    Christmas Fancy Donuts
    Deirdre T.

    10 out of 10. No notes. The best glazed donuts I've had in this city. That means a lot considering I hail from HTown and the home of Shipley's. The fresh glazed was hot enough to satisfy but had cooled long enough for the glaze to really Tati k to the bread. My son had the red glazed Christmas donut and it came with a cute little candy cane ring as a souvenir. The parking lot was packed at around 8:20a and a lot of the specialty donuts had already been purchased but the workers were quick and efficient. Will definitely return to try those cinnamon rolls and get more of the warm glazed donuts.

    Donuts!!

    Oh wow! I went here based on the reviews on Yelp! It was awesome. Got a dozen donuts and donut holes. Our favorite was the chocolate covered cake donut. It's a whole in the wall feel but the service was wonderful. A pleasant surprise is your glazed donuts are hot!

    I experienced the Bakers Dozen for the first time last week... Let's just say it won't be my last! A coworker brought a bunch of glazed donuts into work, and they are hands down the BEST glazed donuts in the city! I typically only like cake donuts, but now I've been converted. They are thick, perfectly sweet, soft, and chewy. Not your average glazed donut! Do yourself a favor, go get some! Grab me a few while you're at it ;)

    I don't live too far from Bakers Dozen, but it's a good thing I don't live any closer. What an amazing array of fresh and pretty donuts! Anything you could think of, including seasonal items! Service is prompt and efficient, although the parking is scarce. Excellent!

    The donuts are so good! My faves are the glazed twists & honeybun, so yummy! Coming back every chance I get.

    This is what i ordered.

    I like the softness of the glazed donuts but it's too sweet! I ordered a coffee, i think it's white vanilla and it's too sweet also. I hope they can lessen the sweetness of there donuts and the coffee.

    Oh I'm sorry!! I've removed that inaccurate info. Thanks for the correction. Glad to know you're still in business, yay!!

    Apple crumble & apple cinnamon
    Angie T.

    It's easy to see why this place has been around for so long. Bakers Dozen has so many cute and creative donuts but I'll only order two when I come here because they're just that good. The Apple Crumble and the Apple Cinnamon are life. I can't decide which one I enjoy more, the crumble of Apple Crumble or the cinnamon sugary goodness of the Apple Cinnamon. Luckily I don't have to choose and just get half and half. Both are filled with warm and delicious apple filling and taste like the best apple pie you've ever had in your life but in donut form. They are little pillows of heaven. Normally I'm not a donut person, especially at breakfast. Don't get me wrong, they're good and everything but for breakfast I want savory, not sweet. Has Bakers Dozen changed this stance? Yes indeed. Don't let the line out the door stop you from trying them! So worth the wait for these babies!

    Just amazing. Their donuts are freshly made, the sugar rush will last for hours, their glaze Will leave a shining mark around your mouth for hours, asking you to go back for more. The glazed donut with creme filling is simply heaven.

    The best donuts. Hands down. Period. No competition! They are only open in the morning so hurry that way before they close! You get a free donut with every dozen you buy too. These are thick, heavenly, and perfectly sweet (not too sweet like KK)

    It was a dozen but I ate some

    There are a lot of choices out there but this truly is the best donut you'll ever eat in your life. It melts in your mouth.

    I have to say District has stepped up its food and coffee game a lot. I have been frequenting their…read morelocations more and more, especially the Elmwood one. I recently discovered their boozy coffees and that they sell Vietnamese coffee - eff the world condensed milk glory! So, freaking good. During the holidays, they sell egg nog lattes which are creamy and so delicious. But if you want the boozy one, go with the District Lebowski. Jaw drop, so good! I still think the donuts themselves need more work - I wish they would taste sugary like the ones in Lafayette called Meches. The toppings are exquisite and those hot honey fried chicken sliders are the best! The staff are very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I kind of wish those boozy coffees were at the other locations, but other than that, keep doing what you are doing!

