Sbrocco's is very a cute donut shop. We did half a dozen on our first visit, here's the run down of the 6 things we tried: Sour cream cake donut: 5/5 loved the consistency, very dense and tasty! would get more of the cake donuts next time Chocolate glazed: 3/5 VERY soft and fluffy as it was a yeast donut, but the chocolate glaze was not very sweet. would love to try the vanilla version and see if it's sweeter! Cinnamon sugar: 4/5 similar to an old fashioned donut, as it's not overly sweet, but cinnamon sugar gives it an extra touch. Crème filled: 3/5 essentially a chocolate glazed with creme filling -- this one was also ok! the crème was nice and rich but was expecting it to be a bit sweeter Cardy B: 4/5 remind me of a cinnamon roll, but there's a heavier cream cheese taste from the icing that can be slightly off putting if you're not into that, but I believe it mixes fairly well with the cinnamon and other flavors. Apple Fritter: 5/5 best thing we ordered by far. it's sweet, fluffy, and just melts in your mouth. no notes. All of these taste best FRESH! We didn't finish the whole box on day 1, but the donuts were super dried out the next morning we went to pick at them them, so eating them when they're fresh is the way to go!! I would come again to get their pastries and cake donuts. Their staff was also very kind and patient as we took a minute to decide on our choices :) read more

Sbrocco's is the delicious little sister to MarieBette, and it absolutely lives up to the reputation. Everything tastes incredibly fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully made. These donuts highlight all the best parts of a donut--light, tender dough, just the right amount of sweetness, and amazing flavor without feeling heavy or greasy. Can't decide between a cake donut, yeast donut, or fritter? You can have it all. I stop here and always take it back with me up to NOVA, and it is always exactly what we need. Even after the trip, the donuts held up beautifully and still tasted fresh. If you're anywhere near Charlottesville, this is a must-stop for coffee and donuts. You can tell they care about quality in every bite. The service is friendly and the shop is cute. Be prepared to wait in line because this is a crowd pleaser!! Highly recommend: - sour cream donut - chocolate cream ( tastes like a brownie) - cherry fritter ( 1000% ) - jam filled ( WOW THIS JAM!!) read more

My husband and I were in Charlottesville a few weeks ago to go hiking with our dogs and stopped in here out last full day to grab some donuts and coffee before driving out to Shenandoah for the last time. We figured some sugar would help fuel our hike, and we were right. We got a late start to the day, so when we got there they only had a few different donuts left, but they were AMAZING. My husband got a classic donut with chocolate icing, I got a cinnamon sugar donut, and we each got a cake donut. The cake donut was decadent and so soft. Each donut had such great flavor and was moist. I also loved that my cinnamon sugar donut kept the cinnamon and sugar on the actually donut vs falling off and all over the rental car. I didn't take photos of our coffees, but I had one of the best chai lattes I've ever had from any state and my husband had a caramel mocha latte that he declared the best coffee of our entire trip (he sadly didn't like any other coffee from the other bakeries we stopped at during our time in Charlottesville, but I enjoyed all of mine so I guess he's just picky lol). Wholly recommend stopping in here and grabbing some donuts to-go like we did! read more

Very good very consistent and very fresh bakery in town. I always appreciate how thoughtful the services and how friendly they are. The donuts are always delicious. I particularly love the honey bun and the cinnamon sugar doughnut. They are a little bit on the more expensive side, but well worth it because it's such a high-quality piece of pastry. The inside of the café is well decorated and very cute. It can get a little bit cramped during the weekend when it's crowded but otherwise a very nice place to sit down and have a pastry. read more

The raspberry filled donut was super flavorful and fresh! The apple fritter didn't have as much apple as I was expecting but still yummy. I would definitely go back to try more. The decorations inside are cute. read more

We got a mixed half dozen and they were the best damn donuts we ever had! The chocolate cake donut was my favorite. I can't wait to try more flavors. Bravo guys, you are doing it right!! read more

Just a quick note: someone kindly brought an assortment of these donuts in today and They Were Astonishingly Good. Bringing doughnuts and seeking to assure certain smiles-- get these. There. Said and done. read more

