Now that is too many for just me to have so I took some orders from friends so I could bring some back. I have never had to wait in a long line at this location so I keep going back. The service here is always top notch. I got my dozen donuts and then I ordered a breakfast sandwich too. Everything bagel with sausage, egg, and cheese is the best and they did a great job on it. I added in some cream cheese and it was perfect. The parking here is super easy with it being in the front of the plaza and the vibes are great whether you eat there or take it to go. These donuts are the best in town and will be until further notice.

I love that there is one close to where my parents live (and also located in the convenient area of the Southgate Plaza). Plenty of parking right in front of the store and easy to get into and out of. They are almost always busy, so expect at least a little bit of a wait. They have a large selection and variety of donuts and they are fresh and sizeable. They also have other treats like cinnamon rolls and bagels. There is also a separate check out for things like smoothies (and they have a wide variety of those as well). The inside is bright, festive and clean. There are also several photo opps if that is your thing. They are more pricey than other options (like the bakery in Market in the Square right next door) but you do get quality ingredients and it makes a difference in the taste. Highly recommend a visit here if you love donuts.

So many freshly baked, tasty options, many things you won't find at other grocery stores. For example, they often have Polish treats like the sour cream cheese cake and Placek. They have tasty donuts, cakes, cookies and vanilla pastry hearts. The bakery staff is always kind and have a lot of attention to detail in their work. The fish fry is fantastic as well! Several different options (fried fish, baked fish, shrimp, breaded scallops and combo platters) You get a lot of food for the price and it is always crisp and not soggy. The rest of the store has an old school grocery store look and vibe to it without looking or feeling dingy or outdated. There are often lines for checkout because there just aren't that many registers, but overall, it is a great place for your dessert needs!

I remember biting into a crispy on the outside but also fluffy Apple cider donut which really hit the spot. I stopped by at Duke's Donuts today at the NT Farmer's Market. For $10, you get 13 donuts which is a steal! The Apple Cider donuts were as amazing as I remembered them to be! Hands down, one of the best Apple Cider donuts I've had. They had a nice apple flavor to it and weren't overly sweet like other ones I've had. I also had the original sugared donuts. This was my first time having one of them. I really like how fluffy they were but they tasted a little boring and didn't have much flavor to them. Overall, I'm a huge fan of Duke's Donuts.

At the end, we got in line and ordered 10 donuts to bring home. We got 6 apple cider and 4 sugar donuts. We were all so excited because last week we had delicious donut's from a local farm. These donuts were SO disappointing! We got in the car and the bag with the apple cider donuts was leaking grease onto the seat of my car. My son tasted a sugar donut, which was also greasy, but not as bad as the apple cider, and they didn't really have a flavor. The apple cider donuts had a nice taste but were so greasy that they gave us all an instant stomach ache and are now just sitting on the counter. Maybe they were made with old grease? Or it wasn't hot enough? But I've never had this experience before. I'm really disappointed because it's tough to get the kids out to do something like this, and we can't even eat them. I feel like I wasted $25!

Eileen's CenterView Bakery Inc. - 465 Center Road West Seneca Personal Impressions of the baked goods after sampling a few items. THREE STARS OUT OF SIX. With a star rating of three out of six if you actually go to Eileen's you will encounter a bakery that is situated in a leased space within a plaza. Once inside you will see display cases full of cakes, pastries, and breads. The bakery does offer quite a variety of these treats so I am not going to hold the aesthetics against them by any means. I remember in the day when you bought cream filled doughnuts the filling was actually whipped cream!!! I tried my luck with the flaky pastry dough cream horns I had seen in one of the display cases. I asked the person waiting on me if they used real whipped cream for the filling. She said no - the filling is the same as what we use for our doughnuts. Unfortunately today you are stuck with imitation cream filling. I then picked out two apple mini fruit pies and two mini cherry fruit pies. These items used the same flaky pastry dough. To complete my order or at least what I thought was a completed order was one fruit Danish. When I opened up the bakery box at home to my surprise I found two white cream doughnuts in addition to the items I had said I wanted. I never mentioned doughnuts at the bakery. The person waiting on me mentioned doughnuts and she must have had doughnuts on the mind as she was picking out the items to put in the box. The flaky pastry dough used for the cream horns was ok I have had better. For the mini fruit pies the flaky pastry dough did not work. I have had much better flaky pastry dough turnovers than these flaky pastry dough mini fruit pies. Three of the four flaky pastry dough mini fruit pies did not have adequate filling. They were very dry to eat. The fruit Danish was ok. Ironically the best items were the creamed filled doughnuts that I did not request. The doughnut dough was very good and the filling was plentiful. The ok flaky pastry dough items, the ok fruit Danish and the good doughnuts resulted in a RECOMMENDATION WITH CAUTION for this bakery to go along with the three stars. read more

The staff here are wonderful, I feel so welcomed when I walk in and I think I've gotten to know them pretty well. I really look forward to coming in and having a chat each time I stop by to satisfy my sweet tooth. My go-to's are the Cookies & Cream mini cheesecake, Mud Pie mini cheesecake, and their Chocolate Chip Pie slice! If you're a red velvet cake-lover like I am, stop by around February for their Red Velvet mini cheesecake! Their scones are soft and muffin-like (they call their scones "scuffins") and if you're there on a Saturday morning, get one of their cinnamon rolls as it's coming out the oven - It's phenomenal! Looking at Taste of Buffalo 2026's socials, I saw Genevieve's was there and introduced a new cheesecake flavor: Strawberry Crunch! I usually don't go to Taste of Buffalo so I was really glad to see Genevieve's was continuing to sell it in their shop. I picked up a Strawberry Crunch mini cheesecake as well as an old favorite, their Mud Pie mini cheesecake for weekend of indulgent treats. I've swooned on about their Mud Pie flavor so I'll skip that and go straight to my Strawberry Crunch mini cheesecake review - In short, I REALLY enjoyed this! The graham cracker crust pairs nicely with the vanilla cheesecake and those creamy strawberry crumbly-bits. This encapsulated the flavor and texture of that classic ice cream novelty nicely! The mini cheesecakes are dense, a nice treat you can share (or not, I don't share mine :) ). I'm glad to see that their pricing has remained incredibly reasonable as well.

My daughter declared the loganberry her favorite, while my one son couldn't get enough of the coconut slice (really it's amaretto). As for me, I think I'll just have to keep eating more cheesecake before I can confidently pick a favorite!

If you have a specific thing you want to pick up I'd call in advance to make sure she has it that day or can make it for you.
