Cheat Treats

★★★★☆ 4 (136) • $$

"I love the treats here! I've been here a few times and love there are vegan and gluten free options for my allergy sensitive friends.It's a cute place, very cozy inside. The service is fantastic and the employees always go above and beyond to make anything you order look amazing. These photos are old but their shakes are awesome and delicious!"

Jack's Italian Bakery

★★★★☆ 3.9 (22) • $

"Delicious and cheap little bakery. Their pizza rolls here are to die for. The bread is light and fluffy, and feels like biting into a cloud at first. Then you hit the pocket of melted cheese and greasy pepperoni. Its one of those guilty pleasure train accidents that you want to avoid, but come at you like a delicious unavoidable mess.I also got a deep fried, sugar coated roll packed with cannoli filling that sent me to another level of diabeetus heaven. If you're on a diet, avoid this place, but if you want to have a moment of culinary clarity in your life, then you've found the spot!"

Vasi's Cafe & Bake Shop

★★★★☆ 4 (25)

"They have THE nicest customer service here. I needed a cake kind of last minute and they were so helpful and kind and provided a BEAUTIFUL and delicious cake for me. They also have a wonderful gluten free selection. We have some with gluten intolerances in the family, and they have a good amount of gluten free (GF) treats you normally don't see like GF cheesecake cups, GF cookies, GF "cosmic brownies". Their GF cakes are like no other. Usually they can be dry, but I could not tell the difference between that and a regular cake. Amazing! Will always support this wonderful, friendly, and delicious bakery."

Donut Bar + Coffee

★★★★☆ 4.1 (349) • $$

Donutown

★★★★★ 4.6 (76) • $

"Just the best donuts; especially the crullers. Been coming here for years. Donuts are always fresh, great selection. I always buy several crullers that are perfectly cooked with that slightly doughy interior. Donuts that are filled a filled generously. It appears family owned too."

Donutville USA

★★★★☆ 3.9 (124) • $

"These mf know how to make a donut !!!! Amazing nuts of dough and great nice workers. Been open for a long time."

Thread Creek Coffee

★★★★★ 4.9 (13)

"The employees there were super friendly and helpful. I got a hazelnut latte that was excellent, and I love that all of their profits go to fight human-trafficking. Highly recommend!"

Bayview Bakery

★★★★★ 4.5 (15)

"5 stars all the way! The owner is so nice and I just love coming down here. This is just what a quaint and charming downtown like New Baltimore needs, a good little bakery. Such a great location right on Front street facing the water, and she has wonderful things. I love the savory breakfast pastries (not sure what they're called). The one with spinach and feta is my favorite. On my birthday I had the most amazing layered raspberry cake, which she offers in slices (selections change and product offerings are not always the same). I love to be able to just get a slice of something and not have to leave with a whole cake (very dangerous to leave with a whole cake, especially if you're the only one in the family who loves to eat cake!). There's a whole variety of baked goods here, such as cookies including seasonal kinds, danishes/breakfast pastries, brownies, cakes, and in the refrigerator she even offers pierogi and other savory items! I'd like to eat my way through this place, ha ha!"

Daily Dozen

"Any far the best traditional doughnuts made. When you want a good fritter , or glazed doughnut these are best! My boys love the fruity pebbles doughnut ."

Dom Bakeries

★★★★★ 4.5 (485) • $

"nice find! we were very pleased. We walked in and I approached one of the customers in line and asked if the donuts were any good. The gentlemen said "Oh yes, I have been coming here for 30 years. The donuts are great and so is the coffee, and I should know cuz I'm a cop". He was not lying. everything was fresh and fluffy, mmmmm yum. Bonus is that all the donuts looked delicious."

