Just discovered this place..... wanting doughnuts and live in Kennewick? GO HERE! These are some of the best doughnuts I've had in the entire Tri-City area. read more

Favorite place to get doughnuts Open nice and early, love the regular glazed and the maple bars. Very light and tasty, with good service! I walk here on the weekends sometimes when I get a strong pregnancy craving, and pick up a dozen for each of my husband and I'd families on Mother's Day. Big hits all around no matter what donuts you pick. read more

This doughnut shop is across from Hapo in a very small and almost deserted strip mall. I go in on Sunday's every now and then and usually there are no customers or one at the most. The doughnuts are always fresh and they are made in the traditional way. These beat the doughnuts that Winco, Fred Meyer, & Safeway make. The chocolate ones are the glaze type not frosting so they are great! The people are very nice and I appreciate the friendly service. They have a decent selection although if you arrive after a "rush" you could be left with minimal options. Also a bonus they have a retro Neo-Geo arcade machine inside now! :) Keep up the great work! read more

They make a great doughnut, especially if you are on the go. Why do you need to be on the go before you can enjoy your doughnut? Because their bathrooms are grosser than a boys middle school restroom after lunch on a day when the custodian is absent. I cringe when I go in there. read more

What an awesome place here in Kennewick. We tried Popular Doughnuts for the first time today. We will definitely be back. One of the best apple fritters I have had. Owners are so friendly. I highly recommend this place to all my friends and family. read more

Maple bars are the best! Come early to get the freshest doughnuts you will ever taste in your life. The price is good for the quality. Vanara is the best. Very nice people. Customer service is awesome. read more

See all

Wowzer's that ham croissant is where its at!! it was better than I thought it was gonna be. I was licking my fingers after I finish this sandwich and the donuts were great too read more

Stop by this morning to try it out...Awesome!!! Definitely a good doughnut that taste light and fluffy not greasy. read more

These are the best donuts we've found in our 8 years here in Tri-Cities. Great traditional donut shop feel, and they are one of the rare places that still makes their donuts over night and in the wee hours of the morning instead of making them the day before. It makes a HUGE difference. read more

Popular Donuts - Still a good selection of donuts at 9:41 am. - Donuts Near Me - Kennewick, Washington

5 stars, no question. Top 5: 1) plain glazed (yes, it's that good) 2) glazed old fashioned 3) glazed buttermilk bar 4) glazed crulluer 5) toasted coconut (cake) read more

It's actually true...they make one batch in the morning and when they're gone they're gone. Stopped in at 1pm to find very little selection and left without buying anything. That's just a dumb business model.They are open 'till 6pm so what the heck are they selling? read more

Thee best maple bar I have ever had. It melted in my mouth. Definitely going back for more.

Bacon Maple Bar. I've never had a better donut anywhere. I'd walk a mile for this one, uphill in the snow, both directions. Located in strip mall across Union from HAPO. read more

Today is Sunday, I desperately needed donuts and this place was my last hope. As I was walking in, the store was closed but the sign said they will open at 5 pm. Right now it's 5:36 and it's still closed.SMH read more

The maple bacon bars are so bomb! But they only have them Thursday to Sunday so keep that in mind. I actually like the glazed donuts here better than Krispy Kreme. Get there early to get them hot and fresh! read more

This is the best donut place we have found in the tri-cities area. We drive over from Richland every couple of months on a Sunday for breakfast. The donuts are better than grocery store purchases and we have never been fans of the Spudnut shop in Richland. There is a good variety and they are fresh tasting. We usually get a dozen donut holes with our regular order which seem to never make it all the way home. They also have a ham and cheese croissant which I usually add to the donut order for myself. It is a little sparse on ham but nice when I don't want sweets. We are not fans of the Mexican bakery offerings in our area, which seem to be the newer businesses created, but have tried a few over the years and still end up back at Popular. It would be nice if we had a Dunkin or a Shipley or a Winchell's in our area for a baseline comparison, but from memory of all those I would say Popular is at least close in quality. read more

Easily the best donuts in town!!! Usually able to pass on donuts- not at this place! Everything is good- but show up early to get the best selection! read more

Hands down the best donuts in Tri Cities - our family favs are the cinnamon rolls, maple old fashioned, maple bars, buttermilk, and the fritters- the fritters are THE BEST! Highly recommend! read more

Very tasty donuts. Fresh and fluffy just like I like them! The only donut I wish they had was strawberry with sprinkles. They had the cake type strawberry with sprinkles, but I prefer the fried donuts. read more

I'm new to the area but I am a huge fan of doughnuts. The doughnuts here are the the best I've ever had and I've already tried all the local places. The only gripe I would say is the younger girl, who seems like shes not apart of the family who ownes it, seemed really rude and nonchalant about taking my order. I would deffinetly come back I just hope she doesnt take my order again read more

All i know is this is the only place I will ever stop to buy my doughnut. Fransisco's does not make a buttermilk doughnut at all that I know of. But the one I had from Viera's Bakery in Pasco, Wa was WAY far from better than the buttermilk doughnut I had at Popular doughnuts. NOT IMPRESSED!!!! I want to vomit from all of the grease used to bake the doughnut. BLAHHHHH!!!! I love you popular and I will never stray as long as you keep a glazed buttermilk for me here. Amen read more

A wonderful find in a sparse donut market. I passed several grocery store bakeries to visit Popular Donuts and they did not disappoint. With fresh and light glazed donuts to truly filling chocolate donuts this is my new favorite donut shop. read more

Their donuts are good as in very good.... you can taste the freshness on it. Very Moist and Soft.

