Logistics & Planning
Parking: Small shared lot out front plus easy street parking on Gage during morning hours.

Noise level: Low to moderate—short counter interactions and to-go traffic but still easy to chat.

Weekday lunch: Typically no wait, though sandwich orders may add a few extra minutes.
Dietary Options

Vegan options: Limited—most donuts contain dairy and eggs; black coffee is an option.
Gluten-free options: No dedicated gluten-free donuts or prep; cross-contact is unavoidable.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only for extremely casual meetups—think coffee and a donut rather than a sit-down date.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—there’s no reservation system; grab-and-go is the norm with minimal seating.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes—great for quick donut runs with kids; the space is small but welcoming and easy to navigate.
Best For
Better for: Consistently fresh donut holes, fast service, and low prices that beat many larger chains.
Skip if: You want artisan or specialty donuts, extensive seating, or a café-style environment.
