My son had donuts delivered for my husband's birthday! Omg! Best donuts in town!!! Sorry other donut place, we will be going to Proof!!!! Donuts were so fresh! And my hubbys new favorite is the warm donut holes! Love, love, love!!!! read more

We stopped into Proof Donuts while in Billings and thought it was a fun spot to try. The donuts are creative and visually appealing, with a variety of flavors that make it easy to want to try more than one. That said, they do lean pretty sweet, so it can feel like a lot, especially if you are ordering a full box. The donuts we had were good, but they did not taste as fresh as I would have expected, which took away a bit from the experience. Overall, it is still a place I would go back to, just with a different approach next time. I would probably stick to one or two instead of ordering a full box. read more

This little donut shot is located in the heart of downtown Billings. They boast that their donuts are made fresh everyday, and they are run by 3 born and raised Montanans The interior is nice and bright, a little small, but the donuts and coffee are prepared to-go. The display case has beautifully decorated donuts, and it's honestly hard to choose which one you want (I got two) The person working was efficient. It was early and they weren't particularly friendly, but they were professional. Each donut was placed in a to-go plastic protective case, my coffee was made to-go, and I was offered a carrier and/or bag The coffee (latte) was mid at best, especially for other options in the area. And the donuts were a little too sweet for me. I also wanted the Homer donut to be strawberry, and it was cherry... an artificial taste I wouldn't usually gravitate towards. Everything was fine, but I wasn't overly impressed Some tips: Proof has seasonal donuts that are always intriguing. Currently, there are donuts more on brand with the fall, but when I went in they had an Ube donut with lemon, and I really wish I had tried it Cheers!! read more

DELICIOUS doesn't even do this place justice! This is such a sweet, hole-in-the-wall local place. They have a few doughnuts that change twice a month which is really fun to follow. I stopped in on a random Wednesday morning and ran into the friendliest staff! They were so helpful on doughnut recommendations and fun to chat with. I will be back for sure! read more

Waited in an empty dining room for a sandwich that never made it out of the kitchen. After about 20 minutes told the staff I needed to change the order to go...that is when they started the order. The people that ordered wayyyyyy after me got their order. I left. Worst service in town. Zero stars. read more

Definitely not fresh donuts the morning we ordered from door dash! They were cold as though they'd been refrigerated over night. I picked at mine and ended up tossing most of the order in the garbage. This taught me that donuts really should be made shortly before you eat them. That's the magic of fried dough apparently!! We won't be returning. Dang! I really had high hopes. Maybe the owners will monitor this business better in the future. read more

Surprise this was in Billings. This place slings creative artisan doughnuts at a super reasonable price. Went here for breakfast before a long drive and it was a nice hearty snack and decent coffee. The creative flavors are the big draw as their flavors rival voodoo hard. read more

Proof Donuts & Coffee - Donuts Near Me - Billings, Montana

The food is mid. The service is terrible, and that is what makes Proof a place I won't go back to. The employees seem indifferent and that doing such a labor intensive task, like taking your order, is an inconvenience. They get a bit 'extra' with the donuts.. "chef Chet has created a masterpiece and added Brussels sprout sprinkles, lemon frosting and a fish sauce glaze." They call it the Kuzu Krispy. Even Albertsons has better donuts (you just can't act pretentious when you consume a fat-pill that didn't cost $8). Blacksmith Coffee has better quality (and priced) breakfast food, and the customer service is excellent. read more

I had to wait 30 minutes for a coffee. I understand that places are busy but the fact that the drinks were backed up with no one making them for the first minutes I was here is unacceptable. My food came out 15 minutes before my drink. read more

Enjoyed breakfast at Proof Donuts this morning. My husband & I are visiting my parents so this was my first time eating here. We came for the beignets since I don't find many places that have them near me in Fl. Dad ordered a breakfast with 2 eggs, bacon, potatoes & cinnamon toast, which he enjoyed. The rest of us each had a bowl of beignet, which came with six pillowy, soft, fried pieces sprinkled with lemon powdered sugar. We all enjoyed them & two people could share one order / bowl. Great beignet outside of NOLA! The inside decor is colorful & playful. All the staff was friendly. Looking forward to coming back again soon. read more

