This is what you’re looking for if you’re looking for an actual flavored donut. They commit.Instead of calling it a a Oreo donut and crumbling ores on top of a plain yeast donut, this place does not just sprinkle something on top and call it a day.The key lime pie donut was amazing and the banana was super banana-y. A little too ripe, but I applaud the thoroughness.Majority of them are stuffed with a unique inside, I think mainly flavored puddings

I'm a huge donut fan, so naturally I perused Yelp in hopes of finding some good donuts when we were visiting DC. This spot came through!My husband and I shared:- Raspberry Lemonade Donut- PB&J Donut- Blueberry Muffin DonutI loved all of them. I think my order of preference would be PB&J, Raspberry Lemonade, Blueberry Muffin, but I would happily have any of them again.

Seating was odd…only outside. Next door at the bar was open for seating. Chicken was great. We ordered a family pack and it was enough food for 5 of us. No plates or napkins were provided.

Got the fried chicken on cheddar biscuit. Added cheese, egg and the honey butter. Hot sauce onto the side. Also a raspberry cheesecake donut. They were pretty good and satisfied my chicken biscuit craving. I should have added bacon too. Donut was fine. I'd go back to try again, and try the Cinnamon donut.

Chicken sandwich was amazing! And the doughnuts were equally as good! Service was quick, they don't have indoor seating so we ended up taking ours to go.. but if you're in the DC area I would recommend this place for a quick treat

This place is tiny, with a few tables outside, but it's worth the wait. I liked the cake donut the best, but the star of the show was the chicken. I tried it both on the cheddar biscuit and brioche bun...it's basically a toss up. The staff is very friendly as well.

Yum donuts!! My favorite local donut shop. Chocolate anything is great and I usually try the seasonal donut - right now its a Cherry Blossom donut with a jam filling and it's my new favorite. Fried chicken and donuts. Cant go wrong.

Delicious donuts! My favorite was the chocolate Oreo.

Damn, some of the best fried chicken I have ever had. Crispy outside, well flavored, moist and tender inside. I love that you can order different flavor profiles on the outside coating, and different levels of heat. We had this meal for dinner one evening when we were too tired to go elsewhere, and it was on the way back to the Hyatt. Chicken sandwich on a brioche roll with lettuce and tomato. Nicely done. Also had the 2 piece, breast and wing, buffalo style. As I said, some of the best chicken ever. It’s dry rubbed and fried, so if you want it saucy, order the sauce on the side for dipping. We had a biscuit, tots and some jalapeño coleslaw to finish it up, all very tasty. We did not get any donuts to try, but they did look good in the case, and I know you can order a chicken sandwich with a donut for the bun, maybe next time.

My husband and I stopped here for lunch after viewing the cherry blossoms. The restaurant is very small with just a countertop to order from and minimal room to stand. In front of the restaurant on the sidewalk is a few tables and chairs to eat at. The line was out the door when we arrived at 11 am. I had a chicken sandwich with honey mustard and pickles while my husband had a side of tator tots. For the donuts, I ordered a creme brulee and tiramisu while my husband had the cherry blossom. The food was enjoyable. The chicken sandwich was the most disappointing as the chicken didn't have a ton of flavor. The highlight for me was the creme brulee donut. The donuts are not cheap.
