These are my favorite donuts, although I do think the line is way too long some days they do move as quickly as they can once they open up. So far my favorite flavors at this place have been tiramisu, strawberry, mango lassi, blueberry, etc. I love that they have new and unique flavors ever couple of weeks. If it wasn't so far away I would go more often. I've also tried their drinks there and I like the strawberry milk one, they have a cute seating area to sit and enjoy your treats. read more

The Flour Box - Mango lassi and brownie donut - Bakeries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I feel like I'm about to giveaway a big secret, but here it goes. While everyone comes for the donuts, it's the cheesecake and brownies that CANNOT be missed. We arrived around 11:30 and there was a long line around the block. Although the sign said that there was still 150 donuts, by the time we got to the front, they were all sold out. We were a sad, but figured we'd stood in line for a reason so it'd at least be worth grabbing drinks. We didn't realize they also had the cheesecake and brownies (along with a kimchi dip). The basque cheesecake was easily one of the best cheesecakes I've ever had. It was so creamy in the center with a delicious burnt top crust. Wow! The brownies were also so good. The brownies had a nice saltiness to them and were rich and incredible. My friends who frequent the Flour Box often actually said that they thought that the cheesecake and brownies were better than the donuts. Maybe these are just their hidden secret. We also had some great drinks. I ordered a black sesame steamer (no caffeine) and it was so yummy. A nice decaf option, while they also have some great caffeinated options like matcha. The Flour Box has a big outdoor space with lots of picnic tables to enjoy your treats! read more

Seriously delicious donuts! Totally worth the wait. We came Friday morning around 9:20am before they opened and had our order in hand by 10:15am. Definitely worth going before they open to avoid waiting too long in line and to ensure you get what you want before they sell out! This week they had their cookies and cream donut and a salmon lox donut which we ordered. We also got one cinnamon roll, brownie, strawberry milk and an iced latte. Everything was so good and tasted fresh! The salmon lox donut surprised me but I really liked it. They have a lot of seating available, both inside and outside. The drinks were delicious, the cinnamon roll had the perfect icing to dough ratio, and the brownie was fudgy and sweet. read more

Excellent, creative donuts. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in the consistency of each one. Their drinks are also great, with the strawberry milk being a delicious and nostalgic favorite of mine. Somehow, even with the number of customers, service feels personal and there's always a place to sit. No matter when you go, the line will typically be no less than an hour. This is more excusable in the launch phase, but with the bakery being open for a few years now, it's probably time to figure out a preordering system. I get the sense the wait time is a bit of a pride point for them, since the one week there wasn't a major line, they posted on Instagram about a perceived loss of interest. It's not really normal for even the best places to have this kind of line, and it comes across as a bit disrespectful of customer's time. read more

The Flour Box - 4/26 donuts + cinnamon roll - Bakeries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Came here because my little brother had been dying to try it since he moved to the Seattle area. We queued up in a line that extended out the door and down the sidewalk on a Friday afternoon, hoping there would be three of each doughnut left by the time we got to the register. As we waited, an employee came out with a sandwich board to announce how many total doughnuts they had left for the day. This was both super helpful and very nerve-racking, as we had been ostensibly presented with a countdown. After about 20-or-so minutes waiting, we got a dozen doughnuts (3 of each flavor), selling out the cold brew option for the day (which they announced out loud to the rest of the line). We ate some of our bounty on the patio, and I was surprised at how large their seating area is for a bakery. All of the flavors, which change weekly, were stellar. I also highly recommend trying a drink from their creative (and seasonal) menu. We had a bunch of doughnuts left to share with family, who also absolutely loved them (especially the pistachio and cold brew). My little brother got a cookie and said it was delicious too. Definitely recommend this cute bakery for a treat (or 12). Just show up early to get in line. read more

