Visiting in from out of town, friends told me to try here for my sweet tooth, and they were 100% right. Went here all 5 days that I was here. ?

Googled donuts on a fluke. Found this gem. Old school 1980s bakery style. Great service. Mr. Al is a sweetheart btw.

A cute place with very kind service, unfortunately the donuts were just okay to subpar. We got both cake and yeast donuts and had two that had issues and two that were okay. For some reason the blueberry cake was extra dry and tasted floury. The one that really wasn't good was the strawberry filled. The donut itself was okay, but the filling was oddly bitter and didn't really taste like strawberry, just bitter with a slight sweetness.Our cinnamon crumb and cinnamon sugar were okay, a little dry, but not nearly as bad as the blueberry. The dryness may have been due to us eating them later in the day. I think the donuts are better than Dunkin or Krispy Kreme, but not as great as other family owned shops I've had. Their prices are great though so we may stop in earlier in the day and try again to see if they're better fresh and try something different.
