My chocolate glazed donut was a little dry, but since this is the only donut place we've found here ... I'll take what I can get. I know it was a little late in the morning, but I still think it was a recipe issue and not a timing issue. I was also disappointed because either they'd run out of blueberry cake donuts or don't have them -- sadness! I guess there's just really no replacing Shipley's in my heart (stomach?). read more

Quality donuts, I especially liked the Apple Spice cake donut. Coffe was eh...service was double eh.

I have never had a better chocolate cake donut than the ones they sell at Lamar's. And I doubt I ever will. read more

We went on a Sunday- they seemed to have a full selection, just less- 1/4 of the cases were full. Great flavors- liked the cake donuts the best- pumpkin, sour cream (with a great tang and my fave) and raspberry filled- real raspberry not just raspberry flavor. Good coffee for a donut place. Nice area to eat in. They're sweet- BUT THEY ARE DONUTS! I'll go back for the sour cream for sure! read more

Here's the thing. Like AJ says, this place is all about the chocolate-cake donut. They are the Krispy Creme of chocolate cake donuts. If I do something stupid and need to apologize, a dozen chocolate cake donuts from Lamars are better than roses. Sure, I've tried their other donuts and they're good, but I'm telling you people, the chocolate cake donut is where it's at. Oh yeah, they also have coffee. read more

in the Sante Fe Arts District, this a great local spot. I was staying nearby while visiting town with some friends and it just made sense to grab a dozen which we ate over the course of our stay. On Saturday's they make a strawberry cake donut ;) read more

I always think i love donuts, but then I get a few and can only eat half of them because they are so sweet. I love the Raspberry Bismark donut at Lamars, it is so delicious. The filling is sweet and tart and the glaze is a yummy finish to the confection. The only donut I have had there that I didn't particularyly enjoy was the apple fritter. It looked like they took a Winchells apple fritter and ran over. They are by far my favorite donut shop. read more

This is my go to for Donuts since I moved to Denver. The other shops do not taste as fresh as these in my opinion. Staff is alert and ready to go. Getting my Homer on read more

Best donuts in town! Hometown KCMO pride . Voodoo's got nothing on this place. 100x better than Winchell's.

I had to check out Lamar's after a fanatical fan (my son-in-law) gave them a rave review. After trying the donuts from Voodoo Donuts in Denver (one of my food -B-list items) Lamar's would have tough competition for supremacy of my donut sweet tooth. I was floored, the donuts there were off the hook, I became an instant follower of this donut Mecca. The people that work there are so nice. They had run out of a couple of flavors that I was looking to scarf up and mentioning this they offered to fill some while I waited! What a concept, super customer service, I like... Go there you'll be happy you did, but go early for the best selection, remember they close at 1:00pm read more

Very slow service, not to mention they still have restrooms locked after the Governor has lifted restrictions. Clearly they're doing that out of sheer laziness and Lack of consideration for their customers. Won't come back. read more

If you want the real deal melt in your mouth donut euphoria go to LaMar's. The donuts speak for themselves here. They don't need the artificial food dye flashy designs like voodoo it's all about flavor here. Coffee is great too. The young girls working are very pleasant and patient with me since I literally want one of everything and can never decide. read more

Awesome donut shop, not pretentious, and the staff is super friendly!!! My children love it.

Kevin is by far the most unpleasant employee I have ever encountered. I will never go back because of the attitude that this person has towards his customers. It is a disgrace. read more

Stopped in for a Bavarian cream donut and had a nice chat with Angelo! The donuts are great so far but if I have more than 3, I'll get a sugar headache!! Bavarian cream, delicious. Old fashioned, delicious. Orange cake donut, unique and delicious. Felt good trading $ for sweets at this establishment. Thank, Angelo!! read more

We came here last year but I forgot to review at the time. I still remember how amazing they were! The sugar ones are incredible and the original chocolate are a blessing. And they sell milk. Praise God! read more

I love La Mars Donuts. They are so good! I like the maple iced, chocolate iced, devils food glazed, and more! These are some of the best donuts I've ever had! I've been here 3 times and all the times I've been impressed. They also make certain donuts if you ask. read more

Ah... donuts. They tempt us so. However Lamar's is not a place to fulfill one's craving. Their selection is not tremendously interesting or enticing. Get your donuts at Safeway. A cheap and a better selection. read more

Great donuts, but don't count on them ever delivering them on time (or even remembering your order, for that matter). This is the third time now that I personally have experienced an issue with delivery, and I'm told by others at my job that they've had the exact same experience. I was supposed to have donuts delivered at 8:15 AM, and when I called at 9 AM asking where the delivery was, they couldn't even find my order form. I heard them in the background saying, "I can't find her order anywhere" and thumbing through papers (which strikes me as odd, that in 2015 they literally have a pile of papers with the orders). The woman who I spoke to ended up personally delivering the donuts (which is the only positive thing from this experience) and they didn't get here until a little after 10 AM (2 hours after we were supposed to have them, and a whole 45 minutes after the woman assured me she was "leaving immediately to personally deliver them", when it's a 15 minute drive at the most). I was told that I'd be receiving a phone call later in the day from the manager in order to refund the money that was spent on these donuts. I waited around all day, and I finally called to follow up at 3:30, and what a surprise, they're now closed. So not only did they totally screw up our order, but they didn't even follow through with their offer to fix the mistake. TL; DR: Don't order donuts from LaMar's if you actually want to have them when you say you do. read more

I don't like donuts but stopped in because I had to go to the bathroom and my husband likes donuts so I thought I'd buy him one since we were from out of town and I didn't want to use their restroom without being a customer.... they had seasonal pumpkin donuts for sampling.... I'm a hit or miss with pumpkin stuff, I either hate it or love it. These pumpkin donuts were DANK! They had such great flavor, moist, like a pound cake consistency. Wow! Andddd when I told her it was my first time what would she recommend, I went with her suggestion, paid, gabe me the bag and when I got to the car there were 4 donuts inside! She gave me 2 for free to try! Sooooo nice! read more

