    First time going to this newly opened location. Had to wait a little bit but they were very busy so this was understandable. These donuts were just as good as the ones I’ve had at the Lyndon location. I think they’re a perfect balance, not too light or dense. There were lots of donuts to choose from & new trays were being brought in as I was waiting. My only complaint is they didn’t have any breakfast sandwiches today. Definitely want to go back & try one some time. Staff was also very friendly.

    The staff was amazing. Friendly and welcoming. I have been wanting to try this place after hearing lots of people talking about their donuts. Worth the wait. We went in around 9:30 on Saturday and was a line for both drive thru and walk in. As expected. We also got an Apple fritter, long johns and donut holes. All were delicious. Donut holes were perfect. Two thumbs up. Happy to have this location close by!
