    Can't eat the price of their donuts. $1.25 each and that includes tax. They only make one kind of donut and it's a light one, glazed and is served made to order, warm and melty. On a Sunday morning in June the wait time was about 30 minutes, but it's air conditioned inside if you can find a seat. The counter people are nice and the donuts are light and fluffy. Many customers were getting multiple dozens ($13 per). They've been doing it here since 1939, so obviously what they're doing is working. No wifi and no call ahead orders. I'd return here for sure, but next time I'd order more to take home.

    My sister was raving about this place so we had to try their donuts. They specialize in just one type of donut, glazed. And it's not your regular donuts. The batter they use is different than Krispy Kreme or Dunkin donut. I want to say it's similar to funnel cake. The donuts are delicious but I would recommend eating them the same day. If you leave them for the next day, they become soggy unlike KK or DD's donuts. However, if you own an air fryer, pop them in there, it will bring the donuts back to life. Oh also, I would come during non busy hours. Otherwise be prepared to stand in line for about an hour or so.

    This cash only donut establishment is one of the best in NC! I swung by the boardwalk with some friends today and got Britt's. I've had their donuts before but today's hit different. They were light, hot, and fresh. My friends say they could have eaten more than one!

    WOW I have to say.. The hype is real, this has to be the best donut I have ever had! Served warm, and ready to eat. The dough has a unique flavor and chew, and the glaze is not over the top it's just right. Great donuts here!!

    Cash only and 100% worth it!!! They do one type of donut. They are light, fluffy, and a must try spot in Carolina Beach. Line can be long at times, but they're quick and efficient.

    These were some of the best donuts I've ever had! They had a slight crisp on the outside and a light and fluffy inside. The glaze was light on the donuts and they were easy to eat. They are definitely best when eaten fresh. They are pretty sweet, but definitely worth it. This place has a line sometimes, so be prepared to wait 5-10 mins possibly. They are worth the wait and recommended if you're looking for tasty donuts.

    The best Donuts in NC! You can't eat just one. Get a dozen and eat them hot. It's a Summertime tradition in Carolina Beach!

    Made fresh, simple glazed donuts, delicious. We went around 7-8ish pm and the line wasn't as bad. We paid and waited maybe 15 mins to get the donuts.

    When you need your donut fix, this is the place. Hot glazed donuts right out of the grease. Unhealthy, sure! Satisfying, yes please!

We arrived around 4:30 and beat the dinner rush, which gave us a beautiful evening outside. From the moment we sat down, it felt less like going to a restaurant and more like coming home after a long day at the beach. Our servers, Abigail and Allie, were both wonderful--friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome. Service like that is getting harder to find these days, and they deserve a lot of credit. We started with the fried okra, and there were barely any left by the time I thought to take a picture. Crisp, hot, and some of the best we've had. The Black and Red wings were excellent too--full of flavor with just the right amount of kick. The fries were seasoned and cooked just right. The outside seating has a great atmosphere, and even the little details stood out. The place was clean, including the restroom, and seeing their 97.5 sanitation score posted proudly gave us even more confidence. They even had a Venus flytrap outside--only in Carolina Beach can a restaurant have its own bug patrol on duty. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. We'll definitely be back.

Not only do they not price the ice cream by scoop (so you get LOTS of ice cream), but they make their waffle cones fresh! You do get to try any flavors you're interested in. They even have some flavors that are vegan (made with oat milk)! We also got a tootie fruity donut that was good, and tasted like cake. But I still believe that the ice cream should be given their due! 8/10 - if you love sweets, you will love this place!

Donut station was separate from rest of the store but I liked the clear window to see in. You can watch the process. She was meticulous at how she made them. Gloves on etc. Location: very convenient! Off the main road coming on to the island and it will be to your right. It's great to have a second option for coffee! They offer drip, cold brew AND espresso. There is a private lot with ample parking. Little tables outside with seating of you want to hang and have your food and drink. I ordered iced latte. The espresso is strong so ask for extra milk if you like a light latte but it's a good earthy espresso. I will be back here for morning coffee. Donuts were amazing. I got plain ones but I know my kids will love this place especially with the design your own version. Some enhancements maybe later would be good: tablet ordering vs paper. Maybe even to print at the donuts station and prepay vs pay at one register. A treat bin outside if allowed. Otherwise it's not deal breaker for me! I'll be back. Welcome to CB!!

This is a tight shop with a counter that you place your order. If you haven't been there before, the staff explains about their ice cream and how to order.

We always make sure to stop by to see what cool treasures Joe & Ann have each year when we spend our much needed week at Carolina Beach. They have owned the store for 31 years! We luckily stumbled upon them last year on our walk to the Boardwalk. Joe is always so friendly and happy to answer questions about the beautiful jewelry in the front case. He also gives great recommendations for restaurants and sites to check out for the week. There is literature posted around the store with more details about their unique pieces that they find during their off season travels. There is a wide selection of pretty cork bags. It would be difficult to pick just one! They also have a large selection of Storrs hypoallergenic jewelry. My daughter wanted every single necklace but ended up settling for two colorful beaded bracelets for $8.00 each that were more in her price range. She has 100 of them already but she was determined that she had to have two more to add to her collection! Squigleys is a great shop to find a cool gift for yourself or a friend at any price range. They have a unique section of tchatchke ranging from funny magnets, lots of quirky wall art, geodes, wooden carvings, fine jewelry, teen bracelets, anklets, rings, and a few racks of miscellaneous clothing. PLUS ICE CREAM DOWNSTAIRS!! Thank you Joe and Ann!!! We will see you again next year!
