You won't look at Dunkin', Giant, Krispy, or Tastykake the same again. For my buck, these folks make the most fabulous doughnuts I've ever had (not that I'm going to stop looking for more mind you. :D) They offer a wide variety of gourmet doughnuts, including some fabulous types - blueberry pie, french toast, Boston cream, french apple, and chocolate covered cherry to name a few. They're frosting is perfect, their filling delicious, and - this is key - the dough of the doughnut is perfectly soft without being soggy or squishy. They are truly excellent and they're only $9 for a box of a dozen.

iI went on a ride along with a friend to Ambler to look at a rental property she owned. On the way back to Philly, on a whim we stopped at Ambler donuts to get a treat for the ride back. After seeing all those pretty donuts, and the tantalizing varieties, my friend ended up buying a whole dozen. Some of the standout concoction were: Key Lime, Lemon Merangue, girl scout thin mint & samosa, and pumpkin spice to name a few. The ones I tried were delicious, the cake portion was very light and fluffy and the filling & toppings were flavorful but that over sweet and I really appreciate that because as I get older sugar is the enemy! The server there was very niice and the coffee was high quality. The only minus I could see was that they close at 2 p.m. Everyday. Trust me, it would behoove you to be there before they close

Their donuts are good but how do you not have ANY donuts on faschnaut day 2015 at 10:30 am?
(1)M W.
Yummy. I love how they always have many varieties and their staffs are incredibly friendly. Love it.
(4)Madeleine S.
They are nice....but always get my order wrong even when i repeat it , just in case....so if keeps happening, then i wont be comming back...
(2)Danielle N.
We have a vendor that comes into our office and brings these donuts once a week. They are by far my favorite donuts of all time.I love the choc frosted with rainbow jimmies! I wish Ambler was closer.
(5)Hailey G.
Okay so I love these donuts! The problem I have is with the drive-thru. People are on their way to work and go to a drive-thru because it is supposed to be fast and convenient. I once waited 22 minutes in the drive-thru! I would have left but my car was blocked in. I must add that there were only TWO cars in front of me. That is so ridiculous. Another time, I almost parked and walked inside but there was only one car in the drive-thru so I took my chances. Big mistake! The person in front of me had a HUGE order and I sat there for 12 minutes. Now, when I go, which is not often because I'm usually in a hurry, I park and go in. You really need to address this because many of my friends complain about the same problem at your shop.
(4)P M W.
Okay, I'm not a huge doughnut fan. But I was driving by this morning, and got a half dozen just to try the place out. (I brought them home and shared) Light, fluffy, large, and to my surprise, NOT GREASY! I don't think I've ever had a non-greasy doughnut before! Flavors are varied from normal glazed to lemon meringue to sea-salted. The place is small, the service was fine, and it looked new and clean. What a difference from all the other doughnut shops I've ever visited! This place is quality, not just get 'em in, get 'em out.
(5)Zach V.
I live across the street from Ambler Donuts and I finally stopped in one morning before work. I've heard several people say good things about this place and I have to agree. I only tried (2) different donuts but both were fantastic. If donuts weren't so bad for you I would make this a daily stop. If you want fresh donuts for a fair price you should stop in and satisfy your sweet tooth. -Update I'm not sure what type of cream cheese they use on bagels but its not very good.
(4)Erin M.
Located in the new and ho-hum Ambler Gateway shopping center, the newly opened Amber Donuts is a mom and pop's gem. I heard about it from Chowhound, and made a mental note that I needed to hit it up on my next trip to Ambler to see a movie at the amazing theater there. I would have loved if Ambler Donuts had opened up on the main strip in town. I can imagine running in for a donut, stashing it in my purse, and making my way over to the theater for a show and a secret snack. Alas, you pretty much have to drive here, but on the bright side there is plenty of parking. My friend, husband and I made a trip here last night and split a half dozen (pictured). The sour cream donut was good, if a little stale. It was around 6pm, so I can't blame the place for that. However, I would love for them to do a fresh set of donuts for the after work crowd! I wasn't in love with the red velvet and I definitely tasted food coloring. The blueberry pie was interesting and pretty good; its filling was on the tart side while it had a very sweet streusel and icing on top. The chocolate filled and chocolate iced donut left much to be desired as the filling was a watered down pudding. I want to come back and try some others like the standard jelly, lemon and bavarian cream. I just didn't have any room left this time around!
(4)Angie K.
Boston Cream and Red Velvet. DO IT. They also have a drive-thru. You order at the small menu that faces Butler Pike. It's easy to miss! The coffee isn't half bad either. I'll have to revisit FedNuts to see, but this place may edge them out...
(5)Joey B.
If you are in the area, this spot is a must-stop. Lucky for me I have friends I visit on a fairly regular basis that live just around the corner. The service is nothing to RAVE about, but nothing to complain about either. I do like that its a mom and pop type place. Not sure if I've ever had to wait, no matter what time I stop in. While the quality of the donuts is quite high, the interesting flavors are what bring me back every time. A good way to judge a donut shop is on one of its most simple creations: Glazed. And AD does NOT disappoint. As far as favorites, mine is easily their French Toast - taste bud heaven. A definite runner up is the PB&J - which seems to be stuffed with actual grape jelly as opposed to the red jelly filling that a certain mainstream donut chain uses, with a slathering of peanut butter on top. Perfection. Other notables: Blueberry Pie, Sour Creme, Samoas.
(5)Vanessa L.
Visited Ambler Donuts while on a business trip. Super friendly service and great selection. We ordered a dozen (my favorite was the pumpkin glaze) and a box of holes for $17 total. He, I believe the owner, also gave us an extra pumpkin glaze since they're smaller. Highly recommended!
(5)Jodi W.
So good my Dentist asks me to bring them for him and his staff! No joke! When he saw my address (the office is in Audubon) he said I must bring Ambler donuts! They loved this story at Ambler donuts too! Love when I have to drop my SO off at the train and can stop by for some goodness. Drive through service is so convenient and fast. Chocolate glazed, Boston creme, Sour cream, glazed and just about any other flavor is bound to be delicious! Love to support a local business and there is definitely a difference in quality. The local Dunkin Donuts is across the street and I would never choose there over Ambler!! Service with a smile too!
(5)Quyen T.
Yum! I recently started going to Temple's Ambler's campus and I already hated the drive but since I found this place, made it worth it. They have such variety in flavors! I actually got over whelmed and started to hop up and down in excitement. Pb&j? Yes. Red velvet? Oh yeah. Blueberry pie? Dear gosh. French toast?! Yup, getting a dozen. I brought extras for my best friends and they were so excited and loved every crumb! I used to love sweets but I've been cutting it back so I was very unsure about the donuts, I mean its a huge no no for a diet but how could I resist? The flavors weren't too over powering, they complimented each other and since it was in the form of a donut, it wasn't as heavy as I thought it would be. I was pleasantly surprised it wasn't too sugary as well! Delish. I'm definitely coming here more often.
(5)Kevin S.
Tried their glazed donut before and loved it so I got it again. Ordered a coffee and asked what else he recommended. He suggested the French toast donut. Go figure it tastes like French toast but it was so good. Definitely gotta go there again.

