Went there at 5:10 on a day they closed at 6. All donuts were cleared from the shelves already. I had gone in the past in the early morning & had a good experience with the donuts. Fresh & a unique flavor. But today I was disappointed that I couldn't get the donuts.
We ordered some coffees to go. The coffee is quite good. I bought the beans to make them at home too. Only down side was not being able to get the donuts.

The doughnuts are giant & so rich in flavour. I chose the salt caramel one & it was glossy & delicious. The coffee & teas were good as well. The atmosphere was a little loud & crowded but that only reflects how good they are.

Relaxed vibe & friendly staff. The glazed donut was crispy on the outside & soft inside. Loved the maple coffee too - smooth & just the right amount of sweetness. Great spot to unwind.

The doughnuts here are really good. They're kind of like a rice dough, soft & chewy with a thin layer of frosting. Best to eat there a of you touch it or if it touches the bag, the frosting rubs off so easily & it's less sweet & less enjoyable. I've come several times. They also have a great ambiance to work, wifi, & good drinks. Service is more on the friendly, casual side.

Nice place, good latte but donut was just horrible - it's so dry & at oily at the same time. & the price is too high for that.
