THE. BEST. SPONGY. DELICIOUS. DONUT. CART. EVER. Ok so I absolutely love this place. We found out about it through the locals. The owner operates right from her property and makes the most phenomenal yummy spongy fluffy donuts ever. So worth it!!! Absolutely awesome owner and just the best local spot for donuts. Only downside: its almost a 3 hour drive for me. Worth it? Forever! If you're in the area make sure to check them out! Pairs well with a nice cider (argyle brewing right a few steps away). Coffee would be great but nothing local as of now.. bummer!

Donuts, pastries, scones, oh my... #kingsdonutcart #kingsdonutscambridgeny

Oh my, this is a must stop, if you are in Cambridge, NY, on a Sunday morning. Extremely friendly family and even though the line might be long it moves pretty quickly. The donut cart is is perfect and brings back that old time feeling. Now, their donuts. The King's make the absolute BEST donuts and pastries in the country. Seriously, you cannot have just one donut. My favorite is their classic glazed donut, their Bismarck is so good too., they are all good lol I do wish they would make their famous donut holes. They made them when I was a kid at their bakery, rolled in granulated sugar, fresh and warm. Yum!

Donut cart!!

Stopped here because we heard about the hype. Now if you know us you know we love donuts. We were so excited about this place. The cart is adorable and the people were so kind, even waiting in line to get them was fun. We got several donuts. I bit into my first donut and it was a glaze and it immediately told me that the oil needed to be changed. Also it was so so dark, fried too long. My husband said the same thing for the apple fritter as well. The cheese danish, the chocolate croissant and the cinnamon roll were perfect. But everything fried was really disappointing. Hope this gets back to the owners so they can hear this. Hope to get back again to try again!

Best. Donuts. Ever. I have heard my coworker rave about these donuts for 6 years. We finally had the perfect timing to stop in Cambridge driving from NH to WNY and it did not disappoint! All our donuts were soft, chewy, and so fresh! They had such a large selection and although there was a line, (always a good sign) it moved very quick. I highly recommend anyone taking a little detour on their trip to stop here on a Sunday morning. You will not be upset you did.

It is my most sincere pleasure to be the first to review this absolutely stunning institution in Cambridge, NY. I am troubled that no words I can write could do any sort of justice to this wondrous little bakery cart that sits on West Main, but I will describe it regardless. The world must know about what King Bakery does. Every Sunday and Monday morning, the King family produce astonishingly delicious donuts and baked goods from the bakery/kitchen of their stately home. As soon as trays of these wondrous creations are done, they're walked out to a small, burgundy cart set up right at the roadside where they are sold. The Kings churn out apple fritters, bismarcks, and filled donuts, as well as apple pie bars and other delights. It is a labor of love, and this love is apparent in every bite you take. Something as simple as a glazed donut is bright and flavorful, with a great consistency and a perfect layer of icing. But the more complex items (like those fritters and apple bars) showcase the skill of this baking clan even more - nuanced balances of spices and sweetness, amazing textures, wonderfully fresh ingredients. The locals are quite aware of this little gem, and the lines can stretch ten or fifteen back as the residents of Cambridge, NY know that the Kings will sell out by mid-afternoon. Though this idyllic berg boasts breathtaking views of the Green Mountains and serene and endless farmland, the most beautiful snapshot you can take is one of the cupcakes and donuts sitting in neat rows waiting to be eaten by hungry and appreciative customers. What you see when you look at King Bakery is what makes this little corner of the world so good - local people doing something they love and sharing it with the rest of their town, without fuss and without fame. Sitting in Cambridge is a slice of perfection, and its very existence reminds us that magic can be found in something as common as waiting in line with your neighbors for something sweet.

Variety! Maple frosted is my favorite.

Finally made it to this place yesterday, and was not disappointed. I'd been craving a good donut ever since I moved to the east coast....15 years ago! A bit of an exaggeration, sure, but it's not easy to find a non-Dunkin donut in these parts. King Bakery keeps it simple, with less than a dozen varieties all done to perfection. My particular favorites are the maple frosted, lemon filled, and plain glazed. Plan to wait in line for approx. 30 minutes, it's worth it!

