| - I wanted to love them so much! I'm originally from Southern California, so I have been spoiled with some pretty awesome donuts in my lifetime. Since moving to Arizona only 1 donut place had wowed me but it's clear up in North Phoenix and would take me an hour to get there with no traffic. So imagine my excitement of learning that there would be a new donut shop near me. I have to say, their pre-opening social media work was nothing short of Amazing! I followed, liked, shared, and then showed up.
So in the idea of fair reviews here we go:
The place is super clean, fun atmosphere and pleasing to the eyes. It has lots of room and tables to stay there and enjoy your donuts at a table.
They have no descriptions of what the donut actually is, only a placard with the name. So you have to ask about most of them. This, with one 70 varietals, makes the lines go slow.
Everytime that I asked, the girl that helped me had to ask someone else. That conversation went like this., "what is the Jesus (Jeezus)?" "Oooh you mean the Jesus (Hayzus) I dont know, let me ask." ...asks guy next to her... Guy replies, "It's a churro flavor" then girl says to me, "it tastes like a cheerio" WTF? I mean common lady, PRODUCT KNOWLEDGE!!!
My second biggest issue was that when I asked for a paper receipt I was told they had no way of giving me one. So, there went my reimbursement for work! **That's actually a big deal!!!
All in all I ordered 6, to taste each one with my coworker. Apple pie, Key Lime Pie, Lemon, old fasioned, maple long John, and the nutella. ((Not the cheerio)). They all tasted the same except for the inner filling. All the cakes were the same, they were overly sweet, the sweet ones made the old fashion even take on the flavor after being in the same box. Honestly, it tastes like someone put the same frosting on each one but colored it differently.
Anyway, I came, I tried, I wanted this to be my new favorite donut. Sadly I won't be back
