If you know me, then you already know my love language is donuts and this place understands me on a…read morespiritual level. The first time I found this spot, I was so obsessed I was literally coming here every single day (no shame at all). The donuts are always fresh, beautifully made and dangerously delicious. Every visit tastes just as amazing as the last, which says a lot because consistency is everything. Beyond the donuts, the customer service is always phenomenal and the prices are surprisingly reasonable for the quality you're getting. At this point, it's become a tradition anytime I'm heading to visit family in Florida, I have to stop here and grab a dozen to bring with me. Safe to say these donuts now have fans in multiple states. Highly recommend if you're looking for a treat that's worth every bite.

The building…read morelooked so new inside and out I thought maybe they relocated from another spot, but no, just updated the bldg. I think I caught them a a lull coz I was the only one there. It have me a chance to chat with the owner or mgr, not sure which, but either way, nice guy. They have a pizza joint next door that's open in the evening. I'm not really into biscuits so had a bacon, egg and cheese on potato bread. I was surprised that it was a half sandwich, but Bread Shop bread is so big I guess that's why. It was very tasty, although would have liked the bread a bit more toasted. They make their own pepper jelly on site so had that on the bread. It's not too spicy, but does have a bit of a zing. What I didn't use I brought home. If I'm in the area again I'd def give lunch a try.

Fantastic soft serve! They do 1-2 flavors a week and make both vegan and non vegan versions. This…read moreweek they had fig and maple, which I got swirled in a cup and thoroughly enjoyed. Prices are reasonable; I spent less than $6 for a healthy serving of ice cream. Service was quick, no complaints there, snf you can even buy fresh produce. The location is so idyllic; while it is a bit north of Hillsborough, it's so worth the drive. You can go onto the farm and see what they are growing and hang around the animals. Overall, such a worthwhile experience and I will be making the drive out again!

Flavors change weekly. I especially like their salted chocolate flavor. Swirled is popular too. You get two flavors in a cup or cone with swirled. In the summer they have raspberry and blueberry. Yum. You can also purchase and take home some veggies to cook up at home for dinner. Adorable spot!

This is a serve yourself, clear the table like a McDonalds. Requesting a tip upfront before receiving pizza and being self serving restaurant I found this over and above. Someone brings pizza to table when cooked. Otherwise it's on you. I spoke with the cashier about this and he said it was the owners thing. Seems like money grabbing to me to pay the bills. I think this will chill more customers than is worth it. Maybe not, maybe just me‍

Food and Drink: Mannnnn it has been over a decade since I had last this place and it brought back…read moreso many memories of my time in Mebane!! For dinner, I had the Johnson Club, onion rings, and sweet tea. The club was and still is one of the best club sandwiches I've ever had. The amount of protein is plentiful, and the addition of the egg puts this over the top. The restaurant is a bakery so the bread used for the sub is soft and fresh. The onion rings were hot, had the perfect amount of crisp and they were not soggy like other places I've been to. Overall, I left with nostalgia and I am definitely looking forward to coming back! Customer Service: Upon arrival, the waitresses welcomed me in and invited me to sit anywhere. I was promptly tended to and my waitress was soooooo friendly!!! It's the southern charm and politeness I miss the most about North Carolina and neighboring areas. Already knowing the sandwich I wanted, I took her advice between the fries and onion rings and she didn't steer me wrong! I appreciate her work ethic and making sure that everyone in the dining room had what they needed and helping a few others (some first timers!) decide on what they wanted. Ambiance: This place is casual, and intimate in a way. It's not a huge space but it's big enough for multiple groups to enjoy lunch or small families to have a sit-in dinner. I highly recommend this place as a stop on any commute between Charlotte and the Research Triangle Area.

I had the opportunity to sample a few of Kim's baked goods (bacon cheddar scone, apple scone, apple…read morecider donut, blueberry donut, and a cinnamon iced donut) today and feel very moved to write a review. They are DELICIOUS. Fresh, right balance of sweet but not too sweet. I normally can say no to a donut if I see one, but I will never say no to anything that comes from her shop. I strongly recommend going!! (I should have taken a before pic of the items sorry. Bacon cheddar scone not picture because shared with friends and it's already gone hahah. But all are so so good)

Katelyn's cake is so moist and fluffy! She was very responsive and helpful throughout the planning process. She made sure that our cake fit within our budget, and she advised on the decorative aspects. In the end, we decided on a 4-tier cake with 2 tiers of marble/chocolate buttercream, 1 tier of apple/apple cinnamon buttercream, and 1 tier of spice/cinnamon buttercream. We bought our own pressed autumn leaves, which Katelyn arranged beautifully on the cake the day of the wedding. We were very happy with the presentation, and every slice was delicious. We plan to use her again for birthdays, because this is now our favorite cake in the area!

We stopped by the bakery on our way home from Winston Salem and met the delightful mom of the baker herself. One thing I really like is there's not a TON of frosting on the cupcakes, but more of a reasonable amount, just like Mama used to make. Everything looked wonderful so we placed an order for 3 dozen mini cupcakes and they Delivered them!! They were an absolute hit at the party & one guest, who normally is very careful about what she eats, had six mini cupcakes!! Everyone loved them and wanted to know where we got them and all the details. The frosting on the carrot cakes is cream cheese and was divine! The lemon was everyone's favorite and the snicker doodle with chocolate fudge icing was to die for! I'd give them 10 stars if I could!!

I arrived 35 minutes before their posted closing time (10 PM), only to be turned away at the window and told they were closed. If the actual closing time is earlier--like 9:25 PM--that should be accurately reflected online. The ice cream itself is consistently good when you're getting it straight from the bucket, but the selection is often very limited. More than once, I've found that machines were down or certain options weren't available. On one occasion, they handed me a broken cone without offering to fix it or replace it. I genuinely hope they can tighten up operations and update their hours, because the product has potential--but the overall experience needs improvement.
