The donuts are good. They are more cake-like and dense compared to Dunkin' Donuts. 5280 is my husband's favorite place to get donuts because they are affordable. The shop is kinda strange to me. It's large and open but most of the space is not being utilized. It appears to be one large room. I could not see a back area or doors leading to another area. There's a couple tables to eat at and random storage in the same room. Behind the counter all I could see is a microwave and toaster. So, I'm just wondering how they make/bake the donuts??? Also, the furniture (tables and chairs) are basic and plastic. It just doesn't seem like they invested a lot into the interior. It is also carpeted, which is odd for a cafe. Overall, it's not really somewhere guests would want to stay and hang out. The employees were very nice and helpful. There is a kids area with small table and chairs and some games, puzzles etc. read more

Enjoyed our first trip to 5280 Donuts! We were feeding a crowd and the staff was so friendly and patient while we chose something for everyone. They have all the classics of a donut shop and the flavor was great on everything we tried! This isn't a place for all the out of the box, new types of donuts but what they have, they sure do well. We will definitely be back for more-looking forward to trying even more of their donuts! read more

The 5280 Donuts - Apple fritter, pink sprinkles, raised glazed, chocolate raised, maple raised, cinnamon rolls, and twists - Donuts Near Me - Broomfield, Colorado

The best donuts around! They are not too sweet like Lamar's. They are always good and the staff is polite and helpful. I like that some of the favorites like the apple fritter and cinnamon roll you can get in a smaller version if you'd like. read more

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm donuts galore!!! So scrumptious and dangerous, who can ever resist these unhealthily morning desserts!!! Lol Gosh, I am just so happy we stopped here to try it out! This is a very good danger spot for yummy donuts for sure! I bought 18 donuts to take with me to a hangout with the family. I was feeling a bit piggy, oink, oink, lol, and had 4 donuts! I lost control of my hands and my stomach forced me to eat them! Lol I mentally was crying because I got defeated by my stomach! I had a strawberry, a glazed, an apple fritter, and cinnamon. Ouch! That hurt to verbally confess and take ownership of what happened!!! Lol Mmmmm, if you wanna feel like I did, I highly recommend stopping by one of their locations and trying them out! I am a fan and will be returning in the future. read more

Been to this place twice and both times I have been here not a very good selection of donuts left!. Very disappointing. And mind you both times were in the morning at 9 am and 10 am I have went. Look I get they're only open til 1:00 pm but you know people will be going to your establishment from the time you open to almost closing why wouldn't you have more of a bigger of selection of donuts; besides the small selection that have been sitting there for a couple of hours. I understand if it was already 12 o'clock and no big selection of donuts but it wasn't. read more

They have the best donuts and the staff are very friendly. We've been coming here for years.

Probably some of the best donuts I've had in a long time. With a good cup of coffee, they melt in your mouth. Highly recommend them.

I feel like I have very specific memories about what a doughnut (donut?) should taste like. I remember being a kid living in Maryland and having Dunkin Donuts for the first time. The donut was soft, airy, sweet, and paired perfectly with a nice cold glass of milk. As I grew up I would find that a place like Yum Yum Donuts in California was the type of donut for me. A late night donut that was being cranked out at whatever time of the day and represented that soft dough with just the right amount of bite to it. Krispy Kreme was something that everyone ate for awhile and sometimes I think about getting an original glazed from there but I never really CRAVE it anymore. Those donuts feel like comparing American cheese to real cheese, it is just oil shaped to be an object resembling something. Anyway, as I got older I realized that donuts just didn't taste the same. Dunkin now tastes like the best grocery store donuts you can buy. Grocery store donuts aren't donuts. Places like Lamar's and Voodoo get hyped but they both taste kind of stale to me (Voodoo more so). Maybe donuts are a thing for children or maybe the modern era just hasn't been kind to donuts. Enter 5280 Donuts My first bite from a donut here immediately brought me back to what my memory of a donut should be (realistically, this probably means that they are better than any donut I had as a kid because my kid palate was...probably dumb). They have every classic little donut shop option you could want as far as flavor goes. Their apple fritter seems like their special offering. I wasn't an apple fritter guy before this place and now I get it almost every time. No matter if you like cake donuts or yeast doughnuts you will make the right choice here. Also, it should be said that I see the same people working there and they are all very nice. The main lady (maybe the owner or manager) is always so sweet. If this place ever closed down or I moved away, I would just give up donuts. This is the place for me and my desire for donuts. These are the donuts of delicious memories. read more

Best donuts we've had in Denver!! Deliciously baked, large variety and friendly staff. The inside is also rly cute to sit in and play games.

