The coffee is always great with amazing service. The staff are always so happy and excited to see you I'm not how they are that excited every single time. That atmosphere and things in the shop are always so much fun to look at. The donuts are of course amazing with some wild flavors that you just don't get anywhere else!
I first heard of Drift Dough though social media and decided to check it out. They have unique flavors for donuts such as Chai Tea, Cotton candy, Thai Tea, Pomegranate Raspberry and more. These types of flavors first attracted me to Drift Dough to begin with. To be honest, the donuts are underwhelming compared to places like Krispy Kreme and Bloedows. The donuts to be seem really dry and often times the flavors arent really there or anything like what they are named, save for the Orange Dreamsicle which is my personal favorite. Hopefully down the road the donuts are improved upon, but they're not horrible. Interestingly enough, my favorite part of Drift Dough is the Nitro Cold Press coffee they offer. I usually have to drown my coffee in creamer but with the Nitro I don't have to add anything at all. Pricing is more than fair, the staff are always smiling, and that's more than enough to keep me coming back.
It's set up to be trendy but the actual doughnuts are a fairly average cake recipe. The doughnut names are neat but the flavor isn't much more than flavored frosting versus fresh ingredients, jams, etc. Skip the weight and grab a doughnut at your local convenience store. Priced for luxury, taste for just above average.
They rip through doughnuts so fast that you had better not sleep in if you want the best selection. The cold brew coffee is hands down the best I've had in Rochester! The doughnuts are fresh and delicious. If I had any complaint it would be how long the wait it was to get donuts. But then again they are new and crazy busy still working out the Kinks I would imagine. My suggestions would be to have little signs on the tray of donuts on the front counter telling you what each donut is instead of each person having to ask about every single donut. And maybe to have the line form across the front counter instead of back up through the door. Overall great experience and we will be back!!!
Beautiful and delicious donuts, with interesting and always-changing flavors! You can never try just one. Local coffee is another perk, along with loads of espresso options.
Tasty doughnuts, some quality vegan options too. Coffee was quite good. I appreciate the reasonable size of the doughnuts (can't scarf down massive doughnuts at my age 😉). The place has a funky vibe. We'll be back.
Mmmmm. Great flavors that are always somewhat different (check their Instagram for their menu). Gluten free selection on weekends. Good, hot drinks. Nice atmosphere.
