I ended up here after a late dessert craving. I came to YELP found an open desert spot just five minutes from my hotel, and learned that they have key lime pie on the menu. Walked in and two minutes later I was walking back out with a delicious slice of key lime pie. The service was excellent and quick. While waiting I noticed diners inside enjoying the donut shop ambiance, while eating delicious dessert. Yum! I was fork ready when I returned to my room and forget to capture footage of the pretty pie. It was so delicious. read more

Stopped by yesterday to grab some donuts and a couple slices of pie/cake. We arrived later in the day after dinner, so pickings on the pastries was slim, but they still had a decent amount of donuts to choose from. Decided on a 6 pack with glazed, chocolate coconut x 2, sprinkles, chocolate glazed x 2. They were placed in a bag rather than box (I should have said something!) so of course the chocolate ended up on the bag and the other donuts. Luckily the donuts were good, though! Also ordered a slice of key lime pie (a must!) and a slice of a chocolate/vanilla cake (moist and perfect if you can't decided if you want a slice of chocolate or vanilla cake!). In addition to pastries, they also ordered food (mainly looked like breakfast and brunch), which looked delicious. If we had more time in Destin, would definitely stop by again for a meal. read more

Donuts were very good and fresh! They had a few unique ones and I loved that they were not overly sweet. I really enjoyed the Key Lime Creme and the Devils Food Cake donuts! Took two stars because they served only black coffee with half and half creamer and sweet and low sugar. I didn't even drink my coffee... no other milk or sweetener options. Also, the menu only serves pork products. They didn't offer any chicken or beef substitutes for those who cannot have pork. We ended up skipping on the breakfast and just getting the donuts. We arrived at 7:30 am with 2 groups in front of us and a line was out the door by 8 am for donuts and dining. Dining room was packed upon arrival! read more

We noticed this place always had a line, so we decided to try it out. We did not know what they were famous for, but we all got something different and shared. I got the pistachio and the orange muffin. The orange muffin was my favorite. I think it was the favorite for all of us. The banana muffin was good too. We did try a plain donut. It was good. We shared a slice of Keylime pie and all of us thought that it was not tart enough. We felt like we were just eating a cheesecake. We took our food to go, but they do have seating and they sell breakfast. Parking is available on site and there was plenty of it when we went on a Saturday afternoon read more

If you are looking to fill your beach rental with a unique delicious donut - this is the place. So many wholesome, delicious choices without being a Krispie Kreme or Dunkin'. I suggest the powder vanilla with strawberry crème filling - yum. This is a definite donut stop for any trip. You donut what you are missing. You donut want muffin else. I donut what' I would do without their donuts. read more

First time I came was to try the donuts. Was not impressed. Not fresh. Second time we tried breakfast bc we read good things about it. WELL vegetable omelet came with no cheese and no flavor. Hash browns also no flavor. Biscuit was so dry it just crumbled when you try to add butter. Let me tell you about the 3 pieces of bacon for $6.75!!! The friendly hostess said they didn't have a kids menu but we could order smaller portions of anything on the menu. I asked the waitress if there was a half portion of the bacon (she could have told me it was only 3 pieces BUT she just told me no. To top it off our waitress hated being a waitress. Here's a tip.. you work for tips! I would know, I was a waitress for MANY years but I was a happy one. The only thing good here is the key lime pie. Go to Ruby Slipper instead you will be much happier. read more

Had a nice variety of donuts! We bought 1/2 dozen. Had a couple the next morning. Enjoyed them. Pleasant wait staff.

I had country ham, two eggs over, medium with hashbrowns and the biscuit and I added a side of gravy. My daughter had French toast and my husband had the "diet" plate. It was all very delicious. We didn't have to wait in line. I would say maybe 45 minutes outside the door, but it moved pretty fast and it was definitely worth it. read more

We were immediately greeted upon entry. Very friendly. Ordered quickly. Free parking Key lime filled - most excited about this but the key lime flavor was nowhere to be found Peanut butter cream - okay, wish peanut butter flavor was stronger. The choc tasted like a hershey rather than a richer choc Apple spice crumb - this was my favorite. Dough was perfect. It tasted as if a donut, cake and pie had a baby together. The apple pie filling was delectable. Love that it was dense, chewy, cake-y, fluffy donut $8.03 read more

This place is iconic. We raised our kids in Destin and this is one of our favorites. The original one on 98, you use to have to have cash. We use to take home a loaf of the apple walnut bread after we had the best breakfast. There can be a wait but it is well worth it. The key litpie is the best on the Gulf Coast. read more

Visited during the off season so had no wait and no issue parking. My sister and I each had a donut and sadly I must confess the donuts were not great. I had a blueberry donut that was dry and tasted just 'ok'. People around us had some good looking breakfasts but we were there for coffee and donut only. Coffee was tasty diner coffee and service was good. I will say we also carried out a key lime pie earlier in the week and that was fantastic. Just slightly disappointed in the donut received considering "donut" is in the name of the restaurant. read more

I would suggest coming here with no more that four people. If you have more than that you will absolutely not have enough room. The serving sizes are enormous and honestly I was happy to see that considering the prices. But come hungry and early because there is a wait. My biggest issue wad that our waitress really didn't do a great job checking in on us. While she was prompt in the beginning, once we got our food we never saw her until the check. Which was unfortunate when she charged me $3 for a kids sweet tea that I dumped out and never got the chance to ask for anything else. Now the biggest redemption was honestly the donuts and I kid of wished we just got those. But you live and you learn and know for the next time. read more

