Prompt service thru the drive thru at 7:15am. The speaker doesn't work but it still has an old menu on it to view before getting to the window. We only ordered 2 donuts but they were both fresh and delicious. Apple fritter had plenty of apple bits inside and had a perfect glaze on the outside. The Boston creme had plenty of custard inside and a nice chocolate top. Chocolate not overly sweet and custard is delish. Might have to avoid tim Hortons and get my weekly donut from here instead.

It just doesn't get better than this classic campus coffee shop. With an old-school counter where you can watch the chefs whip up your sandwich to fresh baked donuts coming out by the minute, Buckeye donuts never disappoints!

My friend and I went to the other Buckeye Donuts on The Ohio State University campus previously, but wanted to try the one in the South side of Columbus. The lady at service was great in getting the donuts we wanted and more. They are great donuts, and open 24 hours a day and never close like their campus store. The South High Street location has plenty of parking. I am crazy for the Blueberry donuts. I was not disappointed in the Buckeye Donuts and the service was excellent. I will be going back to the Buckeye Donuts on South High Street.

Very solid donuts here. Not the best I've ever had or anything to go crazy about, but a great old fashioned local donut shop with around 30 different options - that's alotta donuts! We got the buckeye, cream filled, and toasted coconut. All very good. The buckeye was my personal favorite with a peanut butter smear on top. Will have to stop by again when passing through to try more!

Dozen donuts multiple flavors

Great selection of donuts. I was very pleased with my order. I ordered though Uber Eats, and the box was taped up nicely.

Finally decided to figure out where to park to stop here and try their donuts. Found parking on a side street where the college housing was. As we neared the entrance, we saw one handicap parking space to the left of the entrance. So nice they have that! The donuts were good, and still fresh (it was a Sunday afternoon). The best donut I had was the apple fritter. It was the lightest, least greasy one I've ever had. The buttermilk (which is usually my favorite donut), was my least favorite of the ones we tried. It didn't have buttermilk flavor and tasted more like an old fashioned donut. My hubby's favorite was the maple bacon bar. He was surprised to find it was filled with some fluffy white stuff (frosting?), but he said it worked really well. His least favorite was the cinnamon sugar one. The red velvet was tangy and weird, so much so that we threw it away. The devils food was decent. Overall the donuts were good classic style donuts, but definitely not worth going out of the way for. The service was great. The gal helping us was friendly and really patient while we all figured out what we wanted.

The best doughnuts in the city! The cake doughnuts are incredible! They keep moist for a few days also. Quick, hometown service!

good stuff and cheap, the building is run-down and lots of weirdo's lurking around the parking lot, but worth it!

Picked up two breakfast sandwiches using online ordering. Delicious and made with real eggs…read morescrambled with cheese. I got a gluten free roll +$1 and it was pretty good. Very polite staff and looked like a nice spot to sit and enjoy a meal and drinks. Would return!

Located right on High St in the heart of the Short North, there is a very limited parking lot and…read moreon street parking. Head to the side door, as you will order first and then find a seat. This can be tricky because there seems to always be out the door, but most patrons understand the assignment and turnover goes quickly. I recommend searching the current menu online so you are ready as soon as you get to the register. This place appears to always be busy and bustling with people. We ordered the Country Scramble, Pancakes, and an Egg Sandwich. Drinks were hot apple cider, hot cocoa, and a Blackberry Fizz. All the food was delicious and are def the highlight. There is self serve coffee and soda(and water I believe although the person who got up to investigate for our table couldn't seem to find it). Honestly, the service is not my jam and why I dropped off a star. They seemed to be serving mimosas, wine, and Bloody Mary's in the line while you waited but the gal that was overseeing the area didn't really make eye contact so we didn't bother with that. Register was friendly and knowledgeable. But then the service gets tricky. There are no dedicated servers / bussers. Just people doing both. So many times you will find a group of people waiting for a table that needed to be cleared. We waited for the table to be cleared and no one was wiping the tables down, just removing dirty dishes. Our table was terribly sticky from the prior patrons but since you don't have a dedicated server, no one was coming back to take care of that. And lord help you if something wasn't right or you needed attention. We had no tableware or napkins and had to take them from another table. One of our meals took 10 more minutes than everyone else's so then our food was cold as we tried to be polite to the person who did not get food (but who do you inquire with?!). And if you wanted something else (another drink, or a pastry), you were going to have to wait in the line again. The food was good, but probably not a place I would return.