Very disappointing donuts. It was my first time buying donuts in about 10 years. Had a craving, so got 4-5 plain glazed donuts, and I was disappointed, because it tasted like donuts I've had from grocery stores that nobody eats at the office. Had a few bites and trashed the rest. They were pricy too for what they were. Nice paper bag though! read more

This establishment does not respect first responders. Plain and simple. Those whose job it is to save a life at a moment's notice when called are not respected at this eatery. read more

Great donuts! Stopped here one morning during my vacation in Denver and my apple fritter was a perfect morning pick-me-up! I didn't get to try coffee or anything, so I can't speak to the drinks. read more

The first time I tried LaMar's I ate six of them. No other donut has ever done that to me. Seventeen years later, this is still the best donut shop in Colorado. My favorites are: old fashioned sour cream, chocolate Ray's original, apple fritter, and the weekly specials in banana or orange. Bring back the chocolate iced cake donut with real M&M's! read more

Fresh donuts, good coffee, free parking. Lamar's is quickly becoming my go-to place for donuts.

Went in around 10:00AM on a Saturday. I expected to walk in to find empty donut racks, but they still had a great variety of regular and specialty donuts. Tried 6 donuts, fell in love with 6 donuts. Best donuts I've had in town, hands down. I'd choose LaMar's over the likes of Voodoo, City Donuts, etc. Let's not forget the coffee.. fantastic as well. You can't go wrong with their iced coffee. Tell your mom, dad, brother, sister - LaMar's has the best donuts in town. read more

So I came here for the first time a few weeks ago and was fully prepared to write a 4-star review for Lamar's until we came back today. It's 10 A.M. on a Saturday and we walk in and Lamar's is literally cleaned out of donuts. One rack of chocolate glaze and sugar are all they have and cases of empty racks. We ask them if they have any more they are making and told quite bluntly, "No. This is all we have." Really, Lamar's? You're kidding, right? It's Saturday morning and you aren't making ANY more donuts? I mean you ARE a donut business are you not? Apparently not. We walked out and drove to a nearby Winchell's since Lamar's is obviously having a going-out-of-business sale. At least they were FULLY loaded with fresh baked donuts and a helluva better selection. Should change their name to LAME-ars. read more

I am a self proclaimed donut snob, and Lamar's (w)holey met and exceeded my expectations! Lamar's certainly "donut" deserve only 3.5 stars! I had a hot cinnamon glazed cake donut, and it seriously melted in my mouth! The staff was friendly and the facilities clean! For a warm, fresh, classic donut, Lamar's puts voodoo to shame! They've captured the essence of sweet simplicity with their delectable (w)holy creations, and "Donut" delay, come get a donut at Lamar's today! read more

Been here twice so far and the doughnuts are fantastic and so is the coffee. Staff are always polite and the prices are very reasonable. Cheaper than Voodoo doughnuts and better than Dunkin' or Krispy Kreme. Definitely worth trying if you are in the mood for some top notch doughnuts. read more

Good donuts, excellent and friendly service. Denver has a serious shortage of donut shops, so I am happy to make a short drive out of downtown to Lamar's. read more

I am from Santa Fe NM, but my sister lives in castlerock, Colorado and we came here and had the best apple fritters in the world ! Close second , is michaels kitchen in taos NM. These fritters are made perfectly. A crispness on the outside and perfectly cooked on the inside. I have had othe apple fritters that were doughy on the inside so this was awesome to eat one done so well!!!!! I can't wait for my next trip to Colorado!!!! Yum!! read more

If you're ever in need of a donut covered in crushed Snickers bars, go to Lamar's! I stopped in this location to pick up wildly delicious and less than healthy snacks for a customer event. We were able to pick up a couple dozen delicious donuts, a gallon of coffee with cream and sweeteners, all with a smile for a sweet price. This is a convenient location that's only downfall is the super busy intersection leading to honks if you try to turn into the parking lot off 6th Ave. read more

Added a star because I found out that they will customize my jelly donut so that it is PERFECT for my tastes! Who could ask for more???

This is a great donut/coffee shop in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. I stopped in to grab some donuts for a meeting and the staff was quick, helpful, and friendly! There was a huge variety of donuts ranging from cake and sourdough to jelly and cream filled. They have so many different types it was hard to choose just the 12 I needed. There is also seating if you want to stay a while to read or work. To top of off they had one of my favorite things in the world-samples! I got to try their chai tea latte(delicious) and a cinnamon-sugar cake donut! read more

Great selection but can only one! I love the vanilla icing filled long john - oh wow! Hubby had an old fashioned. Wanted to eat more but so rich we couldn't lol. Good thing the closest shop is a ten minute drive. read more

Swung in for a quick sugar fix and coffee buzz and got exactly what I needed! Great service and friendly people. Tasty Doughnuts and good coffee! I recommend this to anyone looking for that morning sugar fix! read more

I needed some doughnuts for hungry clients and Lamar's was in close proximity. The service was friendly and pastries quite tasty. The bill seemed a bit high, though. In all, this was a good experience and I'll be sure to return when the need arises. read more

I love Lamar's cake donuts with chocolate icing and peanuts. They're close to perfect. The donut has a slight crust that I absolutely love. I brought a mixed dozen to work last week and even the most health conscious of colleagues tore into them. read more

Good donuts. Reasonable price. 3 stars because they run out of choices too quickly.

This is my favorite donut shop. The help is always friendly, helpful, and timely....oh, and the donuts are awesome too!
