Crema's Take
“This charming donut shop wins over families with freshly made pastries and a rare gift: the freedom to customize your own box exactly how you want it, whether that's all jelly-filled or adventurous maple-bacon creations. The quaint atmosphere and thoughtful details make it a beloved local spot where even birthday donuts feel special, though the quality of your visit seems to depend on catching the right staff member on the day you visit.”

Quaint donut shop with outstanding and delicious donuts! I had an Old Fashioned, and my kids got a glazed and a white iced with sprinkles. Flavor and freshness is awesome. I rewarded one of the huge fritters, but I wasn't sure I could finish it. Prices are very reasonable. Service was quick and efficient.
For once, scored here. Not my first time through the door but my first time leaving here with a product! I asked for a maple...with bacon. She set me up good. If you like🍁Maple but never had the bacon covered Maple frosted LONG JOHN then you haven't lived because it is soooo DELICIOUS, and an exquisitely unique blend on the taste buds. Sweet n salty. Photo for attention-getter purposes only.
They make great pastries here. The best thing I love about getting donuts here verses anywhere else is that you get to choose your own flavors. You can have a box full of nothing but jelly filled or you can get a variety. They are reasonably priced, taste great, and always fresh. Inside the building they have a little corner especially for the kids with Legos and stuff to keep them occupied.
We’ve only ever had wonderful experiences at Bearscat. From the decor to the donuts, everything is superb and well thought out. Our kids love getting birthday donuts from Bearscat because they’re the best joints in BisMan. 🙌🏻 The one minor complaint I have is about the car freshener. It had a strong chemically smell to it which gave me and my family headaches. We threw it out just after a week. I don’t know if others have had this experience, but I feel like it’s worth looking into. With all this being said, we will continue to enjoy Bearscat donuts! No need to remove stars. 🍩 **The Apple fritter is AMAZING. I’d say it’s like an apple pie and a funnel cake had a delicious baby! 🍏🥧
I would like to start off by saying the donuts are wonderful per usual. Savannah on the other hand, was a little different. As I walked in she had a very negative tone to greet me this morning. She seemed very annoyed of me being there as the customer. She was very pushy in rushing me to decide which flavors to choose. (I was the only customer in the store the whole time I was there.) I came in very happy and energetic & her energy really rubbed me the wrong way and i recommend it to be addressed by her manager(s)
