We’re no stranger to Cardigan. They catered 200 DELICIOUS donuts for our wedding! These guys are the real deal.Amazing donut delivery service! Ordering system is fantastic - you can pick flavors to gift or have them select (or a combo!) I’ve sent them as little surprise gifts to so many people over the years - just to perk up someone’s day. You can include a free message. I hope they never change and I wish them many years of continued success!
Absolutely divine! The strawberry maple French toast donut is 10/10. Great service- super friendly staff and great recommendations.

Like a previous reviewer (Nicole N, from June 2023), I'm not thrilled with the doughnuts in this business. Their business seems based more on hype (they know how to play the marketing game) than an actual good product. I purchased 6 doughnuts, trying for a variety. The chocolate icing they use does not have much chocolate flavor. The underlying flavor of their batter - be it for cake doughnuts, raised doughnuts, or fritters, is pretty lacking, and the texture isn't great either. Some just had an off flavor - maybe it was time to change the oil they're fried in. Their doughnuts LOOK ok, but that's not what I value most in a doughnut. And they're pretty expensive per doughnut. Their location is also not convenient. Unless you need to be in the area for something else, you're going to spend a lot for parking and have a trek to get to this business. They are better than supermarket doughnuts usually are, but those would only get a 1 star.

If Cardigan Donuts has a million fans, I am one of them. If Cardigan Donuts has one fan, that me. If Cardigan Donuts has no fans I must be dead. If they have a hater, we ride at dawn.These little treats are gods gift to Minneapolis. Never in my 24 years of life have I tasted a more incredible delicacy.

My favorite donuts in the Twin Cities. While yes, I feel it's a tad pricey, I also feel it's worth it. I used to stop by a lot more when I lived in the area, which was nice. Especially on the bad weather days when things were slow and they'd offer deals to clear out product. I was once offered a dozen for the price of one. Sadly I declined since I was on a diet and had no business being there in the first place. Their raised & cake donuts are so soft, and moist. My favorites/ recommendations are always the: glazed donuts, glazed old fashioned, powdered, vanilla glazed with sprinkles (raised), French crueller, and anything with coconut That said, everything is delicious so you can't go wrong!
I've been to Cardigan Donuts both times I visited Minneapolis. Their donuts were amazing! So fresh and tasty. Not overly sugary sweet, soft and light texture. Perfect size, not too small or too large. The flavors we've tried include: glazed cake, blueberry cake, chocolate iced cake with sprinkles, jam filled powdered, cinnamon sugar cake, old fashioned glazed and apple fritter glazed. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the blueberry cake but they were all delicious. The service was great both times as well. The staff members were friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back next time in town.

Literally best donuts I’ve ever had! Raised donuts are soft and pillowy, cake donuts are crunchy on the outside and soft and moist inside.

The lemon poppyseed old fashioned and the coffee cake donuts were both delicious!! My main issue is that they do not have a restroom. They serve coffee which goes through many people and it’s insane to me they don’t have a restroom for customers. Especially as they have seating and a fireplace to encourage people to stay. And the City Center building they are in has no public restrooms either so there is no where to go. Be prepared.

Ordered through door dash and a few donuts were replaced without any notice or notes. Called the bakery and they were very professional and quick about fixing the issue. Highly recommend this bakery!
