    If you are considering coming here... JUST DO IT!!!! The lemon zinger bite was unreal. There was a group from the UK in there that had already gone to two other donut shops and said this was the best by far. You won't regret it!!! Also Garrett is the sweetest ever. What a great experience :)

    Addictive donuts. Initially we were hesitant because we just wanted individual donuts and they only come in packs of six, but in fact we needed six and then another six. They were fresh, hot, and perfect two-bite donuts. The Boston cream were great, would definitely recommend ones with the chocolate glaze.

    Nice little corner stop shop with some seating right off the street! Honestly this place is cute with average service. They do have bathrooms too! There are a ton of doughnut options but keep in mind they're bite size and are fried. There may be larger ones I'm not sure. They were good but very sweet, not my favorite but others in my party loved them.

    Classic White glaze

    Got the Classic White glaze donuts. I liked the fact they came mini sized. The donuts themselves were pretty good! A slightly crispy outside but soft on the inside! Enjoyed them. Loved that they were warm, as no other donut shop offers this. Decor inside was well done!

    Not the biggest donut person but these little minis were just enough for me and my mom.. now I love anything that is lemon flavor so though the icing looks like a overload I promise you won't regret it.

    Stopped by from out of town, donuts are very fresh and taste great! Definitely recommend.

    Wow, these donuts are absolutely out of this world! I definitely think I understand the entire hype and everything about them. They come out super Duper warm and it taste so good when it's fresh however, the only thing that I would say is that it was kind of hard to find parking near it, and it was kind of disappointing that you could only order one flavor for six donuts. They made them fast n super super Duper clean inside.

    Made to order donuts! Served hot and fresh. I highly recommend and seems like a grate catered food too as they also have a food truck. Perfect bite sized donuts for any occasion. We ordered the 007 and blueberry cheesecake. Both were great. I love the dough and how it's crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Sweet for my taste but it's a great shareable food and toppings had great flavor. I loved the indoor upstairs seating area. Parking: street parking

    I originally had these donuts when they had their truck at the fryberg fair and I seriously couldn't stop thinking about them since. I went on a trip with my boyfriend to Portland and I had to get these donuts. I wish that I had gotten a different flavor as I just got powdered sugar, but even though it was still good. They are so warm and so delicious. I can't wait to get them again.

    Only being able to buy packs of one flavor. ( event though they are small ) isn't great to me. I'd love to try all the flavors or at least two or three in one box. We ordered Boston Cream and a box of Chocolate. Husband also wanted a hot chocolate and asked what made the Coco Loco Loco. Cashier had no idea and made no attempt to ask. We waited inside and after 5 or so min a young lady handed us 2 boxes. So we left with them. Turned out not to be the donuts we ordered. They were maple and cookies and cream. We ate them any way. Guessing some got our order and we got theirs. They were good though. I don't fell like the young lady taking orders on the front end has had any customer service training. If a customer asked a question and you don't know the answer fine out who does. If you take names for orders, before handing them to someone double check the name. We aren't from this area but if we were we wouldn't be back.

    Boston Cream donuts
    Caroline L.

    Yummy mini donuts! But they are made fresh to order. It's a box of six of ONE flavor or a box of 25 and you can choose FIVE flavors. We got two boxes of 6 - chocolate dipped and Boston cream. Donuts are fried fresh and served hot. Base donut is all the same and the toppings vary. They were light, fresh and delicious. Highly recommend!

    Lemon and berry. I could have and almost ate this box of minis by myself
    Joanna R.

    Great donuts! Great owners!! I have gone to their brick and mortar location during the donut "food fights" event. They were in our top 2 of the dozen we tried that day. They had a lot of different flavors you could choose from and they make the flavors in half dozen qty. The fruit flavors are so vibrant - especially the lemon. Wow so good. The fact they are made to order is incredible. that magic machine in the back we watched, reminded me of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory OG movie...with the everlasting gobstoppers. :) It was magical to watch. They hand apply the glazes/flavors. The owner to the time to chat with us when he realized it was our first visit and I was wide eyed and excited to be there. The donuts were so great that not only did we use our coupons, but we bought additional donuts and without shame ate every single one of them that same day! I highly recommend their donuts and supporting the owners. I like this business a lot and am trying to find an excuse to invite them to a party..their truck is for hire.

    Visiting from out of town, 8:00am Saturday: no line, full selection, friendly and chill vibes…read more These donuts have a slightly chewy, dense texture that is very pleasant and not quite like any other baked good I can think of. The flavor doesn't hit you immediately but develops as you chew. A novel donut. Lemon, vanilla, and blueberry were my favorites. The whoopie pie donut tastes just like a whoopie pie, if that's your thing. I was a little disappointed in the sweet potato ginger -- I don't think I could have identified the flavors in a blind tasting, too subtle. But still tasty. Definitely recommend this spot for a different kind of donut experience.

