The donut was ok, but the service sucked. Expecting a 20% minimum tip at a counter service spot just for handing someone a donut is ridiculous. When I opted out of tipping on the screen, the employee visibly huffed and puffed right at me. Guilt-tripping customers over basic counter transactions is unacceptable. read more

I could've gone here every day we were in town...and kind of wish I did so I could make my way through more of the menu! Best donuts in the area, fresh, flavorful, and a great variety of options (from your everyday enjoyable glazed to a delightful maple bacon option for the more adventurous, with plenty of choices in between). Some good coffees on the menu too (I found the Tally Bomb to be my favorite, a cold brew with vanilla and a shot of espresso). Really wanted to try a shake, just didn't get the chance, as they looked awesome. It's a sweets shop, nothing overly fancy. Line definitely goes out the door at more crowded times, as there's not a lot of space. Service is welcoming and friendly. read more

Charlie's Delights - Great start to the day (donut was buttercream-filled, coffee was the Tallycino, I think was the name) - Donuts Near Me - Alys Beach, Florida

Charlie's donuts are, in fact, delightful. We tried the blueberry and the key lime filled and they were so good we didn't get photos! We taste-tested them against another 30a donut place and Charlie's reigned supreme. The shop was bright and clean, and had some seating available. Great service, good selection, reasonable prices - we found a new favorite for a sweet treat when we're in the area! read more

My husband and I stopped here and it was the Perfect sweet stop on our bike ride! Very cute and family friendly.

Yummy donuts, average to high price, excellent service, clean and welcoming shop. We enjoyed our mixed dozen at this convenient location.

The ice cream was amazing!!! The workers were even better shout out Michelle and Deaa!! They are the best ever!!

Amazing! This was our daily breakfast stop. Acai bowl (tween approved), donut and hot and iced coffee. The ladies taking care of us are also the sweetest. See y'all next year! read more

Good selection of donuts. A little on the pricier side but in line with everything else around the area.

My family and I have been going to Alys Beach for 14 years and this was our 35 time staying here. One tradition we always have is going to Charlie's donuts. It started with the truck, then progressed into the store... charlies delights. Every time I come here, the service is horrible. I feel like the cashier is rude and a snob. Also, like why is this 30A and there is one person working in here. 15 minutes being the only ones in here, to get an acai bowl. My cousin and I ordered and we got one bowl because she was contemplating what she wanted. I then said ok "one bowl," and the cashier was mad that I didnt get one for my cousin, then took 15-20 min to make it. Then she had the audacity to yell across the restaurant and ask us to give her one. So here you go Charlie's... 1 star. The craziest part is... after she asked for a review she acted all nice to us. Like, u ain't fooling anyone twin. oh btw the donuts are nice tho read more

Disappointing experience. The shop was empty, with no pastries or options available. The service felt low-energy, and the staff seemed uninterested, almost like they wanted to shut the place down. Unfortunately, not a place I'd return to. read more

The waitress was very rude and curt until I gave a tip when we went there yesterday morning. Not a very pleasant experience. The rustic vibe of their food truck was also gone in the new shop. Donuts were mediocre and similar to most little cheap donut shop donuts ....just overpriced because of the location. She also started vaping while fixing the chairs outside. I was a bit confused since so many other reviews noted how friendly and professional the staff was. The extra icing on the chocolate covered was nIce though. Underwhelmed and disappointed. read more

Service clearly was velvety customer oriented and pleasant. The donuts are fresh and tender; both the yeast and cake! My preference would be less icing... for me the yeast donuts are extremely sweet. I would love to see long John's without filling. read more

The quality has taken a big hit. I think they have grown to so many locations they have lost their history. Just another donut shop. I would drive 24 miles round trip to get donuts each day. So it pains me to say that Charlie's has lost their way to mass production. read more

Great service tasty treats. Our regular spot was closed during our visit this week. I'ce cream doughnuts Kids can even get a sample ice cream. Lots of flavors to choose from Coffee and other drinks such as smoothies are available. read more

Very fresh. Loved the bacon maple. Overall, did not knock my socks off but good variety and as I mentioned always fresh FYI, it's located in the back right corner of Aly's beach main square. It's kind of behind the Neat bar building .i got in line at 8:02am and when I got to the window, no cookies and cream, Reese's and 3 bacon left. If you get there after 8:15am, there will only be plain glazed left if anything. read more

