    Had an iced American and strawberry lemonade. Both were pretty good but the coffee was a little weak. Also got a vanilla frosted donut with sprinkles that was decent and an m&m cookie! In all honesty this place is a little over hyped and we've had better coffee other places

    7/30/26 I got 3 donuts and a coffee with my mom, we were not warmly welcomed and received mediocre service. The donuts were good but we were definitely disappointed when given a regular togo box because they only do their logo boxes for larger orders. Overall if i received a better or any greeting from the rude servers I would've given a better review. First Impressions are everything!

    Black Raven amazing
    Ivanka B.

    As I remembered pre-Covid days - the space has expanded (or moved) not quite sure but service was quick and friendly. Donuts exceptional. Love that they elevated the options and I'm a "cream filled" girl so the Black Raven or whatever it's called and the Boston Creme with dark chocolate ganache were perfect for enjoying half at a time (and then devouring like a fat a**)

    We stopped in Mystic, CT to grab these delicious donuts! The pistachio donut was out of this world Paired it with a honey vanilla cold brew to make it a perfect day. We brought these to Misquamicut Beach to make it a sweet morning. Very welcoming environment.

    Strawberry crush, fruity pebbles, French toast, and milk and cookies

    Great service, clean and donuts were amazing! They sell out of donuts pretty quick so I recommend getting there early!

    Key lime pie (green) Blackberry pear (the sugared one) Earl gray (with the crumbles)

    Line out the door, donuts, coffee, sign me up. The line moves fast, and the servers are nice when you're trying tod decide which to go with - so don't let a crowd deter you. First time here and we went with the key lime donut, earl gray and blackberry pear. Earl gray was the weak link. It didn't have any early gray flavor, however the cream filling was quite nice, subtly sweet and overall the donut itself was great texture wise. Just flat out missed on flavor. The blackberry pear was good- a little more pear emphasis than blackberry, and if you're thinking "pear doesn't have a ton of flavor as is....?", you're catching on. This donut was also missing on flavor a hit- not as much as the earl gray though. It was good. Wasn't a fan of the sugar coating though, too gritty for me. Key lime pie donut is where it's at. I assume this won't stay for the fall so hop on it while you can. If I could have gotten 3 of these instead of the other 2, I would have. It packed zestiness, creamy custard filling, pie crumbles, the whole gambit. The patio was covered in crumbs- and now I know why. People were probably eating this winner of a donut. Be selective. But I don't know, they're donuts, have fun.

    I've been wanting to try this place for a few years now, and after having been to a yelp event about 10-minutes away, we planned to make this our next stop. It's a cute location across the street from the Mystic Aquarium. We ended up ordering a half dozen donuts and a couple of cookies. There was only 1 employee there that I could see. I went back in line to grab a coffee and a chocolate chip cookie. Didn't bother to check the bag it was in, until we got home. 90-minutes later. It wasn't a chocolate chip cookie. I don't know what it was. I'm assuming their cannoli cookie? Either way, it wasn't for me. I can't speak for my traveling companions for the day, but I did cut a bite of both the maple donut and the vanilla glaze, and wasn't impressed. The maple needed more ... maple flavor. The vanilla was dry. There's way better places in CT for amazing donuts, but for myself, Deviant was just meh.

    Carrot Cake Fritter
    Kristen S.

    Very very good. Ordered 2 Caramel Iced Lattes and a carrot cake fritter. Very quick and friendly staff. My only regret was not trying more! They change their menu monthly with 12 new donuts. Cant wait to try next months.

    I can never make it here in the morning, so I had a friend pick some up for us this time! And for that reason, I wish there was another one in the state!! This time we got the a coconut and caramel drizzled donut with a Boston cream and a white chocolate turtle on top

    Samoan donut
    Yara F.

    Delicious donuts! Quick service considering the fast forming line, and lots of outdoor seating to enjoy your sweet treats. All of our donuts were delicious, my favorite was the "Samoan" but it he vanilla glaze and double chocolate were the equally delicious. A perfect sweet treat or breakfast before exploring mystic village!

    Pizza donut
    Colette G.

