    6 buffet kinds of donuts couldn't wait to dig in
    Bambi B.

    I love these donuts. Always fresh and yummy. There are some tables for you to eat in here and you can watch the donuts being made. They now have wavy donuts which I have not tried but look forward to. If you get close to this place make sure to stop for you custom donuts

    Parlor Donuts - strawberry shortcake and blueberry cheesecake

    "First visit here on 3/7 after seeing a video online. We ordered three different donuts, including the 'Pig and Fig' (sausage, bacon, and fig jam) and two dessert-style donuts: Strawberry Shortcake and Blueberry Cheesecake. All three were high quality, but the sweet flavors really stole the show. It's a nice change of pace from your average donut shop. Definitely worth stopping in if you want something different."

    Well, let me just say "Wow!" This is one of the best doughnut experiences ever. We love a good doughnut and this was just amazing. Lots of choices, oversized and overstuffed, fluffy and still crispy dough, all served with a smile and in a cute and classic atmosphere. The coffee is dark and there are a few food items that round out the menu. If this place was in a big city, the line would be out the door. But then you might not get the one-on-one service they provide. The workers engage and encourage the customers to let their inner kid out when making doughnut selections. This is a destination stop for any dough-nuts out there! Fantastic!

    half dozen doughnuts- check review for which doughnut is which in order left to right (first row, 2nd row)

    Enjoyed some scrumptious doughnuts today at Parlor Doughnuts in their Lancaster, PA location. Inside is moderately big with a few tables for indoor seating. This modern cafe gives off a very bright and cozy feel. Its decor is very minimalistic, at the same time, stylish with its star patterned floor. Ambiance rate 7/10. I ordered half a dozen donuts consisting of... 1. Peanut Butter Cup: This tasted delicious! It had a strong peanut butter chocolate flavor which I loved! Rate 8/10. 2. Chocolate Chocolate: This chocolate glazed topped with chocolate chips tasted very rich. However, I'm not a huge chocolate fan, so the overkill on chocolate was too sweet for me. Rate 6/10. 3. French Toast: This was mediocre considering I barely tasted the maple syrup which was disappointing. It tasted very similar to the Sandy Beach doughnut. Rate 5/10. 4. Turtle Cheesecake: This donut had a great mix of flavors, from the chocolate to the cheesecake! It all blended great together! Rate 9/10. 5. Sandy Beach: This was also mediocre because the cinnamon flavor was very light. It tasted very similar to the French Toast Doughnut. Rate 5/10. 6. Raspberry Jelly Filled: This was incredible! The jelly had a yummy taste that wasn't too sweet! Rate 8/10. *I love the style of how the doughnuts were made. Its flaky, layered dough resembles a croissant that was incorporated into a donut. Aside from its sweet flavors, the way it was baked is what makes it delicious and unique.* The staff were nice and the service was relatively quick. Service/staff Rate: 7/10. Overall, Parlor Doughnuts was a great first experience, and I would definitely recommend others to try it!

    Wow. This place is awesome To start off with I DO NOT like yeast donuts. Very rare for me to find one I do like. These ones are layered like a croissant and insanely soft in the middle. Don't be scared by the size, they're not as heavy as you'd think The options are amazing. Made my adhd haywire. Luckily the girl working the register was very polite, gave great recommendations and patient with me It's a basic interior in a shopping plaza and very family friendly because what family doesn't love donuts

    Our dozen! The jelly is superb!

    So so so good! We came into the shop last week after a visit at Dutch. We came around 8am and the case was fully stocked of so many delicious flavors. They all looked amazing. We were behind one other couple but the service was so fast and friendly. The donuts or huge croissant masterpieces were about $3.50 a piece if memory serves me correctly. It was a little cheaper to buy a dozen and see are not local so we opted to try a bunch. See pic. We appreciated the ones labeled favorite so we were sure to try those. I also ordered a breakfast sandwich on their unglazed donut aka croissant and a coffee. The coffee wasn't very good and I could have passed on it. Wasn't very sweet and lacked pumpkin flavor (ordered the pumpkin latte). The breakfast sandwich was very good but the donut was really buttery/greasy and felt a little "yucky" on the last few bites. Still very good though. The donuts are the winner esp because we couldn't eat a whole dozen but they stayed fresh so long! We brought them home and they were good at least 5 days past the day as bought them. Still just as yummy and flaky. Even though they're huge they are light and airy. The flavors were delicious. Not too rich. My fav was the jelly. The powder and jam inside were awesome. I would have loved more. The ones with filling (other than jelly) were our least favorite. They were just too messy and didn't last as long. We ate inside and enjoyed the quiet ambiance and clean space. Lots of merch to purchase too. Would love to go back when in the area.