Absolutely the best apple fritters I've ate in my life. The donuts are light and airy...so good

The best donuts in town. This is the only place we go when we want donuts. On the weekends you have to get there early (before 10) or there won't be many donuts left to pick from. I think the prices are reasonable as well. The staff there are always friendly and welcoming every time I've been there. read more

This place looked a little shabby driving up to it but the donuts were worth it. We showed up around ten am so they were sold out of quite a few go tos (maple bars, lemon filled donuts, etc) but we were pleasantly surprised by the freshness and cost of the donuts. Definitely a gem in the Tri Cities. read more

THis is a great little doughnut shop in the central part of Kennewick. They have very good cake doughnuts and many of other great options. The people are friendly and the interior is clean. read more

Yumm!!! The French cooler donuts are just a piece of heaven!! Really awesome lady that works in front, I'm guessing the owner:)

Best of the Tri-Cities. Doughnuts where fresh and they have a wide variety. Only place i'll ever go to buy doughnuts

I visited this place for the first time this morning and I have to say. While the place doesn't look super fancy, they definitely know how to make a good doughnut at a good price. They were nice and moist without being doughy. Sweet but not too sweet. The customer service was quick and efficient. Just the way I like it. Well done!!!! read more

Great donut shop, light & fresh, coffee

Nice little shop. Very clean. Service was great. Thumbs up for not charging to use credit/debit ($3 min order though). Unfortunately the quality just wasn't there. The chocolate old fashion tasted very bitter. The apple fritter was good but the smallest fritter ever. Maple bars were ok. Don't think I'll be back again. read more

Fantastic doughnuts, good prices, friendly staff. Conveniently located in a little strip mall with private parking, Popular Doughnuts is easy to stop at on the go. Fast service, but the only downside is that their hours are not always accurate. Definitely recommended! read more

Hands down the best doughnut shop in Kennewick. Always come here when it's a doughnut type of morning. But be sure to get there early, once they are sold out, that's it! Only maple bar I'll ever eat! Just the right icing to doughnut ratio. Dough is made perfectly, and not too dense. read more

the only donut shop i go to in the tri-cities I've grown to love this family run business BEST DONUT SHOP IN THE WORLD

First time here. Walked in and asked if they had ANY donut holes left, I was told there was none. Another person came in seconds later and asked the other employee the same question. Low and behold, miraculously there was 4 donut holes left. I would have been completely happy with 4. She said "I thought you wanted a dozen". Again, I asked for any, not a dozen, never even mentioned wanting a dozen. I just didn't appreciate coming in as a paying customer and being lied to about what I had asked for. I am happy with their quality of their donuts however, very fresh tasting. read more

Great maple bars, reasonable prices. Haven't tried anything else because the maple bars are so good.

I don't know if I went on an off day or what, but both my boyfriend and I agreed these donuts no where near live up to the hype of these yelp reviews. The apple fritter I tried was so greasy it was pretty much inedible, as were most of the others we picked out. Maybe we'll try it again some time but this time I was sorely disappointed. read more

Well how can I start...Ill keep it quick and simple. We love this place! We have not found any other place that beats the taste of these donuts They make them daily, they are very soft and buttery they just melt in your mouth. I recommend this place I love it here and the girl who works there is very nice also we went once and thats all we needed to get hooked. read more

Popular doughnuts is a small little shop in an outlet mall just off clearwater on union street. It opens up for the early crowd at 4am. They serve traditional doughnuts and dont really specialize in any. What they do put out is made daily but they will let customers grab the day olds at reasonable prices. I always go with an old fashoned glazed. Some of the chocolate and maple covered ones are just too sweet for me. I have to say they have always done a great job on the ones I get. Dont expect nothing fancy if you go in there. They have four booths so getting a seat is not guaranteed. They have a good selection of drinks including everyones favorite darigold milk and usually keep a fresh pot of coffee a brewing. I believe they make espressos as well, but i have not been brave enough to try one. Im sure the coffe places make better drinks. So anyone cruising down clearwater wanting to make a quick pit stop for doughnuts should swing in. They are better than the bakerys at winco and albertson. They close when all the doughnuts are gone despite what the sign says (which is seven pm). With that in mind, I would not stop in past noon. I give them four stars cause they can be too busy at times and getting in and getting a seat is iffy. Other than that they are awesome. read more