Awful. Only stale tasting 2-day old donuts here. We were here before 8am and all they had left was chocolate and glazed left. The glaze was all melted off the donuts and they tasted like that were made at least a day or 2 ago. Don't waste your money or time here. Go somewhere that makes quality donuts! read more

Stopped in here after a hike for a little reward. The sour cream donut was fantastic. I haven't had one like that in quite a while. The iced lattes were also a nice surprise. Make sure you get here early, because they do run out. read more

Charlie's Donut Truck has great donuts!! Everyone enjoyed their donuts, so 5 stars from my family and I. They sell the donuts from 6:30am until they sell out. Many people recommended getting there early, but we got there at 8:30 and were able to get every donut on our list. Enjoy your donuts and your vacation read more

My husband and I always stop by Charlie's Donut Truck for some donuts and coffee on our last day of vacation! Since we're already up early for check-out we make it a priority to get some donuts before hitting the road. Los Guidry's Thoughts and Recommendations: - Come by early! If you're in the area during peak-season (summer, holidays, etc.) plan to be here as early as you can because the donuts will sell out fast. During low season like the end of April, we showed up around 10AM and there were plenty of flavors to choose from. - Donuts donuts donuts! I'm not the biggest donut lover but I can appreciate a good donut. These donuts are fluffy, light, and never greasy. They have unique flavors as well as traditional flavors (Examples include: Red Velvet, Birthday, Cinnamon , Oreo, Glazed with Chocolate Sprinkles, and Maple Bacon). - Location is everything. If you have time grab your donuts and coffee and enjoy them sitting on the lawn right out front of the donut truck. There's a large green pasture with palms all around the perimeter. It's the perfect for the kids to run around or eat donuts with a view. read more

*A business that is respectful of personal choice and freedom* Everyone needs to try a Charlie's Sour Cream donut in their life. That's all. But really... these donuts are incredible. During our week in 30A we had Charlie's 3 times and loved each and every donut we tried. The coffee was also great. read more

Yummy fresh donuts and we will be back. Holland cream and red velvet are faves! Melts in your mouth crispy soft goodness.

Me and my family get this every day when we are here! These are the best doughnuts on the planet!! Fan favorites are the sour cream, cookies and cream and coconut cream but can't hate on a blueberry filled or a chocolate iced long John. Best doughnuts in 30A! So much better than the Donut Hole. read more

Awesome selection of Tillamook flavored ice cream and shakes. Conveniently located to shops and restaurants and they also have delicious donuts. The glazed and vanilla were very popular, fresh and tasty. read more

Mmm. The donuts here are large and as decadent as you would expect them to be. Every year this is our vacation splurge most every morning, because the calories don't count at the beach - right? read more

Charlie's Delights - A traditional beach breakfast in the making! - Donuts Near Me - Alys Beach, Florida

Im around this business all the time and it has kinda of a scam going on. First there always sold out! So that makes you think "Wow! This place must be good" Then you get some of the staple donuts if they have it, like a maple, glazed and maybe some crepe filled one. You get your bag of donuts and look inside. Wow! They gave me like 3 extra donuts. This happens to me every time I buy like one or 2 donuts. In short, they are always sold out because they basically give them away. Lastly, the donuts are basic and boring. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ read more

Best donuts in town. Best coffee in town. Have had a ton of their competitors and the food and service are out of this world relative to their dud competitors. The atmosphere isn't what it used to be with the food truck but that's a byproduct of growth. read more

Amazing sour cream donuts. We used to always get donuts from their truck early mornings. Crazy how much it has developed around here. I miss the simpler times. read more

This place has become such a tradition when in Rosemary. It's more for the experience of riding our bikes and sitting by the large green space while we eat our large and in charge donuts. Then we go for a leisurely bike ride through some of the surrounding neighborhoods to work off the pound of custard we just ate. The donuts are very good. One will usually do the trick. Get there early if you want the key lime which I recommend. read more

Went to Charlie's Truck that is located in Alys Beach and they have some tasty donuts. We got here on the earlier side of when they opened, had heard they sell out of certain donuts. We tried 3 donuts, a maple bacon, old fashioned, and a key lime. They all tasted excellent, with a ton of flavor. Really liked the Key Lime. By far the best donut choice in the area. read more