    The line was out the door and the donut choices were limited by the time we got there around 3pm on Saturday of holiday weekend. Line went fast. Service was friendly and helpful. Got a seasonal special cookie iced latte and it was delicious! The pizza donut was so generous, we shared it. Fluffy tasty dough, with a caramel creme. It made me happy just to experience it. Loved it here. Absolutely will come back next time we are here. It's a walk in/walk out place with some tables on a porch. We were fortunate to get a table. Great donuts and coffee choices. Fair pricing. Loved it!

    Orange creamsicle and vanilla sprinkle
    Veronica K.

    I really liked this place! The cream they use in their donuts is phenomenal - super light and fluffy. The best thing I had here was their pistachio donut. The pistachio cream and icing was absolutely delicious! I also had their orange creamsicle cake donut which was filling, and their drip coffee was pretty good. My husband said his cortado was so-so and his lemon cookie was kind of dry, but at least I got some good items. It's a bit pricy for what it is, but look where it's located. Overall though, I think this is a good spot.

    de·vi·ant - departing from usual or accepted standards. And that's EXACTLY what these donuts do. Food We had the Petite Four, and it was really decadent. Rich but not overwhelming, with just the right amount of sweetness. It was kind of like a jelly donut. We also got the carrot cake donut. The cream cheese frosting was amazing, but the donut was not like a carrot cake at all. Not bad, just not a carrot cake. More a spice cake, in my opinion. I also grabbed two classic glazed donuts for the kids, and they loved them. The texture was soft, the glaze had that perfect light crackle, and everything tasted super fresh. We both tried different featured beverages and they were both good but the flavors were not strong enough. Ambiance The ambiance is adorable, natural chic, and fits the Mystic vibe perfectly. It's a small space, though, so don't expect to hang out inside. Service It was pretty packed when we went, but the staff was incredibly patient and friendly. Even with a line, they never made us feel rushed. And literally, as soon as we left, the line was out the door! It's located inside Olde Mistick Village, which makes it a great stop during a stroll. The menu rotates with creative, themed donuts, so there's always something new to try. Deviant Donuts absolutely lives up to its name. If you're in Mystic, don't skip it.

    Are people keeping up with preventive measures when waiting and entering the building?

    They sure are. We have very long lines at times in the mornings and people have been great with social distancing. We have a dedicated pickup window for preorder pickup and we only allow 5 customers in the store at one time and mark the floor…

So that means everyone loves Nana's. Which means that, on a very rainy weekend early afternoon, we ended up waiting quite a long time to order and then to get our food but ... I suppose it was worth it (this is high praise coming from someone who almost never believes waiting in a long line is actually worth it). My friend and I split the spicy Caesar kale salad as a starter. I cracked up when I saw "massaged kale" as one of the ingredients. But all jokes aside, this was one of the best kale salads with abundant dressing and, in lieu of croutons, breadcrumbs and cashew parmesan. It tasted pretty indulgent and rich but you can certainly fool yourself into thinking it's actually healthy. I got the tomato sandwich plus bacon (so a BLT without the L) and it was pretty good, though I do wish they cut the bread a little thinner so I could pick it up and eat it as a sandwich. As it were, I just used my knife and fork - certainly more civilized. The pizza was also not bad, though I wish there were some more of the toppings - heard it's leagues better than Mystic Pizza. There are a few tables inside but be prepared to wait. When it was peak rush hour, there were two lines inside, one for the bathroom and one to place an order. Even though they were so slammed, the staff couldn't be friendlier. Our waitress in particular came by often to see how we were doing. Parking lot also filled up. We parked in the Mystic train station and then walked over.

