The best donut spot in Seattle I would say and I have tried quite a few of different spots here!

You evil bastards. Why oh why do you taunt me with your decadently moist chocolate glazed chocolate doughnuts? Oh yeah, Double Trouble is the right moniker for *you*! Ngaaaaah, that enticing aroma of rich cocoa-y badness electrifying my sinuses while that springy cakey doooooughnut rolls across my taste buds. And don't get me started on those fluffy, tangy raspberry powdered sugar doughnuts. Do you know how many chic black sweaters I've defiled with your naughty sweetness? Well @$%&?! you for almost always being out of non-old fashioned doughnuts by 8PM & double @$%&?! you for not being in PDX. Okay, so now can we have a wild, crazy make up session? read more

I thought it was time for an update on Top Pot. Three years ago I shelled out 5 shiny red stars and again in 2012 I've got 5 more for 'em. This tucked away gem is nestled between tree lined streets in Capitol Hill. Filled mostly with locals and the occasional donut-loving tourist, this cute, quaint, quiet coffee spot is quiet lovely. Most people think of donuts and want to get one in the morning. But here you can visit and get fresh baked goodies or coffee at practically any hour. Have some work to do in the evening? Want a late lunch or snack? This is your spot! It's also great for a date or a place to read a book. And as for the donuts... They're awesome. I'm so over the hype of donuts with cereal and Tang on them. Here the frill is that there aren't any frills. Just good, tasty, rich classic donuts. read more

My inner child is a fat kid. Oh, I kick this little butterball around, with pilates and martial arts and whatever torturous mid-evil way I can dream up, but that little bastard has friends. Friends like Top Pot, I can't compete. These things are more addictive than cigarettes and almost as easy to find, with them being available at Starbucks and Bauhaus and the two TP locations......... My on going addiction........ dense, moist and delicious. I may put you down from time to time , but that little chubby sugar fiend will never let us part. read more

Getting to work at 7:45 can be a huge pain in the ass. You are tired, most likely grumpy, a little hungry because you haven't eaten for about 8 hours. So of course the rational person gets a doughnut for breakfast. Now I didn't go to this Top Pot location to get this doughnut. That would be ridiculous (not because it's ridiculous to go to Top Pot, but it is kind of far from my work, why go out of the way for a freakin doughnut, man?). I got this at the little coffee shop across from my work...er, evil corporation across from my work. I took one bite of this overpriced, overdelicious doughnutwhen a wide-eyed co-worker says, "A DOUGHNUT! A DOUGHNUT!" I asked if he would like a piece and he said no because he needs to go visit his doctor or something. I laughed, then stole his stapler when he wasn't looking.

Have you ever gotten into one of those knock-down drag-out fights with a friend? The kind that ends with both of you stomping off into the dark at 3 am, only dimly aware of who has the keys to the apartment, and not giving a crap either way? Let me tell you this - the only way to fix things after a good old-fashioned bitch fit is, well, a good old fashioned. Top Pot excels at the fryolated arts, with their old fashioned being heaps better (in my opinion) than their cake doughnuts. The glazes and frostings are all good but honestly I think the simple plain no glaze, or maybe the cinnamon sugar, really lets the the old fashioned shine in all its dark, crispy, tender, sweet goodness. Another massive success is the apple fritter - bigger than my two fists, stuffed with apples, shiny-glazed and ready for some ecstatic moans. These lovelies are made throughout the day, so if you turn up hungover in the afternoon, clamoring for a treat, you won't be served some sad stale lump. Trust me, I know - a coffee and a doughnut will cure your hangover AND fix any friendships you managed to ruin the night before. Thanks, Top Pot! read more

I'm in your corner, Bavarian Creme, thrusting a mouthpiece in your face and wiping sweat off your manly brow! "Your hands can't hit what your eyes can't see--rumble young man, rumble!" (Chocolate Feather Boa, peh!) read more

The server rolled me a big fattie! Don't get the wrong idea here. It was loose leaf tea and it was delicious. I liked this place a lot. The doughnuts were pretty standard with creative names like the feather boa (cake doughnut with icing and coconut sprinkles). The anal side of me wants a consistent logo. The door has one logo, the plates have another one and the cups and bags have a third. Get it together, man. read more

