    Yummy! I got to try the chocolate matcha, raspberry lemon, and maple donut holes. Yes I ate all 6…read morein one sitting isn't that just equivalent to one donut? Calories don't count when donuts are in the equation

    I'd admired this place on Instagram forever and finally found myself in Salem, so this was our…read morefirst stop. It's on a cute street in the heart of downtown, just blocks from the riverfront. It's a small space with a couple of indoor tables and a few tables on the sidewalk. We were greeted warmly and given time to look over the menu and space to ask questions. We went with a dozen, 2 of each flavor, and a couple of drinks. We all really enjoyed the cinnamon sugar, which was served piping hot. My husband loved the maple. My favorites were the lemon poppyseed and the chocolate, which tasted a lot like a brownie. My daughter's favorite was the s'mores, you could definitely taste the marshmallow in the glaze. It's astonishing that these are vegan and gluten free! They were better than I expected, better than a "regular" one. My daughter got their strawberry matcha and declared it better than any she had in Japan. It had strawberry puree on the bottom and was dusted with strawberry on top. We also tried their seasonal latte, which was good! This will be a must visit anytime we are remotely near Salem and we would love to see them open a spot in Portland! Just putting that into the universe.

    I stopped in a little after 11am on a weekday, and was the only person there. Service was very…read morefriendly and patient with my questions, as this was my first visit. The donuts are self-serve with trays and tongs. They had a wide variety available. I selected a original glazed, a pretty in pink (strawberry glazed), a chocolate and a pandan. I also ordered two K-dogs (Korean-style elevated corn dogs), and a classic pearl milk tea with the standard brown sugar boba. My order was ready in less than 10 minutes. My drink was a pretty standard boba drink. Good, but nothing special. The drinks are very customizable, with ice amount and sweetness level just two of the options. The K-dogs were really tasty. I got an Potato Dog (which is a corn dog covered with crispy potato cubes and served with a fry sauce). The other dog I chose was the Gochujang Dog: their standard corn dog with Gochujang sauce. You have the option of having your K-Dog stuffed with mozzarella, a hotdog, or half hotdog and half mozzarella. I did half dog, half mozzarella on both. The cheese made the K-Dogs like huge fried mozzarella sticks. I enjoyed both, they were huge, and I ended up splitting them with a friend. I had both sauces on the side as my order was to go, and both complimented the rich cheese/dogs nicely. The fry sauce was rich and tangy, and the Gochujang a little spicy and a little sweet. The donuts were good too. This was my first time trying mochi donuts. The mochi flour gives the donuts a firmer and denser texture than your standard donut. I love other mochi desserts, but here I missed the lightness and melt-in-your-mouth quality of regular donuts. That is more of a personal preference, but something to be aware of, especially if you are sensitive to textures in food. It seemed like most of the individual flavors of each donut came more from the toppings rather than the donut itself. That isn't unusual with donuts of any kind. The service was awesome, and I was intrigued most by the K-Dogs. I will be back when I am in the mood for an different kind of treat.

    Sooo good !! Not another place like this in Salem. Definitely worth a try. Get the classic Korean…read moredog and the ube donut

She was very quick to respond to my emails and she emailed me throughout the planning process so I knew I was on her mind. She is very fair with her prices and she was very professional. She offers a wide range of flavors and designs. I am so impressed by her and her donuts. I will recommend Willamette Minis to all of my friends and family for any and every event. Thank you, Andrea. We really appreciate everything you did for us and we really enjoyed you and your donuts!

My daughter fell in love with their mini sprinkled donuts and they were really excited to see that they had vegan donuts, as we've been on a search for local vegan donuts for 2 years! That day they were completely sold out of vegan minis though, so the following weekend we all went back hoping to get some vegan ones. They weren't parked at river front any more so I tracked their number down threw yelp. Andrea who's the owner of the business was super friendly and even offered to deliver me 6 mini vegan donuts to wherever I was!!! Not only vegan donuts but delivered right to me! How awesome is that!?!? We met up later that day and her donuts were amazing!! This has to be the coolest little traveling donut shop ever!! I highly recommend their donuts whether your vegn or not! Super yummy and such sweet people!
