Overrated! For starters, customer service was atrocious, with very rude employees! The cream in the donuts was a sugary white cream, similar to Duncan Donuts - - and NOT butter cream, as advertised. The size of the donut was another disappointment - - half the size of a normal donut! Not sure what all the hype is - - we definitely will not return! read more

Absolutely the best cream filled donuts you will ever put in your mouth. The crumb buns are awesome too! They are well worth the wait! Get there early to avoid a line! It's a family tradition! read more

Had the homemade cream donuts wow !! You gotta try them, will be going back soon to try all the other stuff the have.

Favorite bakery for many years. We can never wait for them to open on Mother's Day!! It's a must visit for the best buns under the sun! Be sure to get there early!!! Congrats on 70 years!!! read more

Decent donuts and what-not. The cream-filleds, jellies, and powders are my favorite. They didn't have much else when I was there. Luckily, we went at a not so busy time (930am, Tuesday). Unrelated observation: I felt like I walked into Santa's workshop at the North Pole. Kids ran this place. read more

I have been eating Kohler's donuts, cinnamon buns, honey crisps, and assorted other goodies from this bakery for all of my life (I am 62 years old). It is the best. read more

The only place you need to know to get your donuts at the shore!! I've been going to Kohlers all my life and from the moment my family starts coming to the shore to our place by the bay spring thru after Labor Day I have to ride my bike for my treats! My teenage son now rides with me... cream donuts for me and sticky buns for my parents. When you visit our special shore town- stop by! It's a must visit and eat! read more

Yum, yum, yum. Sticky buns. Yum, yum, yum. Just make sure to get here at 8 AM or you will have a long wait even at 8:15 or 8:30. read more

Fresh and delicious baked goods. We got there right after opening and were handed a number (via deli number machine) We waited about 30 mins but boy was it worth it!! The currant rolls are to die for as well as the cinnamon twist with almond. Cream filled donuts made the boys in the family happy as well. Get there early for delicious donuts! read more

The cream donuts are the absolute best! I look forward to Saturdays when I grab a dozen for my office and set aside two for myself. Each bite is a taste of happiness! The vanilla buttercream cake is hands down the best I've ever tasted and the cookies are jammed packed with sweetness. The staff is always friendly and using the pre-ordering system is a game changer! Kohlers should be on your list of places to visit in Avalon read more

Kohler's cream doughnuts are the most delicious things you will ever eat. Always great, friendly service, too. Can't wait till they open this year! read more

What they make here is absolute heaven! And you can tell by the crowds of people there EVERY morning. If you don't get there early, you aren't able to get much. Like a few businesses down in South Jersey Shore area, they only take cash. Their methods for taking orders are a bit archaic and their system could be improved. So prepare yourself with patience and frustration when you go to visit. But the rewards are worth the effort. I highly recommend the lemon bars, cream filled puffs, and (what my family affectionately calls) "Seashore Bread" (a cylinder-shaped loaf of white bread that's as soft and as sweet as what bread in heaven would be!). read more

Best jelly donuts ever! I love the cinnamon sugar with the raspberry jelly!! Be sure to get the cream donuts as well. The krowlers (sp?) are so light and fluffy- they are a must. read more

My family has been going to Kohler's for more than 40 years. Kohler's isn't just a tradition for us - our vacation isn't complete without it. Everything is so good, it's impossible to pick one favorite. Cream donuts, jelly donuts, sticky buns, crumb buns, cheese danish, cherry danish, lemon danish, coconut macaroons, butter cake....and the round bread? My husband likes it so much that if you aren't around when it comes into the house, you won't see it. Don't miss a chance to visit Kohler's - if you're in Avalon or if you're even close to Avalon - you won't be disappointed. read more

Best bakery in avalon. Family owned and a staple of the community. Sticky buns with raisins and cream donuts are the way to go

Incredible donuts! Worth every calorie for sure. The best staff on the island. You can't visit Avalon and not experience a Kohlers cream donut! read more

Amazing sticky buns!! The coffee cake and donuts are great too. We've been going there ever since I can remember and they have never disappointed! read more

We'd heard their donuts were amazing so stopped by last year on our way home from Cape May. Donuts: pretty good but I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to get them. Cream donuts are filled with fresh whipped cream, nice and light. Customer service: I was so traumatized that I don't think I would go back ever again. After waiting 30 minutes or so for our pastries, our preschooler needs to use the bathroom, so I ask the employee working behind the counter if there is a bathroom available. Her answer is no, there are no bathrooms for customers, and she sends us to another store, which sends us to another store, which sends us to another store...if you have ever dragged/carried an increasingly frantic preschooler who is about to wet his pants, you'll know how I was feeling at this point. Finally, at a loss as to what to do, I head back to Kohler's. Like many parents who have been in this unenviable and desperate position, I take him behind the store next to a dumpster. As my son is almost done emptying his bladder of what is probably, at most, a quarter cup of urine, a woman (perhaps the manager?) comes out and starts screaming and berating me and my THREE-YEAR-OLD son. Mortified and shocked, I tried to apologize and explain the situation and even offer to wash down his scant sprinkling with a hose, but she would have none of it. Hearing the commotion, the owner comes out and is extremely gracious and understanding about it but by this point my son and I are both in tears. His employee then said she is a mom too and I should have just asked to use the bathroom...and I am left speechless. tl;dr: decent donuts, long wait, no bathroom, scary employees, nice owner read more

