Great yeast donuts that were so light and fluffy. I always pick up the jelly filled ones and that's the yardstick with which I'll grade a donut place. The banana creme, apple and raspberry filled were absolutely delicious. My friend had picked the other three and she enjoyed those as well! Wish we could've gone back for more but now I know that if I'm ever in the Granville area again, I'll make sure to visit!

I would give it less. Not only for not wearing masks like you are expected to do. I have talked to the health department and they don't agree with you. But then to tell a customer to STFU and then defend it by continuing to talk badly about your customers. I am a 30+ year customer and my mom has been going longer. But I will no longer ever come back. Also FYI she is in the health industry, so she puts her life on the line in nursing homes to make sure people are ok. So ensuring she is ok and her patients by wearing a mask and being around others who are doing the same is being smart, and responsible. Thank you for showing your true unprofessional side.

Visited for the first time and I'm not sure I get the hype I see in other reviews. Got a cream-filled longjohn, a peanut butter-filled chocolate-iced yeast donut, and a chocolate old fashioned. They were fine. The pastry was good--light and fluffy for the yeast donuts, dense but tender for the old fashioned--but the fillings were skimpy. Maybe it was a rough day, but the customer service left something to be desired, too. Placing my order felt like I was inconveniencing the folks who work there. I don't expect anyone to act like I made their day by showing up at the shop, but I'd prefer not to be scowled at. Lastly, walking into the shop, you're greeted by a sign that says guns are welcome and that the store is protected by the second amendment. I think I'm gonna keep hunting for better donuts with a less aggressive feel.

The best kind of donut shops are the ones with cheap donuts and great customer service. Jolly Pirate Donuts is your simple, hole-in-the-wall donut shop that offers the classic donuts (glazed, sprinkled, and filled). Since it's open 24/7, you can come here for breakfast or a late night snack. However, I would suggest coming here when it's still light out (it can get a little sketchy at night time). If you do find yourself in the small town of Newark, definitely stop by here! You'll meet friendly folks and enjoy some classic donuts.

We found this great little coffee shop while on a trip for my brother-in-laws basketball…read moretournament. The staff are super friendly and helpful, and the coffee was excellent! A few things we really enjoyed: first, even in a small-ish town they had plenty of non-dairy milk options that my wife could have. She got an iced 1/2 caff latte with almond milk and vanilla syrup and said it was very good both times. Second, and even better, they carry gluten free, vegan baked goods!! (See my review on Madelyn's). These are egg free, dairy free, and gluten free ! All very good and highly recommended. When we come back to the area for a longer visit we will definitely come back here!

A friend visits River Road Coffee House daily because he lives it so much. When I was in town…read moretaking him to brunch, I had to check it out. I needed caffeine anyway for a long drive back home. I wasn't sure what to expect when I pulled up as the building is pretty plain from the outside, but I was excited that it had its own parking lot. I received a very warm greeting when I entered. The girl who took my order was so kind and we had a nice conversation about Matcha. River Road just got Matcha, so I was excited to be able to order that. It is unsweetened, which is great, because then you can control how sweet you want it. They also had a sign out front stating they made their pumpkin syrup in-house, so I got a regular Matcha latte with that pumpkin syrup and it was 6/5 stars! Oh my gosh, I wish I lived closer so that I could get it more often. The food menu looked delicious and if I hadn't just come from brunch, I would've grabbed something. They also have a little grab and go counter if you're in a hurry. The decor was simple, but cute. Two things I liked most were a drink, inspiration board listing so many different flavor combinations, and a Polaroid picture board of all the dogs who have come through the drive-through.
