I love that this location is open 24/7 because I've found my here a few times either during the day or in the middle of the night due to desperate donut craving crisis. I've never had problems with the customer service here, they just don't talk very much so I can see why people get the impression that they're "rude". The donuts here are delicious and reasonably priced. Though, I don't recommend getting their biscuits & gravy or angus burger here because they're just frozen microwaved items bought bulk from Costco. They used to have a FROYO section at the other end of the restaurant, but it's no longer here. They still haven't changed their sign outside... read more

I've tried giving this place chance after chance and it has consistently gotten worse. In the last six months, I have yet to receive a fresh maple bar. The last time I ordered one I asked if they were fresh and the counter person said, "they should be". I said, "I agree, but are they? ". She assured me they were, and they weren't. So I thought I'd try another route my next visit and order Boston cream. The cream tasted curdled and I threw it away. So maybe they should just change their name to "Day old donuts". Too many other places to get donuts to pay full price for day old donuts. Quit ripping off your customers with poor quality food. read more

I grew up loving Daynight, so this comes from a heartbreaking place for me. This is the second time I've been to their location in the last year and the donuts were pathetically under filled. We ordered 3 boxes each go for about $20 now, and found that most of the donuts were under-filled. The one pictured was supposed to be blackberry filled glazed, the pastry itself was still good how I remember (on this donut anyway, the coconut creams tasted stale) but it only had about a teaspoon of filling- and the other two blackberrys had the exact same. Apart from jellies all other filled donuts we had were severely under-filled. I wish I could say the service was good instead but the lady at the counter was quite rude while waiting for our order making a grand statement about how she had things in the back to do (I've worked customer service, I understand being busy or understaffed but her tone was enough to send my mother out the door) we had a large order- it was going to take time, but her attitude was out of place. It did not feel like the daynight I used to know. Will be going to the other location and praying for better result- never coming back to this one. read more

Daynight Donuts - A very sad unfilled donut - Donuts Near Me - Salem, Oregon

$18.59 for a dozen of donuts that not only were disgusting to look at but completely horrible tasting. We have never had donuts so bad and we love donuts. We ended up throwing them away, they were so bad. read more

I wouldn't get anything other than a donut here. The flavored coffees are basically sugar water and the breakfast sandwich was a heated up frozen one from the store. Awkward environment. But donuts were good. read more

The quality has gotten worse each time I give them a try. The only good thing they have going for them is that they are open 24 hrs, thus the only spot open at 3 or 4 am. The donuts and holes I ordered were all suppose to have filling inside them, however, it was minimal. I could barely taste any filling inside the Boston Creams and I can remember getting them in the past and they were filled generously to where you'd get cream filling with nearly each bite. This time, I got 3/4 of the way through the donuts before I got any cream filling. The chocolate also seemed to be old and flakey, they did not seem to be very fresh. And the holes I ordered (both cream filled and cherry filling) had little to no cream taste or filling in them. Completely disappointing -- should have just waited an hour or 2 for Roth's bakery to open or drive down to King Donuts. Do Better Daynight!! read more

Excellent made donuts, wide and creative choices (also super tasty blended snickers mocha) we didn't get any ice cream tho, will order some next time with our free donut coupon! read more

The only reason I'm compelled to write this review is because when I came in on Thursday night around 8:30, December 12th, 2024, I thought the customer in front of me reeked of cigarette smoke. After they left, the store still smelled like smoke. I finally asked the cashier as I was ordering my donuts if they smelled cigarette smoke everywhere. They shook their head yes, pointed to the back, and said "someone's smoking back there." They had a look on their face like they couldn't do anything about it. The smell was disgusting for a place selling donuts, but it was even more disgusting to imagine the dynamic between the employees and the front counter person not being able to do anything about it. I thought the owner should know themselves so I looked them up, but I couldn't find a simple way to contact them. They can do what they want with whoever was smoking in the back of the restaurant on this night, but I will never order again from this place. I hope the owner can understand why. The person in the back is probably the person making the donuts. If an employee doesn't understand such a basic rule exists, they shouldn't be working there. If an employee does understand such a basic rule exists and chooses to not care, they shouldn't be working there. read more

