Probably some of the best donuts in Phoenix. Especially when they're fresh out of the fryer.

Delicious donuts! We just Recently move to the area and tonight my daughter went to apply for work and got also some free donuts from the owner. Thank you so much! , that was so kind and the donuts were amazing! read more

What a fun experience! Fresh donuts made to order they come out warm, yummy and light and fluffy!

LOL The staff is cheer y and will help you pick the perfect flavors they have ice cream as well and some really cool breakfast / donut options. You can't go wrong if give them a try! read more

Not only were the donuts fabulous but the customer service was out of this world. This was my first time there and the gentleman that owns the place made me a donut, on the house, to enjoy while he made my donuts! I tried to donut of the month which is cinnamapple. Oh my goodness, probably the best donut I've ever had! It was freshly made so it was warm, melted in the mouth. If you don't see a donut on the menu then you make your own creation! The donuts are freshly made when you own them. Highly recommend! read more

This place is not clean. The windows, door, and basically the entire area. They need to take a day and clean EVERYTHING.

Lots of varieties of flavors of toppings to choose from. Be adventurous and tell the servers what you're craving for. Our regular stop on our way to NAU any time of the day.

What can you say about a place that does made to order donuts? Great concept!

The donuts are all absolutely fresh and you can watch them creating your choice(s). When they're done the call your name. Super Fresh. Probably like no donut you've ever had.

Recommended ! read more

Donuts are super fried and it smells like it as u go in, There are so many Option now days for better nutrition with sweets fór u and ur kids read more

Nice selection of donuts and friendly staff. Be aware that the online ordering system doesn't work as advertised yet. When selecting a future order pick up time the system changes it to 1 hour earlier after you order. If you order for 9am for example the store gets the order for 8am. This is an issue if you are expecting your order to be hot and fresh. Owner is attentive and offered to make things right which is appreciated. Recommend phoning order in if needed to schedule a pick up until online system is working. read more

Oh my goodness! It's like, a Coldstone but with donuts on demand! I'm a fan of plain cake doughnuts but my kiddo is a whole other story. You get to pick your donut which is really made, then pick your glaze/ frosting... then pick a topping. My little guy chose one of their options which was a regular donut with chocolate glaze, topped with mini chocolate chips and chocolate sprinkles. I chose just the old fashioned which was THE BEST donut I've ever had. We will be returning! Maybe I'll even get adventurous and update y'all with another type of donut! read more

Desert Donuts - Best doughnuts ever.... crazy kinds of doughnuts... these are cake doughnuts and oh so good!!!!!! Super friendly staff - Donuts Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Had this place bookmarked for over a year but it's so far north (I live in Chandler lol) and every time JD get up that way for a trip to the mountains it'd be so early they wouldn't even be open yet. That all changed this past Sunday as some friends and I made our way up to Fossil Creek mid-morning. Immediately upon walking in it becomes clear this place is like the same format as Fractured Prune. Now I am a fan of all donuts believe me but Fractured Prune has oftentimes left me desiring more. Desert Donuts on the other hand is the mom and pop alternative to the same style (donut decorated to order) providing much better quality. I ordered the monthly special Pink Lemonade donut and was surprised how much the flavor combo actually worked out. It was delicious! I'll try to make Desert Donuts a regular morning stop going forward before heading up North. read more

Best custom donuts ever! Donuts are made while you wait and are served while still hot!

amazing service, always kind and very helpful. the place is very clean too. they always have a smile on their face

I have never dared dream of such a place, let alone hear of this becoming a new tread. MADE TO ORDER DONUTS WITH CUSTOM TOPPINGS. Boy am I glad that my husband wanted donuts that morning, on our way up I17. We saw the sign for Desert Donuts and took the exit. Friendly welcoming and quick explanation, 5 mins and we were out the door with a box of fresh cake donuts with custom toppings. FANTASTIC! I am glad we were just visiting though - or I would be here getting donuts for every office birthday, school function, or whatever reason I could come up with to get Desert Donuts. They aren't cheap but they are affordable and worth it! Located in the strip mall, a couple doors down from Albertson's. - which is handy if you need a nearby restroom. read more

Amazing Staff and Service. Donuts looks perfect and delicious. So sweet and make you feel welcome.

