    If you are in Springfield and need donuts, well, this is THE place. They have history behind them, have been around since the 30's, enough said..If a place can stay in business for 5 years, it is usually pretty good. This place has been here for generations now. Wasn't wild about the coffee I had, it was lacking flavor. But the donuts were good. The staff was super nice, and despite a small crowd, the line moved fast.

    The donuts were okay. Nothing very special. Of course there were no jelly donuts when I went so I just tried the regular ones.

    Best donuts anywhere in town! Don't drive all the way to other stores and wait to know when donuts are done, Mel-O-Cream is perfect all day!

    Great little place but only gets three stars because when we got there at 9:30 they had few selections and very few donuts left.

    Dropped in because of the name, not disappointed. I do enjoy a pun. Nice selection of savory…read morebaked goods, got some lunch type stuff to go which warmed up easily in a microwave in my hotel. Liked it so much, returned to get road trip snacks the next day when we left town. Friendly service without the usual annoying "I'll help whose next in line," or "would you like a receipt today?" or worst of all, "Have a nice rest of your day." Instead I got a plain English, "hello," and "thank you." I do so like my baked goods with good, clear, communication, especially before coffee is on board.

    My son and I are bakery enthusiasts. We look up a couple bakeries in the towns we travel to and…read morewe pick one and go taste the treats. I don't like to give low ratings to local establishments, but sometimes it's just that bad. We were intrigued by the F*ck cookies and the interesting pastry flavors. $41 + tip was spent on 4 of the most tasteless cookies I have ever eaten in.my.life. Honestly, I'm a "for fun" baker at best and my teens thought my sugar cookies were/are heaps above these. The icing, which I feel may have had too much meringue in them to help set. They freaking cracked when biting into the flavorless cookie. I urge you to seriously rethink this recipe. I got the guava Danish, this was actually good. One son (the other bakery enthusiast) got the ube cheesecake. He will eat ALL THINGS ube. He said it tasted like nothing. And the other son got the black mass cheesecake and he didn't have any complaints, but he's also not a bakery snob like us. Very disappointed to spend that much money on really bad sweets.