    Lancaster is way out there; I live way over here. There's distance. That's safe. I have worked really hard to less big my back and this place would really work against that. The problem is, it's so dang good. This is one of the best donuts I have ever had. I have crossed the country seeking good donuts and this is place is definitely top of the leader board. Just the creative combinations can be overwhelming. Mostly to your taste buds. HOW DO I CHOOSE??? I'll take them all. I will say, I walked in and the cases were mostly empty and my heart sank, but the lovely young lady behind the counter speaks up and says, "No, we have them all available still, they'll just be brought from the back". Happy happy happy. These things are amazing. The service is great. The space is lovely. Yes lovely. Don't drive here; jog there, walk home, earn the carbs.

    Super cute place with delicious and beautiful doughnuts. The layered doughnuts are crispy on the outside and soft in the inside even days after. My favorites were any with chocolate toppings. The others are good as well but the flavors are just not as strong that the doughnuts could taste bland if the bite doesn't have enough of the toppings on it. They also have good drinks. Was able to try the matcha and the lavender latter. So good. Will be returning when I visit Lancaster again.

    First Parlor Doughnuts franchise in PA! Cute location conveniently located on Route 30 and providing ample parking for locals and visitors alike. My family and I visited on a busy Saturday when "free doughnut" coupons were offered, but the staff kept the line moving! I tried the "low carb" keto-friendly cinnamon-sugar doughnut, which they say is 3g net carbs -- perfectly sized and so good it had me wondering if it really *was* low carb/low sugar! Perfectly paired with the house coffee I tried (and which you can purchase by the bag to take home and enjoy). The hubs enjoyed a sandy beach -- he was all-in on the multiple layers of fried goodness. The vanilla icing and cinnamon/sugar dusting hit the spot for him. And the kiddo really liked her cookies & cream. The pup is still giving me dirty looks for not getting him a doggie doughnut to enjoy. Next time, pup. Next time. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside at tables with umbrellas (which helps with the heat!), but we took our goodies to go since the crowd was so large. Will have to try them out during the week -- I noticed they have savvy breakfast items too! The menu listed breakfast tacos (avocado, chorizo, and bacon options), avo toast, acai bowls, spinach pesto, and I'm interested in trying their cold brew coffee and different latte flavors. Still lots to explore, but it's definitely worth checking out if you haven't already! It's far and away better than some of the other breakfast options on Rt. 30.

    Stopped here early on a Saturday morning. We were greeted right away when we walked in. The atmosphere is nice bright with modern black and white decor. There are several tables to eat inside. We both had a coconut cream donut. The donut was fresh, filled with coconut cream with whipped cream and toasted coconut on top. It was very good.

    This is a tiny spot with a lot of fans, so expect a wait!…read more My husband and I came here for brunch while staying in Lancaster - we were expecting to have to wait due to how busy it was on a Saturday morning, but we were amazingly able to be seated immediately (there were 2 last spots by the door). It's not the most comfortable place due to the size, but the smells and vibes are good, so it's worth checking out. I got the blue crab benedict with potatoes and my husband got the short rib tacos.

And then they charged us full price. And that was the final nail. We made a reservation for a noon brunch on a Sunday, we knew it was going to be busy and we got seated right away, amazing! And then it was down hill from there. We were seated right by the bussing station, I was staring at dirty dishes my entire meal, at one point I was hit and I spilled my entire cup of coffee all over my table and lap and had to clean it up myself. The French press itself was border line in drinkable. The grounds were too finely ground causing there to be grit throughout the entire pitcher of French press. We each had about one mug each. The food came out and my over easy eggs were over medium at best, the entire bottom of the yolk was hard through to the middle. Only one biscuit got gravy. And then once my partner finished his eggs he found a long black hair under where the eggs were. Needless to say we were very much done with The Bread Pedaler by the time this happened. We let the waitress know. She brought the check, which still included the food we didn't eat because there was a hair in it. Not wanting to start anything we just paid (still tipped 20% because I'm not a jerk) and left. I wish this was the great review I was hoping to leave. I was so excited to eat here. But this was truly one of the worst experiences I've had in years.

