Dry & cakey. They shouldn't even be called donuts.

They are cake donuts. They are exactly what a cake donut is suppose to be.

But they are extra bland and get soggy from random toppings. Really nothing redeeming about them.

Sugar Shack made this top donuts in the US list: http://www.timeout.com/usa/restaurants/best-donut-shops-in-america

(Of course, it's the RVA flagship, and I can't vouch for the Alex. location.)

I took Sugar Shack, Dunkin' and Krispy Kreme to a staff meeting yesterday, and the SS were gone first, FWIW.

Too funny! To me, duck donuts are cloyingly sweet and Astro are tasty -- well, I only eat about a quarter of an Astro so maybe that's why they aren't too sweet for me.

Their appeal is similar to Krispy Kreme, in that a hot and fresh one is hands down amazing. No one likes a stale donut, and I am also not a fan of the cake donut, but a fresh Duck Donut is a different story.

Sadly, I was hoping Federal donuts was going to open here but it looks like that never materialized- if you are in Philly go there, amazing fried chicken and donut!!

I thought only kids eat donuts. I try to be health conscious and so I avoid them at all costs!

Agreed. Both posts are ridiculous.

Hey, donut conversation is serious business, even for us lean and healthy folks.
