I've been enjoying McMillan's for well over 20 years, so this review is long overdue. Their…read moreclassic, chocolate frosted donut is an unrivaled masterpiece: it perfectly straddles the line between dense and fluffy, and the donut itself (not counting the delicious chocolate fudge frosting) isn't actually that sweet, unlike many modern competitors. Their Boston creme with chocolate frosting is also one of the best I've ever had of that variety. Apple cider and pumpkin are two of their absolute best seasonal flavors. McMillan's does NOT do weird gimmicky donuts with fruity pebbles or bacon or lord-knows-what-else on top. They just make damn good old-school donuts and pastries. There's a reason that Michael Solomonov and Steve Cook specifically called out McMillan's donuts as some of the best in the country. While donuts are the cornerstone of this family-run bakery, McMillan's offers so much more than that. One of their lesser-known gems is the tea biscuit with raisins - just crumbly, buttery perfection. Their cakes are never disappointing, and they do an excellent job with decorating them (if that's something you want - if so, just call ahead). They make pretty good seasonal pies, as well. The fruit-filled danishes are great, and they do a nice job with their muffins and sticky buns. We've also gotten dinner rolls before, and they were solid (although with Del Buono's and Deluxe nearby, the roll competition is stiff!). I LOVE bakeries and I visit them wherever I travel. When it comes to donuts, very few (perhaps none) have stood up to McMillan's in terms of overall quality and value. I will be utterly devastated if this place ever closes.

He will also sometimes eat a glazed with vanilla on top but that's it. I'm the told opposite. The more loaded and frosted, the better.

It's a very cool experience walking into Del Buono's Bakery with the bread-making machine being the…read moremain focal point of the room. Tons of fresh bread smells fill the air, and carts are loaded with different baked goods throughout the space. However, the conveyor belt that hangs above does drop constant bread flakes, and the floor becomes very slippery, which is a legitimate safety concern. With so many carts full of product sitting out, it does make you wonder how long some of the baked goods have been left out. I ordered three large subs online the day before to be prepped for a birthday party we were headed to in Atlantic City the following day. Unfortunately, the staff didn't realize this on their end, and the pickup got extended to 15-20 minutes later with extra help from the back. I think with the rushed work needed, the sandwiches suffered from this. There wasn't much meat and cheese at the end of the sandwiches, and the flavors were just okay, nothing special. The donuts ended up being a little hard with a sort of wet feeling to them. The regular cheesecake slice tasted more like cottage cheese and not much like normal cheesecake, which was disappointing. For a bakery with such a long-standing reputation in the community, I expected better quality control, especially for a pre-ordered party order.

You can find Dottie's Donuts at some businesses around Philadelphia (Elixr Coffee for instance) but…read morethe real experience comes from visiting their actual shop. Dottie's Donuts is all vegan. Great, this means very basic flavors right? Uh, no. They offer a wide variety of flavors that would make non vegan donut shops blush. During my visit they had flavors that were flowery (matcha, hibiscus), desserty (cheesecake), filled and fruity (lemon, mixed berry). I ordered a half dozen of a variety of flavors. I loved all that I ordered. The texture and flavors had me convinced that I wasn't eating vegan. That's how comparable they were to their dairy filled brethren. Even my kids, who aren't vegan, ate the donuts I got for them without making comments about how they are "daddy style" donuts. The six donuts were reasonably priced compared to other vegan donuts I've had. They honestly weren't too far off what I pay for non vegan donuts for the family. Also ordered a matcha latte during my visit which was very good. If you are vegan, Dottie's Donuts is a must visit when in Philadelphia.