Top Pot Doughnuts - Bakeries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Ok seriously....deep fried dough covered in pure sugary goodness and topped with candy sprinkles...what can I say but...YUMMY!! Top Pot is AMAZING..this grand cochon will be back for more deep fried deliciousness! AND great cafinated delights to boot! Big props to Ktown for the introduction! read more

It seems like donut people fall into two camps. There are the Krispy Kremers, who like their donuts light and fluffy and sugary. And then there are the Cakies, who like their donuts dense and uh... cakey. Well, I guess there are also people who don't like donuts at all, but really, these individuals are clearly unstable, and their opinions should be universally disregarded, no matter the topic of conversation. Anyway, me, I'm a cakey donut kinda guy. I like donuts with a little, as the kids say, "something-something." Donuts that you can sink your teeth into, after which they will stick to your ribs. The donuts, I mean. If you've got your teeth stuck to your ribs, call a doctor. Top Pot was not exactly a haunt of mine when I lived in Seattle, but when I'm visiting friends in my old neighborhood, well the place is just a couple blocks away. How can I not go? I will agree that the coffee is not quite Vivace, but as for being lumped in with Starbucks? Madness. Also (and I recognize this might shred any coffee-related credibility I have, but I will continue nonetheless), they offer an Ovaltine Latte there that I tried on a lark but has quickly become one of my favorite "fluffy coffees" ever. As for the donuts, well, if you like cakey, you can't go wrong here. If you're one of those krispy kreme types, well, hey, that's why there's a giant corporate entity known as krispy kreme. To serve godless heathens such as yourself. The line can be very long, especially late on weekend mornings. And yes, the place is filled with hipsters, but it's on Cap Hill. Were you expecting nuns or maori warriors or something? read more

I'm bumping them up a star because lo and behold, these days I'm often in that corner of the city looking for a caffeine fix at an ungodly hour of the morning. Often there are people in line who are obviously still drunk from the night before and they are total jackasses but the baristas are super nice regardless and I appreciate it. I'm still appreciating the clean bathrooms but I wish they had a decent non-sweet food option. I can't stomach a donut first thing in the morning and the rosemary cheese scone is really bland and dry. I mean, obviously I can't complain too much, since they have 'donut' in their freaking name but a girl can dream, right? read more

As an aficionado of all things delicious and not nutritious, I have eaten many a donut. Top Pot is as good as it gets in the realm of donuts. Especially when you get there early and the donuts are super fresh. I went here again after a long absence while I attempted to work off my last visit to Top Pot and was not disappointed. My maple old fashioned was delicious - gooey on the outside, chewy and moist on the inside. My kid got a chocolate sprinkle donut and I don't know if he's reliable as a critical reviewer but he said it was YUMMY! My americano was not just coffee+water and the large mug for coffee drinks "for here" is a nice touch. Tons of places to sit, both inside and out and even an awning for those days when it's sprinkling but otherwise nice enough to sit outside. Pretty good music on most of the time, and friendly service. So two years after reviewing this place for the first time I'm adding a star. Keep on kicking a** Top Pot and I'll keep ignoring my diet. read more

It's dangerous how close this Top Pot is to me... because these doughnuts are phenomenal!!! Their glazed old fashioned will make you think you died and went to heaven. As will pretty much any of the other options. If it were possible, I'd make my entire diet consist solely of Top Pot Doughnuts. read more

Top Pot is more than just doughnuts. It's amazingly delicious doughnuts, fresh, delectable coffee, and a cozy atmosphere to indulge in a little sugary snack while you satisfy your caffeine craving. Having been recommended to me by several trusted sources, I knew Top Pot had to be a featured stop on my inaugural visit to Seattle. Luckily, this location was very close to where I was staying. We stopped by to get our caffeine fix one afternoon, but were sad to see that the doughnut selection was limited. No worries though, we just came early the next morning to grab an assorted dozen to share with friends. My favorites by far were the glazed old-fashioned and the maple bar. The simplicity of the glazed old-fashioned really hit home with me - I could've easily eaten a few of these if left unattended. The maple bar was also quite delicious - not too sweet or cloying - really just perfect. The coffee was excellent as well. Cold brew has become my standard order, and Top Pot's did not disappoint, offering the perfect bite to the sweetness of the doughnuts. read more

