Great donuts. It is a must stop every time we come to Kits. We prefer the basic sprinkle donut, but often try the specialty recipes. The sprinkle is the best though. Not the best day old, but fresh... mmmmmmmmm read more

One of the better donut options in town. Unfortunately, but typically, when asked what fat they use for frying, the staff were clueless. Pretty sure I know, but they should at least be able to confirm. It's not ONLY about the taste for me. read more

I got the salted caramel old fashioned donut and it was disappointing. The donut was over fried and dry, despite the salted caramel glaze. Next time I will try something else. read more

Lucky's Doughnuts - Donuts Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

I'm a big fan of this location. Everything is spot on, from the donuts to employees, and just the overall vibe of the space! The pistachio ring, triple chocolate, and cruller are my faves but it doesn't stop me from trying their wide selection and sometimes limited edition donuts. I'm not a fan of coffee so can't speak to it. All in all, I recommend stopping by this place if you're ever in Kits! read more

TL;DR Disappointing donuts I was excited to try this place out as recommended by a friend. However, I was disappointed by the quality, taste, and texture. They didn't seem fresh at all, didn't have that bounce that donuts usually have. The maple bacon was slightly burnt and had a rock hard texture. The old fashion regular glazed donut saved them. read more

Lucky's Doughnuts - Donuts Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Lucky's is a small doughnut spot that shares space with 49th Parallel Coffee. You can order both items at the register. Outside sign is for 49th Parallel, you have to go inside to see Lucky's. Good amount of seating outside and inside. Street parking, metered. Very busy before noon, even on a Friday. Line moved decently. Decent selection of doughnuts, they had my two favorites. Sprinkles - $3.50 - Doughy fluffy sprinkle doughnut, not the dense version. Ton of sprinkles on top! Vanilla Glazed Old Fashioned - $3 - Fried perfectly, great crisp and bite. Vanilla glaze was not super duper sweet. read more

I'm not quite use to a fancy place for a donut shop. Well, it's not too fancy, but they have an outdoor seating area for you to enjoy your coffee and donut. I don't know many places that does that for a donut shop. It's a pretty good location for people watching. For the donuts, they have a good variety of speciality donuts. They are more of the cake-like texture. There's a small wait line for the donuts, but the line goes pretty fast. I enjoyed my donut the Mulberry old fashion. Other donuts look a bit too sweet for me, so I went with the Mulberry. It has a good tartiness to it, but not to overwhelming. The raspberry cheesecake bismarck was surprising not too sweet with a little tangy flavor as well. Although I prefer my donuts to be more doughy, this place wasn't too bad. It's a cute spot overall. read more

We needed sustenance while waiting for Lululemon to open. This place was packed. They have 49th Parallel coffee to pair with your morning doughnuts/pastries. Pistachio Almond Croissant: Croissant with pistachio and almond paste that you can taste and see...not just a hint but a taste. 5/5 Salted Caramel Doughnut: Old fashioned doughnut dipped in caramel sprinkled with Maldona salt. Simple but perfect! 5/5 Cheese Danish: After tasting the awesome pistachio croissant and salted caramel doughnut, this was a bit of a letdown. Dip it in your cup of coffee to make it more interesting. 3/5 Morning Breakfast Brioche: Brioche with pepperoni and cheese inside. As much as I'd like to have sweets, I need something savory in the morning and this fits the bill. Light and fluffy brioche, smokey peppery salty pepperoni and soft creamy cheese. 4/5 Ham and Cheese Croissant: The basic. 3/5 We tried the latte and mocha which were hot and delicious. read more

Very delicious donuts. Its like a special treats here. I actually like their donuts more than say Timmy's and other places around town. Lucky's doughnuts is connected to or part of Parallel 49 coffee shop. Its great to grab a donut and at the same time sit and have a coffee. Some of their pretty good donuts (with some pretty interesting flavors too) like the creme brulee and matcha. But it really depends on the time you go as well. Their donut flavor changes and is different every time I go. Well there are some common ones that they have like cinnamon fritters or bacon maple etc. Pretty good donuts. read more

