This place is definitely a gem and can be easily missed when passing by! It's not super fancy on the outside or in, but their donuts are absolutely the BEST. Not a huge fan of their coffee or some other dishes. They also always have a BOGO deal on Uber Eats so it's worth ordering.. however there is a donut minimum of half a dozen when ordering. In person you can buy as little as 1. Some years passed since my last review, and I have not had any bad experiences since then. Their donuts are always fresh, they take cash only in store, but their donuts are so cheap, but never in quality. Depending on the type of donut you get, it may cost a bit more, but a GREAT price point. This place really is a gem in Brooklyn. read more

**CASH ONLY** Good ol' reliable!! Located right next to the Ave U Q train, this has been a neighborhood STAPLEEE. I grew up going to this spot for their $1 donuts (at the time). I remember every Halloween, I looked forward to stopping here bc they gave out donuts too! This spot always hits your cravings, from sweet to savory. I usually go for a classic bacon & egg on a roll. On this visit, I called ahead and asked for salt, pepper, ketchup, but it didn't seem like they added it to my sandwich, unfortunately. This spot even has burgers, chicken sandwiches, TACOSS, and literally any diner-esque dishes you're craving. No-frills spot. I do question their cleanliness at times, but as long as I don't see anything sus, I'll enjoy my food!! Lol Classicc diner spot, with food slightly too greasy and too salty, but it's satisfying nonetheless. And did I mention that it's open 24 hours!? LOVE THAT!! read more

This place will be the reason I am not meeting my weight loss goals... 13 assorted donuts for $12, where else can you get that? Their selection depends on what time you get there. I went once at 9PM and they only had glazed and coconut donuts left and once at 10AM and they had the whole gauntlet. Service was amazing, was greeted quickly both times and they were happy to help you pick a mix or you can choose any that you want. The shop is small with limited seating and it is near the bus stop and train station so I can imagine that they get busy during certain times. Overall, great old fashion type diner that I hope to visit again and try their other options. read more

These are the classic doughnuts that exists in memory and of many visits to Woolworth's, food coffee carts and other doughnut shops that no longer exist. This one is like an antique auto! Worn with age, and a little refurbishing in the diner is all that is needed! Still running after all these years and a keeper! The favorites are all here from Boston Creme, sugar or powered jelly and jelly centers, chocolate cake doughnuts, bow ties, chocolate frosted, and glazed! Some of these I have not seen in a while like the jelly centered. The jelly filling is grape! The doughnuts do not have the old oil greasy aftertaste and are at prices I have not seen in ages! One doughnut costs $1! Yes!!! This proves that every other classic doughnut is overpriced! These are the doughnuts I grew up with. There are the spinning countertop chairs that only old time diners have! A scratched up and foggy doughnut counter that have spent many years holding these fried treats! Bakers dozen is $12.00! This is a cash only business. Truly old school! read more

Food: This hidden gem on Avenue U in Sheepshead Bay has some of the best doughnuts in NYC! Doughnuts are always fresh and soft. They have many varieties including chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry frosted with rainbow sprinkles, coconut, apple crumb, chocolate glazed, glazed, sugar, boston bream, jelly, bavarian cream, powdered jelly, eclairs, crullers, and more. Doughnuts are $1 each or 13 for $12 (buy 12, get 1 free). They also have other pastries, muffins, brownies, and more, but their doughnuts are the best. This place serves savory diner-type food and breakfast sandwiches, but I wouldn't recommend it. I only come here for the doughnuts. Service: Service here is a hit or miss; some staff are friendly, but others are horrible. Ambiance: This is a very old and run down place because it's been here for decades. There is counter seating and a few tables on the side. It's not good for large groups. Overall, I would highly recommend this place for their doughnuts only! read more

The most delicious affordable donuts especially the chocolate was my favorite! Donuts are sooo soft and fresh and flavorful. A pretty small and crowded ordering area but it gets the job done, there's a reason why they've been in business for over a decade as far as I know! read more

This place is for the birds. Shaikh's Place has a passive aggressive line cook that has people issues when they order food. If you don't like your job. Maybe you should do something else like construction. Nasty attitude and talking shit in Spanish doesn't work because people who do look Spanish speak it fluently. read more

