    SO many flavors to choose from! Each donut has layers of flavor depending on what you get ... my personal favorites are the churro, sandy beach, raspberry pistachio, bourbon caramel and turtle cheesecake but my ultimate favorite are the cinnamon sugar minis with the vanilla dip. I love how this location is on the IU Indy campus as well, service is always friendly here too! If you haven't tried Parlor, give it a try

    Coconut and Strawberry donut

    Parlor Donuts will change your life! This is a croissant style donut that is buttery, flaky and delicious. I especially love the coconut because it is well balanced and not too sweet. It is hands down my favorite donut spot to date and I always take friends/family here or get them a box as a gift because they are that good! The staff is pleasant and although the donut shop is small, the decor is nice.

    INCREDIBLE donuts! Fancy, fresh, and they always hit the spot. One of our favorite donut locations! Don't miss this spot if you have the opportunity to stop.

    Such underrated coffee and savory bites! The first time I had Parlor was in Bloomington. I never realized how much variety their menu had. Today I tried the vanilla bean latte and it's top 3 for me in terms of flavor/espresso. I usually order pick up and go but they do have seating if you want somewhere chill to have a snack or sweet treat. I will have to try more doughnut flavors in the future. It's a great place for a pick-me-up and staff has been friendly thus far

    Our first experience with Parlor Donuts was in Richmond IN. They are on the chocolate trail. Decided to give this location a try. The doughnuts didn't seem as fresh as the ones we had in Richmond. While the service was ok , being a bit more friendly or upbeat would go along way. Looking around the restaurant was a bit grubby in places. Trash was completely full and needed emptying. Walls were dirty and in need of a scrub. Floors need a good moping. Small details make a big difference.

    In a hunt to find the best donuts in Indy, I finally stopped at Parlor Doughnuts. I enjoy a doughy/very yeasty donut. So, I wasn't sure that Parlor Doughnuts would be for me. Overall, the donut is very doughy on the inside, which I enjoyed, but the outside is a little too crispy for my liking.

    Yummy donut options!

    They are one of the few places that offer gluten free donuts. They are cake donuts with semi customizable glazes and toppings. They recently took away several gluten free options which was really disappointing. The breakfast tacos are very appetizing. The service is good but often slow. This is a cute mini cafe style restaurant good for a brief casual catch up.

    Maple, s'mores, Maple Pecan, and Cookies N' Cream

    These donuts are so fabulous. This time I ordered off the too good to go app and got 4 delicious donuts for $6. I can't wait to go back and try more flavors. The service was very fast and welcoming.

    SO good & so sweet. Ordered a custom half dozen to-go, didn't even make it out the door before eating three. So many unique flavors to choose from which is really fun. They do run out of some flavors if they're popular, so it is best to arrive earlier in the day if you are looking to grab some donuts.

    Maple Pecan

    The coconut cream mini is one of the best donuts I've had in a long time. The minis even come with your choice of dip - chocolate, vanilla, or maple. Does it need a dip? No. Do I absolutely want a dip every time I eat a donut now? Yes. I ordered for delivery and wasn't sure what to get so I just ordered a variety. The mini donuts are larger than your typical donut hole and honestly are the perfect size. I also got a regular-sized donut and ended up splitting it in half. The donuts are "layered" donuts and lean more towards a croissant than a regular donut, but they are light and fluffy and delicious. The flavor profiles all sounded amazing and I had a hard time choosing. The maple pecan was good, but the coconut cream mini was even better and my favorite of the bunch. It looked like they had a good variety of seasonal items that I look forward to trying as well.

    My son getting his braces taken off coincided with a Yelp Elite event here, so I did what a good mother does and took my son for sugary sweets to celebrate. My 2 free donuts were possibly some of the best donuts I've ever had. The crisp outsides paired with the fluffy inside texture, really made the French Toast donut heavenly. Paired with a Carmel Latte, I had to save my decadent Chocolate Chocolate donut for later. These donuts are sizely and sweet. I opted for Oatmilk in my latte, and it was perfection. Not too sweet, so it was the perfect compliment to my donut. My son can typically out eat me in sweets, but his S'mores donut was so rich and filling that he also had to save his second donut for later. He said that both the S'mores and Cookies and Creme were very good. I saw someone else get an Acai bowl, and it looked so delicious that I'll be sure to stop in for one of those next time. Really neat little shop. I love the vibe and decor, and the customer service was stellar.

    One of my favorite places to go with friends! This shop is warm and feels local with Americana decor, but there are multiple locations throughout the country. I've always had helpful interactions with staff who point me in the right direction with my dietary restrictions. There are vegan, gluten free, keto, and general menu options! There is a tip jar with a note that states to please hand tips directly to staff because the public keeps stealing the money from the jar, which made my heart sad for them. Support your local businesses and staff with some tips to help them out!

Same great staff, same cool space, same open kitchen where a party of one like me can grab a counter seat and watch the chefs do their thing. I've honestly always enjoyed that part of the experience. Today I had the avocado toast with feta and an egg on top, and it totally hit the spot. Earlier this week I tried one of the newer menu items -- fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, plus a sample of jalapeño cornbread and Asian slaw. Incredible comfort food. And as someone who normally isn't much of a slaw person, I was surprised by how much I loved it. They also tried to tempt me with the roast beef special, which honestly looked great, but at 10:30 in the morning I just couldn't fully commit to roast beef yet. Maybe next time. The new name is a nice tribute to the owner's mother, Arleen, but thankfully it still feels like the Milktooth so many of us have come to enjoy over the years.

We were too full for dessert, but I'll be sure to leave room when I come back next time!

    **Bluebeard... wtf**…read more Bluebeard has been on my Indianapolis restaurant list since I moved here from Chicago in 2021. I've found some really great restaurants here over the years, so I was especially excited to finally make it to Bluebeard. Each year during Devour, my husband and I pick a restaurant for each other as a surprise, and this year I chose Bluebeard. We had a 6:15 reservation and arrived about 10 minutes late due to traffic. I apologized, and we were promptly seated. Unfortunately, that's where the experience started to go downhill. Our server took about 15 minutes to come over, and although our appetizer arrived quickly (chips&dip), our drinks took another 15 minutes. I held off on ordering our meal because I wanted to do the Devour menu with the wine pairing. The food & drinks was a mixed bag: - Beauregard cocktail: 10/10 - Chips & avocado ranch dip: 8/10 - Crudo: 9/10 - Smoked fish dip: 4/10 - Mushroom ravioli: 8/10 - Short Rib Ragu: 3/10 - Chocolate crème brûlée: 3/10 There were definitely some great dishes, but the slow service and inconsistent food were disappointing for a restaurant with this reputation. The biggest issue came toward the end of the meal. The hostess came to our table and told us we needed to hurry because she needed the table for another reservation. **We were still waiting for dessert.** I explained that the service had been very slow and that we were waiting on our desserts. Our server apologized and said the hostess likely didn't realize what had been happening and was under stress. I completely understand that Devour can bring in more traffic than usual, but that's also something a restaurant at this level needs to be prepared to handle. We shouldn't have been made to feel rushed when the delays were not on our end. I really wanted to love Bluebeard after having it on my list for five years, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. For comparison, some of my favorite Indy restaurants for both food and service are Bocca, Union 50, Matador, Rosemary & Olive, Tinker Street, Strange Bird, Delicia, and Bodhi. Maybe we caught Bluebeard on an off night, but for me, this experience fell short.

Also, the grits lean heavy into jalapeno notes rather than a creamy, cheesy base. It's such a cute venue with great energy, and a few little kitchen adjustments could make it amazing!
