Stupendously-delicious donuts. Eggy, fluffy, deceptively-light, so fresh. Best bites we had on our trip to Vermont. I’m not even a big donut fan, and I sat here and vacuumed, mouth-wide, three donuts with my husband and we couldn’t decide which were our favorites! Loved everything we got - the apple crumb, lemon-coconut, maple. Delicious French onion focaccia, but the draw is these donuts. A major reason to come to Woodstock! This place will, no doubt, continue to thrive. 5 stars!!!

We were recommended this stop by a store owner in town and we were not disappointed ! The exterior building, grounds, and parking lot were well kept. Upon entering, the interior atmosphere was very nicely done, clean and bright. Staff was friendly and everything on offer looked like something you'd want to take home. We settled on a sausage & egg breakfast pastry, a mushroom breakfast pastry, and (4) donuts for later (i.e. pumpkin, maple, blueberry, and apple). The pastries were really, really good. They looked like something you would find on a magazine cover and tasted even better. Flaky with perfectly prepared fillings. We ended up trying (2) donuts after dinner tonight, pumpkin and maple. Again, beautiful to look at which is weird to say about a donut. They tasted just as good. The

My, what a lovely place! I drove from Lebanon just to try it and I was pleasantly surprised in every aspect. I expected a run-of-the-mill homemade doughnut and pastries, however the food quality exceeded my expectations by being some of the best I have ever eaten. Perhaps THE best doughnut I've ever had. The inside is beautiful (special thanks to Geo Barns), there is two floors of dining including a nice screen porch (photo). The counter staff is pleasent and knowledgeable, I'm truly impressed! I'm definitely going back!

I think these donuts are the very best I've ever tasted. Seriously. They also keep well, as they're just as good straight out of the fridge the day after. Space and general vibe are fab as well. Buyer procedure could be greatly improved though with self serve donuts and especially brewed coffee. Oh, and speaking of, this is Vermont people. We like STRONG, BOLD, CUT IT WITH A KNIFE AND FORK DARK ROAST, coffee that's worthy of these amazing donuts. Otherwise, fabulous new addition to the Woodstock culinary community.

★★★★★ 5.0 Staci Thurston · Nov 2025

The donuts are delicious, love the variety of flavors. And it's not just donuts, they have some focaccia and other pastries as well. Around lunch they have amazing looking sandwiches. The only negative thing I have to say is there was and is always a line and the space for the line was not thought out very well, the line blocks the door.