I've held off on this review because I really wanted to gatekeep. But, in the spirit of Gemini season, I shall be nice and put yall on. This spot is my go to for cheap and tasty food. Whether it's donuts, agua frescas, fried chicken, a bacon egg and cheese, tacos, or a steak dinner, Shaikhs never misses really. And you cannot beat their prices man. It's sooooo refreshing to see a spot that's been a neighborhood staple for years not raise prices dramatically, even with the inflation going on. I've ordered quite a lot over the years so adding every picture would be a chore, but my most recent meal was their ribeye steak dinner with yellow rice and salad. $20! I did put it in the air fryer so it would be piping hot and added some of my favorite steak seasoning on top (just cause I'm extra) but it was a decent meal as it was. Don't get me started on their fried chicken. I ordered it once on a whim, it was so cheap that I felt even if it turned out to be terrible, it wouldn't be that much of a loss. $6 on Doordash for 3 pieces. THAT SHIT WAS DELICIOUS. It's been a staple in my household whenever I'm not in the mood to spend $30 at Jollibee. Idk wtf they're doing in there man, how they manage to pump out so many different types of food while maintaining consistency and good flavor is a feat. read more

I ordered delivery from here after my friend gushed about how soft the donuts are. I decided to get a dozen donuts and chopped cheese. The chopped cheese was buy 1 get 1 free so I thought why not finally try it for the first time. And boy oh boy, i was really surprised how much I liked the chopped cheese. It's almost like an elevated version of a cheeseburger. I thought their savory food was pretty good for a business called donut shoppe. I couldn't try all the donuts in one sitting but I got to try the Boston creme and glazed so far. The Boston creme filling is a little bland but I liked how the whole thing wasn't too sweet. Same with the glazed donut. I don't think they're comparable to artisanal donuts but they're pretty solid. read more

This was my first time here, honestly was disappointed. Environment was quiet. Line was midway out the door. It was noted the decor was outdated. The counter tops and floors have chips. The floor appeared it needed to be mopped. We only got a dozen they had 12 donuts for 12 dollars with an additional one free. The lady that was collecting my donuts was observed slightly impatient and didn't allow for corrections to switch out donuts. The donuts were not anything special. In the dozen we got 1/2 were soft and the other 1/2 were not as fresh. The flavors were plain even though we got a variety. I unfortunately will not be going back. read more

Donut Shoppe - Super cool old school donut shoppe - Donuts Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This donut shop has been here probably choose to 5 decades and it's still going strong despite the neighborhood demographics changing which is a testament to the quality and value of their donuts. Go try and find a place in NYC to find a quality cake donut for $1. Everything has a great mouth feel, perfect combo of soft inside with an nice outer crunch/crust. The filling whether is it cream, jelly, or fruit is outstanding. The coffee is strong and $1.50 a cup. read more

I wake up craving breakfast from them! Omelettes are perfection. My bacon is exactly as I requested. Portions are hearty. And I get a generous amount of orange juice. I generally walk out with six donuts as well. This place is awesome!!!! read more

This donut shop has been around for many years. They dont just sell donuts and coffee but also have sandwiches and even burgers. I can only speak for their donuts since I havent tried any of their other foods and I must say they are pretty good especially considering the price! Where else can you find a good quality donut for $1 these days. The problem is the service. Every time either I or my son been there the servers are very unpleasant. Its like they go out of their way to be rude and give you these donuts as if their doing you a huge favor! read more

Donuts are very good, especially the sugar donuts. Ambience is dirty and outdated but it doesn't really matter to me because, I don't sit there to eat. Tacos are a big NO NO. Now... Service is the WORST in this place. From the woman to the old man, they need to go or work at the kitchen. Please learn some manners and if you don't like your job, go find another one. read more

