Do I want a Dutch Monkey? I am afraid to look it up in the Urban Dictionary. I am sure it is a fetish, perversion or scatological sexual reference. Whats that? Ohhh. Do I want a Dutch Monkey DOUGHNUT? Absolutely! Dutch Monkey Doughnuts is a great doughnut shop in good 'ol Cumming, GA. The shop is attractive, not necessarily cool. Doughnuts are creative and crafted well, highly edible, but not overly incredible. The namesake Dutch Monkey doughnut is cream filled, adorned with sliced bananas and a very good chocolate ganache. They have rotating flavors, today's specials featured peanut butter buttercream, Boston cream, coffee buttercream, Dutch crumb, chocolate mint, along with various standard doughnuts, fritters and logs. The doughnuts are a bit denser then I like, but the flavors are spot on. Service here is excellent. Coffee is really good. Overall it is a terrific option this far north if you need a doughnut fix. Now, how 'bout that Dutch Monkey? read more

Don't you just love it when a business lives up to the yelp hype? Two friends and I ended up here for breakfast around 10:30 on a Saturday morning. Quite hungry, we decided to get six different donuts for us to share and a couple of coffees. Little did we know this was grossly underestimating the deliciousness and also the richness of these treats. One donut will be more than enough for all but the hungriest and biggest of appetites, though your taste buds will be begging for more. Everything we tried was great, but it was a surprise to me that the much yelped maple-bacon donut was actually my least favorite. Most favorite definitely goes to a lemon meringue donut, which was filled with what tasted like homemade perfectly tart lemon curd and topped with a lightly torched whirl of meringue instead of icing. Tied for second were the nutella filled eclair and the buttermilk poundcake topped with slices of fresh farmer's market Georgia peaches. Just typing those flavors is making my mouth water, and making me count down the days till I can make another Dutch Monkey run. Quite honestly, these leave Sublime Donuts behind in the dust. The Dutch Monkey experience is superior in every possible way, from donuts, to coffee, to service, to setting. In fact, it's so good, that I could see potentially waking up on a weekend morning and thinking it totally reasonable to drive to Cumming for breakfast. read more

Dutch monkey doughnuts is a cute establishment of Peachtree Parkway in Cumming. It is owned by a couple of culinary graduates, Who worked in restaurants and decided to open a doughnut shop offering the best donuts out there. The donuts are handmade every morning, so they are super fresh. Walking up, I noticed a small area to sit outside and eat when the weather is nice. Walking inside, the place is always packed. They offer many varieties, and a lot of them are very creative. We have tried the butter cream stick, Boston cream, the chocolate glazed, the glazed doughnut holes, red velvet, cinnamon sugar, and s'mores. Personal preference, but I did not care for the Smore's. The Boston cream is good but the cream is more custardy and thick then I typically like. The glazed holes are good, but typical. All the donuts taste very fresh, and I love that about them. My friend turned me onto them several months ago and I wish I could remember what doughnuts she had ordered because they were all so so good. Accompaniments to the doughnuts include coffee, espresso, tea, milk, and juices. We are always on the go when we drop by here, but one day I would like to sit back with the family and relax and eat some more doughnuts! read more

If you're down for crazy donuts and daily surprises, this is your place! I love Dutch Monkey Donuts. They never seem to run out of ideas for your donut fix. I am the kind of person who loves to try new things and crazy combinations with my food. I don't tend to ever eat anything 'plain'. Dutch Monkey always switches up their menu daily, while still maintaining a few of their core choices. They post what their specials are every morning on their Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/dutchmonkeydoughnuts/?fref=ts). It is always so fun for me to wake up in the morning and get excited to check out what they have made for the day. Sometimes, it's even better to go in the store, without checking their specials first, to be surprised that way! They make their donuts from scratch every morning and you can really tell that they are made with all natural ingredients. The flavor stands out with every one of their donuts and they are very high quality. They also have Counter Culture coffee (my FAVE), and you can get a variety of different coffee/espresso drinks. The only downfall is that they are a little pricier than Dunkin' Donuts, which is seconds away, but the increase in price is worth it for the quality! Check this place out! You won't be disappointed. read more

Passion fruit filled donut ! Yummy Got the lemon meringue doughnut! Amazing! This place is a foodies doughnut heaven! I'm not a fan of "doughnuts", I'd rather a crepe or cupcake anyway.... But Dutch monkey is the exception! Really AMAZING! read more

FINALLY had the chance to come here and it was everything I imagined. I bought a nutella twist, the signature dutch monkey doughnut, and a s'mores doughnut as well as a kid-sized dutch monkey hot chocolate. dutch monkey hot chocolate consists of a cocoa-brick and a marshmallow made in-house, some hot water and some banana flavoring. kid-sized was enough for me. drink it while its hot! as if the sugar rush from the hot chocolate wasn't enough, i decided to eat a whole dutch monkey. to clarify, it's dulce de leche cream inside a yeast doughnut, topped with chocolate covered bananas. everything is made in-house (except for the apple and orange juice) so it's fresh and delicious. service was great on a Wednesday morning at 7:30. the kind lady behind the counter gave my friend a free doughnut after she purchased a dozen. psssss...it's 20% off your order if you buy a dozen. definitely a better deal than buying individually. please pardon this reviewer for not talking about the smores and nutella goodness - she's currently bouncing off the walls like a monkey. read more

