Yum!! The donuts here are so worth a visit! Very friendly bakery staff here and while the place isn’t anything fancy, the point is how delicious are the baked goods and they do NOT disappoint. The filled Bismarck donuts are super yummy, and they were even willing to make some extras on the spot out of the various fillings they had in store. The chocolate cake donuts were great too.

This bakery does not look fancy but their donuts are to die for. I wish I'd eaten one right then, so I could have bought more. They are light and airy and flavorful. The custard was perfect consistency. I was supposed to share with my boyfriend but I really didn't want to, and he didn't want to give up the jelly-filled either. They have a gift! Don't miss out...
