Remembered fondly from childhood, owner Mohamed Orra and family understaffed post-pandemc but still crafting several styles of Fried Dough, a dozen currently costs just $14.99 for the sort of quality that typically commands at least double on either coast. Cutting teeth on Don's Yeast rings with Sprinkles, still light and thickly frosted, Fritters at no extra charge are Apple-filled and crispy without being oily while Cake Donuts find Cherry outpacing seasonal Pumpkin or more-familiar Blueberry.

My coworker's birthday is today and I wanted to do something nice and bring in donuts to celebrate…read more I didn't want to go to a chain so I scoured yelp for a donut recommendation, and yall pointed me here. I figured 5am open time and closed almost 1/2 the week - it has to be good to operate on those kind of hours. 15 min from home and opens early enough I can grab them and head back north to work. Logistically it all worked out. Place wasn't busy. I got there at 6am. A few older men sitting at a table, drinking coffee and telling tales. Reminded me of my youth and going with my Uncle to hang out with the old men at McDonald's. It was nostalgic. One lady working. Very friendly and helpful. Pretty decent donut selection. I ordered two on the side for my husband and I to share. Cinnamon roll with chocolate icing and nuts. That was pretty good. Definitely tasted soft and fresh. I ordered an apple fritter - one of my Dad's faves - and it was good. Way different than Tim Hortons! Tasted fried and was dense but still soft. Had plenty of apple. So good. I'm not big on donuts but I would definitely come back for occasions like today.

Staff is really friendly and helpful, service was quick, they have a nice bunch of tables and a small amount of shade to sit in, which was great on the somewhat rainy day we visited. We both got cyclones, one chocolate and one vanilla base. The vanilla had better flavor. The mix-ins aren't fully mixed in. The bottom half of the cup is just ice cream, then a layer mixed in, then more plain ice cream.

Great ice cream and great people and I do recommend this to people if they are visiting.read more

They are constantly improving and adding things, especially seasonally. They are open the majority of the year and the staff is always super nice. They have a nice, clean seating area and plenty of parking. The ice cream and food is also priced very well, to this day they have not upped the prices too much which is amazing and a huge reason I give these guys 5 stars!

This small town, local establishment puts those chain stores to shame. We stopped on our way out of town from visiting relatives in Point Place and I had one of the best peanut butter milkshakes I've ever had! My partner got strawberry and pineapple Dole whip in a waffle cone, and she certainly wasn't disappointed. The menu is extensive for a smaller place, and the prices are fantastic. You get large servings for a low cost. There weren't any picnic tables to eat at, but this may be because of COVID. Be sure to swing along the side of the building and check out the cool mural that is painted!

They have a variety of flavors and options to choose from. They have character popsicles and even have menu options for your four-legged friend. The only downfall? They're seasonal. No complaints aside from that. Well, the grassy lot where you can sit and eat your dessert sometimes smells like dog poop from people not picking up after their dogs, but I wouldn't fault Fritzie Freeze for that.

So what I'm NOT telling you, is that if you live in Toledo, you can only get a great hamburger if…read moreyou drive up to Ida, MI. What I AM saying, is that if you happen to be passing through Ida, I know a place... The burgers at Bluestreak Snack Shop are genuinely awesome. Hand-pattied high quality 80/20 beef, cheese, fresh buns and fresh toppings. Put these together for the perfect flavor combo. The prices might seem high, but they're not. When compared to a similar product from, say, Five Guys, BSS is actually a cheaper. Now, Five Guys makes a good burger, but Bluestreak Snack Shop is just as good...I'd say better. There are, of course, other things on the menu. I was particularly intrigued by the premade subs (pizza, Italian, ham and cheese). You'll find these in the cooler along with the canned pop. About seven bucks apiece, about 8 inches long. They're assembled with just the roll, the meat, and the cheese, BUT, if ask the workers to dress the sub for you, they'll add the fresh veggies and condiments right there, before you leave. Of course, this is also an ice cream stand. I haven't tried any ice cream yet, but I can't imagine that it wouldn't taste delicious....the place was full of locals, all eating ice cream. The atmosphere is what you would expect for a family owned ice cream shop that sells delicious food. There're a few tables inside and several picnic tables in front. Out behind the building, you'll find the Porta Potty?!? Well, it was clean and, relatively, odor free! The problem with Ida Michigan is that, realistically, it's not "along the way" to anything. To Monroe from Toledo? Nope. From Toledo to Ann Arbor or Dundee? Uh uh. BUT, I have a plan: Start in West Toledo, after stopping at Boyd's Retro Candy Store. Drive north on Lewis, and stop at Pavlov's for a cold one. Keep heading north and stop at Lewis Pizza and Liquor, for a delicious slice. Just one slice, cuz you'll want to save room for a fantastic burger when you get to Ida! 5 stars!

The outside was crispy and flaky, but the filling was actually throughout the whole croissant instead of just being stuffed into one spot. And it wasn't overly sweet either, which was a huge plus for me. Everything just tasted really balanced. They make their own dough and their own fillings, and you can definitely tell. It's a really unique take on desserts for the Toledo area and definitely somewhere I'd go back to try more things!