My honey had given me a taste of some chocolate covered doughnuts from here a couple months back, so I was excited when we decided to do a detour here for my son on our way to Church last Sunday. We all love doughnuts in this family but my son is the ultimate doughnut eater. Pulled up and the place was pretty busy. We walked in and hardly anybody was talking. It was like a scene from the Twilight Zone. This was a plus, as every single person in there was stuffing themselves silly. The people that were talking only did so bc they were about to start their next doughnut (probably to tell the other person they were starting their next doughnut). We ordered two cinnamon doughnuts, one Boston creme and one mini hole. It didn't take much coaxing to get my son to eat his (he was upset about going to Church, hence the stop to get his attitude adjusted). Little man chowed them down and promptly said they were his second favorite doughnuts. That in my book earns 4 stars. My doughnut was really good but the custard inside was a little thicker than my preference. My honey ate her doughnut hole so fast, I didn't really get a verdict from her. I doubt she even tasted it. I'm looking forward to a second return trip here to taste test more but pretty sure this might be our stop on future trips to Church with my son. read more

The staff was very nice and well knowledgeable about everything. Very creative donuts and coffee. Well worth the drive from Alpharetta.

Fantastic donuts made from scratch. Wonderful service. Good parking. Casual ambience.

Always a fun, unique selection. I never leave disappointed! Staff is always helpful and courteous. Bathrooms are always clean. And they know what a large coffee is. read more

Coming from a New York City environment, I miss having a great bakery on the corner and the wonderful pastries and donuts at my beckon call. Well, today I found a great shop that fills the void! I tried many of their donuts and all I can say is " awesome!" Their pricing is like a gourmet shop but the donuts exceeded my expectations. Happy to pay the premium. Try this place !!! read more

I'm actually not a huge doughnut/donut person, but all the rave reviews and purdy social media photos of Dutch Monkey's doughnuts had me curious. I found it amusing that Dutch Monkey is next to a pediatrics office. I'm sure a lot of parents bribe their kids with doughnuts after appointments. Pastries are priced from $1.35 to $3.85. The young lady assisting us was knowledgeable and quite polite. We sampled the following: *Boston Cream--Our favorite. And it must be a lot of people's favorites since it sold out before a second one could be purchased. I supposed it was for the best? *Mango Ginger--I really liked this selection. It's coated in granulated sugar, not a glaze. The mango ginger filing reminded me slightly of applesauce, but it was quite smooth and not too sweet. *Dutch Monkey--This one has a dulce de leche filling and ganache glaze with banana slices. Not bad. *Lemon Meringue--The lemon filling was really notable: not too tart and not too sugary. The confection is topped with a meringue which reminded me of marshmallow fluff and a dusting of powdered sugar. *Peanut Butter Bismark--This doughnut reminded me of a chocolate peanut butter pie in a hole shape. Just give me the filling and forget the doughnut. Yummy. I think what really sets Dutch Monkey apart is their fillings. While doughnut stuffings at some place like Dunkin' remind me of mass-made jam from the grocery store, you can truly taste the quality that goes into 'em here. For a small shop, I was surprised that there were two single-person bathrooms in the back. Excellent. Parking wasn't an issue in the shopping center. read more

Best coffee and also I love the Gluten free options!! Had a blueberry cream gluten free doughnut this morning and it was delicious!!! I would definitely stop in and see what great options and doughnuts they have you won't be sorry read more

Really disappointed I went off the ratings and went to this place Sooo expensive And my glaze donut was so hard I don't get how this place got good reviews. My husbands donut was hard as well So weird read more

This place is a must try at least once...Love this place...It is definitely worth every calorie!!

Legit. Great selection. A proper indulgence. A few gluten free varieties. Creative and fun.

1 Dutch Monkey doughnut beats a dozen Dunkin and 2 dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts all day long. Each one is a little masterpiece. All fillings and toppings are scratch-made using fresh, in-season ingredients. Coffee lovers - do not sleep on the Coffee Cream Bismark. read more

not super impressed! it was recommended by a friend so had to try it. the cinnamon roll was by far the best! the nutella twist was dry & not worth it. they're known for their cake donuts so those (the blueberry & chocolate) WERE good but also not blown away by them. the not samoa was like a samoa girl scout cookie, that one was good. the dutch monkey is like a bananas foster so if you like banana i would definitely try that one. honestly would probably only go back for the cinnamon roll! read more

Went for the first time. Being hard of hearing I was concerned how to order in drive-thru with no set idea of what they have. The lady in the drive-thru window put up a menu, which was very convenient. She was super nice and pleasant. Not usually a donut fan, but these were fantastic. Got the grasshopper cake, it was fairly good. Also got the Dutch Monkey, which was superb. The cinnamon pull apart was good as well. Pricing was just a little more than I expected, but not obnoxiously so. Cant wait to try something raspberry from them. Very courteous and friendly staff. Highly recommend. read more

Great doughnuts! Always good customer service and just unique and tasty flavors of food.

