Disappointed, but nonetheless I love donuts so I purchased a dozen of the remaining varieties. All the donuts I have eaten have been very good. We will go back later on the way home in hopes of snagging an apple fritter. The glazed croissants looked Amazing, will also get one of those. Shop was quiet as it was afternoon. Hubby wanted some ice cream so we each got 2 scoops. Cost was roughly $14 but that is to be expected as we were in a touristy area. Dozen donuts roughly about $25.

They also are the only spot in the area that has an amazing cherry ice cream along with lots of other great flavors of ice cream. This is a really cool spot and certainly worthy of a visit. They do sell out of donuts pretty fast so get here early if you need that but they have other good options to try out here as well like their awesome ice cream. The service has always been friendly, fast and efficient for me here. Overall this is definitely a cool spot to check out near the beach.

The ice cream and different product offerings are usually fantastic. Their presentation is always on spot. Service is a bit hit and miss, our order taker last week seemed genuinely uninterested and not welcoming at all. Everyone has an off day, and it is the end of the summer season, so I'm sure there's some fatigue there. This is a safe, clean and comfortable environment that I don't think twice about letting our teenager go in by himself and dine in if we are walking around the shopping center. The ice cream served up in the glass Mason jars is an absolute must do, cannot recommend enough. It's absolutely overpriced for ice cream, however, you do get what you pay for I think. Overall good experience.

It's a cute little spot with ice cream and confections, and really has a good selection of flavors. The problem is the prices! Omg, how do you charge over $5 for one scoop of ice cream in bowl, and extra for a cone. No one should pay $7 for a one scoop cone, and although the ice cream was good it was not made by the establishment. The candy was no better one peanut butter cup was $6.50, and it was a thicker one, but still very pretty pricey in my opinion. Also it's not the standard in the area because we visited another place right down the road and it was half the price for the same stuff. The people behind the counter were nice and moved things along, but I'm just not sure how they are justifying the prices. Sorry I'll go back to the other spot.
