I love that they will have donuts to fill with vanilla cream or jelly. Often the donuts are freshly made- those are so good. The vibe in the place is really nice.

The donuts were ok, I wouldn't say any better than average I had a jalapeño pig in a blanket which would have been very good except that it wasn't very warm. The person serving us wasn't very friendly and the place is pretty worn down; however it is a drive through so that's good. I don't think I would go out of my way again to go there.

My wife's only remark was she wished their apple fritter was just a little bit more apple infused. Otherwise, it was a knock out. The donuts are thick and fluffy like a true donut should be. We enjoyed the cinnamon roll latte, a sweet and delectable latte. The person at the front counter was very kind and patient with us as we took forever to make up our mind with what we wanted.

Damn good bagels!!!…read more Super cute little place with a good amount of seating inside and out. Very clean and bright. Friendly and helpful staff. I've been there three times and tried something different each stop. First up was the magical chicken salad on an everything bagel. Delicious chicken salad with lots of good flavors that didn't overpower each other. Second was the Steak sandwich on rosemary bagel. Not a fan of the steak. Nothing wrong with it, just a personal preference thing but that rosemary bagel was so good. Third trip was the one I will be going back for. The Pastrami Reuben. They recommend getting it on the pumpernickel bagel, but I couldn't pass up that rosemary bagel again, and it made a great pairing in my opinion. Whatever that Potchke sauce is, it really made the sandwich. But as you can imagine, the bagels were the star of the show each time. Nice size with just the right amount of seasonings. The first bite said it just right... perfect thin crackly bite on the outside with nice chewy dense inside, and so flavorful. I've heard that it can be quite crowded during the typical times you would visit a bagel shop so I went "off peak hours". The first time there were probably 10 people in line in front of me, the second time five or six and the third time I walked straight up to the counter. All three times my sandwich came out within just a few minutes of ordering so I would say they are definitely doing something right behind the counter. Only got one photo on my first visit. Was to excited to eat them to remember to take photos on next visits.

I usually save my bagels for NY, but had to try this place from all the type. Came here during…read morelunch on a Thursday and there was no line. I ordered the jalepeno cheddar bagel with pastrami flavored lox schmear. I don't think there's any pastrami in this but interesting name. The bagel is light and fluffier than the dense and chewy NYC bagels and the schmear was salty and flavorful. Overall, I would recommend this place for top bagels in Knox. I would not put it up against an NYC bagels, but so glad we have a great option for yummy bagels and schmears. The bagels are big enough to share and they come toasted, cut in half and schmeared on both sides! Saving the second half for my afternoon snack!

I needed a minute to check the menu out and decided on two sausage egg and cheese bagels, one on Asiago and the other on an Everything. The came up super fast and smelled delicious. I had gotten them to go so the car ride was filled with temptation to chow down on these delicious smelling breakfast sandwiches. Digging into one when I got home made it worth the wait. The bagel itself had great flavor and a nice chew to it and the sausage egg and cheese is just classic. I really liked the everything bagel, I didn't try the other one because it wasn't for me but my husband really liked it. I will definitely be back. The bagels were great and the price of the breakfast sandwiches wasn't bad at all.

Clearly I was late to the party and the early birds knew what was up. Respect. Did we panic? Absolutely not. We pivoted like seasoned donut professionals and started with two dozen glazed holes. That's right. TWO. DOZEN. Most didn't make it home. "We'll just have one" turned into "wait, how many are left?" Then came the full dozen assortment: *Custard filled - dangerously good *Cream filled - no regrets *Chocolate cake - classic, solid, dependable *Glazed - because you can't not And then... the Strawberry Glazed Let me tell you about that Strawberry Glazed. BAM. Sooooo good. Like, pause-the-conversation good. Like, "why did we only get one?" good. They also have breakfast sandwiches if you're pretending to be responsible. Plenty of seating inside, so you can sit there and question your life choices while eating donut number four. The service was friendly, quick, and didn't judge our order size (at least not out loud). If you live nearby, what are you waiting for? If you don't live nearby, it's worth the drive. Just apparently get there before 9:13 if you want Chocolate Holes. Learn from my mistakes.
