My daughter and her husband wanted donuts at 8:00 at night. We couldn't find many open donut shops; and my husband said we couldn't get "ordinary" donuts from a grocery store, so we found Lukumades by searching on our phones. It was a little bit of a drive away, near the beach, and there was absolutely no parking on a Friday night. My husband dropped me off and circled while I placed a few to go orders. It was a cute little shop with donuts, shakes, and ice cream. The donuts are not traditional donuts; more like deep fried donut holes that are covered with all kinds of yummy toppings. They're also served nice and hot and in 10 packs. They had lots of cool donut flavors like: Dark Delight, Maple Bacon, , White Tella, and Love U Matcha, The prices range from $8.75 to $9.50 per box. They all sounded yummy; but we decided on Twix Fix, drizzled with caramel, melted chocolate, and cookies, and Lotus Crunch, which was topped with melted Biscoff cookies. Our order was ready in about 5 minutes and the bag of donuts was nice and warm. We ate them when we got back home. They were more chewy and heavier than regular donut holes, but rich and delicious. You could really only eat a few; so a box of 10 is a decent sized dessert for 2 people to share. Lukumades is definitely a very unique donut experience and worth supporting because they're not a huge chain. You'll be glad you tried them....and its worth the drive. read more

French vanilla iced latte with oat milk was excellent! We also enjoyed the donuts that we tried. We got The OG, Kinderella, Lotus Crunch, and Maple Bacon flavors. Our favorite was the maple bacon, with kinderella a close second. Made fresh and served warm, would definitely go back! read more

A fave in Jax Beach! Lukumades is perfect for any donut lovers or chocolate lover as they incorporate familiar flavors like Twix, Kinder, Nutella, Snickers. They even have the Dubai chocolate! I've enjoyed their Matcha flavor and Lotus biscoff flavor too. The donuts are made fresh and so that melted chocolate and warm donut hugs your tongue like a comfy blanket. Their people are always friendly. Coffee is good too! A great stop after a nice beach walk or swim read more

After an evening stroll at the beach why not try Greek Ice Cream to replace a bit of those calories? Ordered the Chocolate and Hazelnut flavors with no cone and they were both really creamy and delicious. The servers were really friendly and hospitable during my visit. I will definitely try the other flavors next time I am at Neptune Beach. read more

Our new fave donut spot at the beach! We moved here last year and didnt get to explore here until recently and stumbled upon this spot walking down the street from Casa Marina. Upon entering the cashier was nice and accommodating to our questions. The most popular was the Kinderella so we got that and one of the cashier's favorite the maple bacon. Both SO DELICIOUS!! I love donuts. I especially love mochi donuts. So these Greek style donuts are reminiscent of mochi donuts bevause they're not really light and fluffy they're dense yet bouncy and hearty so funny. They also make them fresh right there so its a major plus and worth the wait if you have to wait for a fresh batch. (We went the next day and they already had made a batch but it was still delicious and warm btw) The decor is cozy too. Theres a single bathroom which is nice. Its a fam fave read more

On one of our visits to Jax Beach we stopped in to finally try the Greek donuts. I had high expectations for this place and i truly think i ordered the wrong thing. I ordered the pistachio topping with chocolate. I was expecting to have a sweet and creamy pistachio topping but instead it was like putting a spoonful of peanut butter in my mouth. There was not one bit of sweetness. There is so many different combos that look good on the menu. Next time i will make sure to ask before i order. But The location of the shop is fabulous because they sell more than just donuts. They also have Gelato and after a long day at the beach that's exactly what i would want. Just an FYI If you have a big party with you the inside is kind of small for seating. read more

3.5 I wanted to love it the second time around...but really didn't. Service- ok, slower but that's because the donuts are made fresh. Vibes- Super narrow and small inside. A few tables and side bar area. Gelato- son liked, basic but good. Donuts- ok. All topping which is great, but the actual donuts lack any sort of flavor which is a deal breaker for me and impacted ranking the most. Don't let this hold you back from gelato. Iced Coffee- unfortunately also lacked flavor- maybe older since it was late afternoon. Price -ok, def higher than a normal donut spot. read more

