    Assorted donuts
    Carmen L.

    Holy cow! These are seriously delicious large donuts. My coworker brought in an assorted box and it was super hard to make up my mind because they all looked so good. I'm a sucker for jelly/filled donuts, so I went for a blueberry crumb donut and did not regret my decision. The donut was dipped in glaze and topped with lemon crumb. Amazing! Despite there been more donuts left, I was stuffed. So, if you're trying to decide, choose wisely because one donut is enough to keep you full for a while.

    Neil's Donuts OG location is bright and welcoming with lots of friendly faces! Go early and know what you want because it gets busy inside. The whole family loves the donuts, definitely worth the drive every time.

    Definitely worth the hype! Walked in and the line was almost out the door, but that didn't stop the staff from being quick but friendly with getting their customers situated. I purchased a dozen of donuts of various flavors and honestly it was a great price 17.45. Mind you I even got a few filled donuts such as the key lime and apple filled. No seating in Neil's however that does not take away from how great Neil's Donuts is! Wish I was closer!

    Neil's Donuts is an absolute gem! We unfortunately live out of state but if we lived nearby we'd be here all the time. The selection is huge with donuts, breakfast sandwiches, muffins and coffee, and while the lines can be long, they move quickly. Pro tip: check out the menu online ahead of time so you're ready to order. The staff is fantastic--friendly, patient, and efficient, even with the crowd. The donuts themselves are out of this world. My favorite was the honey dipped, while my husband loved the blueberry crumble. Their filled donuts are especially impressive--split in half and packed with a generous amount of filling. Every bite just melts in your mouth. If you're anywhere near Neil's, don't pass this place up. It's worth the trip!

    I took the last ones!

    Donuts are great! Get there early or place an order because they're so good that they sell out!

    Delicious donuts here that are always made fresh and they are huge! Easy in and out . Staff is friendly and accommodating. Prices are fair too.

    Best donuts in CT! Love all the flavors they have but the French toast is my personal favorite! We also got a garlic bagel with cream cheese, which was yummy too!

    All I can say is "Next!" If you are a sinfeld fan you will know. But I'm all honesty what a great place. Even though you move through the line at the speed of lightning you are treated with respect. Friendly staff, great prices and delicious donuts. You have to be crazy to drive by. It is worth a day trip.

    Thanks Suzanne from Newtown. They're delicious   Apple crumb 11.3.20 Election Day

    2.2.25 This is one of those long overdue & well deserved reviews. I was here on election day 11.3.20 to try them for the first time. They did not disappoint at all. I was here a half hour before they closed and they were still very fresh. They were just about sold out but the slim pickings were fresh. The staff was very pleasant. This place started picking up and they were about to close. I was surprised to see this. I tried a few different donuts. The apple filled, apple crumb that was also apple filled, powdered jelly & boston cream. All of the donuts were filled plenty with their respective filings which was a delight to see for a change. Fresh, light & fluffy. Quality ingredients. The closer I looked, these donuts look like sandwich. Each that I studied looked like a sandwich filled with yummy goodness. It looks like they construct it as a sandwich which is kind of cool & different. The look of the place inside and out is a no frills plain generic look to it. Nothing wrong with that at all. Just saying. I don't need a place to look good. I only need a clean establishment with great food. I've been back here too many times to count since my first endeavor on an epic election day in 2020. They're doing everything right here. No problems at all. They keep you coming back for more.

    stopped at Neil's Donuts before work this morning and i can't believe how busy it was so early in the morning! The staff is so quick and efficient and the whole place smells like sweets galore (as it should). Not only are the donuts are amazing, but all the donuts are packed with flavors and their toppings and yet so light and fluffy! And only $2 a donut? Most places would charge almost $4 for these types of donuts! Wherever you are in Connecticut, it is truly worth the trip!

    Ask the Community - Neil's Donuts

    If I call ahead to come by to pickup an order, can I do curbside pickup?

    Yes curbside is available. We also have Uber eats in the Wallingford store and DoorDash in the Middletown location if that would help too

    What time does one have to be there to get a coffee roll?

    Everyday is completely different. Ever since the article about our coffee rolls it’s hard to keep up with demand. Some days they sell out early. Other days were throwing them out. It depends on social media. Everytime they release the story it goes… 

    Can you call ahead to order donuts/bagels to be picked up at a specific time?

    Yes in fact I recommend doing so

    How much is a donut?

    $49.95 plus tax.

    Do they sell gift certificates?

    Yes

    What's the prices?

    Depends on what you are comparing to. Let's use DD. If you were buying a muffin, DD's are $1.79 and have a cake like texture. Neil's are like a muffin and larger. Danish you can't get anywhere except a bakery. Neil's are so huge it's ridiculous and…

    This is my first time here. My brother sent me a Facebook post of the Berzerker I thought it was…read moreright up my alley. Once I saw that picture, I got in my car and ordered it. It did not disappoint. The sandwich is topped with a toasted pretzel bun. The sandwich contained eggs, crispy bacon, melted cheddar, chipotle aioli and hash brown patty. I also got the side of hash browns and the suggested paired drink of the Cookie Monster. The Cookie Monster is a cookie butter, cold brew topped with cookie butter cold foam. All of these items were very delicious. I do have to note my stomach didn't exactly enjoy the combination but a couple steps of Gingerale and I was good to go. That place was fairly busy. It was Friday night around 6 PM that I went. Staff was super friendly and walked me through the process as I've never been there before, so it was very easy to understand the process.

I'm on Google searching juice bars and this place came up!! I go in! NUMBER ONE this place is cleaner than anything I've been in recently since places don't like to keep up with their environment anymore.. I was greeted by the owner she explained their role in bringing health into peoples lives with fruit bowls, juices, smoothies and more.. AND THEY DONT USE SUGAR IN ANY PRODUCTS.. I explained what I've been experiencing and she referred me to the dragon fire shot , and pointed me to the midnight lemmy drink with activated charcoal which works as a binder to help cleanse the digestive system WHICH IT DID.. and 24 hours later i literally felt better and woke up without the drowsy feeling from the previous days I actually felt energized!
