“This may have been the best donut I’ve ever had. We got the custard donut and it was so so soft and delicious. It didn’t leave us with that heavy feeling most donuts do. We also got coffee, a cortado and latte. Both delicious. Lovely interior of the building as well!”
“Unfortunately this place spends on the atmosphere and not so much on the food. We got the vanilla cream and the chocolate marshmallow. The vanilla cream was tasty but the chocolate was lack luster and both were a bit grainy, like it had extra powder in it. The doughnuts themselves were nothing special. The entire experience was not worth $6 a doughnut.”
“The donuts were just okay, flavors are not really that special. There was a small amount of filling, and the actual bread was a little stale, actually. Could get better ones at Fuji Bakery nearby.”
“Unique decor, cute atmosphere at first glance. Small selection of filled donuts. Ordered two letters and tried two varieties. The passion fruit filling was inedibly tart. Dined in early on a sunny Sunday. Only one other patron in store. The floors were very noticeabley dirty. And the one employee working was not very interactive- just standing waiting without any expression for the entire time we were there. Pretty pricey for a fairly poor experience. Overall, wouldn't return.”
“Chocolate marshmallow donut was good but not great, and kinda pricey for the size. Latte was just okay and took awhile to come out… staff were really nice though and it’s a cute spot. $14 for an 8oz latte and a small donut is just a lot.”