I freaking live for the Homer Doughnut...for those of you that don't get it - that would be the pink one with the sprinkles. Doh... During that horribly dark time when I managed a bunch of emotionally stunted salespeople, I would bring these to our weekly meeting in hopes of holding their attention for 30 minutes, buying a little affection, and getting them high enough on sugar that they might actually do their jobs for an hour or so following. Mission accomplished on all counts. These things are pure doughnut LOVE. If you think you don't like doughnuts, I am telling you that you like these. You LOVE these. Crispy, thickly iced, lovingly sprinkled or filled. Top Pot's actually make you feel good, as opposed to nauseated and bitchy within a few moments of eating one ala Krispy Kreme. Thank the Baby Jesus for this place - if not for these things I might actually have to buy smaller pants, and I have no time to shop for silly shit like pants! read more

Friendly, accommodating service. Poor guy behind the counter had to deal with 5 buzzing southern California girls on a visit, trying to buy the perfect dozen. In general, I liked the old-fashioned donuts better than their rounded donuts since they're more cake-y and moist. My personal favorite was the old-fashioned pumpkin. Laid back and probably my ideal place to study. Coffee and donuts? Wall to ceiling windows? Perfection. read more

I hate Krispy Kreme, I really do. Unsatisfying pieces of sickly sweet sugared air. I once asked a friend "friend, how can one of these satisfy you?" to which he responded "you eat six of them"... wrong wrong wrong. I like my doughnuts to satisfy in the single serving form - heavy in that way that only a fresh old fashioned can be. Top Pot delivers exactly the kind of doughnuts I crave. Sitting in one of the window seat with a doughnut, coffee, and book is my idea of a perfect fall day. The space is big enough to accommodate the traffic and those who want to camp out for a while and soak in the ambiance. read more

I ducked in here real quick to try some of Top Pot's doughnuts. They were pretty good! I got an espresso kind of doughnut which had a very good flavor to it! I bought Steve a double chocolate doughnut and it was tasty as well. I bought a hot Chai Tea and was out to dash back to my car before the two hour limit was up. The tea kept me nice and warm on the brisk Autumn walk back to the car. I would come back here and relax more but finding a parking space is very difficult in this area. read more

Caveat -- i'm a bit of a glutton for donuts, so it's hard for me to rate ANY donut shop with less than 4 stars. That said, Top Pot on Summit was a pretty stellar experience for me. Anita C. is right, these are the Anti-Krispy Kreme. They are dense, made with some love and taste like a donut, not candy. They also had some pretty good coffee and a great, peaceful shop to hang for a few minutes to read the paper. Not sure what the few digs on staff are all about -- they were super friendly and patient with me. As for donuts -- i got a glazed cake donut which was awesome, BUT I had some severe donut envy of my bro's Chocolate donut with cinnamon and sugar topping...hmm, now i feel contradictory, cause that sounds a bit like candy! Anyway, go to Top Pot, donuts are good for you. read more

This is the first place I discovered that dipping Top Pot Doughnuts in Coffee is magnificent, majestic, mind-blowing*, shockingly striking, stunning, wonderful, wondrous, zero cool* ++but by itself they are also ambrosial, an appetizing choice, delectable, delightful, divine, enticing, fit for a king* or queen*, good, heavenly, luscious, mouthwatering, nectarous, out of this world*, palatable, piquant, pleasant, rich, sapid, savory, scrumptious, succulent, super, sweet, tasteful, tasty, tempting, toothsome. To me Top Pot Doughnuts is more than these words can say, Yum =P This place has a mini Library where I do my research to take control of the world while enjoying Life's goodness. read more

Skip the coffee and the apple fritter. I'm sorry, but they are really not that good. My top two things to get at Top Pot: Raspberry Chocolate Cake doughnut (I seriously ate THREE on my trip) and drumroll please... MAPLE BARS! I would like to thank Seahawks player Golden Tate for jackin a maple bar at 3am, well after Top Pot is closed and well before they open, while drunk. The story caught the attention of my boyfriend who then insisted that we check out the doughnut that would cause such a ruckus. We didn't go to the same location, but they are the same doughnuts so coming here worked out anyway. I don't blame Golden Tate for craving Maple Bars one bit. They are OFF THE HOOK! They remind me of eating pancakes except about a zillion times better because I don't even really like pancakes that much. I'd eat them only if placed in front of me but otherwise, I wouldn't order them myself. Same thing with maple flavored things in general. For some reason though, Maple Bars are a perfect balance of sweet maple and heavenly, puffy doughnut (also another thing I don't even usually eat). The bars are relatively large and I inhaled one in less than two minutes, and it would have been faster than that but I was trying to savior it. I'm so glad I don't live in Seattle because I'd be going to Top Pot and Ezell's for every meal, just like I did on my vacation, and I'd be about 500+ pounds. So. Delicious. read more

