Best donuts in the northern metro area. They have huge apple fritters. My son loves nutty donuts, I love apple fritters. Service is quick. On weekends they could close early if they sell out. read more

Avon Donuts Inc - Fruity Peebles Donut - Donuts Near Me - Pontiac, Michigan

This place has very limited hours, so when is open you really should stop. It will be your chance to try some of the best donuts in Oakland County. At least that's what the signs say. Personally, they're dunkers are delicious, they're sour cream is on point. Where I had an issue was their cream filled. The cake itself was delicious but the cream had a floral note which I had a hard time getting past. I truly hope it was a secret ingredient. The appearance outside seems outdated, but the inside is your typical donut shop, very comfortable and very welcoming. I will give the cream filled donuts another try. I will update my review if I need to. read more

First time at this business and had a bit of a hit and miss with my order of four donuts. The donuts themselves were good but one of the four donuts I ordered was effectively a half donut and looked like it had been broke in half. The person putting the donut in my bag had to have seen this and should never have done this or alternatively gave me a full donut to go along with the half donut. I would have given this business four stars but I ended up taking half off, similar to my half off donut I got from this business. read more

I was reading Yelp's top 50 donut shops in the US. We were visiting Pontiac and there was Avon on the list. So, we had to try it! Super fast service, great selection and the donuts and small cinnamon roll were delicious! We sat in a stool, looked out the window and enjoyed our donuts. read more

I was in last week and I was waiting in line for my turn then I noticed the the female work had helped someone who wasn't their turn yet because the worker just helped the first person in front of her. Her co-worker noticed and said " actually this person was first" she then said to her co-worker that she didn't care and on top of that when it finally got to my turn she had okay service and used a lot of foul language. I got home to enjoy the donuts and they were good read more

Fantastic donuts. Friendly staff and locals- get there early for the famous and fabulous Apple Fritters! Easy in and out off of N Woodward. read more

I came in last Friday with my son to get some donuts and at the time it was pretty busy but me and my son decided to stay and wait but while waiting we noticed a female worker just dancing in the back and looking like she wasn't even paying attention to any of the customers and then when we finally got up for our turn she had a foul mouth and kept swearing even though my son was around. But overall the donuts were good but the service wasn't there read more

Wow is all I can say to describe this place. I didn't think Michigan had a great doughnut scene, but man was I wrong. This place rivals some of the best doughnut places in Portland and Chicago that I've had. Hands down the best doughnut spot in Michigan. Everything they make is fresh, knowing that you need to get here early. If you come after 11am, you probably won't get your pick of doughnuts. If you get in early, you must get a glaze doughnut because there's a chance you can get it warm. That itself is worth getting up early for because it's incredible. Outside of the glaze, you really can't go wrong with any of their doughnuts but my favorite has to be the Glazed Red Velvet and Double Chocolate. Tried the fruity pebbles one just to try it, it's cute and great for a picture but there are better tasting ones. The service is also incredible, while this place is popular, I've never had to wait more than a minute to order. You're pretty much in & out if you want to be - they also have a few tables in there if you want to hang out a have a cup of coffee, Can't wait to keep coming to this place!! What a treat. read more

Avon Donuts Inc - Fruity Pebbles Doughnut - Donuts Near Me - Pontiac, Michigan

Doughnuts are pricey but the best I have ever had and I have had donuts from both big name chains and independent bakeries.

I've been here a couple of times. It's a small gem on Woodward Ave across from M1 concourse. They have a great selection of donuts. It's a very popular spot so get in there, make your decision, pay, then get out of the way. There are a few chairs to sit and eat your donuts and drink your coffee but I would recommend getting it to go. It's just too busy in there to really enjoy it. It's fast pace and loud environment. I can't wait to go back and try more items on the menu. read more

Avon Donuts Inc - Donuts Near Me - Pontiac, Michigan

We've started taste testing all the donuts we can find in the metro area after hockey and no one has unseated Avon as the reigning king yet!

