Donuts
Eli M.

The donuts here are very good and I recommend everyone to, to travel here if they would like to try them. But please god I took off one star because I'm on a diet and this place donuts are so massive it can fit two days worth, if you're strong and working out a lot.. avoid the sugar crash you get from this place. :) W place thought

THIS IS MY FAVORITE DONUT SPOT. Literally drove in a snow storm to get the donuts that how good they are. They are so fluffy and warm. You can even see the staff making the donuts. So fresh. Dont sleep on their coffee... so good

One-hundred-percent as good as people say it is - fluffy, fresh, warm, nonstop delicious doughnuts that are the best around in CT and Westchester and likely NYC. Love the chocolate buttercream the most with chocolate crumble on top, delicious vanilla bean too, but really every doughnut is top-notch and creative, and their daily new menu of flavors makes this spot irresistible. 5 stars!!!!

Part of me didn't want to write a review about how absolutely fantastic this place is because I want to continue to be able to show up at 11am in a Sunday and still have my pick of the litter on doughnuts lol On the real though, these doughnuts are ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! 10/10 no notes. There is no competition in CT on doughnuts because these took the cake. We absolutely loved the jelly filled and cinnamon crumble (can't remember the exact name). They were lighter than air and taste like they use the highest quality ingredients. The 2 of us almost crushed all 5 doughnuts alone and I have 0 regrets! Already planning my next trip!

My absolute favorite donut place of all time! Just look at the glaze on this Raspberry donut! Their flavors change daily so follow them on Instagram as well to see the flavors of the day. But you can't go wrong with their original Vanilla Bean glazed donut which is a staple in their lineup.

This place is always busy so make sure you go there early before they run out of doughnuts! Their doughnuts are really good, the portion is big enough to share and it's a good way to have a treat! :) they usually have different flavors depending on the week, but you can always check their instagram account before going to see what options they have available. They have a few indoor and outdoor seatings as well!

I'm from the west coast visiting my sister in Westport for Thanksgiving... I saw Blake Lively's posts raving about these doughnuts which looked so good that I had to try them. The atmosphere felt like you were in Martha Stewart's Sous Chef kitchen.. very cute and well decorated. You can see the pastry maestros in the back cooking and dipping hard at work. First impressions: The doughnuts look so amazing on the display window. They were still warm!! The texture of the doughnuts are quite dense and tastes like a dessert instead of a light fluffy doughnut. They weren't super sweet which was a good surprise. They remind me of Randy's Doughnuts from Los Angeles (you can now also fine these at Resorts World in Las Vegas). Rating based on today's flavors: Misfit - 4/5 Brown sugar - 4/5 Pumpkin Latte (I didn't try it but my sis said 4/5) Chocolate buttercream 3/5 Tiramisu 2/5 Worth trying if you like a less sweet, denser, chewy doughnut.

If you're a fan of fresh, delicious donuts, Rise Donuts in Wilton, CT, is a must-visit! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with the warm, sweet aroma of freshly fried donuts that are always fresh. The donuts themselves are simply outstanding, honestly some of the best I've ever had. The variety is incredible, with everything from classic glazed and cinnamon sugar to more unique options like coconut or a delicious apple fritter. The texture is perfect--crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. You can tell the ingredients are top-notch, and the flavors are rich without being overwhelming. I absolutely loved the Aztec cinnamon donut; the combination of sweet glaze and cinnamon bits is incredible. But the real standout is the apple fritter. It is truly the perfect balance of fresh and sweet. I never order apple fritters but I would get this as often as I possibly could if it were any closer to me. The store was so quaint and cute! Everything felt extremely clean and welcoming. The store had a nice big table where you could sit and enjoy some coffe with the delicious donuts and just sit amongst the amazing store. The staff is also extremely friendly and efficient, making the experience even better. Whether you're grabbing a quick breakfast or treating yourself to something special, Rise Donuts never disappoints. I can't wait to return and try even more of their creative offerings. Highly recommend this spot for any donut enthusiast!

