    The storefront
    Hailey R.

    This cute little doughnut shop has always caught my eye but I never stopped... well it's a new year and I decided to change that & I am so happy I did ! The customer service is out of this world !!! This is such a family place where many regulars come and are greeted by name. LOVE IT !! We got a ham and cheese croissant that was delish & a strawberry cruller that made me fall in love with crullers all over again .. even though I only got 1 bite because my 3year old son stole it from me because he loved it if you haven't already came to check them out please come support this mom and pop !!! come bless them and be blessed by the yumminess !!!

    We come in a few times a week since it's on the way to our kids school. Staff is always so sweet and friendly, our kids get lollipops every time we come in! Coffee and ham and cheese croissant are so good! The kids love their donuts! We love coming in and will continue to do so!! Highly recommend!

    Had a 4am craving, these donuts were so good, so fresh, soft! Classic flavors like the chocolate, glazed, sugar, buttermilk, cinnamon. Good chocolate nom nom! Sandwiches aren't on the menu, but he may have ham and cheese croissants on deck, just ask, and he'll also warm it up. They are good too! Good parking, clean donut shop, no homeless around. Owner is very friendly, known in the community, been here for many generations, has seen kids grow up now with their own kids. Mentioned he's also given a complimentary donut to homeless and requested they don't hang out and solicit near their place. Feels nice and safe to get a donut here at 4am when it's dark o'clock. For security purposes he'll lock the door, so just knock! Hours are 4am-2pm, they may occasionally stay open past that. Accepts cash, zelle, Venmo

    Donuts were good but the service stood out. Best service at a donut shop I've ever gotten if not best at any food place. My daughter loved this place. I don't live close I was just in the area, but I will be returning.

    We were getting our tires changed across the street ar Cruz Tire Service and saw a classic donut shop across the street, Amazing service and delicious classic old fashioned donuts! We got the old fashioned cinnamon and sugar and an old fashioned chocolate sprinkle. She gave us extra donut holes to try as samples. Amazing and friendly service, great experience!

    Love this place they have the freshest donuts! The father and the daughter are super nice, and always so friendly. They were to help us out with putting in a last minute BIG donut order for an event I was hosting. We ordered 27 dozen donuts for our donut wall, everyone raved about how fresh, soft and good and tasty. The donuts were. Thank you so much for providing the community with good donuts.

It was like a free art show with a cup of coffee and good vibes! They had art in the front area and the back lounge area! THEY CRANK THAT AC!!! So if you are looking to escape the heat grab a coffee and snack and chill awhile! The staff is sooooo friendly! I'm 99% sure this is family owned and by the looks of it all female owned as well. They take the name to pa'dekwa seriously cuz I felt very very welcomed! Now the coffee! I got the collagen crush!!! And DANG! That drink is super tasty especially knowing there is healthy benefits from it. I took the suggestion from the lady at the register and added a touch of hazelnut to make that "Nutella" flavor (THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTION) Overall I WILL be back! When I'm treating myself to coffee solo or with friends this will be my top spot! I can't wait to "catch" their FISH FRY!! (They try at least once a month)

    Not everyone should sell coffee…read more I am new to this location and wanted to try a new coffee shop which I assume the coffee was going to be good by the ratings that they have by 4.8. So I stopped by to get an ice Americano. The vibe of the coffee shop is very nice. Open layout study rooms perfect if you want to study or if you're going to meet up with friends. The other thing is the barista was very friendly and inviting. I should have known when I asked her if they had ice coffee, she said yes and responded with we can make you an ice Americano, which it's not the same. However, I decided to order an ice Americano. The other thing is I ordered a turkey sandwich which was very good and had a lot of favor. By the time, when my order comes out, I take it to my car and start drinking it, I started sipping my coffee, not realizing that I had coffee grounds inside, I was already late to work, so I did not want to go back or to make any fuss about it. Which couple hours later I just wanted to call the store to ask them if they can remake it or if there's anything that can do, they do not say anything about that and not acknowledge that my coffee was pretty much coffee grounds, and water. Which I was very sympathetic and told them I don't know if they calibrated the machine in the morning because I can in the morning. At the end of the story, she said thank you for letting us that our machine is not calibrated and she said goodbye. I really like this place I like the vibe I like the small family Business own. but if I'm gonna receive a terrible coffee order with a side of terrible customer service it's not worth driving here. At this point, I would rather just go to Starbucks and save myself a couple dollars. I am tired of small little businesses, not taking time and effort to really understand how to make a good cup of coffee. And they be charging a leg and an arm for it. Now that I'm reading the reviews, nobody talks about the coffee here. they talk about the environment and the food, which I do agree the food and the environment is very nice.

We came here around 3 PM on a Thursday to get some work done and our afternoon caffeine re-dose. Service was great!

In December, they have "Christmas" drinks whereas in June, they have "summer"drinks .. it just varies from month to month. Parking is free since it's part of the Bellflower Steelcraft. I feel they make drinks quick, I usually wait less than 5 mins for my drinks. Our usual orders consist of: kids iced mocha, cafe de olla, & the iced cookie butter latte. Oh! Plus you have an option of adding cute art on some of the drinks for a dollar! I've had hello kitty, pochacco, snoopy with a soccer ball & text Mexico

During one visit, requesting a simple sprinkle of cinnamon resulted in an unnecessary comment, after asking for cinnamon on my iced latte, Marcy (a shift supervisor) looked at me with annoyance and said "just to let you know it's hydrophobic so it's not going to mix" On another visit, when I tried to order my usual iced Americano with cold foam, Marcy refused, saying "those are just the rules." Even when I asked to simply purchase a side of cream top instead, she refused to sell it to me--which was baffling, considering other staff members have been making this exact drink for me without issue for the past two weeks. After messaging the owner, he explained that the shop restricts drink modifications to speed up service. However, the obvious miscommunication among staff shouldn't fall on the customer. It was extremely uncomfortable to be shut down and given a hard time by Marcy. While every business has the right to set its menu rules, denying basic customizations and refusing to sell a side of cream top feels overly rigid for a local coffee shop. The strict atmosphere makes for a stressful customer experience.
