"Charming shop offers fresh donuts and unique Texas-style kolaches". They had me at kolache. Charming shop Fresh donuts Unique Texas-style kolaches I am a fan of a donut. I can't say I've ever met one I didn't like. Heck, even the 1/2-priced day-olds have a place in my heart. Have you ever put a donut in the microwave for 20 seconds? Today, a volunteer was needed to pick up a dozen donuts for a meeting. I said, "You buy, I fly," and off I went. It's 8:45am, not too busy, and customer service is spot on. The display cases are full of beautiful sprinkles and glaze and peanuts and bacon... yup, I was eye-balling that Maple & Bacon! I requested a mixed dozen. Then I saw it... the sign read "Sausage, Jalapeno and Cheese kolache." Ooooh goodness gracious, it was the biggest kolache I'd ever seen. And Id never seen one in Reno or Sparks. They do grow things bigger in TX. I know cuz I lived in Deep East TX. But this is Sparks, NV, and I want to try this. I've eaten a kolache or 2 or 500 in my day. He even offered to warm it up before I asked. I wanted this to be good, no I wanted it yo great. To be the "Whete have you been since I moved back to NV?" it wasn't. I was disappointed. The amount of filling to bread ratio was way off, in my opinion. I expected a sausage, not 6-8 sausage "coins" wrapped in a 7" x 5" dough package. It was soft, and the color was so inviting. It looked like it was gonna be amazing. If you've never tried one, do try Donut Bistro's kolache... It's a soft, warm, savory option. Just make sure to also ask for the Maple & Bacon, cuz that one doesn't miss a point! read more

I've passed by this place for the past 4 or 5 years and never had the chance to stop in....until today! I needed some coffee and thought why not since I was in the area. It's a cute little store that also has small seating area if you decide to hang out for a bit! The interior lighting is just perfect. Not too dark, but not too bright! The service was great! He was young, but was friendly and very helpful! They have different sorts of donut flavors and some uniunique ones (maple with bacon for example) as well! I got half a dozen to try oout few different ones (plus some donut holes). They also have donut holes, giant donuts, apple fritters, and others! Their donut was soft and fluffy and they weren't too sweet (which I love). I also got coffee. While they didn't have a ton of options, they had different types of coffee as well as cappuccino. I am happy to say that I will definitely be coming back! P.S. The donut box is super cute!! read more

Because I did a DoorDash order, I am not able to review the ambiance or service. I can give credit that my order was on time and packaged well, if that helps. My delivery driver didn't have to wait long. This was my first time trying Donut Bistro. I have 3 favorite donut places, and this is now one. Mainly for the selection I received. I will need to try again for their other options. I ordered the Fancy Dozen. I wanted to treat my household because we have had a heck of a week. I wanted to be "fancy". And this was 1000% satisfactory!! Lots of filled donuts (fruit burritos)! Tasty cinnamon rolls and apple fritters! When I have a craving for big donuts, this will be my pick! read more

I grabbed a donut snack for my end of week treat. The chocolates frosted donut with sprinkles was a bit dry and had no chocolate flavor. The crumb donut was very delicious and airy! The checkout is always operated by a younger person who is nice. It's a donut shop so I don't expect to ever eat there but there are seats in case you choose to sit and snack. The booths are small and there are only about 5 of them. read more

Decided to treat my coworkers to donuts and Donut Bistro was the closest area to get some. The workers were extremely nice and recommended some tasty donuts when I didn't know which flavors to pick. The donuts weren't too expensive and taste good, as mentioned before. Even though I'm not really a donuts fan, I'd happily come back and get more just for the friendly service! read more

Donut Bistro - 6 pack of donuts and "Donut Bistro" sign - Donuts Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Adorable boxes. Service is everything you'd expect. The ambiance is lacking. Could use a few more decorations to prevent me from thinking I'm waiting in a nail salon. All jokes aside though, the food is decent. The blueberry donuts are slightly dry, but not as dry as L&L Hawaiian. Other than that all the donuts are delectable. I hope to try an apple bear paw one of these days. If they're in stock when you go there, please taste one in memory of me. There were only cherry ones one I went. Would recommend if you're looking for a pleasant donut. read more

I visited this place when it first opened well over 10 years ago. I feel like it had been bigger then, but I guess that's how things always do feel! It's got some sweet donuts, baked on very soft dough and a nice bonus of hot meat buns and a few other items. It's a quiet little spot to sit and watch the traffic. While they serve coffee it's not a power house coffee stop, but it's a good place to grab some sweet breads for the local neighborhoods surrounding it! read more

This is our neighborhood spot for treats on the weekends! This donut shop is a classic. They offer standard donuts or special options like maple bacon glazed, cherry/apple burritos and cinnamon rolls. Always fresh! If you see the kolaches, which usually sell out quick, I highly recommend the sausage, cheese and jalapeno. Pro tip: when they ask if you want it warmed up say YES! The service here is always helpful and friendly- its a wonderful way to start your morning. The inside was recently remodeled in the last few years and they keep the spot clean as can be for folks who dine in. read more

Customer service was terrible and unhelpful! I'm not sure if they don't care for black women or what the issue is. The rep wouldn't even attempt to help me as I was the 2nd person in the store. The area looks super dark and dim, just a waste of time. Donuts LOOKED shiny but beyond that I couldn't tell you anything since they wouldn't help me. I ordered through Uber eats and $60 later I got nothing! No donuts, no service, no help, nothing read more

The maple bacon donuts are amazing! Their cake donuts are better than most donut shops too. And the guys in there super friendly.

