    1/2 dozen assorted

    I love a good donut and these do NOT disappoint. Tasty at the very first bite!!! The service was quick and on point, and while there is not much ambiance to be had at a donut shop, I do not care when it's a perfect sweet treat! A must revisit!!! It was also a busy little place so I will get my order in sooner rather than later!!!

    I consider myself to be a bit of a donut connoisseur, and these donuts didn't disappoint! Arrived at 11am on a Saturday and there were plenty of donuts in the case. We were the only customers there. I ordered my go-to: glazed vanilla cream filled. You get to watch as they fill the donuts right in front of you. The donut was nice and light and fluffy. Not greasy. The filling was perfect, but I wouldn't have complained if there was a tiny bit more. We will be back!!

    I love the donuts here! Chocolate and glazed are my go-to flavors. The shop is clean and they have a fresh variety. I went on a Saturday at about 11. Everyone was friendly and I am happy I finally tried them out.

    It was so good, I ate it before the photo.  Blueberry Cake

    Ok. I came on a Monday about an hour before closing time... and they were closed. Sign said no more donuts, so that could be a good sign if your a glass half full type a chick like me. Came again on Tuesday- because I ain't playing about these donuts. Came around 3 pm and about half of the shelves were empty. Anywhere else is sold out of apple fritters by 1030 am - but they had 2 trays left. So I only want them if they are sold out- and I got a blueberry cake donut. I wanted to get more stuff and tell u all about it but my cholesterol is high and I'm trying to get my life right. So this blueberry thooooow! Is so light and fluffy and really good. They don't feel heavy, oily and deep fried. So I can come back and get two next time. No coffee though- just donuts. All the frills are in the donuts and not in anything else. Plenty of seating but u gonna have to leave so u can get some water or coffee to wash these bad boys down! Not bad customer service- no frills. Just good donuts handed to u... no smile or extra talk. Just take the good donut and go.

    It was not busy, late in the day, around 4 p.m., so the selection was a little smaller than I assume is the case earlier. That being said, we got half a dozen donuts, two cream-filled donuts, which they do at the time of purchase, which is pretty cool, and an apple fritter. The apple fritter was for a snack for me, but me and my wife tasted it on the way home, and only a small bite was left for me when I got to my driveway. I live 10 minutes from their shop which is in an old shopping center off 54. Nothing special about the location, really, but the filled, glazed, and fritters were very good. This means I don't have to go back to Dunkin anymore :) I will have to go earlier and try more stuff next time.

    Went later in the day and the selection was slim. Good donuts, but nothing standout one way or the other. I got a cinnamon twist, cinnamon roll, powdered, and crunch. Didn't like the crunch donut, the twist and roll were fine and the powdered took the prize.

    Absolutely incredible donuts. Fresh, soft, and perfectly sweet without being overpowering. Every bite tastes homemade. Highly recommend!!

    imma be real. i'm a donut connoisseur and these were just okay. we came in around noon on a saturday and they were almost sold out (which was kind of weird considering they close at 6?). the guy helping us was so nice. we ended up getting an old fashioned, blueberry cake and chocolate cake. the old fashioned was crunchy and not that great. chocolate cake didn't taste like anything at all. blueberry was probably the best but it still wasn't anything over a 6/10. maybe it's because we got there too late ? not sure... probably won't be back

    We had already started eating the donuts before I took a picture but wicked yummy! Fluffy and soft and the flavors were great! We were greeted by a smiley face and left very happy. We will definitely be back :)

    I fell in love with Thousand Hills the moment I walked in. The decor is so beautiful and there are…read moreso many comfy places to sit as well as tables inside and outside. It's located alongside the leasing office for the apartment complex. The service is great. There were two young ladies working and they were both friendly. I arrived around 4:30 on a beautiful Saturday afternoon and ordered a muffin and a decaf latte since it was so late (for me to drink caffeine). The cranberry lemon muffin was absolutely perfect, so much flavor, so fresh & moist. The Salted Brown Butter Latte was the best. From the first sip to the last drop, I loved it. I sat on a small section of a very comfortable couch with pillows and all. I later sat out front on one of the benches. They also have a patio seating out back. I can't wait to go back to Thousand Hills!!

