This was my first experience with Randy's in Atlanta. I've only ever gone to the location in California. Woop Woop- West Siiiide!! I wish I knew the servers name but she was awesome! She explained each donut flavor and packages I could buy. She was so patient with me and my numerous questions. We even spoke about our spoiled puppies. I will definitely be back because the service was amazing and the donuts are fantastic! read more

Pretty solid donuts overall. I don't have a huge sweet tooth since I usually lean more toward savory foods, so I went with the Maple Bacon Donut and a Chocolate Twist. The Maple Bacon was good, but they definitely don't hold back on the bacon. It wasn't bad at all, just very heavy on that salty-and-sweet combination, almost a true 50/50 balance. If you really like bacon, you'll probably enjoy it more than I did. The Chocolate Twist was exactly what you'd want from a classic chocolate donut -- simple, soft, and satisfying. Compared to The Salty, I actually liked these more. I prefer softer-style donuts when I do indulge, and these had that texture. Each donut runs about $4.50, which honestly feels pretty standard for a specialty bakery focused entirely on baked goods. They've got to make their profit somewhere, right? Getting to the shop can be a little hectic if you're unfamiliar with the area. The mall traffic flow seems to change every other week, so it's worth doing a little research beforehand. You may accidentally end up driving into the mall entrances when the shop is really right near the corner of Peachtree and Lenox Parkway by the The Westin Buckhead Atlanta. Overall, I'd definitely give them another try. read more

Randy’s Donuts - Chocolate Twist & Maple Bacon - Donuts Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I searched for the closest doughnut shop to my hotel, my GPS brought me to the mall so I thought Randy's Donuts was located inside the mall. After getting lost for a bit, I made my way into this parking lot. I didn't realize it was in a shipping container. I needed to grab two dozen for to celebrate my foster youths passing their exams. I stuck with the Classics. There was a short line when I arrived a little before 8:00am on a a Friday, but as I was leaving a line started to form. The doughnuts were a hit! The free doughnut per dozen was a nice touch too! read more

YouTube shots made me try it! I watched a short of an Atlanta influencer discussing this spot! She advised that the original donut shop is in Inglewood and they now have a location in Atlanta! The website for Randy's states World Famous since 1952!! While it has not been around since the inception of the likes of Krispy Kreme ( founded in 1932), they for sure have stood the test of time ! On a Saturday evening , around 8:30pm I drove over to Buck head for the sole purpose of patronizing this spot! They are located in a small brick and mortar on the perimeter of Lenox mall parking lot . While a large portion of Lenox mall parking lot is reserved for valet- the lot closest to this donut shop is free! You do have to go through a security gate to park, but there are no fees associated with going through the gate. When I walked in I noticed that the pickings were slim! The staff said they had a busy day! Looking at the donuts I must set they did not scream desirable. I opted to try a classic glazed, the lemon donut and the coffee donut. I did ask the staff which donuts were her favorite - she advised that since they were not gluten free she did not eat them so could not offer any input! While I think it's good for her that she is not tempted to eat the donuts, I would say it's important for staff to be familiar with a product they are working with! The inside of this spot is small- basically most of the spot is taken up for the staff. They do have outdoor seating, which would be nice in warmer weather. As such, these donuts were taken to go. While sitting in the car we tried all 3. They are just donuts to me! Nothing special. Honestly they were giving gas station quality ! I must be missing what makes these world famous! I am thinking they can attribute that to the big donut placed on their brick in mortar in California and not the quality of the product. I will admit that I am no donut connoisseur, but these donuts do but have any special flavor, texture, or creativity! I am glad I stopped by to check them out! I would encourage you to give them a shot! Everyone's taste buds are different! read more

We came in on a Sunday morning (8/31). My friend, Dee took us there after a fantastic dinner the night before. Randy's is fairly famous - they're originally out of Cali and sport the giant donut above their building in Inglewood. Just in case, Robert Downey Jr. sat inside that giant donut while wearing his Iron Man suit in Iron Man 2. So there you go. Randy's has obviously grown in popularity that they've expanded outside of Cali. This Atlanta location (they're in the Lenox Mall parking lot) is small - they appear to be a shipping container converted into a kitchen and business. They offer only outdoor seating, which is perfect for a quiet morning. When we arrived, there was only one customer ahead of us. Both the employees and the customer were friendly. The customer was in town for the Tennessee-Syracuse (which was played on 8/30) game at Mercedes-Benz stadium. We told him we would be at the stadium later that day for Virginia Tech v. South Carolina. That exchange was pleasant, while the employee was helpful, polite and speedy. We took our six-pack of donuts back to Dee's place. We bought the following... Chocolate Long John with Cream Chocolate Texas Raised Coffee Raised Crondy Lemon Old Fashioned Red Velvet Cake We basically cut them up so we could try all of them. I enjoyed each donut, although the long john was my favorite. I can see why Randy's is so popular. Their donuts are simple (for the most part), are made with quality ingredients, and aren't super heavy. Since I grew up on Krispy Kreme, I don't like my donut to be all cute or extravagant. So Randy's is perfect for my simple-donut-loving palette. When combining the quality donuts with the excellent service, Randy's is the spot. If you're ever in ATL and/or want some good donuts, definitely hit them up. Thank you, Randy's! JV read more

