    From the outside you wouldn't expect this place to be the gem that it is. The donuts were A+. I got the donut croissant OmG it was a biggo cake like donut. I shared it with three people. The sandwiches were great. I was so happy they had a tuna and Turkey option. The lady working was very efficient. The drive thru is very convenient as well.

    OMG I've driven by Donuts plus innumerable times and have taken note of the endless drivethru line... Well today is the day. I'm coming off a week of overnights in the ER, and by God I deserve someself soothing... I walk in and ask the smiling lady counter what she recommends. In response, she laughs and hands me a glazed donut (whaaaa??). I pop it in my mouth and... FIREWORKS! This is by far, the most glorious donut I've ever eaten. Lightly crunchy outside, soft and delectably chewy inside, and best of all straight out of the fryer. I didn't know donuts could taste like this! I proceed to buy a little of everything....and am currently working my way thru the most incredible apple fritter. No doubt, I'll be a regular here on out!

    Don't let the name fool, there's still plenty of great fried donuts here at a Baking Donuts plus but all of them were wonderful grease-free and far more donut and flavor forward. The sour cream (and strawberry varieties) is one of my favorite donuts around and this was one of the best I've had in a good while. The bear claw had a good amount of cinnamon apple filling, the fritter was a delight of textures. Crispy and soft, tender and flaky and moist and delicious. Good bit of glaze without being weighed down. Boston cream was stuffed just right. The cinnamon bun tasted more like a honey bun (it was in there...I think) but either way it was a perfectly proofed and light dough, good glaze, and still hit the spot. Just not the cinnamon spot. Great place, great dough, great flavors. Oh. Go early. I went around 130p and over half the options had already sold out. Do not snooze on these donuts. Worth waking up for. Best donut I've come across since moving to town.

    Dozen including strawberry cake, red velvet cake. Sour cream, lemon filled, Boston cream, and chocolate frosted

    So, it's 2020 and you are stuck at home 24/7 with your family. On day 8176821 you decide to venture out because can't possibly keep cooking all of your meals at home and can you believe these people expect to eat 3 meals plus snacks every day?! Enter Baking Donuts Plus to help save my day. I read about this place on a FB page created to help rally around locally owned restaurants in Polk County. My longtime favorite donut shop, DK donuts in Haines City closed fairly recently, so I decided to give this place a shot. Traffic was a breeze thanks to COVID -19 and it took no time to find this little gem on Hwy 17 in Winter Haven. They are doing both take out and drive thru orders. The first time I went I got 1/2 a dozen because I wanted to try them out. Chocolate frosted for dad, red velvet for mom, strawberry cake for me, Boston Creme for the hubs, and sour cream cake for the kiddo. Let me tell you, these things were a hit. So much so I went back again the next week, where we added some lemon filled to the rotation. So now I'm stuck making a once weekly trip during quarantine. My favorite is definitely the strawberry cake. Dad thinks they are as good as his beloved and now sheltered DK, and hubs says they are as good as Donut King in Minneola. That's some high praise y'all. On top of all that their prices are super reasonable and you can help support a local business. Give them a try. You'll be glad you did.

    Amazing ! Must try ! Pillow like doughnuts... the strawberry fritter was crispiy on the outside and so fluffy on the inside with fresh cut strawberries!! They also have a great boba selection and their ice coffee was great !!

    These are, by far, the best donuts my family and I have had.....EVER!!! They are so fresh. I have never had a donut that is so soft and light and not oily!! And the selection is awesome. Besides what I posted, we had red velvet, Boston cream, and an Oreo!! I can not stress enough how delicious each donut was!! I would recommend Baking Donuts Plus to anyone and everyone who is looking for the best donuts ever!! Will certainly be returning the next time we pass through Lake Alfred!!

    The strawberry mock tail which was caffeine and alcohol free, tasted like the perfect summer refresher! So light and delicious

While waiting as the next customer in line, one of your team members walked past my vehicle and stated, "I'll get to you later," before proceeding to another car behind me. A co-worker shortly afterward asked her whether she had taken my order, to which she indicated she had not. She then returned to assist me. I felt this interaction was discourteous and disappointing, particularly as it lacked even a basic greeting or acknowledgment upon approaching the vehicle. When I later mentioned the experience to the employees who prepared and delivered my order, they appeared surprised and unsure how to respond. I hope this was an isolated incident and that steps can be taken to ensure all customers receive prompt, respectful, and consistent service moving forward. I would appreciate any follow-up regarding how this matter will be addressed to prevent similar occurrences for other guests.