Yum! Went this morning after hearing good things and we were in the area at 9:30 ish (Sunday). I was shocked that we got easy parking and there were only like 2 people in line! There were 6 donuts to pick from and they all sounded good. We got the Aztec cinnamon, the jam donut, brown butter vanilla and apple fritter. We ate the jam donut there at a big long table and it was really good! LOTS of jam but it didn't taste like too much. We also split the Aztec one which was much less sweet and it was still warm. We got an iced matcha with maple and an iced latte with vanilla syrup (both syrups were housemade). Eh I couldn't taste the syrups and the drinks were just okay. I could make better at home. I'd probably stick with just a cold brew next time. We didn't try the other 2 donuts yet but I'm sure they'll be good. Lots of people coming in and out today. I liked the ambiance, friendly and welcoming and the woman packing the donuts was quirky and cool. I listed to her describing the Pantone donut and her explanation made me want to try it but we had already been sitting eating our other donuts.

Misfit and Cinnamon Sugar

After eyeing these doughnuts on instagram for a while, we were so happy to finally get the chance to stop in! These doughnuts are worth the trip!! Be sure to check the menu on instagram before going to see what their flavors are for the day. We overheard a lot of customers expressing they were disappointed to hear they did not have a certain flavor, and the staff's response was to make sure to check their menu on instagram beforehand!

Best donuts I've ever had in my life. At minimum, you need to get the misfit and passion fruit. SO GOOD ANDTHE STAFF IS SO NICE

Apple fritter, brown butter glazed

Well.... It's worth the hype. We took a ride for the 8am open on Sunday morning. Highly recommend , these doughnuts sell out quick. By 8:01am they had to bring out a second tray of the signature Apple Fritter. Greeted by friendly faces in a small quaint cafe known for doughnuts but also can stay for a quick bite. We bought two of each flavor to try. Should have only bought one of each. They are heavy and you can be satisfied with a half. They are amazing !!! Hands down one of the best I have ever tried. Not greasy , fluffy, very tasty. Flavors are classic but so fresh. Can't choose which I loved most , toss up between the apple and the dark chocolate but the Raspberry is if you're in the Wilton area I would make the pit stop. ( be aware of the price tag though )

Best doughnuts in Wilton by far. Wait time is long, but that is because everyone likes it and waits in line.

Good donuts, gave low 4 stars you can't go wrong if looking for a donut. It's just not a 5 star. Had the donuts twice. No wow factor but ok.

Looking for a really good BEG with SPK? This is your place. The bagels are fresh and from NYC…read more They have everything a good deli should have for topping your bagel. And so much more. Friendly family run place. They have a few tables inside and outside. And lots of coffee choices. You're likely to see a local team post practice as well as the local police enjoying a break. (PS my suggestion, if the police are eating - quietly pay their bill. Same for firemen. Or any other first responder)

I was looking for a quick breakfast and stumbled on this hidden gem. It's tucked away, easy to miss…read morefrom the main road, but there's plenty of parking which is a big plus. Inside was very clean and well lit. The staff was actively cleaning, mopping, wiping tables, taking out trash. Always a good sign. There's a solid amount of seating too. We met Gabby at the counter and she was great. Funny, patient, welcoming, and genuinely easy to talk to. First impressions matter and she nailed it. I ordered a custom breakfast wrap with scrambled eggs, cheese, onions, spinach, and turkey bacon. Flavor-wise it was good and satisfying, but a little on the small side. I also grabbed two bottled drinks, a chocolate chip cookie, and a cup of mini muffins. The muffin cup only had about five or six small pieces. Total came to $28.99. That's where they lose a star for me. I get that it's Wilton, but it felt expensive for what we ordered. That said, the customer service was excellent, the staff was friendly, the space was clean, and the menu has a huge variety of food and desserts. Breakfast all day is a major win. Overall, a solid spot worth checking out. Just be prepared for higher prices.
