They had a pretty decent variety of donuts available, considering the time I went (3pm on a Monday). That being said, the fruit loop donut I had this time was a bit stale (more so the doughnut, than the cereal). Overall, a perfectly fine stop if you're in the area and have a sweet tooth. Just don't expect greatness.

There are a couple of tables outside and inside. We got a dozen donuts to take home. These are our ratings on the ones we tried: Glazed devil's food chocolate cake donut: 3.5 stars. This is a decent cake donut. Nothing super special or exciting, nothing unpleasant about it. Strawberry sprinkle: 3 stars. Didn't have much strawberry flavor but the donut itself was good. Pumpkin spice coffee cake donut: 5 stars. This was delicious. No detractors to this donut whatsoever. Cinnamon roll: 4 stars. Pretty decent. Comparable to some of the better donut places out there. Definitely a good stop for donuts if you're in the area! Maple bacon: 4.5 stars. Bacon was still crunchy. Maple had good flavor. Great donut. Cinnamon crumb: 4.5 stars. Really good. Lots of cinnamon flavor. Great crunch. Vanilla cream custard cronut: 5 stars. Raspberry on top was lovely. Custard was delicious and well spread across the donut. Creme brulee: 4 stars. Donut was moist. Cream was good but not much of a crunch on the outside. Raspberry on top gets 5 stars.

The pumpkin spice is mixed into the powder sugar, so it's a nice and mild pumpkin flavor on a very sweet treat! This is a great spot for kids and families!

Everything arrived fresh and was exactly what I was hoping for. The big pink box was kind of exciting to get actually. The cronuts were absolutely delicious. I tried the seasonal mango-chili-lime flavor (or something close to that!), and wow--it was amazing. The combination of sweet, tangy, and just a little kick was perfect. I also tried the Birthday Cake cronut, and it was so good! I joked that I was glad I didn't have to wait until my birthday to enjoy it. The cream they use is incredible--rich & sweet.

The churro was solid--I'd rate it a 7/10, with a nice cinnamon sugar flavor. The crème brûlée donut was definitely the standout for me, I'd give it a 9/10. It had great flavor and was the better of the two. The girl at the front was very helpful and took the time to explain the different options, which I really appreciated. The inside of the shop is also really spacious, which I loved. it makes it a nice place to sit and hang out. That said, the overall quality was good but not amazing, and I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to come back. One downside was the parking situation, it's pretty tight out front and the curb is really high. I actually scraped the bottom of my car door when opening it, which was frustrating. Overall, a good place to try, especially for the crème brûlée donut, but just be careful with parking.

While the cashier didn't care if I lived or died after I told her how hard the decision was of choosing a pastry, i settled on a regular vanilla with vanilla icing.

The frosting was good but felt like it didn't go well with the cake for some reason. After looking at the photo I took i wish i had leaned for a more adventurous flavor, but I'm just thankful I didn't get their gluten free/vegan option on accident!

Ultimately this doesn't matter to me as I just want the ice cream. Today I was on my way to work and decided to treat myself to a coffee. Knowing that they're vegan, I thought non-dairy milk would be included. Nowhere was I able to find which milk was included in the price- so I asked for oat milk. I was charged NINTEY CENTS (.90) for an upcharge. Rather than saying oh it comes with soy milk, or hey it's a .90 cent upcharge, the barista just added it on no questions asked. I had reviewed the menu online and in the extras it does not include oat milk, which is why I assumed it came with it. My coffee ultimately came out to $9.16. What a joke. I will definitely not be coming back here for anything besides ice cream from here on out and even that is a hard maybe. I wish more places had pricing integrity- their website doesn't reflect it and neither did the barista. *edit to add the coffee is extremely sweet and milky, tastes more like sweet milk than a latte :(

The woman helping us was patient, knowledgeable, and happy to walk us through the menu, which made the experience feel approachable. I managed to snag the last crookie of the day, and honestly, I'd come back just for that! It's a croissant-cookie hybrid that hits the sweet spot between flaky and indulgent, with layers that pull apart like a pastry but still deliver that rich, cookie-like bite! The flavor balance was spot on too! Not too sweet! As for the cookies, they lean more soft and doughy rather than crisp. If you're someone who prefers that gooey, slightly underbaked center (think Crumbl-style), you'll be very happy here. The chocolate chip is a classic done right, sweet but not overwhelming, with a touch of salt that rounds everything out. The snickerdoodle also delivers, with that warm cinnamon-sugar profile you expect, executed really well. Overall, a super cute spot with thoughtful service and solid treats.
