OMG I whipped in this parking lot when I saw it was ONLY 4 ppl in line bc usually it's always a line almost to the highway. My cousin always raves about how they sell out every weekend! Before I could hop out my SUV 4 ppl Had pulled up and ran in Lime lol. The line moves fast! I told them I was a first timer and wasn't sure. The owners were very sweet and helped me decide based on my preferences. I decided to get "Joy's Mix which an assortment of the fan favorites or best sellers! I also got a 1/2 dozen of ones I think my family and I would like. When I tell u these donuts melted in my mouth!! The donut is light, fresh, and moist! I just tried the FROSTED CRACK and it lives up to its name! I also tried a piece of the strawberry dip with sprinkles, Maple Bacon, Glazed, and Cinnabun!! They just keep getting better. Now I see why ppl are lined up before they open every weekend!! I didn't even want the Maple Bacon but decided to keep it in the assortment and try it! It is my fav now!!

Woke up early on a Saturday just to snag a dozen donuts! It's worth it! These are the best donuts I've had in central Florida- dare I say even better than the beloved Donut King. Customer service was great and even with a line we were in and out so efficiently! Our favorite donuts were the pumpkin cream cheese, blueberry dip, and fruity pebbles. Least favorite was the funky monkey (chocolate icing with banana cream), but it's just not a flavor combo I am often a fan of. Make sure you get there early, but no need to stress. By 8:45 they started selling out of some varieties. There is also a pre order option as well. I will definitely be back and can't wait to see what fun seasonal donuts are next!!

Random dozen!

Decided to pull over today after seeing some pink on the side of the road. So happy i did! As a heavy donut consumer I wasn't sure which one to pick... they had some pumpkin glaze just in time for October! !!! Um yum! It was late in the afternoon, so I asked which ones they had left. (My very first time checking out this business). They said a mixed dozen. So what the heck, i got a random dozen (13$) and am i pleased i did! !! They even gave me a couple extra, probably because it was the end of their day. You tend to just want a massive donut but these are perfectly sized, so you can have two and still feel okay. So reasonably priced and I believe the community should definitely support small business such as these. It seems they have seasonal donuts so I guess I'll need to stop by again! They were so polite and quick. Would recommend this small business to everyone in the area. A beautiful little treat! !!

This donut truck is a cute concept. We stopped after getting gas across the street. We had their blueberry and the vanilla crack donuts. The owner was friendly and took the time to explain what their top flavors were. The donut was super fresh. I'm sure she had just made them that morning. They were light and fluffy cake type donuts. The blueberry flavor was great and the icing made it special.

Open Sat and Sun at 8 am. Get there early for the best ones!

Great family run business with unique flavors. Get there early if you want the best selection, but if you haven't been you have to go. Blueberry - lemon was awesome and so was the one with bacon. Seriously bacon on a donut, how can you go wrong!

These were ridiculous. This place is a real gem.
Chelsea S.

This place is so cool. There's usually a line but it moves fast. They also have free coffee while you wait. I suggest going earlier, otherwise they'll be out of a few of the selections. There are over 20 different donuts to choose from, your moth will water just staring at the menu. The blueberry donuts and the frosted crack donuts are a must. You will not regret stopping by here!

I can't stop thinking about these donuts! I never really liked cake donuts, but after trying these I fell in love. The maple bacon and frosted crack are definitely my favorites, followed by the blueberry glazed and their salted caramel. I love how creative Shane and Jen are with their donuts, always keeping us on our toes for those seasonal flavors. Waking up at 7 am on a Saturday or Sunday, and driving 45 minutes to Mount Dora doesn't sound ideal under normal circumstances, but seeing that pink food truck on the corner of 441 and wolf branch rd makes it worth the trip!

The best cake donuts ever!! We got up at 5:30am so we could meet up with a friend and make it to the food truck by the time they opened at 8am. My boyfriend Tom was so excited about these donuts that he decided to order one of every single flavor they had available, which was a whopping 22 donuts! In the end we didn't even get to try all of them, we were too stuffed! But we did get to try a good number and the maple bacon was amazing! It's one of their most popular donuts and I can really see why. In general their donuts are fantastic, they are cake donuts but they don't have that really dense texture that I've come to expect from cake donuts, they were light and fluffy and perfect! If joy donuts was a little closer to where I lived I would definitely be going back frequently.