The absolute worst donuts I have ever had. Completely ruined our Christmas morning tradition. Besides being almost completely inedible, the donuts they are calling glazed weren't even glazed, they were sour cream cake donuts. I spit out the first bite, it was THAT BAD! read more

Daynight Donuts - Donut 'glazed' - Donuts Near Me - Salem, Oregon

They have gone downhill. I believe them to be under new management. Their shelves were minimally stocked at 11am which is unusual from what it always was. When I asked what that was when she put the old fashioned into my box, she said "a donut" I expected her to replace it but just as well she didn't as I was able to photograph. It read more

Ordering delivery from this place is pointless, even at 7:30 a.m. on a Saturday morning. You go online and order/pay for the donuts you want, and then they deliver whatever they feel like. Out of the dozen I specifically ordered, I think I got maybe three out of the variety I asked for. The single "mini apple fritter" in the varied dozen of ordinary donuts like "chocolate glazed," "maple glazed," and "jelly filled" that I requested became FIVE gigantic, greasy apple fritters, which no one in my household will eat. This is a neighborhood business which I've tried to support over the years, but I won't be ordering from them again. Online customers beware. read more

Someone brought donuts from this business to our office. To be honest, I don't know if they came from the Fairgrounds or Commercial St location. There was one in particular that I enjoyed. Since then I started going to the Fairgrounds location every so often. The donut was good. The location inside and out is less than appealing. Appearances are dirty, run-down and uncared for. Still, they have this one donut I like. I also appreciate they are open 24 hours. Several weeks ago when I visited, there was a homeless man sitting in a wheelchair under their awning. I visited the next day when we were receiving a very heavy downpour. I looked at where the homeless man had been sitting and saw a very large pile of human excrement. The homeless man was now out on the sidewalk next to the street in this heavy downpour. I visited again shortly after and still saw this pile of poop next to their doorway. No sign of the homeless man but the poop remained. No doubt they chased him off for good reason. He took a giant dump right at the front of their business. I visited again and saw they did not bother to clean this up, they simply poured what looks like powdered detergent over it. I have subsequently visited several more times and this white powdered poop still remains! It's unbelievable that not a single person in this restaurant has the care, concern or ability to clean this up. I'm guessing they are hoping the magic detergent they sprinkled over it will simply restore the situation to clean. It's sad, sick and disgusting!!! Really makes me wonder what they are doing or not doing in their kitchen that we can't see. read more

Nastiest food I've ever gotten the donuts are over cooked and hard also who the fuck makes biscuits and gravy with donuts that is the grossest shit ever definitely not getting food from day night donuts on fairview again or the other store for that matter. 30 bucks wasted for garbage. read more

I live outside Salem and don't have a local source for donut-shop donuts. I finally visited Daynight one morning and was so glad I did. I got a variety of my favorites and the lady included a few donut holes as well (surprise!). All the donuts were fresh, tasted as they should and had quite a bit of icing/filling (depending of the donut). My visit was at 7:00 am on a Sunday. Maybe other times/days are different, but I truly don't understand the negative comments. These donuts were SO good. read more

No gloves, tongs or tissue. They literally pick the donut up with their bare fingers.

I stopped by Day Night Donuts this morning 01/22/2020 and bought donuts and two Tropicana orange juice bottles, when I got home I went to open the bottles and noticed the orange juice seemed discolored and then saw the expiration date on the bottles was 12/22/2019. This is unacceptable, perhaps I should've noticed in the store the dates but silly me, I assumed a restaurant would have unspoiled food products and didn't think it was my job to check expiration dates on food they sell. Will never go here again as this is disgusting and a waste of my money. Customers beware!! Check all the products you buy first there, they may be spoiled and expired!! read more

