The staff here is so sweet! Walking in you're greeted with a case of sugary donuts to choose from…read more The staff is happy to walk you through any flavors or recommendations they have. They often have interesting seasonal flavors to try too. I wouldn't say the donuts are my favorite ever, sometimes the flavors aren't very punchy. But they definitely satisfy a donut itch. It's a tiny lil spot with not too many places to sit inside so make sure to pop by early or late in the day if you plan to linger.

I've been a few times now and every time I can never choose just one donut. They always have an…read morearray of flavors & formats that are tempting but I've found that they're hit or miss. Not to say any of the flavors or combos have been bad, but some have sounded amazing (like peanut butter oreo) and then not really delivered. It took a couple bites to find the peanut butter flavor, faint but there. On the other hand, their key lime pie donut is amazing - the icing is the perfect sweet limey overload balanced by the crumble. They're also vegan and while not a super bargain, I'm not distraught over getting two donuts and not being head over heels for both.

Finally made it to Okie Dokie yesterday after hearing they had gluten-free donuts…read more What I thought was: "Oh cool, a place with gluten-free donuts." What I learned was: "Oh...it's an entire gluten-free facility with sandwiches, baked goods, and bread made fresh on-site." Now back to these donuts: * Coconut Cake (top left) * Apple Fritter (top right) * Lemon Glaze (bottom) I went gluten-free in 2010, before I discovered Krispy Kreme, so I have never experienced the joy of a hot donut. Until yesterday. The Lemon Glaze is cooked to order and served warm, and I am prepared to make the bold statement that it may be the best donut I've ever had in my life. Yup, I said what I said. The Apple Fritter gave me serious coffee roll vibes, which is something I've missed terribly, so that was an unexpected win. And all three passed the ultimate gluten-free test: they didn't taste or feel gluten-free. Honestly, I'd recommend this place even if you're not gluten-free. The fact that I left talking about the donuts instead of the gluten-free part tells you everything you need to know.

Yummy, Dietary Friendly (V & GF) Cherry Vanilla Donut which was awesome!!!…read moreI am not really a sweets person, BUT if I want treat it has to be great! Nice texture, and balance of sweetness and a hint of tart with the cherries. Nice assortment of menu items with descriptions and pics. Walk up window with kind and timely service.

Stopped in with some friends on the way to an impromptu church group gathering at their house. Our…read morehost ordered a dozen donuts of different flavors, and it was pretty cool to know that they donuts are completely vegan, which is great for those with food allergies. I tried some of the donuts later that morning for the first time, and they were really tasty, didn't taste at all different from any kind of regular donuts - bravo! I had stopped in one day to check on allergens, and while they are completely vegan, they do use nuts in some of their donuts, so that's something to be aware of around food allergies. That said, really tasty donuts, especially considering the fact that they're totally vegan!

Best breakfast place ever!…read more Me and my buddy were getting breakfast and the customer service was top tier. The people were so nice and the food was delivered to our table quickly. Not only was the food terrific they brought out purple straws to match our outfits.

This location was reopened as Ringo Coffee & Donuts. I ordered the maple bacon donut with cream…read morecheese. I thought the cream cheese was going to be spread on a warm sliced donut but instead a big chunk of cream cheese was placed in the middle of the donut. My friend ordered the egg cheese and turkey bacon between two donuts and he said it was okay. Ringo coffee & donuts is a creative concept and I hope they work out the kinks to stay around awhile in the neighborhood.

