    Our favorite donut shop in town forever and always! They have the best customer service and the best mouthwatering donuts you can get in Reno. The employees are always kind and make the atmosphere inviting.

    The best coconut donut I've had

    Love Doughboys! Fresh, big, delicious doughnuts. Great coffee. Lots of other pastries and desserts to choose from. Lots of drink choices. Friendly service. I'll be back.

    Dough boy donuts really seemed to up the game on donuts. They have the classics but the execution and quality is top notch. The donuts were fresh and fluffy. I haven't had a donut in ages but after seeing the quality a the peanut butter roll I had to indulge. The roll was everything a peanut butter addict wants. It was hands down the greatest donut I've ever had!

    Dough boy gives consistently great donuts. Large. Filling. Flavorful and affordable. Going in with the kids was a quick thing. Even though it was busy with the after church crowd we were served quickly and they had at least 4-5 people behind the counter. Always nice helpful young upbeat people. I had never noticed they have chocolate and almond croissants. I'll def be back to try those. We had a tigers tail, chocolate bar, and pumpkin cake donut with crumb topping. All were top notch, as to be expected. The only thing that's missing from this place is a good cream filled donut. I don't like usually cream filled. I have tried theirs and it just doesn't do anything for me. I've been trying to track down a similar cream filling from a place that I went to as a kid growing up for years. It has left any other cream filled donut disappointing and not worth my time or calories. It's my life mission to find that recipe and get it to owner Jay Kenny so I can have that specific cream filled experience here in Reno the rest of my life. Mark my word. It will happen.

    2/23/25 If you're a Reno'ite- you know Doughboy Donuts is popular.. among the locals-.. First time visiting this location.. Pleased to see the case full- Busy with customers and mobile pickups.. I've been avoiding eating donuts ( unless there's protein).. lol.. Picked up a few treats- ..

    A yummy glazed doughnut

    Visiting from the Bay saw the sign, definitely had to check them out. Glad that we stopped in. They had such a great variety of donuts, big cinnamon rolls, and every doughnut that you can think of they even had some danish as well. Couldn't even leave the parking lot without eating one of the donuts that I purchased. So fresh so fluffy was the glazed donut and so delicious if you're in the area, make a pitstop at doughboy donuts. The young man that attended to me was very polite and said for one more doughnut purchase it would be cheaper.

    I call this a simple dozen. Yum!

    Coming originally from an area where you can find a pretty large range of Chinese/Vietnamese…read morebakeries, I was very excited to find out that Reno had one! Parking is very easy in the shopping center lot. Honey Bakers is a small shop where you order to-go. Highlights The location offers a range of dim sum standards (har gow, siu mai, sticky rice, etc.) that you can order on demand. Around Autumn festival time, there are also mooncakes and other traditional pastries, with lotus, black bean, red bean, taro, egg custard, and other fillings. There is also a long specialty menu of sweet and savory "buns," including steamed and baked char siu bao, coconut pineapple, red bean, and chicken. I don't think I've ever seen so many options in one place, amazing! Turnaround time is pretty fast as well. Lowlights The dim sum prices are "boutique," and by that, I mean much more expensive than dim sum restaurants I've been to. Dim sum doesn't have that many offerings around here, and so you pay for the convenience. The buns are more reasonably priced, but the fillings are on the low side, and some aren't quite as fresh or tasty as I'm used to. Again, demand often impacts these factors, so I can appreciate a small business has to balance things. Overall, a convenient option if you're craving dim sum or Chinese sweets.

First couple bites of the first donut was good but after that they just turned out to not be so good.. there was some weird taste. Kinda like the oil they were cooked in was old or bad. Not a good tasting experience. I really wanted to like them. They aren't the worse donuts I've ever had but they aren't ones I would go out of my way for or really want again.

