Great location though the parking is a little sus. Beware where you park. The Maple Bacon doughnut is, mmm! The coffee is above average. It is very welcoming as soon as you walk in and the people were great. I love their doughnuts. It is always a great to come here. read more

I was clued in by a friend that I simply had to try Parlor Doughnuts, so made it a point to visit on a recent visit to Lakeland. It occupies a beautiful spot just a few blocks outside the main square in downtown Lakeland. The interiors of this donut cafe are tastefully decorated, and they have ample seating should you choose to enjoy your specialty donuts there soon after being served up. While it was hard narrowing down my selection since everything sounded great, I went with their cookies and cream donut (5/5) based on the recommendation of one of the staff members. It was quite possibly one of the best donuts I've had in years, with perfect donut texture as you bit into it, with all the delectable flavors of the indulgent cookies and cream on top. Not only was the donut excellent, but they are served up in tastefully retro boxes which just added to an already amazing experience. While I am generally underwhelmed with donut places, my experience with Parlor Doughnuts recalibrated my scale to what a delicious and ideal donut experience should be, and look forward to trying out their other locations in my future travels. A special thanks to Parlor Doughnuts for raising the bar in the donut game. read more

I tried Parlor Doughnuts for the first time and it was fantastic! The concept of a savory doughnut was strange enough for me to try it and it did not disappoint. Staff was a delight to deal with and the decor is plesant, I love the atomphere and americana vibe the shop offers. I highly recommend checking it out next time you are in Lakeland. read more

This location is super cute. Very clean and has a modern take on an old school style. The donuts were on displayed and we had a hard time choosing our top 3. The French toast was said to be the top seller and I would rate it 8/10. The banana pudding was a 7/10 but the blueberry hill was 10/10. We should've tried the strawberry shortcake but I will be back to try it. This is our second time and we were able to come in. We ordered from this location before and they were so accommodating to our nut allergy. We also got the banana pudding coffee with almond milk, delicious! read more

Wow wake up everyone to the best location for family members and friends who have been working for a worthy cause

Delicious donuts, snacks, and drinks just off the main strip of downtown Lakeland. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating with an upscale ambiance. Very busy on Saturday but the line moves pretty quickly. The restrooms are a little confusing to find as they are out the rear exit and down a back hallway. read more

The so is in a great location and a perfect stop after visit the farmers market on Saturday mornings. I ended up choosing the Coconut Cream Filled Donut and my husband got the Cookies 'n Cream layered donut. We waited to eat our donuts upon arriving home. Sadly mine tasted burnt and my husband says that his did had some chocolate flavor to it, but really didn't get cream or cookie. I hate it experience wasn't better. read more

THANK YOU Parlor Doughnuts for coming to downtown Lakeland! This is a fantastic donut spot that will surely keep busy for years to come. Parlor Doughnuts is originally out of Indiana I believe, so it was very interesting to hear they were expanding to Lakeland- and that first day open was insane. I saw pictures of the line literally out the door, down the street and around the block. Now, after going to try it, I understand and think it's worth the wait. Okay, maybe not that extreme of a wait but 10-15 minutes like when I went was totally fine. The donuts here are a little different in that none of them have holes. They're big pieces of dough with various toppings and some with fillings. But they're also kind of crunchy on the outside while still being soft on the inside and it is a marvelous combination of textures and tasty goodness. I tried the maple bacon, which I'm not sure why because I'm normally never a maple bacon fan. But this was easily one of the best versions of that donut I've ever had. It's literally made me look differently at maple bacon flavors now. The bacon was in smaller, crispier bits and the maple frosting was melty perfection. They have a decent selection of coffees as well, both basic and more complex like cold brews, lattes, etc. We all enjoyed our coffees a lot. Between that and the donuts it was an excellent trip. But they not only serve donuts, if you wanted something else besides the sweets. They do have some breakfast sandwiches/ savory breakfast items on the menu. I tried the breakfast tacos and they were very simple but that made them absolutely delicious and not a crumb was left behind. Lastly, I really love the theme and style Parlor Doughnuts has going on, it's really well done. From the cool tiled floor with all the gold accents and big hanging lamps, it almost feels like this place should be in the midst of NYC or some big city. Very impressed with this place! read more

Absolutely adorable place. The inside has lots of seating and a nice flow. We had some keto donuts (which is what brought us there to begin with) and they were awesome as a treat. My diabetic father liked the cherry and we got cinnamon sugar and cinnamon swirl. The keto are more like little Bundt cakes but still great. Then we got cinnamon swirl and honey glazed regular donuts and they were delicious. They are crispy like a fritter and the light and flakey. We got a coffee too and it was great. The staff was super helpful and friendly. We will definitely be back to try more flavors. read more

All the hype in downtown is all about Parlor Doughnuts. Naturally there was a line, but it moved rather quickly. It looked they had about a dozen or so different kinds of doughnuts. They also have coffee and breakfast sandwiches. I got a maple bacon and a box of cinnamon and sugar holes. The maple bacon had good texture and was fluffy. Not your typical doughnut texture. Almost bread-like. Still tasty. There was a balanced sweet and savory flavor. Personally I would like a thicker cut of bacon and cut into pieces instead of one strip. The cinnamon sugar was really good and fluffy as well. I really didn't have much time to hang out. But from the looks of it, it was decorated nice. I really liked the stark white with black graphics. When I have more time I'll try out the coffee and vibe. Parlor is a great addition to downtown Lakeland. Check it out. read more