Solid coffee program and a smaller, not overwhelming menu. I haven't tried the sandwich but looking forward to at some point. Hoping they concoct some new sandwiches for the menu! Love having a place in walking distance for coffee and a sweet treat. Savory options rock as well(:

I came here yesterday and didn't receive that good of service from the manager, the prices on yelp…read moreand the yelp menu were not reflective in the actual store. I spoke to the VERY lovely manager Dave, who informed me that the best way to know the correct pricing is to look on their direct menu, uber(but this menu is inflated), or to call the store. Everything is so expenisve now a days that customer service really can make a difference whether I spend an extra dollar or two, especially with many options these days. Dave truly made it up to me (which I wasn't even looking or asking for) with a bagel sandwhich after our conversation. I also tried to pay for a latte and the cahier would not let me she was so sweet. im just looking for customer service in this isolated cold world, because I always come into a store and greet those working no matter the type of day I am having. The food was pretty good, and was a great size to fill me up! I would love to come back when I visit town again and hopefully become a regular!

So disappointed, my wife hasn't had a bagel in almost two years because of health issues. We always…read moreliked this place and decided to just have ONE. Both of our orders were wrong, but hers was completely wrong (ordered caprese but got sun dried tomato spread on a cold hard, bagel) She's so bummed and I really wish we went ANYWHERE else.

Now that I live near Kettle Black, I swing by regularly to see if the line has died down and there…read moreis still food left. I think my original experience was tainted by the long line. I don't like to wait in line, and the too-hot coffee colored my experience. I don't wait in line, but I've warmed up to them. They make some good croissants. I love their baguettes and sandwich loaves. My husband loves their bagels and focaccia. There are often pretzels left, and we still enjoy those. On a weekday, I'll walk past on my way to the El and stop in if they are still open. My Center City co-workers get to enjoy Kettle Black without the line! I like that they have vegan options and try to score those if my vegan family members will be visiting.

I bought two bagels with specialty cream cheese, a cinnamon roll with icing, a jalapeño cheddar…read morepretzel, and a cheddar jalapeño focaccia loaf. The bagels were fresh and soft with the little bit of tanginess expected from bagel dough, and the additional flavor from the everything seasoning and cheddar blended with the cream cheese well. Cinnamon roll was also softer than expected with just the right amount of icing, like an upgrade from the classic Cinnabon roll. Focaccia was moist and flavorful, great for sharing at my family party. Didn't get to taste pretzel because it was for my boyfriend. Tip 1: Come here before 9! I came too late at 10am one day and everything was already sold out. Kettle Black fans are BIG fans! In warmer months, people might start lining up at 7:30 just before opening at 8 for the best stuff. The second time I came, I rolled up at 8:45 to find a long but reasonable line. Like, maybe a 15 min wait to get inside. Some items (everything cheddar bagel and pretzel bun) were sold out, but many items were still in stock. Tip 2: Get specialty cream cheese. I got a bacon cheese pepper cream cheese, which had thick chunks of bacon mixed throughout and it was much better than expected thanks to the meatiness. There typically aren't sandwiches like lox bagels available. Tip 3: Highly recommend the hot coffee. It's their own blend that they get from a specialty roaster and it's got this mellow flavor without being bitter or sour. I needed to put in extra effort to get here, so I wouldn't come in every week. But it's a nice treat every other month. Other notes: Staff was very accommodating and patient, seemed happy to be there, and gave me great advice. Not a place to sit and eat, more of a grab-and-go.

The pastry's are great. I had their blueberry bun and it was not too sweet! Loved it!read more

I had gotten this with my partner and we had gotten two separate items, I had gotten the Tasker…read morebagel and they had gotten the Market bagel, we had both gotten egg on them, we had gotten there late so they only had the "leftover" bagels which does show to me they either do not bake enough bagels in preparation or did not prepare them if they had them, the bagel was good itself, the Tasker came with salmon and it was Smokey but not noticeable and the egg was way too thick, but not noticeable either, I had dropped about half of the stuff in my bagel before finishing it. The service was amazing and it fast especially for one person, the bagels were put together nicely and tasted as if it was made carefully. The place itself was a very "hole in the wall" kinda place it is definitely a place you have to be aware that it's there, I would love for there to be an area to sit down inside but it's small so it's understandable. Overall they did a very good job with the bagels and the service and I hope they can grow to make it to a larger spot, will definitely be returning.