Every Saturday morning, my kids ask, "Can we go to Ambler Donut". And everytime they ask, I say..."of course". This place is great. The donuts are magnificent and you can really tell these folks put some thought and care into their product. I think the only problem they suffer from is space. Its an awkward location, but you can't fault them for that because I get the impression their popularity snuck up on them way fast.
(4)Wade C.
So, the wife and I came here for breakfast one Saturday morning. It was delicious. Absolutely delicious. I ordered two and my wife ordered two. I got the apple fritter and the frosted chocolate donut. First, the apple fritter is huge. There are two types of apple fritters: one that is more dense and sweet and one that is flufflier/cakier and less sweet. This one was fluffy and less sweet. It seemed to lack apple in it, but it was still great. The frosted chocolate was fantastic. The coffee was okay, but that's not the reason we went. We went for donuts. The place is nice, but small. Then again, you don't need to loiter, because if you do, you'll probably eat a dozen donuts yourself. They have a drive-thru, which I did not expect. The staff was very friendly. Would recommend to anyone. We can't wait to go back.
(4)Stefanie T.
Seriously the best donuts I've ever had. I stopped by one afternoon; they had a full selection of delicious donuts. I was sold when I saw red velvet on their menu. I got a half dozen to try out a few, among my favorites were the peanut butter cup, of course the red velvet, and the boston cream. These donuts are light, yet have rich icings that make them impossible to stop eating.
(5)James S.
Finally got over to Ambler Donuts after reading reviews on them for about two years. At 8:30 it wasn't crowded at all so I had time to really select each donut carefully. Went with the Blueberry Cake, Blueberry Pie, Boston Cream, Red Velvet, Toasted Coconut, and one other that's slipping my mind because I believe my wife ate it. I absolutely loved the blueberry pie and red velvet. So fresh and soft. The icing on the red velvet was delicious. Toasted coconut I had the next morning and it definitely wasn't as yummy as the ones I ate the day before, and it wasn't covered in the coconut on all sides like I was hoping for. The Boston cream was very tasty, but I was disappointed in the amount of filling in mine. There seemed to be an inch gap all the way around the donut before you got to the cream. After two bites I started to question if they put any in. Don't get me wrong, the taste was great, I just need it to have more of that cream filling. If I make it back up that way I'll definitely grab another one and update. Overall a very good experience and I would recommend it to any donut lover in or around Ambler.
(4)Clayton L.
Context: Buying a dozen donuts for coworkers Time of Visit: Monday, 8:30AM I drive past Ambler Donuts every morning and thought I would give them a try, versus the Dunkin Donuts across the street. As soon as you walk in, you know you've come to the right place. They have many different flavors, including Peanut Butter Cup, Blueberry Pie, and a chocolate covered Red Velvet. The regular cake donut is simple, light, and delicious. Their jelly-filled donuts are a little on the sweet side, but if that is what you are looking for, you will not be disappointed. The staff is very friendly and patient if you change your order. The interior is very understated, with a few seats outside the front door, if you want to sit outside and enjoy your donut. They also have a drive-thru, if you are in a hurry to grab-and-go. If you are thinking of grabbing a donut and a coffee on your way into work or to enjoy during lunch, I would heartily encourage supporting a local, quality product at Ambler Donuts!
(4)Jen L.
I'm finally getting around to writing a review of Ambler Donuts. If you live or work around Ambler, consider yourself very lucky to have what's probably one of the best donut places in the Philly metro area. I have been here numerous times and have never been disappointed. The donuts are fresh, sweet and sinful. I've tried many varieties and contend that the glazed are the absolute best, as are the Boston cream. I agree that the French toast ones are fabulous too. I'd love if they got better coffee and/or an espresso machine to make real coffee drinks instead of convenience store style fake overly sweet "coffee" drinks from a machine. Aside from that, do yourself a favor and skip the mediocre Dunkin Donuts that you see on every block and go to Ambler Donuts. It's even worth going out of your way for if you're a foodie looking for a mission.