Stopping into this donut place yielded a small but appealing spread. I noted that a chocolate cream one was labeled as containing gelatin, which I wish were not used but I do at least appreciate when these things are labeled as there are a lot of things in desserts that create non-obvious dietary concerns. The berry-filled creation I ended up with instead was abundantly tart. There were beverage options but as a non-coffee drinker I decided do go elsewhere. read more

My favorite new addition to Charlottesville: the perfect friendly neighborhood donut shop! I am consistently blown away. These donuts are your typical favorite flavors, but they are so high quality and flavorful that you'll never want donuts from anywhere else in the area again. So far my favorites are the cream filled-- think Boston cream but stuffed _full_ of cream and with the most flavorful chocolate icing I could ask for; the maple bar-- glazed with a maple kick perfect for fall; and the apple fritter-- chunks of apple bursting with every bite. I'm eyeing the chocolate cake and vanilla bean glazed for next time, and the crumb bun! Don't sleep on their coffee either. Their PSL is *chef's kiss*. They're currently open every day of the week, and they get busy in the mornings! There is parking out front but it is limited. My go-to is to be there very early for the best selection. The decor is adorable, but there's not a lot of seating so you may want your donuts to go. read more

I absolutely loved this new donuts place! EVERY. SINGLE. DONUT. WAS. MASTERCLASS. The service was next level too as the cashiers even offered me a free warm donut to go with my 12+ I already ordered. While the price of the donuts is on the higher end you do get what you pay for and is a new must try in Cville. read more

Superb coffee and bakery products served up by quality young humans that speak to you and look you in the face with smiles. Decor nicely blends industrial glass from original windows and doors, with modern color and layout. The donuts are exceptional - not over designed or sickeningly heavy. Get your own, don't share. A must-visit for any out-of-towner, and a nice regular treat for those of us lucky enough to walk to bike there regularly! read more

I've had the sour cream donut (my fav) vanilla bean glaze, apple fritter, winter special caramel filled and the crumb bun. All were amazing! The location is perfect for a treat if you work on that side of grounds. read more

Don't waste your time guys.. just go to 7/11! These were shitty donuts that you can purchase at any convenience store. Drove two hours (got here early morning) to get some "amazing donuts" and they were just the most generic donuts ever. Most of their choices were already sold out! Like at least make enough that'll last you till 10:30-11 am. The staff was unhelpful. I wish I would've taken a picture of how shitty it all was but it was so upsetting I just had to leave. read more

Cute, very small boutique donut shop with limited options. Pricey! $18/6 donuts. However, the apple fritters were the BEST and worth the $4.50 price tag. I thought the yeast donuts were a bit underwhelming a little blah--good but I wouldn't buy again. Chocolate chip cookie also really good as was the jelly donut. I didn't try any cake donuts. Fritters and cookies are a 5, donuts a 3. read more

I finally had a chance to try Sbrocco's and was very impressed! Charlottesville has been in need of a good community donut place since Spudnuts closed, and Sbrocco's is well on the way to taking up that mantle. They have a variety of both yeasted and cake donuts in a variety of flavors, including seasonal options and fritters, as well as a full service coffee counter (ask for the milk/flavor options if needed since they're not listed on the menu). The interior is small, cute, and clean. The staff are super friendly and happy to explain options, and the service is quick as well. Definitely come early, especially on weekdays, since they tend to sell out before the actual closing time! They update on their Instagram when this happens, so check there if you're unsure. I had a latte and a raspberry jelly donut. The donut was sweet and soft without being too greasy, and you could tell that it was filled with real raspberry and not just flavored goop. I'm not a huge donut fan in general, but this was a great way to start my weekend. Thanks Sbrocco's! read more

Cute little addition to the Fry Spring area. Definitely very popular and limited parking (there's like 10 spots in the front that is shared with other businesses as well). First off the Apple fritter here is a must get. I know this is a donut place, but the Apple fritter is ahhhmazing and honestly the best value (size to cost ratio). The donuts are fun, there is a nice variety and you can choose between cake and yeast. I also got a hot americano. Excellent. It was smooth and not bitter. Really good overall. Will be back! Oh also little tip: u can order ahead 48 hours if you got a big order! read more

