I'm a pretty critical person when it comes to donuts. I had a personal favorite donut shop from back home before coming here. I would say this shop beats it. Personally, the Bavarian cream was the best donut I think I ever had.Aside from taste, the staff were chill and awesome at their jobs. Definitely recommend!
Looking for somewhere to kill some time of a rainy Seattle afternoon and found this place in a Belltown to-do/to-eat list. It did not disappoint and I loved that bookshelves lined the walls. Gave it quite an amazing ambiance. Doughnuts were delicious!!
We went here for breakfast based on our tour guide’s recommendation on our previous visit to Seattle. Walked here from our hotel downtown near the market. Was an easy walk. Since there was four of us, we just got a dozen donuts and coffees. The donuts are dense and moist. Probably the favorite was the raspberry glazed old fashioned. They are filling so we had 2 left when we were finished. There is seating available and the atmosphere is quiet and relaxing.
Great donuts. My favorites are the Bavarian Cream or the simple yeast risen glazed donut.Even though the coffee is fresh ground and brewed on site, there are better cups to be had elsewhere.The staff is friendly though and the upstairs loft area is great for a few hours of remote work.
Had donuts from here while visiting from out of town. Definitely get the raised donuts as they were very good. They were somehow both dense, but fluffy. Never had a donut like that before. The cake ones were pretty basic though.
Came about an hour before closing as this place was highly rated. I got the top four donuts remaining which ranged from glazed old fashioned, glazed, chocolate, and maple flavored donuts. The glazed old fashioned was supposed to be what they're known for, but honestly it was our least favorite. It had a stale aura and after tastes were old oil/grease. The regular glazed was sweet, had a nice bounce and chew to the dough, but it also had a distinct oil after taste. The chocolate was good. You can really taste the chocolate in it. The maple was extremely sweet, and provided nice bounce as well, just not as good as the regular glazed.At just under $12 for four donuts, I wish they didn't have an old oily flavor to some of them. Or at least discount them after a certain hour for lack of freshness. They stores library vibe is chill. Didn't try any coffee or drinks so I can't speak on that. Fresh donuts are obviously the best, but if you're gonna sell them all day, the taste depreciates.
An easy walk from our hotel at the Mayflower. Not a big donut lover but my kid is. He ate 3 and insisted we had to return the next day. I had 1/2 of an old fashioned and thought it excellent. The next day I had a glazed yeast donut and it was the best yeast donut I have ever eaten. And the coffee is excellent.
Amazing employees work here!The donuts are so soft ❤️I literally work a block away from this location and I was picking up my lunch nearby and instantly got a craving for a donut. I get inside and I’m about to pay when I realized I forgot my wallet in my office. ??The women that was checking me out at the cashier, without hesitation told me it was okay and I didn’t have to pay. I was so shocked and so overwhelmed with emotions, that I quickly ran to my office, grabbed some cash, and returned back to the shop to pay for my donuts and leave a nice tip. The employee’s eyes lit up with joy! Their kindness is contagious and I’m so grateful for these employees ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Best donut shop in Seattle that I’ve tried - and I went to like half a dozen of em during my recent trip. Great atmosphere, excellent tasting donuts (huge and well-priced) and super friendly staff. Cannotnot recommend enough.
Hand-forged doughnuts and coffee that rivals some of the best examples of both from across the country. Donuts aren’t as exotic as places like Voodoo and coffee isn’t as curated as places like SteamDot, but this place does both of those just about as good and they do it in an amazing, airy glass-fronted building right outside of downtown. Watch the monorail sail part outside while you feast on the well-made sugar and caffeine concoctions.
