Should be called Day Old Donuts because they were hard and dense. The coffee was just barely warm. The positives: Blueberry Donut and the Staff were friendly. read more

Donut was stale ....,service was good but not crowded...probably because they serve stale donuts

The coffee was good, but the jelly doughnut was horrible at this location. I've had jelly donuts at the other location where the jelly was plentiful and delicious. I could barely taste the tablespoon of jelly in the large stale doughnut. I was so disappointed. I wonder if the other location is as good as it was when I ate there last. read more

Good donuts but service was a little slow. The location on military cutoff seems to have faster service and the donuts tasted fresher when I went there. I tried the frosted strawberry, sour cream and coffee roll. They had good flavor but tasted a little harder than they should. read more

Donuts and Strudel are a real treat and huge. Love their coffee. I believe it's Java Estates. Great crew. You may have a short wait however it's worth it read more

We were the only customers yet most of the tables were dirty and hadn't been wiped. There was a dying plant next to the coffee station and there was trash all over the floor next to the coffee station. The "best buy" date on the chips was several weeks past. The sandwich was good but the atmosphere left a lot to be desired. read more

The team here is friendly for sure! But for this place to be known for donuts, they lacked freshness and flavor. We tried the sour cream donut (surprisingly good taste, just not fresh) and the apple cider donut. I expected a warm fresh donut but they were not soft and definitely not warm. Maybe the breakfast items are what make this place but not the donuts for sure. read more

Been a year since we been here and MUCH has changed. Prices are jacked up, no specials anymore, donuts are dried out, and glaze is barely present. This has fallen into the theme of "Pay more for poor quality and less" read more

My sister and I just enjoyed some absolutely bangin sandwiches and doughnuts. Also the service was great!!!

18 minutes almost 20mins to get a little mini croissant slider I was literally about to cancel my order cuz I needed to go then they said it would be out shortly and they brought out a big family order and then mine im not sure if they only have one cook but come on why not make the slider that'll only take a few mins to make cuz I really dont think it takes 18mins almost 20mins to warm up a small mini croissant with a sausage patty & cheese I will not be returning delicious great Donuts friendly staff but do not expect fast service be ready to spend some time in here read more

This is my first time trying Donut Inn, at their new 2nd location. Arrived 30 minutes at 7am on a Monday after their opening. There was no one else but shortly afterwards a steady stream of people started coming. Inside there are four small tables, counter stool seating, and a handmade wood dining booth. Once you enter, all of the available donuts are in a display case on the far left next to the wall. It's cheaper if you buy a half dozen of donuts and just a teeny bit more cheaper if you buy a dozen vs buying individual donuts. They offer breakfast bagels and sandwiches, breakfast specials, oatmeal, lunch sandwiches, both cake and yeasted donuts, tea, and coffee. Bagels are from Beach House bagels but they make their own croissants. Coffee is from Java Estate, not far from here in NC. Main breakfast sandwiches start with two eggs. You have an option of adding what you like, including meat, veggies, and choice of cheese on your choice of bread. I ordered an egg and cheese croissant sandwich to-go. It was wrapped in foil and packaged into a brown bag. The croissant automatically comes toasted. The sandwich was simple, but delicious. It came with two perfectly round-shaped eggs, topped with melted cheddar cheese in a flaky, buttery toasted croissant. For donuts, tried the strawberry glazed, maple glazed, coffee roll (which comes with upcharge), glazed croissant, long John chocolate with Bavarian cream filling, and an apple cider donut. All donuts were good. My most favorite ones were the maple glazed, glazed croissant, and the coffee roll. Didn't really notice much of a difference in the yeasted dough compared to Wake and Bake. The apple cider donut was a cake donut-It wasn't as dense as Duck donuts. There were no pieces of Apple in the apple cider donut but plenty of cinnamon flavor. Ordered a single shot of espresso, which I thought was good by itself with no added sugar or cream. I don't usually drink expresso so can't compare to other coffee roasters. This is a great place to get a donut and a breakfast sandwich. Hope they open a future location in Monkey junction or Pleasure island, which would be closer to me! read more

Quiet music playing in the background as you walk into the shop. It's a donut bar, and a deli. You can get breakfast and lunch options. All their donuts are made fresh daily. They even have a donut of the day, and an option to give an idea for donut flavor. They have several coffee options as well as a soda fountain machine that you can pick from 6 different flavors. I am trying their blt with avacado spread on a chipada bread roll. It was delicious. 10.95 for a sandwich chips and drink. The thick cut bacon was crispy and just paired well with the tomato and avacado spread. Their donut selection was picked through but you can always find something you will enjoy. Just knowing it was made fresh daily here brings me coming back time and time again. read more

Great place for a doughnut and a bagel. Get the giant apple fritter and a dozen to go.