So I heard that there were 2 good doughnut spots in Vancouver and Lucky's was attached to my other must do of 49th Parallel Coffee. One thing I've learned about trying doughnuts... their shelf life is pretty miserably short. So when we got here, we made sure it was early as possible and on a busy day. Saturday morning was perfect for it. Stepping into the beautiful 49th Parallel Coffee, you're soon in front of this amazing case of glazed, frosted, and filled of doughnuts. Ever feel like you're stunned into silence because the choice is so vast... you might have a relapse here. We were confronted with at least 12 options and all looking so fresh. If you were like me and here for the possible one time, ask the staff for the most popular or flavourful or (insert your favourite flavour ever) to help you decide. They're quite nice here and ready to give you some help to decide. I do like how Lucky's have cake doughnuts in addition to the yeast ones. Im partial to the fluffy pillow like yeast ones that are just filled with something custardy or jammy. Rarely do I get a good one lately but Lucky's surprised me. I also loved how they had seasonal offerings that go with the freshest fruit available. This would keep me coming back to just see the newest flavours and tastes available. Just a note about taking it away... if you only order one, it's most likely they'll put it on a bag for you and if it has icing, it's going to be a big sticky mess. The Lemon meringue will be in a box but you may need to ask for your icing ones in a box too. The old fashioned in a bag should be fine. Blueberry lavender iced yeast doughnut with Earl Grey filling - Just visually this was the one that grabbed my attention! The amazing vivid deep violet was just so shiny and the doughnut was just puffed up as if stuffed with a lot of good stuff (spoiler... it was). Seeing how the sides of the doughnut was a nice deep caramel colour, I was just thinking this might be better than anything I've had in Toronto. Confirmed... I havent found a stuffed doughnut filled with so much rich custardy goodness like this. The doughnut was light and fluffy with the glaze adding just enough berry sweetness to lift it out of the plain boring bread flavour. The custard was just so luscious with just the right amount tea flavour. I didnt taste the citrus of a traditional earl grey but definitely tea. 4/5 Strawberry glazed old fashioned - I normally dont like cake doughnuts but this one is really good. With the right amount of crags to give that crispy crunchy edges and just bring more of the berry glaze into every nook and cranny, this was one of the better cake doughnuts I've had in a long time. Since we bought this early in the day, the cake interior was still moist and the exterior having the nice crunch... nothing dried out. The strawberry flavour was a true to the fruit flavour and not sweet. If anything, it had that right amount of tart and sweetness of the true fruit. Visually, the pink was cute too. 4/5 Go early in the day to avoid the stale or dried out doughnuts and you'll be well rewarded with one of the better doughnuts I've had in Canada. Definitely try their yeast stuffed flavours as this was so generous ... I havent seen one like this in Toronto. Lucky Vancouver! read more

Brown aesthetic, very casual and smells great (coffee scent!). I only purchased a Coffee Crueler doughnut during my reading stay here, but it was delicious. The service at the front counter was friendly and inviting. A few charging ports along the ends of the location with signs of "two-hour limits" for those who may stay for extended periods. Nothing particularly negative to note about my visit. A little bit small of a location but that's okay. read more

Been here before and maybe I was in a bad mood or something, cause I don't remember loving it - well today we loved it. One of the best donuts I've ever had (peanut butter and jelly) and good coffee too. The decor is very retro-like, or was it. Maybe it was just because of the turquoise colors!?!? I dunno. I do know that it was a great stop in for us today. read more

I ordered 6 of their yummy donuts and was not disappointed. I got the Chocolate Pistachio Ring, the Praline Bismark, the Apple Bacon Fritter, the Long John, the Peanut Butter and Jelly, and the Salted Caramel Old Fashioned. My favorites were the Chocolate Pistachio Ring (the cake donut and richness of the chocolate are excellent), the Apple Bacon Fritter (although it was a bit on the crispier side, the smokiness of the bacon pairs perfectly with the donut), and the Peanut Butter and Jelly (this reminded me so much of a pb&j sandwich - if you love those, you'll love this donut). Cute location and great staff as well. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area and craving some delicious donuts. read more

Okay, so we came into this oh-so-pretty donut/coffee shop but we didn't have any donuts! We showed ENORMOUS restraint, because the donut display looked AMAZING! OMG I could definitely do a lot of damage here, as the variety of donuts was so large and they all looked so good! And my kid and I were blown away by how lovely the set-up of this restaurant is, what with its atrium-like glass-enclosed "sun room" dining area (like a large indoor patio, filled with light and white tables and benches. Kind of a beach, Cape Cod whitewashed feel), and indoor cafe dining area. We were also impressed by the fact that they serve 49th Parallel coffee (my kid tells me that's an excellent brand, and she's a barista and knows these things. lol). But the true reason we came in here was because my kid had a wicked toothache (or lack thereof, really. She had just had her four wisdom teeth extracted and the novocaine was wearing off fast) and she needed to take some meds. We asked the guy behind the counter if we could get some water and he so kindly obliged. (The folks working behind the counter were all super nice, despite how busy the place was and how hard they were working, placing orders and ringing up orders and making coffees. We were here at lunch-time, after all). I'll update this review when I return for their donuts (which I hope will be soon!), but I wanted to review the ambience of the place and how nice the staff was to us - even though they were super busy and we didn't make a purchase. read more

