    Maple bacon, chocolate sprinkles, strawberry cake with nuts, sugar, glazed, and cinnamon crunch
    Clara R.

    The atmosphere was fine. But the donuts were really disappointing. We went in around 2PM, which could've affected how fresh the donuts were. But the time shouldn't have also impacted the taste. The bacon on the maple bacon donuts was incredibly stale. The chocolate lacked flavor. The strawberry tasted cheap and artificial. The only three that were remotely fine were the sugar, glazed, and cinnamon crunch. And even those weren't anything worth bragging about. Unfortunately wouldn't recommend and wouldn't return.

    I don't live close but every time I pass by I have to stop if I'm early enough in the day! The workers are all super sweet and the donuts are sooo good! Just a tip, go early if you want the most selection. They can sell out fast!

    So big they won't fit in the box. And yes that's maple bacon!

    Donuts are always great from there. My kids enjoy getting the ice cream as well. I love a good local spot and this one is perfect.

    The place was packed but they were really efficient!…read more I bought 2 dozen for the family and the total was just under $74! The cashier was sweet and patient with every guest. One side of the shop has the equipment for the donut making and the other side they are filling orders. It had a classic feel. Excited to bring them back to the family!

    We were so excited to try this donut shop after seeing great photos online, but unfortunately our…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing. From the moment we walked in, the shop appeared very dirty and poorly maintained. The smell of old grease was overwhelming, and the cleanliness of the store immediately raised concerns. What made the experience even worse was the customer service. As soon as we entered, the employee spoke to us in a rude, snarky, and confrontational tone. Instead of politely saying something like, "Please keep the door shut," or "We'd appreciate it if the door remained closed," she immediately asked, "Did someone tell you to prop that door open?" The wording and delivery came across as unnecessarily hostile and unwelcoming. It instantly made us feel uncomfortable, and the tension in the store seemed noticeable to others as well. We came in genuinely excited to support a local business, but between the condition of the shop and the way we were treated, we decided not to stay. First impressions matter, and unfortunately this was one of the most unpleasant customer service experiences we've had. I hope the owners take steps to improve both the cleanliness of the establishment and the way customers are greeted and treated. Based on the photos online, we expected a completely different experience.

    Best donuts around! Kids loved them, they were a nice treat for the beginning of a great beach day!read more

    Despite a couple scathing reviews I've written over the years, I really try hard to only do good…read moreYelp reviews simply because posting a bad review unfairly is playing with a person's livelihood. That being said, I feel like this review should be viewed more as a public service announcement. Call it what you want, it ain't good, but neither are these donuts, so there's that... Just this morning, my wife asked me what kind of donuts I wanted, and my exact response was, "I don't care. A bad donut is better than a good bagel any day, so get me whatever." About 30 minutes later, I was proven wrong AND introduced to the only bad donut I've ever eaten. First of all, understand going into this place that chaos theory is their business model. By that I mean this: whatever your vision of a "donut" is, flip it upside down and inside out, and then make it all way more complex and intricate than it needs to be, and that's what you're going to get here. If the idiomatic phrase "too clever by half" were a donut place, it would be this donut place because they take a simple donut and turn it into a Rube Goldberg device that just isn't as good as it is complex. As far as texture goes, think of a donut in your head. Whatever your favorite is, think of that. You may think of sweet, dense, cakey donuts capable of holding tons of toppings (think Dunkin), or you may think of the uber-sweet, light-and-fluffy donuts glazed and hot off the conveyor belt (think Krispy). Now that you've pictured that, mash them both up together. Take a cake donut and treat it like a "hot off the belt" donut while frying it in oil that's too cold so it absorbs too much grease. Cakey donuts and Krispy donuts, they aren't the same, friends, and they shouldn't be treated the same because what you're going to get if you do is nothing like the donut in your head. Next, flavor-wise, understand that these donuts are basically made from slightly more dense pancake batter. That's it, and not much sweeter I might add, and definitely nothing special. Here's where the whole thing goes off the rails though. They take all of these steaming round rings of run-of-the-mill and douse them with thin coats of whatever you want on them, and none of whatever they're putting on these convoluted collars of cake ends up as a solid covering; it all turns to a puddle of liquid disaster surrounding this so-called donut. You want a Boston cream? Well, they douse the whole thing in a watery chocolate glaze and slap a dollop of vanilla pudding into the hole of said disappointment. There! Done! You want a maple bacon donut? Well, kiss the maple goodbye, glaze it with something watery and too sweet, sprinkle it with sugar, and throw some bacon on top. There! Done! All in all, these were just really bad donuts that tasted like pancakes (I love pancakes, but these wouldn't even qualify as decent pancakes!). I'm sure it's a local novelty, and I'm sure they have cultivated a cult following of good ole southern Karens, Kens, and their kids, but I'm also sure their product doesn't live up to the definition of what a donut is in its most basic form. I have to assume they have survived because they are the only donut shop in the area, and they have the market cornered. I won't be a repeat customer, but good luck to you if you choose to try these, and I hope they're better than the two boxes I have that are going down for the dog to eat the second my wife turns her back.