Lukumades - Chocolate gelato - Desserts Near Me - Jacksonville Beach, Florida

There's something special about finding unique spots like Lukumades! When I first heard about them, I just knew I had to try them out. Hubby and I shared a half and half tray of the Greek doughnuts. We ordered: Kinderella - mind-blowingly delicious! The hazelnut sauce and melted chocolate were phenomenal together. Excellent choice! Bougatsa - more on the simple side but still amazing. I really liked the custard inside and cinnamon sugar outside combo. The doughnut balls were fresh and the topped to order. They also weren't as sweet as I expected which was nice. We also shared an iced latte which was very yummy. Since it was our first time visiting, the kind and friendly owner gave us a scoop of the cookies & cream gelato to try out on the house. It was so smooth and creamy, perfectly balanced and not too sweet. If you're looking for something a bit different, give them a try! read more

I've been hearing all the hype about this spot and I pass it every week on my walks so I decided to give a go. It's super adorable inside. I ordered the plain Jane donuts and also the matcha ones. They have a ton of flavors, and I would love to try the Dubai chocolate ones next time because the donuts are yummy and light. Only thing is, the young girl that rang me up wasn't very friendly and didn't even greet me. read more

If you have actually had homemade ones... these aren't it! The original ones had dough with delicious flavor and simply needed a little honey and cinnamon. These have to be covered in goo taste like anything hence all the flavors definitely not Yaya's. Don't waste your money read more

Nice addition to Jax Beach at a great location. Donuts are made fresh to order. I was expecting a lighter type donut but they're dense and chewy and remind me of mochi nut. They have a variety of toppings which is good because I feel like that's where the flavor comes from, the dough itself was a bit bland. Still made for a tasty bite of sweetness. Will be going back to try the Dubai chocolate ones :) read more

Lukumades is such a fun spot! The donuts were awesome--fresh, hot, and perfectly sweet. I loved the vibe of the place too. Since it's their first location in the U.S., I wish the menu had a bit more description or that someone walked us through how to order, as we were a little confused at first. Still, the treats more than made up for it, and I will be back! read more

What can I say about my absolute favorite thing in Jacksonville? These donut holes are next-level delicious! I'm not exaggerating when I say they're so good, they've made me seriously consider opening a franchise in Gainesville. The only thing stopping me is how much of my own product I'd eat. These little donut holes are bite-sized perfection. They come in a variety of fun, crave-worthy flavors and are served in a little box with fork-shaped picks, making them ideal for sharing... or not sharing at all. The location is super cute, the coffee is great, and the vibe is beachy and laid-back with the added bonus of being right across the street from the ocean and close to plenty of parking. Whether you're grabbing a quick breakfast or a snack to go, it's consistently good every time. I can't recommend this place enough and will be forever grateful to the friend who introduced me to it. A total must-visit in Jax! read more

OMG! We need more of this place around Florida...you order and can not stop eating this delicious mix of dough and whatever flavor you choose...the place looks like an ice crean place but it's beyond that....try it it you won't regret it! Order and in a few minutes you'll be savoring a desert or sweet out of this planet! read more

I had the pleasure of finding this spot while riding my bike along the beach on a hot summer day. It doesn't get more perfect than that. We were able to try a few of the flavors before deciding on our final one. The staff we had today were super friendly and patient. The store is really clean and they serve fresh gelato. I look forward to coming back to try their donuts and refreshers. This hidden gem is a must try! read more

I ordered the Medium Freddo Espresso with Almond Milk, Stevia, and Cinnamon, a Piccolo with Skim Milk and Honey, and the The OG donuts which are drizzled with honey and cinnamon. Unfortunately only the donuts made it to our front door. I don't know who's at fault but the drink was on the receipt so I'm leaning more towards the delivery driver. The donuts were really good! The holes were much different from any another ones I've had in the past, not yeasty or cakey. read more

I was in for the Yelp Event, but I had to cancel. I finally got to stop in and introduce myself to the crew. Luis and I picked up Jed up two coffees to go. I love the place.

