    Small sampling of donuts! Also wasn't the biggest fan of their maple bacon. They need to cook the bacon more. But the rest are good
    Cindy E.

    So I've never actually been inside and I've only brought them home but, they are pretty good but I have a couple gripes with them. I understand that creative license is a big thing in food. But when there is a classic item that people are expecting to be a certain way and you mess with that, it doesn't go over well. At least not for me. Specifically I'm talking about their very loose interpretation of a Boston cream donut. I also love a good maple bacon donut but , they definitely need to cook the bacon for those donuts more. Both of these are in my pictures, so you can see what I'm talking about. Overall the variety and flavor of the donuts is pretty great, but I've also dealt with a lot of attitude from the staff. So I didn't appreciate that. As I said I haven't been in the actual location myself but to speak to the Ambiance at least the parking lot and that situation is not the greatest. It does look very clean from what I've seen, but there are other places I would go before here. That said if you're close by and craving a donut definitely worth a stop in. I do still want to visit one day and get something other than Donuts. But for now this is where I stand. Don't take my word for it though give them a try if you're in the area!

    Outstanding donut shop with great coffee and service. $14 for half dozen. The staff really take care of customers. Good location. Most highly recommended!

    Pistachio and chocolate covered old fashion, maple bacon,  red velvet, sprinklers

    In an area that is saturated with Dunkin' Donuts, it was nice to find something different. In a sit down, modern location, Joe donut is offering up some of the more progressive varieties in the area. Grabbed a half dozen including a maple bacon, red velvet, pistachio old fashioned, chocolate covered old fashioned, and sprinkles for the kids represents the most expensive donuts I've ever purchased coming in at $14. Looks like they also serve some traditional egg sandwiches and espresso drinks. First samples of the donut collection showed signs that some were not fresh baked that morning with the glaze crumbling off in chunks on the first bite and the cream cheese topping on the red velvet being oxidized. Even though they have some of the more unique donut offerings, I prefer mine to be fresh baked.

    Decided to pop in here one afternoon as I've passed this place quite a few times. I looked at the menu before going in but they were already sold out of some of their donuts so I went with what they had. The good? The berry flavored donuts were my favorite. Typically I like chocolate flavored but I was a bit let down with the Oreo, chocolate frosted old fashioned, and s'mores donuts. I think next time I would want to check out their food menu versus donuts. Not sure if I'd be up to paying $12 + tax for the donuts again.

    Grade A Cafe has both classic breakfast options and lunch options on their menu (e.g. burgers,…read morewraps, etc.). I opted to go with the corned beef hash which comes with two eggs, hash browns, and your choice of pancakes or toast. It was neither disappointing, nor exceptional. Good enough to be enjoyed without any major complaints. It seemed like others at my table who had been there before ordered sandwiches/burgers which they seemed quick to wolf down. Service was attentive and friendly. Our server did a good job making sure we always had coffee on our table and water filled up throughout our meal. Grade A Cafe is a more open-style bistro with a nice quiet breakfast diner ambiance to help ease you into your day. I also noticed the place seemed to get much busier the closer we got to lunch time. Long story short, you won't be disappointed by their breakfast options, but might be pleasantly surprised by their lunch ones.

    Decided to try a new breakfast place and saw the good reviews on this place so my husband and I…read morestopped in. The place was empty which I can't really review on that considering it was a Tuesday morning. They had one server who didn't look happy to be there and wasn't the friendliest. I ordered gluten-free avocado toast and my husband ordered eggs Benedict. Both were just "meh." My bread must've been walked past a toaster because it was soft and soggy. The avocado had no flavor and the eggs were overcooked so I ended up ripping them off and the fruit that came with it was only 4 pieces. My husband said the same about his muffin that it was not toasted, the eggs were overcooked, and all of it had no flavor, including the potatoes that came with it. I could maybe understand the subpar food if the place were busy but we were only one of two tables in there. On top of that, we were overcharged for our meals but I wasn't going to argue over a few dollars, I just wanted to leave. So having said that, we will definitely not be back and will stick to our favorite breakfast place that is always consistently good.

    We were in the area and someone recommended this restaurant for breakfast. I love the high ceilings…read moreand plenty of windows with natural lighting. The restaurant is decorated very nicely, they put a lot of thought in colors and decor. Our waitress was very sweet and knowledgeable, I appreciated her input. I ordered coffee and my cup was never left empty. They have a really sweet man who comes around and tops off your coffee cups. They have specials and a kids menu too. The bathroom latches are way too high for a child to lock the door, but they do have a fold down changing table in the woman's restroom. (Not in the stall) They do have high chairs for toddlers. I actually need a chair to rest my leg on because I cannot bend my right knee. Our waitress was very nice about it... however a man came up to me and told me it was a fire hazard to have a chair in the aisle... so what about the kids high chairs? The chair was completely pushed under the table... so I had no choice but to put my foot up on the other side of the booth (which I was avoiding). Also the booth cushion is not attached so when you lean on it it comes up... making it very hard for a handicapped person like me to get in and out of a booth. other than that our experience was enjoyable. My husband ordered the corned beef hash breakfast. It came with Corned beef Hash, 2 eggs (he ordered his scrambled) diced potatoes or hashed browns (he picked diced potatoes) and toast or pancakes. That is a lot of food for him, so I am going to eat his pancakes. I also ordered two eggs over easy off the sides menu. The portion sizes are large. My husband's scrambled eggs looked more like 3 eggs and not two. The food was nice and hot and tasty. Highly recommended dining here if you're in the area. Will be back.

Upon arriving we were told what our additional wait would be and it was within the parameters of what was communicated when we initially joined the waitlist.

I also paid a bit extra for specialty pancakes because I am a huge fan of the red velvet pancakes. They are sweet and decadent but I can never pass up the opportunity. My daughter ordered the Açaí bowl which was a large portion and had ample ingredients with fruit and granola. It was nicely frozen and fresh. It was more than enough to fill her.

While I understand that this is a small run shop I will say that standing in line and waiting on a Saturday morning really is discouraging. The food however, a super delicious and came out very timely. So absolutely no complaints for me and they also have a water station set up so you can help yourself to water which is fantastic. After sitting around for about an hour to an hour and a half this place got super packed with families's children and strollers which made it even harder to move around. The ambience is fantastic so definitely worth it for your social media. I would come back here again, however I'm not really someone to order alcohol here at this time but for breakfast I think it's great.