How does Pamela do it? Every time my friend and I visit Flour Box, we're always left awestruck by the donuts. Often, the more unconventional flavors - despite our initial hesitation-end up being our favorite. Waiting nearly an hour for donuts sounds ridiculous. Trust me, I'm well aware, but the Flour Box is completely worth it. There's no better way to start your weekend than with donuts, designed with the perfect ratio of dough and cream filling. The dough alone is incredible, each bite is so soft and chewy you might as well be eating a cloud. And of course, I have to give a shoutout to fillings. Not only do the flavors pair well together, I appreciate how the sweetness is subtle and never overpowers. You can just tell everything was made in-house from the freshness of the baked goods. Highly recommend getting in line an hour before opening for a good chance of locking down a box and their equally delicious cinnamon roll. Flour Box usually sells out around noon. They also serve coffee if you're not a morning person! Don't let the line scare you, there's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating! Honestly, the Flour Box team deserves a bottle of Henny weekly. read more

For some people, waiting 60+ minutes for donuts is the last thing they'd want to do. But for anyone with the patience and a sweet tooth, I highly recommend visiting. This place is only open for a limited hours Thurs - Sun but usually sells out of donuts earlier. These aren't your typical donuts or flavors. They are handcrafted to perfection daily and change flavors biweekly. And now, I have finally made the time to review this place. For last week's lineup, we ordered: the honey lavender, lemon lime curd and fruity pebbles. We also got two drinks & cinnamon rolls (not pictured). Wow to all of them! The fills aren't too sweet and just melt in your mouth. The cinnamon rolls are new (do not recall seeing them the last few yrs) and were absolutely amazing. The cinnamon roll was moist & the frosting was just the right amount leaving this buttery bite of deliciousness in your mouth. Honorable mentions of past flavors: crème brûlée, strawberry cream, and matcha cream. There's a good amount of seating to enjoy your pastries and drinks with. It's beautiful with a variety of seating that meets your comfort level. I'll be honest, the line is the worst part about this place. To combat this, I try to arrive at 8:30am on a Saturday. They open at 10am and it'll take time to get through people, but if the wait is 90+ mins, I'd rather have a high probability of getting the donuts I want than coming here to wait and finding out they will sell out of what you want. I also HIGHLY recommend following their instagram @theflourboxseattle! Pamela does a great job at communicating updates of how many donuts are left, wait times & anything else that suddenly comes up which is very helpful in planning. read more

I've heard so much about this place--how the donuts sell out before 11am and the line is always long. So when I happened to be driving nearby around 11:00am, I figured I'd finally check it out to see if it really lives up to the hype. And yep--there was still a long line. Right as I joined, a staff member came out with a sign that said "less than 500 donuts left today." I had time, so I decided to go for it. Today's flavors were Honey Lavender, Lemon Lime Curd, Chocolate Brownie, and Fruity Pebbles. Since it was my first time finally making it in, I had to get one of each. I also grabbed their popular Alpine Brew coffee. While I was at it, I noticed a cheesecake and salted caramel bar in the case and figured... might as well. Who knows when I'll wait in line again? The space itself is bright and charming, with patio seating and lots of plants giving it a welcoming vibe. The barn-style garage doors add a unique touch and give it that "Seattle hidden gem" feel. The seating, though, isn't super cozy--it definitely feels more like a grab-and-go spot. Staff are used to indecisive customers and the line moves steadily. If your phone's charged, the wait doesn't feel too bad. It took me until about 11:45 to finally sit down with my order, drink included. It's also really thoughtful of them to offer gloves - these donuts are stuffed and beautifully filled, and it gets messy fast when you take that first bite. The gloves help you enjoy it without ruining the fluffy texture or getting sticky. First up: the Alpine Brew. This was my favorite part of the visit! The rosemary and sage flavors were super unique and gave the coffee this calm, earthy, almost meditative vibe. I'd come back just for this drink. For the donuts: Honey Lavender: Mildly sweet with a very strong lavender kick. The floral aroma was intense, but I actually loved it. Lemon Lime Curd: Tart and citrusy, but a bit too sweet for my taste--I was hoping for more tartness. Dough texture: Slightly chewy, which I didn't mind, but I was kind of expecting a fluffier, Hawaiian malasada-style dough. Still, it's definitely fresh and made in-house daily--you can taste the difference, especially if you take it home. Salted Caramel Brownie: A surprise winner. I'm not a huge brownie fan, mostly because I don't love the sticky texture, but this one was chewy without being clingy to your teeth. Really well balanced. Overall thoughts: I think I went in with really high expectations based on the hype. While everything was good, I'm not sure I'd wait in line again just for the donuts. But the coffee? 100% worth a return visit. read more

