The difference between a 3 star and a 4 star review is that the donuts are warm, fresh & made to order! So, hard to go wrong there! Overall inside it's chaotic (with volume comes chaos). The workers aren't super helpful or cheery. The floor is sticky and the self serve coffee counter was a wreck. Donuts were just the same as the other locations. Tasty. We just pick and choose if we come to this one when we are in Avon. Best way is to order ahead and take and have a car picnic or back to the beach house!

Breakfast box--preselected!

Awesome! We ordered on line ahead & picked up 2 dozen of these beauties! We had a dozen in the popsicle donuts box & a dozen breakfast box. The 3 kids (6, 8, 10) attacked the box with a knife, cutting off pieces! They were still warm & so tasty! Expensive? Yes! Worth it? Exactly! Tasty! Fun!

Customer service is top notch. Everyone was super nice. Donuts were made to order. They are cake style. Strawberry lemonade was delicious.

This place smells sooooo good when you walk inside. They have so many donuts to choose from. We got the Maple Bacon, Peanut Butter Paradise, Chocolate Covered, and glazed. I also got the Carmel Macchiato on ice. The donuts were very warm, we loved all but the glazed donut. Just not enough glaze, not sure. My favorite donut was the Maple Bacon it was so delicious and it made me crave more! This store also had Merch like t-shirts, bags, various cups, toys, stuffed animals, and key chains. The girls taking orders were very nice and friendly and so were the donut makers handing out the orders. The Carmel macchiato was better than Starbucks! If we see another one in our travels tomorrow we will be back for sure! Here are some pictures that I took. The store was very neat and well organized. The pink chair outside was really cute!

Wide variety of donuts to include bacon, maple, blueberries, cinnamon, honey, glazed chocolate cake, and a few others all delicious!

If you like donuts, you'll love this place! Wide variety of fresh, delicious donuts! Would highly recommend

Me, after I got my order! They have a cute chair in the front for tourists like me. :)

I'm on a road trip and stopped here for some coffee on my way out of town in the morning. I went at about 9:30 AM and it was bustling! I ordered their most popular doughnut (maple glaze and bacon bits) and a cappuccino. The doughnut was AMAZING! I absolutely loved it. The cappuccino was also very good. Wether you are a local or just passing though, I definitely recommend! If I lived in the area, over time I would want to try all of their different flavors. Yum!

We stopped in here one morning in early May. This Duck Donuts is conveniently located in the same strip mall as Food Lion, other shops and eateries. I had eaten breakfast already, so I was just looking for a hot coffee to go for our drive down to Hatteras. My husband wanted to get a donut. My husband ended up ordering a donut breakfast sandwich, the kind you would typically get on an English Muffin or bagel. It was pretty cool, he could choose from a wide assortment of donuts, but he opted for a plain one. It's really awesome that the donuts are made to order, way better than the stale ones Dunkin' often has. There were only 2 other parties in here ordering, it was a bit slow getting his food. I can't imagine coming in here at the peak time in the summer, but maybe they have more staff at that time. In addition to food, they also sell some neat merchandise. Plenty of t-shirts, mugs and hats for sale. There is SOME seating inside, but not a whole lot. This is a good breakfast alternative to a sit down restaurant, but if you are in a huge rush, it might be better to pick some up at the nearby grocery store.

It is what it is - a freshly fried in front of your eyes donut treat dipped in your choice of sugar frosting and topped with sugar...! If that fixes your sweet tooth, then this is the place for you. There are a variety of interesting flavors and it's good fun to sit and watch the expert donut maker's at work. Watch how they dip your doughnut and manage to not get any frosting on their hands. Lots of space and air in this cavernous Donut joint. Check out the merchandise as well so you can get on your doughnut swag.

I don't crown places as "best ever" very often, but these are the best donuts I have ever had! DUCK DONUTS IS A MUST! I highly recommend the beach ball and the blueberry, the hot made to order donuts deliver on taste and freshness. They taste like funnel cake but are not too sweet. Don't get just one!

This place gets 5 stars for the GOURMET donuts alone, let alone all the extra stuff on the menu. So addictive!

Excellent donuts but plan to wait. It seems everyone is in training and production process is laborious. Tasty!

This has nothing to do with the food, but I found it odd to see how rude the owner was. There were…read morelots of people arriving at 8am and a little bit after and the shop was not open yet. The owner proceeded to snap at a woman who was waiting outside, telling her that they aren't ready to open yet. When she asked when they would open he said "No idea" then walked away. Once they ended up opening the doors he immediately began yelling at everyone (about 2 dozen people) to keep the doors shut. I get his point because the flies are terrible here, but the way he was acting was pretty crazy. Obviously this is the only place that sells fresh donuts within 20 minutes, so I guess he can get away with it. Thought it was pretty funny that he was asking people to leave a tip after acting like such a tool though. The donuts are pretty good just a little expensive.

Good option for tasty pizza. There are few options for food…read morein this area, especially at the beginning of the week when the other places are closed.In the mornings, they offer donuts, but get their quick as they sell out within an hour.  The rest of the day is pizza. Nothing else. Ignore their online menu because they got rid of everything else and only make pizza, but they are making solid pizza!  We ordered two pies and both were very good! Plus they deliver. We were at Camp Hatteras and they brought it right to our site. Friendly driver!  I would definitely recommend Dough Shack.
