I wanted to like this place because it is local owned and they make all of their baked goods in house. Unfortunately after two disappointing visits, I will not be returning. The pretzels were doughy and chewey, the donuts were dry. I wanted to give them another chance after my first visit, but my second visit caused me to have mild food poisoning afterwards. Both times they had a child (no older than 10?) running the cash register, fetching baked goods and pouring coffee, with zero help from the multiple other (adult) employees who were behind the counter. I honestly felt bad for this child, they were clearly flustered and overwhelmed handling all of that work. I am all for supporting family-run businesses, but the vibes were sad. I can only hope this child is at least being employed within fair child labor laws and being paid fairly for their work.

We tried this place because everyone says it’s great and their donuts are incredible. When we walked in it was a weird experience all around. They must have recently moved things around because people in line kept saying how not organized the new layout was. I’m not sure what the old layout was, but upon walking into this place it’s extremely difficult to figure out where the line starts, where people are waiting for drinks, and where people are sitting to eat. The only employees we interacted with were less than 10 years old. Donuts were okay- we got 6 of them, which was a good deal at $10. Some of them weren’t great and you could tell they fill them with commercially purchased products like the lemon and raspberry filled donuts. Others like the cinnamon swirl, or the peanut butter filled donut were excellent! Coffee was way too sugary and not my style, which is probably my fault not theirs. One thing I’d recommend to the owners of this place is to have a consistent menu that is available everywhere. The online menu, and the TV screens above the registers are different, and then there was a specialty drink paper menu at the registers, which wasn’t available anywhere else. Seems like not a tight operation, or they were having an off day.

Golden harvest. what a gem!!!
Went there for breakfast this morning and was so excited to see that they had vegan donuts!!! They were such a delicious delight!
It was so cute in there and the staff was so friendly. They seem to be family run; such a cute concept. Can’t wait to go back :)

There is no other plain glazed donut that can come even close to the amazing goodness of these glazed donuts!! I don’t even like glazed donuts from anywhere else. That is usually one of my last choices of donuts to pick from. A friend brought a dozen glazed donut to a meeting last year. When I tasted it I thought I died and went to heaven! I recommend that donut over every pastry I can think of.

Beautiful donuts. What else can one say, except that I also had a very reasonably priced eggs and bacon and sourdough plate and a DELICIOUS maple glazed cinnamon roll. They also have a lot of Mennonite (?) farm dairy, precooked food and other things like honey and maple syrup. Also, deaf friendly. Highly recommend.

Nice place, in town staying at the hospital, ordered breakfast sandwiches, and coffee. Ended up getting a huge pretzel before we left for an unbeatable price. Probably will be back before we leave to get some A2 Milk!! They did forget to add the avocado to my sandwich but went back in and they took care of it!

I’m still rating 5 stars because they’re a local business and I do LOVE their vegan donuts, but this is the second time I’ve driven out to Golden Harvest all the way from Fairport and found a closed sign on their door. I’m all for staff vacations or temporary hours or whatever you need to do, but PLEASE update your google maps hours of operation when you do, thank you 💜
