    Overall great ice cream place. We've visiting both the Vineyard Heaven and Oak Bluff location and…read morethey both were great. The staff at both locations were very friendly and while it gets busy, they are very fast and efficient. They offer a rewards card so you can earn a free ice cream. Ambiance is like your classic ice cream shop and they have a great selection of flavors. The Oak Bluffs location is bigger, which allows for more inside seating.

    I visited Mad Martha's in Oak Bluffs around 8PM today (8/18) and asked to sample the black…read moreraspberry flavor before purchasing it since I had never tried it before. The employee refused. Normally, that wouldn't be a big deal--except I had just watched several white customers on either side of me receive samples without any issue. They were treated kindly and allowed to sample flavors, while I was denied the exact same courtesy. As a Black customer, the stark difference in treatment was impossible for me to ignore. Based on what I personally witnessed, I felt singled out and treated differently because of my race. I don't make an accusation of racial bias lightly, but when customers immediately around me are being accommodated and I'm denied the same basic service, it's reasonable to question why. What makes this even more disturbing is that after my experience, I came across another review from a Black customer describing a remarkably similar experience at this same location involving samples and differential treatment. Seeing that after experiencing it myself was extremely concerning. Whatever the reason, customers should receive the same level of courtesy and service regardless of race. Absolutely unacceptable experience.

    Back Door Donuts is absolutely worth the wait. The line can be INSANE, but once you taste the…read moredonuts, you understand why everybody is standing there. The apple fritter is the star of the show--warm, rich, and loaded with flavor, with actual pieces of apple on top. Go early in the morning when everything is fresh and hot. Trust me. One fritter is more than enough to share because it's huge and mad rich, but it is seriously to die for. I also tried the glazed and raspberry-filled donuts, which were both really good, but that apple fritter is on another level. The line definitely waxes and wanes, so it's hard to predict the best time to go. This week there were MAD people, but I'd still stand in that line again for the apple fritter. If you only order one thing, make it the apple fritter.

    We saw a line coming out of Back Door donuts and decided to pass on the crowd, then later on in the…read moreday, swung by after 11am, and it had died down a bit - we were grateful to find some quiet on the busy 4th of July visit. Anyways, I was so happy to see something savoury available, I ordered a Spinach Feta Croissant and looking around, I spotted the donut I knew that I had to have. When in Martha's Vineyard, anything Jaws themed is an automatic yes! They have Jaws donuts and they are too cute to not get. Everything was what you'd expect, nothing out of this world, but I did love the theming of the donut. Perfect for a photo opp and a sugar rush.
