Greeted immediately and no line. Super clean. I ordered glazed donuts and petite fours. I quickly noticed one pan of donuts looked sad and almost like yesterdays. Well that may have been what I got because the icing was already off and they were a bit chewy. Kinda buttery dough which I think would have been great. These were also the smallest donut I've ever had. They honestly were just ok. I would definitely go back because I feel like they have to be fresh and I went in around noon. Although I didn't care for the petite four I will try a few an other things next time.

When we got home we realized that They only gave us 4 of the 6 glaze donuts. We called and talk to one of the employees, explained it to them and she said come back and they would give us the donuts. I told her it would be in the morning and she said she would have my name at the register. The next morning I came back and the employees basically called me a liar and would not give us what was missing. I do believe because I'm a black lady she thought I was lying. I do not have to lie for donuts ma'am sir. She made a mistake by not putting the full order in the bag. Mistakes happens lady and you made one. She was rude and ugly inside and out. I will not be back. My company will not be back as well.

Everything states they open at 5am, however, it only the doors open because the business isn't ready sell products until usually close if not after 6am. I believe if business hours should be the hours they can provide services not only the time they unlock the doors. So if you will open at 5am you should be at shop around 3:30 / 4 to have products ready to actually conduct business during hours of operations.
