Cute photo op
Melanie S.

So many options so hard to choose. A lot seemed similar and there was also seasonal choices. I'm more fruity gal so went with blueberry for one and lemon for the other. Donuts are made to order....they were nice and warm. A smidge on the sweet side but an excellent treat. Employees were all super nice.

A Classic Dozen

We loved these donuts. We had them in Virginia and it was great to find another one in TN. My kids devoured them.

Amazing donuts, impeccably clean, and the sweetest (pun intended!) staff members. Honestly there isn't even a need to add more here and I'll let the pictures do the talking....just COME TRY IT!! P.S. Don't miss the seasonal donuts!

I'm not really sure how to say what I wanna say, so I'm just gonna go for it.... THESE ARE THE BEST DONUTS ANYONE HAS EVER HAD EVER. Made-to-order donuts? With your choice of toppings? Whose idea was this?! I was leaving Jason's and just HAPPENED to spot the hanging Duck Donuts sign. Because me and my friend had to know, we went in and were immediately taken aback by how good it smelled inside. It's sort of set up like Dos Bros or Chipotle where you order and then watch them make your specific donuts. We didn't plan on staying there to eat them, but the attendant kinda gave us a look like "...Are you sure you don't want forks so you can taste them?" So, we obeyed and sat down to take a bite. And then kept taking bites....and then started thumping our legs....and then my friend started chastising the attendants with, "You all should be ashamed of yourselves!" These donuts are delicious. Period. Warm. Soft on the inside. Crispy edges. Literally exactly how I like donuts (or brownies or pancakes). I don't know what else to say to you. Just so get some, and try them while they're warm!

Let me start off by saying Wow! This was the first time I had heard of or been in a place like this. I thought it was just a regular doughnut shop then I realized it was not! I see a belt taking very small batches of made to order doughnuts. I looked around and wiped a tear from face from the joy I was experiencing! LOL The owner was helping me decide I landed on cinnamon and sugar and OMG!!! He recommended I eat them quickly while they were still warm and he was right some of them made it all the way out the door to my car but not much farther! LOL I absolutely recommend this spot when your in the mood for doughnuts plus as I like to call them now! Sorry I forgot to get pictures of the darn doughnuts before I devoured them.... Rookie move on my part!

Assortment of flavors

WOW! Just wow! This is my new favorite donut place when I come here to visit. Love the atmosphere of this shop. So bright, friendly and inviting. The great way to describe this is like a Subway for donuts. You can literally have your donut your way! The possibilities are endless and they already have some great combinations suggested for you if the amount of toppings is overwhelming. What I love is that it is made to order. The donuts are served fresh and warm and makes it taste like heaven. It's just an explosion of flavors in your mouth. Their milkshake was one of the best milkshakes I've had. Goes down smooth. This will definitely be added into my rotation of dessert places. Duck Donuts for the win!

I have been to this place multiple times. The donuts are fresh and hot!! They make them right in front of you! The one with bacon is definitely my favorite!! A must try!

First time coming to a duck donuts and loved it! I Didn't realized that you customize each donut with different toppings, glazes, etc. They were all delicious but my favorite for sure was the original glaze with sprinkles!

Cinnamon sugar w/ vanilla drizzle, s'mores, key lime, Oreo, coconut, Oreo w salted caramel
Tonya K.

The donuts were amazing. We did curbside due to Coronavirus pandemic, so couldn't go inside. However the online order was convenient and the donuts were place on table for you to pick up. Will definitely be back.

These donuts are beautiful and they taste amazing

Doughnuts are delicious. I would choose this over Dunkin' or Krispy Kreme any day! Can't wait to try more.

But I can say it was all worth it. I did read in other reviews that the line usually moves fast but for us that was not the case. One of the people taking orders was taking to two customers for no joke 10-15 minutes which delayed the line movement. We were able to find a seat and they did have high chairs available for young kids. This is always super helpful. We got our pastry and waited about 15 minutes for our food. Once we were seated I was able to really take in the atmosphere of the place and the delicious food. The kids turkey sandwich was full size, which I was not expecting. Everything was very affordable considering they use high quality local products. Check it out if you are in town! Pro tip: We did not know that they would validate your parking... so we paid for street parking. But if you can grab a spot in their lot there is a validation station inside! Free for 1.5 hours.

Recommended the apple butter margarita made with their own apple butter and it was fantastic. Do not miss the Nashville hot chicken mac & cheese here or the tater tots which are a cross between a hush puppy and a home fry, and perfection. Someone at the table called the bagels "inflation bagels", they could definitely be a bit plumper, but overall everyone liked their food. Note to anyone ordering a pizza which is made in house every day with fresh dough, this is actually like a thin bagel, but we loved the burrata pizza nonetheless. If we were local, we would definitely be regulars here.

I guess I'm a NY bagel guy. The "Montreal style" bagels served here are thin, chewy, and slightly sweet. They remind me of unsalted soft pretzels. The tater tots look and taste like something out of the Alien franchise. Almost like crab-legged hush puppies. And their only soda offerings are Coke and Diet Coke so I settled on OJ. Maybe a blessing in disguise since it was a healthier option. Only two gender-neutral bathrooms so prepare for a wait. There was a line the entire time we were there.

A few phrases came to mind as we finished breakfast at Frothy Monkey: overflowing with flavor and…read morethoughtfully prepared. We ordered the veggie omelette and the Broadbent omelette, and both were generously filled with fresh, well-balanced ingredients. Nothing overpowered anything else. Instead of relying on heavy spices or sauces, the flavors came naturally from the quality and proportion of the ingredients themselves. The sourdough toast was exceptional, with a crisp crust and great texture, and my cappuccino was exactly what I hoped for--smooth, balanced, and expertly made. The setting was just as enjoyable. Housed in a beautifully restored historic train station, the atmosphere has genuine character that complements the food rather than trying to distract from it. A breakfast that's driven by quality ingredients instead of gimmicks. I would gladly return and highly recommend it.

This location is in a great spot. That's where the positives stop. Been to Frothy locations in…read moreNashville numerous times. Today's experience was lacking. Staff seemed unconcerned with customers, and stayed busy chatting with themselves. There were lines to get a table and lines at the counter. Was there any staff in either area who was alert or welcoming or friendly? No, there was not. So much so, in both areas we saw groups leave for a lack of attention from anyone. The lack of customer service here was disappointing. Even at the register several times while there was a long line, employees would avoid or abandon the register (and not to make drinks), leaving the waiting line and empty cash register, and then occasionally looking over like it wasn't their problem that customers were there. One employee was on a lengthy phone call while standing at the register before addressing the guest in front of them and then left. Another came to the register and helped one guest and then left (not to make a drink) and then another did the same. Maybe it had been a long day. Maybe the world's largest order just got fulfilled. That would be fine. Just be honest and acknowledge those who are trying to spend their money at your coffee shop and don't treat them like being there is an inconvenience to you. This experience was disappointing and I won't be back. There are lots of other great Chattanooga choices that will gladly and kindly welcome your business and you will enjoy a better experience.