Donut Shops are on the rise in the Metro Phoenix Area and Desert Donuts is certainly unique. The Donuts are made fresh to order. At the time of this review the sweet fresh donuts are priced at $1.50 each and you get a fresh cooked to order vanilla cake donut that you can have with a variety of toppings and or fillings. They also offer breakfast donuts topped with eggs and bacon. I looked at all the choices and went blank so I got one I saw on the menu, the Boston cream. My donut was hot and fresh. It was a light cake batter that wasn't too sweet and the toppings were tasty. Maybe as this Donut Shop gets more popular they can offer a couple more flavors of donuts like chocolate or cinnamon? The people working there were very helpful and friendly. read more

These guys have started to get pretty expensive the last few years, so be on the lookout for coupons on Facebook before coming. The donuts are fantastic though! I didn't know what I was missing out on when I had these freshly fried pillowy cake doughnuts. I love that they try to use real fruit as a base for the frosting flavors instead of artificial flavors. The owner cares about your experience, and this should be a fun visit for you. read more

Today was my first time here at Desert Donuts (as I just moved here from Green Bay, WI) and it won't be my last! So happy my friends brought me here! It was a real experience I won't soon forget! Good thing I looked at the online 'Donut Menu' last night; was a great idea as it saved me a lot of time. I'd suggest you do the same! Have a plan of attack because the longer it takes you to decide, you could actually be digging into 'donut awesomeness'!! Please don't judge me, but I savored every bite of my Bacon Blast w/ hot sauce and Carmel Delight with a knife & fork!! My iced white chocolate & peppermint latte wasn't bad either!! I will definitely be back. Maybe I will stick with the same 2 'gems' or... maybe I won't! Either way, it will be a scrumptious melt- in -your- mouth combination! read more

Absolutely crave-able. The donuts are fresh made to order. Go! You won't be disappointed.

Ok donuts that are overpriced and undersized. Our wait for 2 donuts and coffees was about 25 minutes.

The customer service was exemplary, the cashier greeted us as soon as we walked in, and because it was our first time gave us a run down of the establishment! The donuts are probably the best I've ever had! The coffee was also outstanding! read more

Omg. What a wonderful surprise for our day to the north. Let's just stop and get a snack and than eat lunch somewhere. Wanna talk about a HIT, FRIENDLY STAFF, EXPLAINED EASLY ON THERE CONCEPT.....this is a FRESH MADE TO ORDER DONUT SHOP. YES. u want it your way. This is the place. Hot FRESH DONUTS! Ps. Size doesn't NOT MATTER.....I went simple. Glazed. Just cuz I do. I got 2. Omg. The bestest. Ok. Part 2 Dummy left her bank card in swipe device. Didn't realize till we got to JEROME.

I said driver license. He said DOUBLE COOL. So this place is so legit. Stop by and see. There are funky ice creams and drinks, breakfast bowls. WE WILL STOP AGAIN. THANK YOU. read more

We come here often and it's always the best. If you can imagine it they have it. The most creative donuts I've ever seen. Hot and freshly made for every order! read more

Where else can you go and get a warm yummy donut and ice cream to boot! Owners are so nice and you know they love their jobs

This place used to be so good. I'm not sure what happened. After the ownership change the donuts got smaller despite staying the same price, take longer to make and don't taste the same. Additionally, they're trying to turn the place into a Boba/smoothie spot? Odd. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. RIP Desert Donuts. read more

When you walk in you see pictures of different donuts and all the toppings that are available. This is one of those "we custom make your donuts to order" shops. It's a little hard to order as the menu is a selection of donuts, there are more creations written on the walls, and pictures of donuts scattered around. They make the donuts pretty quickly. Our server/cook screwed up one of our donuts and proceeded to toss it away and make another one. It took a bit of time to remake and it made me wonder why they don't throw incorrect orders into the customers' boxes. It seems like an easy win. read more

Mmm... donuts!!! *drool* This cute little shop makes the most delicious old-fashioned cake-style donuts I've ever had... in a long long time. I've craved those old-fashioned kind of donuts for so long, and attempted to get my fix with store bought ones, but it never did the trick. I wish I would've known about Desert Donuts sooner -- oh boy, they take me back to my younger years when I would go on field trips to the apple orchard and got to eat a fresh-made cake-style donut and drink fresh apple cider... those were the days! I walked in (looking like a lost puppy since I had never been here before), and was greeted by the amazing staff. They walked me through the method behind the madness and how to end up with a mouth-watering donut sure to satisfy your tastebuds and tummy. First things first, the donut dough/base is all the same yummy dense cake-style donut. Then once the donut is made fresh-to-order, (yes, they literally make them in front of you), they will dip it, dunk it, swirl it, top it, and drizzle whatever kind of yummy toppings you've chosen. (Don't worry if you don't know exactly what you want, they have pre-made selections you can choose from.) My favorite donuts so far are the S'mores, Chunky Monkey, Apple Pie, and Chocolate Strawberry. I love that the toppings are true to their name and not fake-tasting -- as in, the chocolate strawberry, tastes like you're biting into a juicy chocolate-covered strawberry! The Chunky Monkey has banana icing that tastes like real bananas (and then of course, it's topped off with peanuts and a chocolate drizzle). I may or may not have eaten like 4 donuts out of the dozen that I bought (you snooze, you lose... lose out on donuts, that is, hehe). They're so pretty to look at (see photo), and taste just as scrumptious as you'd imagine. It may be a bit out of your way, but trust me... definitely worth the trip and the calories! read more