Parlor Doughnuts had me giggling and kicking my feet over a pastry. I got the maple bacon and carnival doughnut--both straight up elite. The glaze and texture was super nice, light but still got that oomph, not a dense brick like some spots. Staff was nice and helpful. Ambiance is giving Thomas Jefferson had jeans and a Harley but I feel proud to be an American here. 10/10 would risk unbuttoning my jeans again. read more

The donuts were amazing! Nice and crispy on the outside and perfectly tender on the inside. My favorite was the one pictured the maple bacon. My husband and son both enjoyed the French toast. My husband had the lucky latte and I had the honey cinnamon espresso. Everything was delightful. There was no wait and we got our food and drinks quickly. The dining area was very modern and clean. Lots of seating available including high chairs for littles. The only parking available is street parking or a lot behind the restaurant. We will be back! read more

Can't believe I forgot to take a picture of the donuts when we got home LOL. We visited a Parlor Doughnuts when we were in Nashville and were SO excited that lakeland got one too. I'd never had a croissant-like donut in Florida before Nashville. It was just as good as their Nashville location. Donuts were fresh and delicious. Service was quick and friendly. The inside was decorated just like the Nashville location. Will definitely be back. read more

The donuts were very different! They almost give the vibe of a sweet thicker dough croissant. I like the different options of flavors. I will say you may feel rushed and the staff didn't seem very assertive when it came to describing the donuts or how many they come in a pack. Idk I wasn't impressed by the service but for 6 I paid about $20 which wasn't bad. My son and dad enjoyed the sweets. read more

While at the weekly farmer's market in downtown Lakeland this morning we made a quick stop at Parlor Doughnuts to see what they were all about. We picked up 6 donuts -- three raspberry filled, two campfire and one cinnamon. The donuts were soft, fresh and not cake donuts. The raspberry ones were loaded with jelly and the cinnamon one was quite tasty and not dry as one might think a cinnamon donut would be. The campfire one had chocolate and marshmallows. We'll definitely be back! read more

Parlor Doughnuts just opened in Downtown Lakeland a couple weeks ago, so my wife and I visited the first opportunity we got. We had visited another location of this chain, so we knew to expect high quality creative doughnuts. This location met those expectations. We visited around 2pm and they were still making fresh batches of doughnuts about an hour before closing. We tried The Swan, Peanut Butter Cup, and Turtle Cheesecake. The doughnuts were all soft, nicely doughy inside and lightly flakey on the outside. The Swan was a local inspired doughnut covered in a sweet flavorful maple glaze and topped with airy whipped cream. The Peanut Butter Cup had a rich peanut butter and chocolate icing. The Turtle Cheesecake was creamy and tangy. Overall, Parlor Doughnuts is a welcome addition to the Lakeland food scene. read more

We order three types of breakfast items. All were delicious In addition we order 3 types of donuts: churro chocolate and their seasonal pumpkin chai Hands down the best donuts ever However when ordering our drinks the flavors is good but my medium hot coffee was only filled 1/2 with coffee and 1/4 of whipped cream Overall good experience but they have an opportunity to ensure they give what they are charging for their drinks. read more

The atmosphere is so cute when you walk in, everyone is friendly, I was talked into getting 4 donuts instead of 3, and I donughnut regret it! Lol. They were so good. The burbon caramel is my favorite . They are huge enough to share, but you will want your own. They have a parking lot right next to the actual building, not sure how fast it fills up but I got there at 7:30am right as they opened and it was not busy. I also tried their plain doughnut breakfast sandwich 7/10 it was alright nothing too fancy and I also tried their matcha it had way more milk than matcha 5/10. read more

I made a visit today and became upset about the parking and happen to run into I think may have been one of the owners or managers outside with his family. During discussion he became very understanding and and gratefully allowed me to try the donuts if I found a place and came in. He was very nice along with his wife and staff. Thanks for the opportunity and the donuts were great and very delicious!! I'll be back!! read more

While incredibly expensive, one bite of a doughnut from here will take you back to the way bakeries were in the 1950s and 1960s. I bought two donuts which were delivered by Grubhub, and I couldn't eat the second one because the first one was so bigand yet so yummy. I'm looking forward to having the other for breakfast tomorrow morning! Was worth every penny. read more

Great new donut & coffee spot in Lakeland. Franchise started in Evansville, Indiana, open about two weeks on Bay St, downtown Lakeland. The donuts are 5 star with a nice variety, not too sweet flavors and over a dozen kinds available. They don't have a center hole (tho' some pics do). Very soft insides, sticky outsides. Servers are all helpful and friendly. Beautiful decor & ambiance in an historic building. They don't have the small donuts available yet but do have some nice looking hot sandwiches as well. The one star less than perfect includes scarce street parking only with no one directing illegal local crammed parking. Also the coffee is not any of our local brews-which are the best (including espresso)! They use Pacific sweetened almond milk. (the one of two brands with a chemical taste besides the excess unneeded calories-hey making way for donut calories). Prices are high at almost $4 per donut (when other great local donuts are $1.35). They use a "hog trough" Disney line mentality that is a tight squeeze for strollers, walkers & wheelchairs. The outside side patio is not ADA accessible. I'm sure they'll grow into perfection! read more