I love to put on my comfy shoes and hit the streets with Ryan. We usually have the loveliest, most interesting walks; on the day Ryan brought me to Top Pot as a surprise AND a surprising, indulgent escapade (he is the one who keeps my calorie count disciplined), we were enjoying a sunny, crisp afternoon while strolling without a specific direction...well, he had Top Pot in his mind. I thought we were just wandering around. Yeah...there's nothing like a walkable city! And it's even better when it has compelling areas to explore. Capitol Hill has amazing streets with lots of character. Walking through this neighborhood, allows you to have an almost sociological relevant experience when it comes to people watching. Window shopping is delightful (and sometimes amusing), and there's the ubiquitous Space Needle, with which one has close encounters on every corner, everywhere. There are also the unexpected, little neighborhood gems like Top Pot. It has a great "I'm vintage" ambiance. Walls of books to read surround you while you peruse the latest happenings in the city and around, thanks to all the newspapers available for reading. They have a cool old phone, just the one I want for my place. The music selection is good (at least it was when we went). They didn't have many doughnuts that afternoon, but among the selection, there were some we were eager to nibble on. Ryan had the Cinnamon Cake, and I had the Maple Cake. We shared, exchanged pieces and enjoyed mixed flavors...these perfectly sweet, melt-in-your-mouth, baked rings are worth coming back. Ryan enjoyed a delicious hot cocoa cup, and told me the whipped cream was terrific (sadly, I don't do whipped cream...it's one of my few willpower non-breakable commitments). I had a latte: good coffee to accompany the sweet treats. Ryan considered that it wasn't only about the doughnuts: he loved having this afternoon snack in a place he thought had a very cool "library feel". I agree with him. We had a good share of sugar that later kept us walking for 5 more miles that day. Good times. read more

Their doughnuts are among the best. I never liked Krispy Kreme back when that was the fad, but I like me a glazed old-fashioned! I keep wanting to try some of the other flavors, but it's hard to resist the one I know I like and I can't eat more than one. The coffee is also delicious and a mocha and old-fashioned combo is heavenly! The staff is usually pretty cool and friendly, and the place definitely has that neighborhood coffee shop vibe. It's a fun place to come hang out for a bit, if you are lucky enough to get a table. I'd come here more often if there was any parking, but I suppose my waistline is thankful there isn't! read more

I don't like sweets. I basically never eat desert and would pretty much never eat chocolate. But even someone like myself can recognize the quality that is a Top Pot Doughnut. And in my humble opinion, the apple fritter is the crown jewel in their doughnut repertoire. For all you Canadians, I find their doughnuts remind me a lot of Tim Horton doughnuts but a bit softer. Although I usually snag my apple fritter from Bauhaus, it is comforting to know that they're also available at one of the eleventy billion Starbucks that have carpet bombed this fine city. read more

OK, I live in Portland but was born in Seattle. There needs to be a "Donut Off" competition between Toppot and VooDoo. I suggest that it be held in Centralia. (Halfway between Seattle and Portland). It could be held at the Country Cousin restaurant. Both Toppot and VooDoo are AMAZEBALLS!!! read more

Two words: Apple. Fritter. This is the good gospel; stray from this path and ye shall be struck down mercilessly. read more

Plain Chocolate Cake (donut) or Double Chocolate A cup of Americano ...from Top Pot can make my day. Any day. It tastes good. AND Top Pot's dough nut just look so RIGHT on one of those little donut plate, I like it so. read more

I wish I had never checked out the nutrition facts online. That said, the doughnuts are worth the calories. I tend to favor the filled, risen doughnuts, but they are all good. The coffee is also awesome. I buy the whole bean packages to make at home sometimes. And if I feel like picking up a drink there, they have soy milk for lattes, which is helpful for a lactard like me. If you want to try a unique drink, Top Pot serves ovaltine lattes. Reminds me of my grandparents. But still tasty. The ambiance is cozy, there are plenty of plugs for your laptops, and there is good and friendly service. What more do you need from a coffee/doughnut shop? read more