Ever since the ownership changed there has been a noticeable change in quality. The icing literally flakes off the donuts. There are rarely any special donuts for the kids. If you don't get there before 10am on the weekend they will be sold out of almost every basic donut. In addition to that the actual restaurant is grungy inside and isn't well maintained like it use to be. Overall sad at what has happened to this spot. read more

My daughter and I have a Sunday tradition to go get our favorite freshly made yeast raised donuts at Donut Inn. The place is small but packed with a large menu of donuts (cake and yeast raised) and breakfast and lunch sandwiches. I have never had any of the lunch items but we do the bagel Sammys and some donuts every time we go in. They do a daily special donut too which is normally something unique and/or related to the season or holiday. They have had peppermint donuts, pumpkin spice, strawberry cheesecake and so many other delicious options. They also have the option to have sprinkles on your donuts (which my daughter of course has to have) and other toppings like the bacon on the maple donuts. They do have a pretty good coffee selection also. Ranging from normal coffee to speciality items like iced lattes. Overall, we love this location because of the value and quality of the donuts but also because of the atmosphere. The staff are always on top of things, kind, and helpful. Best donut spot in Wilmington in my opinion. read more

Unless you want to become a total addict you might want to skip this place-lol! Because I promise you will become addicted to their donuts! Seriously though, not sure if they're adding crack to the donuts here but they are insanely amazing, they close at 3 PM each day and on occasion they will close early because they run out from all the "donut love" as they so adoringly call it! The owner (or manager perhaps?) Has been on site a couple of times and he was so delightful. Every single staff member has always seemed like they are above and beyond happy to be there, which tells me it's probably a great place to work and this probably adds to why the food is so great. They offer bagels and sandwiches/breakfast sandwich types & coffee too - but I'm so addicted to the donuts I've never tried any of the sandwiches! read more

I'm neutral on this one. My wrap was good. It could have used some salt and pepper but it was packed with egg, chicken, cheese and bacon. My daughter enjoyed her BLT. The service was fine. The major problem was the lack of cleanliness. The floors and baseboards were absolutely atrocious. There was food caked in the sides and the main floor was unfinished and black from dirt. My daughter said the bathroom smelled like old rotten pee. We will not go back because I will not eat ina place that dirty. read more

A great new donut shop placed in portersneck, wilmington. They've got a great selection of freshly made donuts, that have great flavor and texture. The prices are medium, not cheap, not too expensive...but it is a very good place to grab some donuts from. I like to but donuts by the dozen from there to bring to meetings, get together, etc...everyone is happy when I do. Check em out sometime!! read more

I love the veggie breakfast wrap soooo good! My issue is when you preorder it never ready whenever you get there. This wasn't just once or twice but probably closer to ten times. They were across the street from our office so we would order ahead of time for our team. They also don't pre make the drinks which is nice except when you're in a hurry and expect it to be ready. The staff is kind and the food is yummy. But I had to deduct one star for efficiency. read more

I love the donuts here. High quality and excellent service. Very nice workers. I prefer glazed but all look delicious

Slowest service in Wilmington, guaranteed! Food is average and the coffee is below that.

Don't get me wrong, this place is superb. HOWEVER! Fixed you online ordering. Because when I call in the kids you having working can not get the simplest request completed i.e. toast the Bagel. Your IT department needs an upgrade. Or I'll go somewhere else. Btw, most of the time the kids don't even answer the phone read more

Please save your time and money by not going to this place. The employees are all irresponsible and do not care about their jobs or customers. The donuts taste good but are clearly not fresh. The food is awful and takes a horrendously long time to come out. Not to mention the fact that several items are somehow sold out or out of stock consistently, even if you go in the morning. read more

Friendly staff and delicious food. Best Donuts in ILM. Love the bagel sandwiches! Bagel Sammys

Great donuts! Friendly staff. Wonderful variety of breakfast foods and not just donuts.

