    I have breakfast before I head out to explore each day, so donuts are more of a treat for me than a meal. In fact, I rarely eat donuts; but I do know flavor and I really enjoyed each of the ones I bought at Jack's. Why you may want to go here: 1. They accept credit cards here so you don't have to stop at a bank machine to have enough cash like at Long's. 2. Although I didn't use it, they have a drive through lane so you don't have to get out of your car. 3. They have a wide variety of donuts. Even within categories, they may have some filled with raspberry jelly, Bavarian creme, or sweet white fluffy filling. 4. They offer some powdered, some flaky, some drizzled or spread with chocolate. 5. The apple fritter I picked up was so good, that I got maybe two bites before my wife finished it off. She normally likes yeast donuts, but she tore into that one and made it disappear like magic! 6. They have indoor seating and offer some beverages to go with your order. 7. They had several folks working behind the counter (one kept restocking the front order counter). Very pleasant and patient with customers. 8. Very reasonably priced. I got all four of my selections for under $5. For anyone who complains about these being too expensive, try making them at home and you will find out that the price is very reasonable. 9. All the stuffed donuts were filled almost end to end. I am so tired of other places that put a glob of filling in one end leaving the other end empty. Not here! 10. Even if you decide to stop in, there is plenty of free parking outside the shop. And that's why I liked picking up donuts here! Review #3704

    Case full of delicious donuts

    Jacks donuts is a wonderful donut shop on the south side of Indianapolis . So many varieties to choose from . There is ample meeting space inside and lots of easy access parking outside. Located right behind the McDonalds

    Chocolate rolls and strawberry filled - what's left of the staff box.

    A little underwhelmed after all of the hype coming of Jack's coming to Greenwood. Right now it's really hit or miss what selection you're going to have and whether or not they're even open due to demand (as of this review, they're closing around 6pm every day - watch Facebook for updates when they run out of donuts each day), but I can't say this is necessarily worth the wait. I went on a Saturday morning so expected to wait in line. I was lucky to not have a whole lot of people in front of me, but a line quickly formed behind me. Selection was still pretty good, but it would have been great to have some signs of what was available instead of *every* person having to ask "What's this thing here?" and then being disappointed by the answer. Clearly they have a lot of choices and what you see isn't exactly what you get (is that filled with raspberry, strawberry, bavarian creme, peanut butter, or nothing?) so some kind of guide would be helpful. They didn't have any Long Johns (or "chocolate sticks" as they appear to be called around here) and the worker sounded like they aren't making them at this point. (Hopefully this is just a "new location" thing and not permanent.) Here's my biggest gripe: it's pricey. A dozen donuts is $12, and individual donuts are going to cost you more. It does seem to be consistent - a glazed donut is the same price as a "specialty" donut. That's different from the other Jack's locations I've been to. Quality is really good, but not better than other places that don't cost as much. Service was all right - everyone seemed a little confused and overwhelmed, and they were complaining about people calling in sick (and how many times that person had called in) and not having enough people in front of customers, which was a little disappointing. I expected a bit more professionalism to not have that conversation in front of the line. I guess they were too short handed to step away from the line to have the conversation, so I understand to a point. Long's still takes the cake (or the donut, in this case) for me as the best on the south side of Indianapolis. But this is a bit more convenient for me and I think they'll really hit a sweet spot once they're able to stay open longer - I don't know of many places that stay open until 9pm.

    The great doughy donuts....

    Checked out Jacks Donuts in Greenwood at 5:30 pm and the variety of donuts were great. Stocked and fresh and consistent with the perfect doughy density and size the best Jacks is known for. Taking a break with my coffee I was appreciating the distraction of having the news on the provided tv monitor. The sound wasn't on nor the closed caption, so I asked the staff if they wouldn't mind turning on the closed caption so I could understand what these talking heads were saying- and no debate for the request ensued. Immediately and enthusiastically they complied and turned it on. Really appreciated that! Caught up on the news, had my donut and coffee break and went away a contented man. Thanks Jack!!!!!!

    I do not know if I caught this shop on a good day or if the other reviews are way off, but I really liked this place. The woman working there was very friendly. The donuts are very reasonably priced and they have a wide selection of exotic donuts. They had a fruity pebbles one, a strawberry cream cheese one and Oreo one. Mmmmmmm. My daughter and I tore through a half dozen like a hot knife through butter. They were delicious. I look forward to going back soon.

