The best donuts we had in Portland and no wait to get them. These were fluffy soft dough pillows sent from heaven. Voodoo is definitely an experience and Blue Star are gourmet for sure, but when it comes to an honest to goodness ring of dough, this is the place to go. read more

Stopped by with my little family this past Saturday weekend while we were running some errands downtown, and definitely wasn't disappointed. When you walk in, donuts are front and center. The cake donut with sprinkles was loved by my little one (and me!) and the apple fritter was full of yummy apples! Will definitely stop by again when I'm in the area! read more

If you don't feel like walking 4 or 5 blocks down the street to Blue Star Donuts but you have a sweet tooth, I would advise you to go to Rite Aid to get a Little Debbie's product instead of Coco Donuts. You may as well. And you don't have to leave a tip for them to do what they get paid to do. At Rite Aid, the cashier will say hi back when you say hi. At Coco Donuts, they will just stand at the counter, like the curly brunette woman did when i stopped by during lunch. I said hi. She looked at me and said nothing. She just looked like she'd rather be dead. I told her what I wanted and she put it in a bag and put it on the counter. Then she turned the card scanner in my direction and as she walked away I realized she wasn't mute when she said "this requires a confirmation and you're good to go." No thank you. No have a nice day. No pleasantry typical when a customer enters a tiny establishment. When an establishment is tiny it's even more important to be pleasant to the customers. I was completely turned off, then when I took a few bites of the donut, I deeply regretted not walking up to Blue Star Donuts. Coco Donuts aren't flavored with whatever the flavor of the donuts are supposed to be. The donuts taste like sugar. I had brought two donuts. After taking 2 bites of one, I bit into the other ( a buttermilk donut) and was equally disappointed. I threw them both away. Chocolate donuts are supposed to taste like Chocolate, not sugar. So, after work, I went to Blue Star. It was crowded like always, as the quality of the donuts are superb. I got a passion fruit and vanilla cake donut. Do you know what it tasted like? Passion fruit and vanilla. It didn't taste like sugar. I also got a Raspberry Rosemary buttermilk. It tasted like Raspberry and rosemary. It didn't taste like sugar. Tomorrow I have to bring in treats to work, and I will bypass Coco Donuts to go to Blue Star Donuts. I'd go to Rite Aid before I go to Coco Donuts ever again. read more

Went here to have a coffee with a friend and did enjoy the ambiance and accessable tables. They were also very friendly about bringing in a service dog. We just got latte's, I would say your average tasting latte, pretty good. I wish alternative milks weren't extra, that always bugs me. I also wished that they had one gluten free donut available but I had known that before coming, I would visit more often if GF options were available. read more

Great cup of coffee. Donuts? Just ok. I happen to live nearby what I think is the best donut shop on Earth (The Donut Shop, in Folsom, CA) and this place is a step down from The Donut Shop. Love the Neopolitan ice cream color scheme. read more

First off, I like Coco's donuts better than any other in Portland. I *suspect* I'd hate the gimmicky donuts at Voodoo (not willing to stand in line to find out) and Blue Star donuts are too rich and too expensive. Coco's does simple, well-made donuts at a decent price. So why only 3 stars? No tables, no chairs. I need a cup of coffee and a chill time to enjoy a donut properly. So when I want a good donut, I go to the Cocos on Broadway. I understand why: rents too high downtown. But this spoils it for me. read more

Coco Donuts is not a donut shop ran by Pablo Escobar... This lil shop I found off of yamhill and 6th is a great way to start the day. Since my car issues last week, i've been having to Max/Bus to work. While waiting for the bus the other day, the smell of coffee cought my nose. Coco Donuts is where the smell came from, and considering I had a 15 minutes wait, I checked it out. This shop is small and cozy, sweets and espresso fill the air. The selection of donuts is not amazingly huge, BUT....from what I have tried they all taste great. My favorite is the Apple Fritter. A long time favorite of mine. What I like about these more so than others, is the texture. The outside isn't as hard as a bomb shelter as most are, it's firm. The inside has a soft texture with great flavor. I can actually taste small chunks of apple. The service is friendly, the wait is very minimal, and those perks right there make things move that much smoother. I feel the price of the donuts is a lil' high, 1.25 for a fritter, .90 for a raised, 2.00 for a cinnamon crossaint...but nothing that's too crazy expensive. They do accept Debit/Credit, but require a $3.00 minimum purchase... Overall, this is a great spot to grab a cup of joe and a quick bite in the morning. read more

I came here for the lavender donut. I thought it was going to be a hole in the wall, but it was a really cute modern and clean shop. It's located in the middle of downtown, close to Nordstrom and all the shops on Morrison. The donut was fluffy and good, but I didn't really taste the lavender. It like a regular glazed donut. read more

Coco Donuts - Lavender donut - Donuts Near Me - Portland, Oregon

You know when you want a donut and you go someplace and you get one- only to bite into it and it's greasy. This isn't one of those donuts! These are light and just the right amount of sweet. The price is great, not too expensive, just right. If you want a great simple and pleasant donut experience this is the place. read more

Some of the best donuts I've had in the area. Service, coffee and price were also great.

