Something has changed with Gourmet Donuts. Went in with my son today for the first time in almost 3 months. The donuts didn’t taste the same. The staff was wiping their nose and such while handling orders. I was disappointed in the visit. Even my son said his donut was good but something seemed different about it. My coconut donut was salty and just didn’t taste like I remember. I asked the lady if they were under new ownership and she lied and said no.

The staff are really friendly and personable, the shop is small but provides enough dine-in space for multiple families to sit and eat, and the prices are unbeatable! Today I ordered 2 donuts and 2 very large muffins, and even with a tip it came out to less than $10. The same without the tip would come out to roughly $15 at Dunkin, and you wouldn't get the same experience.
Everything is baked fresh every morning and tastes amazing! It's one of my favorite Sunday morning treats and I'll definitely keep going. If you want to support small businesses while also getting friendly service and tasty food at a reasonable price, this...
