in the way here and the service was incredibly friendly and welcoming. No critiques whatsoever!

    I would like more transparency. Please label the over a day old, dry donuts as such and maybe not…read moresell them at Full price. Boyfriend surprised me with donuts, so sweet. Unfortunately, his favorite, the Buttermilk Bar and Powdered Sugar were TOO DRY to even eat. We threw them in the trash. The Boston Cream was really good however. We had tried Nory's once before, he thought that he would give them a 2nd try. Waste of money.

The prices are steep. I ordered four donuts and six donut holes and the total came to over $20. There are donut shops nearby with better quality donuts that may not be as large (they're are regular/average size), but they're more reasonably priced. The setup is walk-up windows only, with a few seating options on the side near parking lot. Customer service was okay--not particularly warm, but not rude either. I don't enjoy leaving a review like this, but these days people are paying close attention to value. With how expensive everything has become, it's harder to justify spending this much on something like donuts. Don't get me wrong, if I have the luxury or feeling of splurging, there are plenty of specialty donut shops throughout California that fit that category. Unfortunately, this one just isn't for me, though it clearly still has a loyal customer base.
