They are located on the corner of Euclid Ave and Marquis, next door to Kroger. If you turn off of Euclid to Marquis, once on Marquis, you can then immediately back-in to a spacious angled parking spot. I am gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, and soy-free, and this establishment offers doughnuts with these specifications. And I'm so glad they do! The staff member helped me navigate the menu and was super helpful. Only the vanilla-based vegan gluten-free doughnuts are soy-free, so if you cannot tolerate soy, do not order the chocolate-based doughnuts. I ordered the vanilla-based vegan, gluten-free, soy-free French Toast doughnut, as well and the vanilla-based vegan, gluten-free, soy-free Strawberry Shortcake doughnut. OMG the French Toast was my favorite! I loved both doughnut flavors, however, the French Toast is stellar! The establishment is large inside, plenty of seating available, and very clean. I don't often eats sweets, and if I do, I usually make them myself. When I do decide to treat myself to something that I have not made, I will venture here.

One word, Dangerous. Parlour Donuts has officially ruined my self-control in the best way possible. These donuts aren't just good, they're dangerously good. The kind where you fully intend to order one... and somehow walk out with two. Or three. The layers are perfectly flaky, the flavors works well well together, and every bite feels like it was engineered to make you say "okay, just one more." Fair warning to anyone with even a shred of restraint: you will lose it the moment you take your first bite.

Coconut Cream Filled Peach Cobbler

What an awesome find in Lexington! Wife and I wanted something quick and easy before our day of outdoor market fun started on Saturday. After a quick Yelp search I suggested Parlor Doughnuts and boy were we amazed by the doughnuts. My wife said that Parlor Doughnuts is definitely her favorite of all time. We both loved the texture that Parlor doughnuts have, almost like a croissant (or doughsant) type. Not overly sweetened dough, but the sugar cinnamon dusting brings it all together. I ventured out to get the premium version, Coconut cream and the seasonal Peach Cobbler. In full honesty, that coconut cream filling is probably the best I've ever had. Top it off with the whipped topping and you basically have a handheld mini coconut cream pie. It's no lie when Parlor claims to be small batch.

Chocolate on chocolate

since the reviews were all over the place, I decided to give it a go this morning. haven't had a donut in years. If you've ever had a cake doughnut, thats what these are. The croissant style doughnut is for the reg gluten ones only! Which means the gorgeous presentation online/in display cases, is not the same as what us GF peeps get. That said, these are still yummy, but it's the standard we're all used to. I saw other comments about dryness, mine weren't Denseness, these are hefty, because they're more like cake. I wanted the vanilla and chocolate bases, but all they had this morning was chocolate. You choose one of the 2 bases then the top glaze: French toast, Strawberry, Blueberry, Chocolate with sprinkles (there were 1 or 2 others that I can't recall). The chocolate on chocolate was lovely, but I was only able to eat half because it is so rich. The blueberry was my favorite, but wish it had been on a vanilla doughnut instead of chocolate. (if you are not a huge chocolate fan, call before you come!) Also, make sure you get extra napkins. Like most other gluten-free foods, these began to break into chunks.

These doughnuts are amazing! I had the maple bacon and it did not disappoint. The menu also had breakfast sandwiches as well but we only had doughnuts. Restaurant was clean. Parking on the street. Didn't feel they were overpriced either for the size of the doughnut.

The inside is bright and modern-- very welcoming! We came because my parents are on keto and this place makes keto donuts! My partner and I did not order keto though and thought these were fantastic! I got the s'mores donut and he got the cookies and cream. Can't go wrong with either! Soon after we ordered, about 3 mins later they had our donuts ready! Nice and quick for sure. We're visiting for the holidays and would come back here again when we are in the area!

Box of 12 doughnuts

So, so good! We got a variety of doughnuts and they were all top notch. We also got a few different breakfast sandwiches which were very good! The ~vibe~ was very chill and there was plenty of space to sit comfortably. Prices were fair for craft doughnuts. The only reason I took a star is because they didn't have any high chairs, and doughnuts are quite possibly one of the worst foods to have a toddler eat while sitting in your lap.