BEST DONUTS EVERRRRR!!! The donuts are huge, soft inside and crispy/chewy outside. Perfectly sweet. So many flavor combo! If you're only getting 1, definitely try the "raised" donuts. Affordable. Not to mention the customer service is top notch. No wonder they're all the craze in CA. We've been back 3x in 2wks. read more

EASILY some of the best donuts that I have EVER had the pleasure of having! My favorite one was the Nutella Raised, and for my second favorite it was a toss-up between the Chocolate Buttermilk and Bacon Maple Long John. The quality of the chocolate used reminded me of a decadent chocolate ganache, and that combined with the rich buttermilk donut was a delectable combination. The sheer AMOUNT of bacony goodness contrasted with the maple glaze was the PERFECT fix for any salty sweet craving. My ONLY knock is on the red velvet donut - red velvet isn't really red velvet without cream cheese frosting, and without the saltiness of cream cheese frosting to cut into the rich chocolately sweetness of the red velvet, it's just very sweet and one note. read more

Randy’s Donuts - Chocolate Buttermilk Nutella Raised Bacon Maple Long John Maple Raised with Churros Red Velvet Cake - Donuts Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I understand why these donuts are so popular. These are some of the best donuts I have ever had. This location is inside the parking lot of the Lenox Mall. Finding a parking spot could be a bit of a hassle if the mall is busy. I was able to get my donuts quick. I got an original glazed raised. chocolate raised, apple fritter, and some chocolate donut/croissant hybrid. I liked them all. read more

It is always exciting when new pop-ups arrive in Atlanta, especially when it's the world-famous Randy's Donuts. I had high expectations, especially since the line was out the door on a random Wednesday morning. Let's start with the positives: the service was exceptional. I walked into the small store just as a customer was placing a large order, and the staff couldn't have been sweeter or more accommodating with suggestions, all while the line kept growing! Of course, it wouldn't be a proper review if I only tried one donut, so to maintain my Yelp Elite status, I purchased four flavors to take home. Each donut earned high marks for freshness and variety. However, I had to deduct a few points for excitement. I wanted to give them a better rating for taste, but nothing stood out enough for me to rave about. They were good, but not life-changing. Overall, I would give them a solid 7! I encourage people to visit, take a picture next to the inflatable donut, and enjoy a pretty good donut experience. read more

My fiancé and I had plans to go to the gym. On our way, we decided we really weren't feeling it and took a detour to Randy's Donuts instead. This location just opened up near Lenox, and I was excited to try it! My fiancé had fond memories of enjoying it back when he lived in California, and was craving his old favorites. AMBIANCE: 4/5 -The shop is a cute and industrial little building. As adorable as it is though, it doesn't lend itself very well to lines. There isn't much room inside, so the wait extends out the door. SERVICE: 5/5 -Despite the line, the workers inside are very efficient and move quickly. They have their system down pat, and do it all with smiles. We experienced professionalism and kindness! FOOD: 4.5/5 -Today, we chose Blueberry Iced Cake & Raspberry Jelly Filled & Pink Raised with Sprinkles & Nutella Raised. All of them tasted yummy! I do wish that they had Boston Cream, which is my favorite, but they do have other yummy selections. It feels very classic. The quality is obviously much higher than your average Dunkin Donuts, but less creative than some of the other gourmet donut shops around town like Revolution Doughnuts. All in all, we enjoyed our selections and look forward to trying more! read more

