"The old fashioned cake donuts at Top Pot are good enough, but so are the ones at QFC. Instead, you need to know about the filled brioche beauties at General Porpoise. Aesthetically, this coffee shop that sources beans from Oregon to Arkansas, is the setting of a TikTok waiting to happen: blue striped paper straws, a big marble bar, the plump donuts mentioned before (get one of each filling like vanilla custard and lemon curd), and great lattes with symmetrical froth art." - Aimee Rizzo, Kayla Sager Riley
