“My go to place for donuts the past few years. All the donut variations were excellent.”

“Delicious fresh donuts and one of the best iced Americanos I’ve ever had! Super cute spot.”

“Delicious and fresh! The kids devoured the large chocolate glazed.”

“Delicious! Great assortment of both donuts and coffee. Usually donut places have pretty generic coffee, but this place has a full menu of great coffee. Lots of great donut choices — we had 6 different ones and they were all great.”

“Great donuts. On the same level as The Vault and better than Do-Rite. The real winner was the strawberry rhubarb filled donut. The old fashioned donuts were great too and are usually my favorite. They only have few outdoor seatings.”

“Huge donut person! Firecakes have been a spot I’ve been wanting to try for a while! Walking in we notice no seating inside but definitely outside which is perfect since the weather was nice. Ordered an old fashioned and chocolate glazed donuts. Super soft donuts and would most definitely come back again. They also seem a bit bigger.”

“A cute little donut shop with counter service. We sat outside and have our donuts and coffee.”

“They have good donuts (most important part) and have a constant selection of new seasonal flavors to try out when you go back.”
