    Strawberry filled
    Jing K.

    A great donut shop in Manchester VT. So many delicious varieties to choose from. Must stop of you're passing through. We came by early afternoon and the nice lady at the counter asked my kids what was their favorite flavor. She proceeded to go to the back and make a batch of freshly filled strawberry donuts topped with strawberry cream that wasn't even on the menu.

    These donuts are some of the best I've had--anywhere. They're huge (big enough to split), super fresh, and tasty. Cinnamon, chocolate, and raspberry were all amazing. Note: they're closed on Mondays.

    I struggle with my rating but wanted to keep it honest. First let me start with the donuts. We had a red raspberry filled and a blueberry. Both delish. We also had egg sandwiches. Here's where the issues came. Friend #1 sandwich came not on the croissant she ordered. Friend #2 sandwich was missing the potato patty. And mine came on an English muffin rather than toast. We brought 2 of 3 issues to their attention and they did fix right away. The sandwiches once fixed were good however. I would give them a second chance if I was local.

    I was visiting Manchester for the day and we drove past this store and I had to double back to try it. I love donuts and everything I've eaten in Manchester thus far was amazing, so I had no doubt this spot would be good. When you enter you're met with a display of a gorgeous array of donuts that are nice in size. I was surprised to find out they're all like $2 and some change (I'm coming from a city where donuts typically go for about $5+ and they're much smaller). The donuts were nice and soft and not overly sweet at all which were right up our alley. They also have other baked goods like cinnamon rolls (which were massive), muffins, and pies. We initially were only going to order half a dozen donuts but somehow we ended up ordering 12...no regrets though. The staff was so sweet and inviting, we didn't mind buying more. They also have sandwiches, and we ordered a couple of those, they were super tasty and very fresh. The only thing is that there were quite a few bees by the window inside the shop, making them quite close to the donuts and other baked goods. Even though they were chilling, bees still scare me so I kept my distance. All in all next time I'm in Manchester I would absolutely visit here again, and recommend anyone else to do the same!

    5 stars for their friendliness and stellar service. The great donuts also help too. My family was dropping in after seeing their sign and each of us were choosing a donut. My youngest didn't want to pick one cuz she noticed there was no strawberry donut on display. The kind worker (who I think was one of the owners) asked if she could make a donut for her- what would it be? My kid immediately brightened and said strawberry please. She went in the back and made a giant donut filled with strawberry jam and topped with strawberry whipped cream. She really went above and beyond to make our day. My kid gobbled up the donut so I'm assuming it was delicious. If you are in the area please stop by. It's a cute old school donut shop.

    If you're looking for cold burned breakfast sandwiches then this is the place for you, and as a bonus you get to wait 30 min for them.

    The maple cream (like a Boston Crème but with maple frosting) was an incredible donut - sweet, fluffy and delicious.

    I caught this place on my way out of Greenfield and boy am I glad I stopped. These are easily the…read morebest donuts I've had in this state. I bought about 7 to try. I started with the cruller on the drive which was excellent, crispy on the edges, just the right amount of sweet. I brought the rest (strawberry sprinkle, apple cider, glazed) home for the family to try and each one was distinct and well made. You can tell these are freshly made each day. I picked up around noon (they close at 12:30) and then I feel like I got the first batch from the top of the morning. Please give this small local business a try when you're in the Greenfield area.

It's such a cute little place with friendly staff. Donuts that are airy, soft, not too sweet, large, priced reasonably, and honestly just *perfect* are what you'll find here. The chocolate frosted actually tastes like chocolate, the cinnamon roll is enormous and honestly why keep reading when you could be eating the best donuts in New England (I said what I said)? I live 45 mins away and will be frequenting often! I can't emphasize how incredible these donuts are!! I am going to inhale this dozen in a day at this rate. I only wish it were open later hours, highly highly recommend!