After circling around the area for 20 minutes to find parking, I finally walked in to try my first Top Pot donut. I tried the chocolate glazed. What a disappointment. It was stale and not enough of the chocolate glaze. Reminds me of donuts that you get at grocery stores. Maybe I'll try other locations, but so far...strike 1. read more

One morning at my old internship, my supervisor brought in a dozen donuts from Top Pot. I was excited - gleeful, even! - when I first found them that morning. Top Pot is really popular at my old office and I had been dying to try them. I picked up a cinnamon one. Being the neurotic person I am, I inspected it carefully before immediate consumption. But no immediate consumption ever went down because I found a thick, curly strand of strawberry blonde hair not ON my donut, but rather, wrapped AROUND the length of my donut. No one in my department has curly, strawberry blonde hair. And if you'll refer to the left hand corner of this review, you'll notice that I have black hair, so it certainly wasn't my own ... Disgusting. I'll stick to mass produced Krispy Kreme doughnuts from now on, thanks. read more

Whoever thought of this marketing coffee house with donuts is a genius. People come in throngs to Top Pot to get their gourmet donuts. The space is dim, cozy, with a lot of vintage flair. Even their donuts reflect a certain old school charm about them. We got their coffee, apple fritter, and a glazed blueberry donut ... all of which *minus the coffee* were huge. I liked how the blueberry donut * my favorite kind* was not too sweet and the apple fritter ,though fit for a bear to finish was good from start to finish. Of the two donuts, I didn't particularly think they were outstanding from donuts in other stores where I'd pay a dollar or less. But I get it - it's really a coffee shop that serves donuts and hence the more expensive price. If you're pondering about coffee -- get it. I does well to cut the sweetness of the donuts. Great study and hang out space and of course.. love the free wi -fi. :-) read more

A friend introduced us to the cakey goodness of Top Pot doughnuts. I think these are the best doughnuts I've ever had. We ordered two dozen to bring back to Cali and when we bumped ourselves off our flight to let some kids make it back home (stupid Alaska Airlines), we ended up with doughnuts for dinner, doughnuts for snack, doughnuts for breakfast. The sheer variety of doughnuts is astounding and all of them were excellent. It made me wonder why I liked Krispy Kreme at all. Oh how I wish there was Top Pot in Cali, but I guess I have another excuse to go back to Seattle. read more

Disappointing behavior. Normally the location is so busy that there really ain't time for the folks working to be engaging in conversation. just before 9 AM this morning it was very quiet, just a few customers sitting down and no line. The two behind the counter were having a conversation about a former employee named Kevin, who I gather from comments was more in the way than beneficial to the workflow. One of the two made the comment "You know how you have to treat some people like they have a disability, that's what we just need to do with him. Well he is never coming back so it doesn't matter" this was completely inappropriate to be discussing in front of customers let alone making comments regarding disabilities. This conversation made me very uncomfortable and made me feel regret for spending my money there today. Im not going to be visiting again. And Kevin, good luck out there. I hope you find a better fitting team to join. read more

Apple Fritter. Old Fashioned. Bavarian Creme. Maple Bar. Chocolate frosted. ALL handmade! Do you need another reason not to check this place out? I almost always get just normal drip coffee since it seems to go well with doughnuts so I can't say much about the espresso. The wi-fi is solid and its in kind of a quiet part of Capital Hill which makes this a great place to get some work done. It seems like most people think the same as there are a lot of laptops here so it might not be the best place to have a loud conversation with your friends but they do have tables outside so its a win-win for everyone. read more

Let me first start off by saying that I enjoy writing a review while I am sitting in the very place I am reviewing. Four stars. For the delicious variety of donuts, for the drip coffee (hard to find amongst the glorious espresso snobbery of Seattle), for the cozy atmosphere. For The Smiths and Bowie and Byrne -- and then, Little River Band -- and THEN, Color Me Badd-- playing in succession while I type this, on solid WiFi. I might even give Top Pot Capitol Hill five stars if the Alterna-Girl at the counter wasn't such a bitch to me. But she is. This is the third time she's been behind the counter while I've been here. All three times she glares at me, cuts me off while I'm speaking, and gives me major attitude. This time I am here with a friend of mine and she was snotty to both of us. Doesn't listen to me when I say small (last time she bitterly corrected me: "eight ounce".) This time she handed me a large when I asked for an eight ounce, and when I spoke up and said "eight ounce..?" she made a face and said something to the dude next to her at the register, laughed, glared, angrily changed it to a small, brusquely handed me my change, etc etc. I tipped her a buck anyway. I've been a barista and I know we all have bad days. But still. Of course, when her little ear-plugged bull-nosering friends came in, she was a sweetheart. My friend commented to me that she is acting like we remind her of the girls she disdainfully hated when she was in high school. Maybe she isn't over it yet. Hopefully her day gets better. I just want my eight ounce drip while listening to my Metallica and my Fleetwood Mac. Top Pot is good for that. read more