(5)Tracy M.
I have been to this establishment several times since they opened, so this review is based on the compilation of my experiences. I judge a good donut shop/bakery on the basis of their plain, yeast-dough glazed donut. If you can't master that simple task, then the fancier donuts don't stand a chance. I'm pleased to report that Ambler Donuts knocks it out of the park with their simple glazed donut. It's not greasy, it's light and airy and most importantly it is not overly sweet. It's just the right balance that makes it very enjoyable. They turned me around on cream-filled donuts. The French Toast is amazing. They really got the flavor scheme right. My favorite is the blueberry, Pie or Pancake. Yes, they have both a Blueberry Pie donut AND a Blueberry Pancake donut. Again, it's just that combination of being light with just the right amount of sugar and flavor that makes it a real treat to have. I can think of one thing they can improve upon - the coffee. I would prefer a better quality coffee from them. But, then again, I may be spoiled because of the set-up I have in my own kitchen. I think one time I got a donut that had next to no filling in it. I considered this to be an anomaly, as all the other ones have been filled perfectly. I urge you to support Ambler Donuts. It's a great local business that puts out a quality product. I like the drive-thru window. It might make for a nice hang-out, if they put up some tables and chairs. It's refreshing to see quality hand-made products in the community. I would love it if they maintained a website or Twitter feed with that day's donut specials. Or, maybe that's just too tempting.
(5)Marc S.
Amber Donuts offers some creative and inspired flavors, but the taste and texture of the donuts was just OK. They weren't particularly bad, but they weren't particularly good either. If someone gave me one of their donuts and told me it was from a grocery store or a famous donut chain, I would believe it. I'd like to say I'll be back to give them another shot, but the only way I can see that happening is if they happen to be between me and my normal donut place.
(3)J D.
Way better than dunkin, but there doesn't seem to be much else to compare it too in Ambler. (I might be being harsh because my favorite donut shop is federal donuts). Great variety for donut lovers.
(4)TJ K.
Don't ask questions...just go...you'll thank me! Aside from the usual donuts, here are some sample unusual donuts: - Chocolate Bavarian Cream - French Toast (has a cinnamon cream center that's to die for.) - Blueberry Pie (has a vanilla icing with crumbles on top.) - Peanut Butter and Jelly (yes, it's really good) - Etc. etc. etc. And an incredible apple turnover!
(5)Julie M.
I would give Ambler Donuts more stars if I could! Absolutely DELICIOUS! Everything I've had there has been so fresh. They have a huge variety of donuts. Their breakfast sandwiches are great too. Very reasonable pricing. After you try Ambler Donuts you'll be saying Dunkin WHO? Seriously try this place, I guarantee that you will not be sorry! EDIT: I'm editing because Ambler Donuts has closed their doors :(
(5)Danan R.
The pb and Boston cream are definitely my favorites. The red velvet is also a family favorite. They are addictive so be forewarned.
(5)Lan H.
The one thing that's missing is at least one lounge chair. Oh Ambler, you're not all glitz and glamour after all. GOOD Because Ambler Theater, Rita's, KC's Alley, and so many other institutions that have been around before the expensive tastes really began to arise...have made Ambler that cute and cozy town in which I grew up. Take THAT, Dunkin Donuts across the street: Ambler Donuts is now open! I've been to Ambler Donuts two times. The first time around, I was compelled to order a blueberry pie donut. Funny how that happened because I tend to steer clear of donuts other than the original cake donut (yeah, *yawn*). Also, it was summertime, so berries looked especially scrumptious. THe DONUT looked scrumptious. And it was! Great! With a medium hazelnut coffee, at a tough-to-beat cost I may add (!), I knew I was coming back. The second time around, then, was self-explanatory. Everything was just as spectacular as it was the first time around. Plus, the employees kept that same small-town hospitality that would make one feel so welcomed and loved, really :-) Oh thank goodness for coffee shops just before a commute to work. Thank goodness for Ambler Donuts!

