The doughnuts we had from Doughnut Dollies were good. They weren't among the best we've had in metro Atlanta (e.g., Five Daughters Bakery and Sublime Doughnuts in Atlanta, Sarah Donuts in Norcross), but they were still delicious. I think this place is worth checking out. This review is for the original location in Marietta. It opened in December 2015 and is still going strong. Doughnut Dollies opened two additional locations, both in Atlanta, but they've since closed: 1. The Collier Hills / Buckhead / Westside location on Howell Mill Rd opened in June 2019 and announced its closing in August 2024. https://www.instagram.com/doughnutdollies/p/C-3fWhvuMs3/?img_index=1 2. The Virginia-Highland location on Virginia Ave opened in August 2021 and was reported closed in June 2024. https://whatnowatlanta.com/virginia-highland-donut-shop-closes-another-could-be-moving-in/ Doughnut Dollies appears to change their menu monthly. There were 18 flavors when I looked, six available on weekends only. That said, we were able to get a Dulce de Leche doughnut, marked "weekend only," on a Wednesday afternoon. A couple of the more unique flavors included Raspberry Black Pepper and the Mikey. The latter was described as: "espresso cream-filled brioche Long John, maple, candied applewood-smoked bacon." A Long John is a bar-shaped, yeast-risen doughnut. They also sell a sour cream doughnut called the "Old Fashioned," probably because sour cream doughnuts were made as far back as the late 1800s. Other than that, the menu was pretty standard and not too exciting. There were lots of classic flavors and chocolate flavors. The store itself was cute and modern. Like other "gourmet" doughnut shops, Doughnut Dollies sells doughnuts a la carte. In other words, it's not cheaper to buy a dozen. The store also sells cookies and mini doughnuts. Here's what my wife and I snacked on: * Dollie ($4.00) - creme brulee-filled brioche tossed in sugar and bruleed * Apple Fritter ($4.50) - cinnamon brioche with roasted apple and vanilla glaze * Dulce de Leche (weekend only, $4.50) - cinnamon sugar brioche, housemade dulce de leche milk caramel We both liked the Dollie the best. It must be the shop's signature doughnut because of the name. The creme brulee filling was terrific. Overall, the doughnut had a yummy texture and delectable creaminess, and it wasn't too sweet. My wife and I disagreed on Nos. 2 and 3. She liked the Apple Fritter second best, but it was the Dulce de Leche for me. The latter was super sweet (sugar-coated) and had a rich, sticky caramel center. My wife thought it was too one-dimensional. She loves apple fritters and thought the Apple Fritter doughnut was enjoyable, despite the cinnamon being overbearing. The doughnut was a bit dry. I found that to sort of be the case for the Dulce de Leche doughnut too. I'm glad I finally got to try some doughnuts from Doughnut Dollies. I had it bookmarked on Yelp for many years. Back when I went into the office in Marietta, pre-COVID, I recall a coworker telling me about Doughnut Dollies. That's how long it's been. I look forward to trying different flavors in the future. read more

This time I got ALL the donuts!!!! Last time I went was later in the day and they had sold out of several kinds. The crème brûlée donut was my favorite but all of them were delicious. I also got a latte and sat there to enjoy. It was a little cold inside so bring a jacket in the winter to stay warm. The lady working the counter was friendly and informative. There is no table service. read more

The doughnuts were decent. My favorite was the almond rose. Maple bacon doughnuts are one of my fave but when I broke off a piece of this one I saw cream in it that I wasn't expecting. I'm not a cream filled doughnut person so I was disappointed to see that. The cream tasted like a coffee cream, not a bad flavor but I scraped most of it out anyway. The service was fine. The lady at the counter was quick with getting to my order and friendly. And the ambiance was very inviting, I walked downstairs after visiting the restaurant on top and I could smell the aroma of doughnuts going down the stairs. I would definitely go back for the almond rose doughnut. read more

