    Protein Waffle
    Ricky P.

    I came here for the first time with my gf. It was great. The customer service was amazing. The lady behind the counter was so friendly and nice. They had lots of great nutritional information on all their items. Which was great. The place was spacious and very well decorated for the holidays. Mix of seating options. Along with some different board game options as well. We ordered açaí, strawberry and bananas bowls, plus shared a protein waffle plate. Then because we were new customers we also got a free cinnamon protein donut. The açaí bowls and waffle were great. Really yummy and full of flavor in every bite. Plus, they were all a great size for the calories. Fruit was crisp and fresh. We loved it and plan to come back when we are in the area.

    I had the pleasure of meeting the owner today! I have been going to this place for a little bit and she was so lovely and we had a nice chat! Me and my boyfriend love going here after working out! I have only ever tried their strawberry banana, protein smoothie and their blueberry protein smoothie, but I always see people getting their donuts and their açai bowls. I am so excited to try more things here and you will not regret giving your support to this amazing business!!

    Love this place. Ambiance is quite cute and relaxing, the customer service was great, and the food delicious. When I said I was looking for something that could be consumed in about two hours post workout, the woman at the counter gave me quite a few suggestions on what the best meal for me could be. She also threw in a protein donut when I said it was my first time, as it was getting near closing and she said they had lots of donuts left that day. Guess what? The meal she suggested--a chocolate protein bowl base with banana, peanut butter, whipped cream and chocolate chips--was absolutely delicious post workout. The donut was great for breakfast the next day. Went back and brought a friend, and this time I met the owner. She was friendly and warm, too. It was nice talking about growing to fit the needs of the community, as the food here is gluten free and diabetic friendly. Looking forward to going back and trying all of the protein bowls!

    I'm so glad I stumbled upon this place! Everything I've had so far has been absolutely delicious. I'm especially a fan of the Prepped Eats Meal Prep--it's so convenient. Keep up the fantastic work!

    After meaning to try this place for ages I finally did it! My teenage football player and I stopped by yesterday for my lunch and his pre workout snack. It's absolutely everything I thought and needed it to be. Tons of options for macro friendly meal replacements, post workout shakes or something extra depending on what you're looking for. Lots of flavors to choose from. Chocolate and delicious? Yep! Fun and fruity? You bet! And what I absolutely love the very most is their customer service. Such a sweet couple working hard to make you smile and make you a sweet treat. Even better when the treat keep you on the path to your protein goals! Looking forward to my next visit already.

    Acai bowl.. the one on the right has peanut butter

    Was in the area because my niece and I were Craving for Acai bowls. Found this place.. Acai bowls are sooooo goood.. staff is really nice!!!

    I always get the Reese's Protein Shake. They have a new menu idea, Churro Protein Cheesecake. I tried the cheesecake today and it was absolutely delicious! I cannot wait to grab some more! This place is a hidden gem. It also tastes way better than Nekter. Low sugar or sweetened with stevia. Their place is spotless. Support family owned and operated businesses!

    Wow! Just wow! Just went in for the first time and the food is incredible! Super nice owners, they were so sweet to talk to and even gave me a free donut to try, protein of course, it was amazing! gluten friendly place too:) 10/10

    Yum! I got the Java chip protein smoothie and it was amazing. Just the right amount of sweetness. I'm excited to go back and try some other items.

    I used to love coming here as it is the closest donut shop to my residence. However, that was…read morebefore it was sold to a business owner who has employed their family in customer service positions and has no desire nor ability to coach their employees to provide better service. The gentleman who is always there seems intoxicated and has no business working in customer service. He says strange things and is extremely forgetful - in fact, the same day I stopped coming here, a man with his family had a confrontation with him. The worker's behavior always very off - not a personality thing, but appears to be a sobriety issue. In the aforementioned man's confrontation, the worker forgot multiple items and wouldn't make it right until the man brought it up, showed his receipt, and made the worker calculate the items which were bought - after the worker gave the man what he was owed, the worker failed to acknowledge their mistake and simply looked at the man with a blank stare. I had a similar issue and called the manager, who wasn't even on site. However, I didn't notice I was missing items until I drove home. The manager wouldn't even say "sorry about that" they simply said they would talk to the staff and that I should go back to pick up the items THEY failed to provide. I went back, and the same gentleman with the inconsistent, non-sober appearing behavior said he didn't hear anything from his manager and I had to call the manager AGAIN. If it isn't the poor behavior from the dude working there, the chick in the back with the sour attitude also fails every box of customer service. I'll never return. This was a great place when the original owner was running the show, now it's just bad.