I had heard of these famous donuts in Mt Dora and while on a weekend trip, decided to splurge and see what the hype was about. These were worth the hype! I've tried a lot of the donut places in Central Fl and I do think Joy beats all of them. The flavors were great, the donuts themselves were moist and delicious. They are definitely worth checking out. I pre-ordered so pick up was easy. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that I ordered a variety of their flavors and I wish they would have included a "cheat sheet" or some explanation - some of the flavors I picked did not appear to be in the box and so I wasn't quite sure what everything was. That being said, I was not disappointed with anything in that beautiful pink box - everything taste-wise was a 10/10.

Arranged, asorted donuts

Delicious, handcrafted donuts with fun accents and flourishes. We ordered donuts for a party my wife was having. Turned out even better than expected and they were a hit! If you want to get hooked, try "Frosted Crack", one of their classics.

Anne S.

Wow...wow...WOW! These donuts are amazing! And the owner has a peanut allergy so all is peanut free! This was great news for us as my son has a peanut allergy! I tried the frosted crack, cookie butter and blueberry glazed and they were all delicious! They open at 8 and go until sold out! We were there at 9:15am and they had sold out of several flavors already! And they have free Starbucks coffee to go with the donuts! They are cake donuts that are super moist! (Can't day I use that word often!) Worth a try!

I'm not a big donut fun but my husband is. There are times though that you crave for it. I always pass by this donut truck each time we go to mass in Orlando, and I got really curious about it because I always see people in line..... and so the curious George in me went and try my first 6. I don't want to buy a dozen and got wasted in case I don't like it. Well.... after two weeks I preordered my 1st dozen and will be coming back for more. They have the best blueberry glaze donut I have ever tasted. Not too sweet for my liking as I don't have a sweet tooth. If you ever pass by 441 they are on the left going to Apopka and you'll never miss this cute pink truck.

Awesome donuts you will not be disappointed. I am a donut queen and I highly recommend this fabulous little find in Mount Dora.

I ran inside and was able to find it quickly between the booth. Customer service was great. I was treated with a sample right away. I chose the glazed ones with zswws shes‍‍ the toasted coconut for my husband. It's 12 mini donuts for $3.50-$4.50. The donuts itself are sooo delicious. Perfect bite size and they melt in your mouth. They really are a knock out. They s them super fresh and have a few different varieties. Great great place. We will be back before Christmas to try the egg nog ones.aw

There were lots of interesting flavor combinations to try. We finally decided on the Toasted Coconut. We ordered a dozen for $6.50. OMG. They were AMAZING. The donuts were "hot off the press" (you can actually see them frying them right in front of you) and covered with a creamy, sugary glaze and then sprinkled with toasted coconut. We gobbled them up quickly while they were still hot (the best way to eat a donut!). Besides offering a terrific product, everyone behind the counter was super friendly and very customer-focused. They really do a phenomenal job all around. They'll definitely be a regular stop on future visits to Renninger's.

We've found another great breakfast spot and it was worth the drive to Mount Dora. I heard about…read morethis place on the radio and decided to give it a try. They have all the breakfast items you can imagine and a whole bunch of lunch and dinner options as well. Their menu continues to expand. We, of course, went for breakfast and had our choice of eggs and bacon and grits and pancakes ... but what stood out for me was the biscuits and gravy and the SOS. If you don't know what SOS stands for, look it up... it's a great breakfast item. The SOS is not the same as the biscuits and sausage gravy because that is sausage gravy, the SOS has chipped beef in gravy and usually will come on toast, but I prefer it with the biscuits. I asked for my eggs over easy and they were just right. The side of grits comes in a small bowl which is a good portion for one person and the pancakes were humongous - a very good size for two pancakes and golden brown... I ended up sharing with my wife. We were very happy with the service that they gave us and one of the managers came around to see if everything was good or if we needed anything and we really appreciated that. This is a very down to earth place where it feels like home. It's a great place to bring the family, and we did see a lot of people with their kids, but, we also saw couples like myself and my wife sharing some good coffee or sweet tea and loving life. We are definitely coming back because I wanna try the teriyaki chicken plates and I'm very interested in the shrimp and scallops.

Like I said...perspective. Those in the know in Mt. Dora have been to Dora Cafe, a charming old-school cafe serving as much friendly service as yummy good. Mad respect for the sweet staff onsite, quick to smile and welcome you in while you wait just a few minutes to be served tasty food. Simple, good food - that's what's up here. Also, a very interesting variety of plates - simple breakfast combos, teriyaki, Cuban sandwiches, Shepard's Pie, gyros, and chicken livers! What?! Swear to God! Open from 6a-2p every day. Definitely get in on the breakfast combo - yummy hash browns and they even have sausage links AND patties! C'mon...now you're just showing off. I will absolutely be back...and I'm genuinely looking forward to it.
