Don't waste your time at ANY of the other shops in town. this place is the best (if you can catch them when they're open LOL)! They're local, they make everything fresh daily, and they're family owned.
They will ruin donuts for you. You will only want to buy them from these guys for the rest of your life.

Good God Almighty! Make a stop here.
Just be warned: it's a small place and it fills up fast. They also close at some weird random time (and I forget what it is, so make sure to Google it).

Paul and Shawna will forever continue to argue about this one.
Paul likes it, but thinks they're over-priced. Shawna doesn't like it and gets social anxiety from the massive amount of people stuffed into the restaurant. She does NOT think it's worth putting it on the to-do list.
