Almost all the people that work here are good looking, which is unusual for a donut place, haha! Donuts are cut into hexagons so they fit together when cut with no waste, Smart! All the donuts tasted good, I tried six of them. An unusual flavor is caramel.... They are known for their super inexpensive brewed coffee, which my son says is pretty good. The vibe there is pretty nice because everyone seems to enjoy their job so they are all in a good mood!

We tried a handful of different donuts and they were all spectacular.

Let's just say that Gibson's Donuts is definitely a must try when you're in Memphis.

I have been a customer of Sam's Donuts for approximately 10 years, and it is disappointing to say…read morethat my experience has changed significantly over the past 18 months. In the past, the donuts were consistently fresh and excellent. Unfortunately, the quality and customer service no longer seem to be what they once were. The employee behind the counter has been rude and dismissive, and I have also noticed that donuts are often packed into the box so tightly that they become crushed or damaged. I have also had concerns about proper hygiene, particularly regarding whether the same gloves used to handle money are also being used to handle the food. Today was my final visit. I ordered four chocolate éclairs, three cinnamon rolls, and one sprinkled donut. Two of the éclairs were unusually small--closer to the size of a small donut--and only two of the three cinnamon rolls I ordered were actually placed in the box. I was charged $30 for the order. Unfortunately, everything tasted stale, as though it had been sitting for at least a day. What was especially frustrating was seeing two cinnamon rolls placed on top of the éclairs, which contributed to the items being crushed and poorly presented. Had I noticed this while the order was being prepared, I would have simply left without purchasing it. After being a customer for 10 years, I am genuinely disappointed to have to say this, but I will not be returning. Based on my recent experiences, I would encourage others to carefully consider the quality, freshness, service, and value before spending their money at this location. The experience is no longer what it used to be.

I had been told repeatedly that completely fermented sourdough bread should not have the same effect on me.

I will be back to pick up more bread and sourdough bagels.

We hit up Midtown Donuts all three days during our recent visit to Memphis. On day one, we had a…read morefew donuts and donut holes but by day three, we had donuts, donut holes, muffins, and kolaches. We love red velvet donuts, and we tried all three varieties that they had. The one with cream cheese on top was absolutely delicious. We also enjoyed the frosted donut holes, both the strawberry and chocolate, as well as their lemon glazed doughnut. It was cute that they threw in a few donut holes to fill the boxes where they could. The chocolate muffin, apple fritter, and cinnamon roll (butter roll) were quite good as well. The kolaches were delicious. We loved that they had a sweet Hawaiian bread wrapping the sausages. This place was a crowd pleaser from the adults to the kids. On the last day we were there, the staff said "see you tomorrow" and unfortunately, we had to say that we were leaving town. But, we'll definitely be back when we visit Memphis again.

I stopped by Midtown Donuts in Memphis because the donuts in the display looked delicious, and I…read morewas excited to finally give the place a try. When I walked in, the store appeared clean for the most part, and everything looked fresh. I ordered a kolache first and then decided to get a red velvet donut because it looked so good. However, before the employee could put the donut in the bag, I noticed a large horsefly flying around inside the display case, landing and flying around the donuts. I was instantly disgusted and reacted immediately. The employee seemed to acknowledge it, but her reaction felt more performative than genuinely concerned. It didn't seem to faze her, even as another customer who had already ordered coffee was also watching what was happening. I understand that bakeries and donut shops with open display cases can occasionally have issues with insects, and I'm not saying people shouldn't visit this business. Everyone can make their own decision. But personally, once I saw a horsefly flying around food that was about to be served to me, I couldn't bring myself to knowingly eat it. What surprised me even more was that after seeing my reaction, the employee still asked if I wanted the kolache. At that point, I had completely lost my appetite and simply walked out. I was genuinely looking forward to trying Midtown Donuts, and it's disappointing that my first experience ended this way. Unfortunately, because of what I witnessed, I won't be returning.

So I came back! This time, I decided to try some of their sides... because it is morning... and I…read moredidn't feel like having a simple breakfast sandwhich from my job. So... aside from getting an iced latte with a pump of mocha syrup, I decided to try their potato hash and a side of bacon. Both were delicious. The bacon wasn't cooked hard so I don't know if that is a deal breaker for you guys but I like mine with a decent chew and not all crunch. The potatoes were cooked with bell pepper and it was so good to me. The bell peppers weren't undercooked and everything had a good balance. My only take away was that I started to feel like it became greasy once I made it to the last few scoops, but thankfully, it wasn't like it was swimming in oil/grease. I also took note that despite it being a decent line, they were functioning fluidly so I really didn't feel like my wait was long at all. Gotta love sufficient service. I believe I spoke on the decor before, but if I haven't, the place is very quaint with outdoor seating. It gives off a local bakery with a hint of modern. Another thing I like is that you can see them prepping some of the baked goods as you wait.

I have to agree with the other reviewers. I am from NY, so had set my expectations accordingly,…read morethese bagels were outstanding and exceeded them! The bagels have a perfect toast to the outside and the flavor you'd expect from quality, homemade bagels. They also offer many sandwiches served on those bagels. This was the closest sandwich I've had to an NY bacon, egg and cheese outside of NY. In addition to the bagels, their coffee drinks are phenomenal. There are also a huge variety of pastries, but we didn't try those to comment on quality. I believe they just opened a second location as I'm writing this review, I see nothing but big things for this place. They can be very busy and it can get a little tight, but that is a minor gripe.