I had a transcendent moment with the sourdough glazed doughnut here today. I prefer the cake-style, but was influenced by the person ahead of me who went the sourdough route, and how glad I was for making the detour. Soft but not too dry, with glaze that had slightly soaked in to the pastry and a subtle tang of the sourdough at the end--seriously, one of the best doughnuts I've ever had in my life. Yes, the pleasure will run you $3.50, but for a rare treat, it was absolutely worth it. The line seemed to move briskly, even on a busy Sunday afternoon. read more

Not sure what all the amazing reviews are all about! While our Matcha Bismark was definitely unique (I have never seen a green tea flavored one) and the flavor was good, texture-wise it definitely disappointed. It lacked that really soft, stretchy texture that other yeast doughnuts I've eaten have. In fact, it was pretty dry! We were trying to cut it in half to share and that was pretty hard. Maybe it wasn't fresh, but shouldn't that be the premium you pay for when going to a bakery? THE WAIT: The line went to their front door and it took just a few minutes to get to order. All the tables were crowded but after ordering, we were able to nab a small table for two by the window. The afternoon sun makes these spots really hot, though, so we moved to the couches by the front door. Not ideal with the lower coffee table, and the line basically right in front of you, but at least we were in the shade. THE COST: $5 for a coffee and doughnut. THE COFFEE: I got the cold brew, which was a bit acidic for my non-coffee-loving palate. A little bit of cream made it more digestible for me. read more

I love Luckys because every time I go in they have different artisan donuts available for purchase it's a mystery each time but there is always something for everyone my boyfriend loves lemon meringue pie and I found a lemon meringue donut for him this morning. I like more plain classic donut so when I saw the crème brûlée glazed and hardened on the outside I confirmed if there were there was cream in the middle of the guys said yes and it was a done deal. They served the lemon meringue donut in a box because of its sensitive meringue topping my crème brûlée donut came in a bag packaging due to its hardened exterior. Great outdoor patio that's covered in case it's raining. read more

MEH. Everytime I walk by this beautiful shop, I envision a luxurious and delectable donut experience. So I get sucked into going in. Firstly, I drink any cheapy coffee thrown at me. The one at this place is sour and underwhelming. This I will not drink. As for donut, the yeast dough has no deep fried taste to it. It straight up tastes like a bun from an asian bakery. If I wanted bun i would walk to st germain!! The creme brulee donut had a layer of flavorless sugar on it. No sexy burnt taste reminiscent of creme brulee. The custard within wasn't eggy. Tasted like vanilla pudding. The jelly donut was slight less offensive. But again, it just tastes like bread and jam. read more

Tried the plain glazed, sour cream and the pistachio doughnuts. Very light and fluffy. Decent sized too and not too sweet. I prefer the cakey kind of doughnuts so it was more of preference thing. read more

Such a cute spot, extremely busy, not particularly friendly staff. I'm a big donut lover, and we ordered four options, but wasn't impressed to be honest. The sour cream was interesting, but the others were dry and not particularly fresh. read more

Love this place for the yummy donuts. But the servers though...not very friendly, not very warm. Why?? Will return for donuts most likely but definitely not for the friendly chit chats with these grumpy disgruntled employees. read more

Some really exciting flavours (example: root beer donuts, peanut butter & jelly) and the donuts look unconventional in a good way. Unfortunately, the dough in the donuts are just meh. If I were to come back it would just be for the coffees & teas. But there's so much foot traffic through the door that it is hardly a relaxing place so I likely won't be back. Remember to pay for parking before you go in the store! Lucky's has a sign posted out front warning: "Did you Park in the Lot? If so, please know that a Parking Enforcement Officer likes to hide in his car in the parking lot. You will likely get a ticket if you don't pay at the parking station". read more

Maybe I was just un-Lucky. The salted caramel doughnut LOOKED amazing. I didn't finish it. Now this is a personal preference but I didn't care for the consistency of the doughnut, that being said if the flavour had been good, I could have overlooked the consistency. However, the doughnut tasted like old oil. I'm talkin' french-fry oil. The caramel on top was quite thick and bland. I tried to salvage it by dipping it into my coffee but all that happened was, I ruined my coffee. Don't worry Lucky, I'll try you again on another day and re-review. read more

YUM! Wandered down the street from our AirBnB lodging in the morning drizzle to enjoy the warm & cozy atmosphere at Lucky's Doughnuts & 49th Parallel Coffee. The baked goods did not disappoint - hubby had the passion fruit/mango filled bismarck, and I had the pistachio/almond croissant. Both were flavorful and perfect with our drinks. The dark hot cocoa was both dark and smooth - very chocolately!! The chai tea was warm and soothing with the merest hint of great spices. This was a terrific way to start our day in Vancouver, in the Kitsilano neighborhood. Fabulous!!! read more

