Innovative vegan donut spot in Brooklyn. The flavors are constantly changing and evolving! Upon walking in, I was greeted by a warm staff member who really took his time in explaining the available flavors; even suggested the flavors we should try. The storefront is very simplistic; lots of open space and the decor is meant to draw your eyes to the donuts. There isn't any seating except outside when the weather allows for it. We tried the blackberry mint mojito... fire. Raspberry rosé... peculiar... and brown butter pecan... classic. The donuts are tiny compared to other donut spots which might not appeal to everyone. They truly are bite sized looking. If you look at my pictures, they fit in my tiny hand. Lol. But again, flavors are so outstanding that if you don't care for a large donut, this spot is your jam. That day they were also serving a lemon pistachio cinnamon roll... amazing and I hope they add that on their menu again when the weather warms up. I did have their coffee which wasn't my favorite. But since this is a donut shop, my focus is on the donuts anyways. You must stop in and see for yourself that this spot is worth the try. read more

I don't get it.. but I heard about this spot from social media. My friend and I decided to stop by to check it out while in the area. These donuts are vegan and their menu changes weekly, so it can be a treat. The employee recommended the Cinnamon Roll ($10), so we got that. Then also added a Mini Donut ($5) in Berry Mint Mojito flavor. Since it was towards the end of the day, she also tossed in a complimentary Lemon Blueberry Poundcake Donut, which was nice. We took our donuts over to the Brooklyn Bridge Pier to enjoy since there's no seating here. The cinnamon roll was quite tiny and a bit too hard and doughy. While the regular donuts were pretty, none of it really stood out to me in terms of flavor and texture. To be honest, I don't get why the cinnamon roll made this spot popular. Also, I felt a bit deceived about the cinnamon rolls being made with sweet potato, but it's moreso in the filling than the dough. Even then, still didn't really taste it. Overall, just very expensive for the donuts and roll. read more

The donuts at Cloudy Donut were all stunningly displayed, tantalizing in their bright colors and variety. However, my husband and I were underwhelmed by the two we ordered--the guava lime and pina colada. The guava lime came with a thin slice of lime on top of the donut, but otherwise I didn't detect any lime flavor in the frosting itself. The pina colada was better, in part because it was enhanced by the coconut flakes and even sour pineapple on top. But both weren't worth the price. I can't say the yeasted donut parts were anything much better than a yeasted Dunkin Donut. Perhaps we should have ordered a sweet potato cinnamon bun instead. read more

I've heard of Cloudy Donut and finally decided to visit after a recent collab with another local bakery. Upon arriving I was surprised at the limited donut options and wondered if I had shown up on an off day or maybe they were still baking their goodies? (It was a Saturday morning) To me, it didn't seem as if they had a wide selection of doughnuts nor did I see any other pastries that I've seen pictured in other reviews. The donuts were delicately decorated, but quite mini. I didn't feel that the quality of the donut made up for its size. The establishment is spacious and clean, but they do not offer any indoor seating. However, there are a table or two outside. read more

Was walking around the area and had to stop by to check out these cute donuts. I got offered a sample donut to try out by the front desk person who was so sweet! I tried the Lemon poppy flavor and was sold on trying all other flavors lol. They're perfect bite sized pieces without being too sweet. read more

Best donuts! What a wonderful place. I went there this past Sunday for the first time. Lovely guy working there. He is enthusiastic about his treats, as he should be! read more

They may be known for their donuts, and offering 40 flavors of donuts at that, but their other baked goods also live up to the hype. In particular, the cinnamon rolls, which I didn't even know they had until I showed up one Saturday afternoon to find that they had sold out of donuts for the day. An employee could see how disappointed my friends and I looked and told us if we just waited a bit a fresh batch of cinnamon rolls would come fresh out of the oven, so we agreed to buy them. We're so glad we did. I'm an amateur baker, and am pretty proud of my at home cinnamon roll recipe-- these were good enough to make me avoid thinking "I could make these at home." It's hard to mess up fresh out of the oven cinnamon rolls though. I see a lot of reviewers noting how pricey these baked goods are--welcome to NY! You'll feel ripped off every time you step out the house. $8 per pastry is par for the course these days. I don't know if I'd wait hours in line for these, but if you can walk right up to the counter, as we did, they're definitely worth it. read more

As a non vegan, I am impressed!! It's hard to tell these are vegan or perhaps vegan desserts have come a long way in the last decade! Love all the creative flavors they offer and love supporting this small BIPOC business!! You can't go wrong the the donut flavor and their cinnamon rolls are quite popular too, esp when it's fresh from the oven! read more