    This is a lovely cafe but the service I received was pretty poor…read more When you first walk in, you'll notice that it is a big open concept space with seating, and a small shop setup in the front. For the shop part, there's some baked goods and sort of deli items you can purchase--almost like a little market. For their restaurant portion, you'll actually have to order at the register and get a number. You can also order the baked items to enjoy at the counter. There were so many unique baked items that looked delicious. As my friend and I awaited to order, we looked over the menu. Prices seemed to be as expected for a place that looks this pretty. When I got to one of the female cashiers, she was not very friendly. She did not smile the whole time, and she made it seem like I was inconveniencing her from the get go, even though I had my order ready to go and I greeted her with a smile. I went ahead and ordered a crispy brunch potatoes and subbed the bacon for the mushroom which is noted to be the vegetarian option; she did have to quickly clarify whether I wanted to add mushrooms vs subbing, so I clarified. I also tried to order a latte with oat milk with their brown butter marzipan house syrup. She was trying to enter the drink order to the tablet and told me that she didn't have the brown butter marzipan button to select on her tablet and that they had brown sugar cinnamon. She tried to explain to me that brown sugar cinnamon and brown butter marzipan are the same. I was very confused by that comment, as that's not true, otherwise why are they separate names/labels? She asked if I wanted to get brown sugar cinnamon instead, and I told her no thanks, and asked to cancel the drink order. When I'm trying a new restaurant, I want to try the unique options. She then gave me a questioning, "are you serious" look, and confirmed if I wanted to cancel, and I said yes. Then I went ahead and paid, she didn't even say 'thank you' to close off, and wish I didn't tip her for that poor service...she wasn't even waiting my table... I don't expect service workers to chat me up, and all I expected was a "hi, what can I get for you?", "We don't have that, would you like something else?", and "Thank you." and also she should have either tried to figure out if 'brown butter marzipan' is in stock and that the button is just not on the tablet from a more senior staff member. It's on the menu, and I can get if you might be out of stock. Her overall reasoning just made it seem like she was being dishonest. I can't believe she tried to tell me essentially cinnamon and marzipan are the same with a bad attitude to top it all off. My friend also saw this interaction and was also frustrated by this experience. She noted that it seemed this lady's coworker noticed this poor interaction from the get go and that they seemed to try to compensate by giving friendlier service to my friend. I did notice later that this particular female cashier was smiling and friendly to other customers, so I have no idea what the problem was. I actually ended up going to the Perenn market that's located in the next building over and they did have brown butter marzipan syrup. I also told them about the above incident and they were unsure of the brown butter marzipan stock in the restaurant and were confused by how the cashier lady's comment how cinnamon and marzipan are the same, and they apologized for it even though they didn't have to. The person who served us our food was friendly. Later when I went to ask for a to-go box from a different cashier lady, this person was very friendly and accommodating. Other than that, portions seemed pretty large. I would say the crispy brunch potatoes were crispy as noted, adequately salted. I think there was some flavors they could add that would take the dish further. If they added avocado, that would be nice, or some citrus flavor. My friends ordered the traditional breakfast and they had varying experiences. Both of them were surprised by how large the dish was, however one person got scrambled eggs and the portion of eggs seemed way smaller than the one who got two sunny side up eggs. The potato pave had a flaked salt finish for one person, but not the other person, even though it wasn't a special request for either of them. The toast was delicious. It seems they use those large loaves, and give you two slices, to which they cut in half (you get 4 pieces of toast in total). Not sure what kind of bread they used, but the texture was lovely--crunchy crust and very soft center. With butter, the bread was perfect. They also used a very fresh peach jam. I would probably actually order this myself! Restroom was very clean and it is located in the back. There is also outdoor patio seating, which looked so nice. Overall, the restaurant is aesthetic, and food was pretty enjoyable, but the service was unfortunately lackluster.

    First, please forgive me…read more I've lived in Reno for quite a while, and for years I've driven past this little donut shop called Jelly Donut. Every single time, I thought, "Maybe one day." Well, last night my family and I were out on a little adventure by the Truckee River, enjoying an evening walk, when the craving hit: donuts! For some reason, Jelly Donut popped into my head. Now, I'll be honest--the outside doesn't exactly scream, "Stop here immediately!" In fact, it's one of those places where you wonder if you should keep driving. But I've been curious for years, so I finally took the plunge. Best. Decision. Ever. The moment I took a bite, I was transported back to my childhood donut shop from my hometown. You know, the kind of place that ruins all other donuts for you? Yep, that kind of good. Hands down, these are my favorite donuts in Reno. I honestly didn't expect to leave a Yelp review, so I never thought to take pictures. Boy, do I regret that! The donuts disappeared way too fast. I usually only eat the top half of a donut because I'm not a big fan of the dough itself. Not this time. I devoured the entire thing without a second thought. We got a half dozen: sprinkle donuts, a chocolate bar, a maple bar, a jelly donut, and one topped with Fruity Pebbles. Every single one was delicious, fresh, and packed with flavor. So, to Jelly Donut: I apologize for judging you by your exterior all these years. You've officially won me over, and I'll definitely be back for more!

    This place felt like Willy Wonka opened a milkshake bar for the Instagram generation…read more We stopped by Black Rock Dessert while looking for ice cream and instead found milkshakes on steroids. We ordered the Dust Storm: a vanilla milkshake with chocolate bits, topped with a giant blondie skewered dramatically on top, plus whipped cream, sprinkles, and chocolate drizzle. The rim of the jar was coated in marshmallow dip and graham cracker crumbs because apparently subtlety has left the chat. Honestly, the presentation was on point and exactly the kind of milkshake kids dream about. Which is why we ordered it. My tween declared it "the best milkshake I've ever seen in my life," and honestly, that alone made it worth the stop on our mother-daughter trip. Taste-wise, it leaned very sweet for me and didn't have a ton of flavor depth beyond sugar overload. But clearly the goal here is maximal fun and aesthetic, and they absolutely nailed that. It's basically a photo op you can drink. The shop itself was surprisingly quiet when we visited in the evening--we had the whole place to ourselves--but there were games to play while waiting for our order (we pulled out Pick Up Sticks, which transported me straight back to my 90s childhood living room). The ladies at the counter were also incredibly kind and patient explaining the menu and flavors to us. If you're looking for an over-the-top dessert experience your kids will talk about for days, this is your place.

    I am a bit torn on Black Rock, but it's a great dessert spot nonetheless…read more Stopped in at Black Rock Dessert on a Thursday evening. Just one lone employee was running the place. In my opinion, it wasn't enough. There was a steady flow of people, and she couldn't keep up with orders and customer service. We opted for two small scoops of ice cream for the kids: chocolate and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. We also ordered the sizzling blonde brownie sundae. It was about $20 for three items. The ice cream was very good, especially the Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Very unique flavor and great texture. The blondie was a bit of a letdown. First, the blondie was not "sizzling". It wasn't even really warm. Only placed in a waffle iron for a few seconds. Second, it seemed very dry and crumbly, maybe even overbaked. I thought the ideas at Black Rock are fun, and I think trying one of their milkshakes should be my next visit. However, there are a lot of great ice cream spots in Reno. For just ice cream, I think there is some heavy competition.
