Marni M.

I was very lucky to see an assortment of their donuts brought to work one day. It was honestly such a hard decision to pick one as they all look so delicious! I ended up getting one of their old-fashioned style donuts, which was delicious and not too sweet. I only wish I had space to have some more. Would love to try there donuts again!

If we were able to give this place 10 stars, we would in a heartbeat. We found this place last year when traveling and we're back in the same area and we had to stop back here at Danny's donuts . The service is friendly, helpful, and very kind and considerate . As soon as you walk in the door, you smell fresh donuts, and you are absolutely in heaven , the selections are incredible. They have plenty of seating inside if you want to grab a coffee or a soda and sit down and enjoy a couple dozen donuts inside you would enjoy yourself. If I was able to do this, I would go in there one morning and try every single donut that they got they are all super fresh, amazingly flavorful and decorated with perfection . The cinnamon roll and the apple fritters are some of the very best I've had in my 60 years of life. If you're in the area or driving down the highway plug the address in and go and support this local business. You will absolutely not be disappointed. We highly recommend Danny's donuts.

Danny's Donuts is a family owned eatery featuring handmade donuts and breakfast sandwiches, but also offering ice cream, smoothies, and coffee. It is located in a nondescript shopping center near Main Street and Jesse Jewell Parkway. There are five locations in Gainesville (2), Flowery Branch (2), and Buford (1). We ordered six dozen donuts (glazed, blueberry cake, maple bacon, apple fritters, cinnacrunch) and a Smoked Sausage Breakfast Burrito. Danny's offers limited no-frills seating. Customer service was solid and my breakfast burrito was ready within an appropriate time frame. All of the donuts were fresh, fluffy, and tasty. I particularly loved the sweet saltiness of the maple bacon. My husband woofed down the apple fritter before I could even ask to taste it. The breakfast burrito is simple - meat, cheese, egg, diced potatoes, tortilla. But it is also delicious and filling. I am in Gainesville periodically for work. I have been told never to visit Gainesville without bringing a box of donuts home. I am also intrigued with their donut and ice cream concoction.

One of the few still standing original donut places with out all the commercialism relating to other crappy donut places. Service is quick and easy because of the huge variety of choices. My two favorites are the maple bacon and the best sour cream. They have two locations, the one downtown is the better of the two. You can order donuts and dine in house for they have a dining room. Nothing extravagant, enough for you to wake up with a cup of coffee and a fresh donut to start your day.

Good service love the donuts and taste of New Orleans Louisiana not to sweet smile in the bag

A doughnut shoe done simply and right. I'm on a road trip. Made this a destination to stay off the main hwys. I am so glad I did. Fantastic doughnuts. I often ask the employee for their favorites, when it will be the only time I will visit. She picked Apple fritter, maple bacon doughnut and taro Boba smoothie. The Apple fritter was mini. I like that. It was a single serve, packed through with apple. One criticism would be it was almost too sweet and too gooey. I'd prefer those issues rather than the opposite, dry. The maple bacon doughnut was a dream. Fluffy inside, firm bit outside. Just enough sweet, salty, maple flavors to cause me to take a bite, then wolf the rest down. Taro smoothie was fun. Not too sweet. Strangely, I'd describe it as the most purple thing I've ever had. The inside is gutted. Not too inviting, with tables missing or turned over. Just the aftermath of Covid. You want a doughnut, this is the place you should go. Period. Forget the rest.

Friendly local donut shop worth trying if you're in the area. Employees are always welcoming and greet you when you walk in the door. Donuts are made fresh and priced are very reasonable. I enjoyed the glazed donuts - dough is soft and just the right amount of sweet. I've tried the Apple fritter and it was a bit too oily and soggy. Seating is very limited - one or two tables so I suggest ordering to go. I'd come here than the big chain donut shops anytime.

