Best damn donuts I’ve ever had from anywhere! Even though I’m glad to be rid of New York City, I will always miss these donuts.

Many Attitudes of Dennis

I chose this place randomly as it was the first thing Uber Eats showed me when I looked for desserts. Although price is an issue for me, I’m limiting it to just the Donut World fees (and none of the added Uber Eats fees). It’s weird that they offer a 1/2 dozen deal for $11.50 (which is comparable to Dunkin Donuts — 6 Boston Kremes cost $11), but then Donut World charges a surcharge for basic donuts like jelly & Boston Kreme. So $2 a donut turned into nearly $3 a donut. And I really do apologize for leaving this low rating review because I really do love giving rave reviews (when deserved). I have to be truthful and transparent: I did not enjoy these donuts. I wish I had ordered 6 Boston Kreme for DD. The biggest issue I have with DW donuts is that they do something I’ve never seen done before (and IMO it’s not a good something): the jelly donut and Boston Kreme donut are ring donuts with filling in the center hole—the filling is not encased INSIDE the donut—it is just filling the hole, which is cool for aesthetics but horrible for functionality: As soon as you take a bite, or maybe even as soon as you pick donut up, all the filling drops out. SPLAAT. Look at the accompanying photos for this review and you’ll see a big glob of jelly and a big glob of Kreme. And that means, the extra fee I got charged for the jelly and the Kreme, I didn’t even get to taste it because it all fell out! I don’t see myself eating at or from DW again. Out of the three flavors I ordered, the apple crumb was the best, but the song by Meatloaf says 2 out of 3 ain’t bad—not 1 out of 3. A .333 success average is great in baseball, but not so much when it represents how much enjoyment you derived from a food order.

Quick and easy service. Donuts were freshly made and delicious. Will be coming back next time I am in the area to try another flavour off their expansive list.

This place was the bomb dot com.Parking: The lot should be full, because this place is awesome.Kid-friendliness: Bring your kids. They'll be able to officially say they had a good childhood.

I was craving doughnuts last night and went to this establishment for the first time and let me tell you... it was DELIGHTFUL. The gentleman (owner maybe?) was uber nice, the tea that I had really hit the spot, the doughnuts were DELICIOUS (MASSIVE shout out to the yumminess that is the Froot Loop doughnut!), both types of fried Oreos were just... perfection, and the place itself was clean and inviting. Highly recommend. If I lived in the area, I'd have a huge problem on my hands with how often I'd come here. ?

Cool donut shop with lots of options. All the donuts are either old fashioned or devil cake but the toppings are ENDLESS. Tons of combinations to choose from, or create your own. Service was excellent and the guy taking our order was so patient as we went through all the options and kept changing our minds every time we saw something new. The girl making the donuts was super fast and good at her craft. You can watch them put everything together from behind the glass wall. Not too pricey (we paid $30 for 8 gourmet options.) Extra bonus for Star Wars lovers, as the owner is a fan and there is a whole wall of paraphernalia.

The donuts are absolutely delicious as are the milkshakes. However, I have to agree with a few other reviews concerning the customer service. One barely gets a greeting or a smile upon entering. No "thank you for coming," no,"hope to see you again soon." No hello or goodbye. No one is asking to be greeted with bells and whistles but common greetings are essentially non existent here.The servers often seem annoyed when customers (children) are deciding what they'd like to order. As one previous reviewer stated, servers are impatient and not very helpful. The choices, while beautiful in appearance, can be overwhelming but the servers offer no real assistance. They seem to want to get the order complete, get the money owed and be rid of the customers. Such behavior borderlines on rude. One never has the feeling that the customer is appreciated here, AT ALL.My daughter actually left our last visit saying, "that lady wasn't very nice, Daddy." This kind of experience has happened on several occasions and the attitude consistent among a few servers...so one has no choice but to consider this a systemic issue with the place (not isolated incidents).If my kids didn't beg me to take them to donut world , I would not return. And probably won't after our latest trip.(Friday 11/3 around 4:30-5 to answer owner’s question)