Good quality donuts that don't miss on the sweetness or indulgence. Ingredients are wonderful and nothing's more Portland than a cup of coffee and a donut in hand! Apparently Coco also roasts their own beans! I got the espresso glazed donut (chocolate glazed with smatterings of espresso beans on top) and it was gobbled down wayy to quickly. The place itself is pretty small with counters only for standing room, so it's generally a to-go shindig but Pioneer Square is nearby if you need somewhere to chill. I'll definitely be back--these are a far cry from QFC's or Safeway's dozen doughnut boxes for sure. read more

I wanted to celebrate my successful exam at the dentist with a little sugar, and I had been meaning to try out Coco Donuts since I noticed it, so I ditched my stuff at the office and went to inspect it. The space is small, but clean, and uncluttered inside. There's a counter with a lovely case containing the stars (the donuts, of course), a sweet smell in the air, and a small condiment bar in the window. I'm not a fan of donuts on a regular basis, but I am a sucker for an apple fritter. Coco's is moderately sized (not a monster like Voodoo's), crispy on the edges, and not overly sweet. I have to say that the plainer the product, the harder it is to get perfectly right, and this fritter was just about perfect without weighing you down like a brick. The coffee was well above average in quality. Friendly service, reasonably priced, good stuff. I know where to go the next time a craving hits, and it's not to stand in line at the OldTown Voodoo. read more

I went here for a quick cup of coffee. Once I was in the door I couldn't pass up the tasty looking donuts. The coffee was good and the donuts were all fresh and tasty. The mochi donuts were a new treat. They were softer and fluffier than a conventional donut...we had the strawberry and the chocolate and they were both delicious. I got a maple bar for my kid and he said it was top notch. read more

Love these guys! After one too many disappointing and time wasting trips to Delicious Donuts, I decided to keep to coco. Came here on vet Day at 9am and everything was sold out, but within seconds a young man wheeled in a giant cart of fresh donuts!!! One thing delicious donuts has a real problem doing. I got my usual cinnamon roll, tried a maple bar, chocolate ring and Lavender Ring. All were as delightful as could be! They last forever too!!!! They didn't dry out or get oiled down after a few hours. The icing in the lavender donut had an amazing texture. Everything is delicious, very happy! read more

Okay donuts. Not amazing, but I've never had a bad donut. The thing that go me was they wanted to charge a $0.40 fee to use a credit card because my purchase was under $3. Normally I don't know what fees a merchant uses for processing credit cards, but Coco was using Square, which charges a flat 2.75% fee for any amount (https://squareup.com/pricing). So, my $1.80 purchase would cost Coco less than $0.06 from Square, but they were going to charge me $0.40. Coco, I plan to go back to Safeway from now on for my donuts. Two donuts there cost $1.00, and I don't have to pay a fee to use my credit card. You were going to charge me $2.20. I like to support the small shops, but I can't do it for you. read more

I love their donuts! Very light, fluffy, moist, not too overly sweet donuts. Very convenient location near the Pioneer Courtyard/Courthouse and max lines. Prices are reasonable for good quality donuts. I love their pretty pink boxes too! read more

The lavender donut is heavenly. Soft and light with just a bit of chew and not too oily. Waaaay better than Voodoo. Didn't like the lavender latte too much. Get here quick. Sometimes they run out of all the good stuff by 10. read more

Coco Donuts - So scrumptious, so purple, so sexy: the lavender donut! - Donuts Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I always miss the lavender donut, but this time I got the lavender latte. Not sure if it tasted how it's supposed to, but there was not a hint of lavender there. It tasted like Russian black bread, which I grew up eating. So this drink was a throwback! I would like to try it again, and hopefully get some lavender flavor next time. As much as I like Russian black bread, I don't want it in my drink. Barista was super friendly, made my latte pretty even though it was to-go, and the donuts were tasty as always. I went around 3 pm and since the donuts were older, it was BOGO free. Not my favorite donuts in Portland, but they're cheaper than my fav and nicer than Voodoo :) read more

