We went at 9:30 on a Sunday morning. This was the perfect time. They weren’t out of anything and there was no line.Staff were wearing masks, but they didn’t require customers to wear masks.We got 6 donuts. Here’s what we got, in order of my preference:- Blueberry (cake): Very good- Cinnamon Sugar Twist (yeast): Good, but I wish we’d gotten the cake donut version- Chocolate-Covered Sour Cream (cake): Good, but hard- Muscle (cake): We tried it because it’s made out of tofu and we were curious. Had we known it was also blueberry, we wouldn’t have gotten the other blueberry cake donut. We couldn’t tell that it was made out of tofu. But it was definitely harder than the other blueberry.- Eclair (yeast): Nothing special about it- Fresh Strawberry and Cream (yeast): Apparently this is their most popular; the cream tasted like Starburst, not a fanWe also got a large drip coffee and two small iced coffees (one with brown sugar cinnamon flavoring and the other with pumpkin pie flavoring). We wouldn’t get those flavors again. We would probably just go with normal cream and sugar.It came out to $23 for the 6 donuts and 3 coffees. She threw in some donut holes for us, which was nice! The donut holes were good!Overall, not the best donuts we’ve had in the state.

The employees are always so nice and the older gentleman remembers my husband every time he comes in. The donuts are super fluffy and delicious as always. Especially that strawberry and cream donut. You can definitely taste that the powder sugar is homemade.

Nice quiet yummy donut shop!It was hard to pick my donut but the lemon filled and the chocolate covered were calling me! And they were awesome!!! The lemon filled was soft and filled with a not-too-sweet lemon that was rich and very tasty. The chocolate had just the right crispness to the donut and the two chocolates combined wonderfully!I don’t travel this way enough...guess I will go this way a little more often!!

I‘d never expected such a good donut store in that strip mall. I got a recommendation so I knew where to go.I bought a dozen different donuts. They looked all great and tasted even better. Particularly the donuts with the fresh strawberries were awesome.It is a bit expensive but totally justified.Certainly not the last time I go there.

Since I typically avoid refined sugar, let me say that if I’m indulging it will be worth the indulgence. Sweet Apple is one of the best donut stops in Atlanta, consistently well made and always fresh. The only problem is that they sell out and often have to close early. The owner and her staff are all awesome people too!

Donuts were fresh and tasty. Caramel Macchiato was also good. Good selection of donuts and drinks. Small shop with dining in. Uplifting music. Will visit again.

Nevermind the delicious donuts. Nevermind the fantastic selection of specialities but all the traditional donuts as well. Nevermind the iced coffee that rivals Dunkins. The passion the lady has that owns the shop far exceeds most. This is so evidence by how customer service oriented, friendliness, desire to make sure you are happy with your selection, and her recommendations that are informative but never pushy. I encourage everyone to stop by and say Hi. Eating the Reeses donut while sitting in Mcginnis Ferry traffic will greatly increase your mood for the day!

The sourdough donuts are amazing! Really the size of two donuts, but who minds that? Not overly sweet, but great flavor. Really like the red velvet as well

I stopped in here for my first time today and it will not be my last! I can definitely see why this place is voted the best donut shop in GA. I ordered an apple fritter and a chocolate glazed donut, and the owner gave me a free glazed donut. They were literally the best donuts Ive ever had. The coffee was also very good. Do yourself a favor and stop here. You cant go wrong with anything they have. Plus the owner is extremely sweet and friendly!

I adore Sweet Apple! My trip in is always the best part of my week. The donuts are amazing (Ive made it through all of them and cant really pick a fave because theyre all AMAZING) and their coffee is a thousand times better than anything you get at Starbucks. The owners are super friendly and add charm to the trip 😃

Review №27

Wow, wow, wow!! These are the most incredible tasting donuts I’ve had in decades! The variety of things to choose from is mind-blowing, and makes my stomach growl just thinking about them. I had the strawberry swirl, sour cream chocolate, and a couple of the cake ones! Every single one was fantastic. I suggest getting there early because they do run out early sometimes, just cause it’s so good!

Review №28

Good donuts, but came in at 9:30 and they were pretty much out of donuts. They only had one person behind the counter so each coffee order halted the whole line for a few minutes for the person to make it. I waited in line for 30 min to have 2 choices of donuts. 😒

Review №29

Always a great option for donuts. The owner is so sweet and makes everything from the heart. Very tasty and fair priced, the best sour cream & cake donuts and the piggies in a blanket help cut the sweetness too.

Review №30

Service was great! Nice choices of different donuts. We bought 6 different donuts to try. We always try every donut shops apple fritter because thats our number one favorite donut. We were a little disappointed in their apple fritter, a little too over cooked which made the edges dry, crispy and crunchy rather than soft and moist. The center section was more like the traditional apple fritter, however, the apple pie filling was smothered only in the center section rather than spread throughout the entire fritter. We also prefer fresh apple pieces cooked into the fritter rather than apple pie filling on the top.In our opinion, their strawberry cream donut with fresh strawberries was the bomb! Excellent texture and taste throughout the entire donut. Each bite was filled with fresh strawberries and cream in equal portions.We do recommend Sweet Apple.

First time coming here. We loved the chocolate frosted- peanut butter and banana heart filled doughnut. We also liked the powdered sugar doughnut filled with fresh strawberries. The apple fritter was kind of crunchy so we didn’t like that one as much as we hoped (maybe a one time thing). Our son loved the chocolate sprinkled regular doughnut. We will absolutely be back because of the tasty doughnuts, friendly service, and extra doughnut holes!

Amazing variety and taste of donuts. Anyone who goes to Dunkin or Crispy is missing out. The coffee is great, and there are pigs in a blanket. Amazing! And such a friendly owner and operator. Shes extremely kind and helpful. I would go here everyday if I could.

Review №48

I have explored a wide variety of donuts all around the greater metro-atlanta area and I have decided that Sweet Apple is my favorite donut destination!Bottom line is flavor. Many donut places have some gimmick or focus like the “made-to-order” places, the “decorate and flavor your own donut” places, the mini-donut places, and so-on. After the novelty of these other places wears off one comes to the realization that you might not actually love the donut itself. Flavor, texture, or toppings are bland or off.Sweet Apple has a huge selection of flavors and donut variety and every single one I’ve tried has been fantastic.Blueberry donut - contains and tastes like real blueberriesStrawberry donut - has fresh delicious strawberries every timeApple fritter - contains and tastes like delicious applesEclairs - perfect custard or frosting filling.Both yeast and cake donuts have the perfect texture you want from each style. I prefer yeast myself and they are wonderful.Nothing pretentious about this place. Very friendly owner that obviously cares about service and return business. She cut the straw for my 5-year old daughters milk cup so it would be perfect for a little kid (without me asking).The owner will sometimes bring out samples of a new donut flavor she is trying to see if you like it.... spoiler alert.... we always like it.My advice:Figure out what you love about donuts. Try lots of places, then come here and try sweet apple donuts, I bet you forever crave this place like I do.My only negative comment is that now I compare every other donut place to sweet apple and leave disappointed, wishing I had just gone to Sweet Apple instead.

Wonderful fresh hand-made doughnuts. The apple fritters are great, with enough apple topping to satisfy. The fresh strawberry or fresh banana are my favorites though, sliced fruit and thick whipped cream inside a bar doughnut coated in powdered sugar.Theyre the best doughnuts. Period
