A Cameron icon, I was taken here for doughnuts because everyone who grew up here raved about Sweet Al's.
Unfortunately, my experience was similar to so many others here in the reviews. The filling in the doughnuts was alarmingly sparse, to the point where it was visually detectable, but couldn't be tasted.
The apple fritter was light on apples and almost devoid of spice. It tasted very empty and of sugar.
However! The blueberry cake donut was moist and flavorful, very delicious. I regret getting any specialty donuts and should have gotten cake donuts only. Had that happened this review would have been different

My husband and I went in there this morning. I try to avoid leaving bad reviews anywhere, but this place was horrible. The food wasn’t good, the service was horrible and made us both uncomfortable, and there were little flies in the donut display. We both felt like the lady didn’t want us in there at all, and even though we tried to be friendly, she just had a horrible attitude.

Stop it.. This place is so good it should be illegal. Love the gals that work here, everyone is always in a great mood. Try their biscuits and gravy. You won't be sorry. I might be addicted.

Got a variety that included bavarian filled. Ha if you consider less than a teaspoon of filling filled. Not worth the money. The donuts in general just weren’t as good as they were years ago.

Fun little place! We sat inside and enjoyed our donuts, and a lot of people were in and out taking large orders to go. The ladies were so nice chatting to me and my kids. My kids loved the trains!

I love this place, my 4 year old loves the train that goes around the top of the walls.

I stopped in to check out the place, I have only had their donuts once l, and it was great when they use to supply donuts for shell, it was a cinnamon twist, I was so happy to pass thru Cameron while they where open to grab a dozen for the family and try their coffee but the lady who was at the counter had a stinky attitude and just proceeded to stare at the wall not saying anything almost like she was annoyed I was there so I just walked out. Writing this in the parking lot and gonna head on over to Dunkin’ Donuts!
If you like donuts made the day before that aren't consistent, this is the place to go.Place looks abandoned and it's obvious there is not much love and care at this establishment.Many better options in the area.
Unfortunately I was underwhelmed at sweet Al’s. Only a few choices of donuts. I bought a raised cinnamon twist (needed more cinnamon) and a chocolate glazed cake donut. Both were okay but unfortunately not special nor the best I’ve had.

The items in the menu were not available. We got the breakfast lasagna and it was cold at the bottom. Nothing homemade. Soggy hash browns. Also got a glazed doughnut. Ice cold and the flavor left a lard after taste. The doughnut tasted like it came from the Walmart bakery. We threw the food away. Would never eat here again.
Nostalgic for the Cameron area. I've been visiting since I was a child, worked here for awhile and still find the want to come in and grab a doughnut as an adult.
We go out of our way when we travel to get these donuts!!! Fluffy and delicious.
Great selection at reasonable prices and friendly staff.
There was a Sweet Alʻs in Waikiki back in the days. Are you related? The big glazed donut was out of this world. Never had anything close to it!
