Came in on Saturday for some donuts and coffee to get my day in Durham started. This is so easy: service: awesome!
Coffee: awesome!
Donuts (glazed and chocolate iced): if not the best donuts I’ve ever had in my life, easily in the top 3.
Treat yourself! -
I have heard they have the best apple fritters in Durham. We went twice, months apart, trying to purchase them. This morning the place was totally empty, and the lone employee informed me they had none. I asked if there were specific days? The employee apologetically said, no. "He (I assume the owner) just makes them when he feels like it." Well, I don't feel like going back. Good luck with that business model, empty store guy.

We were visiting my wife in North Carolina and wanted to try this place for breakfast. Initially, I was disappointed that they didn't offer online ordering and pick up because it's so convenient, and it's 2024. I just thought that should be something they have, but when I got there, I understood why they probably couldn't do that.
They have donuts that are fillable. You get to choose the flavor of the donuts and then the filling itself. We didn't try any of that variety, but you could tell this is where indecisiveness and hungry shoppers get stuck 😅
The breakfast sandwiches were amazing. I watched the gentlemen make all three of ours. The eggs, the bacon, everything is cooked and assembled right in front of you.
I thought the donuts were good but unspectacular. I appreciated how fresh they were, and I liked that they weren't iced to the point where I felt like I needed to brush my teeth immediately in fear of cavities.
That all said, for 3 sandwiches and 6 donuts, I feel like $40 is a bit steep. We may try them again next time we visit because they have such a variety. -
I ordered an egg, cheese, and sausage croissant, donut holes, and a coffee this morning. My order took no less than 15mins and the sandwich wasn’t edible. The sausage was burnt beyond recognition and the bread was hard and fell apart. I didn’t venture deep enough to check the egg but I have my suspicions. I took a pity bite, really wish I hadn’t. The donut holes were decent and the coffee was coffee flavored, so there’s that. The place seemed great, I had high hopes, and will give them another go. Can’t bash the whole place for one sandwich and, given the opportunity, will gladly review them again with fresh eyes.

Overall, I enjoyed the donuts, I usually do whenever they’re brought to an event! So I really wanted to give them a try myself and patron them myself.
The donuts I got were decently priced and tasted good! I’ve never not been a fan of their donuts :)
Interior is not necessarily a place I would sit down and eat, which is fine. That doesn’t bother me. Not the reason for 3 stars.
My coffee was just a little bit hotter than lukewarm. Didn’t particularly appreciate that. It’s self serve coffee and it’s always a bad sign when you’re pouring it and don’t see any steam.
The 3 star review is for the customer service. The workers did not seem friendly at all and I just felt like they were pretty short with me. I didn’t see one smile or really get a greeting that made me feel welcome. Idk. Everyone has bad days, maybe both of the workers were having one. Nonetheless, I like to spend my money where I feel welcomed and didn’t particularly feel so here.