We went to get a quick bagel around for this morning. SIX people working, waited 15+ minutes for our order, was only two people inside besides us. Croissant sandwich had egg shell in it and bagel was decent. No apology offered for the wait and not worth $10+ for a bagel and a egg sandwich. read more

Wow, was looking for coffee since the Starbucks at Harris teeter closed. And found this gem! I love donuts and bagels and coffee. Was pleasantly surprised when I popped in. The sour cream donut was huge! The bagel was great. And coffee was wonderful! read more

We love visiting this place. The egg and cheese is delicious and my kids love the donuts. The staff is always kind and friendly. Highly recommend for a quiet coffee with a friend or always interesting donut stop with your kids. read more

I stopped in with my son for lunch today. Primarily because I need wifi to get some urgent work done. The staff was SUPER friendly and my son had a blast. He went nuts over their coffee roll. Really cute atmosphere and good music. I had an everything bagel with turkey and pesto. It was delicious! I do prefer a little salt on my everything bagels and no caraway seeds, but delicious nonetheless. Definitely going back next time in Wilmington!! read more

The donuts were really good and my husband said the bagel sandwich was good but it was expensive.....$27 for a dozen donuts and 1 bagel sandwich. Also, it took 21 minutes to get the sandwich. Food was good but overall not worth it for me to return. read more

Terrific donuts, bagel sandwiches, coffee and service ...even when you have to wait a minute or two. Moved from TX. Been a frequent breakfast eater here for a week. Kids and adults satisfied!! read more

The menu states 3 egg omelet. I ordered an omelet with veggies only. No cheese. I received my order, 2 pieces of bread with veggies. When I said I ordered an omelet the young lady told me that the menu was outdated. They don't have omelets anymore. Terrible service. Terrible communication. As I sit here in the restaurant, the young lady is in the back talking about me to the other staff. Customers can also hear her. read more

Tried this place twice now to support a local spot and have gotten two or three day old stale and hard donuts both times- for 2$ a donut its not worth it, yall are a whole donut shop- please make them fresh daily, hard donuts are not it read more

Today, my first trip to the new donut shop pleased me beyond expectations! A half dozen donuts and bagels of different varieties were all excellent. No breakfast sandwich is on the experience list yet, but it certainly will be. For now, the place gets five stars for the donuts and bagels. read more

Absolutely love the Donut Inn, not just for the incredible donuts but also for the fantastic staff and owners that run the joint. The sour cream donut (pictured) is my all-time favorite, but really you can't go wrong with any of the donuts; just tried the apple cider donut as well (also pictured), which was very good. The breakfast sandwiches are phenomenal and made to order fresh, and the coffee is essential for dipping your donut. Ten out of ten, would highly recommend, seeing as this is one of the highlights of my visits to Wilmington. read more

It breaks my heart to leave a low review for this place because the food is so damn good. However if you order anything other than donuts be prepared for a ridiculously long wait. 10, 15, 20 minutes for a bagel or a sandwich. Every. Single. Time. Last time I was there I accounted for this and ordered a small breakfast sandwich and told them I'd be back in 15 minutes. I came back 30 minutes later and the sandwich still wasn't made! I had to wait another 10 minutes. And then it came out wrong! I Didn't say anything but this place has to do some thing about the wait for food. If this was in New York by a a subway station or in an airport this place would be out of business. No one should have to wait that long for breakfast food. Donut Inn please figure this out. I really like your food but you got to go faster. read more

Walked in with 1.5 hours left in the business day on a rainy day with 6 other friends and they weren't serving hot food. Let down to say the least. Won't be coming back. Donuts looked good but they did not receive my business. read more

Why not do omelettes on the weekends? Had them on the weekends before from this place. Now they refuse to make them. Donuts are good, but to not offer a full menu on the weekends I'll just go someplace else. Honestly the busiest time for a breakfast place is the weekend. Why not honor your full menu during your busiest time. My sister has three breakfast & lunch restaurants. This would never fly there. Good luck moving forward with your broken business model. read more