    I am absolutely obsessed with everything here. I made reservations for 5:45 pm on a Monday night…read more We actually came a little before 5:15 pm, because I was absolutely starving, and they were so kind/accommodating. They seated us right away! I love the vibes of the place, it's beautiful and inviting, but not pretentious. Our waitress was the best. She knew it was our anniversary and gave us a little bubbly to toast to. We also made it for happy hour (5 pm - 6 pm on weekdays, and 5 pm - 6 pm on weekends only at the bar)! All the small plates on the left side of the menu were half off! We immediately ordered drinks (the $10 happy hour cocktail - a blackberry bourbon smash for my husband, and a mocktail for me). We then ordered the shishito peppers, 2 of the pickled beet deviled eggs, and the roasted oysters with chili oil. They came out super fast, and it was delicious. The shishitos had that great char flavor along with a great dipping sauce. You can never go wrong with deviled eggs. Then we decided to order the fried oysters and the bread with corn butter. The fried oysters were the star of the small plates. Cooked so well. Freshly fried, you bite into it and it was juicy and delicious on the inside. Just so good. The bread and butter? Ugh, my dream butter and bread. Just so delicious. The butter was slightly sweet from the corn and had flakes of sea salt on tip, making it the perfect sweet and salty combo. We also got the salad (local produce!), and our waitress knew we were sharing ao she had the kitchen put it on 2 plates. Such a great touch. The salad was fantastic. After eating lobster rolls for a day, this was a much needed salad. It was refreshing, bright, and light! For our main entrees, we got the seared local squid and the strip steak. It was INCREDIBLE. Everything had so much flavor. The squid was cooked well, wasnt chewy. Just delicious. The crispy rice was the BEST THING I HAVE EVER EATEN. I wish we could order bowls of it. My husband finished it, couldn't get enough of it. The steak was fantastic as well. The potato with the bearnise sauce was so dreamy. The little onions on the steak, all the little touches were so well done. We knew we had to get dessert. We got a scoop of the black raspberry ice cream, a scoop of corn and blueberry swirl ice cream, and the lavender honey panna cotta. Guys. You 100% must get dessert. The corn blueberry ice cream was unreal. I dont know how you get all that flavor into ice cream. They dont skimp on the honey on the panna cotta. And it went so well with the more mild panna cotta. The black raspberry was a little icy because they froze whole blackberries in it, but at least you know they were trying to make sure you got blackberries in there. With happy hour, the bill wasn't too bad. This was hands down our favorite meal of our week long road trip. I can't wait to come back. I would 100% make a detour to eat here. Parking is pretty difficult around here. I would probably just Uber if I was coming here on a weekend. I need to come here for breakfast at some point.

My husband and I got married last December. We decided we would hold off on celebrating with our family and invite everyone out from California to join us for a weekend full of activities in Connecticut and a special dinner at Shipwright's Daughter during Memorial Day weekend. We contacted the restaurant's events team to work out high level details starting in late January - to book a private room and hold a date and time. From the get go, the communication we received from the event staff was dismal to say the least. Not only did the events manager misquote the estimate for the room reservation, she came back and asked for a much higher price (up charging by an additional 30% of the original minimum fee) two months after we confirmed and discussed the date. She then explained it was due to the holiday weekend. Our date had never changed from the moment we inquired, so we would have appreciated knowing this upfront. Over the course of several months (and an absurd number of emails and a few calls), we tried to solidify the menu and wine selection and made multiple attempts before hearing back from the team. It was about two weeks before the big event when we were able to confirm a menu. It was about four days before the event that we heard back from the beverage director, but by then, my husband and I had already decided we would bring our own wine bottles, not wanting to leave it to chance with this team. I won't go into further details about the frustration we felt regarding their system for communications (they use an internal system that doesn't make it easy for guests to know who is copied on emails and who sees what). That is something I hope they will work out. When the big day came, I walked into the room and noticed there were a number of chairs missing, so I counted the chairs. They had an incorrect number of chairs for adults and not enough high chairs for the toddlers. We had requested a specific number of these chairs (weeks prior and mentioned it multiple times in writing), and I thought it was safe to assume that this was a basic checklist item for events set up. I was dumbfounded in the moment. I couldn't help but wonder what else they were going to miss or mess up that evening. It was disappointing to have our family members wait while the staff scrambled to pull other chairs into the room. From the time it took to take everyone's order from the set menu, the time between courses being served, and the attentiveness for pouring water and wine - all of it was a miss. The level of hospitality that we expected from a restaurant so recognized for its incredible food and approach to sustainable sourcing was completely overshadowed by the lack of attention and care by its staff - since day one of planning this event. Even a few of our family members commented on this during the dinner. At the end of the day, we felt like an obligation rather than welcomed guests, and that is mainly why I'm leaving this review. We had been patrons of Shipwright's a couple of times prior to this event, which is why we chose this establishment - to represent the best that Connecticut has to offer, when it comes to a dining experience we could vouch for. We no longer feel that we can recommend this restaurant. If you care about hospitality, I would recommend looking elsewhere.

