    6 pk of donuts.
    Ahmad W.

    So I visited here once years ago when I didn't live in this area. I had to come back and visit since I'm in the local neighborhood not to far like 1.6 miles away. The first time I visited it might have been late in the evening not early in the morning at the time so I really don't remember what I got at the time and how good it was. This time I visited it was early in the morning and the donuts are delicious and fresh. Definitely worth the trip not a disappointment. I visited on 12-29-2025. I got a 6 pk of donuts.

    Ray's Donuts is fantastic! Fresh donuts and food, prepared and served quick at a great price point. Love that it's family owned.

    I stopped by a couple of times during a recent trip to Decatur and was pleased overall. The chocolate frosted raised donuts were light as you'd expect for a regular donut, the frosting a little on the sweet side and the frosting could use more chocolate. Beware as the frosting tends to crumble and fall off when you take a bite. The strawberry cheese croissant was disappointing, the strawberry seemed to be a mass produced strawberry flavored jelly of poor quality and no identifiable strawberry flavor. The pastry was delicate, but its features were overpowered by the disappointing flavor. The cheese filling wasn't much better. After a couple of bites, I tossed the rest of the croissant.

    I love mom and pop donut shops. This one in Decatur has some great selections. Of course they have an amazing classic glazed donut. Service starts early in the morning until they are out of donuts. They are made fresh each day. They have a diverse beverage selection ranging coffee, to Thai tea, and everything in between. Check the out if you're ever in the area!

    This perfect little spot is a great place to grab a small bite to go. They Have amazing breakfast items as well as donuts and coffee. The breakfast items are made fresh. The prices are perfect! There is no seating at all so it is just pick up and go no drive through either. The staff is so nice and friendly. Service was quick as well.

    Solid morning donut stop! Sometimes the best donut shops aren't the ones that try to get too fancy, but instead stick to the basics. That's what Ray's does, and boy oh boy do they do it well! These are the perfect accompaniment to a steaming cup of coffee. They had a great variety of cake and yeast donuts and also had multiple flavors of fritters, which you don't see everywhere!

    We went to Ray's Donuts at 11:45 am on a Monday. They had most of the donuts available, but they were running out - even on a Monday! So get there early! The person working was so sweet and patient! We ordered a half dozen, but she gave us one for free! She was wearing a mask, but masks are not required for customers. It's SO cheap! We got 6 donuts (plus the one for free) for $6.47! Here's what we got, in order of preference: - Cinnamon Sugar: Soo good. Perfection. - Blueberry Fritter: Very good!! - Glazed: Quality original donut! - Sour Cream: The one we got might've been a little overdone, burnt even, but I still liked the taste of it! - Boston Cream: The filling was good and I normally don't like filled donuts that much. - Chocolate Sprinkle: I didn't like the chocolate icing on top. Wouldn't recommend. - Strawberry Cake: Tasted very processed. Wouldn't recommend. Maybe the Blueberry Cake might've been better, but we didn't want to get two blueberry donuts. I definitely recommend Ray's Donuts! There are multiple locations, so find the one closest to you!

    I loved this place! They had a great amount of donuts everything smells very fresh, granted I did go in the morning so I would hope it smells very fresh. There is only one woman working there but luckily it wasn't busy. This place had Thai iced tea which I was very excited about, And I could alter the amount of sugar I wanted in it and usually when I drink Thai iced tea they tell me that I can't so this makes me give it a five star rating because I never had a chance to do that anywhere else except here. I had a red velvet doughnut which was great. Coffee was from coffee pot which is also hot and fresh. They had filled donuts but you're also a really really good. Also had a breakfast sandwich which was made to order, all of this took some time since it was only one person working there I'm sure that they have help now..Definitely worth stopping by for a snack!

    Very kind people working here. Service was very quick. All types of people stopping in for quick breakfast. Donuts were really good. Bacon egg and cheese on a bagel is wayy better than stop to any regular chain restaurants. Nice cut bacon and comes out quick and hot. Not very busy on a Wednesday morning. Relaxed energy.

    Finally a little place for a quick breakfast that isn't McDonald's on Candler RD. Great donuts, great prices and plenty of parking.

    There are real gems out there in Atlanta, often hidden away, far from the lens of influencers and…read moresnobby patrons. Cafe Alsace is one such discovery that belongs on the radar of those in the know. Having been around since 1997 and founded by a French immigrant, Benedicte Cooper, this is one of the more unique establishments focused on specific cuisine of Alsace region. Spectacular liver pate. Incredible Flammekueche flatbread. Ridiculously inexpensive selection of great wines, up charged at 1.5x retail. I mean, where does one find deals like that in today's market? The patio has a couple pleasantly setup tables. Sadly, as with most Atlanta patios, it is next to the relatively busy road, but it is what it is. With all this said, Cafe Alsace is a real winner when it comes to a casual French meal.

    I visited Cafe Alsace recently to enjoy a Valentine's Day dinner with my wife. It had the same…read moreauthentic, small cafe charm that I remembered from a prior visit years ago, but in a nice touch it was also all decked out for the holiday. As many restaurants do for Valentine's Day, they offered a prix fixe menu including a starter (wonderful chestnut soup), main (we chose a savory crepe with sautéed chicken), and dessert (a light raspberry puff pastry). Each course was delicious and accented by additional Valentine's touches (see photos). I'm not an expert on French cuisine but I can say the food is reminiscent of meals I've enjoyed traveling in France. Service was on point and we were well taken care of throughout the night with each course arriving in a timely manner. Note they do not have parking or valet, so if you make a reservation allow time to find a parking spot in downtown Decatur (some of the public garages are quite pricey so a short walk is worthwhile). Cafe Alsace offers a delicious meal in a romantic setting, so give them a try if you want a can't-miss date night.

    Ugh, they are closed for the time being. The building they are in did not renew their lease…read more Stupidity! Tried this place out for the first time a few weeks ago. It's adjacent to a parking deck and small. Very cozy, though! The menu is simple and it was a one-man show that day (other staff had left due to closing). LOVED IT! The coleslaw was really good and the Sammie was probably one of the freshest I've had. We had to wait a bit due to it being just him but worth the wait. I did the hot chick ... yeah, I can get away with saying that ... and it was huge, overflowing, tender and fresh. This is a SOLID spot. I was told they'd be re-opening nearby and I hope that's the case. They were BUSY as well so it's clearly not a customer issue. Check them out when they re-open. Simple and amazing!

    The sweet potato fries ALONE... Makes this 5 stars. Ok... Sweet potato fries AND the comeback…read moresauce. Mmm... And the ATL chick. Ok listen, this spot is in the cut wedged between Bank of America and the back of Cornerstone Bank. It has about 7 booths and 4 tables (mostly 2 tops). Customer service is warm and friendly, it always feels like you've known the guys working for years. Now the food...O.M.G. My favorite is the ATL chick which is juicy fried chicken breast tossed in buffalo sauce and... ANNNND... lemon pepper. Cmon. We're in ATL. What other way is there?! Then it has ranch drizzled on top and dressed how you want... lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle. Even the bread is yummy. The sweet potato fries are crispy and airy and go great with the comeback sauce which is whatever smoky heavenly concoction they came up with as a sauce. Listen if you're in downtown Decatur... Do yourself a favor and get here! There is street parking available and you can pay by app or at the meter. It's about $2 for an hour. They also serve salads, other sandwiches, and breakfast. Small collection of beer, wine, and cocktails.