Great addition to the Jax Beach town center. Perfect spot to eat in or eat on the go. Donuts, ice cream, milkshakes! They even let you mix the flavors. We got the donuts and loved every bite. One of the workers heard us talking about how we would come back to try and ice cream and ended up giving us a sample. Wow, that bite was 10/10. Definitely a spot we will check out again! read more

We got some donuts for breakfast on our way out of town. They are made fresh to order which is nice. But it takes a while and there were only 2 people ahead of us. I personally wasn't a fan. They were tough in texture and I felt they didn't taste good. But that doesn't mean you won't love them! Parking: there is a park to pay parking lot across the street Restroom: there is a bathroom inside with a passcode. read more

Tried Lukumades in Jax Beach for the first time, and I was blown away! Honestly, I didn't know what to expect but wow, these Greek donuts are something else. They're made fresh to order, literally fried right in front of you, then drizzled with the most delicious toppings. The staff was friendly and on point, they answered all of the questions that I had since it was my first time there. The donuts did take a short while bc they had to fry them, but my order came out piping hot and they were so so good. So I have no complaints! The texture of the donuts is just perfect: crispy on the outside, soft and warm on the inside. Definitely recommend sharing because they're quite filling and the portions are generous. I ordered the Half/Half with Lotus Crunch & Tella. It basically comes with your choice of two flavors (5 each) for a total of 10 doughnuts. Quick Note: They do have vegan options, so be sure to ask the staff which toppings are vegan-friendly. The donuts are made with a vegan dough. Whether you're a donut lover or just in the mood for a new Greek dessert, Lukumades will not disappoint. Can't wait to go back! read more

Are they Greek? Maybe? To me a fried dough ball, topped with your choice of chocolate drip, Carmel, toffee any mix and match. It was good, doughs bit heavy, I was expecting more of a Greek twist - something more like baklava or crisp - but the service was a smile, it was right across the street - good stop for a dough ball read more

Lukumades - Smiles - Desserts Near Me - Jacksonville Beach, Florida

Some of the best donuts I have ever tasted!! Such a cute and quaint little shop right by the pier. All donuts holes are made fresh to order, but require a minimum of 10 per order. All of their donuts, from classic to signature, are vegan. You are able to split the flavors so you can get two per order, and that's exactly what I did. I went with 5 "Plain Jane" and 5 "Glazed", and both flavors were absolutely delicious! They came out fresh and warm, and I barely made it to the car before trying both. Lukumades also offers a variety of "Refreshers" which are like fresh juices, and they also serve shakes, gelato, and hot and cold coffee drinks. This spot is perfect for you if you're a donut and/or coffee lover, and I highly recommend a visit anytime you're in the Jacksonville Beach area! read more

What a cute little place to grab a coffee and satisfy your sweet tooth. The staff were patient and informative since we were unfamiliar with these little Greek donut balls. There are A LOT of flavors to choose from so we tried some of the popular ones recommended by a worker. It seems they make them fresh to order. The fried dough balls have a little bit of chew so a slightly different texture than your standard donut.... Almost like there was a tiny bit of mochi in the dough. My favorites were the Nutella and the biscoff. The Oreo one was way too sweet and had a strong white chocolate taste. I'd like to go back and try some more flavors. read more

Visited:: 25May25 my girlfriend and I frequently go to the beach so we thought that this was a new place, apparently they've been there for over a year. Well I'm glad we went! It's a cute small place. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Everything is made right in front of you. We aren't good at making decisions so we got the half half, Twix fix and kinderella. Twix fix was really good and we agreed that the kinderella lacked some flavor. Since this is a different type of doughnut not sure if they were supposed to be that chewy. We then decided on getting the jam it. That was my personal favorite! With strawberry jam inside. We want to go back and try the other items they have. Also have really good specials throughout the week. Tip:: ask for a sample of gelato, keep the little shovel and use it to eat the left over chocolate! Lots of chocolate too much to let go to waste. Recommend! read more

What a great spot to grab a sweet treat. Day & Time: Friday around 6:30pm Party of: 2 Service: they were friendly and also walked you through the menu giving suggestions. Ambiance: cute and cozy. Order: The OG,Glazed, Kinderella, Cookies & Creama. Peach refresher Portion Size: we got two 10 packs Conclusion: If I am near the beach this would be a go to place for a sweet treat. The donuts just melt in your mouth. The sweetness will really depend on the toppings. As for the refresher, it was mainly a sugary drink. Not the best but not the worst. read more

