District Donuts + Coffee Bar
Tiramisu
Chocolate Milk
Brownie Batter
Sweet Root – Beet Glaze, Candied Carrots
Apparently unable to capture lightning in a bottle twice, a Hand Pie concept from the team behind District Donuts + Sliders + Brew quickly shuttered and reconcepted as a tiny Coffee Bar on the corner of Arabella and Magazine Street, District Donuts + Coffee Bar nonetheless shows just as well as its bigger brother when it comes to fried breakfast pastries while making the most of its incredibly limited space.
At most 200 square feet in size, the wedge-shaped bar still slinging out a multitude of Coffees, Cappuccinos and Lattes alongside Donuts, Biscuits and Kolaches brought over from the mothership, it was with window paintings of Donkey Kong looking on that a total of four selections were made to the tax & tip tune of $14, a steep price once again justified by the taste.
Changing up the options daily, everything including sprinkles and fillings made from scratch, in house, first bites of Brownie Batter were tasty despite not offering the Chocolate base that might be expected, a second unfilled choice of Sweet Root offering a complex flavor both earthy and aromatic thanks to sugar-encrusted Carrots and the faintly pink Glaze.
Moving on to two cream-filled pockets, both using the same stretchy Brioche base as the rings and holding up nicely without a bit of sog, Tiramisu does not play around with artificial booze or concentrate when infusing its center and topping with Espresso, Rum and Dark Cocoa, the Chocolate Milk a spot-on representation of the beverage, though quite messy and best eaten with utensils over a plate or napkin.
