It's a marvel to behold .Parking: Parking on the small side since there is a drive up. Do go in. You'll see great things laid out in perfect order on display.“
“I'm a regular at a Mary Lee in Baton Rouge. The only reason I found myself here was I was on the way to deer hunt and had to go for gas nearby. This one had barely opened, and several people were ahead of me. For what I'm accustomed to, and the schedule inwas trying to keep, this was a mistake on my part. He was literally taking donuts out of hot glaze and serving them the second they were safe, filling donuts to order right in front of us. Every donut for every customer was being made to order. I was watching the dark disappear and knew I was late and getting steamed. And I thought, why? I use the best Mary Lee in baton rouge, and believe me there are a number of them. They know me, my degrading up and down medical condition, can tell you where I work, the name of my autoimmune disease and my wife's current health. After about 30 years they finally installed a ramp, and i swear it was just because on a bad day I told one of the owners I may have to stop coming soon. they also do hundreds of dozens of donuts before 830. I walk in 6th in line, I'm out of the store with my fresh hot glazed, hot jalapeño kolache, two packs of mustard and a milk in like three minutes. Amite ain't the place. The pace is lovely. There is no fast setting. The owner is awesome and even if you haven't lifted a brow or made a peep, his internal clock tells him if he took a bit long, and I bet you find something extra in your bag. Love it, as is, never change. Y'all tip these folks well, they work exactly the right way. I'll try to be here earlier.“