The most excellent donuts in Portland. The glazed donuts are the most deliciously airy treats I've ever had. Not greasy at all, and don't leave you with that icky sugar overload feeling. Coco also has amazing drinks like chai lattes, cafe lattes, americanos, Etc. the best part... When I got my chai latte I hesitantly turned down some donuts and was given a donut hole with my latte :) love the staff and treats here, and your work buddies will too, if you don't eat the whole box before arriving to the office. read more

I'm going to start with an admission: I don't like shit on my donut. You know what I'm talking about. Bacon. fruit loops. Hell, I don't even like Glaze, chocolate, or maple. That's right, I'm a 35-year-old 100-year-old. Plain cake donuts are and always will be my favorite. This place? They do 'em right. not too sweet, perfectly cooked, and awesome dipped in their better than perfect lattes. The people? Awesome. Friendly. It's almost like you took a bunch of people from the midwest, dressed them in Portland clothes, and gave 'em a job making my donut. My big concern here? They'll end up on the food network and have a line around the block, leaving me to look in vain for my standard plain cake treat. read more

If your looking for some well made slightly over-priced basic donuts (that is NOT Voodoo) you've found your place. I went in with a mean maple bar craving and was given an anorexic looking bar for 95 cents. Its not totally unreasonable but, it IS just a run of the mill maple bar, smaller than the traditional size. The interior decor looks like someone took the candy store from the original willy wonka and the chocolate factory was made over by the set designers for Ugly Betty's fashion magazine. I think its supposed to look clean and modern but Im not really getting that message. My bottom line is that this place is close enough to my work that I MIGHT go again but both the price and the product didnt impress me enough to come running back anytime soon. read more

Each day, from shortly before sunrise until well after sunset, I crave sweets. My craving reaches its peak in the mid-afternoon as I'm staring at a computer screen. Fortunately for me, that computer is stationed in a building right around the corner from this Coco Donuts location. My frequent afternoon jaunts for old fashioned, chocolate covered, coconut, or lavender (to name a few) donuts never fail to satisfy and I often get more delectable nibbles than I had expected. On a particularly notable recent visit, I was enjoying a donut and an espresso by the window when I saw a man outside in the cold with a sign asking for help with bus fare and for a hot coffee. I decided to order a coffee for him on my way out. As I pulled out cash, the kind person behind the counter stopped me and said that the coffee was on the house. In all, Coco Donuts' donuts satisfy my craving for sweets, and they are served with a generous side of humanity. read more

Great little donut shop that's close to all the shopping downtown. Raised donuts are usually my favorite since I prefer the soft fluffy taste over the more dense cake donuts. Coco's are great because they are fluffy without any doughy taste, and not too sweet. I came later in the day and was excited to see one last buttermilk donut waiting for me in the display. The buttermilk maple was really good and I see why it's one of their more popular donuts. read more

Three words: Maple Glaze Bar I've been tasting donuts all over the world. Seriously... a 2am donut in Athens, Greece, once changed my life and turned me into a donut-craving animal. I just can't get enough of the crumbly, sugar glazed clouds. And I'll tell you what... Coco Donuts broke the mold. They make my favorite donuts in the world. Literally. And it was the maple glaze bar that did me in. read more

I don't much care for donuts, but I made an exception for this place. My husband loves maple bars so we stopped in here while on our way back to our car. I just had a plain glazed donut. The first thing I noticed was that the actual donut was very soft and light. I then took a bite of the maple bar which was also soft, light, creamy and heavenly. The maple icing was very natural tasting and not like the color sugar coating you get at the super market or Krispy Kreme. I was also surprised to find that their prices are pretty low. It's about $1.25 a donut I think. So if you're passing by and you love donuts, don't let this place pass you by...or the other way around. read more

No, at least for coffee. No. The cold brew looked like tea. It was orangey in hue, not black or even brown. That says to me it's too watery. Then there were two giant ice blocks in it. Courier does ice blocks. I don't have a problem with that. But two in one 16 oz cup is silly (leaving about 4 oz of beverage in the cup). And adding more water to an already over-watered drink is a mistake. My donut was fine. No complaints there. Maybe they should just stick to drip coffee. $3.50 for coffee that I didn't even finish. Gross. And wasteful. I won't go back. Too many other good options around (Public Domain, Case Study and even Starbucks are three better within 2-5 blocks). read more

I had a chocolate cake donut with peanuts on top and the cinnamon mocha. Both were delicious! They also give you a donut hole with a coffee / latte. The one thing to note - there are no seats and the place is tiny. read more

