Always a treat! About $2-3 per donut, but you're very likely to be very satisfied with whatever you choose. Their flavors range from classic to more complex. The complex flavors usually build on a traditional glaze or filling,such as maple or jam, and add a couple more complementary ingredients. The dough, fillings, and glazes are all high quality, rich, and taste ✨ artisanal ✨ in the right way. The Bernie is a personal favorite, and I usually don't like maple that much. They also serve coffee and espresso drinks, which get a thumbs up from my coffee lover friend. In short, give Donut Savant a try-- and get hooked.

Omg. I bought 1 of 8 different donuts to try them. The Boston cream is one of the best donuts I've ever had. They don't skimp on glazes or fillings! The WTFluff with peanut butter and marshmallow, the little cronut with lemon curd or marionberry filling are also very very good. I didn't care for the large cronuts. The dough in that size is too tough I think. The apple fritter was good but very little apple. The strawberry-raspberry filled sugar donut is good too. It's definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area. I will definitely be back for my faves in the future. The image has a 16oz bottle so you can see the size of each donut. Some are the smaller sized. Total for all this $20.75. Super reasonable!!

really well made cronuts, the texture was spot on, the 4 comes from them being a touch too sweet for my liking. however the star of the show wasn’t the cronuts but instead the apple fritter, so so good not too sweet and the apples were really gooey and again the texture was perfect. would go again, there were bunch of good looking pastries lol

The Bernie will change your life. Lemon is my second fav and anything chocolate they have is a staple. Donut savant supremacy

To the donut lovers in town, if you haven't been to this place you are missing out. Before writing this review I tried their donuts on 4 different occasions and every time they out performed my expectations. Hope you all love it as much as I do.
