This is a review of my experience only. Here we go. You know that line starts off not good.

AH is listed online as a place to get cider donuts. Looked quickly online, saw curated photos of BBQ, donuts, canned goods… all the typical Nice things. Wasn’t sure what exactly the place was, it's not clearly on the homepage; my only expectations were something “country” like, sample food from a different place, and an excuse to get out of town.

Well, that is where I *up and didn’t do my research. SMH.

Arrived to find one of those road-side places. Barely off the intersection and a Sheetz... oh, big country vibes, ha. Dang near passed it, if I hadn’t been looking where all the traffic circus was.

Tires hit the dirt lot and it was immediately fighting for what little cockeyed parking exists. Props to the aHole starring in 1 car, 2 spaces.

I followed strangers all the way around to the front door. Always enjoyable being part of the flock. Barely got inside. Bam! Waiting line. One that doesn’t ever move. Found myself trapped between people, “stuff” for sale, and a one-way only or we'll send Karen after you door (total fire hazard).

I never saw where the line actually went. Couldn’t. Too dark inside, and too many maze walls and racks of “stuff”. I think Jareth was watching somewhere.

After being trapped awhile, I gave-up waiting. Broke the line to see what “stuff” has been for sale. Def not those curated pictures of country goods (mixed in somewhere). More like 10lbs of flea-market Amazon grade Crack-Barrel theme shoved in a 5’ space. Dang near hoarder style. Reminded of me many places I’ve been too, same ole’ Americana, but those places had interesting useless stuff for sale.

Snaked my way around, into a bar. Open tables, people sitting around, looking like they had been waiting a lot more than awhile. No food, no drinks, no bartender. Just unhappy looking people. Trapped between their table and a pending bank transaction for food.

Shimmied back out. Found the one-way-exit-only door. Exactly... one way in, and one way out. Even more people going in. Passed a closed-off little outdoor seating area- more people looking like they’ve been waiting unhappily too long.

Well, I don’t know if was all late-blooming tourist coming through to look at dead leaves, or just the local’s time… but how ridiculous. It * me off to drive an hour for something simple, only to find a mis-represented disappointment. Wasted my time. Wasted my gas. And I still had to drive another half-hour to get some Q.

I def don’t want to hear some boiler-plate owner’s response. “Blah blah blah. This happened, not normal. Been doing this since ’63 (I can tell, and no excuses). Blah blah.” Honestly, don't answer. Enough of my time was already wasted. It always BS with every business on Google.

I’m *generally willing to give a place an actual chance, especially if there were atypical circumstances like a moment of seasonal tourism; and follow-up with a review edit. But I don’t know about this one. All the callings of don’t even bother.

So again, only my experience- great for you dear reader if you were here and had good food and service. Congrats. That’s not how it went for my family, and that is what I have to base my review on. But thanks for sticking to the end of this.
