    Coconut donut -- coconut pudding, vanilla icing with coconut on top
    Eileen D.

    I was so looking forward to revisiting Square Donut. We tried them when they first opened and I had fond memories. Now wondering if Im mis-remembering! I arrived around 830 on Sunday morning, and the line was short and fast moving. It looks like they have a booming advance order business, lots of pink boxes. I'm not fond of chocolate-iced donuts, but I love Bavarian cream insides, so that was one of my six purchases. I tried to scrape off the frosting, to no avail. It was a hard-ish shell like melted chocolate chips. The interior was yum, but the frosting made it too sweet for me. Next up, a lovely (bunch of) coconut. I was told it had coconut pudding inside, but again, the frosting was overwhelming, so that was essentially all I could taste. What's my theme here? Less is more, ladies and gentlemen! Next up, Maple Bacon. The maple frosting was not overwhelming, and was delicious. That said, the bacon WAS! Can that even be a thing? When is there ever too much bacon? If I was going out for a meaty breakfast, I'd go to Vidlaks. This is donuts! Cakey breakfast treats! I felt bad, but scraped off more than half the bacon bits, and then it was ok. I feel bad being such a curmudgeon. The people at the shop were wonderful -- helpful, speedy, knowledgeable. But while the donuts all are pretty, they are just over the top on toppings! With all the sugary bites, I needed coffee to cut the sweetness ... and while the coffee tasted ok, it was lukewarm -- and I'd only just walked to my car! In short, I like cakey things where the cake shines, and hot drinks hot. And that wasn't my experience today. It was, though, less expensive than I anticipated ... for which I'm thankful. Two whole donuts (fruit filled and vanilla iced) remaining along with three halves. I may try leftovers with my own steaming, strong coffee tomorrow, but I'm not sure the sugar has dissipated enough to sleep tonight. We'll see!

    PB&J FTW!!!

    I am now a believer in square donuts! When I stopped in, it was a special day in the community (End of Summer/Back to School), so the stock was *way* low. There were just a few varieties left, plus several flavors of the gluten-free cake donuts. The digs are super cute! Love the pink everywhere. The gluten-free plain vanilla iced donut was perfection: light and fluffy, sweet and soft, with a little fresh citrusy brightness to the icing. You can't even tell it's gluten-free. Amazing. The maple bacon donut was pretty good. The balance of the flavors was on point, and the donut was still light and fluffy beneath all the rich toppings. Kind of a quibbling point on if you like your bacon done a particular way, but it was still pretty good. The star for me, though, was the PB&J donut. The delightfully crunchy peanut butter took the spotlight only for a moment, because there was such a good covering of jelly through every bite that childhood memories came flooding back with glee. I was surprised how light and fluffy the donuts remained beneath the specialty toppings, especially the maple and bacon. But the square donuts held their own!! I'll definitely be back. Thanks, y'all!

    I had never tried Square Donut before and had a chance to go check them out via Yelp's Treat-o-Clock series (that's the great part about the Yelp Elite Squad, getting to try new places!) After that first visit courtesy of Yelp, I had to go back and get some more flavors of donuts, because they were such high quality (and giant!) It's always super busy in there, and they will run out of certain things by mid-morning, so definitely go early in the morning if you want the most selection of options. The staff is super sweet, and works well under the pressure of the busy atmosphere. The interior and branding inside is SO cute and very pink - my favorite color. It just puts you in a fun, bright mood so early in the morning. The donuts I have ordered (all delicious) are: -Square Jane: I think this is their play on a "Long John" - It was stuffed with a whipped cream filling and had a topping of chocolate icing with cute pink swirls. -Chocolate Peanut Butter: Also cool swirls on this one! It was a chocolate topped donut (the same tasty chocolate as the Square Jane) but with peanut butter on top and stuffed with a peanut butter flavored whipped filling. If you're a fan of peanut butter and chocolate together like Reese's - this is definitely one for you to try. -Maple Top Raised: I'm a huge fan of maple donuts, and this one was great! The maple glaze on top was very flavorful and sweet, and the donut itself (like all their donuts), was fluffy and light and easy to eat. -PB&J: This was another of the fancy style flavors I picked. The donut is covered in "chunky" peanut butter glaze (little bits of peanuts on top) and is filled with a grape jelly middle. It is literally like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich you make at home, but with a little extra sweetness since you're having it as a donut! -Strawberry Top Raised: In addition to maple, strawberry is one of my favorite flavors too, so I had to get this one! Perfectly pink strawberry frosting covering a light, fluffy donut. You can't go wrong with this one. -Chocolate Top Raised: This is an age old classic - just a super fluffy donut, covered in their scrumptious chocolate glaze. They also have a full array of coffee, from standard drip style to full on lattes that they can make. The last time I went, it was pumpkin spice season so I tried one of their Pumpkin Spice Lattes. It was a cut above the Starbucks PSL, it was that good! So if you see a flavor you like on the specialty lattes menu, grab it before it's gone. If you're a fan of amazing quality donuts, tasty coffee drinks, super cute cafe style spots, and wonderful staff - definitely give Square Donut a try. Just go early!

