I support small businesses and this exemplifies that. 12pm we walked in and most of the donuts were gone so we waited 5 minutes. Picked up a fresh batch of a dozen. Apple fritters are great. The meatiness (doughiness) of the donut is significantly better than the air some businesses serve at KK (Krispy Kreme). The glaze is very good. The chocolate glaze is decent bc it’s a chocolate glaze rather than a chocolate donut. The old fashion sugar donut is good. I also wanted to tasted each donut the next morning to see how it measures up. It’s average, on par, with any other donut place. Overall, the place is old school from the 1970s. And a friend said that this placed is packed on weekends with lines long longer than a Disney summer. Point? It’s a great place.

This reminds me of my absolute favorite Asian family donut place in California! The flavors and textures are perfect. They only make a certain amount, and will most definitely be sold out of most varieties by early afternoon, so go sooner than later, but if you go a bit later they'll be starting on old fashioned for the next day, do you might get some super fresh. So delicious, the prices are very reasonable, the nice family from Cambodia are so helpful and friendly, and I will definitely be returning! The building isn't fancy, but who cares when it's clean, the food is good, and you're not eating there anyways.

I love a good classic glazed donut. Soft, fluffy, and fresh. They are consistently delicious. All the standard favorites, not trendy, just the classics like bars, twist, and raised done to perfection. This is a grab and go place so no atmosphere to speak of. You won't care as you snarf down the donut in your car on your way to work.

Ate half of these before I thought to take a picture. It's literally the best donut shop I've ever visited. Classic flavors done so well that every donut shop that is foolish enough to open nearby goes out of business (looking at you Dolly's Donuts). Every local knows this place, but you'll drive right past it if you don't know it's there. They have donuts into the afternoon but do start running out of some varieties. So freaking good, seriously. Just go already. Love the maple bars.

The BEST place to grab some donuts. So light and fluffy and not too sweet. Does get really busy around 8 but worth the wait

These are the best doughnuts! Seriously, warm, with a light crispness that other doughnut shops wish they could make. I've traveled a fair amount in doughnut country and these guys do it right! I would highly recommend trying some! You'll find all of the classics, like glazed, raspberry filled, with or without powdered sugar, doughnut holes, maple bars, and more! This place is popular enough that you might have to wait in line just to get in, but it's totally worth it!