This place is really a piece of work... artwork that is... artists bake here and I love it! The doughnut of the month and other limited time doughy goodness's are superb! The combination of flavors they make are sometimes unthinkable but pair very well together. I never thought gourmet doughnuts could exist, but Doughnut Dollies made this possible with their creative recipes and highly skilled garnishes. You gotta taste these unique, fresh doughnuts. You won't find anything like it anywhere else in this city! read more

We stopped by this morning for a treat before running errands earlier in the morning, and there was not much of a line! I guess that's the secret - get there early :) The inside of the shop is so cute, and the doughnuts looked amazing, as always! Today we tried the chocolate glazed, birthday cake, and the Mikey. I am a big doughnut / dessert lover, and I really appreciate how Doughnut Dollies doughnuts are not only delicious, but are each a little work of art. They are almost too pretty too eat (notice I said "almost" haha). The huge selection of doughnuts they offer is also really impressive. And they are a very reasonable price, in my opinion. They have a few different price tiers, ranging from around $2.25 - $3.75, and they are well worth it! I think we will make this our new Saturday morning errand tradition :) read more

After my doctor's appointment as I was heading home, my car suddenly turned in to this little parking lot and there was Doughnut Dollies! So, I had to go in. I entered this utilitarian style shop and was greeted by a wonderful smell. I walked over to the simple display and perused the delicious choices of doughnuts. I selected four to take home for my husband and I to try. It was difficult to make the choices! I selected old fashioned, strawberry glazed, birthday cake, and cream filled doughnuts. I really wanted to try the Apple fritter, but it was just way to big - maybe next time! Each tier of doughnut is a different price, and it was not clearly marked which ones were which. I had to ask the server to point them out for me. When I got home, We made sampler plates to taste a bit of each kind of doughnut. Each one was very good. My husband loved the old fashioned (heated up). I think I liked the birthday cake best - it's an old fashioned doughnut with a top layer of icing and sprinkles and crumbles. So, if you are looking for a unique doughnut treat, check out Doughnut Dollies! read more

A late morning visit after a medical appointment, I had heard this was nearby. It's around back & beneath the Canvas Bakery & Cafe. I picked a powdered sugar crème-filled - a Sweet Jane, I believe? Very good but very sweet. Lots of choices & they're priced by "tiers," with basic at the bottom & fancier versions in the pricier tiers. I'll try another version for variety if I make it back here. read more

These doughnuts were so sweet that you go into sugar shock from all the icing. Not my type of doughnuts off my list.

These are the worst donuts I've ever tasted! If you know me, you would know I love donuts! I've had the pleasure of tasting from some of the best donut shops in from NYC, Cali, Mississippi and Louisiana! I was so excited to try these. I ordered 4 different ones, the apple fritter is one of my favorites! But not here! They all tasted the same, dry, no flavor, with horrible frosting on top! Absolutely disgusting... I spent $13+ on 4 donuts only to take a bite out of each and throw them in the trash.. ... read more

Found my new favorite doughnut place Their menu always changes I was told. The pictures for this review include a Carmel sea salt glazed donut and a crème brûlée donut, but there were so many others I wanted, like the cereal donut that had fruit loops on it and the Cinnamon Toast Crunch one that they had already sold out of for the day $8.75 for two humongous donuts and a Yoo-hoo (don't judge me)! Worth it! I've never had to pace myself when eating donuts before, but every time I took a bite I was like dang this is good and just wanted to savor the flavor of it. I liked the spot too, wasn't really busy, they had some seating inside, but I was in a little bit of a rush. Looking forward to trying more of their donut concoctions in the future! read more

We went in around noon on a Saturday and they'd been pretty much cleaned out! A small selection was left so I was super sad about that but they had one pb&j+fluff doughnut left & it wasn't something I'd normally get but I'm so glad I did! It was soooo good! That's not a flavor combo I'd mix but it was perfect. It's got a peanut butter glaze & crumbled dried strawberries I think on top. Inside is jelly + marshmallow fluff & I was here for it. We also got the chocolate p'nut one but I didn't eat it yet. It looks delicious though. They are on the bottom floor of a shopping center & have plenty of parking. Hoping to try that bacon doughnut one day read more