I went to the daylight donuts on Fairgrounds road today. I ordered 25 doughnut holes because I really wanted some doughnuts. Before she started getting my doughnuts, the girl picks her nose, rubs her nose, picks up one of those tissues and starts putting my donut holes in the bag. I told her, I do not appreciate you picking your nose and then grabbing a tissue and putting my donut holes in the bag without washing your hands. She told me, she said, I had a tissue so it's fine. I said no it's not fine, you need to wash your hands, there's germs around your nose don't you agree with me? She just stared at me. I took my bag of doughnuts and threw them away. You know that just pisses me off everybody knows that there are a lot of germs around our face and our noses that are extremely dangerous germs. This little teenage girl needs to be taught a lesson and hygiene and she needs to get fired. She's probably the owner's granddaughter or daughter so that's not gonna happen, but the least they can do is teach her what soap and water looks like, how to use it, And maybe give her in class in food handling. Yeah I'm a little pistzoff because I really wanted a doughnut, apparently that's not gonna happen. read more

Very convenient that this place is 24 hours. They provide a consistent level of quality for their products and the staff are always nice here. I do however wish they would add more variety to their selection like voodoo donuts, that's the only thing hindering me from giving 5 stars. read more

The donuts I purchased here yesterday (1/31/20) were stale. The Commercial St. location I've never had that experience but will never waste money buying donuts at this location again. It's very clear they are not baked fresh daily. Even my son who can eat an entire box only ate oNe. :( read more

They are open for to go orders only during the quarantine. Service was very friendly, a young lady helped me and she was really sweet. Donuts were yummy as usual. They ran out of a few flavors that we went there to get or maybe they just aren't making as many while the demand is low? Either way it was a pleasant experience. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would, the women working the counter was extremely hostile upon my boyfriend and I walking in, I don't expect 5 star customer service but maybe stop stocking juices when people walk in, I have no idea if she thought we were others but she was extremely hostile refused to acknowledge us and kept muttering under her breath until she began to address the next couple who walked In, once they were done I asked her point blank "do we have a problem" she repeated you know what the problem is and refused to help, refused to state any actual issue, until a manager suddenly drove up , he reluctantly helped us offer free donuts for the issues then asked for the amount due to be paid anyway, the whole situation was just a confusing mess and I will definitely be choosing well anywhere else for donuts read more

If you are open 24 hours maybe you could make the donuts fresh every few hours instead of serving stale donuts at 10pm. Your donuts suck! Bring back Dunkin Donuts! read more

Great doughnuts at a great price. $10 for a dozen doughnuts? Nowadays that's a great price. The doughnut selection is always fantastic and even in the afternoon when most doughnut places are almost empty, these guys must make them all day and night to maintain such an impressive assortment and variety of doughnuts. They always have great customer service as well. Very friendly. My favorite doughnut shop for sure. read more

Service was good but will not be coming here again. Ordered a half dozen donuts and they were all placed in a bag instead of a box. I don't mind a bag for a couple donuts but when you have six in there they tend to get smashed together. The next morning when we went to eat the donuts there was mold growing on most of them so we had to throw them away. Very disappointing experience. read more

This doesn't even deserve a 1 star rating, but it was the lowest rating it would let me give :( I walked in about 1:00 am. There were no other customers in the building. Yet, the counter clerk stood there for about almost a minute with his back turned to me texting on his phone. Eventually, he came to the counter texting with his head down. It was not until I said hello did he even acknowledge me. I told him I wanted a dozen doughnuts. He didn't even look up the entire time. He mumbled have a good night after I gave him my cash, yet he still didn't even look at me. I'm not sure what this place's idea for customer service is, but this was not a way to make me want to come back. In fact I will not be coming back!! Sad, because their doughnuts are fairly decent, but not worth my hard earned money!!!!! read more

We were sorely missing a good donut shop after Dunkin' Donuts left the west coast a few years back. Safeway donuts are good but donut shops offer more variety (naturally). Thankfully, there is Daynight Donuts! I happen to know that their recipes are pretty much the exact same as Dunkin', so if you miss your old coffee and donuts, this is the place! My favorite thing to buy here is the donut holes. For less than five dollars you will receive a dozen donut holes. I like to get the mixed variety so we get a sample of a bunch of different kinds of donuts. So good! read more

