With that said, I feel very lucky to have this place right next to me. I have a great donut place that doesn't leave me missing all the options I left behind. I found this place early on, and it quickly became cemented into our Saturday morning routine. If I weren't such a shut in, this would easily be my go to place to hang out and relax with a donut and a latte. Super welcoming place you'd be happy to sit down in. These are top tier donuts I'd compare to any other revered place you've been to. I don't normally go for headlights, but here they're my first choice because the frosting is perfect. Even the simple donuts are a straight up euphoric experience. They don't do food outside of donuts and sometimes some other baked goods. Then they have a full coffee/espresso menu. This past summer they started using the location for the Afternoon Scoop, where they're not afraid to combine these donuts with soft serve or Perry's ice cream. And huge bonus points to them for staying open through the winter. It definitely gets expensive coming here. I may just be out of touch with normal prices, but it feels kind of high here, with donuts starting at $2.00 a piece. The only other drawback is that they can sell out any time. Some mornings I show up at 10:00 and there's almost nothing left. If anything, it speaks to the quality of the product, and you can always get around it by showing up early.

During a time when many businesses were just trying to keep the doors open and the lights on this donut shop was born. For many of us we appreciate the fact that we have an alternative to DD. Well here we are a place we can go grab a half dozen donuts and coffee and head to work. Anyone that knows that making donuts is both an art and a passion. Not to borrow from the other aforementioned but there is a reason for the image of "it's time to make the donuts" and early rising of the donut man. The same is true today. It takes dedication and attention to deal. Here the proof is in the first bite. Here I think there is something for everyone from the more standard donut to the more premium. I was delighted when I found they have pistachio flavor for your latte. I've been asking around for the past two years when I first had a pistachio latte in the Adirondacks of all places. Again, it was a nice diverge from the normal and the everyday. I give the new owners and staff props for braving this new economy and hope they continue with what they have going.

This was our first time here after hearing great things about this place and had their sundae special of the day which was banana pudding and included their delicious fresh donuts, fresh banana pudding and vanilla soft serve with whipped cream and fresh bananas! So good! My husband had the king shake which included marshmallow, peanut butter and chocolate sauces and it was yummy as well! They have a large menu with many treats! Can't wait to go back and try out more of their goodies!

Street parking. When I arrived, I was told they did not have the matcha foam anymore for the drink and asked if I wanted something else. I opted for a matcha milk tea and they put in a small icecream scoop of matcha as an apology which was nice. It was odd you could still place the order online when they no longer make the drink. Additionally, I still was charged the price of the matcha floatilla despite a matcha milk tea being $3 cheaper. So that confusion does knock off a star for me. That said, despite being a powdered pre-mix matcha it was strong and of good quality. The boba were chewy and well cooked. The taiyaki was absolutely delicious, buttery, light, and crispy. I would easily reccomend that to anyone.

One wanted peanut butter dip, but they were out, so he settled for his "usual," vanilla soft serve with a cherry dip. Another insisted on the biggest ice cream they offered (because apparently that's a personality trait at 11). He ended up with a banana split in the boat size. Their friend wanted the largest cone on the menu. I ordered him a medium twist instead, and he could barely finish it. As for me, I was deep in decision fatigue. Then I spotted the woman ahead of me with a sundae that let you pick three different flavors. Perfect. The universe had made the decision for me. I went with peanut butter cup sundae with Playdough (bright yellow vanilla ice cream loaded with colorful sugar cookie chunks), vanilla peanut butter twist, and classic cookie dough. The bottom was hiding a bunch of crushed Reese's cups, and of course the sundae was topped with whipped cream and a cherry. Somehow I forgot to take a picture of my treat. Is this a gourmet, artisanal ice cream destination? Nope. Is it exactly what you want when you're on a trip, it's late, everyone needs a sugar fix? Absolutely. It hit the spot!

Not a whole lot to say about the place itself, just a standard ice cream stand with all the staples. Service and price were fine. The only thing out of the ordinary is the soft serve itself. It's gotta be the airiest, most fluffy soft serve I've ever had. It feels like you're eating cool whip. No regrets ordering it, in fact we went back another time when we were in the area. But in general, our allegiance falls on the other end of the soft serve spectrum, so we never made a point to come back.

We love to try out new places so we chose it. No regrets here - first of the product, ice cream was the best I have had to date, really yummy, second very kid friendly place - toys, kid books, little tool set, small picnic table for littles. Owner very pleasant and friendly. Tried to accommodate our picky toddlers and provided them with a ball to play. Such a relaxed environment, it was very easy to enjoy icecream, while our kids played and went back and forth between grabbing a mouthful of icecream and going back to play. Place radiated with positive atmosphere and relaxed demeanor, just loved everything about it. No stress just icecream and fun! If you are in the area give this place a chance. Oh and they offer other treats like chocolate covered strawberries and pretzels, rice crispies and thos place has a promise of smoothies, I am personally looking forward to that too. I had full intention of taking photos of my ice cream and kids having fun but I was too busy enjoying both. I'll have to co.e back with my real camera next time and take photos. You will not regret trying this place out - it's a little gem.