Cookies N' Cream

Bad service waited 50+ minutes for this! My order was forgotten and never started. Multiple customers who arrived after us received their orders. And when I asked a second time about it they said it was coming but it was clear the order was missed. I see lots of the same comments you would think by now they would have changed their system.NEVER COMING BACK

Cookies & Cream donut, mini donuts with chocolate glaze dipping sauce! Very good, rich, donuts!

Airy spacious interior
Paul A.

This is simple: GET THE LAYERED DONUTS! I was shocked at how unique these were. The donut has an airy flaky crunch when you cut into it. Soft gooey inside with a satisfying crispy exterior... my eyes and jaw opened wide with excitement. Wow these rock! My favorite flavors were the strawberry shortcake and Bourbon caramel. I also personally enjoyed the keto maple donut, which was low in sugar and fat. My girlfriend didn't like the flavor, but I did. It was a moist cake donut texture, so that's either up your alley or not. Also worth noting was the comfortable seating, as the leather chairs and wide wooden tables made for a nice study space. The walls are all glass so there's also a lot of natural light, and they offer free wifi. I didn't see many electric plugs, though, just FYI. In summary, this is a versatile and delicious donut shop that I highly recommend!

Inside the Restaurant

I recently tried these and they were fantastic - They are able to make any of the donuts on their menu to order at any time so you have a ton to choose from. I took mine to go but the restaurant is so cute! Definitely a good spot to meet a friend or do some work. The team was so kind & went above and beyond to make sure I understood the menu since it was my first time.

Carnival donut . Omg, yes yes yes!!
Julie h.

So glad we check out this spot while in town. Found it on yelp, of course and the pictures of the donuts made me slightly drool. Very clean establishment with decorative flooring. All their donuts seem to be rolled in a cinnamon sugar then they add the topping. I only saw a few filled ones. I opted for the carnival donut cause the little kid in me is a sucker for rainbow sprinkles. Pops got the turtle cheesecake which seemed to sell out within minutes afterwards. If I lived in town I would be in every week to try a new flavor. Next time I'm in Lexington I'm definitely circling back.

In…read moreLexington KY for a tandem bike tour with Adventures in Tandem, looking for coffee and breakfast. There was a lovely ( and quite colorful ) woman who said a cheery "good morning!" To us as we walked across the street to Dudley's . We then walked back over, discovered she'd been cleaning up the outdoor seating for 3rd street stuff! What an amazing and super cool place! The artwork on the walls is colorful and expressive! The egg and cheese in everything bagels were divine, and the Secretariat latte ( what else would I order in Lexington???) was delicious - a combo of coffee, cinnamon, maple syrup, and a splash of vanilla The staff was lovely, the place very comfortable and colorful, food and coffee excellent!!! A MUST visit

I personally like garlic cream cheese and I add avocado and cucumber for a small extra fee and it's so worth it. I've introduced a good amount of people to this place, I love how unique and homey it feels in a way. Although, I will say I am not a fan of their coffee I've tried around 5 different coffees from here and some are better than others. They do offer other drink options so no big deal to me! I've only ever had one guy be slightly rude to me while ordering but that's not stopping me from the bagel lol.

One of…read morethe guys on shift was quick to tell us all about their menu and other location as well as gave us samples of their cream cheese. I just loved how he was so quick to jump in and tell us everything we needed to know while the others took our order and made the drinks. So efficient and a great way to showcase the menu! Inside was cozy and a great spot to set up to work. They had plenty of outlets near tables to plug in your laptop. Convenient location! Also have to note the matcha is not pre-sweetened which I prefer. I don't like syrups or sweetener in my matcha and too often coffee shops will use a pre sweetened drink mix. I would definitely be back when in the area again!

Which was really good by the way and my friend said her coffee was really good as well. They have a variety of snacks as well as bagels that are flown in from Queens, NY(which is where I'm born and raised). I did ask the girl at the counter and she told me she thought they were from Queens. She did confirm with someone named Nate. This is where it kind of goes sideways for me he was very dismissive about it when I told him I was born and raised in Queens. Both girls at the counter on the other hand were super friendly and helpful. Would I go back again? I would because I'm all for supporting small businesses especially when their coffee is that good. Would I care to speak with Nate again? Absolutely not.
