The flavors are always on point, and the quality never disappoints. The staff has always been very friendly and welcoming. The only thing I've noticed is that the pizza sizes have gotten a bit smaller, but the prices are still very reasonable. Each pizza is definitely perfect for one person.

Sam's Fresh Donuts is hands down one of the best spots for donuts! The donuts are always super fresh, soft, and perfectly sweet without being overwhelming. You can really taste the quality in every bite. They have a great variety of flavors, and everything I've tried has been amazing. The shop is always clean, and the service is friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. It's the kind of place you look forward to coming back to again and again. If you're craving donuts, Sam's is definitely the spot to go! read more

Clever, killer donuts! This place pleased me--a doughnut fan--and my friend, who is not a doughnut fan.

It's also a fairly small operation; so while you won't find a massive case with rows upon rows of every donut flavor like you might at some larger shops, from what I sampled, everything they have in their case is super fresh. Every donut we ordered was so so so delicious! The sugar twist, glazed donuts, and donut holes we got were all so soft and airy-- like biting into a perfect, sugary dough cloud! The apple fritter had a substantial amount of apple cubes in it, tasting almost like an apple pie in donut form! The cream cheese croissant was like a cheese danish but inside a fluffy croissant! On top of the deliciousness, the woman there was very kind and cheerful. I will definitely be stopping in again soon to try out more options!
