    Bacon Maple - SO GOOD
    Ashley S.

    We went here this morning and were blown away! We aren't huge donut people to begin with, but these are so good. We got five to try from the case that was made today. To say they were fresh was an understatement. I don't think I've ever had such a fresh donut. Perfect balance of sweet and soft pull apart dough. The maple topping was amazing, bacon crispy. Apple filling and lemon filling were out of this world. And the apple filling was finely diced apples which made it easy to eat. Sugar cookie coating on the apple one? To die for. The service was great and she was very transparent with us about day old/ fresh donut options. Didn't bat an eye when we only wanted fresh this go around! The shop is small and the only improvement I would make is making it more comfy so people want to stay and eat. Don't skip out on this place!

    What a great shop right on the corner of Railroad and N. First (State Hwy 3). Due to COVID, management is asking for no more than 2 customers in the serving area at a time but there is a small covered alcove where you can wait your turn out of the weather. Donuts are made in Olympia and trucked in daily. Once they're gone for the day that's it, so get yours early. My favorite are the Fritters (Blackberry, Pineapple, and of course Apple) as are the Peppermint Candy Sprinkled (drool). Staff are very friendly and the location is great. They also have some drinks including regular brewed, self-serve coffee. Please support, this is a great local shop!

    Went by last Friday, there was a street fair in downtown Shelton. I heard about this donut shop and I just had to give it a try. I purchased my favorite the apple fritter and all I have to say OH MY GOSH! It was fresh, soft, not greasy, just enough apple chunks (I'm drooling right now just thinking about it). We went back the next day to get more and found that they everything was SOLD OUT before noon, no wonder because their donuts are amazing! This place is awesome and I can't wait to try more!

    Cute donut shop in Shelton with absolutely delicious donuts! The experience was topped off with amazing service! Will most definitely be back!

    Absolutely incredible! The softest, freshest donuts. You want to make sure to get there early, because they'll go fast! A great variety ranging from frosted top, cereal covered, fritters, and more. Not only are the donuts great, the owner is absolutely lovely. She created such a welcoming environment. Great customer service. We couldn't have asked for a better addition to our small town, Shelton.

Space City Donuts has an incredible selection of flavors and options, it's genuinely hard to narrow it down to just a dozen each time we visit. Everything we've tried has been delicious, and there's always something a little different or interesting to choose from. The staff are also fantastic: friendly, welcoming, and QUICK. You can walk in, grab an amazing box of donuts, and get on with your day. What a concept! Obviously they're at their absolute best fresh the same day, but we've found they hold up surprisingly well for a couple of days too. Great donuts, tons of variety, great people, and no need to dedicate half your morning to waiting in a tourist line. Space City has absolutely become our go-to donut shop in Poulsbo.

Kolaches were also fantastic. Literally can't miss with anything you order

The lady who took our order was patiently waiting behind the counter and provided the bare minimum friendliness for service -- nothing extravagant nor terrible. We purchased a dozen donut holes and 4 individual donuts: 2 maple bars, 1 chocolate bar, and 1 regular chocolate donut, as well as their flan, which was about $20 in total. The donuts were packed into cheap brown paper bags, so they're easy to eat immediately. The donuts were cheap enough, but the signage for the prices was located on the left on a chalkboard on the wall, which was very easy to miss after entering the shop, and we didn't notice it until after we ordered. My son enjoyed the donuts, but I found the donuts tasted stale, perhaps because we visited in the evening when they were no longer fresh. I would have liked them to be sweeter and fluffier, but it was inevitable that the quality would be mediocre based on the time we arrived. They offered an okay selection of donuts, which were all displayed visibly as soon as you entered, and there was some variety, but nothing that particularly stood out to me besides the maple bars, so not much creativity there with the donut options. Perhaps, again, it was due to our late visit. However, they do offer other desserts, like pastries, but those looked too filling for me at the time, so I settled for the flan, which was still rich and heavy, but I was able to refrigerate it to enjoy at a later time. I noticed they sold some sweet bread too, like conchas, but those didn't interest me at the time. They also offer drinks and ice cream bars on the right after you enter. There's a decent amount of seating, but the shop was practically empty when we were there, because we're weirdos who visit around 18:00 for donuts lol. There wasn't really anything that caught my attention enough for a return visit, besides the convenience of the location. Overall, not a bad visit, but nothing enticing enough for me personally.

My boyfriend got a dozen of their most popular which were their maple bars, glazed, and fritters. I got a blackberry fritter and a maple bar for the time being as we were going to grab coffee from a drive thru coffee spot. They do charge you a fee if you use a card for any transaction under $5. The staff here were polite and efficient. The inside was spacious with plenty of seating. The area looked clean from what we could tell. The donuts here are delicious and soft too!

    The glazed was good. Prices were fair and nice to purchase in 1/2 and Whole Dozen price points…read more I was personally disappointed for I went in wanting 4 specific items and 2 were sold out. The 2 sold out items were the Scones and Buttermilk Bars. I would have definitely compared them to Pink Box's bars. If they're sold out here at Pao's, I'd assume they have to be very good. I'm not one for scones but theirs looked a little special. One previous poster here suggested that it would be worth paying a penalty for the Toasted Coconut. Definitely a very good example. Mr. Pao was a kind man, patient with the customer ahead of us that did not know that the establishment is cash only. Cash only is great. The CC Cos make enough money as it is and the 3% transfer/ transaction fee they charge merchants is always passed onto the consumer unless...... Pay with cash people! The donuts. Maple bar was good. I was not content with the double chocolate cake. The chocolate cake was rather flat and depended on the icing to carry it across the finish line. We didn't arrive terribly late for some items to be sold out. Some people just.......... If you need 40 dozen of a particular item, don't just walk in and be inconsiderate of other patrons. Call ahead and make a special order. Otherwise, control yourself and consider others before blowing out a selection. I'm a white cream fan over Bavarian/ Boston Custard. Some places have a white cream filled Long Johns. Pao's just the long chocolate bars, no filling. Standard Boston Cream donuts are available. The donuts are a nice size and selection is good. You have to love the small local donut bakeries. Some are amazing, some ehh. This was about at 3/4 to amazing. If I had to grade, maybe an 82% for the day. Definitely room for improvement both on the business and customer side of the transaction. Keep it cash only and stick it to big bank business.
