The Salty Donut

I tried the Brown Butter & Salt donut, and the Samoa Cookie Dough donut—both were good, but the BB & Salt was the standout. Absolutely loved it. The Samoa tasted like the girl scount cookie! I’m already planning to come back and try the Peach Cobbler and Oreo flavors next. Parking was a bit of a hassle, but we managed. The outdoor seating area was great—plenty of tables, umbrellas, and a nice vibe. Inside the building was pretty hot, like the AC wasn’t working, but that might’ve just been a fluke that day. The service was fantastic. The staff was friendly and had great recommendations. I’m definitely coming back, especially to finally try the cheddar cragel I’ve heard so much about.

Such a fun breakfast spot! The cinnamon cereal milk latte was delicious, as was their egg and cheese croissant, brown butter donut, and key lime donut. I can’t wait to go back for more! The staff was very friendly as well. The only down side is extremely limited parking and no inside seating (we went while it was raining and hung out on the porch), so just come prepared for that.

Donuts are so good and we enjoyed sitting on the covered porch having coffee with our dog. Dogs not allowed inside but on the porch was welcome. Coffee A+, donuts A+. Even the restroom was so clean and cute (we haaate filthy restrooms). We will be back

Such a cute place! I could tell that the donuts were going to be good, but omg they were amazing!!! The coffee was delicious too!!

Went to the new location in seminole heights and I thought it was so cute and nicely renovated. However, there is no indoor seating and the parking lot is extremely small with a pothole upon entering. Luckily there weren’t many people and I was able to order quickly. There is outdoor seating with fans but lots of flies out during the afternoon. Overall the donuts are really good and the presentation is amazing!

I was super excited to check out the new Salty location- I attending the grand opening in Hyde Park and enjoyed their products a lot. I expected similar vibes and service but unfortunately, this was not the case. Number one issue is the parking situation; there are approximately four spots. One is marked “15 minutes only” and this is not regulated. If there are no empty spots, the only remaining option is to back up your car onto Florida ave and pray you don’t get smacked by oncoming traffic. Once I was able to park, the entrance was easy to figure out. The inside space is quite cramped and it can be hard to understand where the line starts and where to wait. The presentation of the food was great- I did not see any of the toasts that were advertised, but there were plenty of donuts. I ordered the Samoa chocolate coconut donut ($4.50) and a ham and cheese pastry ($6.50). I asked if I could pay in cash, and this was fine. I paid, and my donut was ready, so I got distracted and forgot to grab my cash back. The worker seemed very annoyed and I was confused about what I did wrong. I just didn’t know where to wait and was called to grab my order but I felt like I made them mad. I feel bad for the employees having to deal with all the hype, but it is super disappointing when a new spot opens up, there’s tons of hype, then the employees seem angry about said hype. It is rare that I have uncomfortable interactions with restaurant staff, but this one made me leave feeling confused and disappointed. The donut and pastry were not what I expected either. The donut was incredibly sticky and dry at the same time; I am not sure if it was a bad batch but I would not recommend their coconut flavor. The pastry was supposed to be ham and cheese but everything was concentrated right in the middle so it was five bites of pastry and one bite of cheese and ham. I wish this location the best, but I will not be recommending this spot till things improve somewhere. I know not everything can happen at once, but I am looking forward to trying again soon in the future! Thank you for your thoughtful and professional response as a business.

The location is perfect and the set up outside is nice! I must say I wasn’t really impressed with the quality of the donuts though especially if they’re going to be $5 for a single donut—we ended up spending $20 for 4 donuts.

Amazing spot! The location is great with lots of outdoor and porch seating. Highly recommend.
