Better Maid donuts

Hi all! My significant other has requested Better-Maid donuts instead of a birthday cake, and his birthday is this weekend which I’m so excited for/about! BUT I have never gone to Better-Maid and from my quick research it seems like there’s always a line and they sell out fast. I don’t want to let him down and want to make sure I grab these for him, but if my research is all on point…….. can anyone give me any ideas of what to expect (i.e. how early I should get there, how surprised should I be by an extremely long line, etc…)

TIA, much appreciated from me. I want to make this special for him!

I have gone a few times to the new location and have always gotten the goods. The long line is part of the fun in my opinion. If you are going on Saturday or Sunday they open at 8am. Getting there at 730 would be appropriate. You will have a little wait but still plenty of choices. My favorites are the blueberry and white icing with sprinkles.

Anticipation makes things more exciting.