We share a car, and with her…read morejob having her out of town about half the time, I've gotten pretty good at finding little adventures on the drive home. This particular morning, I knew I wanted to stop by Trader Joe's afterward, but they weren't open yet. So I pulled up the map looking for a coffee shop where I could get a little coworking done. Thousand Hills Coffee popped up, and it had been on my "need to try" list for a while. I also shot my buddy KH a quick text to see if he wanted to join me and catch up on our latest ultra running training shenanigans. Thankfully, he was game. I rolled in around 8:30 a.m. and managed to grab a decent parking spot. Worth mentioning because the coffee shop shares parking with the apartment complex next door, so I imagine spaces can disappear quickly. KW arrived a few minutes before me and had to park a bit farther away. Walking inside, I immediately liked the vibe. It feels modern but still cozy, almost like someone's really well-designed living room. There are several distinct seating areas, plenty of soft chairs, a long community table, and even bar seating overlooking the baristas. It struck a nice balance between coffee shop and comfortable workspace. Since I'd already knocked out my morning run, I was ready for a little breakfast. KH and I both ordered the cheese, Danish. It looked huge in the display case, though it shrank a bit once it made it onto the plate. That said, it was really flavorful and definitely worth ordering. I also grabbed a regular drip coffee, which was excellent. My timing was amusing because they had just finished the last pot and were brewing a fresh one, but honestly, getting a fresh cup probably worked out for the best. We grabbed chairs next to the long community table instead at the table since the morning sun was already heating things up. We spent a while catching up, talking running, races, and all the usual endurance athlete nonsense. After KH headed out, I relocated to the long table that was in the shade and spent another hour or so catching up on emails and getting a little work done. It turned out to be a great co-working spot with plenty of room to spread out without feeling like you were taking up space. One last shoutout to the staff, who were genuinely friendly and welcoming throughout my visit. Good coffee is one thing, but great people always make the experience better. Overall, I came away impressed. Somehow, they've been open for about two years, and I'm honestly not sure how they managed to stay off my radar for so long. Safe to say they'll be making it into my regular rotation whenever I need a good cup of coffee and a comfortable place to get some work done.

Trying to get a little work done, I was pleased to find a comfy couch, power and Wi-Fi- in addition to the incredible twist on a Mexican mocha and an absolutely insane bacon, egg, and cheese on there in house made biscuit! Greeted by the friendliest barista, I made myself comfy on the couch and watched her work her magic. My " not too sweet" mocha had beautiful latte art. I was actually a little sad as I reached the bottom of the mug. So I opted for a decaf refill, it was pure perfection. Do yourself a favor & pop in to make this place your morning ritual.

The menu isn't broad, only a few options, which I was disappointed with. The staff was pretty decent, they forgot a few things, like a lemon for water when requested, a spoon for my yogurt. We ordered a burrito, the biscuit and eggs and the yogurt. Honestly, I was shocked at how good it was. Burrito had great flavor and was super filling. The biscuits were incredible! They were super crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The jam it came with was also delicious. Overall, it was a weird restaurant set up and staff was iffy but the food was quite good! I likely won't go back because the menu is so limited but if you're in the area, it wouldn't hurt to stop by!

It's super spacious, with tons of natural light, high ceilings, and both indoor and outdoor seating. The outside patio has cushy lounge seats, perfect for soaking up sunshine (though it's right by the highway, so some outdoor spots come with a bit of traffic noise during rush hours). This place is a dream for remote work. Every table is so spread out (esp outdoor) that you don't overhear other conversations, no loud music, and sunlight streaming in from every corner. Service was quick and thoughtfully accommodating. I appreciated that they bring food in a to-go container if you're sitting outside, so you're not stuck carrying plates back. And bonus points for their commitment to using sustainable packaging. The coffee was quite delicious! Jubala Coffee actually makes a type of specialty beans roasted just for F&F. Their drink menu is on the simpler side, but they usually have a couple of seasonal lattes, and everything I tried tasted great. Food-wise, it's a gem: generous portions, very reasonably priced, and flavorful. It reminded me a bit of Fount Kitchen in its "organic, healthy" vibe, but with more non-vegetarian options and even better flavor. There's plenty of parking right out front, but sadly they close at 2:30pm, so it's more of a morning or lunch spot. All in all, a wonderful place for a morning work sesh or a work lunch in style!