I'm a sucker for donuts and this Donut Bistro location is my favorite place to go! It's convenient to get to, though not always easy to leave due to the traffic on Pyramid Highway. The staff are always warm and welcoming. The donuts have always been tasty! My favorite is definitely the maple bacon! I remember having one YEARS ago in San Francisco and was beyond thrilled when Donut Bistro came to town and offered them! The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, but usually not busy so I can sit down and enjoy my donut and chocolate milk before heading off to errands. read more

A recent visit featured fresher donuts! The location is near several other businesses we patronize, so it's convenient for my husband to stop by. Donuts are an infrequent treat for me, so I appreciate it when they are fresh! read more

I'm not crazy into sweets, but once in a great while I have a craving, and on this night - I was jonesing for a buttermilk donut. They are rather plain, but my absolute favorite. So I went on Grub Hub and I ordered two donuts, and yes, when all what said and done it was $10 - but the heart wants what the heart wants. I got notification of the delivery (quickly) and low and behold, it was a box of 12 assorted donuts. Such a kind gesture, but one that would assuredly go to waste. I just wanted the one buttermilk donut! So, I did what anyone with a box of donuts would do, I gave them to the waste management guys, and they were so grateful! My donut was delicious, and I know they were probably just giving the rest so they wouldn't have to throw them away, and thank you! They didn't go to waste. read more

Donut Bistro - Donuts Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

What drew me to this Donut Bistro in Sparks of all things was I hear they offered Kolaches, an Eastern European version of a meat bun, similar I suppose to the Asian BBQ pork buns, but different European fillings. My Russian American friend was explaining them to me as she was the one that heard about them here. I pronounced them Ko LAA cheese ... like most around here seem to. I guess I was wrong as are most of the American attempts at saying this name. It's pronounced ko-la- sCHA' ... she almost didn't know what I was saying with my pronunciation .... then it was OH .... you mean ko-la -sCHA! The last syllable has sort of an "s" sound starting the CHA part. and the la in the middle is short, not LAAA but just "la". OK, so we get to Donut Bistro. They offer 3 kinds of "those meat buns", meatball, sausage with cheese and sausage with cheese and jalapeno. Damn, we're here at 7am on a Sat. and they're mostly sold out already! So, I got one of the sausage and cheese and one of the sausage and cheese with jalapeno. This place is BUSY! The small parking lot is filled with cars coming and going. We decide to get a seat and try these buns here while they're warm. I also got a bear claw. The ones they make here are not like other bear claws I ever had, these look just like human FEET! With five toes even! So looking at the Kolaches my friend comments, they don't look like any Kolache she's had before, longer and shaped like a potato. She takes a big bite into the one I gave her. "Holy sheet, vut da heal ez deez?" Um... what's wrong? "Who, da heal puts a jalapeno in a Kolache?" Good thing I googled Kolache before coming here. I found out Kolache for some reason is really big in TEXAS! and the version they have, has like a hotdog, cheese and jalapeno in it, sort of like pig in the blanket! So, this Kolache here in Reno is like the TEXAS version, not like the Eastern European kind with stewed meats, onions, cheese and sour cream. So, leave it to Texas to put jalapeno and cheddar cheese in this Kolache. The jalapeno packs a little bit of a kick too! Needless to say my friend said I could have the rest of the buns. Well, at $4.00 bucks each, I wasn't gonna throw them out ... I'll still eat them. Kolaches here at Donut Bistro may not be a fave of mine, prob won't get again, but glad I tried and was educated in what regional Kolache was coming to the USA ... Texas! Come to think of it, there are no jalapeno or spicy in Eastern European foods. We shared the bear claw, at least that was good, but surprised by apple filling in the bear claw, never had that before, it was fun to pull the "toes" off! ... I guess it's part of "regional" differences in food! "them thears Ko laa Cheese, pardner!" Google Texas Kolaches ... interesting. read more

Was a nice place but the prices were a little too high great doughnuts but cost two much for me