    Quick and friendly service and really good donuts! The choices were diminished due to arriving a little late in the morning, but they were really delicious.

    Narrowly escaped with a half dozen donuts at 12:30, but the last one for March's DOTM slipped through our fingers! Super CUUUTE merch, and I had no idea they sold Hardy Coffee Co there! #IYKYK Can we ALL just take a moment, and APPRECIATE how evenly filled the Bavarian cream is in the chocolate frosted one? It's not to one corner, or is it just a literal pea sized specimen. It's got a DECENT amount, in the middle - and let me tell you, that matters. Details folks, details. That maple?! Perfectly sweetened; not too sickly and oh so just right. Kinda disappointed the hubs got the first bite on that one... but I've got my eye on that simple yet sophisticated, chocolate glazed with sprinkles! I'll be honest, my first experience with Square Donut was for my nieces 3rd; ya know, the GIANT square donut, with strawberry frosting. The dough then was airy, moist, and what I "prefer" when I smash a donut. This batch?! SAME! Consistency is key and they do not disappoint on their dough. We knew pickings would be slim on a Saturday, so late into their working hours, but when in Rome as I always say REALLY looking forward to what April's DOTM will be!!

    Had such a great time. Went on a Sunday morning with my son had a great time. He got a vanilla sprinkle I had a strawberry lemonade (donut if the month) and got a strawberry sprinkle for my daughter. I had a hazelnut latte with oat milk. It was delicious. I normally get skim milk but they don't carry skim. They did just add lattes to their menu so they might increase their milk options in the future. The service was good and the place was so cute. Said outside and enjoyed a beautiful morning.

    This place not only has exceptional donuts but amazing customer service! The girl behind the counter complimented my hair the second I walked in, and several other employees there were so pleasant and friendly during my 2 visits. To my surprise, the simplest donut I got (strawberry) was my favorite. Such a great taste on the dough alone and I am NOT a bread person so I normally don't enjoy donuts like this! Highly recommend, I will be back for sure!

    Some of the best donuts I've had in a long time! We got there early on a Saturday and had plenty of options to choose from! Wish we would have had time to go back again before we left town

The decor is minimal but I loved the different gold mirrors. When I ordered the cashier at the counter was all smiles and just a delight to talk to, she was super friendly.

There are three flavors of smoothies to choose from: mango, wild berry, and strawberry. The Crescent Brûlée is a blend of caramel and vanilla, topped with whipped cream and a burnt sugar top. Both of the drinks we had tasted good. I'm not a big smoothie person--in fact, this is my first time ordering a smoothie in a long time--and I was very pleased with it. It was very smooth. Their menu is pretty extensive, in my opinion: coffee, tea, matcha, seasonal lattes, energy drinks, as well as some pastries and breakfast sandwiches. I also appreciated how easy it was to read their menu. I feel like a lot of the time in coffee shops, their menus are all over the place and you have to ask a lot of questions. This menu was nicely written. The shop has a very welcoming vibe, with different plants and displays. They also sell a few different things, such as clothes, sage, stickers, and different stones. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this coffee shop, and I will definitely be back.

The location on 204th Street in Gretna is clean, open, inviting ... but noisy. It's one of those warehouse-type settings where you really have to work at having a private conversation. Seating is expecially comfortable in the big chairs, but then you have to schootch them close together and lean in so you can hear each other, which is unfortunate. Granted, tables are set far apart, but this should be in addition to. Coffee was delicious, but the beignet bites were just so-so. Granted, one should not expect New Orleans beignets outside of New Orleans, but these little donut puffs had only a light dusting of powdered sugar (which I actually was thankful for because I wore black pants!), and there was a not-overly-pleasant surprise inside with an indistinguishable creamy substance that was sort of like the inside of a brown sugar cinnamon poptart, only less so. I hadn't been expecting that. The yogurt parfait was substantial and delicious. (The staff was friendly and helpful when making selections, but it didn't occur to me to ask about fillings.) I might visit again, but maybe at one of the other locations, if acoustics were more promising.

They only offered one herbal option (lavender mint) but unfortunately I could only taste the mint and didn't notice any lavender. They did have other caffeine-free drinks available, but I was looking for something unsweetened and low in sugar. The space was also different than I expected. Based on the name, I imagined a cozy, relaxing atmosphere with comfortable lounge seating. Instead, the décor felt a bit mismatched, almost like the café had expanded over time and the two sides were decorated very differently. That said, one thing they absolutely got right was the amount of seating. There were plenty of tables and space to work, study, or catch up with a friend without feeling crowded. The biggest downside was the cleanliness. The bathroom didn't feel clean, there were stains on the floors, chipped paint and damaged walls, crumbs around the couches and on some of the chairs, and the dish return bins were noticeably dirty inside. I stayed for about 90 minutes, and during that time I didn't see any cleaning happening, even though there were several areas that clearly needed attention. None of these issues alone would have been a dealbreaker, but together they made the café feel neglected and took away from what otherwise could have been a much more enjoyable experience.