Unfortunately, our experience was significantly affected by the hostess, Mariah. When we arrived, we were seated directly next to another party in a restaurant that had many open tables. We politely asked if we could move to the adjacent table for a little more privacy. Mariah told us that table would be needed for a larger reservation, which we completely understood. However, just a few minutes later, another couple was seated at that very table. I have worked as a hostess myself and understand the importance of strategic seating and managing reservations. What was disappointing was being given an explanation that clearly wasn't accurate. When you are paying premium prices for a dining experience, you should also feel welcomed and comfortable. All the tables next to us remained empty yet we were privy to all the conversations so close to us (the small tables are very close together) Because of this interaction, we decided not to stay for dinner and instead had a few appetizers before leaving. It was unfortunate because the food was good and our server provided excellent service. With a more welcoming and honest greeting from the hostess, our experience could have been very different. We will be going to one of many other options next time!

    "Belly up to the bar" never looked so good

    Pink Basil - Nonya Curry with beef. Soooo yummmy, quite sweet though, but the kick/ spice helped balance it out (which is customizable btw)

    This was a large spot with outdoor seating along with a sushi bar. I did not get a good look at…read morethe inside as I sat outside on a nice day. The menu had a little bit of everything ranging from Thai to sushi to Vietnamese, a very fusion type feel to it. The service was friendly and the food came out in a timely manner. Three items were ordered and tried. They consisted of the sushi nachos ($14.95), bao buns with chicken katsu ($12.95) and the Mystic River roll ($19.95). The nachos had diced tuna, sliced avocado, Pico de Gallo, topped with spicy avocado sauce and tobiko and served over fried wonton skins. There was a nice portion here. I thought they were going to be small wontons, but this was a pleasant surprise. There was a great ratio of flavors, and I really enjoyed the small dicing of everything. The bao buns were topped with sliced cucumbers, spring onions, carrots, and some type of sweet hoisin sauce it appeared. The chicken was very crispy and tasty. The bun was okay. It was a little tough. I did enjoy the sweet factor from the sauce to pair with the hot and crunchy chicken. The Mystic River roll had tuna, salmon, mango, as well as avocado topped with spicy mayo and was wrapped in a rice wrapper. This was alright. There was a lot of mayo present, which took away from the fish flavor, but it still was not bad. The rice wrapper was an interesting choice, but overall, okay. Will I go back? Probably.

    Food is ok, fried rice is great, but pad Thai is not good…read more Biggest issue is their use of ai answering and takeout services. They are frustrating to use. Even if you support ai usage, their system doesn't work.

    If you tell me all the Starbuckses are the same, that's like saying all McDonald's locations are…read morethe same. And if your reply is you'd never go to a chain, there's probably not much more to discuss. I've quipped that I can't make an autobiographical movie because Todd Solondz would sue me for plagiarism but part of my founding narrative was an overly simplistic take on cities vs. rural areas. If Twitter existed when I was 14 my account would have been the most vitriolic assortment of anti-NYC videos. (California tumbles into the sea, that'll be the day I go back to Fresh Meadows). After years of Mellencamp-fueled thoughts of farms and trees, I actually got to spend some time in the country and eventually realized I'm more of a faux-rural type. For example: I like the hiking trails and dark skies in New Paltz but I'm glad you can get there by bus or buy a coffee at 2AM. In recent years I've been on a Mystic kick. I like the crickets, stars and unexpected animals (well, not that fox that seemed weirdly unafraid of human contact). But I'm also glad that iced Americanos are a short walk away. The beverages have been perfect and the service has been friendly every time. I certainly appreciate the existence of the outdoor seating even if I didn't choose it on this late-September excursion. Just like my local JC branch, the Yelp rating here is out-of-whack. As baristas are drawn into dumb political sagas and forced to comply with more corporate rules, I appreciate their hard work.

    Rude and incompetent! Even after I carefully explained that I wanted to order a small Decaf with a…read moreshot of espresso, she ended up handing me only a shot of expresso black!!
