    Donuts

    Donuts were good, pretty good value for the big ones. The bathroom, however, was so dirty it grossed me out to even eat there.

    I love brown donuts!

    I was craving for some fresh donuts and Donut Bistro did not disappoint. 6:30am and the racks were full with donuts. The place was very clean and ready to serve. You should try their mochi donuts! I got the ube and pistachio flavor and omg they were good!

    Sprinkles, chocolate cream, Bavarian cream, and frosted cream (frosting filled donut)!

    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!!

    Fluffy, soft, and the most tastiest donuts i've ever had. I'm a Cali native but since moving to Reno NV, Donut Bistro is by far my favorite donut shop. && it's right next to dutch bros for a coffee and donut moment.

    Bear Claws (which actually are filled with fruit), cinnamon rolls, and apple fritters.

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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!

    Bring this box to work and instantly make new friends!

    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.

    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.

    Kolaches

    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.

We ordered a box of donuts holes and half a dozen regular donuts then went on our merry way. The donuts tasted mediocre at best, a little on the stale side but granted, we went there late afternoon, so the donuts weren't going to be fresh. Our visit would have been average, even uneventful had it not been for the rude young lady behind the counter. I would say her poor demeanor was isolated to just us but she was curt to the customers ahead of us as well. She was outwardly hostile, as if we were keeping her from something more important-- I don't know maybe we interrupted her from discovering the cure cancer or she was just having a bad day but she took it out on us by coping an attitude as soon as we stepped up to the counter and even rolled her eyes when we ordered, as if we were there to waste her time. (Sorry for bringing our business to this places and keeping you employed). Never again will we make the mistake of going this Dunkin' Donuts location, wow, no wonder the place was empty with that kind of awful, piss-poor customer service; we would have been better off going to a local donut shops where they at least value our business.