The doughnuts are great but I'm here at 1:15 on a Saturday and they are closed. Boxes of donunts outside. Sign says they close at 4:00. Weird and irritating that they aren't open when they say they are. read more

You're right Coco Donuts, I definitely DON'T want donuts on Sundays! Seriously though, great donuts. But why aren't you open on Sunday?!? read more

the pioneer square area needed a doughnut place badly and Coco just came to answer that call. I didn't realize they were open already until i was walking into work and saw the door open. I work in the afternoon so i can't say how busy it is in the morning but i was able to get in and out in less than a minute. Tasty donuts, no long lines, and of course next door convenience. i love you guys. read more

Friends have told me these are the tastiest donuts in town, so I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, the first two times I tried, they were out of donuts. How a donut shop doesn't have donuts in stock is beyond baffling to me. Later, I found a day when they actually had donuts in stock and gave it a try. The quality is very good, but, so is a fresh donut from a grocery store. I really don't see that it was noteworthy in any way. The storefront is pretty plain, the location is small, and there's not much seating. I'm glad other people like this place; guess I'll just continue to be baffled. read more

Coco was next to my hotel so I decided to grab some new and some familiar flavors. Thought they were all very well done. I got the maple crueler, chocolate glaze with coconut flakes, and a plain glazed. Not a very exciting selection that I chose, but it was what I was in the mood for and I thought they were well done. read more

Yes! So much yes! I work over at Pioneer Place and have fallen victim to the Starbucks across the street too many times. I mean, Starbucks is OK and all, but shelling out $7 for a mediocre latte and tiny muffin grates on your soul after a while. For less than that at Coco I can get a super delicious lavender latte and a yummy donut to go with it. Or, you know... two donuts. The second one is for a friend, obviously... read more

The best donuts and coffee in downtown Portland! Their service is top notch and never a long wait. Great decor and location too! I love this place! read more

Really disappointed with the crumb donut. You can't slap a few crumbs on a glazed and call it a crumb. The buttermilk bar was my favorite, the maple bar was ok. Basic donuts overall. Nothing overtly impressive that would sets them apart from a grocery store donut. Basic. read more

The girl was super nice, they have amazing maple bars better than Voodoo and way fresher, and the lavender hot chocolate was really yummy. I'll come back for sure!!! I love Voodoo of course. I was born and raised in Portland and will always be loyal to them. Even so, this place was cleaner, better looking, better designed, and WAY friendlier! read more

What a gem in Portland. While the store front is totally unassuming (dare I say, plain?), the treats inside are totally worth a stop. Their donuts are always light and delicious. The coffee - Water Avenue - is one of the best you can find downtown. THIS place should have the line, not that pink box place. The staff rotates quite a bit which is a shame, as its hard to become a "regular" but it maybe one day it will happen! Shout out to Ashley who is always super helpful! read more

Love the lavender latte, they make it just right not too much flavor so it tastes like soap. Just enough flavor and sweetness to make the drink enjoyable. Tried a few doughnuts, I think there were average. Nothing stood out to me out of the few I tried. (Chocolate, plain and buttermilk bar. I would visit again just for the Lavendar Latte. read more

I was looking for a little coffee and donut love one sunny afternoon, and wandered into Coco Donuts. The shop is perfectly sized, and had an array of donuts to display. The guy who took my order was friendly and talkative, and another guy came in after a break a few minutes after I arrived. The first guy then had to ask the second for help because he didn't know how to work the espresso maker... Which I'm pretty sure should be part of basic training if you work in a store that is half-coffeeshop? I had tried the maple glazed donut at the main base in Goose Hollow before, and picked a chocolate glazed with Christmas sprinkles to take to my S.O. I ordered a regular mocha and a salted caramel latte as well. The maple glazed donut I will say without doubt was the best maple glazed donut I have ever had. Bar none. Wonderfully light donut and it was pleasantly sweet. Please try it if you're a maple fan like me. Now for the other half of my order...The coffee was strange. I don't know how to describe the flavor, and am not sure if it was because they use a different type of coffee grounds, or the shots were off, but it was just strange. I thought at first that I liked it, but I'm pretty sure that it was the salted caramel syrup that I was into. I did end up drinking the whole thing because coffee, but it definitely became more unpleasant as it cooled down. The mocha had a sort of similar flavor, so it was definitely something about the coffee, or possibly the milk that was throwing me off. I do love that they include a donut with the coffee, because the two work like miracles together, but this coffee should not be had without. So while I know I'll be back for donuts, there's too many places nearby that make a stellar first coffee to take chances on a second try here. read more
