The family that owns this shop is so incredibly nice. This shop has become a family favorite quickly. I'm here weekly. I am very certain in my ways and they have a French cruller that they make care that is absolutely perfect. It's probably the best one I've ever had. The shop is so cute and inviting. They have an actual bathroom that is always clean. I have not had any of their ice cream selections, but I have had their cold brew and they do have several sugar-free options which is nice. This is a local owned business so a great opportunity to support some great people and your community at the same time. read more

Stopped in to try today at the food truck festival. We ended up getting 2 scoop cups and a milkshake. The ice cream was really good, and the scoop sizes are excellent! They have an assortment of flavors and the staff is very nice. It has an old time feel and is very clean. Cons- the google page has old pictures from the previous owner that they no longer have. The milkshake was very milk tasting and not very thick. We will be back to try some different things! Look out for the next review! read more

Local owned ice cream and donuts shop in Port Royal. They make the donuts there not sure about the ice cream but I can say the dark chocolate ice cream was good. They also had had coffee and hot chocolate when we were there Good stuff: 1. Donuts were good - the donuts we had were less cakey more like a sweet krispy cream style. 2. Ice cream was good- not sure if they make it or order it 3. Service was good- respectful and attentive Not so good stuff: 1. Nothing Extra info: 1. A lot of Parking along the street- free 2. Beautiful walk through the older town 3. It is small inside -- seating is limited but there is some seating outside and a beautiful park you can walk to and eat If you want a donut or ice cream drop by and then go for a walk around the small town or park read more

Maynard’s Ice cream & Cafe - Donuts Near Me - Port Royal, South Carolina

Staff were extremely friendly. Clean and cozy shop. I would recommend checking this place out if near the area

Ridiculously over priced basic run of the mill everything.. Can't believe what they charge.. If another ship with decent ice cream opens this place will go under with these prices.. Right now I feel like they rely on people who drip in on vacation and just end up paying.. Locals and regulars would probably go elsewhere. Nothing special. Sorry. read more

Whew! The donuts here are exceptional! I'd give my left arm for some of their chocolate that covers the donuts. Today I also had that chocolate on a brownie. Oh.my.word. Here is the deal: -they can and will sell out of the donuts each day. -Check FB for their daily selection before going. -They also have ice cream, Popsicles (locally made by another entrepreneur), kettle corn (the bomb.com and also made by another entrepreneur, macaroons, merch., and more I love that they support other local entrepreneurs and are super friendly. I got 6 donuts/baked goods for around $12. I feel like this is reasonable because everything is locally made. Oh, another plus? Veteran-owned! business! read more

Lovely little place in Port Royal. Staff was really friendly. Will continue to go here when we come to Port Royal.

We love seeing Port Royal bloom with new local businesses and Maynard's was one we hadn't visited. Saturday morning we were on our way to Bluffton so we decided to stop in for their donuts. The selection was meh. We ordered a glazed yeast donut and a glazed red velvet cake one. The plain donut was OK. The red velvet tasted of only sugar. The second I broke it apart so I could share the sweet, I could tell it didn't have a moist crumb. It was so dry, with no discernible chocolate flavor. For $3 a donut, we shook our heads in disappointment. No, we will not return. read more

Maynard’s Ice cream & Cafe - Between two people, this is what we did not eat. Just an incredibly tasteless and dry red velvet donut. - Donuts Near Me - Port Royal, South Carolina

Everything about this place is great! The women who work here are kind and provide great service. The location is close to the wetlands and there is parking in front. Best donuts in Beaufort ! Also great mocha lattes read more

Finally, a delicious normal glaze donut! I don't have to eat dry subpar donuts from Dunkin anymore. Also, reg black coffee is a plus. It's the simple things in life that make some of us happy. No ridiculous long Starbucks lines promoting planned parenthood to contribute money to. I will try their ice cream now that it's getting warm again. read more

I LOVE great donuts. I've had some of the best donuts in the world. In my opinion, Texas has the best, with Denver coming in a close second. THE BEST donuts in the low country is Maynard's Ice Cream & Cafe. a Cozy cafe, that has both HAND DIPPED ice cream, soda's, but UNBELIEVABLE DONUTS!! The hours can be tricky, so I advise you call to see if they're open. They're currently getting ready to expand, and extend their hours. You just want to sit down and eat great donuts. I've had donuts from a competitor which were good, however the mix wasn't just right. But, Maynards wins hands down! My suggestion, get a dozen, head down the street to "THE SANDS BEACH" and watch the dolphins as you're enjoying these great donuts! on my MUST VISIT LIST! Enjoy, CHEF GARY CURRY read more

Charming Ice Cream and doughnut shop in Port Royal. Several choices of creamy ice cream and tons of topping choices. I had the mint chocolate chip and cookies and cream ice cream with Oreo topping and was so creamy. My husband had the Blueberry Cream Pie milkshake and it was thick and tasty! We also grabbed a few doughnuts and they were so fresh and full of flavor. They are baked daily by the owner. The couple who owns the shop are very friendly as well. We loved meeting Maynard, who the shop is named after. It's truly a small town feel with classic and tasty delectables! read more

Donuts are good and I appreciate it is vet owned. As for the ice cream I was disappointed as they literally give the smallest scoop possible and charged $4.00 plus another .50 for the cone. I get inflation but that's a bit much. I definitely won't be back for ice cream, not worth it. The baked good are delicious. read more

We stopped by Maynard's after taking a walk on Sands Beach and the board walk. Ordered a moose tracks milk shake and a watermelon lime pop.

Super welcoming cashiers! Hubby & I came in an hour before closing hoping to find donuts (they usually sell out) and we got a couple of free donuts besides the ones we purchased!! Cannot believe how amazing their donuts are but seriously, their Oreo bundts are to die for!!! read more

Great ice cream and lots of tempting flavors! Cookies were delicious too! Friendly service.

The chocolate cake and the apple pastry we had were both delicious. They were sold out of donuts when we got there but the desserts were so good we decided to go back there today. No luck today though as they don't open til 12. Donuts will have to wait til next time. read more
