Once again , Eighty 8 Donuts in Portland is a must. Their donuts are insanely fresh -- like you can actually taste how just-made they are. Soft, perfect texture, not stale for a second, and every flavor I've tried has been straight up delicious. Some of the people who work there could be a tad more polite but overall they are nice. The donuts are so good that they could call me names and I'd still come back! kidding but for real these are GAME CHANGING DONUTS!!! Also, huge bonus: they serve solid coffee from Tandem, so you're not stuck with mediocre coffee to go with a great donut. Everything I've had from here hits -- donuts, coffee, the whole vibe. If you're in Portland, this spot is 100% worth it. read more

Shoutout to Eighty 8 Donuts, our go-to for every "what do we bring?" moment at social events. We've been enjoying their donuts for years, and somehow they just keep getting better. Truly some of the best in town. The staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the donuts are consistently fresh and delicious. This week, I called literally 20 minutes before closing to place an order and they couldn't have been more gracious. And please never get rid of the 25 mini donut party box. Being able to choose any five flavors is a huge reason we keep coming back. We love you, Eighty 8! read more

How have I not discovered this place sooner? It is awesome. The donuts are miniature, and you get 6 of one flavor. The price varies slightly depending on which donut you choose. They are served made-to-order and warm. The young girl working the counter was very helpful. DELISH! read more

Stopped by Eighty 8 Donuts and treated myself to The Homer and a coffee. Wow--these donuts are something else! They were perfectly fluffy, soft, and light, and honestly, almost too pretty to eat. I found myself just staring at it for a second, like, "Do I dare?" But once I took that first bite, it was pure bliss--the sweetness balanced perfectly, and the texture was spot-on. The coffee paired beautifully and rounded out the experience. The staff was friendly, the shop has a nice vibe, and everything just felt like a little treat for the soul. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to again and again! read more

these donuts are seriously the best donuts I've ever had in my life. I usually get them at the Friberg fair with my family and we all pick a few flavors to share. They are just so delicious and warm and made right on the spot. I haven't been to the Portland location, but I would assume they are just as good there as well. I would recommend this place fair fast and friendly. read more

Service was friendly,the donut shop was cool and had an upstairs and outside dining area. We loved that the donuts were freshly made to order. Only downside to this experience was the prices were too high for tiny donuts. They were the size of hostess mini donuts. $1.40 per mini hostess size donuts. Its a one time experience for us. The definitely taste better than the holy donut. Thats a whole other review. From 1 to 10 overall score 7. Would have scored higher but the price point is just crazy for tiny donuts.3 stars best we could give. read more

After hearing so much about Holy Donut -- and not being able to get any because it was after 3pm -- we decided to check out Eighty 8 just to satisfy our donut craving. When we got there, we were told their donuts come in a set of six bite-sized pieces and are made to order, so they come out warm and fresh. That already sounded promising. We ordered the chocolate, maple, and my husband got one topped with bacon (not my thing, but he liked it). I was honestly surprised -- the other two were really good. Warm, soft, flavorful, and not overly sweet. Just right. We ended up having Holy Donut the next day... and wow. I'm so glad we tried Eighty 8 first because, in my opinion, they're a thousand times better. Don't sleep on this place -- it was a total win. read more

This place is so unique. I have never had such fancy mini donuts. I didn't know anything about this place and did not expect the mini donuts so it was a really fun surprise. They are all made to order so it takes a little bit but it's worth it. The boxes and the shop are also super cute, very instagramable. We got the Boston cream and fruity pebble donuts. Although the fruity pebbles were my pick I liked the Boston cream better. My only complaint is maybe a little too sweet, like the ratio of donut to topping could be dialed back a little. read more

Came to Maine from Virginia. Mother was given terminal diagnosis so we want to treat her to a place she's never been to and Maine was it. On Day one we went to Boothbay for some seafood and I did some research on donut spots since she loves donuts. The next morning we went with our yorkies and my folks and this place was amazing. She first thought I was nuts when she asked how many did I order and I told her 30. lol. I ordered the mini package and this about sums it up. We stayed for 7 days and went to Eighty 8 on 3 of those days. They're that freaking good! read more