Third time visiting this location. Fresh donuts and muffins are quite delicious. My daughter and I both had omelets, wife had tuna salad on lettuce. Everything was very good with no complaints. Our server was super friendly. Quite a little wait outside, but they turn over the tables pretty fast, so the outside line that looked daunting, was not bad. If getting baked goods to go you can just walk right in. read more

Line moves quickly, so don't be afraid to stop if you see a line. The food was ok, nothing spectacular. And the prices aren't outrageous, we feed a family 6 for 50 bucks. Service was ok- but this place is busy so that was expected. The restaurant is neat with old photos, fish on the walls and swag. All in all it was ok. read more

More than your average donut shop. This place was amazing and very popular. We visited during the middle of the week and early morning, we still stood outside waiting but the line moved fast. They do have a separate line if you are just getting donuts. The menu has a little bit of everything with some specialties as well such as sweet potato pancakes with praline syrup, bendicts, omelets, tomato gravy & grits. We shared a stack of pancakes and the seafood omelet, all very tasty. Then of course we had to try some donuts, they were so fresh and so full of flavor but not overpowering. I wish this place was closer. I only wish we got to try the key lime pie. read more

This place is so yummy and filling! We sat at the bar and I have a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit and my mom had pancakes. Both meals were huge we could not finish them. However the taste was amazing and the biscuit was homemade. read more

Cute dinner! Breakfast was so good and best bacon I've ever had. Gets pretty busy so go early if you can

Had the donut hole twice on my recent vacay, once as carry out donuts and once dine in for full breakfast. We almost ate here for dinner one day too because the sandwiches sounded good. Donuts were great. I love a classic sour cream donut and they do them really well here. Process for carry out is fast and there is a separate line. Lunch was a little harder but still good. They have a double line system at the door. To the right for carry out, to the left up the ramp for dine in. They are ruthless about the seating and take the next person in line regardless of whether they are a party of 2 or a party of 6. I really like this setup because it seems to move the line faster than holding certain tables for certain party sizes. The only difference seems to be for the counter, and they will occasionally shout down the line looking for one or 2 for the counter. Our waitress was great and really knew the menu. She gave great suggestions. I split an "everything" with my daughter because she just wanted pancakes and I just wanted eggs and sausage. I was pleasantly surprised that the meat was not an or but an and, so I got sausage patty AND bacon AND ham. The ham was my favorite but all were good. My daughters are hash brown snobs so they said these were only ok, but I thought they were good -- just needed salt. Pancakes were massive and she only ate one. I ordered wheat toast to go with my eggs since she got the bread. The toast was only barely toasted so if you like it crispy, maybe ask for extra toasted. My husband decided to try the chili and I got a taste. It was very coney-like with huge amounts of completely disintegrated ground meat. Really greasy and spicy but very tasty. It is totally slinger chili and I loved it dolloped on my scrambled eggs. For the love of God, when you get done eating please leave quickly. This is not the place to linger over a 3rd cup of coffee (unless it's not busy). The donut hole is a must do, but I don't know if it's a must do more than once per vacay due to the long lines. Make the trip, wait patiently, enjoy your diner classic food done right, and get the heck out. read more

Great place for breakfast. Everything we had was delicious! I love Eggs Benedict but often places don't know how to poach eggs or the hollandaise sauce tastes off, but not here. The Eggs Benedict here was really good, perfectly poached eggs, oh and the hashbrowns were amazing; crispy and buttery. Some of the best pancakes I've had also. I need to stop and grab some donuts when I have room. Overall solid breakfast place! read more

super old fashioned breakfast joint! it gives off classic diner and bakery. we came in after church and there was only a 10 minute wait for a table of two. we ordered the crab cake benedict and the chili omelette. both were delicious and was brought out fairly quickly too. the home fries were to die for! we also got a raspberry filled donut-go and those were just as good as the meal! would recommend to anyone wanting a quick breakfast or meal here. they don't take reservations so it's first come first serve. read more

I stopped into Donut Hole completely by accident. I had a serious craving for something lemon and originally went to Dunkin' hoping for a lemon-filled donut. No luck. On my way home, I decided to stop at Donut Hole and see if they had one. They didn't, but the employee suggested a lemon poppy seed muffin. While I was waiting, I spotted a lemon cake and decided to give that a try instead. Best decision I made all day. The lemon cake immediately reminded me of home. I'm originally from Northern New Jersey and grew up surrounded by incredible Italian bakeries. Since relocating, I've struggled to find cake that captures that same quality and texture. This cake did. The buttercream was light, airy, and fluffy instead of the heavy, dense frosting that so many bakeries use. The cake itself was equally light and full of bright lemon flavor without being overwhelming. Every bite felt like something straight out of the bakeries I grew up with. Unfortunately, I may have created a new problem for myself. While I only stopped in to satisfy a lemon craving, I saw several other cake flavors that looked just as tempting that I just try. If you're looking for cake with a genuinely light, whipped-style buttercream and a bakery-quality texture that's becoming harder and harder to find, Donut Hole is absolutely worth the stop. I haven't even tried the food yet, but based on the lemon cake alone, I'll definitely be back. read more

Best donuts in Destin B.D.I.D!!!!! To be as busy and popular as they are they keep that line moving!!! Great customer service

Had a short wait of about 20 minutes or so. Well worth it! Our party of 3 decided to sit at the Bar to shorten the wait. Great service from start to finish! I decided on the Two eggs and Chicken Fried Steak. Excellent choice! One of my best meals of our trip so far! Even grabbed some donuts on the way out for later. Overall great experience. We will be back! read more