At the start of 2024, we treated my mother-in-law to a donut treasure map road trip in CDNY,…read moretraveling to a half-dozen different bakeries to pick out donuts to indulge in for a birthday celebration like none-other. I read MANY blogs, yelp reviews, and social media updates to compile the list of places to check out, and I was surprised that a little spot I had never heard of before called Schuyler Bakery continued to pop up in my research. I knew we needed to make it one of the stops on the donut tour, and it was 100% the right decision. These donuts were out of this world delicious. The exact right texture and mouthfeel I personally want out of a donut. Sweet, but not too sweet that you can't enjoy every last morsel. I also loved the variety available... maybe 10 different donuts all together at the after-lunch part of the day, all classics and nothing dripping in over-frosted goo or crazy toppings. These are the donuts that donuts are named after. We will definitely travel out to Watervliet to visit the small, old school vibes kinda bakery for a dozen or so of these again. A++.

This place is kind of sad. The baked goods weren't displayed in a remotely appealing way. Cupcakes…read morewere upside down in the displays, pastries were scattered everywhere, half the items weren't even labeled, and at least 50% of the display cases were empty. Everything pretty much tasted bland with not much flavor. The oatmeal raisin cookie, cinnamon bread, and cinnamon sugar donut were just not worth the calories. The cinnamon sugar donuts were the worst as they were incredibly dense and tasted stale. There's street parking and the employees were judgey, but friendly enough.

If you want a taste of both, you can order the "cider sammich", which is the homemade hot cider donut sliced in half and filled with and topped with the maple creemee!! Plus, they offer gluten free cones, no extra charge, and their prices are very reasonable!! They even offer a baby cone, but I guarantee if you get one of these, you'll go back in for a second! We make sure to visit for a maple creemee every fall! It's also a little gift shop with maple syrup and other fun things to look at or buy! So much fun!

Time for another review. The creemees are a bit larger than last year it seems, and the prices are…read morestill super-reasonable. No surprises at the Sugar Shack, a delightful trip through rural NY and South-Western Vermont, albeit 40 plus miles one way for us. Been there perhaps a dozen times since 2024, still have found nothing that would make me even think about a rating less than 5 stars. I am a picky, demanding, relatively hard to please customer. I believe that the key to running a business is consistency. Run whatever kind of business you want to run but be consistent. The customer has a right to know what to expect next time, after his first visit . Any business can hit it just right and deliver a world class experience once; the key to a steady 5 star rating is to deliver that time and time again. Sugar Shack does exactly that. Their creemees are, quite simply put, perfect. First time, third time, eighth time, twelfth time. Never varying in intense maple flavor that tastes just like syrup right out of the jug. Never poor consistency. Always, always, thick and creamy and substantial. I did notice one difference late last summer; the size of the large cones increased a bit with no corresponding price increase. Prices for the creemees are super reasonable. Five of us went there the other day and the bill was pennies over $20. Two larges, 3 smalls. For a premium quality cone filled with plenty of ice cream, being sold in a touristy area, that is phenomenal. Don't like ice cream? What the heck is wrong with you???? :) Nevertheless, their apple cider donuts, especially the cinnamon coated version, are really good. Always fresh, and much less greasy than the genre is known for. Not heartburn, no disgusting grease soaked bag on the way home, just plain great flavor and freshness. Time for a bit of a ramble. These people, and their business, are real. The two young ladies that run the store are charming and efficient. They are nice to customers because they are nice people, not because there is a tip jar on the counter. I have been on enough cruises and eaten in enough restaurants in my 76 years to have developed a pretty accurate sense of someone being phony because they are in a tipped position, and being blunt, this ain't that. It would seem that the key to the Sugar Shack for me is the realness, the staff, the creemees. Somehow though there is more. They have a wonderful tree shaded side yard with old fashioned picnic tables. Those tables outside, so unassuming, so very not fancy, so utterly 'country', just fit perfectly with the trees and the overall rural ambiance. Going there is relaxing and brings me back to being a much much younger version of myself. Born and raised in NYC, at 14 the family moved to a town in Upstate NY with a population of 1200. Sugar Shack brings back memories of little roadside ice cream places and snack bars and a slower, more peaceful, just plain better time. The owner and her staff (relatives if I understand correctly) are providing a lot more than ice cream and maple syrup and assorted delicious premium treats and foodstuffs. They are bringing us back in time to when business was interactions between people, not transactions with a multi-national corporation. Well done, ladies, well done.