    I've Seen Better Glaze…read more Family-owned chain of donut shops that started off in a home kitchen driven with a dream and some Maine potatoes, and has turned into one of Downtown Portland's biggest foodie destinations. Holy Donut opened their first Portland location back in 2012, and they now have five locations around the state, including this DT location which is probably their busiest. The Good: *Vegan & Gluten-free offerings--but they're not synonymous! Check the fine print or ask. *Coast-to-Coast shopping options, including vending machines (we saw some at PWM). *Online ordering available for pickup. Tbh this is probably the way to get them, as you can skip the line and go straight to the back at the pickup window and just get your stuff right quick. You're welcome. *Donuts are made daily from scratch and feature seasonal and limited flavors. The Meh: *You'll most likely have to pay for parking at this DT location. *You'll also most likely encounter a large line to order from, depending on the time of day. When we walked by earlier before lunch it was HUGE, but after lunch it was down to manageable ±10 people ifo of us, and it did move pretty quick, as well. I mean, it is just donuts ffs. It shouldn't take you more than a few minutes to decide. The Ugly: *Pricing is a bit obscene at ±$5/ea, but it's to be expected in a extremely popular area full of tourists and cruises. *Take this with a grain of salt, as I'm very particular about donuts in general, but I found them to be very heavy and just OK. Also, the flavors could've been punchier, as I found the taste a little too muted for my liking. Conclusion: Definitely not worth a long wait or the price imo, but if you're in the area, the line is short, and you have $5 burning a hole in your pocket then I say go for it. Because, evidently, I'm in the minority judging by the popularity and reviews. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The interior of the donut shop is stylish and welcoming, and I saw a few bar seats if you want to stay to eat. There were plenty of flavors; we ended up trying the Portland Fog (i.e. lavender + earl grey), maple cruller, and chocolate & sea salt cruller. Service at the counter was quick. The donuts were all tasty! I actually liked the Portland Fog donut texture better than the crullers, which were nice and airy but a bit soggy/limp for me. The Portland Fog was especially delicious -- I love a lavender + earl grey combo -- though I wish it was 10% lighter on the lavender flavor. The chocolate & sea salt flavor combo was also delicious (though you can never go wrong with that flavor pairing). I will flag for those with dietary restrictions that there are unfortunately no vegan or vegetarian donuts here, since they fry all their donuts in lard. Overall, a pleasant experience. I'm looking forward to trying more flavors!

There was so much to select from - we got pastries, cookies, pizza and bread - and we pretty much liked everything. Our least favorite was the morning bun with walnuts - we didn't have it right away so that might've been part of the issue. Just note that the bread served at the restaurants aren't available until 2pm - we were leaving that morning so we weren't going wait for it. We opted for other loaves instead and they didn't disappoint. If you want something yummy and fresh - make sure to stop by here before heading out of Portland. I do wish the setup was a bit more conducive to the big crowds as there isn't much space from the front door to the counter but still a fantastic find!

Four adults and a toddler sampled a bunch of donuts - sounds like the start of a terrible joke...These are my notes on all of the donuts and not a consensus from the group, in no particular order. Woopie pie: 4 stars - good flavor and texture, nice way to begin this sampling experience. Bacon cheddar fried donut: 5 stars - delicious, amazing flavor, served hot, good distribution of fillings; would gladly have this again! Margarita: 3 stars - definitely taste the salt and lime, little bit of tequila as well; glad I experienced this, not something I'll go back for. Key lime holy cannoli: 5 stars - love the texture of the donut, light and fluffy, good lime flavor and enjoyed the cannoli cream. Creme brulee: 3 stars - good flavor, the crystallized chunks of sugar were a nice touch; I had high hopes, and it was alright but not life changing - that's on me. Maple: 3 stars - typical maple donut, not overwhelming with flavor but definitely knew it was maple. Maple bacon: 4 stars - lots of bacon, almost balanced by the maple. Blueberry lemon: 5 stars - really great lemon flavor to the glaze, blueberry flavor comes through the donut nicely; looking forward to having this again! Vanilla holy cannoli: 5 stars - again, love the texture of the donut, classic flavor with the cannoli cream; I would gladly eat a whole one of these! Chocolate sea salt: 3 stars - good chocolate flavor, didn't get much of the sea salt coming through. Pomegranate: 4 stars - very sweet, good amount of pomegranate flavor; could not eat a whole one as it would be too sweet for me. Honey lavender: 5 stars - mmm, honey and lavender partnered nicely, sweet but not obnoxiously so, loved how well the lavender flavor came through; I very much so enjoy botanicals in sweet treats and lattes. Toasted coconut: 5 stars - deliciously sweet coconut taste, nostalgic flavor of something my grandma use to make, I really enjoyed it! Such a fun way to bond with friends and spend a relaxing morning on vacation! Would gladly get donuts here again, and now that i know my favorites, I can be more intentional with my order next time