These are some of the best donut holes and chocolate cake donuts you'll find in the city! I have to admit, I've had a love/dislike (hate would be too much) relationship with this place. Don't get me wrong, the donuts are delicious and the staff/service are very friendly and I definitely recommend. them very highly. My niece found this place a few years ago when she and her family visited and from then on, it has been my goto place as most other donut shops don't have very good donut holes (either they are cake or too doughy). This place gets it right with fluffy dough and light icing. Plus I really like their chocolate cake donuts as well as the variety of donuts. Now for the not so good - take this with a grain of salt as this is more me than the shop. They are a small business with the goal of selling out daily and thus if you don't go early enough - say before 11, they may be out of your favorite donuts - remember my note of them being really good? This has happened more than a few times so if you don't want to miss out, make sure to pick them up earlier than I normally do. read more

This is my go-to place for donuts. Great tasting and great selection. Super nice people.

There donuts are the best in Colorado. This is something we as a do family is trying to find the best local donut stores when we are traveling as youth sports has taken around the US. We just happen to have one of the best in the country in our backyard, well 20 minutes from Erie. This is about the donuts, not the staff, location, etc. When doing reviews I try to get the same thing, they are apple fritter, raised maple, raised chocolate, cinnamon roll or twist. I'm not a fan of cake donuts with the exception of old fashions. This donuts are outstanding, the raise ones are light and airy, not heavy like the ones at the grocery stores. The fritter is not overly greasy like some, or dried out. Again the best donuts in Colorado, and up there in the country. This is an old school tradition donut store, so you will not see your new crazy themed donuts, but if they did... read more

The selection wasn't much....which can only mean one thing. It's a popular place and I need to get there sooner next time. The items we got were delicious. The blueberry I wish was more blueberry flavored but it was still good. Will come back again. read more

Amazing donuts! I'm used to the places I used to go in Dallas but these donuts are just as good if not better! Their Boston Cream filling is so tasty.

Hands down the best donut. I generally like the glazed donuts and old fashioned. I do try some of the other styles and they've all been great. read more

Great donuts and coffee! Located in a pretty deserted strip mall, but I found these fresh donuts while waiting for a car service. I'll bring my daughter back for a donut or 2. read more

Great donuts! The blueberry cake donut was to die for and I usually don't care for cake donuts that much. Will definitely be back!

Me likes a great doughnut and 5280 has great donuts! Listen up folks, since I moved here from New Orleans I have been in search of a great doughnut. There was a place there that had unbelievable doughnuts, and I have to say that 5280 has come very close to my place in NOLA. First of all, the apple fritters are delicious! They have delightful chunks of apple, cinnamon, and best of all they are not dry! The pershing doughnut is my next favorite. It is melt in your mouth deliciousness. I like to start from the middle and work my way out! The prices are reasonable and all of the doughnuts we have sampled are wonderful. If you are craving a doughnut, this is the place to go! read more

Excellent donuts, friendly service. What more do you need?! Nothing fancy, just a simple little shop. Came in around 9 on a Saturday and the donuts were nice and fresh, even though they are made at their other location in Englewood. read more

We are heading NORTH, while on route, we visited this Donut shop on Highway 287. I guess when we came in here, we managed to get in before the BIG Crowd after us. That recent visit was on Sunday, April 6th 2014. Time was about 10:45hrs ish. My friend decide to order one of the Sugar Donut, and HOT Coffee, while I opt to purchase 1 Dozen TO GO ($7.99). From the conversations, I had with one of the staffs, she told me she is originally from Indonesia. I decide to eat one of the Sugar Donut. OMG! The Sugar Donut is SUPER-LIGHT, Fluffy and Delicious... Man, its like eating cotton-candy, and it just melts in my mouth. Definitely a hidden gem in this part of neighborhood and DEFINTELY Worth returning when needed. When I brought home those Donuts, and shared them with Hubs, Hubs said it was just A-OK. I think the key to eating these Donuts, is right after you purchased them from this establishment. Enjoy them, dine in at this Donut shop itself. From what I could recall we had these : * Chocolate Glazed with Chopped Peanuts * Blueberry * Reeses Peanut Butter Chips with Vanilla Donut * Reeses Peanut Butter Chips Chocolate Donut * 2 Super-Fine Sugar * Chocolate Sprinkles * 2 Chocolate Glazed * Donut stuffed with Lemon Cream * 2 Strawberry Glazed I like the Super-Fine Sugar Donuts the best, while the rest which are SOFT Donuts, are ALL tasty. My least favorite is the Blueberry, perhaps its the DENSE KIND Of Donut, aka like Cake Donuts. COME EARLY for the Variety they offer before they SOLD OUT! They are opened EVERYDAY, from 6am till 2pm.

