    This place is great with fair prices and friendly staff. I love that they are in my neighborhood and can take a 10-15 minute walk for a sweet treat. I haven't tried their ice-cream but it looks really good.

    Very decedent! They have multiple cake donut options, but mainly they have many choices for the soft fluffy melt in your mouth type of donut. They had multiple filled donut options. My favorite that was available at the time of my visit was the apple filled donut. It had chunks of fresh apple in there and tasted like an apple fritter. Speaking of fritter, they had a pineapple fritter, but I didn't care too much for it. It tasted like a regular donut with extra sugar. They said they were actively working on reformulating to make it more pineapple forward, so I'm excited to try it again once it changes. We tried the blueberry cheesecake donut and my kiddo loved it. If you are a fan of cheesecake, you will like it. Their classic donut is delicious, and every donut is massive. It took my family of 3 multiple days to finish 4 donuts. They also serve ice cream there. The flavors sounded fun and interesting. My husband tried the banana cream pie and blueberry cheesecake and said they tasted like the real deal. The parking lot shares with a very popular local restaurant, so parking is tough. Luckily they do have a few spots reserved just for them. The space has seating outside and inside if you choose to stay. It's spacious, modern, and clean. The staff were so kind and very knowledgeable. They seemed passionate about their flavors and were very friendly. I love when these spots feel like a family already on your first visit. I'm not a big donut fan, but I'm definitely going back to see what else they come up with.

    Hot honey bacon maple donut

    I'm pretty sure I just had an out of body experience in a donut shop - Shaka's cronuts are seriously life changing, not to mention the variety of other options inside this cute shop. We arrived on a Sunday afternoon and were greeted and served quickly despite the long line. The hot bacon maple donut was perfect, the fruity pebble one transported me to my childhood...but the cronut...did I mention it yet? Holy smokes - pillowy laminated layers that give a half-baklava, half-fluffy yeast donut vibe that explodes with deliciousness. The bright and airy, tropical aesthetic just added to the enjoyment of this sunny Sunday visit. We'll be back!!

    Yummmmmmm, I know I need to say more than just yummmmmmm but that's the best word to describe my experience. They have locally baked sourdough bagels that are phenomenal. You can even buy a 5 pack of these bagels and they are amazing! The customer service from entry to the line cook to departure was all welcoming. It was bright and clean and a great spot to grab a coffee and read a bit. I had the BEC on a bagel and it was SO good!!! My friend had the donut holes and a Boston cream pie donut and she said both were delicious, not too sweet and super fresh. We will definitely return (lots of parking too!)

    Caramel latte with almond milk milk

    Stumbled across this donut shop while waiting for laundry and omg was it amazing. Amelia was super attentive with us and so sweet Excellent customer service that made us want to come back. My husband & I ordered their everything breakfast bagel with egg, bacon & American cheese, caramel latte with almond milk, banana cream pie & chocolate donut. The donuts were so moist, soft, and dense but fluffy, literally perfection. We've tried many donut shops and none have reached our expectations until this place. Donuts are not overbearingly sweet and reasonably priced for the size and quality you're getting. Coffee was great too, not too sweet or too bitter. The ambiance was relaxing and chill. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

    Clean, delicious fluffy donuts, friendly service! Will definitely be back to try ice cream.

    Samoa and Strawberry Wafer Donuts

    Shaka Donuts re-opened to a new location on Curry Ford in the Hourglass District on July 1st! I stopped by to check out the new space since I missed having their donuts. Since it's a new space, it's very clean, open, and inviting. I ordered the Strawberry Wafer Donut and the Samoa Donut! The good: Both donuts were tasty! The Strawberry Wafer Donut had a delicious strawberry flavor, and I enjoyed the wafers on top. The Samoa Donut tasted exactly like the Girl Scouts Samoas Cookies. If you love coconut, then you'll enjoy this one a lot. The bad: Nothing at all! Overall, I'm glad that Shaka Donuts re-opened, and can't wait to return to try the other flavors such as the Banana, Creamsicle, and Boston Creme Donuts!

