Continental Cafe - Coon Rapids

We've been coming here for years for donuts. There are a lot of different kinds to choose from, and they aren't too expensive. They also serve coffee and other food here, but I've never stopped for it. The owner is friendly, but a bit quiet. I don't mind, he's a nice man and I think he works hard. Thanks for keeping it up for us!!

I have bought doughnuts here at least 4 times now and they have all been great! The fritters are fantastic! Ultra crispy with a solid sugar glaze that hasn't liquified. Rivals the 3 Girls Bakery in Pike Street Market in Seattle for my favorite apple fritters! He also sells strawberry ones! If you know doughnuts, they are usually made early in the morning, so going later in the day means low selection. This cafe has at least 20 different kinds, so I think the reviews saying low variety must be going later in the day when it has been picked over. My daughter loves the frosted with rainbow sprinkles vanilla, chocolate and a strawberry glaze, which isn't just pink vanilla! There is also a great red velvet cake doughnut, as well as a fantastic sour cream old fashioned. There is a lighter eggy Kruller too! Love that he has the custard filled, as well as the kreme frostings. And several jelly filled. The price is right, and there are coupons on each dozen box for buy 12, get 6. Haven't tried the other food yet. I am just excited to find a local doughnut shop that makes great doughnuts!

I ordered a frosted apple fritter, and the guy kindly added two extra mini apple fritters on the house. He mentioned that the frosting tends to dry out the larger fritter, so he wanted to make sure I had something fresh to enjoy. I'm really glad he did because the mini fritters were incredible! I was blown away by how delicious, moist, and crunchy they were—definitely the best I've ever had! Thank you so much; I will definitely be back!

I popped in with my youngest son to pick up some straps for my glasses at Select Eye Care next door. Yes, I admit I'm getting older! LOL. Once we were done, I decided to treat my son to a doughnut. The bottom line? The doughnuts were delicious and the staff was really friendly. Now we make it a point to have Father/Son time every couple of weeks for a doughnut... or maybe two! It's the little things that bring us the most joy. Signed, a Dad with a Sweet Tooth.

We absolutely love the donuts at Continental Cafe. They offer a fantastic selection, and they always have a pink sprinkle donut for our daughter. Be sure to swing by for a dozen and support a local small business! You won’t regret it.
