Every great local donut shop has to have at least one speciality donut that keeps people coming back. So what is the best kept secret about Donut Prince?? They actually make old school powdered donuts, and they're insanely good!! In fact all of their cake donuts are off-the-charts fresh, light, and incredible. I don't know how they do it, but their powdered donuts actually have a little crispy edge to them that you just have to experience for yourself....SO good!! Their cinnamon cake donuts are equally light and fresh, and are actually sprinkled with fresh cinnamon that you can smell and taste....they are incredible. It's like the Donut Prince took the concept of the old school Hostess powdered and cinnamon cake donuts, and actually turned it into their own masterful proprietary pot of gold!!

If necessary there are also a couple of outdoor tables. It’s a cash only business and they have an ATM near the indoor seating. I recommend the...
Read moreStopped by this morning to try it out. First thing I noticed when I walked in was that the guy at the counter was not wearing a face mask or gloves. As he was preparing the coffee for the person in front of me I noticed him picking his nose briefly and scratching his face, then proceded to ring him up touching the money. As it was my turn to order I watch him closely as he went to the back to grab the stuff to prepare my sandwich. Took him less then a minute to grab the stuff, no way on earth he had the time to washed his hands. When he came back and started to prepare the sandwich I called his attention and ask him politely to stop and if I could get my money back, told him I saw him grabbing money, picking his nose and not washing his hands, he tried to lie and said he did wash his hands, but realize I had been watching him closely, so he ended up refunding me with no...