don't expect frills, or a bunch of fluffy Seattle hi how are yous? This place is busy and obviously time is precious. Here's the deal - I don't know the last time I bought a doughnut for a dollar. I'm talking a number of years, here. More than 10. Today I said six please. your pick-- and when he handed me the box, I thought he said six dollars, but I didn't believe it so I asked him again with 40 bucks in my hand. How much do I owe you and he looked at me incredulously and said six bucks and I said get out of here no way. That's the price now here's the value - I would go there every day if I lived close. Seriously they would see my face every morning if I lived closer, I would weigh 400 pounds. I ate all six of those donuts within three blocks stuff, my face and had to convince myself not to go back for more. When I was leaving after I figured out, it was inexpensive and he was like yeah although no words were said - I mentioned coming back later I said how late are you up because I don't know I don't know and I said no he says I don't know. Honestly, expect him or whoever to calm whatever Uber driver has overstepped that threshold to Chase after someone in the kitchen about where his precious order is - it's with the man upfront and he's got it under control. Parking is hard but as a city, what would you like? The nice thing to know I guess anyway for some people is there was an NYPD explorer parked out in front in a no standing zone of course when I drove by and I think I saw more than my fair share of cops walking out of that place before I came in. My guess is nobody's gonna mess with you much except for maybe to steal your donuts. Doesn't matter of fact, there was a neighborhood guy with his cleaning in his hand. I'd walked past him and then taking the wrong turn. I was so excited about six dollar donuts. I forgot where I parked when I turned around. He created me and said I just wanna make sure you're OK . Real New Yorkers can tell when a stranger is amongst them, and they're honestly some of the best people I've ever met. As I was driving out of town, a fellow rolled down his window and said what do you think? I said I think it's a circus on Saturday. A circus.. He said yeah you never know what you're gonna get - I got one Bavarian one Applefield and four glazed with different sprinkles or combos or half combos and I couldn't even tell you what they hardly tasted like because I shoved my face. Thanks for the donuts, sir. I promise I'll be back. I just don't know if it'll be now or 10 years.- I don't know... I don't know... Currently in Delaware thinking about turning around and parking in front for tomorrow morning! Go buy three dozen and give them to all of your friends. It's the cheapest thing you'll ever do, and totally worth it! Please don't focus on the price - he'll probably raise it because he already knows they're good- they've been there like 60 years. And don't forget to tip . Sounds like everybody forgets to tip. This is New York for crying out loud. Happy new year guys -- read more

Late night spot alert for all the Yelp Owls like myself! This place is awesome. They are open late and have the best donuts in town. I walked into there recently to check it out. It's a small hole in wall place, that gives off an old school NYC diner feeling when you walk in. I loved the service, the people who work there are great. They are friendly and fast and serving up great food all night. I love the grilled chicken quesadillas. They are huge and well worth it. The donuts are super fresh and tasty. Do not walk out of here without tasting one! I myself am a fan of the jelly donuts in particular. Check it out! read more

Cash Only! They have a great variety of fast food, burgers, tacos, quesadillas, sandwiches, wraps, bagels, donuts, breakfast platters including waffles and pancakes too! Great affordable prices. It does get quite busy during prime meal time, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Service is still fast & efficient. I come back often for their donuts. The donuts are pretty good and exceeds my expectations. Most of them are light and fluffy. Love the glazed, sugar, chocolate frosted, apple crumb, and cinnamon roll the most. Glazed Cruller & Cinnamon Sugar Donut were too dry. They were like cake like donuts and was not as tasty. The menu is kind of all over the place. You won't see everything they have in one spot. Donuts don't have labels and it could be overwhelming if ordering for the first time. They're open 24/7 is what I absolutely love. It's right next to the Q Trajn Avenue U. There's no parking right in front , but plenty of street and meter parking spots around the neighboring blocks. read more

I wish I could give them a -1 star review. What disgusting manners their workers have. I understand the owner honestly doesn't give a crap about customer service , as well as raving fans experience, since prices are so low and they're open 24 hours. But please, somebody needs to oversee things from time to time. Okay, here we go. Friday morning, I'm all excited stepping out of the car to put money in the meter, and the moment I'm putting my foot outside, I step on something soft and creamy, and my boot is gliding through some slippery surface of dog poop. Not a small dog, not even a Great Dane, but a dog the size of a horse. I don't want to go into more details since we're talking about a donut shop, not the cleanliness of the streets in Brooklyn. Luckily, the donut shop was right around the corner. I just want to mention that I come here pretty often, at least 3 times a week. What always disturbs me at the shop is that the owner/manager/register guy or the "I'm a big boss" man would never lift his eyes to acknowledge your presence with a simple smile or just a small question like "how may I help you?" which would be just enough to show that he cares. But instead, it's always "how many?" "How many?" What? How many donuts, or how many boxes, or how many coffees, or how many times I'm planning to come back this week to deal with your rudeness? So, as always, I was planning to buy 1 box of old-style jelly and cream donuts with sugar powder for my kids and their cousins, and a second box of assorted donuts to take to work. But this time, I asked for napkins prior to anything to wipe my shoe and was given one, literally one piece of tissue. When the second was dragged along, he separated them and only gave me one. So, I politely asked for more, since I not only didn't want the poop to smell in the shop but also didn't want to take that with me in the car. But he just ignored me and started to assist another customer. So, I waited and then asked once again for a few tissues to clean my shoe outside and received no response directed at me. That was the last interaction I ever had with this donut shop, through their most attentive and full of customer service experience employee of the year. See you... read more

Local donut place with cash only. Good for breakfast and very cheap. I got eggs and croissant, hot coffee and end up with ice lemonade.