    Across from South Central Park and next to the Winter Haven Library resides Richard's Fine Coffees…read more For over 25 years Richard's Fine Coffee's has been supplying downtown Winter Haven with caffeinated beverages and food. David Tuttle opened Richard's Fine Coffee's on June 11, 1996. Upon realizing that there were no independent coffee house in Winter Haven, he wanted to bring residents and visitors a new coffee drinking experience. Richard's originally operated out of the Arcade Building before moving to the new Winter Haven Public Library when it opened its new building in 2005. In the ensuing years Richard's Fine Coffee's has become a cornerstone to the revitalization of downtown. One of the keys to Richard's longevity has been providing a place where people can meet, relax, and enjoy delicious coffee and bites. On the first Friday of every month they have a live music event. They serve a daily breakfast and lunch menu that includes hot and cold coffee drinks, breakfast sandwiches, bagels, hot and cold sandwiches, salads, soup, and pastries. I popped in for caffeinated refreshment during a recent trip to Winter Haven. I like how you can enjoy your drinks and food in their large dining room, on the patio, or across the street in beautiful South Central Park. Richard's has become more than a place where you can eat and drink. It is an important part of bringing the community together in downtown Winter Haven.

The crumb cake was also delicious. Staff was friendly and the interior design relaxing. We'll be back .

    Stopped here on the way to Legoland. I ordered a breakfast sandwich and it was great for what it…read morewas (a microwaved croissant sandwich). We also got a strawberry cake donut, plain cake donut and blueberry cake donut. All three of them were fantastic. Probably the best donuts we've had in about 5 years, moist and flavorful! My son had a yeast donut (chocolate frosted with sprinkles) and my daughter had the donut holes again all of them were spectacular. The true of the star was the man behind the counter. He was so kind and caring. My son ate one of my daughter's donut holes and she was crying, he came from behind the counter and gave her a new one. 10/10 service. I wish I lived closer.

So far Donut Palace has earned the local area 5 star rating for donuts. Albeit they don't have a plethora of donuts to choose from, there was enough variety to satisfy any lover of donuts. The posted hours are until noon (12pm for those who are unfamiliar with the word - lol jk I think) and I arrived a little after 11am. The donuts I purchased were all still very fresh (2 thumbs up). We really liked the donuts, which included lemon and raspberry filled powdered, apple fritter, cinnamon roll, and a couple of glazed. The powdered, which were for me, were NOT overly sweet and the dough was fresh and soft, almost melting in my mouth. The wife enjoyed her apple fritter, which was on the small size, and cinnamon roll. The glazed were not overpowering sweet, like a Krispy Kreme (no thanks). There really are not many donuts shops in the area, besides numerous Dunkins which I was never fond of, so if I find one that bests this place I will review it and downgrade this one a star, but for the moment it's 5 stars and we will return. BTW, the lady running the place was very nice.

Saw this place one night next to the Hibachi we always go to in Winter Haven, check out my review for Hibachi Express winter haven, Fl. Was super excited to bring my wife here the next day as it was her Birthday and she LOVES COFFEE!!! To keep it short It's a nice place, things are pricey, especially the Cheesecakes and it was just ok in comparison to other Winter Haven Coffee Hot spots - Haven anyone??? We were going to do coffee and cheesecakes for a Birthday Breakfast, but WOW, the cheesecakes were like 8 something a slice and they are small for the price. I don't care how good they are they are not a good Food to Value in my pockets opinion. We were there so we got drinks. 1 medium caramel macchiato for the Wife and it was very caramel sweet, not a good ratio in her opinion. We ordered a cappuccino, quad shot espresso, that I was charged for 2 espressos for instead of 1$ per extra shot like most other places. 2 Teas and it was over 30$. All the drinks could have been better. None of us really enjoyed them. Got the Fam some cake pops for 2.25 each everyone said they liked them. The service was good, only 1 kid working by themselves and it did take time for the drinks to be made. Luckily no one else was there so he was able to focus solely on our order. They were also out of a few different drinks the girls wanted first, so they had to choose a tea that was not really the best. My little one had the frozen hot cocoa and they enjoyed it. All in all we would most likely only stop back for coffee if we were in the area. It is a Sunday and we want coffee out, but not good enough to drive past our go to's for coffee on the other 6 days. Cheesecakes looked good, but for the price of 3 slices. I can buy a whole cheesecake and add my own toppings. AS ALWAYS, TRY IT FOR YOURSELF!!!
