    When a place that sells donuts says they are the #1 Rated Donuts In The World...you stop in and try the #1 donuts in the world. Wifey and I stopped in here after a wine tasting in the area (sort of dessert after trying dessert wines). When we walked in I asked the person behind the counter which donut was the "the one" and they tried pushing the "they're all great" but we went with their simple glazed and it was really, really good. Best in the world?? Impossible to say, but probably not. But let me say again, this donut was really good - and if given the chance I'd order two more!

    I'm afraid to say that until now I hadn't tried a good vegan ice cream. Many varieties I've tried just didn't have the formula correct but that problem has been solved by Scoop 'n Dough. I had the opportunity to try a couple flavors but settles on the black sesame and it evoked the flavor and texture of OG dairy ice cream. A truly pleasant surprise. I'm remiss to have not tried the best donuts in the world but next time I won't make the same mistake!

    Scoop 'n Dough is a must-try place! As a vegan, sweets and pastries don't come around often, so I was thrilled to find this place on Yelp. I visited the store Sunday afternoon, it is a small and brightly lit area, with a kitchen in the back and display cabinets in the front. Upon entering, I was greeted warmly by the staff, who promptly took my order and started preparing it. The selection is incredible - all vegan! The donuts were the thickest I've ever seen, and the ice cream options were amazing. My mission was to get donuts since we were leaving early the next morning for Porto. With over a dozen different styles to choose from, I ended up with two Madagascar Vanilla glazed, one raspberry (red berry) with cream glaze and blueberry filling, and one Chocolate glaze with Chocolate Ganesh filling. These donuts are to die for! The yeast-raised donuts are about 2 to 3 inches tall, and the fillings and glazes are bursting with flavor. They're not too sweet, and you can immediately tell what flavors they have. They were the best donuts I've ever had, hands down. I can't wait to go back to Lisbon and try more of these delicious treats!

    Omg we were so thrilled to find this vegan place. They have amazing donuts, delicious ice cream and scrumptious macarons. I have had my fair share of vegan desserts and the donuts here are by far the best vegan dessert I have ever had!!! We ordered the raspberry & vanilla, salted caramel, apple crumble and bannofie pie donuts. We also ordered a box of 6 macarons and coconut & passion fruit ice cream. They were all delicious!!! We enjoyed it so much we came back for a second round our last day in Cascais. My favorite is the raspberry vanilla donut. Treat yourself and order one of everything lol. You won't regret it.

    I came here because all of their desserts are vegan. We got four donuts, which included a chocolate, lemon, berry, and caramel doughnuts. I also got the vanilla ice cream. It all tasted amazing. They have a little bit of outdoor seating. The guy who helped us was nice and friendly. I would definitely return for their donuts in particular.

    After a long day exploring Lisbon their ice cream is lite and refreshing and perfect dessert for the end of day. We got the mango lassi and hazelnut ice cream which just hit the spot. Would recommend to others!

    Was so surprised to see a vegan donut and ice cream place near the Rossio Square! We went later at night so unfortunately the donuts weren't really available. Note to self: go early! A lot of the ice cream was gone too, but we were able to try some of it. My husband got the coffee flavor and I got the cookies 'n' cream. It was also voted as one of the best spots in 2021 and I can see why! I'm so glad there are options there for vegetarian and vegan places for us! I hope I can visit Portugal again one day and hope I can go back so that during the day time I can try their donuts!

    According to a list I cannot locate on the Internet, Scoop n Dough was allegedly voted - by someone or some site - as the best donut purveyor in the world. Is it delicious? Absolutely! Is it better than crosstown rival Crush Donuts? Not even close! But it's good enough if you're near Rossio Plaza. Most donuts are sold out by the afternoon, so don't delay! Scoop n Dough has a great raspberry donut filled with cream and topped with a rich raspberry frosting and bits of real fruit. The layered dough is wonderfully chewy. They also serve a lovely lemon sorbet. Lisbon's Crush Donuts might actually be the world's best donut, in my humble opinion, while Scoop n Dough is certainly not. However, I do think I understand why tourists voted this the best dessert spot in Lisbon on TripAdvisor. It's located in a touristy area while fewer people make it to either Crush location or the legendary bakery Pastéis de Belém, both of which are far superior. Scoop n Dough got the "scoop" on better eateries thanks to its prime location, and it's a worthy stop. But it isn't the best.

