    They have three rotating monthly flavors besides their regular flavors.
    Marcus D.

    1. This is our go to donut shop in Seattle. They have a good mix of classic flavors and fun creative flavors. The cinnamon sugar and twist are great versions of these classics. At the holidays the raspberry filled sufganiyot is our favorite. 2. The staff is always friendly and after just a few visits recognized us. And it's a fun light filled shop. 3. All their donuts are vegan but what's great is that you'd never know that. I'm pretty sure many people visit and never know. That's how good these donuts are.

    *CELIAC / GLUTEN FREE REVIEW At first glance, these donuts don't catch your eye; but MAN were they delicious! the display flavors are in a shared case, but the actual donuts are prepped in a safe space and kept separate in the back until ordered. The staff seem SUPER knowledgeable and I did not get sick! we got the macchiato chocolate chip and the flavor / moistness was great!

    We stopped here after the Ballard farmer's market for something sweet and tea. The donuts are super soft and not too sweet. For the friends that got the French toast, he didn't see the difference from a maple donut. The glazed with sea salt one was a great combo of sweet and salty. The last got an apple fritter and he said it was perfectly sweet. The service was awesome and felt like a friend was helping us. The ambiance is so cute with the neon signs and cute merchandise. Parking was rough because of the market so be patient.

    Really love the vibe and interior design of this place!! Staff were very nice and friendly to answer all our questions. Really like their icing because it was very dense, full of flavor, and delicious! But some of the dough was not chewy-like donut, it was more like a hardened bread that was overcooked or the dough got harden overnight type of texture. We really like the lemon-flavored cream filling inside the donut. Will definitely go back to try again with other types of donuts!

    Had NO IDEA this place was vegan. Just stopped in because we were craving donuts and they were honestly quite good! It you're vegan, definitely give this place a try. The woman working there was kind and gave us recommendations. Donuts were about $3-4 each. GET the blueberry fritter! It was like an apple fritter in texture but BETTER. Wonderful blueberry swirls of flavor throughout the dough and the glaze over the top was just perfect too. We weren't as a fan of the pop tart donut mainly because the strawberry jelly was a bit thick and artificial looking, but the dough itself was springy and light. They also have a variety of coffee and espresso options available. I will say the inside felt quite industrial, very concrete and plain feeling, and was also cold inside because the doors were purposely propped wide open on a cold winter day, so we ate our donuts quickly and left. All that to say this is NOT a place with ambiance that says come meet up with a friend here and hang out. It really feels like a place to stop in and grab a donut, but they are yummy!

    This place brings me a lot of joy!

    I love Dough Joy! I went here with my hubs the first weekend they opened and have been back another three times. We've tried more of their donuts and they've been great. My favorite so far is the cinnamon sugar raised donut. It's just perfect. My hubs doesn't have a fave yet but he had the raised French Toast recently and really enjoyed it. Service has always been friendly and the vibe here is happy and light. There's a lot of joy to be found at Dough Joy!!!

    Impeccable, warm service. Beautiful and equally delicious doughnuts where you wouldn't even know they were vegan!? 10/10 Space is beautiful and clean and cozy. Will definitely be back.

    This place is fricken awesome. I highly recommend dough joy for your donut needs if you're in this area! I loved the vibe, ambiance, customer service, workers, and the donuts. I absolutely love the bags they use for individual donuts. It's cute, eye catching, and good quality! I'm a huge fan of blueberry donuts so k had a blueberry glazed and a blueberry fritter! Both were soo good. I love the glaze on the fritter and the blueberry glaze was thicker than your average donut shop! I'm definitely coming back here.

    Probably one of the best doughnuts in town and you would never know they're vegan. I was bummed when their Ballard food truck disappeared, and then excited to see a store front from them a year or two later! It's a big store front with a handful of seating. Lots of variety of flavors. We got their Poptart and Matcha Strawberry. The Poptart didn't really taste like a Poptart, tasted like a regular vanilla doughnut with a strawberry filling. The Matcha Strawberry was great, the matcha was subtle but noted, and the freeze dried strawberry was a nice tart flavor.

    Nut allergy friendly! Vegan and nut free on everything. Amazing. I had to try it…read more I saw this cute spot on inKind after walking by it during several Seattle visits and finally decided to stop in after reading another review that mentioned that they are nut-free. Spoiler: Absolutely no regrets, I wish I had visited earlier! I ordered a six pack with a variety of their donuts and shared them with four friends, having a bit of each. I'm glad we did it this way because I don't think I could have finished some of these donuts solo. I also had a seasonal rose latte at half sweetness which was decent, but very wholesomely came with a little donut hole that was pretty good. I will say, they nailed all the flavors. If you like the flavor, probably a 4/5 donut overall. They just weren't always my cup of tea. So the scores here are for personal enjoyment more than anything - like I said, they're solid donuts. Sour Watermelon (2/5): Holy smokes, this one felt like it was punching your taste buds. It's almost confusing on how this is in a donut form. It's more like a sour patch kid. It's intense. I don't think I could solo one. Mango Tajin (3/5): Similar to the sour Watermelon, it's perplexing how this is a donut. It was a bit spicy and tangy, just as the flavor implied. Cookies & Cream (3.5/5): Get ready to get messy. It's crumbly. It's sweet. It's more like a normal donut. Matcha Strawberry (4.5/5): My favorite of the weird flavors of donuts. They really aced the matcha flavor and it's well balanced for a donut. Blueberry Fritter (2.5/5): This was pretty hyped up, but honestly I felt like the blueberry flavor was overpowered just by the sheer amount of sugar. Texture was good, it just felt so sweet. Overall, I'd definitely recommend for a fun experience. Share some different flavors! Paid via inKind with no issues.

