I almost never eat donuts but they looked really good so I grabbed a few, of course all filled ones. A jelly, Bavarian cream, apple turnover, and a few little powdered cream filled French ones.
The little French ones were heavenly! I could eat 40 I'm sure.
But I was surprised that all three of the others were not filled! Totally void of jelly, cream or apple
Maybe it's a sign that I don't need it anyway, but I found it so strange. I wonder if the donut filler called in sick....
Anyone else ended up with empty donuts?

I'd be really, really disappointed if the donuts weren't filled. I tried to stop by this weekend to check it out, but there was a line and I didn't feel like waiting. I also took that as a sign I didn't really need a donut:)

It's called the Donut Shop, east Bidwell next to Chipotle.

Yeah, sorry. Ive seen it mentioned on here while under construction and didn't think to include the name.

Heck I don't even know the name of the place but that hasn't hurt them in the last 15 years!

The doughnut place next to Raley's is the place to go. I see everybody there after soccer, baseball, etc. The place has ultimate staying power even in that basically abandoned shopping center.

I recently saw it referred to as Baker's Dozen' I think,
But yes, that place is great and has been there for years.
That's not to say that the Donut Shop won't stick around. I'm sure the lack of filling was not the norm.
It wasn't a big deal to me, but I thought about calling them just to give a heads up. Wouldn't want them to do that regularly.

The other donut shop is great too - though they haven't remodeled since the Nixon administration. It kind of adds to the charm of the place though!

That's what I was afraid of. Not sure why I'd go there over the other place if they cost twice as much. Maybe the coupon was just misleading. I'll check it out soon. Ice cream and doughnuts... I can't resist either one!it's a run of the mill donut shop, with a few donuts you don't see elsewhere.

I have the same additions but will take ice cream over donuts. My real problem is an on going love affair with dark Dove Chocolates.
Should we start an addiction group? LOL!

Agreed! Since I posted my pre-visit concern, I've gone a couple times. Their doughnuts are very good and I liked their coffee. They cost a little more than the other place, but I think it is worth it. Their original glazed doughnut is light and fluffy like an oversized Krispy Kreme.I LOVE this new donut store. It's about time there was a new, cleaner donut store. The donuts are delicious, the coffee is yummy, and the store has wi-fi.