    OMG, vegan donuts and ice cream!!! Scoop 'n Dough is a short 10-minute walk from our vacation apartment in the Barrio-Alto, which is both a good thing and a bad-thing: Good, in that they make the best doughnuts (vegan or not!) around; Bad, in that the temptation is way too close!!! (I'm gonna look like a doughnut if I keep eating 'em!! Lol!!) These aren't the cheapest of fried-dough; but, I've no doubt they're the best tasting! All the fancy ones are terrific, but my fave is the simple Madagascar vanilla-glazed ones. All their doughnuts are extra-large, as well. I'm not much of an ice cream eater; however, I had a cup of their dark chocolate one and, Oh-Boy!, it was scrumptious!!! The shop is located in a prime spot near a Broadway-like theater and the touristy Rossio plaza, so they tend to sell-out fast. Sadly, they don't open early (at 11:00a), so I suggest picking-up some of these doughy jewels early to take home for your morning coffee. If you love doughnuts, RUN don't walk to Scoop 'n Dough, pronto!!! :D

    Doughnuts and ice cream together is a deadly combination. Scoop 'n Dough brings the business and their products are delicious. So, I recommend getting a doughnut with some black sesame ice cream on top. This will give you more vitality, especially on a hot day.

    Yum‼ Vegan ice cream is amazing. This ice cream did not lack in flavor at all. All we needed was a scoop because of its richness. The atmosphere was small but cute and they workers were very friendly. We paid with cash and they actually have a machine so there isn't a hand to hand transaction which I thought was dope. We didn't try the doughnuts but from the looks of them I'm they are amazing. Also, you are allowed to sample before you actually make you decision which was great since it is so rare to do now of days. Would definitely love to come back and try more flavors.

    These doughnuts are heaven sent. Amazing vegan options. Did I mention 100% vegan!! Portugal has my heart for vegan finds. I love Lisbon!

    So here's the interesting thing - this was one of *many* places to get pastel de nata that made to…read moremultiple lists of places you had to stop, which meant I obviously had to stop at as many of them as possible over the course of the couple weeks I was in Portugal, a couple months ago, in both Porto and Lisbon (also to a lesser extent, Coimbra). This means I can now say who made them best, and more importantly, why. The interesting thing is, I didn't think the pastel de nata here were particularly great, on any dimension - fairly flimsy, doughy crust, with a pudding-like, drippy filling that was too sweet and not quite eggy enough. Don't get me wrong, I'd still eat them any time someone offered, they were still tasty, you just have a ton of options nearby, some of them notably better than the ones here. I also tried one of their fancy-looking cookies, which definitely looked fancier than it tasted. Was just a cookie. Dessert-wise I was unimpressed. They were also always fairly busy, which made ordering feel a bit rushed. So why am I still giving this bakery 5 stars, and why did I come back here a couple more times, including to get food to-go the morning we left, to get food to take on the plane with us? For exactly one reason, and it's a weird one: oddly enough, the samosas here are the best samosas I've ever had, and by a wide margin. You'd think the best samosas ever would come from an Indian restaurant or bakery, but nope, they're here. The other small savory food items we tried were also pretty good, but the samosas are the juiciest, meatiest, most perfectly bursting with spices samosas I've had. Who knew? They also had pretty solid espresso and pretty solid free-squeezed orange juice, but those aren't hard to find in Portugal (I miss seeing inexpensive fresh squeezed OJ all over the city... especially *truly* fresh squeezed, to order, from whole oranges. Portuguese OJ definitely was the best. Though obviously not *better* than other places you can get the same thing around - probably indeed the same oranges. Definitely better than anywhere you can get fresh OJ for a few bucks in the US, though, if you can find such a place. :p)

    The perfect rest stop in between exploring. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which…read moremade the experience even sweeter. I tried the African coconut cake and the lemon éclair--both were delicious, perfectly balanced, and clearly made with care. A must-stop spot if you're craving great pastries and warm service.
