This review is for the bread alone because I do not often try their pastries, sandwiches and other…read moreofferings. The bread itself is average to above average depending on the loaf of the day. But its consistently troubling issue is the large amount of flour caked on and baked on the outside of the loaves. They use an extreme amount of flour on the raw dough as a release from their baking baskets, and after the bake they just leave it all stuck to the loaf. When I bring a loaf home I often spend a few minutes smacking it and scraping it over the sink where I dislodge so much raw flour from the outside of the bread. Sometimes there's a rind of undercooked flour cemented to the outside of the loaf. This is wildly unacceptable.

I had just seen Donut Dip pop up in an online article as the best donut place in Massachusetts and so I had to stop. Donut Dip is an old school donut shop, a large selection of a wide variety of flavors are on display. The short line moved quickly and I ordered an Apple Fritter and a Chocolate topped custard stick for the road. The price was a bit higher than I expected but the donuts were big and looked great and I wanted some food for the road so I didn't have to stop. The Apple Fritter was good, however it seemed to be a bit light on actual apple piece and while tasty it just wasn't anything special. The Custard stick was excellent, the custard was rich and luscious which nicely balanced the perfectly fried donut, the topping was thick and chocolaty giving the donut an old school feel. Although I didn't have a long visit I would say that overall Donut Dip has very good to great donuts. The shop feels classic and if I was nearby I would love to try some of the other flavors. Well worth a stop to check them out.

Very cozy old fashioned donut shop. As a donut lover, I had to get one of my faves (old fashioned) and I asked the staff for their recommendation and went with the honey cruller. I'd actually never had this before but my husband and I both took a bite and decided it tasted like sweet corn dog breading and we weren't mad at it! This spot was tiny and bustling but they move the line quickly. Not in Springfield often anymore but would recommend it to anyone in the area! No indoor seating and a small parking lot in the back.

I started the day with a toasted bagel with cream cheese. I thought it was going to be jalapeno cream cheese but it ended up being cream cheese topped with jalapenos. Okay, different but still good. Lunch was a ham and cheese sandwich that was nicely loaded and served with fabulous kettle chips. Filling and inexpensive. Wifi worked well and the place was quiet enough all day that I was able to work easily. A few Zoom calls here and there, comfortable. I would absolutely return to Dam Cafe.

I chose the Argentinian Beef which she said came with olives & rasins & the Brazilian Calabresa which I was Informed was filled with smoky brazilian sausage & a creamy parm-like cheese named catupiry. Despite all of their wonderful alcoholic drink options, I went for coffee. I am also going to carry out a loaf of bread that they can slice for you once it cools.. yup, it's that fresh & a fig pecan oatmeal cookie because they also look & sound delicious. Apparently they have a million playlists (this guy can Dj any party of mine) & the owner has the resteraunt logo showing up in the corner of the TV screen, where the videos are playing. Smart I give the Tacos a 4.5 out of 5. The flavor was bright (perfect fusion experience) the shell was a grilled flour wrap which was both crispy on the outside & tender & chewy on the inside. The meat was tender, but the texture was slightly mealy from the seasoning but still very good. The Empanadas were delicious. A 10 out of 5.. LoL! The server said some people are put off by the Argentinian ingredients, it was her favorite & I found nothing wrong with the flavor profile. However, the Brazilian one stole the show. The minute I cut into it I was overwhelmed by the smell of heaven.. Seriously, if heaven has a smell, it was this tiny empanada! It was too good to put into words, so youre just going to have to come experience it. Come. Eat! You wont regret it! I will be back to try their winter salad & then again for the ruben & i will have friends in tow. I 100% recommend this place. Our server was Coco & not only was she delightful but so knowledgeable about Holyoaks revitization & happenings. I truly enjoyed speaking with her.

Hey sooo they're illegally charging you over 3% for using a debit or credit card. If you pay by cash, you pay what the total bill is. If you pay by debit/card, they UPCHARGE you. This is illegal under Mass General Law, Chapter 140D, Section 28A "With respect to a credit card which may be used for extensions of credit in sales transactions in which the seller is a person other than the card issuer, the card issuer may not, by contract or otherwise, prohibit any such seller from offering a discount to a cardholder to induce the cardholder to pay cash, check or similar means rather than use a credit card.

(b) With respect to any sales transaction, any discount from the regular price offered by the seller for the purpose of inducing payment by cash, check or other means not involving the use of an open-end-credit plan or a credit card shall not constitute a finance charge under section four if such discount is offered to all prospective buyers and its availability is disclosed clearly and conspicuously."