Proof Donuts and Coffee is a new spot for morning munchies of the donut kind. Proof has self-proclaimed gourmet donuts, and if price is a factor in that assessment, then yes, they are. However, I will say that Proof does have uncommon flavor selections, with some that are more pastry than traditional donut and all a decent size. Once you pick one up, I think you'll find that it's the size of two ordinary donuts, but that's subjective because who knows the standard for normal, unless comparing it with the pre-boxed donuts in a grocery store. Proof donuts is in the same shop as Kal's Chicken Coop but is open in the morning before Kal's starts serving lunch and stays open until the donuts are gone. My guess, based on what I saw, is the donuts will sell out long before lunch. When you walk in, there's a menu board showing the prices for the donuts and the sizes of coffee. Right be the register where you order and pay, is a display case showing the available flavor choices that day. It's a rotating selection. I bought a half-dozen donuts to share with a group of friends, and after cutting them in half, was able to sample two. That's where the "meh" came in for me. The first was an ordinary donut with the glaze, and it was the hardened translucent sugar glaze that made that otherwise ordinary, unusual. Although it was good, I didn't think it was worth the price because nothing else made it stand out from any other frosted/glazed donut. The other choice I sampled was more a pastry. It had a sweet cream filling and blueberry topping that both just spilled out with every bite. The flavors exploded. That one was worth the price. To me these donuts were rich but not overly sweet. Proof is a splurge place, not a regular rotation spot. There's just something about paying that much for a donut and a small coffee that feels too decadent, at least to me. Oh, and I can't forget the coffee -- it wasn't ordinary coffee, and I'd probably come back here regularly just for that, but the temptation to get a side donut might be more than I would want to battle. It's weird typing "donuts" when sometimes I see these spelled as "doughnuts". I'm using the spelling in the name of the shop, just because read more

Solid donuts. The burritos were phenomenal. The coffee, not so much. Too strong tasted like it had been on the stove all day. They don't offer anything in the mellow blend. It's like Starbucks but worse. Just buy a bottle of water instead. read more

DOWNTOWN LOCATION!! 2715 1st Ave N Suite A, Billings, MT 59101 Imagine our surprise walking down 1st Avenue just across the street from TEN, to find that PROOF has a downtown location in addition to its flagship shop on 24th! It was my birthday today and Proof celebrated me with a free donut! The donuts are fantastic to behold and quite delicious! My wife and I shared the PB & J donut and the Chocolate PB donut over large triple shot lattes. What an excellent way to start my birthday morning We've tried many other flavors of the donuts and you really can't go wrong with any choice--they are IMO better than Voodoo donuts and on par with the Doughnut Project in NYC. Billings has long awaited a "next level" donut shop that isn't a national chain and Proof does not disappoint! The downtown store is similarly appointed in vivid color. So many fun pictures and whoever did the donut photography near the napkin dispenser has an excellent eye. Don't forget to take a turn on the pink couch in the sitting area. read more

Three donuts and a $2.50 coffee. Should never be over $20 at the register. The young lady that took my order was rude to my children when I told her that we'd be dining in. Asking if they were going to behave. I'll not have my parenting or my children's behavior questioned by a person that we've never met before. What a thing to say. Never coming back here. Never going to recommend this place. Going to tell everyone that this place is one to avoid. Overpriced, staffed with cold people. And the product is not even good. read more

Great Donuts & coffee, but the burritos are our favorite. So glad this place is in Billings!

All the good things plus friendly staff and great space. Donuts were outta this world and the coffee also hit the spot! Love this gem.

Been here a couple times while visiting Billings and it's been lovely every time! I always go for the red velvet donut because i'm a creature of habit but it's so delicious. We've also tried their maple donut, boston crème, and some of their other chocolate crème filled donuts that I can't remember the name of. They are so delicious and a great size for the price. I've also had their iced coffee and their burritos which were delicious as well. The space is really fun and vibrant and the customer service is always excellent! read more

Delicious original donut flavors. Staff , & owners very friendly & helpful. Must try!

We went to proof just looking for somewhere to get coffee that also had food, and it more than exceeded our expectations for that. The staff was attentive and friendly. They had a larger food menu than I would've expected for a donut shop and we ordered their neato-rito breakfast burrito with sausage and their scram-bowl egg scramble. Both meals were great portion size for the price and the flavor was killer. Everything was well seasoned and the potatoes were crispy. The braided donut we got had a perfectly yeasty bready flavor and the coffee wasn't bad either. The interior decoration and music was a fun vibe, they were playing reggae music and had google eyes on their trash cans read more

We ate here last weekend. The breakfast burritos were excellent! However, the donuts missed the mark. The oil needed to be changed, you could taste that it was old. We got there right when they opened, but the donuts were dry. They were beautifully decorated and the glazes were tasty, but the donuts themselves need some work. read more

Unique, and delicious. This place has great everyday fare and specials that are worth checking back for. One of my favs was a taro filled and frosted concoction. Don't leave the box on the counter or your dogs will have a tasty treat too. read more

30 minutes just to get 2 donuts and $7 for those 2 donuts. Ridiculous. There is nothing special about these donuts that makes them worth 3.50 each. Lots of staff in there but they are so disorganized. The poor girl doing donut orders was being bothered by all other employees asking her for stuff. There was one worker in there just walking back and forth. In the 30 minutes I was there I didn't see her do anything productive. We will not come back here. read more

$18.00 dollars for 6 donuts????? Why go to college sell donuts in Billings, Mt., these donuts are as common as what you might find at a truck stop or a 7-11 as you cross the country. In my opinion these donuts should be $1.25 each at best and if you bought a cup of coffee maybe 'the fried dough' would be on the house. Personally I felt ripped off....6 donuts not 12 donuts and not a bakers dozen ......6 donuts for $18.00 when you leave this donut gold mine you feel like Wylie Coyote getting smacked with an anvil! read more
