We just stopped in on the way back from FL to Columbus, OH. How lucky we were to have taken this particular exit, because these are the best donuts I've ever had. Quality ingredients, fluffy, amazing. All other donuts are suddenly terrible.

I have done years of research and can say with confidence- best donuts ever! I lovvvve frosting and being able to pick a flavor and have a treat filled to order is perfection. I will be back! #fgs That they are family owned and local is a cherry on top!

I would rate a 4.5 overall. The doughnuts were light, fluffy and delicious! We had the bear claw, pine cone and a maple long john with chocolate filling. I loved the pine cone! So cinnamon-y and good! The chocolate filling was like a chocolate pudding almost and not frosting-like as I thought it would be and that was the only reason for the slightly lower than 5 review. Sorry, we ate them too fast for pictures. Ha!

kolaches... just gotta love a meat filled donut ;-) and it's way closer to lake norman than the other kolache place which is still way closer than Tejas. and it's not actually a meat filled donut, more of a meat danish except for their Czech-ered origins and Tejano upbringing. Jelly is another giant fluffy donut house in the northern climes with the now standard filling-filler for bun and long-john style pastries along with a variety of breakfast cereal topped offerings but there's some extra fun in the display case that make the journey worthwhiler: besides the aforementioned kolache in regular or spicier they have actual danish!! currently a choice of cheese or cherry + cheese, either way you can't go wrong.

These donuts are hands-down amazing. They make these donuts fresh in House and they are so light and fluffy. They have traditional and fancy flavors. My personal favorite is the chocolate frosted, they will add fresh Boston cream to the inside of it when you order! Is there a big fancy iced coffee here? No. But don't let that tutorial because you will not be disappointed. The donuts here are so much better than the "big box" store. The owners and workers are so nice and so helpful.

Oh my gosh! YUM! New fav donut spot. Fluffy, soft and delicious donuts. You can pick your donut base and then from a list of fillings and they fill it right in front of you. So good. I want to try them all. I tried the toasted coconut, lemon curd & raspberry (which wasn't my fav but I think I was expecting strawberry flavor)

My neighbors rave about this donut shop so it was time to check it out. Come to the counter and you'll see glazed, chocolate covered, sugar, and powdered sugar donuts waiting to be filled. I loved the option of selecting your filling and watching them fill the donut when you order. We tried the Bavarian crème, Apple, Strawberry, and Raspberry fillings - all were good. We didn't try the Danishes but that just gives me another reason to come back for a different treat. For about $2.50 a donut or about 12 for a half dozen you can quickly stop by, customize your donuts and be the family or office hero!