Small, fresh donuts. Served warm and fully covered in their respective toppings. Slightly disappointed you have to buy 6 of one flavor but it's their way of serving them fresh. Of course we went for Maine Maple... DELICIOUS! Great size, super warm, not terribly priced. Why not 5 stars? I only got to try one flavor and so much of the topping wears off the donut because it is so warm. Very messy. read more

May be the best donuts I've ever had in my life. They were so good we brought 25 home with us to New Jersey for our family to try! The staff was so kind and patient while we decided what we wanted and helpful with making flavor selections. read more

Bite-sized donuts, warm & fresh. Amazing experience, friendly staff. We stopped in briefly & were not disappointed.

Expensive but adorably packaged and guaranteed hot. Best mini donuts I've ever had Esp for touring Portland Downtown: highly recommend eating at Highroller lobster but lunch and walk around the corner to eat these donuts! read more

This donut place was just around the corner from Highroller. After having lobster rolls for lunch, I wanted something sweet. Portland has an amazing donut scene that includes Eighty 8. We got the Lemon Zinger and Cookies and Cream specialty bites. They were all freshly made and we only had to wait a few minutes. The donuts are so pillowy soft and practically melts in your mouth. They were so good that my sister and I had to pick up another box on our way out of Portland. read more

I saw a picture of these beautiful donuts on Instagram and had to try it out! So amazing! I love that they are coated in flavor and small enough to eat in one bite- you get all the flavor at once! I was with friends so we ordered three varieties. Lemon zinger, 007, and BAMM BAMM. I loved the lemon zinger and 007, but just thought the BAMM BAMM was ok. Counter service was good and helpful. The weather was perfect, so we got to sit outside and enjoy our delicious donuts! read more

I was lucky to have Eighty 8 Donuts Cafe as one of the food trucks at a corporate event. Their mini donuts in numerous tasty flavors is just the right amount of sweet. I was so impressed that I looked them up so that I could try more of their delicious options. The donuts are served warm, and each flavor is distinct. The only downside for me was that they only sell the donuts as 5 per flavor. They do offer a 25 count variety box, but you still have to order them in groups of 5. I'm not sure why, but they are strict on this rule. I purchased 2 "sugar rush " boxes, totaling 50 mini donuts and still didn't get a taste all of their flavors. The store is well located in Portland and is adorable. The service was slowish (they hand-dip each order fresh) but very pleasant. I will definitely be back, but I hope they change their order rule. read more

Great bite sized donuts Be forewarned, these made to order donuts are little sugar bombs yes but they are yum and bite sized, so grab a friend and share the sugar overload! On two separate trips to this location, I tried the Cookies and Cream, Maple Bourbon, and Boston Cream. The Cookies and Cream was definitely a favorite for the younger crowd, the Maple Bourbon definitely has a stronger than expected Bourbon with much sweetness from the Maple. The Boston Cream was rich and a little less sweeter than the others. I also appreciated the cream on the outside not squirting out the other end on a bite. LOL. Everyone behind the counter was great, they look like they have fun at work and provided great suggestions for my orders. read more

I thought their Doughnuts are delicious! I had Boston Cream and lemon zinger and both were fresh and delicious!! Their doughnuts are bite sized and smaller than typical doughnuts. They don't have a large variety of flavors to choose from but their choices were sufficient. I got there 20 minutes before closing and they didn't have any more regular brew coffee left which was disappointing. The service was friendly and helpful. The location was clean and well lit. I definitely recommend checking this place out. It's unique and delicious!! read more

This place is awesome!! We were headed to the lobster place around the corner and came across here. At first we saw that it was $8 for 6 donuts and were like "wow! What a steal!!" But the lady quickly told us that the donuts are 2-bite size each and tiny, so we reconsidered our order size lol. We did an order of 30 for $25, which was definitely enough for my group of 4. You can choose 5 flavors and we did the strawberry, chocolate, powdered, fruity pebbles, and maple flavors. Omg they are made to order and come out fresh, hot, with dripping frosting. OMG THE FRUITY PEBBLES!! SO GOOD! The outside seating area is cute too. This place is great & was a nice surprise treat for us on our trip up here! read more