Wow, I was quite surprised by how yummy the Lemon Poppyseed donut was. Not overly sweet, and no gross oily film like other donuts. It was fresh and had great texture. Quite a cute location with lots of outdoor seating for a nice sunny day. They serve lots of other donuts which I'll have to go back to try for sure probably with a side of coffee. read more

I've had a lot of donuts (doughnuts) in my time from all over. These are, dare I say, the absolute best. They've got a guy in the back pumping them out. Super fresh and delicious! I ordered a box of six to share. It was mainly because I wouldn't have been able to pick just one. Hahaha! Let's talk flavors. Lucky's has classic flavors and genius flavors. From an old-fashioned chocolate to apple bacon fritter to crème brûlée as well as matcha. There are loads of amazing flavor combinations that are sure to please even the most finicky of palates. The shop is in a great spot with plenty of room inside to move about whilst still maintaining that cozy feel that I love. There is a long table where you can sit and watch them work their magic indoors. You can also take your goods and sit, weather permitting, outdoors. read more

The 49th Parallel and Lucky's Doughnuts opened 3 days ago. The place was standing room only so it obviously meets a need for the neighbourhood. I ordered 4 doughnuts to go: a salted caramel, a creme brûlée. a root beer and a peanut butter and jelly. Creme Brûlée - my all-time favourite dessert translated into doughnut form! This could potentially be one of the foods that I would request for my last meal! Or not. The baker layered far too much sugar to be bruleed. When I eat creme brûlée in its original form I use the back of my spoon to crack the caramelized sugar. With this doughnut a mallet would be the more appropriate tool of choice. I had to daintily remove some 1/4" thick sugar shards from my mouth when I refused to jeopardize my dental work. The custard was righteous however. Salted Caramel - The salted caramel was applied to a nice fluffy cake doughnut. Was the salted caramel delicious? Yup, but i was applied with a heavy hand. At the end of the day I think it should be a doughnut with a candy topping not a candy with a doughnut base. Root Beer - just all kinds of wrong - blech! Peanut Butter and Jelly - They managed to get the proportions right for a really delicious doughnut. Bonus points for using a nice thick homemade tasting jelly that didn't squirt out of the doughnut when you bit or cut into it. For between $3-$4 a doughnut, they should be serving a veritable culinary masterpiece. The potential is there but there is still a lot of room for improvement. read more

For those not in the know, Lucky's Doughnuts is fully part of 49th Parallel Coffee Roasters, 1 business, 1 till, 2 reviews! They have a great selection of doughnuts, some of which aren't always available. Some are seasonal in nature and others just get gobbled up before they can be replaced. I could provide a long list of doughnuts to try but honestly there are so many. The staff are very friendly and they're very good at recognizing their regulars. read more

I preferred the previous location of Parellel 49. The seating is uncomfortable, and I found the garish faux-hipster décor an eye-sore. The drip and espresso coffee are very consistent. Unfortunately, they are consistently sour and astringent (dry, puckering mouth feel). I drink my coffee black, and these flavours are unpleasant. However, if cream is added an attempt to lessen the astringency of the brew, the results are like you're consuming soured expired milk. The service was pleasant, and there was unlimited WiFi available. Not recommended EDT: Not sure why Parallel 49 has separate Yelp pages for Lucky Doughnuts, but I've posted reviews to both, as they are the same location/business. read more

Amazing donuts! Seriously hands down the best I've ever had, with unique delicious flavours. However I think it's crazy that you can't order a dozen of the vegan donuts. Ordered a dozen and was only allowed to have two vegan donuts out of 12, I offered to pay more (even tho they are priced the same as non vegan donuts) I was told it wasn't allowed even tho the display was full. So I got 10 donuts and my vegan gf got 2 hahah good for me but bad for her. Hope they change this odd rule soon! read more

We dropped by for doughnuts on a Saturday morning. Boy, was it busy. Line up to the door and almost all of the tables inside and in the patio were taken. We managed to snap up a table as some other customers left. The creme brulee doughnut sounds amazing, but turned out to be very weird. Shards of caramelized sugar mixed with doughy doughnut. Huh? So strange and unappetizing. The vanilla bean cream in the middle was delicious though. The mango passionfruit doughnut was great. Tropical flavours and bursting with mango passionfruit cream. Yum! Decor was trendy and the patio seemed like it would be really nice in the summertime. We'll definitely come back and try that bacon apple fritter that I was eyeing. read more