    Introduction:…read more Representing 2018 in alphabet series, O is for On Orange. The letter O only has 5 of the 8 possible years represented in the alphabet series. Interestingly, 2 of them are in Lancaster County, PA. This was prior to my parents moving to Lancaster in 2021. In March 2018, my girlfriend of that time & I took a day trip to Lancaster. I lived in Montgomery County, Maryland (near DC) at the time, and we were meeting up with a friend who was living in New Jersey kind of in the middle. We agreed to meet at On Orange at 12 PM on that Sunday, March 25 since we were driving from far away, and I think they were doing a day trip too, but possible they stayed a night in town, not sure. Also, On Orange closes at 1 PM too, so even more reason to be punctual. My g/f of then was notoriously late & took a long time to get ready. She was taking too long to get ready, and I knew we needed to leave if we even had a chance of making it on time. After a while I said I don't want to do this, but I will leave without you & meet my friend (& his girlfriend). I started the car and texted you have 1 minute to come out, and if you aren't out, I'm leaving without you. My timer reached 0, and I slowly was driving off, but I saw her shuffling with her coat and what have you leaving, so I waited. We got in the car, and I rushed off. If that weren't bad enough, my g/f said we needed to stop at her bank to get cash. Of course, there was none right within route, but saw a location right off I-83 in northern MD, Hunt Valley, but we wasted more time to get off the freeway, for her to go to her ATM, & get back on the freeway when we were running significantly late. I said we are running significantly late as it is, so why are we wasting more time. She claimed in case there was something she wanted to buy in Lancaster, but that was not the primary purpose, but I'll get to that at the end. I was panicking on the significant late, and that the restaurant closes at 1, and I drove above 100 mph at times on I-70, which I think was the only time I've ever gone that fast on 70, and maybe only 4 times ever in my life reaching that speed. Experience with the Restaurant: This is street parking around here, which was free meters on Sunday. We got a decent parking spot a block away. We walked in at 12:50 PM, which was 50 minutes LATE and 10 minutes before On Orange's closing time of 1 PM. My friend & his girlfriend were already done eating. He said that they had their stomach set for eating at 12, and there was pressure to order since it's not a huge place and pretty busy. I was annoyed with my friend for not waiting for us, but I get it because let's be honest, my g/f fault on that one. Server was cordial, and my g/f & I quickly ordered. Food came out quickly. We ate quickly, and my friend & his g/f watching us eat. Food was delicious, and they were quick, but to be fair, they were closing in 10 minutes, so they were motivated to get out of there. I got a pancake & egg dish as I recall. This was a top notch brunch. In spite of the negative experience of being so late because of my g/f, the experience at the restaurant was excellent. Conclusion: After brunch, we looked around downtown, Amish Farm (see my 5-star review of them written in April 2018), etc. and was overall a nice day with the 3 of them albeit very cold. After we left, I took the back road from I-83 all the way back to Germantown, MD where she lived to see something different and to save a little gas too since it's pretty direct going that way. My g/f was complaining about it taking so long getting back. I knew she was meeting up with a friend that night. But what I later realized, she wanted to stop at an ATM that morning really because she needed cash to pay that friend for cannabis that night. So, she disrespected everyone's time for this. I guess on a positive at least she wasn't cheating on me with that guy and really was just for pot. In conclusion, I thought On Orange was top notch, and they were accommodating to our time schedules.

The bigger issue, though, was the food. Several courses were noticeably undercooked and difficult to enjoy. The carrot salad had hard, undercooked carrots and a very bitter sauce that overwhelmed the dish. The grilled Badger Flame beets were also undercooked and had an unpleasant flavor. The beet risotto was firm and lacked the creamy consistency you expect from a properly prepared risotto. The halibut tasted overly fishy and seemed undercooked in the center. For $75 per person on Valentine's Day, we expected a polished, thoughtfully executed experience. Instead, the meal felt poorly prepared and not worth the price. It was an unsatisfying way to spend what should have been a special evening. The ambiance was very nice but the rest of the experience left a lot to be desired.
