    The apple fritter is quite good. We already ate half before I could snap this picture.

    The donuts here are amazing. It is our favorite place to go especially if we have visitors from out of town.

    Cranky Al serves superb organic, fair-trade coffee and offers $$ discounts for bringing in your own coffee/travel mug. Plus, they have spectacular, fresh donuts!

    Donuts are pretty good, but not the best. Cappuccino and cold brew were bad. Seemed like a very popular spot for young families, as there were kids running around all over the place.

    Try the fish, chicken, or shrimp fry on Friday night! It's unreal. Cheap, large quantity, and crazy good! Best fish fry in town

    Craving a doughnut on a Monday? You'll have to wait! Only open Tues-Sun so plan ahead. The Crullers are worth going back for anytime.
