A quick Yelp search produced Donuts4You a quick walk from the house. Upon entering, I was quickly greeted by Manager Jakob who put together a great selection of a dozen donuts with random toppings. Reasonable prices, fast courteous service and very good donuts. Well worth a stop if you are looking for something apart from "the usual"!

Good sized donuts, $1.75 a piece, for the most part. $17.50 for a dozen, which there are plenty of choices to build from. I lost count halfway through and had trouble picking between some of the options...too many seemed too good. Friendly service, and the employees are helpful when making choices. I really enjoyed their boston cream...the chocolate frosting here is above and beyond.

The parking here is abysmal. Loads of people out the door for something that is just okay. I think the place used to be a vacation home so it makes sense why there isn't any parking. If this was more of a hole in the wall hidden gem type of place I think I could get down for it. Just not worth the trouble in my opinion.

Continued 5 STAR LOVE AND ADMIRATION for Kind Cup coffee shop and its very cool, eclectic…read morecollection of handmade jewelry, home decor, art pieces and clothing housed inside (you would never guess all that's inside the shop unless you ventured in!). Kind Cup, first and foremost, is an indie coffee spot that has amazing (strong, not wimpy weak) coffee and latte drinks, a (usually well stocked) display case of baked goods (get there early in the busy season else the pickin's will be slim!). This time, I had the butter cake and it was delicious and complimented my flavored latte brilliantly. Staff is always friendly and amazing! Don't be in a huge rush when you go there and be sure to head out back - there's a beautifully manicured and cared for garden area with some seating and tables sprinkled around the grounds to sit, sip and take it all in - giving faraway feel vibes. I posted a bunch of new pics and vids this visit (including of the garden area) so check them out and see what the inside is like as well as a cool vid of the pretty garden area. I would recommend coming here (when it's not too hot lol) to stroll around the entire Historic Corolla Village. You can truly spend a day here - at least a few hours / half day - just park your car ANYWHERE - plenty of parking in the historic village and just start strolling. Everything is walkable and it's so easy to explore the area. Hit the tiny Corolla Village BBQ shack for great pork bbq sandwiches $10 (top off your sando with their coleslaw yum!), check out the famous Corolla lighthouse and stop in to the lighthouse gift shop, visit the maritime museum, stroll by the beautiful yellow painted Whalehead Club mansion, browse the Island Bookstore, visit the Wildlife Education Center / Museum or just be lazy and bring a chair and a book and camp out on a grassy spot overlooking the sound. The Kind Cup though should be your first stop to grab a latte and a pastry! Can't get much better than that! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Don't be discouraged if the line is long, the staff works diligently with a smile and you'll leave with a smile. I don't know how they do it with so many people coming and going, but they keep the shop clean. Highly recommended if you're in the Outer Banks!