Dutch Monkey is a gourmet doughnut shop with a visible presentation layer rivaled only by the sublime taste of the doughnuts themselves. To give you a picture, their POS runs on an Apple. How cool is that? The entire restaurant, everything about it, is just cool. From the logo to the seating area to the portals that allow you to view the kitchen while waiting in the weekend lines, they have thought of everything. In addition to the basics, they have a wide array of sugary selections that more closely resemble art than food. I've never been disappointed with anything I've ordered at Dutch Monkey. My favorite is the Bavarian Creme, but the cinnamon twist is a close second. read more

Can never go wrong with Dutch Monkey. The best atmosphere, kindest staff, and best donuts! A Forsyth County classic :)

What an incredible find that is fortunately very convenient for us to visit! After eating these doughnuts for the first time, I knew these doughy gems were a unique treat. I visited the website to read the owners' impressive resumes. Wow! I am not a fan of doughnuts generally, but I certainly love these! Thank you for existing in my life! read more

I've been coming here for about 9 years. The quality of their pastries are phenomenal. Everything is handmade with no preservatives. You can even watch them make the doughnuts through the window to the kitchen. Their options change daily. My favs are their cake doughnuts. Yummy! read more

I stop by whenever I am in the Cumming area. The Carmel Latte is delicious. They make it perfect every time. The staff is super friendly. The donuts are delicious. My favorite is the strawberry bar. Not too sweet but extremely fresh. read more

They will capture your phone number from the credit card scan and then spam your phone with text offers that cannot be stopped. Donuts are pretty good. Business sketchy. read more

We haven't been to DMD in about 2 years but now that we live only 7 miles away and the boy started high school just down the street today, we couldn't resist a donut on his first day of 9th grade. I had the mini nutella twist and the boy had the dutch crumb. Both were perfection and just the boost we needed for a busy day! read more

Dutch Monkey is a cute local shop, favorite among Cumming/Suwanee/Alpharetta crowd. They offer average tasting doughnuts with some interesting flavor combos for a premium price. Some of the donuts sampled were blueberry lemon ginger fritter, chocolate chip twist, strawberry and cream sandwich, and few others. Their dough is similar to other shops, nothing spectacular or special, some donuts are smaller than others so get 2 if you like your carbs with coffee. However service is always top notch, love everyone who works here. Only reason for 3 stars is price-to-quality-to-quantity being off, feels like overpaying for novelty flavors, not quality of donuts. Happy to continue to come back to support locally owned businesses! read more

I am not sure where these employees go for customer service training (Chick fil a Camp?) but I always feel so charmed and revered while visiting this store! We have lived near here for a little over a year but I didn't know about it until about 6 months ago. I saved lots of calories those first few months because now I want to go every morning! I follow them on Instagram so I know what is baking up everyday and it is always so appetizing. I have lived all over the country but these are truly some of the best donuts I have ever had! read more

Gluten free donuts and great coffee! Love having a donut shop that caters to special dietary needs.

When I have that "morning sweet tooth" I have to go to Dutch Monkey. It's a small shop off of Ronald Reagan and Peachtree Parkway, next to Burger King...kind of. I'm a massive fan of the Dutch Monkey donut, which is a chocolate banana confection. They have a terrific assortment of freshly-baked goods, and they hit every type of flavor of sweet, from fruity to chocolate to caramel and salt. They do bars, specialty donuts, and some really nice pastries as well. A little on the pricier side, but you get what you pay for. I put 4 dozen of them out on the dessert table at my wedding, and they were absolutely devoured, and we still had cupcakes left over from our Baker, so if that tells you anything, Dutch Monkey is just yummy! read more

Best doughnuts ever. Try the maple bacon for a savory sweet treat. I'd love to see them try gluten free doughnuts. Wife is a Celiac Disease sufferer. read more

Always the best donuts! Amazing flavor combinations. I'm a sucker for their Apple fritter when they have them!

Never had a bad experience here. The doughnuts are always great tasting and a perfect treat or every day meal. lol.

I'm not a fan of donuts. I was dragged by my coworkers...and I ended up buying a box of these beautiful looking and absolutely melt in your mouth rounds of heaven. The Nutella, Oreo and Cinnamon Twist, So many to choose from. If you are from there...check it out. Cute little shop, sweet employees it's one of those shops you want to support, and deserve it. read more

Went on a Saturday and it was very busy. With the long line we thought it was going to be good. There is no menu listed so you must wait until you get to the window to see what they have or walk in. We ordered to large coffees, 2 glazed and two cinnamon rolls. Did not care for the glazed doughnuts as it seemed like a cross between cake and yeast. Cinnamon rolls were ok but topped with cream cheese icing? It's a bit expensive costing us $17. Not the best for the price today. Presentation is awesome...... read more

Say good bye to greasy stomach ache doughnuts.... These things are great and tasty. 2 thumbs up.