We went at 2:00 pm on a Monday. There were plenty of donuts left to select from! They don't require customers to wear masks, but the lady serving the donuts was wearing one. They have lines on the floor for social distancing. We got a half dozen donuts for about $7, including tax. Here's what we got, in order of my preference: - Apple Fritter - Cinnamon Sugar - Old Fashioned - Bear Claw (cinnamon with apple filling; we didn't like the filling that much) - Chocolate with Chocolate Frosting - Red Velvet The Apple Fritter was definitely the best. We would get the first two donuts again, but we could do without the last four. She gave us four extra donut holes and they were delicious! These are good donuts for the area. Great Apple Fritter and great service!

A local donut spot!! Sweet! I was driving by, minding my business and this place caught my eye. Continued to my destination and said I would stop by on the way back. Rainy day and I honestly didn't want to get out the car again but I'm glad I did! Donuts are their specialty but they sell croissants, coffee and smoothies. You can buy a donut at $0.90 each, half dozen for $4.95 or a dozen for $8.95. I opted for a half dozen and they threw in a couple of extra as a "rainy day special". Pleasant surprise and great appreciated

Best donuts around!! They are smaller than Dunkin' Donuts but wayyyyyy better. The first time I bought donuts here was about a year when I was in Gainesville. It was around this time of the year when I found myself back in Gainesville. I made it a point to pick up more donuts here this time. Every flavor was just amazing!! The staff was very friendly and kind. Each donut cost 0.90. Cheap and super yummy!! I wish this place is located in Buckhead :D PS. Donuts were too heavenly, gobbled them all and then realized I forgot to take pics ;D

They're ok, for the area (for NE Georgia). I'm used to the delicious donuts in Chicago. I'm a huge donut person. I often daydream about donuts. The first time I went, I bought 4 different flavors. They were ok. That was about two months ago and I haven't thought to go back since. They kind of taste like dunkin' donuts. I'm glad y'all like it though read more

These are the best donuts in town! The donuts are so soft and with just the right amount of sweetness. The staff were super friendly and welcoming as well. I usually go up to Mall of Georgia for some good donuts but I don't have to do that anymore! These are by far one of the best donuts I've ever tasted and at a great price as well! A whole dozen were only $9 and they even threw in a couple extra for free! My favorites are the Maple Bacon, Cinnamon, and Bear Claw. If you're ever in Gainesville, you should definitely go visit and get some donuts! read more

Being a well traveled coffee and donut shop connoisseur, I have to say that this little hidden donut hole gem is always a favorite. I've literally eaten at local donut shops across the US. And this one ranks right up there. To me, it's all about consistency and value at a local donut shop. This shop always has a nice variety at a good price. Plus, it's just a good donut.

Never thought I'd say that, but it's Soooooo good! Little bit of sweet and salty! My kids love anything with sprinkles so Danny's has that covered. The service is always great and donuts are always fresh! Our church even has switched from Dunkin to Danny's (shhh- don't tell Dunkin!).

Yes! That was my first visceral reaction when I saw a donut place open in Gainesville. Danny's is nestled in the strip of shops behind CVS off of Main Street, next to the cleaners. As most donut shops are, this one opens early and closes by mid afternoon. I was in Gainesville for a few weeks for work and visited here periodically. Every donut I tried was mouth watering, especially one chocolate filled, chocolate glazed chocolate donut with chocolate chip toppings. I definitely got diabetes from that very donut and I have NO RAGRETS. The shop is run by the most friendly people and they have other items for sale as well. The donuts are prepared fresh each morning and I will undoubtedly continue giving Danny's my business in the years to come. read more

During today's visit around 1:20pm there was a 20 minute wait which was fine. We waited the full length of time and got seated. Our server was very nice and took our drink and food orders quickly. After getting our appetizer (2 biscuits) we waited 50 minutes for our entree. Almost to the point where we weren't hungry. I was sorely disappointed when my meal, the chicken tenders, came out. They were wet, rubbery, and the breading wouldn't stay on. I completely lost my appetite and sent it away with the check. Our waiter offered a complementary dessert, but I came there to eat a meal. After waiting so long for a meal I was not going to waste any more of my day. What was most disappointing was that despite sending back nearly the entire dish, the entrée was still on the bill. Keep in mind this is not a cheap restaurant. In my opinion, when a customer returns 90% of a meal due to quality issues, that item should be removed without having to ask. Overall, we really wanted to enjoy this place, but between the long wait and poor food quality, it missed the mark for us. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.

