I was a huge Dunkin' Fan, until the one nearby was serving stale jelly doughnuts. I'm not one particularly sold on a "perfect donut" (I go more for the coffee), so when even I started noticing the hard and dry trend of donuts at Dunkin, it says that something is really afoot in the Dunkin' bakery.
When Daily Donut opened right across the street, I thought it was AWESOME good luck that we finally had a place making fresh (? hopefully!) doughnuts. I was just thinking about how unappetizing the competition was.
Well, it turns out that there's a chef who comes in during the evening and stays up overnight each day making all of the doughnuts fresh that evening for the next morning. And here's the thing: You can tell by the freshness that those doughnuts were JUST MADE. I'm not kidding. The blueberry filled doughnuts are HEAVEN. And if you go buy them all up this weekend before I get there based on this review, you're a jerk. Leave one for the guy who comes in after 10am.
The coffee is on par. It's hot. Neither amazing, and certainly not stale. The prices are right.
The atmosphere is nice. It's clean, plenty of choices and the staff is friendly. I'll be there this weekend.
So remember: leave me a friggin' blueberry-filled donut, you snarfers.
