Trash. I got a jelly filled and an angel cream filled and they were stale, dried out, and barely a squirt of jelly or cream. First and last time at this joint. Do yourself a favor and go to the Donut Hole instead. Or even just Dunkin Donuts. read more

Although I felt like they were expensive, the specialty donuts were yummy. The donut holes were also, good. I feel like the regular, yeast ones that we got were a bit stale. It's hard to find good bakery these days. Service was good, no issues. Plan on spending a lot, I'd highly recommend sticking to getting the specialty donuts like the cinnamon roll, fritters and twist. read more

Apple fritter was perfect. Moist with huge pieces of apple. Excellent bakery. Blueberry donut was yummy Staff is friendly and treated us nice. Repeat for our family. Love this place. Great parking too and good vibes with reasonable prices!! read more

Stopped there on a whim 5:00 pm on a Sunday . We had coffee and a big twisted donut . Blown away ! Coffee was smooth, strong enough nice and hot, not lava and the donut was absolutely delicious. Did not expect the weight of it and the taste was sweet and just made fresh. I have not had a donut this good in a long time . Who knew? Little donut shop on the side of the road ! Service was very good. Made sure our coffee was as we liked it. read more

I'll never going back! Premium price for a stale jelly donut with hardly any jelly in the donut.

First and foremost fellow Tyndall Parkway creatures - this place opens at 5 AM, not 7 AM. Took a picture of the hours and submitted it to Yelp but they remain unchanged on the listing. So plenty of time to get a dozen for the office or fam before people get on the road. Nice older lady runs the place alone. She never takes a day off. The bacon, maple donut or bear claw is a fan favorite. The coffee is deli swill in the blue greek coffee cups that make me happy as a street cart vendor fan. It will disappoint any airman/sailor who believes in Folgers measurements being doubled at the drip coffee station at work or loyal Starbucks snob. Walk up and she takes cash and cards. There is no inside. Takeout only from window. The real test of any donut is if it is still good after a couple hours or the next day. I can confirm even the following morning, the donuts are brilliant. The feeling is swift, efficient service and no nonsense old school donuts for everyone in a clean spot with plenty of parking. read more

This used to be a must stop on our way to Mexico Beach, but the last three or four times I have stopped my donuts were stale. What happened Leon? Pass it on by. It's expensive and not eatable. read more

One of worse donut shops I've been to and I've been to many as a delivery driver. Prime prices for less than grocery store deli donuts.

Theae were no doubt the worst donuts I've ever eaten. Dont go here! They are greasy and have no flavor!

My first time. The outer edge of my cinnamon sugar donut was tasty. The inner part tasted uncooked. My friend tried one and said it was oily. The portion size is large. read more

Leon's Donuts - Leon's Donuts Callaway, FL near the bridge close to Tyndall AFB. - Donuts Near Me - Panama City, Florida

Priced high for the quality of the food. The apple fritter was a bit dry. Similar to something you could find at a convenience store case.

If I could give zero stars I would! Worst Donuts EVER- we stopped while on our way to shop on a Saturday around 9am. The donuts were stale and nasty. read more

First, let me preface by saying, I am visiting in mid-January. This is a tough time for vacation spots. That said, I would have given it four stars, despite some of the donuts being less than fresh. Coffee, good and hot from the pot. This is your traditional pot, probably from big grounds. Coffee $1.90 for a big 20 oz. styrofoam cup. Got a dozen assorted. These were mostly at least okay. My coconut covered cake was good. The sons ate theirs quickly, but they'd eat any sweet that way. I might have gone 4 stars, UNTIL I ate a donut hole. Guaranteed to be tasty, right? First taste, heavy and lotsa icing. Not too bad, right? Naw, then the double heavy and THEN, the staleness and worse bad oil flavor hit me. Like rancid oil. Not sure how long that particular donut hole had been there, maybe since October? Anyway, one little donut hole shouldn't ruin the experience. Also, the Apple fritter was 4.50, it was average. It did have good sized apple pieces in there. But it was quite a few days old. I'm sure in tourist season all of this stuff would be better. Nice lady working. read more

Extremely small, unremarkable donuts. Monday morning and they were stale - obviously left over. A ridiculously overpriced apple fritter ($4.50) got tossed in the trash can 'cuz it tasted nasty and was hard as a rock. And the lady wasn't very friendly, either. She pulled the 6 donuts we requested then put 5 in the bag. Discovered this 2 blocks away and was too disgusted by what we bought to go back for nasty number 6. When you see this small roadside stand, keep driving. read more

This hasn't been open in the past when I have been here. This was very bad. The donuts somehow were greasy and dry all at once. We didn't even eat more than one bite. read more

I enjoyed the maple bacon donut and the friendly chat with the cashier. This place is deck service so there's no being crammed together indoors. There's a small table. read more

I visited Leon's Donuts in Panama City, Florida, and tried their apple fritter and glazed twist. Both were very good. The fritter is less doughy, but with more apples and flavor. The twist was also tasty, but less substantial than others. The "braids" we're untwisting even while holding for the photo. Check them out when in Panama City or driving through to Mexico Beach or Port St. Joe's. . read more

Just moved to the area. My family and I are Donut fans and try to find the best in the area when we re-located. Leon's was cute little walk up shop. A little overpriced (in my opinion for a half dozen). Donuts were ok. They were too dry for us. For the price you pay I was expecting something a little more light and fluffy. Would still recommend if you are in need of quick donuts. Service was fast and efficient. read more

Have gotten fresher donuts at a convenience store. Fact is, TastyKake prepackaged donuts are better. Seriously.