This is wonderful neighborhood gem! The donuts were fresh and delicious. If you are looking for a single, half dozen, full dozen or more. I would recommend calling ahead if you want a few dozen. The shop is small and it would be a shame if they ran out of delicious donuts. Donut bistro also has some cool items on the menu. The giant donut for starters. If you know someone that would prefer a donut to a birthday cake, this you should order the giant donut. Or perhaps you just want a giant donut for yourself.... either way, go for it!!! Donut bistro also makes Kolache. Sweet or savory. The next time I am in, I want to order the jalapeño and cheese kolache! They are served hot and ready to eat. Donut bistro also has you covered on coffee or any other breakfast beverages. The parking lot is tiny. If you are driving a large or long vehicle, I would recommend parking on the street. read more

First impression wait time was long. Which was understandable there was only two people working. Let's talk donuts the Apple fritter was to die for like seriously! The maple bacon is my absolute favorite, they actually use real bacon! The blueberry donut holes are a new favorite with the kids. Run, don't walk, run and go grab you some fresh donuts! read more

I love the fact this establishment has multiple choices on donut holes and several choices on coffee. Unlike some places where the choice of coffee is "yes, I do have brewed coffee" or "No." Got a glazed old fashioned and a raspberry filled donut. Not too sweet like some places and the raspberry was actually in the center of the donut. It's like they try harder. Parking lot is limited so be aware of that. Inside was kind of warm. HUGE selection of donuts. I'm positive there is something for you and your taste. read more

I am the biggest donut fan, and we decided to try this place on a whim today. The establishment is very clean and cute, and there is a big selection of donuts. I had a hard time deciding what to get, but ended up deciding on the cheesecake filled donut since it sounded unique. I was a little disappointed- the filling was more of a vanilla cream and I wouldn't have guessed cheesecake had someone handed me the donut without telling me the flavor. The dough, while fresh, tasted like old grease, which kind of overtook the other flavors. My friends all felt similarly about their donuts. I'll say I'm a big donut snob, but this was not my favorite donut experience in Reno. I would come back to try the Apple fritters, they looked delicious. The service was also wonderful! read more

On January 24 at approximately 7:40 AM I have never been so disrespected overlooked passed by as though I was not in the presence of the store. Two workers passed myself and my sister by without acknowledging or offering any help. After asking if he can help us, He left us to answer the phone and take care of the customer on the phone. word-of-mouth spreads widely. I will not be recommending in those that I know that frequent your establishment I will tell them not to any longer after I give them the spill on what happened with your two employees on this day at that time of morning. read more

If I'd known that it was let your toddler decorate donuts day, I probably would have refrained from ordering. Here are two prime examples! They look nothing like the picture that you see you when you order. The second problem is, when you order an assorted box, they don't give you a choice, and 2/3 of my family can't stand maple and chocolate, but 2/3 of the box were exactly that. Third, the blueberry donuts are not blueberry. They're pink on the inside, and maybe somebody thought about blueberries somewhere in the building and they thought that would pass, but not really at all. There's more fruit flavor in a bottle of Hint Water. I do not recommend them! Besides that, they bent my glaze bar, so now it looks like it tried to be a twisty doughnut that didn't quite meet at the ends to make a ring. read more

As ex-Oaklanders from 2005, we miss Chinatown. We had dozens of Formica tabletop joints we frequented with excellent food at a reasonable price. Donut Bistro in South Reno fits the bill.... excellent Chinese fare at what we guess is a reasonable price these days. And the size of the dishes are generous, leaving some to take home for a late night snack. In addition, I bought an apple fritter on the way out the other day that was big, lots of apple, and crispy. Our backup Chinese restaurant is Duck House across from Pepper Mill. read more

Don't be fooled - this isn't just a donut store, it's home to the most delicious meatball kolaches. I was so excited that I took a bite (or two) before snapping this photo. They also make two other versions of these buns: cheese/sausage and cheese/sausage/jalapeño. Either way, you really can't go wrong. They're warm, soft, and have great flavor. The kolaches often sell out by mid morning or early afternoon, so I'd recommend going early to get them. Totally worth the wait! read more

We have been coming here for years and the donuts have always been fresh with great service. Today we came in for the first time in couple months. It was horrible. Half the donuts were not glazed all the way. The cherry/apple burritos were burnt with doughy chewy centers. The filled donuts had hardly any filling. We are soo disappointed. The staff was a couple of different guys who were not friendly or very helpful at all. To top it off the restroom was absolutely horrifying. We won't be back after 10 plus years of coming here. read more

Donut Bristo is great. They do it right! I love sweets. This place hits the spot. Yeah, I should be better but from time to time I will spoil myself and man I love getting sweets. It is usually very fast to be in and out of here because there usually isn't alot of people here. The donuts are good and they fulfill my sweet tooth. They are conveniently located to my favorite tire shop so everytime I go there I give these guys a visit. Parking is easy enough, there is usually enough parking. I have never had any real issues finding a spot. They have milk here! Yes, you cannot have a donut shop without milk. Number one rule for me. But lucky they follow my rules Haha. It is usually an event. We get our tires done and we get tacos and donuts. Yeah, I know what a day! Haha. It makes me happy. Now I have to go hiking to workout all those damn calories eeehhhh!
