    I'm glad we tried it out the first day we were at OBX, bc we had the chance to go back every single day we were there. All donuts are fresh and warm! My favorite is chocolate, oreo, coconut ! Try it!

    Best doughnut I've had in a long time. Hot and fresh, you can watch them flip, and they melt in your mouth! Try cinnamon sugar or the maple glaze! Eat up!

    Also not to mention, hopefully next time the cashier will have had his coffee by the time we get there because he was a tad bit grumpy and slightly messed up our order.

    This is a must stop destination. Donuts made to order every time. Hot, fresh, and delicious. For purists, try one plain. You’ll be glad you did.

    Get maple frosting with chopped peanuts. You won't regret stopping here. Go before 1 pm as that is when they close!

    Very good. Peanut butter is great. Glazed could be better. If you don't eat them when you get them, they essentially turn into plain donuts.

    YUMMMMM! Make your own awesome combination or try one of their specialty donuts. Order online to save time, or just wait and mingle.

    The donuts are truly delicious and the maple bacon are a treat. But it seems impossible to get a correct order. 3 of 3 times our order were wrong in some way. The staff is nice though.

    they serve up fresh, cake donuts that are dense but not heavy, and are somehow a little bit crisp. go for the glazed and make sure you order at least a dozen -- they'll be gone before you know it!

    Solid coffee. Didn't try the donuts, but the line out front indicates they got something good going on.

    I'm spoiled with Fractured Prune so I think I might have been expecting too much! Good donuts but not better than Fractured Prune!