One of my favorite places for a yearly fall family tradition! Apple season means apple picking,…read moreapple cider donuts, hard cider & fun for the entire gang. Feeding & visiting the goats is always a hit for the kids. Depending on when you go, you can sometimes expect a bounce house, pony rides, food vendors, live music etc. The donut line can get absurdly long but it's never too long of a wait for those local-favorite cider donuts! The donuts are always fresh & warm & otherworldly delicious. The barn also offers many local treats, apple cider, fresh eggs & veggies, fudge, honey, handmade products & so much more. Look up to see the train hanging from the ceiling! Slyboro Ciderhouse is usually serving hard cider, beer on tap, cocktails etc.

SERVICE-DOG DISCRIMINATION…read more I arrived with my trained service dog. Don, the parking attendant, told me my service dog could not leave my vehicle, claiming federal food-safety laws prohibited it. I explained that my dog is a service animal and that the ADA specifically addresses this issue that service dogs are exempt. I was directed to management. I spoke with Kim, the Cider House manager, and directed her to the U.S. Department of Justice ADA website, including the information explaining that food-safety rules do not provide a blanket exception to exclude service animals. They were given the federal guidance. They chose to ignore it. She contacted the owner. The owner's "solution" was that I could drive my car into the orchard..but my service dog had to remain inside the car not with me My service dog is necessary to mitigate my disability. A service dog locked inside a vehicle cannot perform those disability-related functions for me while I am outside the vehicle. That is not equal access. I told them directly that I believed I was being discriminated against. I told them I had three witnesses and that I would be filing a federal discrimination complaint. Their response? They were comfortable with that .....and believed they had done nothing wrong. What happened was humiliating and deeply upsetting. I went to Hicks Orchard expecting to participate like everyone else. Instead, I was singled out because of my disability and told that the service animal I rely on could not accompany me. A service animal sitting in a car cannot mitigate a disability. Equal access means being able to use the service animal I rely on...not being told I am not allowed to use assistance to mitigate my disability. We have been a team for over 6 years and travel alot internationally. We are well versed in these experiences and try to politely educate others. When we encounter people who aren't fully aware of service dog access rights, we are typically met with understanding once we show them ADA laws. Hicks refused to even consider they may misunderstand federal laws. I hope they will become more educated on ADA public access rights for service dogs to avoid excluding those with disabilities and the impact it has on their life's. We unfortunately left and will not return. our family has been visiting Hicks for years as a family tradition. our family and service dog was welcomed with open arms down the road at McWhorter's Orchard and had a great time there instead. we will continue our family tradition there moving forward.

Rating: 4.3 Came to…read morestop by for breakfast/snack. It's a local donut shop that serves specialized donuts, drinks and some sandwich options as well. It's open early so we stopped by on the way into vermont after staying in the area. There is parking available in front of the store. There is no sign at the plaza but there is LED donut shop sign and wooden sign at the front of the shop. Inside is small and there are no seatings so everyone seemed to be coming to pick up their orders. Inside is decorated with lots of different colors and really gives off LGBTQ vibe. They offer lots of specialized donut options. I ended up getting apple cider cake and maple praline matcha drink. My donut was nice and sweet, crunchy and flavorful. My drink was creamy and slightly sweet matcha flavor was nice and light. Only thing that could have been better is if the donut could be warmer. Especially with apple cider donut it would have tasted better slightly warm. May be good to offer option to heat it up for customers at least those that are eating right after purchase there. Service was good and the staff were very nice and welcoming. It wasn't too busy so we didn't had to wait much. Overall it's a nice donut shop with good donuts and drinks. Curious how the sandwiches are which i'm interested maybe next time if there are opportunity. Overall a solid place.
