Royal Donut

Decent prices and good donuts. However they really need a new toaster. The thing takes forever. You are a donut shop, invest in a toaster for your bagels. One of the staff there clearly doesn’t like when you ask for a toasted bagel because she tries to get out of doing it. Invest a little money on a toaster and maybe spruce up the place and then this is a five star place.

Was driving on State Rd. and decided to look for some quick breakfast grub to go. I passed by Royal Donut and saw their sign advertising their Pumpkin with Cream Cheese donut. It intrigued me, but I didn’t really want donuts for breakfast, so I kept driving. As I moved forward, I wasn’t really seeing anything that caught my eye… I wasn’t interested in BK or McD’s, or the like either. Instead of driving around aimlessly, I decided to turn around and succumb to my intrigue with the Pumpkin Cream Cheese donuts. I decided to get a dozen so I can bring some home for the family to try. I was disappointed to find that these donuts are considered «specialty» and does not count in the dozen offer. I asked how much they were and was told they are $ 1.50 a piece or 6 for $ 7.50. Wow! Okay, fine… give me half a dozen. When she put them in the box, I noticed that they’re cake donuts, which I’m not crazy about. They sliced them in half and filled the middle with cream cheese… like a bagel. So I tried one right away and was not disappointed. They were pretty good. Not sure if it’s something I’d make a special trip for, but would definitely try again if I’m in the area and in the mood for donuts.

The sign out front has had me intrigued for weeks: Pumpkin Cream Cheese Doughnuts. What?! I finally picked some up this morning for the office, and they were delicious! They tasted like a pumpkin roll!
This shop is on my way home from my current love interest’s house, so I felt pretty scummy walking in at 7 a.m. with last night’s hair and makeup. But I also really wanted doughnuts. Great news! Turns out they have a drive-​through, so no more Walks of Shame to procure the best doughnuts ever (well, maybe a close second to Jack Frost)!
The employees were so nice, and I was pleasantly surprised that it is not cash only, and they accept credit cards.

A dozen donuts for less than $ 9? That’s worthy of a star all by itself!
These are not mass produced «ok» donuts; these are the real deal. Full of flavor, fresh, and tasty. Staff is very nice and the run down about to fall apart building is as clean as it can be.

These donuts remind me of my childhood neighborhood bakery shop. The «shop special» is a caked chocolate frosted donut that has a quality taste about it. Nothing like that institutional dough with fake tasting chocolate. Everything is good. I’ve never been disappointed. I drive out there to buy donuts for my family in Lorain County.

HOLEY DONUTS ! ! !
WOW ! The Chocolate Fried-​Cake-​Style with a light clear sugar glaze are OUT OF THIS WORLD ! This holey wonder — whose Earthly home-​base is Cleveland, Ohio in a re-​purposed drive-​in from the 1950’s — must have come here from another planet, and is now replicating itself every morning just to keep us content and unsuspicious.
I don’t live nearby, but when in the neighborhood for business, or other, I’ll stop in for half a dozen to take home. About twenty years ago, an employee brought some to work and I couldn’t believe how delicious they were. Twenty years later they’re exactly the same — slightly crisp exterior, tender moist interior, and deliciously mild chocolate flavor.
I’m very particular about donuts, cakes and pastries, so very rarely purchase. Even restaurants and bakeries extolled for their sweet offerings leave me unimpressed. My grandmother always held the number one spot, with Hough’s Bakery number two. They’re both gone now, so I seldom eat desserts of any type, but I’ll make an exception for an occasional Royal Donut indulgence.
I highly recommend it. (It’s so good I’ve never bothered trying any of the other donuts that they offer.) They sometimes sell out early, so call in advance.

There’s a Dunkin’ Donuts just east of here on Snow Road. It seems like it makes sense to compare them. At Royal Donut you get better prices, worse coffee and better donuts. Sometimes they don’t seem as fresh but if you get up early you’ll be fine. At Dunkin’ Donuts, you payt more, get better coffee and all the dounts taste the same. They sell a bunch of yucky microwaved egg sandwich things too but don’t bother. Royal Donut sells donuts and coffee. I like this place but it might seem a bitt ratty to some people. It seems like it has been there since the sixties.