We dropped in at 9 AM on Friday and only a couple of items were out. I was kind of worried that everything would be out given all the reviews of people lining up before the shop opens, but luckily almost everything was still in stock! We picked a half dozen donuts - some more yeasty, some more cakey. The yeasty ones are my favorite - nice sugar glaze crunch exterior combined with a soft and pillowing, yet somewhat chewy interior. And of these, the special seasonal strawberry was the best. But all donuts were delicious. You really can't go wrong with purchasing anything at Avon Donuts. read more

I typically get the gourmet donuts . I've been here quite a few times when I was working midnights at post office . Highly recommended

Freshest and best tasting donuts around!! My favorites are the chocolate crème filled and sour cream. The service is always good too.

I cannot believe I haven't reviewed Avon Donuts yet?! It's my favorite donut place ever! I love supporting small businesses, and while there is no drive thru, the wait time is shorter than the nearest Canadian shop near me that serves more than donuts. Majority of the time I have encountered nice employees, but sometimes they wear their emotions on their sleeves and you can tell they're tired or annoyed with being around people. I don't bring my kids inside much anymore since I never know if the staff will be able to pull out a smile for the little humans or not. Their work is exhausting, I'm sure, but that's the only reason I didn't give 5 stars. They work in that small space all day every day that they may forget it could be someone's first time or they only visit a handful of times each year. I had recommended it to a friend once and her first time going was not a great experience. Luckily, the donuts speak for themselves and are so delicious that they are worth going back for. I love that they have a good variety of options! Pro Tip: since it's a small, family run business be sure to check out their Facebook page to see if they're open. They may close for various holidays or events. read more

Avon Donuts Inc - a variety of donuts in a box - Donuts Near Me - Pontiac, Michigan

These were touted as best donuts in Michigan. They must have surveyed cats and dogs as their donuts are just adequate. Not even close to the best. For y to be best donuts in MI it's Sseetwater Bakery out west and Daily Dozen or Knapp in metro-Detroit. Just three stars. read more

Best donuts around town. Went for Fat Tuesday! They were hot and fresh!! Staff is very personable!!

My family and I come here all the time when we want a sweet treat in the morning. Avon donuts has some of the best and most unique donut flavors I have ever tried . Staff is very nice and patient with kids. Would recommend read more

Awesome variety of goodies. Apple fritter and cinnamon rolls are really good. Probably the best donuts shop around.

The best donut spot i've tried! The red velvet donut is amazing. I wish I lived closer, so I could come more often / before they sell out (they sell out of most donuts pretty early) (yes, they're that good!) read more

Best donuts in the state and nation! Friendly staff and various flavors. Offers coffee too. Good prices.

I've been wanting to try Avon donuts for a while now and have stopped by twice in the last week, both times they were closed due to the store being closed for a mini spring break. So, woke up early this morning and headed over there. I arrived a little after 8:00am and they were packed with a line. I believe they open at 6:00am and they still had plenty of donuts left but were low/out on some flavors already. The line moved pretty quickly though as there were two employees helping customers, I ordered a cinnamon roll donut, apple fritter, maple bacon, lemon drop and chocolate cream filled. I tried a little of every donut, and they are all equally amazing... The dough is soft and the fillings/flavor were great! Their prices are amazing as well, all of the donuts were $11. I see why Avon Donuts is so popular and will definitely be back to try other flavors! PS: I believe they close at 1pm, but they never stay open that late because they sell out, so get there early! read more

Avon Donuts Inc - Donuts Near Me - Pontiac, Michigan

I've been searching for a new donut shop, but nothing in our area really caught my eye. I've had Avon Donuts bookmarked for a while but never had the chance to make a trip - until last weekend. I woke up super early and piled my kids into the car (we're early risers) and arrived at 6:30 and there was already a line! Two people in front of us, and we got to the front to see all the yeast and cake gloriousness and it was all SUPERB. The glazed were just coming out - warm and steaming. I grabbed half a dozen of those and my kids started devouring them before we left. They were melt-in-your-mouth goodness, and dare I say it - better than Krispy Kreme! I know - blasphemous; but I'm telling you the truth. You have to visit for yourself to become a believer - I promise you will agree! The rest of the flavors we picked were equally as amazing. All delicious and not a crumb went uneaten. We will definitely return and have finally found our go-to donut shop in Michigan! read more