Awesome Donuts!!!! Ambler Donuts serves up the best donuts around. Now that i have been to Ambler donuts i just can't imagine ever going anywhere else for Donuts. I recently needed a dessert to bring to a dinner party, and thought that a dozen donuts would be perfect. As it turned out, everyone was digging the donut's need a slice of cake when you can have you own personal cake rolled up in a donut.

Finally tried Ambler donuts today. I had a cinnamon raised and a glazed pumpkin donut. the Latter was light and fresh, considering it was almost noon. The pumpkin donut was heavier than I liked, and lacking in spice flavor. Still a business worth supporting.

I came all the way from north Carolina to sample these donuts (my daughter lives here).. Narrowing down the selection was very hard! We had: French toast donut- weighed about 2 pounds of pure yumminess Powdered sugar creme donut- best best ever. Fried crispy with a little crunch, fresh creme,, dipped in lots of powdered sugar. Red velvet- OMG enough said! Glazed - much better than DD or KK... Delicious! White frosted- my favorite so far... Chocolate frosted - saved what I hope is the best for last.. It's still waiting for consumption :) Too bad for DD which is just across the street. They should just Pack up and move out of town now!! Thanks Ambler Donuts!!!

If Ambler Donuts was closer to my home, I'd be 700 lbs and happy about it! Every different donut is as good as the next. My favorites are the "peanut butter and jelly," and the "red velvet."

I've been waiting for a valid excuse to write about Ambler Donuts, but the hard truth is, I'm not a huge fan of sweets. I'll take a steak over a donut any day of the week. Lord, I hath been reborn. My father had been raving about the place for ages, and the excuse finally presented itself a few Saturdays past when some brave members of my office team decided to volunteer for weekend work. Loving my co-workers as I do, I decided to bring in a dozen box. I was planning on stopping someplace much more well known due to time constraints, but dad would have none of it. So I took a mild backtrack and decided to give Ambler Donuts a try. First off, the staff are lovely folks. Talkative, and obviously very proud of their products. Secondly, it smells like what I imagine a house full of fairies and unicorns baking smells like. OK maybe that's laying it on a bit thick. Anyway, I asked him to make up a dozen for me.(9 bucks, totally awesome) His pick. Among the delights were a chocolate, a few Boston creams, blueberry jelly powdered, caramel apple and a host of other colorful and fancy creations. The Red Velvet stood out to me instantly, and I claimed it with my eyes. Woe be the coworker that reaches for The Red Velvet. Caps intended. I must have had a vibe out because thankfully, it was mine. And it was GOOD. Ambler Donuts received a glowing review from my co-workers who all took up from their cubicles to mill around the break room and speak in pastry-muffled tones about the awesomeness of our respective donuts. So cheers, Ambler Donuts. Everyone needs to try this place numerous times. Today was the second Saturday I picked up a dozen for my office mates and I'm hoping to sneak them in on a weekday to coerce my higher ups to change where we get our usual confectionery fair. Love this place, huge fan, and now the decision between savory and sweet just got a little harder for my palette.

