Customer Reviews
Five stars isn’t enough for The Heavenly Donut Co.! Their maple bacon donut is pure bliss—crispy, smoky bacon on top of a warm, pillowy donut with that rich maple glaze… unreal. It’s the perfect sweet–savory combo that somehow tastes even better with every bite. I’ve been back three weekends in a row just for that donut (and I’m plotting weekend #4). The staff is friendly, the shop smells like happiness, and everything is fresh. If you try one thing, make it the maple bacon donut—you’ll be hooked!
The reviews were good, so we had high expectations, but unfortunately we were disappointed. The donuts were dry, lacked flavor, and had an oily taste. There were plenty of staff on duty, but they seemed more focused on completing other orders than assisting walk-in customers. We were asked to wait “just a moment,” which normally wouldn’t be an issue, but while we were eating our donut, more staff came out from the kitchen area, making the wait feel unnecessary.
Legitimately the best apple fritter I've ever had- Soft and fluffy on the inside, but crispy and perfectly caramelized on the outside. They're also enormous. The donuts are incredible, as well- the fluffiest/lightest I've ever had. They straight up melt in your mouth. I used to think that donuts are either good or bad, and that the good ones are all pretty similar from place to place. Heavenly is on a whole other level, though, and are now my donut gold standard. Great job, guys!
Heavenly Donut Company lives up to its name. From the moment you walk in, the smell of fresh-made dough and sweet glaze sets the tone for what’s about to be a seriously good treat. The donuts are soft, fluffy, and perfectly balanced — not too heavy, not too sugary, just right. The classic glazed donut is a standout: light, airy, and melt-in-your-mouth good. Their specialty options, from filled donuts to long johns and twists, are just as impressive. Everything tastes fresh, like it was made that morning (because it usually was). The kolaches are also worth mentioning — warm, savory, and a great option if you want something beyond sweets.
We decided to go a little crazy and we ordered one of everything. We aren’t regretting that decision. Our top rated donuts would be the (#1 vote by group) Chocolate covered Bismark, raspberry filled powdered donut, the French toast donut (so good!), and then my youngest loves the donut holes and the chocolate donut with chocolate glaze and chocolate sprinkles (triple chocolate by name), the apple fritter, the HUGE cinnamon roll…there just isn’t a bad one in the bunch. Highly recommend. My husband and their coffee and said it was good as well.