    District meets the suburbs…read more I've been to the locations on Magazine and Harrison several times but 1st time I have been to this one. This one feels like a chain restaurant (which it now is) and has no real personality being pinned in between a bike shop and a Jersey Mike's inside of strip mall. The kolaches at District are really good. They have a variety of flavors, I usually get a smoked sausage, cheese and jalapeno which is tasty but this time I got a brisket boudin and cream cheese kolache in a collaboration with Gonzo's. This was phenomenal. I also got a regular glazed donut. This was not that good. It's too dense and too thick. I like my glazed donuts to be light and airy; I want it to almost melt in my mouth. All of District's donuts are thick. Most of them are good especially the banana pudding donut. The issue is these aren't really donuts more like cakes or just a dessert. If you are coming to get your order to go this place is fine but if you want to hang out, I prefer the other locations.

    Ode to the Loaf and the Golden Fields On golden paths, where…read moreyellow beams ignite A tapestry of sun, I walk alone, Each footstep scented faintly with delight, For nearby, on Oak Street, warmth is sown: At Breads on Oak, a miracle is grown. Here wheat fields bow, their gilded spines resigned, Transformed by hands into a living dough, Wild yeast and patience, earth and sky combined, A tang of hope, an oven's gentle glow; Each loaf a testament to all we sow. This bread, crackling crust and airy, sour-sweet, Is more than sustenance; it is a prayer For all who gather, breaking bread to greet The morning light, and taste the love baked there; A grace that rises softly through the air. Yet one delight eludes my hungry heart: The one for whom my eager soul is yearning. I call to the Creator, source of every part, Their absence stains the loaf, the fields, the burning Of longing that the rising sun keeps turning. Grant me solace, Creator, as seasons spin. Above, within the ancient oaks outside, Two yellow birds in sunlit rapture sing, Echoing the baker's joy, the pride Of daily blessings, simple, sanctified. While I, earthbound, savor crust and spring, Trusting the Creator will one day lift my wing. Why do they sing so bright, so unafraid? Perhaps their hope is kneaded by the Creator's hand, While I, with all this gold and bread, remain unswayed. Hillel Yisroel (Albert) Canalizo

    Came here on a whim after church and it was great for a quick brekky and coffee…read more Apparently they're plant based so no eggs in the bread which I was surprised at it because it tasted great! They heated up the savory pastry, which I appreciate. The coffee was good too and not burnt or sour. I loved that they had bread samples too, I would def buy a loaf of olive bread. Has WiFi and about 3-4 tables. Pretty small place inside. Has some outdoor seating. Overall, I'd come back for a quick bite or catch up with a friend. Parking: free limited on street

    It's a classic greasy spoon short order grill and doughnut shop. If you don't like that sort of…read morething, you might not like this. The food is fine and dirt cheap. The doughnuts are delicious. I'm a particular fan of cinnamon rolls, and they have two completely different styles. There's the honey bun, the usual fried doughnut shop style, and that's as good as any I've ever had. The second is at the other end of the spectrum, not an in-between thing like Cinnabon, not one of those that's really just a loaf of bread, but a dense, chewy, yeast-raised and baked cinnamon sweet roll doused in white icing. That's my personal favorite type, and this one is top notch. And just a bit huge. My wife has tried a number of the doughnut types and raves over them. For comparison, don't think greasy, wet, sugary fat bombs like Krispy Kreme, and don't think airy and dry like grocery doughnuts. These are dense, sweet but not greasy yeast-raised doughnuts. Like LaMars, if you've ever been lucky enough to live near one. The five stars is for the pastry and the old-fashioned neighborhood cheap breakfast joint feel. Don't expect gourmet bacon and eggs. It's decent breakfast for not much money. Whaddaya want fer nuttin anyway?

    Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing visit to Sweet Things Metairie…read more From the moment I walked in, the service felt off. There were no menus visible, and when I asked what was available, the employee didn't offer any guidance--just asked what I wanted. When I said a dozen donuts, she pointed at the display and said "this is it." No explanation, no friendliness. Only after I specifically asked if they had breakfast sandwiches did she pull out a folded paper menu, which I found odd since it wasn't offered at the start. The biggest issue was the food quality. When I got to my car and opened the croissant breakfast sandwich, the bacon was completely burnt--so burnt it wasn't edible. I threw the entire sandwich away. The donuts were also handled poorly. Two of the iced donuts were placed upside down in the box, with the icing smashed and stuck to the packaging (as shown in the photos). Between the lack of customer service, poor food quality, and careless packaging, this was not a good experience. I won't be returning and wouldn't recommend it to others.
