Very strange experience. We placed a "too good to go" order at this establishment. When I arrived to pick it up, the lady behind the counter, looked at me, said she had canceled my order online, and walked away without so much as an explanation or an apology. If they don't want to be part of this program, they shouldn't have signed up for it. There were dozens of donuts still available so it's not like they ran out. The shop was also very dirty so it's probably best we didn't get an order from them.

The people who work here are really nice and efficient. Their donuts are great, just really good traditional donuts. But the maple bar with whipped cream is phenomenal. I like coming here and I'd return again. 4 starts because I thought the apple fritter was kind of small compared to many other shops. It was still great.

We each got old fashioneds. One maple and one chocolate. What we noticed about several of the donuts were they weren't as brown as they should be. When we got home they looked like old fashioneds. The frosting seemed spot on, but the doughnut itself was soft almost squishy like they were undercooked. Just as the color told us. Hubs got a variety of donut holes to try the different donuts and that was wise. They too were undercooked. Didn't eat them all. Disappointing all around. Visually their donuts were cute.

Fresh, fluffy, and never greasy. Ever since moving to Orangevale, this is my fav donut spot. However, I have to give a shout out after taking the chance on trying their low key infamous giant donut! I ordered one for my daughter's birthday which was easy enough with the friendly staff. I was so impressed with how the quality of their regular donut is still maintained in this big guy. Children and parents were happy :) They have awesome breakfast croissants too. All I have to say is go check out this sweet family shop!

The donuts bring me back to donuts of my childhood. Don't know what they are doing to make them taste so good, but keep it up.

Oh my goodness...I've been craving a delicious Donut...My God doesn't disappointment me...So as I…read morewas driving down Hazel Avenue heading North, I spotted a shop simply named Donuts, well that's what my eye saw. My God wants me to be a little sweeter...so I had to try out the Donut Shop!!! I'm telling you my taste buds and my tummy were singing. These donuts are the freshest most delicious donuts I have encountered in a long time. I was in Heaven biting into the most crunchiest on the outside and so fluffy/moist on the inside Apple Fritter!!!! This sweet little lady really knows how to make a delicious Apple Fritter. I also tried a cake donut with chocolate frosting...also so fresh and moist...I really enjoyed both of my donuts!!! The cup of coffee with half and half I bought to chase my donuts was very fresh and yummy also. Was the best thing I could have chased my donuts with!!! The little lady behind the count was so warm and welcoming. She even laughed at my sense of humor with me as I paid for my delicious donuts. If you're like me and craving a donut and you're in the area...this is the place for you. Well I'd say it's worth the drive to go out your way for this donut spot!!! I'm so grateful My God made me look to the left as I was cruising down Hazel Avenue. Head on over and give them a try. Let me know how much you enjoyed these delicious donuts!!! Maybe I'll see you there, cause I know I will be returning!!!! Sorry no photos I had to walk back to my bus and as I walked I had to bite into my donuts. They were gone before I knew it.

We made a spontaneous stop here on a Sunday around 10:30a while on an outing. The inventory was…read morequite depleted. The kind & sweet lady working there was apologetic. Apparently, a big local event was happening that day & a lot of people had come in earlier. The shop was clean. The floor to ceiling windows made it bright with natural light . There were a few tables for 2-4 people to sit & enjoy treats there. We picked a buttermilk bar with chocolate glaze & a chocolate cake donut with chocolate glaze & coconut. She generously threw in a raised glaze! We also got a mocha. The mocha was just basic. The buttermilk bar had a nice outer crust, a tender inside, & the chocolate wasn't too sweet. Just my kind of donut! Little one said her cake donut was delicious & enjoyed it with enthusiasm. The raised was yeasty & not overly sweet. Overall, tasty traditional donuts & nice service.

Julian's was such a pleasant surprise. We stopped in for breakfast and ordered the breakfast wrap,…read morebacon, egg & cheese croissant, Nutella crepe, and avocado toast. The service was fantastic from start to finish. We had the chance to chat with Julian himself along with a couple other staff members, and everyone was incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. The stars of the meal were definitely the breakfast wrap and the bacon, egg & cheese croissant. The breakfast wrap had the perfect balance of scrambled eggs, bacon, seasoned potatoes, avocado, and cheddar cheese. Everything worked together without any one ingredient overpowering the others, and the salsa on the side was a great addition. Honestly, it's one of the best breakfast burritos/wraps I've had. And the croissant... wow. It was absolutely delicious. The eggs were perfectly cooked, the croissant was light, flaky, and buttery, and every bite was packed with flavor. The Nutella crepe was also very good. The crepe itself was perfectly made, though there was a little more Nutella than I personally prefer. Next time I'll probably ask for less, but that's purely a matter of taste. The avocado toast was the only item that didn't quite hit the mark for me. It was good, but the honey flavor dominated the dish and drowned out some of the other ingredients. I'd love to taste a little more balance there. Overall, the food, atmosphere, and genuine hospitality made for a great breakfast. We'll definitely be back, and I'll be dreaming about that croissant until then.

Great food and service What more could I want?…read moreTheir crepes are all good and they do a great salad

REALLY GOOD! I came here on a late Saturday morning and…read morethere was a relatively long line. It did move pretty quick and they were getting orders out quickly, too. I ordered a chai latte with oat milk ($8), and it was DELICIOUS. Definitely in my top 5 chai I've had. I will definitely be back. Oh, also, there was plenty of seating inside and outside. There were a good number of people occupying tables, so it was a good ambiance and setting for meeting someone, working alone, etc.

Checked out Pause Coffee House after a class at ARC hoping to find some good food and a new study…read morespot. I came during a busy hour which wasn't idea but didn't affect anything in regard to the taste of what I got! Typically I like to find a spot that's quietly busy so if you're wanting to do the same I would try to come when it's less busy as I found myself slightly overstimulated by the business and seeing all the seats filled up which otherwise is a good sign! The Banana Dream Match caught my eye so I ordered it immediately along with an Avocado toast + egg ( extra cost). They give you a buzzer for the food and you have to find a corner to wait in that's out of the way and pick your food up by the kitchen. The vibe was very open and I liked the different seating options as well as the abundance of outlets. I ended up eating outside to get away from the busyness and the I was in the middle of talking when the taste of the Banana hit me. The best. Banana matcha I've ever had. Which I didn't expect because I've tried so many but what I loved most is that the banana flavor was sweet but tasted like real banana and the matcha flavor was still present. The banana flavor wasn't just at the top either it was top to bottom so every sip tasted the same making it soooo good!! The Avocado toast was good as well a little on the tangy side but I loved the egg. Great spot when it's less busy which would make parking easier as well but glad I stopped in to find my new favorite matcha spot.