Randy's Donuts has officially made its way to Atlanta, and I had the chance to check them out on day two of their grand opening. This new location sits right in the Lenox Mall parking lot, and it's impossible to miss thanks to the iconic giant floating Randy's donut perched outside. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with genuine Southern hospitality. A friendly gentleman outside welcomed guests with a warm smile, and that same energy carried through to the staff inside. As a first-timer, I kept it classic--glazed, strawberry with sprinkles, vanilla with sprinkles, and a chocolate cake donut. Each one was generously sized, soft, and fluffy with just the right touch of sweetness. The setup is container-style, so don't expect indoor seating. It's a grab-and-go spot, but they've got a patio deck if you want to pause and enjoy your treats on the spot. Overall: Great experience, great donuts, and even better vibes. I'll definitely be back for another sweet treat. read more

I was so excited for the opening of Randy's Atlanta and they didn't disappoint! Randy's is located in the corner of the parking lot of Lenox near Cheesecake Factory and Apple. You won't miss it as a huge donut is out front! I went on a Saturday morning and was able to easily get a parking place. But I could see this being a problem during high volume times at the mall. Once I arrived, there was a line way out the door which was a 20 minute wait but the line was constantly moving. I'm hoping once the newness wears off the line won't be like that! Once I got inside, the staff had the best system on getting orders out the door! I ordered an arrangement of six donuts and every single one was delicious! Lastly, the shop is small so there is no seating inside. But they do have a nice place right outside to enjoy your donuts on a nice day! See you soon! read more

I was so excited to finally experience THEE Randy's Donuts. While I still would like to visit the original location, I'm so happy they've extended a location to ATL. The shop is located in the little tuck of the parking lot across from Lenox Mall's main entrance. The iconic donut sign is posted right infront you can't miss it. The shop is a grab-and-go vibe, there isn't anywhere to sit, however this is a little counter space right outside of it for you to savor a few bites before heading out. The young men behind the counter were SO sweet, truly a great first impression. I was there not only try Randy's for the first time, but also to pick up some donuts for my co-workers. I ordered the following: Glazed Old Fashioned/M&M's Raised/Blueberry Iced Cake/Butter Crumb Raised/Chocolate Long John with Cream/Glazed Twist/Chocolate Iced Cake The donuts that were an absolute hit were the glazed old fashioned, the buttercrumb raised, and the chocolate long john. Oh my goodness the chocolate long john was so good we couldn't stop talking about it....it was like an eclair but better. I did notice they offered drink options, and if my hands weren't full of all those donuts, I would've gotten myself a coffee. Guess that gives me a reason to go back, but do we really need a reason to return to a donutshop? :) read more

Stopped by on a Friday morning to grab donuts with some friends -- and they were TASTY. The shop is a small, order-at-the-counter spot located in the Lenox Mall parking lot. We were easily able to park and had no wait. There's a little counter outside if you want to eat there, but we took our donuts to go and enjoyed them at home. The staff was super friendly and happy to answer all our questions. There are so many fun options on the menu -- I'll definitely be back to try something more adventurous next time. However the classic raised rainbow sprinkle donut I got did not disappoint! read more

I ordered these over DoorDash for guests staying over so I can't say much to the service onsite or the way the place feels inside. I got the Maple Long John with cream and was happy to try some of the other flavors. I'm big on Maple. The flavors are good and there are plenty of choices. If you've got a sweet tooth, this will definitely crush that craving. If you eat more than one, you might get a stomach ache because the donuts are very rich and very sweet. We also got the Pink with Sprinkles, because this place screams that is the one for you. Overall, for a frosted donut, I enjoyed it. I absolutely love sprinkles so that was fun. So many choices, so little stomach and my insulin is no cheap, so I recommend giving them a try. I have had better donuts, but the options here are better than Dunkin and Tim Hortons. Well worth the experience. read more

Got the s'mores donut and it was so soft, fluffy, and delicious. I do wish they were served warm though. Also the parking situation would prevent me from coming here, it is so complicated to park at Lenox these days. The line can be out the door so be prepared. Limited seating out front. Quick service read more

Randy’s Donuts - Outside - Donuts Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Made a stop at Lenox and we intentionally decided to try these donuts since we were in the area. The line wasn't long. Maybe a 6 -8 min wait. Not too long. The lady was very courteous and helpful with all questions we had and explaining the differences in some donuts. Moving on...we tried some of the donuts and to be honest the lemon glazed and chocolate iced wasn't it. It just didn't taste too good. The chocolate had a weird taste. And the lemon, didn't taste fresh in addition to the flavor. The sprinkle was good. I'm writing this real time so I'm hesitant to even taste the glazed lol. I can say the blueberry doesn't look visually appealing but I'll stop right here bc it's not my donut. Im not in any position to rush back to the location to try something again but I won't count it out. read more