Looney Baker

★★★★☆ 4.3 (213) • $

"Great donutsDecent coffeeGood drive thru with pleasant serviceI would recommend getting a bunch of donut holes or donuts for the workplace which is what I did. Everyone loved them"

Knapp's Donuts

★★★★☆ 4.4 (49) • $

"Just ok. Definitely a casual, take-to-go kind of donut shop. The location in a strip mall made for easy parking. Service was efficient but not overly friendly. I tried a few different kinds to get a sampling, and the cinnamon sugar was by far my favorite - the inside was light and fluffy. Unfortunately, I was eating the "nutty" donut and found part of it wasn't cooked all the way on the inside. I would also pass on the French crueller next time. On the bright side, I thought my order was very affordable but note they do have a $5 minimum for cards."

Mains Treat Coffeehouse

★★★★★ 4.5 (64)

"I was in the area and located this little gem not too far from where I was working. I was greeted by friendly staff who provided me with a recommendation that did not disappoint. I ordered the Maddie's Fav which was delicious, and gave me the extra boost I needed to get through the rest of the day. They also had delicious looking sweets, sandwiches and smoothies that I will definitely return to try."

Willie's Donuts

★★★★☆ 4.3 (58) • $

"You definitely don't count calories when you go to Willie's, but life's short, right?! Eat a donut (or three) from The BEST donut spot! The Earl filled with buttercream and their apple fritters loaded with huge apple chunks are 2 of my favorites and my ABSOLUTE favorite is the donut filled with Bavarian cream and fresh strawberries or raspberries! SO amazingly GOOD. The owner is incredibly sweet and talented, and makes all of the fillings fresh daily. She is willing to do my dozen special order call ahead within 24 hours (they can get pretty busy and sell out mid-morning most days), so I usually place my orders over the phone!"

Donut Castle

★★★★★ 4.5 (94) • $

"Forgot to post that I went for Paczki day! And oh my goodness they had the best just out of the over Paczki had both the custard which was divine and strawberry. Both were absolutely incredible. Service is always good there and everyone is so nice and friendly. Love coming here."

EnJoya Sweets

★★★★★ 4.5 (26)

"As long as I have lived close in the area of this bakery, I just learned about it last week! After viewing the IG page, and looking at all of the sweets, I knew I would visit the bakery soon!I went this morning, and the lady behind the counter was nice, and informed me that the bakery is temporarily going to be open only on Fridays and Saturdays. She also explained the menu and how they offer vegan options. There were different variety of donuts, cookies, cake slices, cupcakes available. I tried a glazed donut and ordered banana pudding. The donut was delicious! I haven't tried the banana pudding yet, but I can't wait to eat it! I'm definitely going back soon to try other goodies that they offer!"

Elias Donut

★★★★☆ 4.1 (48) • $

"It's Fat Tuesday Time ! Get you some of theses delicious Paczki! You can get them filled with different fruit jellies, meringue and puddings ( peach, apple, cherry, lemon, chocolate, vanilla). Yes, it was packed and Elias Donuts did a great job moving the crowd along and getting them donuts out of there. They also serve coffee, ice cream , smoothies and sandwiches here. Give 'em a try."

Yum Yum Donuts

★★★★★ 4.6 (31) • $

"The best donuts downriver. I've tried them all . These truly are fresh and delicious and reasonably priced. Family run and they have been here forever."

Monica's Baker Boy

★★★★☆ 4.2 (46) • $

"Monica's is now a morning tradition in Monroe. You cannot find a sweeter place to enjoy all your favorites, and their confectionery delights are unequalled. Their apple-fritter bread, donuts by the half or full dozen, and a fresh cup of their famous flavored coffees what a great way to start a day."

Golden Donuts

★★★★★ 4.5 (47) • $

"Been coming here on and off almost 20yrs. As of lately, been coming more frequently. Excellent quality of donuts. Literally the best donuts around. I even hear other customers say they drive from Port Huron just to come to Golden Donuts. Excellent service and ownership as well!!"

