Food - picked up 4 doughnuts to share. A vanilla cake, a blueberry maple cake, a vanilla sour cream, and a cinnamon roll doughnut. The cake doughnuts were very soft and flavorful. The cinnamon roll was good and like a glazed donut. The sour cream had a nice crunch and great flavor. My personal favorite from the bunch. Service - Walk up counter with cases to choose your doughnuts. Restaurant - Large open space but minimal indoor seating at a bar. There are some additional seating spots outside. Everything was clean, just very dated looking. Overall - Good doughnuts to grab if in the area. Having tried a few styles, I would probably check out other locations unless I am specifically in this area and craving a doughnut. They seem to know what flavors work and keep it to that limited set.

Honestly, for our first experience at the Greenbush bakery, I would totally come here again with all my friends and family, the cake donuts, and regular donuts are on top of their game and not to mention their ginormous apple. Fritters you know they taste so good super fresh made daily 10/10 would come again.

The jelly, fritter, raised plain, and raised Oreo donuts were delicious! Although the old fashioned were more on the dense side. We got a half dozen and understandably had to get the fritter as an add on, since they are huge. The fritter had a good crisp exterior and soft interior, but was sparse in blueberry filling. The raspberry jelly donut was the best jelly donut I have ever had! It was generously filled with a naturally raspberry tasting jelly and the dough was perfectly soft. The raised donuts were also very soft, tasty, and had a good amount of glaze. The Oreo specifically had a nice crunchy coating on top. Unfortunately, the old fashioned donuts which we got, were more dense than I’m used to. Regarding flavors of those, the blueberry tasted like a blueberry muffin, and the chocolate was chocolatey as expected, but the cherry just tasted sweet. The servers were polite and helpful when we asked about their fritter recommendation.