I managed to make it to this wonderful establishment right before the corona virus temporarily (hopefully) shut them down. I went at about 7am on a Saturday, and I was greeted immediately by a kind woman behind the counter. We tried half a dozen of the most beautiful donuts I've seen in a long time. They were all sweet, fried perfection and made me feel very nostalgic. My favorite were the apple fritters, which she makes in a version that does not necessitate an up-charge. I can't wait to return for some breakfast treats. read more

Stopped here on the way into work to pickup some donuts for the office. Price was fair and seemed to be a crowd pleaser as there were hardly any left by mid morning. They have a good selection to choose from and we're fresh. Would definitely recommend in the future, the only negative is the parking is a little cramped. read more

When I got there only a few donuts were left. The glazed was okay, nothing special. I don't get the high rating. read more

The 5280 Donuts - Not much selection - Donuts Near Me - Broomfield, Colorado

Definitely the tastiest donuts around. Not too sweet (that's the highest Asian compliment for a dessert!), and the perfect texture. The ladies are friendly, and the service is efficient. read more

This place looks like a zero from the outside, and when you go in, it looks like a cross between a greasy spoon in the middle of nowhere, USA, and a janitor's closet at a mid-sized airport. These are the best donuts I have ever had. They are worth getting up early in the morning for, they are universally excellent. Staff is friendly, and there is a sense of community with regulars, but if you are new you are also greeted and treated warmly. Donuts are cheap as chips. This is the only place to get donuts in Colorado. read more

The donuts are delicious and exactly what I would expect from a small local donut shop. The space seems very big for a donut shop, which is perhaps why some of the space is used as storage. If you're looking for a fancy donut spot, this is not for you. I could see how some people would be turned off by the look and open storage (visible in the back of the store but where customers wouldn't walk), but in terms of service and quality, it was great. The only downside I suppose would be that the "box coffee" was fairly expensive. The donut prices however were reasonable. read more

I gave this place a second chance based on their yelp score. Their cake donuts and old-fashioned donuts (which are my favorite) are not very good, however their chocolate glazed donuts are absolutely delicious. I am still on the fence about this place because the inside is not very clean and the other half of their space is filled with random storage. read more

The 5280 Donuts - Chocolate glazed on top, delicious - Donuts Near Me - Broomfield, Colorado

This is a great local donut shop with amazing donuts. They are fresh and not oily. The best apple fritters. Owners is often then working the counter on weekends when we've been there and is very kind. read more

Donuts are below average and the workers are some of the rudest. They don't acknowledge you even if you leave them a $3 tip on an $8 order. When WE, said, "thank you have a good day", they not only didn't respond, they didn't even look at us and kept talking like we weren't even there. No thank you. Nothing. I will never go back here and I've stopped about 5-6 of my friends and family from wasting their money there too. I've made sure to spread the word that although supporting local business is a must, 5280 donuts is one local business I wouldn't mind if it closed. Maybe it'd make room for a business with better quality products and better qualified people who have more experience in customer service etiquette... read more

If I was a local, I think I'd come here frequently! The doughnuts are soft, fresh and so good. Prices are fair and I think if Covid weren't going on it would be fun to sit and eat there. They have board games etc. read more

My boyfriend's family came over one Sunday morning and we cooked some major bbq and what's more than having dessert waiting after some massive ribs? Donuts? Duh! But not just any doughnuts that may have been sitting for hours. These sweet pastries are freshly made and the dough is divine in taste. They have some wonderful apple fritters, splendid bear claws and overall the best glazed. We loved the decor of the outer box and officially want more of this sweet, doughnut shop. Overall the best occasion--- not just the morning to grab a whole box of these. read more

Very moist donuts and very flavorful. I thought looking at them it would be the typical dry donut with little flavor and loads of sugary topping, but it actually was a good tasting donut. The ladies were quick and efficient and they were almost out of donuts by 10am. Popular place! read more