Really lovely shop I ran into on a whim. The donuts are light and flavorful. Even got a free orange glazed donut to try out, such amazing service. Charming shop, will definitely pop in again when I'm in the neighborhood. read more

Stopped by chance with my son. He got a chocolate-topped donut. He said it tasted weird, so I tried a bite and the chocolate tasted like somebody mixed Mrs Meyers dish soap in. Nothing "floral" mentioned in the description, just plain chocolate. So bad. Donut places aren't art galleries, would prefer they focus on flavor over TikTok, or whatever this place is supposed to be good for. read more

Whenever I am in New York, I absolutely have to stop at cloudy donut co. The location is beautiful. I usually grab the new flavors of vegan donuts and I walked down to a park nearby and eat. These donuts are absolutely delicious. When I tell you, I crave them as soon as I get out of JFK. I highly suggest you check out this donut shop. They have a couple locations in New York and I wish they had them in my state. Whenever I enter, the staff is really sweet and welcoming. It's a beautiful treat in the summer. read more

Today I took a long trip along with my best friend to wonderful black owned vegan shop in Brooklyn. It was an amazing experience! We had the sweet potato cinnamon bun, which was like nothing I've ever tasted. The pistachio donut was top-tier, maple pecan was so savory with a hint of salt, these flavors were so robust. I tried the orange raspberry which was perfect together, the pineapple upside down cake and a blueberry black raspberry as well. Man, I recommend you to go and give this place a visit, you will not be disappointed. read more

These are some solid vegan donuts. They taste homemade and I love the fact their flavors are seasonal so it changes throughout the year! Black-owned is always a plus! read more

I was drawn to this place after seeing photos online and the fact that they are all vegan. I made the trek to Brooklyn to check out the original location. A small place meant for takeout only as there is no seating inside. No restrooms. The inside is bright and fits the cloudy theme. I found out there is no menu listing of prices. This makes it really hard to decide what/how much to buy without awkwardly asking in the middle of a busy line. The donuts are mini in size and the cinnamon squares are average size. Apparently they have drip coffee too? Again, not listed anywhere on a menu but saw someone get a cup and found out they sell basic drip coffee from a steel canister. Who knows how much it costs? The mini donuts are $4.50 and the cinnamon square is a jaw dropping $10! I was surprised at checkout that I paid just over $15 for a mini donut and cinnamon square. As for the quality... the balsamic fig donut tasted sugary sweet but didn't catch any fig flavor. The cinnamon square tasted very doughy with a very light hint of cinnamon vs a fluffy soft consistency. Disappointing. Overall, while they look pretty they were not the best vegan donuts I've had. For how expensive they are and lacking in flavor, I don't think they are worth the trip. There are way better tasting larger vegan donuts at a better price point in NYC. Would be helpful if they posted prices. read more

Absolutely amazing vegan donuts! This place blew me away. They have a wide selection of donuts, all 100% vegan--but you'd never guess it based on the texture and taste. Everything was so rich, fresh, and flavorful. I also love that their offerings change with the seasons and are based on what's locally available. That kind of thoughtfulness really sets them apart. Seating available outside. It was my first time here, and the service was just as impressive as the donuts. The staff took their time walking me through the menu, explaining the different flavors and ingredients, and made the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. Can't wait to come back! read more

Finally had a chance to circle back here since they opened in October 2022. FYI they only open on fri-sun and kind of out the way BUT I was in the neighborhood and wanted to visit on a Saturday. Love that they are black-owned and all donuts are vegan. I didn't love the price nor the flavor. Didn't add up to me. I ordered a mini donut (sugarberry) and a single donut in the flavor of blackberry mint mojito for a total of $11! HOW?! and why lol. My immediate thoughts. $4.50 for a mini donut and $6 for a single is a but much. As far as a size reference for the single donut, its similar to the size of a Dough donut. I'd probably go back to try their coffee but not pressed about the donuts unless I see a flavor that really entices me. They announce the flavors of the week on their IG and website. Definitely try it for yourself and see. read more

Very cute store, we popped in on a Saturday morning to try some of the donuts. Their flavors all looked really interesting. We got lemon vanilla bean, berry olive oil, and creme brulee. Our fave was the creme brulee, had a caramelized sugar top and cream on the inside. The other 2 tasted the same besides the decoration on top. They were good, fluffy donuts but we did not taste any flavoring in the donut/glaze besides the berry and lemon that were placed on top. The donuts are pretty pricy at almost $15 for 3 mini donuts. However, a good option if you only eat vegan. read more

I finally decided to get a Pina-Colada Donut (infused w/ rum in this frosted baked good), a Pistachio Donut & a Balsamic Fig Donut. The othes got a Pina-Colada Donut, a Peanut Butter & Jelly Donut, and Cinnamon Roll Donuts. The donuts were so good! Cloudy Donut Co. also had Blueberry Donuts, Rosemary Lemonade Donuts Chai Donuts, Creme Brulee.Donuts, etc. We will definitely be back.

