In the strip by…read moreMarino's and Jet's, etc. A bit busy parking almost any time; this was a Sunday evening and there were a few spots open. Inside, bright and airy, some comfy seating, easy to get around; staff were super friendly and patient. There was a steady stream of customers but they stayed on top of things. Kid K got the Go Coconuts bowl: coconut sorbet, Nutella drizzle, granola, bananas and berries. All her favorite things. It looked good and she said it was good. And it was big. I got the Island Impact smoothie: papaya juice, pineapple, protein, etc. Smooth and refreshing. And huge- I figured a small would be too small so I got a medium, but dang. An hour later and I've still got a third of it. I was a bit shocked at paying more than $20 for basically a bowl of ice cream and a smoothie, but both were huge, and of course there's a lot of stuff in each. And they were good. I'm sure we'll be back.

Despite my peanut allergy, we decided to have breakfast at Northstar Café during our visit to…read moreColumbus. We started with a Hot Apple Cider, topped with maple-infused whipped cream and cinnamon, along with a couple of hot coffees. The cider was warm, comforting, and full of cozy fall flavors. Unfortunately, the self-serve coffee station wasn't kept stocked, and after waiting quite a while for a refill, we eventually gave up. For breakfast, we ordered two Mushroom Frittatas, a Fresh Buttermilk Biscuit, and a side of Housemade Breakfast Sausage. The Mushroom Frittata featured three hearth-baked eggs with roasted mushrooms, sweet onions, and Gruyère cheese, served alongside breakfast potatoes and a peppery arugula salad. It was flavorful, hearty, and incredibly satisfying. Although I informed the staff about my peanut allergy, I was surprised to find the crispy breakfast potatoes on my plate, which left me uncertain whether the allergy request had been fully communicated to the kitchen. The Fresh Buttermilk Biscuit, served with strawberry preserves, was one of the highlights of the meal. It was flaky, buttery, and wonderfully moist, pairing perfectly with the sweet preserves. The Housemade Breakfast Sausage consisted of two peppery pork patties that were juicy and well-seasoned, making a great accompaniment to the rest of the meal. Overall, we enjoyed a delicious and filling breakfast with fresh, high-quality ingredients. While I wish the coffee station had been monitored more closely and that greater care had been taken regarding my food allergy, the Mushroom Frittata and fresh biscuit alone make Northstar Café worth returning to.

They're definitely bigger than the ones I've had before. There were so many flavors to choose from, including some really yummy and interesting combinations. I prefer donuts that aren't overly sweet, so I was debating between the Nutella and brown sugar. After chatting with the owner, I decided on the brown sugar, and I'm so glad I did! The sweetness wasn't overpowering, and I could really enjoy the crispy exterior and chewy interior. The shop is open late--I actually noticed it last night and wanted to come back during the day to try it. I'm glad I waited because after a full dinner, I ended up devouring the entire donut instead of just having a taste. Now I know exactly where to order from when I need to buy gifts for friends! The owners were very helpful and professional. They made my day!

Easily a 5/5. These donuts were scrumptious!! We got the strawberry matcha, B3 (banana), lychee…read moreraspberry, and ube Vietnamese coffee. I can't say which one was the best because all of them were equally delicious. I'm not a big artificial banana flavor person but the B3 donut really surprised me. Probably the best banana donut I've tasted! The ube coffee smelled pleasant and didn't have an overpowering coffee flavor. So good! Even the matcha donut smelled really nice! I love that they didn't make the icing overly sweet to combat the earthy flavor of matcha powder. All this to say that you can't go wrong with any donut choice. We used the kiosk to order, which was convenient. The interior is cute too - definitely has the color scheme of a donut shop. We signed up for their rewards program because I have a feeling we'll be back fairly often. Lol. I noticed that some of the flavors in-store weren't listed on the website, so even more incentive to check out what new creations they'll have! They're a little more expensive than your typical donut shop, but considering these are mochi donuts with really unique flavors, I think the price is quite fair. Can't wait to go back and try their matcha drinks!