Was very excited to finally try this place after seeing all the hype over social media. We went around 10:30AM on a Friday and the line was about an hour along. Employees were friendly and offered us a puppaccino for our dog, which was so kind! I'm usually not a donut person, but enjoyed these donuts. They have new alternating flavors every week. The brioche dough was very light and fluffy, and the lemon lime was my favorite out of the selections for this week. Loved the tartness of the filling, and the subtle sweetness added a nice touch. The chocolate brownie filling was also nice and light, but the brownie piece on top was overly salty in my opinion. The honey lavender had lavender notes that were too overpowering for me, and I usually enjoy honey lavender flavored food/drinks. Would've tried their coffee if we weren't planning on visiting 3 other coffee shops that afternoon. Overall, good experience, but don't think I'd wait in the long lines too often. read more

Seriously worth the wait. I came here about 30 minutes before opening on a Friday and got all the flavors I wanted. The dough is so light and fluffy and the filling is always amazing. I came on a Friday at 1ish a separate time and there was very little left and was able to try a savory flavor as well and it was amazing. Their drinks are also really good and I like how there is a patio area for you to hang out and enjoy your donuts in! read more

I am SUCH a fan of this place. For the last few years I've come here every other month or so to try new flavors and stand in line to chat with a good friend. Make no mistake, the line is long, but it goes by quickly because you know what you're getting in return is SO worth it. Whether it's their savory Everything Salmon or their sweet Hokey Pokey, everything I've tried here is top notch and supports the locals. I will continue to come here and wait for the best donuts I've ever tasted. HUGE thank you to The Flour Box team - you guys are awesome at what you do. read more

The donuts are absolutely everything that everyone says they are. I have probably tried 8-10 varieties, including the savory ones, and all of them are rave worthy. I'm probably going to regret saying this, but absolutely do not sleep on the brownies. A renowned brownie expert calls them the world's finest, not just Seattle but the entire world! read more

Local specialty bakery with unique seasonal flavors and delicious drinks. Every time I get my hands on their baked goods I know it's going to be good because of the integrity and intention that the owner and her staff have for the products they put out. I follow them on IG and I've seen them post about their dough not meeting their standards so instead of putting out a mediocre product to make profit back they will let their customers know they will not have as many donuts for sale as expected since there was a a mishap with the dough. Check their menu for the flavors of the week but definitely get your hands on some strawberry milk, it is so fresh and velvety, I literally need a gallon to take home! read more

Everything a donut should be! The filling is so fluffy and light. They have rotating seasonal flavors and something for everyone. We arrived about 30mins before opening on a Saturday and there was already a long line forming. There's some indoor seating and covered outdoor seating that gets pretty chilly if you've already been waiting out in the cold for awhile. In total, we waited about 1.5hrs for our donuts. They're definitely worth a try, but I would recommend visiting on a weekday if you can. read more

I'm a huge fan of donuts so I was super excited to try Donut Box and let me tell you, this did not disappoint at all. I've tried a lot of donut spots overall but Donut Box may be the best I've ever had! When I went, the 4 flavors they offered were salted beer caramel, Hokey Pokey, fruity pebbles, and salted pistachio. All 4 of these flavors were really unique but honestly so amazing. Alongside this, the donut itself tasted so fresh and the texture of them had something I can't point my finger to, but made it stand out from any other donut place. Overall, 10/10 would recommend coming here. The one thing you have to prepared for here is the long line. I came here 15 minutes after opening on a Friday and still had to wait 45 minutes. Although this is long, I'd say it's worth it given the quality of the donuts. The service here is friendly and the ambiance is really nice as it's very bright and aesthetically pleasing. There was plenty of seats when I went, however, it seems like most people take their orders to go. Overall, I'm glad to have tried Flour Box and would definitely be back if I'm visiting Seattle again. read more