Stopped by Doughnut Dollies in the morning after an early doctor's appointment. Tip: come early because they will run out of doughnuts! They had a nice selection of flavors, but I went with some classics. I got a Strawberry Frosted, Blueberry Cake, and Chocolate Old Fashioned. All were good, but a bit oily. They are yeast doughtnuts. Large and a little dense. For me, the best was the Blueberry Cake, since it had plenty of flavor. The Chocolate was a close second. The Strawberry was good but I wish it had more strawberry flavor, since it was not coming through in the frosting. I need to come back and try more of their limited seasonal/monthly flavors. read more

Doughnut Dollies is one of my favorite donut shops if not my absolute favorite in Atlanta! I've been to this location twice now and every donut I've tried has been AMAZINGGG! I've tried the following: Mikey: Brioche, Espresso Cream, Maple, Bacon $3.75 Clementine: Brioche, Clementine Butter Icing, and Candied Clementine $2 Glazed: 24 Hour Brioche, Vanilla Bean Glaze $2 Sea Salt Caramel: Brioche, Sea Salt Caramel Icing $2 Delce de Leche: Cinnamon Sugar Brioche, House Made Dulce de Leche $3.50 I love yeast donuts and theirs has the perfect texture. The icing is sweet, but not too sweet. The flavors are on point! My favorites are sea salt caramel and dulce de leche. Delicious! This location is almost an hour away from me, and I often think about making the drive! There's ample parking and seating indoor. The donuts are a bit pricey, but they are big. Worth it! read more

Donuts were a disappointment. Felt like they used day old dough to make their batch on this beautiful Sunday. Nothing looked fresh. I'm questioning if they just laid out their previous day's inventory. Donuts were doughy. We drove to Tip Top donuts just to make up for this. 2 stars because there was a chalkboard for our kid to play with read more

Divine array of doughnuts to satisfy your sweet and fat cravings. Embrace the fat +'s: + Amazing selection to satisfy nearly everyone's tastes. From savory bacon to fruity strawberry to classic traditional, everyone can find something to embrace. + Novelties such as Birthday Cake beats a cupcake. This version tastes like a cake version of a doughnut. + Welcoming staff who patiently let you finalize your picks. Skip the fat -'s: - Tipping. I'm all for electronic payments but when there are default tips that start at 15% and most for your business is takeout then I am peeved. Takeout requires minimal service and it does not start at 15%. It's a hassle to tap through the electronic pad to do a custom tip. There should be a default of 5% and 10% for a business that leans on takeout. It is standard. read more

So so yummy! I went on a Sunday around noon and thankfully they still had plenty of donuts to choose from and not busy at all. Plenty of parking and a small sitting area too. I got the Dollie (creme brulee) and the Mikey (maple bacon) and both were so delicious. The Mikey was probably my favorite; the bacon and the maple icing was such a good combo. My friend got the Sweet Jane which was also good but definitely super sweet with the icing in the middle. These brioche donuts are definitely something to checkout! read more

A shoutout to DD for having vegan options! They are hard to find in the area, so if you're on the vegan donut hunt, here's your stop. Our non-vegan friends also love these as they are fluffy and more croissant donuts. If you're ever looking for a fancy donut box to gift, you'll find lots of options. The staff are pretty friendly, but the prices do feel high, even for gourmet donuts. Perhaps because out of state comparisons are more fluffy and the vegan options elsewhere are less sugary. That said, you'll sure to find something you'll love if you try it out! read more

Currently here on a visit to Atlanta and telling from reviews and pictures, I was extremely inclined to to come and try these doughnuts. Below pictured is the sweet potato donut, birthday cake donut, cheddar cornbread donut, cinnamon crunch donut, and the mocha bar which is infused with espresso for the coffee lovers out there. I came about an hour before they closed so the donuts I got weren't fresh and the sweet potato donut tasted sour for some reason as if it were stale. The birthday cake was my favorite, it's sweet but more cake-like than doughy. The cinnamon was also pretty good, same consistency as the birthday cake one just with less on it. These donuts are pretty but i've had better. read more

