Love going here after Sunday Church. Doughnuts are nice and fresh. Employees are very nice.

I was the only customer and the bakery was only open for a little over an hour. Not much to select from. Bought a doughnut to go ($4+), tasted like day old. I would not go back.

Hans is not Hans like it used to be. Bought out by a guy, from Russia, who went to NYC to make pizza, then to MN who bought out a large bakery and now has a bldg he mass produces bakery products in for many bakeries. Including Hans, promised to keep well regarded goods in stock, ha! Bee hive gone, when did have it, it was canned custard and not the signature tangy sweet filling. They do not bake anything at this once thriving bakery. Hans and the gal that bought it a while ago, then sold to this person, were the only good bakery owners. Sad...He was the one who owned famous Woulett also.

stopped in and purchased a maple bacon long John (first time trying), a small fruit treat and the DELICIOUS Bee Sting! Yes, the outer building needs help, but the treats were WONDERFUL!!
I'm definitely going back!! SO happy to see the Bee Hive and Sting back!!
Wish we could do a Habitat for Hans Bakery and get folks together to fix the outer building for them!! Would LOVE to see this bakery stay open!!

Dry, old, overpriced doughnuts! Dirty, rundown building. I have nothing good to say about this place.

What happened to this place? Inside was filthy, shattered and taped up windows, and the only employee in there was on a video call on his phone and continued on it while helping us. Phone in one hand and grabbing donuts with the other without even washing or gloving. One small case with a few selections. Almond Croissant was stale and dry, couldn’t even eat it. Back of parking lot was a graveyard of old equipment and overflowing storage cabinets. Will not go back.

Showed up at 6:55am to get about 5 dozen donuts. Waited till 7:10am and they didn’t open. Don’t post your hours at 7-2 when you are not going to be open! And there were other vehicles waiting in the parking lot also so it was more $$$ lost. Great business plan.

Went in on a Sunday 11am. Shocked to see such a dilapidated storefront as well as a run down interior. I told my husband how delicious their doughnuts were, talked the place up thinking Sunday would be the best selection, best tasting offerings. Not even close. It's like they went to Costco and threw what they bought in the case. It was filthy inside to boot. I felt so stupid for having proclaimed how fabulous their pastries are. The gentleman who served us was wonderful, but sadly not enough to warrant another visit or my usual large purchases via the website for Valentine's, Father's Day and kids birthdays.

Arrived at 9:30am on Thursday morning and they were closed. There were two other cars that also pulled in. Sign says they are open at 7:00am. I can see why there are so many negative reviews the place looks abandoned.

Sunday morning - 15 minutes after a published opening ther were only 3 trays of poor selection left - with 2 bees in inside the case. And when I got home 2 apple turnovers that were ordered and paid for were missing from the box of other donuts. Place is in a sad state - it used to be so good! Not planning to come back.

Hans used to be fantastic! I work in Anoka and would stop after work from time to time to get my kids treats. Ever since the new owners took over it has gone down hill so much. I stopped a couple weeks ago. It was maybe 7:15 in the morning and they weren’t open. A guy came outside and said they’d be open in another 15-20 minutes. I asked about the Texas sized doughnuts and was told they don’t have them anymore. My kids and their mom went this morning and the selection was very limited. It’s really a shame to see what once was a thriving bakery basically die. Hopefully someone buys Hans and returns it to its former glory.

Used to be great neighborhood place that was warm, inviting, bustling, and full of great baked goods. Unfortunately it's now a shell of what it used to be.
It was dark, empty, shelves and displays were empty, lights were out, and the person working wasn't friendly. It was our last visit. Would not recommend.

This place was WAY overhyped when I was in middle school, and the limited hours back then meant I never bothered to try to go there back then. I forgot it even existed until I was an adult once I wasn't attending right across the street. Now maybe they're just not that good ANYMORE, I don't know, but I was kind of expecting more.

Horrible experience hardly any donuts to pick from, and expensive. Also hot in there, claims AC is out, such a disappointment. It use to be a great place and now not even a nice employee.
Clearly day old doughnuts on a Saturday morning there was only 2 cases with any product!!!
The server was rude and judgemental on me and my girlfriend.
There was only a few lights that were on in the entire building made it difficult to see.
