    Came a little later in the day and so many flavors were sold out already. That's when you know it's goood! The service was so friendly and nice. I got the blueberry filled, twist and the chocolate frosted. These donuts were so good and fresh! The twist was the perfect bite! It was so soft and not super dense. The blueberry frosted was definitely my favorite! The blueberry frosting was so fresh and has lots of blueberries inside and it was not too sweet. There was so much filling too. The chocolate frosted was really good as well. Definitely will be back to try the other flavors. A must visit to this mom and pop shop! Will want to try the subs as well.

    With the additional three dollars for some munchkins that were mostly air the total bill here was $20

    I'm sorry, I will not be returning. The donuts are old and are dried out. I was really looking forward to the cinnamon twist for my wife cause that was her favorite but When I looked at it, it was half the size of what it used to be. I am looking for the owners. They are not there. I'm asking. Do these people even have a business license and a health license that is current because the the aftertaste of old grease in the blueberry donut and the others as well should not be there it tastes rancid. I finally got out of the lady behind the counter that the owners sold the business five months ago to her and the other young lady and it looks like they did not speak much of any English, besides the fact that this is not an even exchange of money for food.

    Mom and pop donuts and famous apple fritters. The food lived up to its recommendation. We were happy to try a new place a little out of the way. We will stop here again. The sub sandwiches are pretty good too.

    I was in the area and wanted to try something that I could not try on my side of town. After a little research I opted for something that I would not ordinarily go for. What I mean by that is that it was clear that this place is no frills. I walked in and there was only one patron in the shop on a Friday afternoon. Given the great reviews I really anticipated a larger crowd. As I noted above, this place is no frills. It honestly appears that the owners may occasionally live out of the place. It's filled with what I would call house plants. I even saw what I imagine is their mode of transportation to work every day- bikes! I wanted to try a sub and donuts. I figured it would not be a place I would be back to anytime soon given it's proximity to my side of town. I ordered a sub and two donuts. The sun was decent. Nothing to write home about. The donuts- I did not care for. They honestly tasted stale and just not good. If I were in the area and need a basic meal I guess I would come in for a sub. I do feel like I am being generous with my average rating.

    The 5 stars are for the donuts. The subs are fine. Go early so you have a lot of donuts to pick from! They don't take American Express. My favorite donuts: Butter Milk, Blueberry Cake, Apple Cinnamon (with apple pie-like filling), Sour Cream, Honey Dip, Solid Chocolate. As far as their subs, they don't have very many toppings. They have: lettuce, tomato, and onion. They have mayonnaise, mustard, and Italian dressing. They have a variety of meat. I only had turkey, but it was really good. A 7-inch turkey sub is $5.19. Not bad! I'll definitely keep going back for the donuts!

    I just saw a post from someone from 3 hours ago that gave this gem a negative review. They mentioned the donuts being dry and not fresh! I am so confused because I purchased a dozen of the best donuts an hour ago. This place has always been consistently amazing and fresh. The donuts don't stick around long enough to be stale. I thank the ladies who are working so hard to deliver an amazing treat. Great way to start my Saturday!

    I went here around 12:39 and got the turkey sandwich. I wanted to get a donut, but unfortunately there weren't many lady. I don't know if they're just that good and sold by that time or if that was all that was made. *the turkey sandwich had all the great stuff in in (lettuce, tomato, mayo, mustard) but it was very dry. They do add little mustard and mayo and I asked for more but they don't do packets.. maybe I should have asked for it in a container, but I didn't think that far ahead, so when it was eating it, I didn't enjoy it because of how dry it was. But the produce itself was really good! I dont know if I'd go back. COVID friendly for those who are still wearing masks.

    I rated both of the businesses, run by the same couple, an overall 4 stars. R and I came here for lunch the other day. Parking in the free parking lot was readily available. It's shared by the other neighboring businesses in a very small strip mall. Entering the store/restaurant, it looks like a donut shop and kitchen were built at the back of someone's large sunroom that has a big collection of various sizes of potted plants against the front windows. The roomy (but mostly blocked off from seating) dining area takes up the front half of the store. Farther back is the donut shop on the left, and the non-donut part of the store is on the right. Customers need to order on the respective sides; however, the Point of Sale is on the donut shop side. The woman employee was very nice, quick and efficient. She also brought our food to our table soon after we had ordered at the counter. The menu features sandwiches (subs), hot dogs, salads, chips, canned and bottled drinks - all on the right side of the store. The donut shop features a good variety of deliciousness, such as donuts (of course!), bagels, cinnamon rolls, apple fritters, croissants, and other items. What caught my eye on the menu was the cost of a dozen filled donuts: $12.49. Huh? I'll be back in the future for those. R and I ordered The Italian subs, which is described on the menu as "Italian Meats and Cheese." On my sub, I got everything possible on it, per the menu - lettuce, tomato, onion, mustard, mayo, and "our secret Italian dressing." So, I wasn't sure exactly which meats and cheese I had ordered, but it was good, and, at $5.19, it was certainly a bargain. There was a nice amount of meats and cheese, and everything else, in the sandwich. Was it the best tasting? No. But at that price point, I really couldn't complain. I went to the donut side to pay for our subs before another employee made them, and, seeing the donuts just sitting there in the racks, couldn't help but buy one for each of us: Boston Cream for me and an old fashioned glazed for R - to go. We ate them later, and we both agreed that the donuts were great (and at great individual prices). I'm pretty sure that I'll be back to get a dozen sometime. I'll have to remember that they don't accept AmEx cards. Two 7" subs, a can of Coke, a bottle of water, a small bag of chips, a Boston Cream donut and an old fashioned glazed donut, and I walked away from the cash register after paying $16.92, including tip. How was that possible? No complaints about the service, food or price!

    Separate counters for donuts and subs ($7 and change for a combo). They prefer cash, $0.50 upcharge for cards.

    Not sure what all the hype is for this place. The owners seem really nice, and the donuts were good, but the food was just ok.

    I love this place a lot. They have a very tasty menu. My favorite donut is the Maple Sea Salt but…read morethe bread pudding donut is dense and delicious. This location is in the Summerville area which is heavily changing. There's a new Publix across the street and many new things withing walking distance. They have an outdoor patio behind Pete's Hotdogs but also some cozy inside seating if you like the old hamburger shop with countertop service. Their burgers are worth noting as well as their breakfast sandwiches. They add a bit of their own flare with a pepper jam on their breakfast sandwiches, which if you're into putting jam on your breakfast biscuits, that might interest you a bit. I'm not big into that, and I still enjoy it. The burgers and chicken sandwiches are also using fresh buns with fresh ingredients which you can't really find a lot of places in the city making their own buns. Most will use Martins, which i'm not complaining about those, but to find a fresh made bun hamburger in these times is amazing. As I'm finishing up this review, I'm reminding myself I need to go here more often.

    They make HANDS DOWN the BEST sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich that I have EVER had the…read morepleasure of having! The sesame seed bun seems to be made from scratch, and is crusty on the outside and chewy and fluffy on the inside. The pork sausage patty is moist, tasty, and juicy without falling apart, and very well seasoned. The egg was fried to perfection, and although there was a bit of runny yolk, it was not so much that it soaked the bun or made the sandwich needlessly messy. The sweet and tangy Hero Pepper Jelly is the perfect foil to the fried egg, cheese, and sausage, and for lovers of all things sweet and salty (such as myself), it amplifies the flavors of this sandwich to the next level. AND I had this delivered by Uber Eats, and it arrived late, but it still tasted ridiculously yummy, so I can't even imagine how good their food is in person!