    First time at the new location and we have always been a fan of Shaka! We stopped by after dinner at F&D, love the convenience of having dinner and then walking over for some dessert! We were all stuffed but our toddler wanted ice cream, so we got him ice cream! The interior was so pretty and inviting, counter was clean and service was great. 2 recommendations: 1. covers for the ice cream cup if taking to go- my toddler only had a couple of bites and we were all so full from dinner so wanted to bring it home to go. Luckily we live a short drive away but would've been nice to have a lid. 2. Trash can- there was only a small trash can on the counter, which seemed more for spoons after trying flavors of ice cream. My toddler dropped a little ice cream and we cleaned it up with napkins and had trouble finding the trash can (the little one was full). We would definitely come back again, a little hungrier next time to fully enjoy all the treats!

    Super cute and clean! Lots of good options for donuts and our breakfast bagels today. Gotta come back to try their ice cream options, everything looked so good! Our breakfast bagels were made with a super soft sourdough that was absolutely delicious. Great service as well, the workers were super sweet!

    Nice area, not to busy and a couple of other very good hang outs on the same block. Donuts are all lights out. Huge donuts, fluffy. Tons of filing in the filled donuts. Blueberry cake donut is a must try. They even have a few beers on tap. I could hang out here all day drinking beer and eating donuts and I would start with a breakfast sandwich made from donuts. If I lived closer I would be much fatter than I already am.

    Such a cute hidden gem! The donuts and bagel sandwich are amazing!! The service is also top notch, highly recommend!!

    I've come a couple times with my husband, and we've had excellent service both times. We have had the same employee each time and she remembered us when we walked in. she's always so patient with us and explains when we have questions. I like the cookies & cream, and my husband likes the pb&j donut. We tried the iced coffee today too and it was great. They even offered a free donut to my husband when his donut holes were a little soggy. We really appreciate the friendliness in this world. And the donuts are great! Thank you!

    I've been a Shaka Donuts fan since their first shop in the SoDo District, and so happy that their new home is nearby! This location is light and bright, with a friendly and welcoming staff. I love their malasades, donuts, and especially their cronuts. You can't go wrong with ordering anything. Their ice cream is also house made (I didn't get a scoop this visit, but trust me, it's creamy and delicious). Highly recommend you stop by for a sweet treat!

    Oh my goodness! Had I ever tried freshly made beignets before? No--not until today!…read more When we came across this cute hidden gem called Beignets & Brew, we decided to stop in and give it a try. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles, and the cozy atmosphere immediately made us feel welcome. We ordered two kinds of smoothies along with their traditional beignets. The beignets were generously dusted with powdered sugar, and when I took my first bite, they were hot, fresh, and wonderfully chewy on the inside. I honestly don't think I've ever had freshly made beignets before, and they were absolutely delicious! We were both so excited to discover this place. They offer several different varieties of beignets, and we're already looking forward to trying more of them little by little on future visits. Today was my cheat day, and it was completely worth it for these amazing treats! The smoothies were also fantastic. They weren't overly sweet, and you could really taste the freshness of the fruit. I highly recommend Beignets & Brew to anyone who has never tried freshly made beignets--or to anyone who simply loves a delicious sweet treat. We will definitely be back!

I was immediately thinking that this place would not be out of place on Mills ave or downtown. I saw the coffee prices posted and they seemed about average or even maybe a bit of a bargain compared to some of the coffee chain prices. I was given a menu that highlighted some of their rotating seasonal drinks. I was surprised to see drink prices at $15 & $16. I know downtown that would not be unusual, but I assumed since this was pretty far out east it might be a few dollars cheaper. Still, I understand you get what you pay for an they bar seemed to have many top shelf brands and a good selection to boot. There were a few tables with people, and I noticed a few more seemed to be working on their laptops so great idea if you would rather work with a beer or glass of wine instead of a coffee.
