    I have been hearing non stop things about how amazing Sandy's donuts are for a while and after it…read moretook us a while to get back up to Fargo, we finally made the stop. We ended up going to the location downtown on a Sunday. Parking was incredibly easy on this freezing Sunday. There was no line when I went in around 10:30 am. They certainly were starting to run out of donuts but still had a great selection. I opted to get a few filled (cookies and cream, butterfinger), glazed (raised) and old fashioned. The filled were fine, however I've never been one for filled donuts so my judgement is not the best. I am a glazed (raised or cake), cake, and old fashioned type of donut gal. I found the donuts to be good. Not sure life changing, but good.

    Stopped by while in town for a night since I saw their name everywhere around town. It's a cute…read moreshop with mom-and-pop vibes and all the kids working the counter were really nice. It was around 10am and they were almost entirely sold out but I think that has a bit more to do with their location and reputation than the donuts themselves. We got a coffee bismark and an old fashioned. The coffee one was decent, if slightly doughy. Not too sweet but I wish the coffee bitterness came through a bit more to offset it. The old fashioned itself was ok but just way too sweet. Texture was nice but couldn't get any of the slight tang you want from a good old fashioned. Pretty sure it was just powdered sugar and water. I think a touch of lemon juice in the glaze would have made the flavor pop and using some egg white would help it set without needing that high ratio of sugar/liquid. It was worth a trip and if I was craving a donut it'd work but I probably wouldn't seek them out.
