We got half a dozen, 4 day old common raisin bagels, and an apple fritter for 18$. The woman who helped us was so accommodating. My daughter wanted a vanilla frosted but they had none on the shelf so she made her one! The birds best donut has Cadbury eggs on top and it is so delicious, as you can see I devoured half before the picture. The donuts are soft and fresh. Overall this is a great donut shop and we can't wait to come back!!

We stopped in today, because we were headed out to citrus county, and this place was on the way…read more Ive seen it, but Im never there when they are open. Anyway, that changed today when the Husbeastie and I stopped in for a quick brunch. This is a small shop, run by one or two people, so orders of food take time as they are made individually. Today, I got a fluffy Bavarian Cream donut, and loaded Avacado toast, my hubby got a smash burger with perfect tots! (They were perfectly crisp and salty. Perfect!) The donut, Ill be honest I was expecting dry and very little filling, ala Dunkin, but No! Thos was a deliciius, tender dough, and LOTS of filling! It was a decadent experience. My loaded avocado toast, and it was not at all what I expected, it was better! Instead of just mashed avocado, it was a thick piece of multi grain bread, spread with cream cheese, salad mix, and sliced avocado, with 2 eggs any style. I asked for scrambled, dry and they were perfect. Honestly its several hours later and I'm still thinking about that donut.

Get in line early enough for fresh, light, fluffy donuts! Great service too. When they run out you…read morewill be out of luck until next time.

So I've been told get here early or don't even bother and that's exactly what we did and I must say these are definitely some of the best donuts in the state as they are hot fresh and just classic but definitely with their own unique style. So the blueberry cake donut was definitely my favorite as it was super flavorful with blueberry donut goodness as well as a yummy icing on top to set the vibe to the donut goodness one could totally get again and again! The jelly donut was awesome like it's up there with one of the best ones I've ever had as the flavors were totally there and just a perfect doughnut from start to finish. So we are suckers for apple fritters and we totally had to get one to try and I must say while it was good it wasn't my favorite as these I'm very picky with as I love them flat and really crispy and not everyone does them this way so I can't knock them for their own style and besides it was definitely good for what it was just not the go to one for me! There straight up is only a window in the door a true hole in the wall where you pick what you want from the window with a nice lady helping us she was very quick to get the line down! If you plan on using a card to pay they to charge you a fee so just plan accordingly or bring cash to avoid it! Overall if you live in the area you should totally come here if your traveling takes you through Ocala you should come here and if your just looking for good donuts yes you should come here so get the grease sponge recipe ready for whoever comes next!

I actually found out about Queen of Cakes from an ad on Facebook. What intrigued me the most was…read morethat she offers Keto baked goods. Great for those people like my husband and I watching their carbohydrate intake. My husband who loves sweets had to give them up when he became a severe diabetic and misses them so much. With Queen of Cakes keto baked items he can have an occassional treat without raising his blood sugar significantly. Queen of Cakes also offers delicious regular baked items plus beautifully decorated cakes for special occasions. She also bakes savory items such as biscuits, rolls, mini pizzas, take and bake pizza dough plus pepperoni pizza rolls. Queen of Cakes is a small business but the owner/ baker bakes an impressive amount and variety of baked goods. Beautifully baked and decorated there's something for everybody in her bakery cases. I love the fact that she sells pieces of cake along with her numerous cupcakes. Whenever I go my husband warns me don't overspend because quite frankly everything in her bakery just calls out to me! I do hope you will try our hidden gem of a bakery here in Crystal River and support a small business whose owner is wonderful and will do anything to make her customers happy!

This place is great!…read more The service is always very outgoing and friendly; I am picky about my hot chocolate, and they'll make it with unsweetened cocoa powder to allow me to sweeten it to my own taste - that's outgoing! The pastries are all made in-house (except for the cookies), and they are actually very good; they are tasty without being overly sweet or oily. I had the steak omelet during the weekend brunch menu hours, and my bf had the french-toast-stuffed Belgian waffle; they were both delicious, especially the waffle. They expanded a few years ago into the space next door making it an even nicer place to meet friends or use a laptop to get some work done. I do have one minor nitpick: they use non-dairy whipped cream; I wish they'd use the real stuff. And the best part is that overall value high since everything is pretty reasonably priced.

Specifically had the raspberry and chocolate croissants and was very happy with both. Raspberry croissant was super flaky with a nice cream and jelly inside. Little messy to eat, but delicious and not too sweet. The chocolate croissant was also very good and both pastries were large. Price for both was a little steep but given size, quality, and being at WEC it really wasn't bad. Coffee was also pretty good with the price surprisingly reasonable be given its location. Place was fairly busy but the line moved quickly so it wasn't an issue. If you're looking for a nice pastry and coffee I would definitely repeat if you're at or near WEC.