    Time for another review. The creemees are a bit larger than last year it seems, and the prices are…read morestill super-reasonable. No surprises at the Sugar Shack, a delightful trip through rural NY and South-Western Vermont, albeit 40 plus miles one way for us. Been there perhaps a dozen times since 2024, still have found nothing that would make me even think about a rating less than 5 stars. I am a picky, demanding, relatively hard to please customer. I believe that the key to running a business is consistency. Run whatever kind of business you want to run but be consistent. The customer has a right to know what to expect next time, after his first visit . Any business can hit it just right and deliver a world class experience once; the key to a steady 5 star rating is to deliver that time and time again. Sugar Shack does exactly that. Their creemees are, quite simply put, perfect. First time, third time, eighth time, twelfth time. Never varying in intense maple flavor that tastes just like syrup right out of the jug. Never poor consistency. Always, always, thick and creamy and substantial. I did notice one difference late last summer; the size of the large cones increased a bit with no corresponding price increase. Prices for the creemees are super reasonable. Five of us went there the other day and the bill was pennies over $20. Two larges, 3 smalls. For a premium quality cone filled with plenty of ice cream, being sold in a touristy area, that is phenomenal. Don't like ice cream? What the heck is wrong with you???? :) Nevertheless, their apple cider donuts, especially the cinnamon coated version, are really good. Always fresh, and much less greasy than the genre is known for. Not heartburn, no disgusting grease soaked bag on the way home, just plain great flavor and freshness. Time for a bit of a ramble. These people, and their business, are real. The two young ladies that run the store are charming and efficient. They are nice to customers because they are nice people, not because there is a tip jar on the counter. I have been on enough cruises and eaten in enough restaurants in my 76 years to have developed a pretty accurate sense of someone being phony because they are in a tipped position, and being blunt, this ain't that. It would seem that the key to the Sugar Shack for me is the realness, the staff, the creemees. Somehow though there is more. They have a wonderful tree shaded side yard with old fashioned picnic tables. Those tables outside, so unassuming, so very not fancy, so utterly 'country', just fit perfectly with the trees and the overall rural ambiance. Going there is relaxing and brings me back to being a much much younger version of myself. Born and raised in NYC, at 14 the family moved to a town in Upstate NY with a population of 1200. Sugar Shack brings back memories of little roadside ice cream places and snack bars and a slower, more peaceful, just plain better time. The owner and her staff (relatives if I understand correctly) are providing a lot more than ice cream and maple syrup and assorted delicious premium treats and foodstuffs. They are bringing us back in time to when business was interactions between people, not transactions with a multi-national corporation. Well done, ladies, well done.

    Their maple creemees are sooooo delicious! Cold, creamy, and the perfect maple flavor!! The cider…read moredonuts are also delicious. If you want a taste of both, you can order the "cider sammich", which is the homemade hot cider donut sliced in half and filled with and topped with the maple creemee!! Plus, they offer gluten free cones, no extra charge, and their prices are very reasonable!! They even offer a baby cone, but I guarantee if you get one of these, you'll go back in for a second! We make sure to visit for a maple creemee every fall! It's also a little gift shop with maple syrup and other fun things to look at or buy! So much fun!

The blueberry's were past but the bushes looked great! What was perfect on a colder fall day was a warm apple cider donuts..probably one of the best I have ever had ...and some cold apple cider. Just off the highway, ads it to your fall list.

    How can it be that I've never reviewed Green Mountain Orchards on Yelp?…read moreThis is the best place for pick-your-own. Beautiful fruit, beautifully maintained property. Well organized, easy to get in/out, minimal need for walking, and very little mud on one's feet. We pick blueberries each summer, multiple times per season. We have picked peaches in summer 1-2 times, and have picked apples in the fall a few times. Each time it's a great experience. The apple picking gets crowded, but never crazy. We've never had an experience where we were sent to pick in a section that had been picked over and had little fruit. Each time it's a great experience, both for adults and children. Well organized traffic, parking, checkout, bags/buckets. I can't recall a time I felt like things were crazy or disorganized. Prices are fair. The big bonus of course are the treats that they bake up: apple cider doughnuts, pastries, everything I've ever had has been amazing. Makes me want to move in and work there, it's just so wonderful. Highest recommendation!