Donut Chef

★★★★★ 4.8 (38)

"Shelby Twp has needed a great traditional donut place and the Donut Chef is it. Its the perfect combo of cake style and dough style and custard. I wont go to any other place"

Donut Villa

★★★★☆ 3.5 (19) • $

"I would have loved to give this place 5 stars for the kind service but the selection was very small and the packaging was a disaster. Perhaps it was because we came on a Sunday evening and no fresh donuts were being made. A few of the donuts were pretty hard rather than soft fluffy goodness. The flavor is good - standard donut. My biggest issue is the way they package. I purchased a dozen donuts. I wanted a dozen good donuts. Not a dozen smushed donuts. Not a good idea to place 6 donuts in one paper bag. Disappointing to come home and have all my donuts turn into one big donut!!!!! Despite being careful. The few donuts they had which I was able to try were tasty. I would still come back during a time they're making fresh donuts and perhaps ask for better packaging."

Daily Dozen

★★★★☆ 4.4 (74) • $

"My favorite all time doughnut place. If you are a doughnut fan, you MUST try this establishment.It's been a number of years this little shop has local and regional recognition for how delicious their doughnuts are!A must try are:Sour cream crueler Red velvet Traditional glazed Eclair Apple fritterJelly filledSeriously you can't go wrong!The owners store operators are so nice and customer friendly!"

"This is a GREAT place to grab coffee and a snack! The owners are awesome and make sure that you're taken care of! Rick is the BEST!! Go see them and tell everyone you know!!"

Zeman's Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.2 (26) • $

"20 stars! Shoshana is my hero because she sent a delicious 7 Layer cake (like the kind Bubby would make) and cinnamon buns to San Diego! Out of this world! Thank you!"

Dutch Girl Donuts

★★★★☆ 4 (27) • $$

"There is always a line which goes fast. Staff friendly and patient. Small establishment so the line is always outside. The donuts literally melt in your mouth. The original glaze will always be my favorite."

Shelby Donuts

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (32) • $$

"My husband and I love donuts, a little too much. We live nearby so we decided to give this place a try rather than driving to Knapp's donuts. Their donuts aren't spectacular but good enough that I would rather go here than anywhere else since it's conveniently close. The donuts are still much better than the chain donut shops but still not as good as knapps or doms donuts. We have gotten their paczki as well and they are delicious with some very interesting flavors.While picking up some donuts for breakfast my husband decided to order some food as well. We shared a western omelet and biscuits and gravy. Half a dozen donuts and breakfast costs roughly $20 which isn't bad at all. The western omelet was nice a fluffy with lots of pieces of ham and vegetables. The biscuits and gravy was delicious. I will definitely return for their breakfast and donuts."

Marv's Bakery

★★★★☆ 3.9 (75) • $$

"I've only been here once. I need to come back. I love it. So many places in this area give me little reminders of "back in the day". First off, their brownies! I used to get brownies like theirs at a bakery in Madison Heights that was owned by a Polish woman and her son. They were my FAVORITE. I never thought I'd find brownies like those again and I did! I got one with peanut butter topping and yum!I also got a coffe cake which was really good! Crumbly and moist.What I liked is that they also had a deli. I hate getting deli meat at the grocery store because it takes forever. It was not too busy here. There was a staff working the deli and another working the bakery.I really had to stop myself from buying too much. This place is a gem and needs to be supported!"

McCallum's Orchard & Cider Mill

★★★★☆ 3.8 (20) • $$

"Great orchard. Went on a Saturday afternoon mid fall. They had a bounce house for the kids. A DJ booth set up for music, hays rides for the whole family, and the best apple cider donuts in the thumb. I would recommend this family owned business any day."

Knapp's Donut Shop

★★★★★ 4.5 (65) • $

"Knapp's Donut Shop in downtown Rochester is a classic gem. Their donuts are fresh, fluffy, and full of flavor. My favorite are the glazed donuts. If you're in the area, this is a must-visit for donut lovers."
