| - This is one of those businesses that I've been meaning to review for awhile, but whose products I felt that I needed to sample again to evaluate fairly. Yesterday, someone brought a dozen into lab meeting, providing me with just such an opportunity.
I sampled two donuts, an oreo one and the infamous maple bacon frosted one. The donut itself was of the cake variety, and was slightly crunchy on the exterior. Alone, it wouldn't be very interesting, but the toppings and fillings are what make the donuts here interesting. The frosting on both the oreo and maple bacon donuts was tasty, with the maple bacon being the more interesting of the two. The bacon on it consisted of small pieces of real bacon (not bacon bits), whose smokiness and savoriness was complemented by the sweetness of the maple frosting. If you enjoy unique flavors, it's definitely worth trying!
It's difficult to recall the types of donuts I've tried in the past, but I believe I've tried a chocolate variety and a lemon-filled one, and was favorably impressed by both (though I can't recall specifics since it's been over a year). When I've bought donuts, service has generally been friendly and prompt. My one criticism is that prices are a bit on the high side, as others have noted. However, the donuts are more interesting than Dunkin', and their small size is useful for portion control, so I'd recommend giving them a try!