Dirty Bird and the Beignets are a must order here. Even for those that don't love gravy I'd still get the dirty bird because the gravy is on the lighter side and very flavorful. This was the best meal I had in Georgia during my trip hands down. Enjoy!

Visited for a weekend brunch and here's my honest take--if you're going on a weekend, be ready to…read morewait at least an hour for a table. It's a small, popular place, and the wait can be long, especially during brunch hours. Some of my friends had to wait for almost 2hrs for the table. That said, it's a family-run style restaurant with a cozy, homey vibe, and the food is good. They serve classic Southern breakfast and brunch dishes, and most items are flavorful and comforting but compared to other brunch places the portion sizes are small. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff is friendly, though service can feel a bit slow when it's busy. Overall, it's a good spot if you're craving Southern comfort food, but go with patience--or try visiting on a weekday to avoid the long wait.

We had no issues and the food was decent. Overall not a bad bite to eat! Try their signature mocktails. Very delicious.

When she returned, she asked for my name and said they had an order but didn't know who it was for. They finally brought my order out at 10:35am. I asked to speak to the Manager and he said they didn't know who the order was for. I asked why do I have an active account through their phone app if it doesn't work? I feel it was nothing more than excuses. I was late to my meeting. Won't be going to the First Watch anymore!

As a long-time customer, Danny's Donuts has always felt like home away from home. From the moment I first discovered this shop over 4 years ago, I was hooked! Everything from the friendly faces behind the counter to the always delicious treats have made Danny's a mainstay in my weekly routine. Their staff's passion for community and commitment to quality ingredients really shine through. I can close my eyes and still taste the homemade glaze and cinnamon sugared classics that fueled many late study sessions. Now owning multiple locations across Gainesville, Danny's success is testament to the caring family behind the business. In a world where so much is out of our control, it's comforting knowing they'll always be a welcoming place to refresh body and soul. Their love for customers old and new makes Danny's more than just another dining spot - it's a beloved institution at this point. For happy memories made and bellies filled, Danny's Donuts earns itself lifetime loyalty from this grateful customer. I can't recommend them enough to all community members needing a sweet pick-me-up! Thanks for keeping Gainesville sweet, Danny's - here's to many years of joy-filled patronage to come. read more

Can't believe how great these guys treat us. It's rare to go somewhere and be greeted like friends then also receive a quality product. The donuts are all made fresh and therefore have the most amazing texture and taste. My wife likes their Boba Tea. If you're buying bulk donuts for your work or friends definitely buy them here. They'll notice a huge difference over Dunkin' Donuts and others! read more

The best donuts anywhere!!! And I do mean THE ABSOLUTE BEST IN MY LIFE.... BAR NONE!! The selection of scrumptious, taste-tantalyzing, freshly made confections is staggering. If you are dieting, you better stay away because it's gonna be hard to stop with a single donut, especially with such an amazing selection. You have been warned!! read more

My opinion, these are way better than Krispy Cream Donuts. But? You need to go early or call ahead to place your order because there supply of these wonderful donuts are limited by what they produce every day. The owner is very nice and respectful of all. Chocolate Covered Chocolate Filled Are just a few of what I like. Apple Fritters read more

Easily the best apple fritter I have ever had. The rest of the selection is amazing as well, far better than any chain donut shop. The prices are also on par or even lower for a mixed dozen than some of the chains. The non donut items are good as well, especially the sausage burrito. Highly recommend. read more
