The best hot jam doughnut that's a must try on your next trip to the QV Market. Whether you are…read morelooking for a quick snack between meals or just want to treat yourself, no trip to the area is complete without stopping by the iconic ADK. The food is seems so simple yet perfectly executed - donut with jam filling inside. Don't have a big appetite? Don't worry, despite the signs prominently staring a number and a price (e.g. 10 for X), you can buy as few or as many as you want. I wouldn't normally point this out but out of the 30+ people ahead of us, pretty sure we were the only ones to ask and get a different number. Despite the often long lines, the service is impeccable and they move close to the speed of light. It's a well oiled machine. The craziest part? This place has been around since the 50s and the recipe is mostly unchanged. The ambience is era appropriate, too. It's an old bus that provides them shelter and mobility while being the perfect photo opportunity. They had swag, too, if you are into that. Overall, you'll miss out if you don't stop at ADK on your next trip to the area.

We visited on a Saturday afternoon and the line was super long. We waited about 30-40min. The…read moredoughnut dough itself was good, but i think it's hard to screw up hot/fresh doughnut. The highlight for me was the mixed berry sauce in the center it was wonderfully raspberry and the texture of the sauce wasn't clumpy/gelled-up, so that was good. Personally I think it could use a bit of salt on the dough to make it better.

These are for sure some of the best donuts in Melbourne. We had the plum glazed raised donut,…read moresnickerdoodle cake donut, and some honey & sea salt crullers. The crullers were absolutely fantastic. The hit of salt was the perfect pairing with the sweet honey glaze. I honestly could have just gotten a few of these and been happy. But the others were great as well! The plum was really nice with some tartness to balance out the sweetness, and the texture of the cake donut was great. Also, the service was wonderful! Even though it was packed inside, the wait staff got us everything we needed. Definitely hit up Short Stop if you're a donut lover!

THE BEST FREAKING DOUGHNUT & COFFEE SHOP EVER! Coming from…read moreCanada on a WHV and not knowing what to expect with Australian coffee let alone Melbourne! I had experienced a few different spots starting with gloria jeans and then getting into more of the local shops. I would consistently go to this place before work with one of my girlfriends! We loved getting the coffee, it was always made to perfection - no spills, always creamy, perfect consistency, great temperature and quick service! I'm not kidding, the girls that run this place are amazing! The chefs are incredible bakers and pastry chefs that make doughnuts fresh to order, a lot of times the doughnut is still a little warm and so enjoyable! We are obsessed with the maple brown sugar doughnut, the New Orleans espresso crueller, matcha cheesecake, and more! I can't want to come back to visit and this will be one of my first stops! An absolute must!

This is a 24-hour doughnut shop in Springvale with lots of NZ-style pies and baked goods. I'd heard…read morethat they had a pretty good range of vegan doughnuts, and we were in the area anyway, so we went down to check it out. I was pretty shocked to find a massive queue when we got there (on a Saturday around 3pm). Who ever expected to find such a long queue at a 24-hour doughnut shop way down in Springvale?! Luckily, the line moved fast and soon we got our orders in less than fifteen minutes. We opted for the $15 box of 6 doughnuts, trying each of their five vegan options. This included original glazed, cinnamon, Oreo, hot jam, and peanut butter and jelly (my favorite). My boyfriend also got a non-vegan Nutella doughnut. The vegan doughnuts tasted exactly like non-vegan doughnuts -- it was impossible to tell they didn't have dairy or egg in them. They also do coffee and savoury pies. Of the savoury pies, they have one vegan option -- a pumpkin and curry. I didn't try it but it looked nice. Everything was very tasty and enjoyable. It's not as good as, say, Doughnut Time, but then again you're also getting 6 doughnuts for the price of 2.5 Doughnut Time doughnuts! Basically, I wouldn't say rush all the way down here if you live in the northern suburbs or something -- these doughnuts are not THAT amazing -- but for their wide range of vegan options, they certainly get my vote (and my money!) And any south-side vegans or people with dairy/egg allergies should definitely check this place out!

I really appreciate that the staff are super friendly. When it came my turn to order, the lady behind the counter came out and explained every single available flavor and made recommendations. She suggested to order more than 4 donuts as the price becomes cheaper per unit (about $18 AUD for a half dozen). The donuts had interesting flavors and looked promising. The banana pudding and chocolate glazes were our favorites. However I do wish that they were warmer and softer.

The sign said I had about a 30 minute wait. I was getting pretty hungry after a long day of sightseeing and catching the game. So with that thirty minutes to kill now I wanted to find something quick, right near the station. I walked outside, crossed Flinders Street and there it was, exactly what I was looking for. This place, Spanish Doughnuts is a little hole in the wall for sure but with a truly unique food item that blew my mind. Churros! Being from California, I have had many churros. They are everywhere. The movie theater, Disneyland, Sporting events, concerts, Costco! They are all delicious, a fried dough rolled in cinnamon. Pretty basic stuff, all the same everywhere. However this place had a variety flavors! You can get them filled with jams, custard, chocolate, peanut butter. Truly awesome. Some even come dipped in chocolate shell, like a candy bar with a churro inside. I chose the churro with peanut butter in the middle, rolled in a chocolate coat. It was fantastic. They also have a selection of coffee and sodas to choose from. You can make a little combo meal where you get a churro and a coffee and save a buck. Unfortunately for me, I'm now thousands of miles away from this place. I have actually bought churros here and tried to fill them with heated peanut butter but I have to replicate the one I had that night in Melbourne.......