    Jack's donuts has something to offer just about anyone! We went in today and were almost overwhelmed by all the donut choices. I like that they have unique options-oreo glazed donuts, strawberry cream cheese, blueberry cream cheese, and apple fritters. But they also have the classics-cake donuts, sprinkles, and plain glazed. The donuts are so fresh and soft, absolutely delicious. One downside is they dont have (at least the couple times I have been) filled long johns. They have regular long donuts not filled with anything and with sprinkles, which is equally as good but not quite the same! Would recommend if you are on the Southside.

    Halo is there for size reference! Poptart donut of strawberry, very good but had to split into 4 pieces from being so sweet.
    Brooke J.

    Despite not having some donuts, the lady gave us a free one for having to wait for one donut to be made! Worth the wait and since they are still trying to adjust to the demand, Jacks is still one of the best donuts around Indy. Service of friendly workers makes us come back for more, keep up the work Jacks

Even when the line is long (and it usually is!), it moves quickly, and the staff is always friendly and efficient. The smell of fresh donuts when you walk in alone is worth the trip.

The person who took my order had asked me what color flowers and what I wanted written on the cake. So someone had to have remembered me. The employee then told me it was at the Indianapolis location. So we drove another 30 minutes north to their other location, only to be told the cake was not there either and they had no record of it. We drove a total of 2 hours both ways for a cake that did not exist, when they could have simply told us the truth. We missed our daughter's bday dinner. Do not trust Southport bakery for important orders. Sending someone to a distant location knowing their cake was not there is messed up.

They have a couple of tables inside that you can sit and eat your treat at and smooth music playing throughout the shop. They serve hot and iced coffee, milk, juices, donut holes and of course, donuts. The woman that were working there were not overly friendly, but were nice enough. I got a half dozen to split with me and the littles. They had a pretty good selection of donuts available, some traditional and some exotic. They are not labeled, so I had to ask what a few of them were. I got a regular glazed, a chocolate glazed with sprinkles, a blueberry filled with blueberry icing, a white icing with candy sprinkles and a long glazed with chocolate drizzle. The donuts were tasty, fluffy and fresh. I really enjoyed them and I am sure that my littles did too. This is a pretty good donut shop in Greenwood and definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

There are two small tables if you want to dine in. There are lots of pretty donuts to choose from. I'm not sure you can go wrong with any of the choices.

The donuts were really sweet but delicious. The staff weren't overly friendly but polite. Since they're so pretty, these donuts would be a great option for a birthday or other celebration.

Took my daughter who was visiting from Cali and she almost decided to stay just to be able to have these donuts regularly.

The service was great and we got there during a time when they were completely dead and had to make our donuts to order so they were super fresh. We took them home after trying them in the shop so that we could heat them up a little and they were even better warm. 10/10. I can't wait to go back.

Not to mention that our handicap-able friends with disabilities would not be able to make it in this establishment because of their carelessness with cleaning the snow. There was also a terrible sulfur smell that assaulted my nose upon opening the door. Either they were making the world's biggest batch of scrambled eggs or they have a plumbing problem. Very disappointed with this location.

I ordered a grilled cheese along with a sugar pie slice and a London fog. They have other baked good options which looked good too. The grilled cheese was very small and I think cheese got into the pan because it was also cooked onto the bottom side of the sandwich. It was a very small grilled cheese. The London fog tasted quite strong and the sugar pie didn't really stand out. There were other items on the menu though that I'd love to try if I ever go back. What I think took this down to 3 stars was the service. When I went to order, I was just stared at and I thought maybe they weren't ready for me yet but they were. There was just no greeting of "Hi, welcome in" or even a "What can I get for you?" It was just a stare and silence. Now the staff were not unkind...they certainly seemed friendly but that lack of greeting didn't feel great. Additionally, they were very quiet or mumbled when calling out orders and so it seemed like many people listening never heard their order including me. I also had to ask again for the pie after having paid. I bought a bandana as well and didn't see the price tag. When I asked how much it was the staff member said it was either 12 or 15 dollars. She rang it up as 15 when later I saw the price tag and it clearly said $12. I showed the staff member and she said it was $15 and it was a handwriting issue for the price tag. I rarely write reviews less than five stars but I do think if there could be a bit more initiative from the staff and orders called out more clearly and louder for drinks so they don't spoil that would really help.