The Boston Cream is to die for. Fresh. Creamy. Chocolately. My next favorite is the Chocolate Double Dutch. Concentrated chocolate taste. Did I mention I like chocolate? These donuts TASTE LIKE donuts! Unlike some national chains whose donuts taste like nothing. Nice Drive-thru with really quick service. Every employee I've dealt with here has been polite and well-mannered. Thank you, Ambler Donuts for, well, coming to Ambler.

I am typically not a big fan of donuts in general because I always find myself disapointed in dry donuts that have just a "drop" of filling. However, Ambler Donuts...this place has yet to disappoint! My wife and I love it! Her favorite is hands down the french toast donut, which she craves on a weekly basis.. and my favorite is probably the lemon meringue, which sits right on the fine line of being delicious without being too sweet or tart. The blueberry pie is also very good without being too sweet. Side note: While I've never utilized it, this place has a drive thru window which I think is pretty cool for a small donut shop. Try em out - I'm pretty sure you'll wanna go back.

Me and the girl I work with ate almost everyone of three dozen doughnuts. What does that say for a review, They were brought by a sales rep. We live an hour away and are considering a road trip. THEY ARE GREAT!!!! Especially the blueberry, chocolate covered jelly and maple blueberry.

I've visited heaven on earth and it's in Ambler. You must have the Black and White. Once you have these donuts you will never stop at Dunkin again. Pat & Dan are passionate about donut making and they seem to have an endless supply of creativity. There aren't many places you can get a sugar induced coma for $1 but this is one of them!
(5)Zoey O.
dude, is this place kidding me! awesome awesome awesome. i've live in ambler for 2 months and been here several times already. Apple fritter is my personal fave, but every donut is light, fluffy, delicious and made to perfection. keep up the good work. seriously amazing. Oh my this place changed ownership in summer 2014 and it's not good. Very disappointing and upsetting.

A heart warming (and heart clogging) boon of American excess. Phenomenal donuts and a must do for anyone passing through the area. Why the fuck you'd be in Ambler, PA, I don't know, but seriously, if you are...

Dunkin Donuts on steroids. Donuts are huge and over stuffed with cream or custard. Coffee is hot and the staff friendly. The only drawback to this place is the shortage of dining space inside the store. I'd suggest knocking through the wall and taking over the small space to the right of the shop. A few comfy chairs and a fireplace would keep this place hopping throughout the winter months and offer an alternative to Starbucks for those of us who appreciate local businesses.

Finally a donut shop closer to home. These guys make a good donut and get lots of weekend morning traffic. The Boston Cream are great and so are the cream filled. Blueberry and apple are good too. If you want a good donut then come here.
(5)Jonathan C.
Better than dunkin donuts---I'm a big fan of the blueberry pancake donut...it really tastes like blueberry pancakes!

These are some awesome doughnuts! Went on that silly October snow day searching for a good coffee. DH suggested Ambler Doughnuts as we kept saying we wanted to stop at some point. They had a great variety of types plus muffins and doughnut holes. We both got a glazed each, I got a Boston Cream and DH got a glazed chocolate covered. They were AMAZING! Best doughnuts I have ever had. There are no words for the glazed. You much get them when you go. The Boston Cream was perfect! It had just the right amount of filling AND the chocolate on the top was excellent! DH loved his chocolate glazed as well. We don't eat doughnuts often but this will be the ONLY place I get them from now on. Looking forward to trying some muffins too. ALSO - Excellent coffee and great service! I enjoyed the food/sugar coma that came later in the form of a nice nap. :)

Kids loved them. Great selection. Most were extremely good. Cream doughnuts were a little light in cream. If they offer a double stuff cream for a little extra they will earn the 5th star.