What started as a food truck has now become their second physical location with the first cafe being at Sugarloaf. I have wanted to get my hands on these donuts ever since I first saw they were a thing. It never came to be as I was a little too far out from Portland to ever see their food truck. Then a couple years went by and I had mostly forgotten about my goal of trying these tiny donuts. Until a stroll through Portland to try a different breakfast oriented place and I knew I needed to stop in. Well I'm glad I randomly walked by this cafe and even happier I got two different flavors. I would recommend either one and likely any of the others as well (even without trying them). I think I'd give a slight edge to the cookies n cream aka Oreo donuts. If you have tried the food truck you know what to expect. If you haven't heard of the food truck it doesn't matter make your way here. If you're like me and wanted to try the food truck and never got a chance to, then don't sweat it, you got a permanent location you know you can snag this donuts at. The donuts may be small but the flavor is anything but that; big and bold sweetness. read more

The girl at the register was very sweet! We came here first thing in the morning and just needed to try these little donuts of heaven. They only do a box of 6 of one flavor of your choice. I ordered a chocolate box and a Bavarian chocolate box. I would recommend eating some the minute you get them because the warm fresh flavor of these little tiny delights will knock your socks off. These donuts are the best donuts I've ever experienced. The vibe is sort of 80s with bright colors and neon lights! This was one of the highlights of my first visit to Maine. read more

Amazing! They are made on the spot so they are nice and warm and fresh. The staff was friendly, the wait was short.

Amazing made to order bite sized donuts. They were fresh, hot, slightly crispy and the glaze was just perfect. You can get one flavor for every 1/2 dozen. My bf and I agreed that the Maine Maple donuts were one of the best donut bites we ever had. Our pup even needed a sniff. They also had a doggy biscuit for him from the tin on the counter. I wish we tried more flavors but we just finished lunch around the corner at High Roller Lobster Co and needed to get back on the road. Definitely found my favorite donuts in Portland on this stop! read more

Ten out of ten, I do recommend these warm, melty, not too sweet mini donuts. A++! Yelp keeps making me make this review longer in order to post it, but the less I have to say the better! ;) read more

These doughnuts are melt in your mouth delicious!! Cinnamon Sugar! Spoke with the owner (I think!) about the cafe location and history.

This location gave me a great experience.. I'm from out of town, NC, and my friend told me I had to try these donuts. Grace was extremely welcoming, patient, and kind. And the donuts are delicious! I will definitely be back if I'm ever in the area again. read more

This is my happy place. The doughnuts are fresh, like still hot fresh. They have a wide variety of flavors. Today, I got The Homer. It's a strawberry glazed donut with sprinkles. I inhaled them. read more

I would rate this place top 5 best donuts I've ever had, and I've had a lot of donuts. I was really confused when first ordering because I didn't realize the donuts were bite sized. The lemon zinger was my favorite. The donuts were lightly crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Because they were bite size, the donut to glaze ratio was perfect per each bite. Would highly recommend! read more

These freshly made mini donuts were our families favorites of all the donuts we tried in Portland. Sweet staff.

I experienced these donuts at a food truck at a concert in Portland. They had unique flavors, were fresh, and delicious. The only thing missing was a glass of milk! They have a shop downtown, too. read more

I love how adorable these look and the bite size of them. They are freshly made to order and warm when you get them. The only downside is that the frosting can melt sometimes down the side, but it is still worth it. They have a good selection for classics and also do a rotating special. They are kinda pricey and come in 1 pack of 6 same flavor typically, or you can get 25ct like I did and mix it up. It's definitely worth trying. The place is small downstairs, but they do have another small area upstairs u can sit at. When I walked in, there was 1 person at the counter who greeted me with a smile. read more

This place should have a line out the door with how amazing these donuts are. Made to order, you can customize each mini donut as you want and they come out beautiful and hot. I have to say these were probably the best donuts I've had in my life. Want to shout Brendan who went above and beyond to make the experience with my sister and I so special. He's knowledgeable, passionate, and couldn't have been nicer. He definitely made our experience so pleasant. Give this man a raise!!! We will be back. Do yourself a favor, if you're in Portland, make sure you stop into Eighty 8 for some delicious mini donuts & a latte. Thank me later!! read more