    Comfy, earthy cafe with plenty of food and drink options!…read more Visited on a Sunday afternoon after taking an exam nearby. Service was friendly and helpful. My order was finished quick. I picked up my drink across where I ordered and then I picked up my food from a separate place when the device they gave me buzzed. What I ordered: * Chia seed pudding $7 - coconut chia seed pudding with coconut flakes, strawberry jam, and granola. Generously stuffed into a round container. Delicious. Inspires me to make chia seed pudding at home. * Hot earl grey creme tea $4 - I added honey. Perfect balance of citrus and black tea flavors. Came in a big paper cup, but had the option of having it in a tea pot and pouring it myself. Note they have a card surcharge of 2.9%. I was able to find a comfy seat with a round table. There were a lot of people but still enough seating and not too loud inside. The music was relaxing. Loved all the natural light and cozy, earthy vibes. For fellow matcha lovers, I saw a sign they use Mizuba matcha. It was already late afternoon and I had a matcha latte earlier so I chose not to get a matcha latte. If I'm around the area and come back soon though, I'd love to try their seasonal summer offering of the coconut matcha cloud. They also had a pastry case next to the register. The savory items sounded great too, so there's lots of items I'm interested in trying from here. Would recommend if you're looking for a nice, spacious cafe to relax or do some work!

    Oh my goodness...I've been craving a delicious Donut...My God doesn't disappointment me...So as I…read morewas driving down Hazel Avenue heading North, I spotted a shop simply named Donuts, well that's what my eye saw. My God wants me to be a little sweeter...so I had to try out the Donut Shop!!! I'm telling you my taste buds and my tummy were singing. These donuts are the freshest most delicious donuts I have encountered in a long time. I was in Heaven biting into the most crunchiest on the outside and so fluffy/moist on the inside Apple Fritter!!!! This sweet little lady really knows how to make a delicious Apple Fritter. I also tried a cake donut with chocolate frosting...also so fresh and moist...I really enjoyed both of my donuts!!! The cup of coffee with half and half I bought to chase my donuts was very fresh and yummy also. Was the best thing I could have chased my donuts with!!! The little lady behind the count was so warm and welcoming. She even laughed at my sense of humor with me as I paid for my delicious donuts. If you're like me and craving a donut and you're in the area...this is the place for you. Well I'd say it's worth the drive to go out your way for this donut spot!!! I'm so grateful My God made me look to the left as I was cruising down Hazel Avenue. Head on over and give them a try. Let me know how much you enjoyed these delicious donuts!!! Maybe I'll see you there, cause I know I will be returning!!!! Sorry no photos I had to walk back to my bus and as I walked I had to bite into my donuts. They were gone before I knew it.

Apparently, a big local event was happening that day & a lot of people had come in earlier. The shop was clean. The floor to ceiling windows made it bright with natural light . There were a few tables for 2-4 people to sit & enjoy treats there. We picked a buttermilk bar with chocolate glaze & a chocolate cake donut with chocolate glaze & coconut. She generously threw in a raised glaze! We also got a mocha. The mocha was just basic. The buttermilk bar had a nice outer crust, a tender inside, & the chocolate wasn't too sweet. Just my kind of donut! Little one said her cake donut was delicious & enjoyed it with enthusiasm. The raised was yeasty & not overly sweet. Overall, tasty traditional donuts & nice service.
