Agenda Pro Tips & Review

  • If you only have the appetite for one donut, go with the Cinnamon Sugar Donut (runner-up: Maple Bacon Donut).
  • I thought the Maple Bacon Donut would be gross. I was wrong. Now I understand why this is a top seller. It’s freaking delicious.
  • Currently, they have sample Cinnamon Sugar Donuts by the pick up area. I ate 5 pieces. Don’t be bashful, crush the samples (not sure how long they will be doing sampling like this).
  • Don’t expect massive donuts. The actual donut size feels petite, but not in a bad way.
  • If you’re making a large order, use the Donut Order Form (located next to the door when you walk in with pencils). Keeps things going fast.
  • The staff was helpful and plentiful.