I almost feel bad writing this, because I can see how many people really like their donuts, but I just don't. I tried the Bavarian cream donut last time, and could only manage about 2 bites. It tasted kind of like super sweet raspberry cough syrup to me. Today I had a plain frosted donut, and it was just kind of blah. Not terrible this time, but not really worth eating more than half. The coffee's pretty good though, and the decor is noteworthy, if you're into that. They have really great floor to ceiling built in bookshelves, and beautiful light wood paneling. Seating has been pretty scarce when I've gone, but it was a weekend both times, so that's to be expected. read more

Want to go to a coffee shop with half-assed coffee, excellent doughnuts, and pretentious bastards not socializing in person, but on their computers??? (Sometimes even two people at the same table, occasionally saying something to one another, but focused on whatever the hell it is they're writing)... Then come to Top Pot on Summit!!! I've been here many times. I love their doughnuts, I really do. That's what keeps me coming back. The maple bar - exquisite. The Powder Sugar Cake? To die for!!! The plain old-fashioned? Super tasty!!!! The coffee? It's not quite Starbucks, but it's pretty close (and that's not a compliment). But what really sets this place aside - the clientele ruin what could be a really great atmosphere, and the employees make it that much worse. Don't get me wrong, there's one girl who works there who is AbFab. The one with piercings and dreads...she is super nice, attentive, and seems to actually give a crap about the customer. The rest? They will treat you as if you are wasting their time, and intruding on their space (even with the three feet of counter between you and them). God forbid you take any extra time while ordering a dozen doughnuts...with nobody else in the building. If it weren't for the service, I'd give this place a three. If the coffee was better (ie: Different roaster), maybe even a four. But...well, I don't take rudeness well (except when it's me...then it's not rude, it's cool ;-)) So, you want a doughnut? They are wonderful here. But be sure to get out before you, too, become pretentious. read more

Yum. Donuts. Yum. Everything is good. Except, the last time I went in there, their bathroom was HIT UP. Like, "I don't know if I can do this" horrifyingly bad. Think of the stinkiest porta-potty you've ever been in and you've come close. I told the guy at the counter and he didn't seem to care. I judge a places cleanliness by their bathroom. I don't know if I can go back after that... read more

Absolutely the best donuts ever. The mythology is they found an old 1940s recipe for donuts and decided to make them and start a cafe. The cafe blossomed and boomed and they opened a second store downtown. These donuts will kill you. The last one I had was old-fashioned with raspberry frosting - I swear there were pieces of real raspberry in the frosting. They don't mess around with no fake ingredients. read more

Top Pot Doughnuts is the best donut shop in Seattle, bar none. But, admittedly, there aren't all that many doughnut shops in Seattle. So by default they kind of win. The doughnuts here are top tier, really large, and well crafted. Take your typical mom-and-pop doughnut place, make the doughnuts about 20% larger, put a little extra care into making them, and you have Top Pot. The ingredients don't seem all that much better, though. So don't go in expecting gourmet. The only thing keeping this place from getting 5 stars is a few little gripes of mine. One, they usually run out of doughnuts of some variety during the day. It's basically 1 batch for the entire day, as far as I can tell. That means getting there early if you absolutely must have certain varieties. You could probably hedge your bets and buy out the entire store in the early mornings and sell them for a mark up outside. The other gripe is the general population of people who go there. The place isn't that big, and there are limited seats. So, be a champ and don't go there and spend 3 freakin' hours on your Mac organizing your iTunes library while nibbling on that one glazed donut you could afford after dropping all your cash on the latest iPod to replace your 3 month old previous latest iPod. Get your donut and coffee, hang out for a bit, read some of your book, and when your donut is finished, go home. Buy some more donuts to take home too. Don't hang out there and limit the amount of seating for those who just wanted to casually sit, have a donut, and leave. read more
