A hidden gem!

The staff works hard to prevent cross contamination by wiping areas, having a dedicated gluten free area, changing gloves, and having separate boxes for the donuts. Although they’re a bit sweet, I’ll take it! They used to hand frost the donuts which was nice, but I think there was enough demand they started preparing more sooner. (Side tangent the frosting they use on the donut is dairy free which is great for my fellow lactose intolerant folks)

The best part is the price is reasonable! It feels like they don’t punish people for being gluten free which is a nice change of pace.

I just wanted to save anyone who read one of the reviews and thought there were gluten free vegan donuts here. They are not combined but rather just gluten free, the vegan ones contain gluten. So I wasn't able to eat here due to dairy issues, but my mom who is just gluten free got some fresh GF chocolate donuts that look good :) They keep them separate and prep them for you.

The staff is very friendly and kind. They offer gluten free and vegan donuts. I have had the gluten free donut many times and it is wonderful. It is kinda like a little Bundt cake with frosting. I do not think they fully understand cross contamination as the donuts are close to all other donuts and they do not change gloves to grab them. Overall it if you are gluten sensitive like me I recommend trying their gf donut.

They make GF donuts separate, you choose toppings once you’re there. My 10 yr old loves it and never had any issues

They make the gf donuts separately and keep them on the top rack, the owner is very knowledgeable about gluten cross contamination and is always willing to make more gluten free donuts if they’re out of the frosting type you want. Love this place.

Wonderful experience today. We arrived just when they had fresh GF cake donuts coming out of the oven. They have the GF donuts on a top shelf and seem to be aware of CC. All the donuts are cake and they top them with different icing. The maple and chocolate were definite favorites in our family. The service was great, they went above and beyond to make me feel safe!