Finally, a place open late!!! I feel like all businesses close early ever since Covid happened. So thankful this place has great hours! Fresh hot donuts, and you are greeted at the door by a bouncer I loved the whole experience. The shop is cute, staff is friendly, and the donuts were fresh and hot! I would say I'd rather eat the 10 piece donut holes with a fork and knife verses a pointy toothpick, but that's such a small adjustment. I tried this for the very first time this past Friday night at 11:30pm. What a fun night cap! I loved the flavors and I felt like the price point was pretty fair. I tried the original glaze mixed with the melted biscoff cookie flavor. Five of each; So delicious! Will be back to try more flavors. read more

Another one of my catch-up reviews today is on Lukumades out at Jax Beach. I will admit my sin and not having taken pictures of these tasty little treats because they were drippy and very messy and it was very crowded inside so we were eating in my car and trying not to make a mess. Food - 8.5/10. They seem so simple and yet they're so much more. A tasty little donut ball with a plethora of delightful toppings. So many varieties to choose from you can surely find something for anyone. One of the great things about this is the dough ball itself is vegan and the toppings for the most part are vegetarian or vegan friendly. So a wonderful treat that anybody can have without having to think too hard about it. They come 10 balls to a tray and you can go half and half on the flavors which is cool but I don't really recommend after having understood how they are served. Basically the plain balls are made and whatever you pick for your flavor, they top with those sauces or crumbles. So if you're getting a mixed box, the flavors kind of blend together in the middle. Well that comes up with a whole new flavor combination. It's not really doing you any service for enjoying the flavor you picked. On this visit, we were a bit overzealous thinking one trailer per person. Two trays for the three of us would've been a better plan. For the flavors we got we did the OG, Kinderella, Snicka Pick, Lotus Crunch, Dark Delight, and Twix Fix. All of the flavors were amazing, but I definitely think in the future. It will be a one flavor tray. We'll say the only disappointment there were some incongruities in the size of the balls were somewhere about the diameter of a quarter where others were more like a golf ball. Overall, though the texture of the balls himself was perfect fluffy, chewing us and was an excellent bowl of fried dough. The different flavor combinations are fun and delicious. Among the ones we tried none of them disappointed. Atmosphere - 8/10. The ambience of the storefront was beautiful and cozy. The comfort of the storefront is where I kind of mark off some points. It is a very tight fit, and I understand that being this close to the beach property costs are probably very high, but I feel like a slightly different layout could give a better flow to the area. With the counter as a set area, the seating area runs the length of it, and results in people sitting almost touching the counter, which is where you need to be standing to order so if someone is sitting, you're essentially standing with your rear end in someone's face. The day we went it was very crowded and with someone at the register and someone in the seats if you're further back in the shop, you can't easily exit. I think that could easily be overcome by pivoting the ordering station to face the front of the store, but I get they're working with very limited space here. But as I said, the comfort the appeal gives you a very chill beachy vibe. Service - 10/10. I guess it's hard to not be happy when you work in a Sweet shop. I mean, if you were having a bad day, just have a quick snack and that sugar buzz will have you riding high. Everyone who worked here seem to be happy and despite the crowd was attentive to the guests. If you're out for a walk on the beach, I highly recommend popping in for a quick treat. They're open quite late and because the way their product is set up. It's likely to almost always be fresh. read more

Lukumades - Dough menu. So many choices!!! - Desserts Near Me - Jacksonville Beach, Florida

My personal motto... DONUT think of the calories when eating DONUT. I love me some donuts and Lukumades came along, I was elated to hear that they serve Greek donuts, which is not commonly served in Jax. And thankfully, the food stars aligned me perfectly on a weekend where we had a group outing at a local restaurant near this place. So right after dinner, we walked our happy belly-filled arsses down to Lukumades. Walking in, the ambience sets the tone. Pictures of donuts on the walls. And scent of the donuts just allures your nostrils. Their donut/menu concept is pretty simple. Pick your flavor(s) and let the staff do the mixing and drizzling. Pretty straightforward. My personal favorite here, since I love chocolate, is the Dark Delight. And best part is, the donuts and drizzle are not overly sweet compared to other donuts I have had locally. And don't feel bad if you happen to devour many Lukumades donuts. You're basically on the Jax Beach strip. Go for a walk afterwards and burn off those calories. read more