July 4, 5 2023 Because the online photos of their cream sticks/ "Long Johns" looked good, we were anxious to try them. Despite their online claim to be open 5 a.m. to 2 p.m., we were there at 5:30 a.m. on the 4th (because it didn't say online that they would be closed; tourist town on a major holiday... great time to do business, right?) and they were closed. We returned the next day at 6 a.m. and they were closed again. Judging by the other, CURRENT reviews, it was a blessing in disguise. Did the ownership change hands in the last few years? Meanwhile, while you're in P.City, hit Flyby Coffee (right by Leon's) & Dan-D-Doughnuts. Really good "eclair"/ "Long John"/ cream stick- type thing! read more

Worst doughnuts I have ever had. How do you mess up a glazed doughnut? Cook it in old grease. We tried several doughnut & they were awful. Shame on you Leon's doughnut. You should know better. Awful....gross.... Disgusting. read more

I love a good doughnut, so I was pretty excited when I pulled up. My son and I each got a maple bar. Mine was plain, and his had bacon. When the cashier asked for $7.00 I thought I misunderstood. Seven dollars, for two regular doughnuts?? They were good. Better then a grocery stores, but by no means a gourmet, high-end doughnut. Sadly I won't be back, it was a good, moist doughnut, but not worth the high price. read more

we tried this place for the 2nd time and again donuts were not good- we think they gave us old donuts because they were dried, stale and gross. We like supporting local business but we are not going to punish ourselves in the process. We won't be going back, so sad! read more

Im going to have to agree with the other reviewers. These donuts are hard as a rock and very greasy. Seemed like the donuts are over fried and very small as well. read more

$12 on 4 donuts... they taste like they've been sitting there for days. Not worth the drive or money.

I tried Leon's Donuts for the first time in several years. At one time they were some of the best. No longer. The donuts were stale, dry and inedible. We had ordered filled donuts and the amount of fillings were barely existent. I'd sooner but from a grocery store. It's a shame that a once great place to buy donuts has been reduced to this low quality. read more

The donuts were very chewy and had a oily stale taste to them I tried again a few days later with the same result I would not I donuts here again. read more

Heard they used to be really great but now it's definitely quantity over quality. These donuts are overly greasy sometimes overcooked and the frosting on top is as cheap tasting as you can get. Even from the customer service standpoint read more

Selling day old donuts as fresh. Sickening. Our family owned and operated a bakery year ago so I am very familiar with the donut business. I was excited to help a local business, however they sold us many stale donuts as if they were fresh. Steer clear of this place. Seriously read more

My family used to frequent this donut spot regular on our vacations and really enjoyed their donuts, but sad to say things here have changed drastically. We visited the Friday before the 4th of July around 8am. So we thought the donuts would be fresh and up to their normal standard. This was not the case. Donuts were greasy and stale. We got a mixed dozen and at least 4 whole donuts just ended up straight in the trash. The filled donuts barely had a quarter sized dollop of filling the middle and a dozen donuts was NOT cheap. I'm sad to see this place go downhill, but we will likely not be stopping here again on any future trips. read more

Just trying to offset the negative reviews. Also, that donut with bacon on it - worth the drive.

This is probably the worst donut I've ever tried. Ordered a dozen glaze. They were ice cold and had very little to no icing on them.

My friends and I decided to do a PCB Donut Crawl one Saturday morning. The first place didn't have any donuts left at 10am. :( The second place Leon's did! They don't have a million crazy creations, but what they do have is reeeeeeeally good. Everyone's eyes went straight to the beautifully glazed filled donuts and the maple bacon donuts. I opted for a yellow cake donut that was glazed. I normally don't like cake donuts, but let me tell you, I was blown away. The cake donuts they serve are soooo moist and not dense like I was expecting. Everyone definitely left satisfied. The staff that helped us were really kind and patient. If you are around this area, stop in! read more

Donuts weren't too bad. However, it tasted as though they were made in old or dirty oil. If they cleaned or changed the oil once in awhile these would be great read more

Freshest Breakfast Pastries in the Area! Never have I ever in Florida found a donut as good. I like yeast donuts and that is what the have, also they have the inferior cake donuts which were also good. The price is right. Keep them in business. read more

Disclaimer: I can't eat the donuts here BUT we stop here to take donuts to my husbands job and I've picked up a dozen on occasion to take to the baristas at my usual Starbucks. They have a good selection and they always look and smell super fresh and delicious. Everyone is happy when we bring them Leon's donuts. The prices are very reasonable. You have to figure out how to get in and out of their parking lot due to the median on the road by it's not that difficult. Just be careful! read more

Absolutely the beat donuts we have ever had. We had the twist, glazed, filled! I wish I would have gotten the donut holes!

I loved this donut shop so much, all the donuts are really made with love and the details are just right. got a chocolate frosted with sprinkles and the donut was also glazed which is just amazing. the classic donuts done absolutely right read more

Leon's Donuts - chocolate sprinkles glazed donut - Donuts Near Me - Panama City, Florida

This is not the Leon's we remember as kids. We bought a dozen glazed, 12 donut holes, and 3 frosted with sprinkles. Every single one went in the trash. They were so greasy! Inedible is putting it lightly. They smelled so old, stale, and the oil smell is something I can't get past. $17+ worth of product in the trash. Don't bother going. read more

I tried to give this place a 3er chance... first time I went, some donuts were more than a day old, and they were ALL dried and super greasy, just gross. Second time, same. THIRD TIME I had to spit the first bit I took... it tasted like they were fried in a year's old oil where they previously fried onions and salty food. Just unedible. NEVER spending another dime there. Total scam. And SO GROSS. read more