The Marietta/Cobb location the people are weird. I believe it was the mother the last time I went she was not pleasant with an attitude for some reason. I rather go to the Atlanta location whenever I'm in the city. Yes- they are always out of their signature donuts if you go even 2 hours after opening! read more

Ok so I am a donut fanatic and have been searching through GA for the best of the best. This is is by far the best of the best. No other donut place that I know of puts as much care and detail into their donuts. Normally you just have the same donut topped with random sweet items but here, you get a huge variety of shapes and makes of donuts each made using different ingredients, teas etc. My favorite doughnut here is the PB&J, the Smores and the Dollies. If you want to check this place out, you need to go as early as possible. Anything after 1100 is typically leftovers any day of the week. I went on a Wednesday at 1130 and they were already sold out at the Marietta location. read more

Greasy! I left the box of donuts on my car seat and it left a grease mark. The bottom of the box was stained with grease and when we opened the donut it was glossy with grease! Threw the box away...full of donuts!!! :( read more

My first visit here was unsuccessful because they were out of doughnuts. My second time here, I picked out a dozen donuts and out of the 12 -- I liked 4. They were definitely more cake-like and a lot thicker than your average doughnut. After spending almost $50 on donuts, I probably won't be back. These would probably be great to bring in for the office or an in-home brunch, but for a regular occasion? Eh. read more

I stopped in here while driving through Georgia on a road trip, I figured a healthy dose of sugar would help wake me up and my reach my final destination! This shop is interestingly situated, kind of behind and beneath the building its within, so it's not readily noticeable - parking is also a little wonky and tight. I have to imagine that when it's a busy time of day it's probably much more of a nightmare, but I got here around lunch time so it wasn't too bad. The inside is quite spacious, very clean, though I suspect it may have been understaffed when I went as I had to wait about 5-7 minutes to place my order because the cashier was on the phone. Not a huge inconvenience, just a noticeable wait since I was one of three people in the entire store. But moving on to the donuts! Unfortunately a bunch of really interesting flavors I would've loved to try were already sold out by the time I got there. But I made the best of the situation and opted for several different flavors: Peaches and Cream, Sunflower and Honey, S-mores, Fluffernutter, and Chocolate Orange. First, I just have to shout out how ingenious it is that they use brioche dough here - it creates donuts with pillowy soft texture and chew, and I was super impressed by that alone! As for the flavors.. - Peaches and Cream: this was my favorite! Soft sugared donut filled with fresh whipped cream, sliced GA peaches, and rosemary sprigs. Simple and phenomenal - and the touch of rosemary was truly next level! - Sunflower and Honey: a solid option! A honey glazed donut topped with sesame seeds, and I particularly liked the nuttiness and crunch the seed topping gave the donut. - S'mores: a halved brioche donut stuffed with a toasted marshmallow, topped with chocolate icing and graham cracker crumbs. This was definitely tasty, you can't really go wrong with s'mores flavors - but I would've preferred a marshmallow creme center. It was just too bulky and solid of a center, imo. - Fluffernutter: chocolate brioche with marshmallow creme filling, and peanut butter icing. Suuuuuper rich, decadent, and heavy - absolutely delicious, but I couldn't finish this one! - Chocolate Orange: this was a surprising hit for me, and my second fav! Chocolate brioche with an orange glaze, zest, and fennel pollen - that fennel really did add a little burst of flavor and texture that made this very unique and enjoyable to me. All in all, I admire the creativity demonstrated here by their flavor offerings, and the quality is undeniable. These are great donuts! read more

