We have been eating Sandra's donuts for over 20 years and they never disappoint. When the shop changed owners, I was worried that I would lose my favorite donut establishment. However, really only one thing has changed and that's their hours. I would've given a five star review, but every time when I go in after 10 o'clock, they are almost sold out and they don't close until one. I did finally find a workaround. You can download their app and order your donuts for pick up the next day.

Best donut spot hands down. The service is always fast and friendly, no matter the rush hour or line waiting. The bakery is always clean and stocked, and the donuts and other pastries they make fray daily, are to die for. It's the one and only place I get my donut fix. A must try.

Wow!!!!!!! I have only been here for donuts (which are really good) being newer to the state Sandra's came highly recommended for donuts. We wanted cookies made for our son's birthday beach trip and the gal I hired canceled last minute. I emailed a few locations around and Sandra's was the only one who got back to Me. I just needed some WOW factor haunted mansion cookies and told them I don't care what designs they do just so it's Disney haunted mansion. They ABSOLUTELY nailed it. I'm so impressed. Thank you for fitting me in a bit last minute. I couldn't have asked for them to turn out better. Life long fans and supporters.

Best cherry filled doughnut I've ever had! I did not go into the shop and only tried them from the selection my sister picked. They were so good that I had to yelp them. I'm not sure if the doughnut is the only star of the show as the cherry filling is amazing. Starting with the doughnut, I found the texture a perfect combination of thickness and fluffiness. The flavor was sweet but not a sugar overload. It's rare to find this type of balance. It wasn't until I bit into the cherry filling that I realized that good could get better. The cherry filling tasted like real cherries with natural cherry sweetness and not a bunch of sugar. Wow! Definitely a doughnut to remember. I am looking forward to returning on a regular basis every time I'm in the area. Great job!
