Fantastic donuts! The offerings in coffee and other pick-me-ups looked fabulous as well! Great variety in donut flavors/toppings and a fantastic environment! Well worth the stop on your journey into work, your co-workers will thank you!

Best Doughnuts in Rochester. Get there early before they sell out daily. The specials are always great. They have GF options and great coffee. Customer service is always top notch and very friendly.

Not impressed. The chocolate covered gluten free was bland and too dense. The staff was not very friendly or warm. They seemed bothered that they had a customer. It was only 11:30am. The coffee was so-so. Only cake doughnuts are available. Personally...I found the supermarket across the street to have better selection and friendlier staff. It's always nice to try something new. This won't be a repeat visit however...

We love Drift Dough! It's become our Friday morning tradition. The Fruity Pebbles donut is the best. Get there early or order ahead! You won't regret it.

Hands down the best donuts in town, vegan or otherwise. Few places in town are worth going out of your way for, but Drift Dough is a heavy hitter and makes Rochester taste great. I get mine to go and eat them in the studio or office with my coffee. Glad to see them in their new home at Old Abe’s.

What a fantastic donut shop!! My wife and I were thrilled to learn they have gluten free donuts. They also have several variations of vegan donuts. I love the imaginative donut flavors. Keep an eye on their Instagram channel for the current flavors, they do a great job of posting regular updates. Also, be sure to try the nitro brew coffee or kombucha. Both are fantastic.

Not great donuts. Tried 6 different kinds. None stood out as something I would ever have to eat again. The coffee may be stellar and the restaurant is ok but the donuts being served are disappointing. If you like hard and bland cake donuts (no judgement, that's how my grandma loves em), you will like em but then you may as well go get some day old donuts for a third the cost at kwik trip. Very few options, very small donuts, over priced. Overall, very underwhelming experience. I believe the inflated reviews to be due to the "coolness" of the location and the loyal hipsters that frequent the joint.

Meh. In my opinion it shouldnt really be called a doughnut shop as they only have cake doughnuts with various frosting flavors. I grabbed a half dozen on my second visit(the first time they were sold out) and wasn't impressed with any of them. The coffee was good but I wouldn't pay that much for my sugar fix when there are other options in town that do more than cake.

I love these doughnuts and supporting local businesses but two out of the three times I’ve went they’re sold out of their doughnuts and never has the nitro cold brew which shows up first on their menu when you search their menu online. If you don’t have any product how are you supposed to reach customers? At least kwick trip across the street always has doughnuts so I’m just going to go there now 🤷‍♀️

First of all, they only do cake doughnuts. If I am going for doughnuts, its not for the cake doughnuts, although I do buy some cake doughnuts and done RIGHT cake doughnuts are great. This review has nothing to do with their selection of only cake doughnuts, but I think their website should at least state that (it does not). I bought 6 when I was there and only 1 out of 6 was spectacular. That 1 doughnut was light and soft, like a good cake. The flavor was also spectacular (It was caramel with candied almonds I believe). The rest of the donuts were far too dense, had no flavor, or had bad flavors. For example their cinnamon roll had stale/chewy cinnamon toast crunch on top which was absolutely disgusting. Their goji berry with cranberry sugar was so dense and tasteless I didn't finish it. To their credit, the vegan doughnuts taste no different than the regular doughnuts. Finally, I find it very hard to believe that the reviews are so positive. Everyone I have talked to has had the same review and that is "Meh." I have 1 out of 5 stars because 1 out of 6 doughnuts was good.
