I visited Hammer donuts when I first moved to Lafayette. I had saved it on Google maps and was really looking forward to a visit. Unfortunately, my first visit to the shop didn't go well and the employee was impatient and when asked simple questions about the ingredients and the flavor of the day and when those would be available, he gave curt responses. I thought maybe I had come into the store too close to closing and he was just tired. However, I checked after leaving and there were still a few hours to closing. There were no other customers either. I gave him the benefit of the doubt and made it out to him having a bad day.
If things had gone differently, I might have been a frequent customer but you know what they say about first impressions. I peek into the store to see who is behind the counter before I go in now.

Read moreLittle Shop of Donuts yikes! Thought the place closed cuz they dont have a banner logo. I walked into a store cuz Maps seemed to guide me there. You'll find the donut shop inside Discount Den....in the back! Didnt expect it to be a store in a store. I originally rated it 3 stars for the confusion, until I took a bite of the donut and set me straight! I like cake donuts and their take on cake is new to me. It walked a fine line between a spongy yeast donut and a crumbly cake donut! I loved it. This place is all about the donuts. No ovens, no flour aprons, no bakers. Just a variety of delicious donuts and a door to the donut lab! These treasures are definitly worth the hunt. This donut shop should be on everyones...