    Mighty-O Donuts seems to be one of the few vegan donut shops that actually tries to make yeast…read moredonuts - most places are cake only. We decided to drop by after eating lunch in the area for a sweet treat afterwards, then ended up picking up a whole dozen... Some notes for a couple that I tried: Maple Bar ($4.99) - Hmm.. Not that fluffy or light. Instead or being airy, it's more dense and has a kind of springy chew. The glaze is sweet and gives off a heavy maple fragrance, an indication they use real maple syrup in the glaze. Maple bars from other places are usually disgustingly sweet with basically no maple flavor - this one is sweet but more well balanced. I think the texture is definitely different from a typical yeast donut. I wonder if it's just because it more difficult to make vegan yeast donuts vs cake donuts? It's a different type of yeast donut, but still very good. (4/5) Chocolate Peanut Butter ($4.45) - Good peanut butter flavor in both the topping and glaze. I think the donut base is also peanut butter but it could be contamination from the glaze. The base isn't very sweet and is kind of almost savory in flavor. The donut is dense but not crumbly and instead very moist. Not really crusty, so not too much textural difference. I think it's baked rather than fried. Still very sweet. (4/5) Devils Playground ($4.45) - The donut base is dense with rich chocolate flavor, and coated with a chocolate ganache of just the right thickness. I hate it when donuts just have a smear of topping to make the donut look attractive, but does barely anything flavor wise. This one, on the other hand, is richly flavored. (4/5) Chocolate Raspberry ($3.65) - This is my favorite, same chocolate cake donut base as above but with bright berry notes and specks of seeds. The tangy berries do wonders to temper down some of the sweetness. (5/5) French Toast ($3.65) - My least favorite by far. Covered with peanuts (which is fine), but the cake donut base or perhaps the glaze tastes heavily earthy, like an overload of cinnamon and nutmeg. (2/5) People who expect the exact same texture as a non-vegan donut, both the cake and yeast types, will probably be disappointed. If I just think of these donuts as their own thing, they're actually quite good. There's another donut shop that I prefer down the street, but Mighty-O Donuts certainly isn't a bad choice for a sweet treat.

I tried the passionfruit creme brulee donut, and though a bit pricey ($6), it was worth the money. The top of the donut had that perfect creme brulee torched top, and the passion fruit inside was perfectly tangy, which offset the fattiness from the donut itself. It wasn't very sweet, but I kinda liked that. The other flavors on the menu also looked great. I hear they rotate their menu often. There is nowhere to sit here, so be prepared to take your donuts to go. The shop does sell some beverages, like water or milk, to help you get in the donut mood. The service on my visit was fine.

I'd have to give the location a five out of five. Great staff were there making donuts when I was there. I'll start with the maple bar, which was packed full of flavor. I'll give it a four out of five: great texture, great flavor. The maple is really strong, stronger than my preference. I'll go to the buttermilk bar. The buttermilk bar was nice and dense, something great to dunk in a milk or a coffee. The Chocolate Ring, which is what they call it, I'd give it a five out of five: nice and pillowy soft in the middle, nice and had a crisp outside to it, and the chocolate was nice and rich and dark. Of course, you have the classic raised donut, which I had two of. Nice and fluffy in the middle, nice thin layer of glaze on the outside, pillowy soft, definitely a five out of five.

We were the only customers at the time, so we could really choose where we wanted to sit. We went to order and were redirected to the large screen to put our order through. I forgot to take pictures of our drinks, but we got a milk tea and black tea with 25% sugar. The drinks were fairly good and the boba was a bit chewy. It was also nice that ordering 6 mochi donuts came with a Thai iced tea, which I really liked! The mochi donuts were all good with a chewy and firm texture to them. None of them were too sweet, but some flavors were leaning more on subtle. Overall, it's a decent spot to check out if you're in the area!

    As I crave boba a lot and like to try new places, this is one of the newer boba shops in the…read moregreater Seattle area, located in Capitol Hill up in Broadway where a handful of good restaurants are. Location is excellent as you can go here as a dessert after your meal, but naturally this means parking can be a pain to get. I showed up around 7pm for boba, and I noticed that they already fully sold out of mochi donuts this early in the day. The store is really cute with lots of mochi donuts on the wall and a pink aesthetic that is perfect for friend hangouts or dates. I got the chizu matcha latte with stir fried boba, which came out to almost $9 total. Bold of them to charge a convenience fee on top of sales tax to make the drink super expensive. I opted for 50% sugar and there is absolutely no option to request less ice. A supposedly regular had to verbally flag to the worker to not add ice, which I probably should do, but at least please add it as an option so that it is more convenient. I guess they want to cut costs and give us less drink? For 50% sugar, I don't think they respected the customizations as I saw the worker just pour premade matcha latte to the cup and then added the cheese foam on top. When I tasted my drink, it was grossly sweet. Boba was undercooked so I ended up having to toss a lot of the boba out, and the boba was not cheap at $0.95 for the topping. Fortunately, when I got my drink, they had a few mochi donut circles I got to sample, and I am glad they sold out of the mochi donuts as the mochi donuts did not have the chewy texture that is present in mochi donuts. I dodged a bullet from committing to a pricey $4+ mochi donut - like other places charge way less for one for better quality