The peanut butter and jelly donut is a revelation.
(5)Maria B.
Yumtastick! French Toast Doughnut is pure joy. Really nice staff too.
(4)Tamara C.
Delicious! I went for the French Toast Donut (which was great), but I stayed for the chocolate-covered cherry! Didn't appear to be anything spectacular, but one bite and I had a favorite. I don't even like real chocolate-covered cherries. The coffee wasn't bad, and the staff was very friendly. Can't wait to go back.

Had an appointment in town and arrived about an hour early. Drove in circles til I found Ambler Donuts. OMG!!!!! I had the Red Velvet and the French Toast, both outstanding. Now I live in Chicago so I won't be able to get back too often but I wish I had a donut shop like this near me!! BTW - The coffee was second to none! Great job!!

If you like donuts...if you truly like donuts, there is no excuse to pass on ambler donuts. The blueberry crumb is worth four laps @ mondauk.

Donuts are one of my favorite foods, and Ambler Donuts has some great ones. Normally I'm not big on fillings and weird flavors, but this is the one place where I would recommend them. The Peanut Butter and Jelly is just as it sounds and has a perfect grape filling (not at all like a cheap jelly that alot of donut places use), the French Apple is great, and the Lemon Meringue is excellent too. And they're not even expensive... the price for a dozen compared pretty closely to Dunkin Donuts.
(5)N P.
Amazing donuts! Seriously some of the best I've ever had, and so far no flavor that disappoints. The donuts are rich and full and fluffy, the selection of flavors is great, with a couple off-the-wall flavors you won't find anywhere but a custom donut shop. Oh, and the coffee's pretty good too!
(5)Michael M.
Went early on a Monday. Excellent, fresh, made in the store. The creme filled was a little light on creme however the jelly was generously filled. The donuts are heavy, doughy, and if left on a napkin I bet will bleed grease. Just the way I like them. This is everything Dunkin in not. The owner was there. As I left I asked for some business cards and he said they were on the way. I told him, "Thats okay 'cause I'll be back". He looked at me dead serious and replied, "I know. I have my hooks in you." Boy does he ever. And it hurts so good.

Unique donut flavors. Very tasty. Also great bagel breakfast sandwiches. Too bad it closes at 2pm
(5)David H.
This place has great specialty donuts and a wide selection of em! Every time I bring donuts into work from here, all I get is praise on how good they are. If you want donuts, you got to try them at least once.
(5)Brian S.
Ambler Donuts needs to address their quality and consistency. After the decline in quality from the previous owner, I was hoping that the new regime would bring it back to where this place was when it opened. Unfortunately, that is not the case (yet). The donuts are very dense, and not light and airy. The glaze or toppings are often uneven or scarce. It feels very amateurish. I would say, it's unfortunate that Dunkin Donuts is across the street and it feels like they have fresher and more consistent donuts, even though Dunkin's aren't made on premise and are delivered in the middle of the night.

CLOSED FOREVER. :(. I went there this morning to try them for the first time, and they weren't open. Bummer! I posted on FB how disappointed I was, and a friend told me they are permanently closed.
(1)Josh W.
The donuts are excellent (I tried glazed, blueberry pie, and French toast), and the staff is super nice - they were sold out of the French toast donuts and as we were sitting outside enjoying what we'd gotten, they made one for us, fresh! We didn't ask them to do that, they just knew we were from out of town and wouldn't get another chance to have one so they brought it out to us as a surprise, for free! I definitely recommend this place, and please be as sweet to the staff as they were to us.
(5)Jenny H.
This ones a keeper. If you are craving a donut, come here for their French Toast and Samoa donuts. The blueberry pie is great as well, not too sweet. Every donut is yummy. They have speciality donuts depending on the holiday or season. My go to place when craving a donut and when not watching the waistline.
(5)Jason R.
Simple Math here: Great Tasting Donuts + Creative Donut Selections = Kick A** Donut Shop....My favorite was the Samoa Donut. It was very light and fluffy at my first bite and beyond. The texture reminded me of a croissant. All I wanted to do was keep biting as the texture and taste was something special. Without a doubt, one of their best sellers and a must to try!!! Other creative flavors as well were donuts such as Chocolate Raspberry, French Toast, and even Bacon!!! I am watching my cholesterol intake so I skipped the Bacon this time for the Samoa, Pumpkin topped with sweet cream cheese and crumbles, and French Apple (no raisins); all of which were donut-astic!

Quality of donuts have improved greatly under the new ownership and have been at its highest point in years.