I'm not usually a donut lover, but I do love these donuts. They're made fresh daily, inventive and fun. Their coffee is great, and team members warm and helpful. Sometimes I wish they had an egg sandwich... but then I remember then I'll never have an excuse to get their delicious donuts! read more

One billion stars for the world's best donuts and nicest staff. I've been about 4 times and every donut I got was wonderful

Staff is so unbelievably nice and sweet, it almost makes up for the doughnuts being mediocre. Seriously though, while it's not a bad pastry, it felt like I was eating pillowy bread with melted chocolate on top. For a doughnut that's $3.50, i would expect a less disjointed feeling product. Also, I bought 4 doughnuts for almost 14 dollars and they stuffed them into a bag with an entire wall of boxes sitting behind them. while being kinda cheeky, What's the price that needs to be paid for a box to be gained read more

The service was nice. Overpriced and disgusting spent close to $30 on six pastry's. No one ate them! The doughnuts had a weirdest texture and taste. Like a sourdough starter yuck. read more

Pros: The donuts are good and taste very fresh. The dough is moist and has a little bit of pastry flavor to it. The chocolate icing was good. The service is friendly. Cons: The jam was obviously fresh and homemade, but it wasn't my cup of tea; we couldn't even tell what type of fruit it was made from. I didn't like the maple bar at all; it somehow had a burnt-coffee-like taste to it. Parking is a pain unless you go at an off hour. The donuts are pricy and fairly small. Conclusion: If you want a donut that tastes a little pretentious, like it was made from scratch of all organic, non-GMO ingredients by someone who went to pastry school (which may be your thing, I'm not here to judge), then go here. It's like the fine dining equivalent of a donut, which is on brand for Cville. If you want a much larger donut with the most delicious glaze and fillings, a lower price tag, a wider selection, and much easier parking, then go to The Donut Kitchen on Pantops. I would choose theirs over these 10/10 times. read more

Their donuts were delicious, the cronut was incredible! We're not from the area and we regret not getting more. The girl at the register was also incredibly sweet and super helpful! Will definitely be back when in the area! read more

Super yummy, fresh donuts! I especially love the jam filled. Their coffees are also great and reasonably priced. So happy to have this place in the neighborhood :) read more

Terrific, super-fresh donuts in a tiny, hipster hangout. Not much available to drink besides espresso beverages. Kind of pricey, but you can't fault the flavors. read more

Bought a small coffee today along with my donuts. $3 for a tiny coffee. I thought Starbucks was expensive, this is ridiculous and the coffee was mediocre. Never again. read more

Wow. I've been craving a great apple fritter and this place did not disappoint! It was HUGE. It had just the right amount of crispy edge. The texture of the fritter was great. The vanilla donut was also delicious. Honestly, this place is the real deal. read more

Absolutely awesome doughnuts, and one of the best apple fritters I've ever had. Enough said.

The chocolate sprinkle donut is one of the best I have ever had. The chocolate on it tastes rich, decadent and real. I am obsessed with their donuts. My husband LOVES their Apple fritter. They know what they are doing here. There is care and flavor is everything. I love the coffee too! Cute shop, kind people, great donuts! read more

Honestly giving a 3 star review because they want you to take out a mortgage to be able to afford their donuts. I paid $18 for a HALF DOZEN. Not a dozen. A HALF DOZEN. Overpriced is an understatement. Otherwise the donuts are good read more

The apple fritter was huge and delicious! Incredibly fresh. The cinnamon twist was amazing too. Big enough that it felt the price was fair ($4.00 for the fritter and $3.50 for the twist I believe). Definitely going again the next time I'm in town. read more

I think they have around 5 or six donut flavors as well as a few pastry such as a honey bun & apple fritter. The donuts were very tasty and extremely fresh! Everything I tried was spot on... read more

Haven't been to Sbrocco's yet? Why the hell not?! These donuts are next level. It may have a line out the door, but it moves fast and is well worth the wait. Better get there early so they aren't sold out...the chocolate cake donut? Like eating a chocolate cloud. The Nilla Bean OG? Should be called the OMFG. The current special is some coconut fabulousness. It's a little pricey--$18 for 6, but shut up and take my money. read more

Delicious donuts and coffee! Staff were super kind. Absolutely love the decor and overall vibe!!
