Karen B.

Great doughnuts, we tried several. Loved the yeast chocolate glazed. A few we tried were maybe overcooked? Still very good, and good coffee. A nice doughnut destination!

Counter

Really liked this donut and coffee shop in Greyline station. Cute interior, friendly staff, and delicious offerings. I recommend the blackberry goat cheese thyme donut.

Coconut cream cold brew
Phoebe M.

Wow! I've been wanting to try this donut shop for awhile and I'm so glad I did. The creamsicle donut was light and fluffy. The coconut cream cold brew was delicious. The inside is a perfect atmosphere and I wish I had a place like this in my hometown to hang out. Lots of comfortable seating. There were so many flavors in the case - I'll be back to try more of them.

While they no longer have my favorite donut (funnel cake ), North Lime Donuts is still a Saturday morning staple in our house! Our kids are happy to get coffee and a donut and we can burn the calories off by walking from our house. Staff is amazing and service is always fast and friendly!

Menu and donut counter

The donut and coffee / drink selection is unique and never disappoints! I love the seasonal options. This is the perfect spot to meet friends for a casual catchup, or to squeeze in a few hours of work.

Iced pistachio oatmilk latte and a sticker!
Nony Rose S.

Pulled off the highway to grab a cup of coffee and thought I'd try a local brew. This place was so cute! They roast the coffee in house and my iced oatmilk pistachio latte was delightful. Both of the batistas were super sweet. I asked about their gluten free donuts and they apologized and said they only offer them Fridays. If I'm ever passing through Lexington on a Friday I will definitely stop in!

One of the better places I usually like going. Recently I became homeless and for my self I run. Well I always used to run here and get a cup of coffee and without a doubt one of the best places to get coffee. You don't need flash or style just good people serving coffee.

Trendy little spot in Lexington. I worked remotely here for a few hours when my flight home was delayed. Ended up grabbing a few donuts to sample, because how can you resist. Funfetti - meh. Just a sprinkle donut was hoping for funfetti cake on the inside. Oreo - great Funnel cake - pretty good Overall, coming from NJ/NY I have definitely had better donuts but the aesthetic here definitely hit the spot and the donuts were by no means bad, just not overwhelmingly good. I def recommend checking it out if you're in the area.

Chocolate Iced Donut
Mallory R.

I tried one of the north lime locations in Louisville and wasn't super impressed but I thought I'd give this location a try and it was so much better. The donuts are definitely thiccccc but they aren't overly sweet. I got a chocolate glazed donut and it could use some more chocolate flavor with the icing but I enjoyed it. I also got an iced mocha which was delicious. The space itself is super spacious with lots of seating and plenty of people were there doing work. Nice redemption from my first experience!

North Lime has multiple locations, but this one is actually on the northern part of Limestone and thus must be the namesake. It appears to be the crown jewel of Greyline station and offers a large interior seating environment and hot beverages, as well as a significant rotating donut selection, including a daily vegan specialty flavor and occasional GF options, which aren't easy to find with these sorts of desserts. And taste-wise, my vegan chai was not much different from my conventional chocolate glazed donut, with both being as indulgent as one would hope. It's not health food, but this is likely as good a donut as you can find around here.

Plain donut and cortado
George R.

One of the first places I visited when I landed in Lexington a few years ago. The regular donuts reminded me of fry bread, and the cortado was amazing. I couldn't believe that a donut shoppe could make a better espresso drink than all of the coffee places in town - but that's how Lexington is - the best places are never the ones that you'd expect. FYI - they make the best hamburger for "Hamburger Week," but don't belong to that event. They just make their own and aren't part of the advertisements the "official sponsors" are part of. They even catered a number of events for my students over the years, and it was always great.

North Lime was probably one of my favorite parts about visiting Lexington! My colleague and I stopped here for breakfast before a conference and it was a great choice! They have a variety of fresh, handmade donuts for reasonable prices. Their flavors were unique, but they also had some classics. I got a glazed, cinnamon sugar, and a chocolate milk. All were great. The staff was friendly, the inside was aesthetically pleasing and clean, and the store just had great vibes. Stop in for a donut or two the next time you're around.

This place was super yummy and cute inside! The barista was very helpful. Definitely recommend their donuts and cinna-monkeys

This place is a hidden gem. I just happened to see a sign at the end of the road one day and have…read morebeen going there each time that "got to have a donut" urge hits. It is a small shop but offers a wide assortment of donuts and drinks. The store is very clean and bright, and all the staff I have met have been friendly and courteous. We picked up a dozen assorted donuts for our granddaughter and her overnight guest. To get a dozen assorted donuts, it costs $14.99 right now which is the going rate, which is cheaper than Indy. They did run out of glazed donuts this time so to insure you get your favorite, try to go early! This donut shop is so much better than getting donuts from grocery stores. There really is no comparison, they are all freshly made that day and we have never been disappointed. I have been known to sneak a few of their donut holes on the drive home. There is no drive-thru at this location. Later in the day, I tried a plain glazed donut that was solid in the middle, i.e. no hole. OMG puts the filing in the donuts after you chose your filing, not ahead of time. But this donut had no filing. I was surprised how much I liked it with no filing. I loved it so much I had a second one.

11/3/24 My husband and I stopped by this donut shop around…read more10:30 am. It was both of our first time to this location. They were nearly sold out, but the staff went above and beyond to make us a unique treat. They took their classic glazed donuts, dipped them in chocolate, and added crunchy peanuts on top. The result? The most airy, fluffy donuts we've ever had! Perfect balance of sweetness and texture, and the extra touch made it feel extra special. The ambiance is very causal laid back atmosphere. Highly recommend stopping by early to get a taste of their delicious creations!