I just heard about Randy's Donuts today. They are based in California and this is their first venue on the East Coast. It is in what looks like a food truck in the parking lot of the Lenox Mall. (Just look for the giant inflatable donut!). Upon entering we were overwhelmed by the numerous choices available! You can't even see them all in the case; so they have a donut menu with colored pictures to choose from. I decided on a Crondy, (croissant donut, $4.00) and a lemon old-fashioned donut, $3.50. Both were good; but I especially enjoyed the Crondy. It was sweet and flaky! My sister had the red velvet cake donut, $4.50, and the butter crumb donut, $4.00. She thought the red velvet needed a little more frosting, but it was good. We all loved the butter crumb one. My daughter had the Nutella raised, $4.50, and she loved it! My husband had the maple bacon long john, also $4.50, and he loved it although he said it was "enough sugar for a horse!" Overall the service was fast and friendly, and they had all our choices available at about 11:00 on a Monday. It ended up costing us about $28 (including a tip,) for 6 donuts! Randy's Donuts are decadent and delicious ; but definitely more of a novelty or special occasion treat rather than a weekly donut shop stop. read more

Basically gourmet donuts that look like average donuts for the most part. The cheapest donut comes in at a steep $3, and scales up from there depending on how premium the donut is. The most expensive tier of donuts is $4.50. I guess I didn't come in mentally prepared for such steep prices because I admittedly faced a little sticker shock. A glazed donut here costs $3, while a glazed donut at a local donut store costs ~$1.50; so the real question then becomes - are these donuts /that/ good? While I only picked one donut to try, my conclusion is: yes and no. Price aside, the donut I got was good and a bit unique. I got the butter crumb glazed which was yummy! I love me a good yeast donut, and this one for sure was good. Sadly, it's so hard to drop almost $5 on a singular donut after tax. I would come back to try the crondy since that also seems unique, but due to the high price points, this will not be a regular spot for me. Located in the back of the Lenox Mall parking lot (the lot across the valet in front of the Nike store). Randy's is tucked in the back corner of the parking lot, and took over what used to be DaVinci Donuts. They also have their iconic inflatable donut visible from the street. Card only, no cash. read more

Worst old, greasy donuts ever! Why have a business that does not make donuts fresh onsite. They are made ahead of time and brought in. I used to live in Cali. ( where Randy's is from) There donuts were good. This is a pop up in a shipping container in the far flung corner of a parking lot! When I found it, I knew better. But gave it a shot! Gross, gross, gross. I guess if you were stoned out of your mind you might, and I mean might, think they were good! Ugh, nasty! read more

*Sigh* feels like I have been giving out a ton of 1 star reviews lately and that's not my goal so I will give 3 stars with this explanation: The donuts deserve 1 star but the service deserved 3/5 or 4 stars, so I will average to 3 stars. I am sorry if this is your first Randy's experience. This is not how the original California location tastes at all, but it is how ALL of the franchises seem to taste. The donut was old and the frosting seems like they burned the chocolate. If you have ever had the original Randy's, you know that their donuts don't ever taste old a d it's crazy how long you can have them at home before they do. They also dipped the chocolate in glaze first like Krispy Kreme (gross), it was not good at all. The donuts were so expensive, more than the original. The atmosphere is the same as the original, stand in line outside but that hits different at 90 degrees in the ATL sun instead of being breezy and minutes from the beach in LA. This is a "try once and wait til you land in L.A. to get again" situation. read more

I picked up a friend and handed her a chocolate-glazed donut from Randy's Donuts. She asked what it was, then immediately took a bite before I could answer. The shop sits on a small corner lot in the Lenox Mall parking area, facing Peachtree Street--easy to miss if you're not looking for it. I mentioned that people have been talking about the donuts lately. Mid-conversation, I noticed my friend smiling, with a bit of chocolate glaze on her bottom lip. No commentary needed. The donut was soft without being doughy, and the chocolate glaze was sweet but not heavy. Simple, well done. If you're near Lenox, it's an easy stop to justify. Highly recommend! read more

Passing through Buckhead today and stumbled on a gem: Randy's Donuts--yes, that iconic spot now gracing ATL near Lenox Mall. Alvin and Calvin, the friendly owners, were outside offering free donuts as a grand opening promo. Let me tell you, they didn't need to twist my arm. One bite in, and I was transported. That classic glazed? Pillowy, sweet, and just the right amount of nostalgic. Not only is the product fire, but the vibe was welcoming, warm, and full of energy.
