I went there this morning for the first time.

I gotta say, that place is awesome, but a little pricy.

Their cinnamon rolls are unbelievable but can put you in diabetic shock.

I had the pork belly breakfast burrito and it didn't disappoint.

We had four donuts/cin rolls, two sandwiches, and three drinks, and the total was $44

I must admit, my daughter got a donut. She loved it but the bite I tried was a little dry, bread like, not a donut dough. However, like I said, the cinnamon rolls are amazing.

Absolutely my favorite chicken sandwich, burgers/sliders are good too...not a big fan of the donuts either. Heard they are opening one in one of those food court concepts in Las Vegas soon.

I can't imagine paying that for Donuts. The place we go, we get a dozen kolaches and around a dozen donuts/holes and it's like $20

How far did you make it into the cinnamon roll? Took me 3 days to eat mine when I got one.

You’re right - that sucker is delicious, but almost overpoweringly so.

The buttermilk drops are the best thing there.

Like I said, it was pricy, especially the donut. Their donuts are $4 each and not that good. Their cinnamon rolls are $4 each and will feed 2.

Their sandwiches are moderately priced at $6-$8, and damn well worth it. The pork belly taco was out of this world.

The donuts are mostly for show Imo so girls can Instagram them. Not very good.

But. The cinnamon roles are amazing and the actual food there is awesome. I love eating there personally.

They should change their name. It should be District othe shite. Donuts are not great but their other shite is legit. I like their Nitro coffee too.

Hot Chicken bisquit (not on menu but they make a limited number each day) and the miso prauline bisquit are very good. Their kolaches are top notch, pork belly or jalapeno sausage are great.

They did change their name. District Donuts, Sliders,and Brew.

Whatever happened to donuts being more egalitarian? Growing up it was associated with a more blue collar crowd and a police officer snack. Are complex gourmet donuts a fad similar to the frozen yogurt places that were popular a couple of years ago?

And beer used to be a cheap product associated with the lower classes.

Now people stand in line for hours waiting for the privilege to spend $22 on a 4-pack.

Times change.

...as I type this I’m in line waiting for a brewery to open.

I don’t see how a donut place can continue to sell those donuts. Their donuts are literally the worst I’ve ever had and they haven’t bothered changing them since they opened. I’ll try one every time i go just to see if they change them and nope, still terrible

That miso prailine bacon and egg biscuit it GOAT hangover breakfast tho

They probably haven’t changed them because they sell out of them. Every girl wants to come in an Insta them.