It's a small little shop off of Woodward in Pontiac. There's a small little café in the front part of the store. Small area to gather inside. Looks like they're pretty popular, as I saw a steady stream of people coming in before and after me. It's slim pickings after 10:45AM. They recommended coming at 8 AM when they set up all the donuts for the day. They only make every kind of donut once a day and that's it. The sour cream's were out early today. :/ I ended up getting the glazed buttermilk as a back up. They are low on many different kinds of the better and more popular donuts today, as expected with the late morning hour. My first bite was a buttermilk glazed, Red velvet glazed, blueberry glazed, custard, mini cinnamon and a mini apple fritter. The total came to $9.67. They look and smell pretty good. They do take Discover, MasterCard and Visa here. I will have to try them again if their donuts are decent. Everything wanted to try the sour cream doughnut, but that requires me having to be here much earlier. The buttermilk glazed was the first one I had tried, it was okay, not loving the flavor so much. The red velvet wasn't bad, a bit dry, the blueberry tasted the best out of all of the assorted dozen. The cinnamon roll was decent, would be better warmed up. The Apple fritter was quite dry and didn't have any hint of apple flavor to me. The custard flavor wasn't my jam, at all, rather left a chemical after taste from it actually. All in all it's not bad but not worth the 20+ minute drive each way. DG in Detroit is still my number one. read more

They are by far the best donuts around! Every day they make thousands of donuts early early in the morning and by 2:00 PM in the afternoon they close up shop because they have sold out everything to very happy customers. Don't let this very small place fool you because they are very proficient at what they do. read more

Purely amazeballs! The quality lives up to the hype. Very decadent and unique flavors, with fair pricing!

These donuts are the best around! I highly recommend! Staff is very friendly! Will definitely be going back!

Absolutely the best donuts I have had in Michigan. Their cake donuts blow all others out of the water! Whenever I visit Avon Donuts, I make sure to go first thing in the morning to make sure I have the best chance at getting my favorite donuts. I arrived at 7 am on Saturday, and there were 3 people ahead of me. When I was leaving, there were at least 6 people behind me with more people pulling into the parking lot. Avon was keeping up with the demand, and they were continuously switching out empty trays and replacing them while I was in line. I started off with a dozen and a half of their regular donuts. After those were boxed, I ended up ordering 2 of the fancy donuts as well. When you come first thing in the morning you have a great chance of getting these fancy donuts fresh out of the fryer and still warm, so it's worth it to get up early! I also ordered a 16oz. black coffee. For regular donuts, I highly recommend the red velvet donut, the cherry chip donut, the peanut butter chocolate donut, and the nutty buddy. For the fancy donuts, I always get the maple bacon donut, the bow-tie, and the mini cinnamon roll. Typically I prefer cake donuts, but these yeast donuts are amazing too. The inside of the space is small, with only 4-5 stools along the bar. When I was there everyone was taking their orders to go. A dozen donuts is $17.50 currently, and fancy donuts are an additional charge. For a dozen and a half donuts, 2 fancy donuts, and a large coffee I spent around $35 and it was worth every penny. There are so many great flavors we typically cut the donuts into quarters so we can try some of each. While these are best eaten fresh, the cake donuts hold up extremely well overnight. Whenever I am going to someone's house, or hosting brunch in my own home, my contribution is always Avon Donuts! read more

Avon Donuts !!! Joy, Joy, Joy, they're the best I've had. But don't blink or you'll miss out. They go that fast You won't be disappointed read more

These are the best donuts! Now I'm hungry. It's just a small building, with big delicious donuts

donuts are good problem is they don't stay over long. prices are low expensive, but the donuts are good. Need to have more variety.

The best donuts you will ever taste are at Avon Donuts. They have been ranked as high as the 3rd best donut shop in the United States. I beg to differ, they are number 1 as far as I am concerned. Voodoo Donuts in Portland, OR are supposed to be the best in the country. My son visited there and said Avon belongs in the same conversation with them; the only difference being the size of the donuts (V.D. Are just a little bit bigger). That notwithstanding, taste, quality, variety and freshness are comparable. Therefore Avon gets my vote as the best donuts in the country! read more

Best donuts . No comparison. Great variety- Maple Bacon, Red Velvet Melt in your mouth. Great , friendly service.

I had a good time inside and it was very good and smelled good the service was ok. But the donut with the bacon on it got me very sick. I threw up twice the day after and it was undercooked. read more