How does a place like this exist?... they are open 24hrs a day... not to mention their donuts are $1. There's more they also serve some of the best food off the skillet. Chopped cheese, Philly cheese steak, burgers, breakfast, pancakes, tacos, oh my! The donuts are so light and delicious, I am embarrassed but I've been going every morning for the past week. I think I may need to join a gym ASAP. The food there is cheap but amazingly prepared by 2 talented men. I've gone at 1am and also at 10am-2pm and these guys are quick and make everything so tasty. Strawberry glazed, coconut glazed, crullers, apple filled, Jelly, chocolate frosted, are probably the best ones. I kind of don't want to leave this review but I have to because wtf my guy you spend like 7 dollars and you get a BEC on a roll 2 donuts and a coffee.... unfreakingreal.... read more

Donut Shoppe - Donuts.. - Donuts Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is a great old school donut shop, one of the few left. The donuts are equal to any traditional donut and the atmosphere is real.

They have DELICIOUS+FLUFFY donuts (the apple crumb pie used to be my favorite but now my new love is their glazed toasted coconut), great coffee (they rotate the coffee often so you can always expect fresh coffee) and a wide menu with standard plates like bacon cheese burgers, tacos (beef is delicious with potatoes) and fried fish sandwiches. They are really friendly, speedy and are always busy! This place has old diner vibes mixed with going to a friends house and their family makes you a quick meal and I love it! I'm not someone that loves sweets but I always get one donut to go, especially if I see them restocking my type :) P.S. this gem is 24 hour (or at least used to be). read more

Pleasant trip to an old-fashioned doughnut shop where you can grab 1, 2, or a dozen donuts to impress sweet-toothed folks. Per a family member's request, I was to get whatever I can lay my hands on so naturally, I got 13 donuts and 1 danish; any more and I won't be able to juggle them and an umbrella. Yes, I ventured in a rainstorm to get these darn donuts. Staff is friendly and the shop is charming. We were slightly disappointed with the danish but loved the donuts. Uncertain if I would stop by for savory food based on people saying it can be skipped and to just focus on the sweets so I'll leave it up to the frequent patrons to inform us if it'll ever be a must-do! read more

I love there donuts and muffins. Much better than Dunkin'. Only problem a complete complement is only available afternoon.

I've been coming here since 1986 for the Cheap and fast breakfast platter, donuts and occasional grilled cheese to go. The negatives are: they're very dirty grade C terrible rude attitude from the tall guy w glasses. He acts like police or army sergeant insulting people under him. Only were not in army or jail. We're customers. I'm a good tipper and very polite. Why fight with customers all the time? If u hate your job or life get another job. Don't take your frustrations out on your customers. We have our own problems. Fresh donuts are good. Not 3 day old especially on weekends. They badly need a renovation, new stools, chairs, No menus. Walls are falling apart. They were definitely better in 1980s. I'm finally done with them. There are many better options read more

I used the app "Too Good to To" to order a $4.99 grab bag. Upon arriving back here after a 4y reprieve, everything about this place except the sign has changed since it's former days. It has very few donuts now and is mostly a Hispanic breakfast counter with some all day items. It's got no donut shop feel and the crowded conversion of waiting space to a sit down counter makes the interior cramped even for mere pickups. Most trying was a very long wait with dismissive service just to get even an in app order picked up. The chaotic lack of a queue makes for a very difficult pick up competing to one up any one else regardless of who arrived first. Civility is sketch along with the new business model. After finally commanding the attention of Not only the first attendant who was obviously dismissive of my order but the superior who mildly paid me attention and then I finally asserted myself as not to be just hanging out able to be ignored, so he went to the back and got one oversized bag of 20 old breakfast rolls which molded the next day which was a complete loss (see the video). I did not have time to even donate them to the church. Morale of true story is don't come here for donuts. Just generic bread. read more