My colleagues and I were excited to try Cloudy donuts' sweet digs. The aroma and flavors are on point BUT the texture of these donuts are far from soft and fluffy. The texture is more like a baguette with sweet toppings. I personally had high expectations but the texture of these donuts left a lot to be desired. My colleagues tried the smaller donuts and experienced the same with the texture. I will wait a few months before giving them a second try to update my review. read more

The donuts are very good! The texture has a perfect crisp bite while a super soft dough with eat bite! They have many different flavors to choose from and both small donuts and normal sized donuts. The downside is there is no place to sit to enjoy the near the store and the donuts are pretty expensive while the prices are not easily found on the menu or online. It was super busy when we stopped by and the taste of the donuts makes it clear why this was the case! read more

Congratulations on being the First Black Owned business in Brooklyn Heights! I've been twice now and can say that the donuts are fresh, look beautiful and are made with love. The staff is also super friendly and are passionate about what they do. The shop is very clean and the donut display is beautiful. An added bonus that they're vegan! I only gave 4 stars for the flavors. The basic flavors like powdered and cinnamon sugar have been my favorites. They're definitely a major upgrade from Dunkin and other local shops. I was underwhelmed by my speciality flavors. The maple pecan glaze was just okay and the pistachio lacked pistachio flavor. I would be open to exploring other flavors but their location is out the way for me and they have limited hours. If you're in the area I'd stop by and give them a try. If they're on your list make sure you plan accordingly because they do sell out. You can call ahead to preorder but there's a minimum amount you have to order. read more

Cloudy Donut Co is amazing! Their donuts are light and airy, yet somehow incredibly filling. And the flavors! So many interesting choices coming out of their oven, I already know I have to go back and try more. I had the strawberry lemonade, which was so moist and flaky, with a delicious lemon frosting that was the perfect level of tart. I also had the balsamic fig, and recommend it to anyone who likes a donut that pushes the boundary between sweet and savory. It was easily my favorite, I can't wait to get another. The only downside is that they don't have more hours, but I hope they'll be open more often in the warmer months! The only other downside is that I won't fit into my clothes pretty soon, but totally worth it for such amazing donuts. Make the trip to visit this place, you won't be disappointed! read more

I'm so happy Cloudy Donut is now in Brooklyn! I've been looking forward to the opening of this black-owned, vegan donut shop for months, and the donuts and other sweet treats surpassed all my expectations. The lines have been down the block, and they sell out quickly, but they are absolutely worth the wait. We were only able to try one donut and two cookies on grand opening weekend since we showed up an hour after opening and that was all they had left, so we made sure to come earlier this weekend to make sure we could try more. After two weekends, we've tried six different donuts, two types of cookies, and their cinnamon roll. Everything was excellent, and I love that the donuts are light, fluffy, and sweet without being too sweet. So far, my favorite donuts are the cookies and cream, pistachio, and berry sugar, and the cinnamon roll is equally fantastic. I can't wait to try even more! read more

Highly recommend visiting if you're in Brooklyn or just visiting, you won't be disappointed. Lastly prepare to spend $$ because these aren't regular donuts, good, healthy ingredients, time & love is put into each donut. Tell a friend to tell a friend! read more

As someone with a dairy allergy, this place has been on my to try list for a while and I can say I am happy I finally did try it! The store is very cute and in a lovely neighborhood that offers views of the water which is great after eating a sweet treat. The donuts were moist and very tasty. I ordered the lemon, rose berry, and coconut. I would say that the coconut and rose berry were both good but fairly standard. The lemon however was AMAZING. So good! My partner ordered the pistachio, berry, and lemon. Both of us agreed the lemon was the best so definitely recommend that! The staff were super friendly and helpful. I wasn't sure which to try and they recommended the best as the lemon and they did not miss. read more

I've been to Cloudy Donut twice - I highly recommend the pistachio donut for pistachio lovers. My other love is lemon but I like my lemon tart and a lot of places disappoint by adding too much sugar. Cloudy Donut does a really good job by not over sweetening them. I know they can make them more tart. I would love to purchase a lemon lovers box with both creamy and tart lemon items. They do an excellent job with poundcake - you want to get the sweet potato pound cake and the lemon blueberry pound cake. I received an email about an olive oil lemon cake and went running to find out it would be available over the weekend lol I will be heading back for it. I've only been to the Spring St location but will make my way over to the Brooklyn location shortly. Customer service is excellent and the space is very clean. read more