Best doughnuts you'll ever have! The sticky buns are a personal favorite. There is a reason this bakery has been around for so long. If you're visiting the shore you have to stop here, don't care what beach, it's worth the trip! read more

KB donuts put a smile on their customers face. That first Bite wakes up your taste buds. read more

An Avalon institution that one cannot miss whether you are visiting for the day, the week or the entire summer. The cream donuts are amazing. Same for the crumb buns and donuts. Classic baking, simple ingredients will keep you coming back for more. Remember cash only and get there early! read more

I asked if the powdered sugar covered twisted cruller was a cake donut. The girl said it was but it wasn't cakey or crumbly. Nor was it light and airy like a yeast donut. It was slightly tough, like biting into a zepolle. That isn't a bad thing, just not what I expected. They make a mean peanut butter cookie. read more

Hands down my favorite bakery down the shore. The cream donuts are a little slice of heaven. They melt in your mouth! The only thing that would make this place perfect is if they were open year round. I look forward to every summer where i can stop in to Kohler's. They are the best!! read more

This bakery is divine. The cream donuts taste like you have arrived in heaven. Cupcakes are solid. Wanting to try the cinnamon rolls and to see how they do shipping to Philly. read more

Kohler's is a must in Avalon! Their cream donuts are a summer staple in our family. Don't be scared off if there is a line because it is SO WORTH IT! read more

Best cream donuts, crumb buns, cinnamon buns in Avalon. Can't say enough- we usually 'stock up' at the end of the Summer and freeze dozens of cream donuts. read more

Love this place. Great owners. Best sticky buns and donuts in town.

Stopped by for our annual family doughnut fix. The cream doughnuts were my family's favorite, but there was a little too much cream in them for my taste. The jelly were my favorite. We also had the crumb cake and glazed doughnuts, both of which were good, but the crumb cake was a bit doughy. This is a real deal bakery. read more

Simply the best. Always fresh, and the service is always friendly -- even when the line is out the door. You can't skip the cream donuts, but make sure to get there early (or order ahead the day before) to avoid some of the wait. read more

Nice establishment. Quick service, tasty pastries, free smells.

"I don't eat sweet, fried dough food, BUT I will indulge in Kohler's cream filled donuts! Whether its tradition, being on vacation or simply they are extremely delicious. Part of the draw is standing in line after picking my ticket and seeing there are 25 customer..." read more

This is a summertime must! If you are looking for delicious breakfast treats, you cannot go wrong with Kohler's. The sticky buns and cream filled donuts are SO good. Cakes can be ordered for summer birthdays too! Once you stop into Kohler's bakery you will want to go back! read more

The best bakery in Avalon. Always a great treat when on vacation. Cheese buns are crazy good. Get there early, they sell out.

Best cream donuts on the planet!!! Amazing staff and delicious sticky buns, crumb buns, donuts, and much more! Definitely a must on 7 Mile Island. read more

The bakery goods at Kohler's are beyond description. Let's just say that the cream donuts are so good that your sister will FedEx a dozen of them to you when she finds out you are spending your birthday in Colorado and not Avalon. Because there's no such thing in our family as a July birthday without Kohler's cream donuts. read more

Everything we have tried from this bakery has been AMAZING! Their cream donuts alone are worth the drive from the Philly area. But our family favorite is the coffee cake. At the end of the season we always try to stock our freezer so we can enjoy Kohlers all winter long! If you are at any of the Jersey beaches be sure to take a drive in to Avalon (call your order in ahead to save time). read more

Do not be discouraged by lines! I was number 86 and number 62 was called when I walked in, but 15 minutes later I had my cream filled donuts, crullers, crumb buns, and cupcakes! Yummy! The girls are super efficient! read more

I consider a good coffee & donut to be one of the most sacred combinations on this earth. Please if you're a lover of cream filled donuts & or sticky buns please stop here while visiting Avalon! Order ahead if you want to take some home they will have it waiting for you! Go early because they sell out quick! read more

Family owned and run bakery that's as good as it gets. A little secret- go down the afternoon before you want your goodies, and order and pay for them then. The next morning, all you have to do is go in and get your bag with your last name on it. Our favorites? The cinnamon donuts filled with raspberry jam, the crumb buns (or crumbunnies, as we call 'em), and the sinkers (cause they sink in your stomach), a cream-filled delight that probably has 1,000 calories in it but may be the best thing ever. read more

Amazing crumb-buns and sticky buns!! This is the real reason I come to Avalon ;)
