| - The hype is worth it. I'd give Brewnuts a dozen stars if I could.
Prior to the opening of this storefront, I'd only had Brewnuts at Rising Star in Hingetown, but was a Brewnuts Backer on Kickstarter. Now that the new store is open, I've been twice and these treats are probably my favorite indulgence.
Why? A few reasons. The first are the flavor profiles. While I don't *adore* every single flavor, they are all good and there are some that have just been incredible. Coffee and toffee? Yes, please. Pistachio fry cake? Yup. Cannoli? Are you kidding me? Delicious. Blood orange, autumn spice, even the glazed is great.
Second, these donuts are serious business. They're large and fluffy (or crispy depending on the variety) and totally worth the $3 price tag.
Third...the owners are the best and exemplify everything I love about Cleveland and its homegrown all-stars. I've been in touch with Shelley a few times over Facebook and she's a peach. On my first visit, she popped over to say hello and to see how we liked our dones. In the midst of craziness, she took the time to make a real connection with a customer, and that speaks volumes to me.
One last note: on my first visit, two parents came to enjoy dones with their kids...and both the mom and dad were having a Sunday morning beer. Parenting done right, folks.
Be sure to check out this place!