I'm not a donut gal but these were very tasty. The glazed donut was my favorite! Head there early in the morning so you have a good selection before they run out. read more

Luckily, I got here early and only had to wait for a little bit. The coffee was a 5/5. The maple bacon donut was ice cold...was it in the fridge all night? 2/5. But the Reese's donut was off the chain 5/5. So good. Everyone in line looks famous, because it's Alys Beach. I would do it again. read more

We always look forward to Charlie's Donut truck but this visit to the kiosk on 30A in Peddlers pavilion we were very disappointed by the size of the donuts. Our sour cream donuts were about half the size of normal Charlie's Donuts. Guess they are trying to make up for the lost profits while the main truck is being moved to a permanent location in Alys beach. Hard to tell from the photo but it was smaller than the coffee lid. Hate to post a bad review about a 30A landmark but, if no-one says anything, they won't fix it. read more

Great donuts, great concept. Food trucks are awesome in and of themselves, it's like a small taste of NYC, but when they sell fresh donuts...even better. They open their window early (6:30 am) and close it when they sell out. So you have to get there early. They're open Thurs-Sun. We got there at 7:30 and three kinds were already sold out: chocolate sprinkled, chocolate with nuts, and blueberry cake. They also have pastries, coffee, milk, and other cold drinks. I was sad about them being out of blueberry cake (one of my favorites). We ended up buying a dozen assorted: 3 glazed, 3 chocolate glazed, 2 cinnamon rolls (pastry), 1 cinnamon/apple filled (pastry), 1 cinnamon twist (pastry), 1 sour cream, and 1 Holland cream. The donuts were much better than the normal chain donuts, and much more heafty--the normal glazed are more caky than the chain's, and it would take almost two Krispy Kremes to equal the total mass of Charlie's. They were fresh, and they come straight from Charlie's bakery every morning. The chocolate glazed were excellent. We went to The Donut Hole yesterday, which was awesome, but Charlie's beat them with their chocolate glazed. The cinnamon/apple filled was a log. It was good, but only slightly better than an apple pie from McDonald's. The Holland cream was just a white cream filled donut, but it was good. Overall, this truck is awesome, but their donuts don't match up with those of the Donut Hole on every level. If you're staying around Aly's Beach of driving down 30A at the wee hours of the morning then you have to stop by Charlie's Donut Truck. read more

Charlie's donuts on 30A has expanded to Seacrest Beach, in addition to their famous donut truck location. Either is worth the visit, but if visiting the Seacrest Beach hut location during busy season, arrive early or they'll be sold out. I ordered several donuts, but memorable was the maple bacon raised donut, which is probably the best of its kind that I've ever had (and I've had a lot...)! If you are in the area, visit one or both locations! read more

The best donuts we've ever had!! These are hand-cut donuts with no machines used. They provide a wide variety. One of the two owners, John, is a disabled vet who was mentored years ago by a German bakery master. These guys have 7 locations and, for 30A, they drive their truck one hour to get here. Those facts reveal their dedication and passion, and that's virtue you can actually taste! Personally, this is my first time at Charlie's, though I've heard raves from others. Yesterday I tried their competition (Donut Hole) and it was like eating pastries from the grocery store, so beneath Charlie's quality. I'm told they used to have their truck right on the road, but now it's set back so you have to look a little harder. read more

My family and I get up early and ride bikes there every morning we are at the beach. We've done it as long as I can remember and its an amazing tradition.

Okay, here's the deal. Amazing donuts. Cooked an hour away. Shuttled to the rich sonovaguns in the 30A area. You need to get there early. I mean EEEEAAAARLY. Like I think I hit there around 6:30 in the morning. I brought cash, so there was no hassle. Only a few people in line before me, so I was able to get a dozen sour cream cake donuts (highly recommended) and some of the amazing jelly and creme-filled yeast donuts and cruellers. Absolutely worth every penny and lack of sleep when I was able to bring our group back some delicious morning pastries (less the ones I ate in the car with the Donut Truck-provided coffee). And I tipped the hell out of 'em. The early bird gets the donuts, my friends. Go forth and starch up! read more