I've heard really good things about this place and always want to try it out whenever I am in Salem. We decided to go on the 4th of July but wanted to call first before making a trip out there to find that they're close due to the holiday. The lady who answered let out a deep sigh and in a monotone voice said "we are always open 24/7". GREAT. When we arrived, there was no other cars in the lot. We ordered half a dozen, sat down to have one while in the shop. My choice was the pink frosted with sprinkles. Unfortuately, the dontus did not taste fresh and I did not enjoy mine. My husband said his was the same way too. We then wanted to try a few of the other ones and all the same results, stale donuts. I will not be returning. read more

The doughnuts are good, they keep them fairly well stocked, and they have a great variety. Price is good. But the customer service is terrible. The employees often seem to be in bad moods. There is no friendly greeting, no smiles, and very short, rude interactions. Look you up and down then slam a pen down in front of you, saying, "sign here", then moving on to the next customer. read more

This place was the grossest restaurant I've been in so far this year. Dirty. Dingy. The girl at the counter didn't use proper hand washing techniques. She just rinsed her fingers with cold water, never used soap. They had cheap biscuits and gravy which were boring and for sure, the ingredients were cheap. Won't ever go back. Donuts tasted like they were cooked in old grease. read more

I had such a wonderful experience here! A friend of mine was in desperate need of a Wi-Fi connection and a power source to take an online exam for a program that she is taking online. The awesome lady working the counter let us sit in the booth with the outlet, even though that section of the building was closed because it was so late at night. She carried our drinks to the table for us and made sure that we had everything we needed! She even let us sample a cream filled donut hole so we were sure that we wanted them. We shared a few laughs together and felt extremely welcome. I gave four stars, because the building is a bit older and could stand a renovation, but my experience will keep me coming back! The biscuits and gravy were hot and delicious for $2! Great experience! read more

The donuts were good. Nothing wow about them. But still a good donut. The lady was super nice to us. We will definitely be returning here! The chocolate cream filled donut was delicious read more

Good donuts but don't try the buscuits and gravy. Terrible food. I'd rather go down the road to McDonald's read more

great place yummy food i went to the bathroom and it was so clean the best staff ever the owner is nice

Do not order ANYTHING besides the donuts. Nothing is made fresh, its all packaged and microwaved. And not even GOOD packaged and microwaved food, just bad bad bad. read more

small blended mocha = $2.49 ??? Anything under 5 dollar, there is 30 CENTS DEBIT/CREDIT CARD CHARGE I honestly don't think it's fair for business to pass this charge to a consumer. It is important to remember the DODD FRANK ACT is in place, so business aren't being charge the transaction fees as high as before. I believe business are charged 14cents per every transaction regardless of amount. Anyways so if you are like me, just wanted to grab a mocha and donut on the go, bring cash! I do want to mention that the blended mocha was TERRIBLE. Costco outbeats this place. The texture looked like a costco blended mocha but with more white "aka too much ice". It was bland. It had no taste of chocolate. I would stay away from the mocha. The parking is kind of funny, however most people were in and out. There is 6 parking spots so not many people stay in there. The donut was ok. It was fluffier than safeway donut, but nothing ahhh-mazing. read more

The donuts are okay taste just like any other donuts so nothing really special about them. The prices are some what fair. The customer service is always terrible!! I've been there 3 times, and each time the service was rude and uncomfortable. You can really tell they don't want to be there, or like their customers, and apparently the boxes are only for a dozen donuts so don't bother to ask if you can have your donuts in a box because the answer is no. ONLY GO THERE WHEN I'M IN DESPERATE NEED OF DONUTS. OTHER THAN THAT I GO TO SAFEWAY!!!!!!!!!!! at least I feel welcome there, and the people actually help you. read more

I've always loved the selection here! And I've never had a problem with customer service either. The doughnuts are not the best but they're good! read more

Not sure how this place has 2 stars (as of my review) I almost didn't try it, but we are moving in right down the street, so figured would give it a try. First good sign was a full parking lot, second was good donut selection, even some stuff I had never had, nothing crazy like voodoo, but lots of good donuts. We got a dozen random donuts, all were good, and biscuits and gravy also was good. Service was so-so, and I normally would bump down my rating, but kept it high since expectations were so low based on prior Yelp reviews read more