I finally got a chance to go to Doughnut Dollies on Mother's Day. They were selling a special "Mother's Day Picnic Basket." It came with 6 donuts in the most unique flavors: WATERMELON, BLUEBERRY THYME CRUMBLE PIE, BLACKBERRY CORNBREAD, ARNOLD PALMER,FIG & BRIE, AMBROSIA. These were the most delicious donuts I have ever had. I felt like I was eating a piece of art. Apparently they do picnic baskets for most holidays. The store is modern looking and was spotless. I visited during the time of COVID so social distancing was in place and all patrons and employees were wearing masks. Definitely check out Doughnut Dollies if you are in the Marietta area. read more

So we've been here multiple times and asked if we can order/pay over the phone because we don't live nearby and they don't accept that...either you get there before everyone else or order online 24 hours in advance...weirdest system! We have to drive an hour just to get here every time, and EVERY TIME THEY ARE OUT of the specific doughnuts we want! What the hell! It's like they only cater to local Marietta folks. It's ridiculous! They never make enough of their signature doughnuts but make too much of all the unwanted types of doughnuts that they usually have plenty of... the donuts are usually good (on and off) and that's why I gave two stars, but is it enough to waste my time? Don't think so. Change this dumb system and allow ordering over the phone like any other normal establishment!!! read more

I ended up in this little doughnut shop totally by mistake. I was heading to Panera and made a wrong turn into a parking lot next to it. Thought this was another entrance to the shops upstairs but low and behold... this cute little store appeared. There are only two tables and a counter with a couple of chairs but you don't really notice. The space is spotless and open. What you do notice is the smell of happiness and the pretty donuts that greet you at the display window. There was a small line and everyone was waiting patiently for their turn. That's how I knew Panera would have to wait. I followed the line and listened as the lady explained all the flavors they were offering that particular day. Creme Brûlé and bacon something were all I needed to hear. I needed up buying three donuts and a cup of coffee, for the DH, the total was $13..Although it sounds expensive it was totally worth it. I can't wait to go back and bring the kiddos. read more

We've been twice both times they had nothing for Gluten Free. Stop advertising Gluten Free if you don't have anything. It's not a fad for me it's a absolute requirement, we don't have a choice. Just take it off your menu if you're not going to have it! read more

I'm a huge fan of doughnuts! I've seen pictures and read raving reviews of Doughnut Dollies everywhere so I decided to check them out. The doughnut I had was amazing, plan cake doughnut with vanilla icing. My only complaint is there is ONLY ONE vegan doughnut option. It would be nice to have a variety of vegan doughnuts by my house instead of driving across town to Revolution or settling for less than tasty vegan doughnuts from Whole Foods, but I can't lie... the one vegan option they have they definitely got it right If I weren't vegan I would want to try: Chocolate glazed Strawberry Apple fritter Cinnamon toast Raspberry shortbread Just throwing it out there in case they decide to make more vegan options! read more

Doughnut Dollies is underneath Canvas Cafe. So just look for the Canvas Cafe sign. Actually, you don't need to. The Doughnut Dollies sign is bigger than Canvas's sign. Once you drive in, just drive down into the back. Then you'll see Doughnut Dollies right there. The place has a trendy, industrial feel. I guess since it has the name "Dollies" they must want to give an industrial feel. They have 4 tiers of doughnuts. The first tier is your cheapest, up to tier 4, where it's more expensive. I don't think the 4th tier is better than the first tier. It just gets more fancy as you move up a tier. For instance, the 4th tier has your gluten free doughnuts. You also don't buy a dozen at a time. You buy a al carte. So you pay for each doughnut. I tried about 6 different doughnuts here. They're pretty good. I think my favorite was the classic "Old Fashioned". It's a more cakey doughnut with glaze. I thought I wouldn't like a cakey doughnut, but I loved its old-school flavor and texture. It was still nice and moist. Their Boston Cream was good too. I loved its Vanilla Cream inside. Their Dulce De Leche was interesting. I thought it would be filled with some sort of cream. But it just had a dollop on top. I think they should pipe that dollop inside the doughnut. I liked this place. I love Doughnuts, and this is a great place to get some fancy ones up in North Cobb Area. read more
