Love love love the breakfast. They make such good breakfast foods that are so delicious and sweet. None of that half icing too much dough stuff. With every bite you get a full all around taste of sweetness that will have you going back every time you pass the place. Definitely 5 stars.

I love Linne’s! I grew up going there as a treat if I got out of school early/going late or in the summer. As an adult, I treat my once challenging bus route to an assortment of donuts a few times a year following good behavior. I did the same when I drove in another district and bought from the Sweet Shoppe in Greenfield. The kids are always ecstatic to see I bought them donuts from Linnes instead of Dunkin’! While I admit I haven’t had every donut, my favorite is the chocolate iced filled barn. It’s the perfect mix of a rich pastry, chocolate, and just the right sweetness of icing inside. The owner of Linnes is just the coolest. Very down to earth, extremely hard worker, honest, and I love that he carries his firearm with him. He exercises his right to keep him, his employees, his customers, and his business safe. It is refreshing to see conservative Christian business owners- but- they are welcoming and happy to serve EVERYONE! Parking can be a chore during the normal breakfast hours, but that might be better with the new parking garage. I am usually there around 6:30am and don’t have a problem parking the bus right there. Most recently, I ordered a half sheet cake for my casual BBQ wedding reception. It was comparable price to Sam’s club or elsewhere- plus our local Kroger isn’t even taking cake orders due to short staff. It was perfectly moist and a huge hit. Everyone was happy to indulge in a locally owned business’ product and brought back some memories for friends who had fancy wedding cakes done for their wedding decades ago from Linnes. It’s a cute place, good prices, excellent food, and wonderful people. Shop local and come in for your donuts or lunch!

A+ The best donuts by far! The service is exactly what you want- friendly, efficient and helpful. They have been around for many years so they have lots of experience. The overall feeling when you walk in is HOME. I think that because they are family owned and have been in the same small town that they have a strong base of returning customers. They don't need to be any thing but exactly what and who they are. We will be back and can see making the trip ever so often!

Visited during lunch time. It was quiet and not busy but they still have some donuts and pastries. The Italian sandwich i ordered was tasty. I ordered a huge eclair and it was only average. I would visit again and try more food amd pastries.

Accidentally found this place while driving west from the Cincinnati airport to find somewhere to watch the eclipse. Best donuts we’ve ever had! So light, delicious and cakey. Not heavy and greasy. Just awesome. Some really unique flavors too. Plus they had some eclipse themed donuts and pies that were as tasty as there were adorable! Staff was very friendly as well!

It was our first time there. We purchased a variety of goods. So far we have tried the muffins (garman chocolate and carrot cake) and they are FANTASTIC 🤩 So moist and just absolutely delicious. The prices were very reasonable. I'm excited to try the other things we got. We will be back.

A very welcoming feeling when entering the building, was greeted very nicely. The selection was great and everything was fresh. We got donuts and muffins and the cranberry walnut muffin is delicious. The donuts were fresh and tasty. We really enjoy our breakfast here, definitely recommend.
