It took 17 minutes for them to "pull it together" and check us out. They move so slowly. Customers knew what they wanted (since we had so much time to decide while waiting) I just don't understand why they are so slow. I had a sour cream donut and it was very good. Fresh, sweet and light. Our cake donuts were pretty gummy. Maybe it's the humidity in Rockport? Idk, trying to give them the benefit of the doubt but it was only 10am. My husband had a sausage, egg, cheese croissant and said it was pretty good. My ham and cheese croissant was just ok. This place is so dated and old you can't really tell how clean it Is. I passed several donut places to get here because it had a higher review... not sure why. It's just ok. I'll try the closer ones next time.

Beautiful and clean window display of the doughnuts they have and also a bountiful amount if the different kolaches they had to offer today. For the amount if $6.15, I ordered a maple bacon bar (the two pieces of bacon on top of this donut tasted like a Chicharróns ), a chocolate iced donut, a cinnamon twist donut and a strawberry filled donut with pink icing. I loved how the filled donut was oozing out when my daughter took a bite. No air pockets there! The cinnamon twist tasted like a warm churro (heaven!) I'm glad we tried this place out this morning...pretty much made my morning a bit better. Oh! And the dozen glazed donut holes ($1.84) was so light and airy....melted in my mouth after biting into it. I had to stop myself after eating half of the bag lol Safe to say....found my donut place. A bit out of my area but totally worth the trip!!