Stopped by around 11 AM on a Friday and waited about 10 minutes--super manageable! My friend and I each got a box of their biweekly flavors: sweet taro, red bean cream, hojicha, and mandarin cream. I also tried the jasmine milk tea. The donuts came out quickly, and while they were all sweet, the sweet taro was my favorite. Red bean cream and hojicha were good, but the mandarin cream was my least favorite. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy the jasmine milk tea--it was overwhelmingly sweet and tasted like liquid diabetes, and I forgot to ask for less sugar and ice (if that's even an option). Do not get this drink if you aren't an insane sweet tooth. Even after all the ice melted, it was still undrinkable. I'd return if there's a flavor I'm excited about trying! read more

I visited the Flour Box last week. They change their rotation of flavors about every 10 days. Got there 15 minutes before opening but still waited an hour in line. They had someone come by everyone in line and get a count of the number of donuts each person was planning on ordering to get an idea of when donuts would sell out. I liked that concept, it would help people know the availability of the donuts before getting into line and waiting an hour to find them sold out. There was a lot of sitting area inside, the ambiance was quiet and peaceful. As for the donuts themselves, they were very light and tear-apart fluffy. The cream inside was not too sweet and I ate the entire thing without it feeling too heavy or overly sweet. I took a star off this review because I believe that no place should be worth waiting an hour in line for and I felt the price didn't compare to the size. I felt they were quite small compared to what I've seen in pictures. Not sure if they've gotten smaller from before or if they've always been this size. The drinks selection is pretty good as well as the other pastries they sell. Overall, I would still recommend this place to anyone looking for good quality brioche donuts and wouldn't mind spending the better part of their morning waiting in line. read more

These donuts were so good and have the most unique flavors! I also like how the menu changes every two weeks to try more flavors. My favorite flavor for this menu is Black Sesame. It is so creamy and topped with their homemade sesame brittle. For sour enthusiasts, try the Yuzu Curd and for savory tasters, try Kimchi Everything. The line moves fast and there is a wide seating space. From the donuts to the ambience, it is very aesthetically pleasing. read more

There's not much to add here. Been here a few times already and it's worth the wait, anywhere from 10-60 minutes. If you arrive at 11.30am there's a sweet spot of less time in the line and they usually seem to have availability of flavors. The coffee and non-coffee drinks are also well thought out. We got the gianduja and orange latte specials. Since the flavors change every 2 weeks, you can keep coming back at that frequency! The patio seating is heated and covered and really spacious. Great for kids to hang out too! read more

Delicious donuts! Fresh exciting flavors. They soft and pillowy with a dusting sugar. Probably didn't need as much sugar but I don't like too sweet. The cream fillings were unique and i really enjoyed them. The Yuzu curd was my favorite. Service was efficient. Wish the line moved faster, but the line went around the corner. They were very communicative as to how many donuts were available. The shop bright and airy and lots of seating. I may make this stop based on their rotating menu. read more

The flavor rotation is perhaps what set this place apart. Really wish they can set up more cash registers so the line goes faster. The line is 2 hours long, so recommend coming here before opening.

"The Flour Box never disappoints" - that's what I tell my friends who asks for recommendations when visiting Seattle. If you don't want to wait for too long, follow their IG to get updates. The line hasn't been long since the weather has been getting colder. I've been here 5+ times, and have tried many flavors plus zucchini bread, cheesecake, and drinks. My personal favorites include durian (special orders only), taro, hojicha, matcha, and creme brulee. My go-to drinks on cold days are hot Oat-chata and Gen-matcha latte, and I love strawberry milk (hint of mint) for the summer. read more

I have a confession to make. I have never set foot in The Flour Box. But every once in a while, my wife chooses to brave the crowd and bring back a box of unthinkably good donuts. They are fluffy. They are filled with magic. And somehow, they are not the focus of my review. Instead, I want to spotlight the fudge brownie. At first, I balk at the size. Where did the other half go? Then I take a bite and understand. This is a chocolatey controlled substance with a touch of maldon sea salt. Somehow, only nine people have reviewed it on Yelp. And I'm slightly paranoid it will go away. If my wife is reading this, thank you for all the brownies you have brought me from The Flour Box. read more

I would consider flourbox as one of those places where I go for a nice little treat. Their donuts are fluffy as I remember and the filling is packed with no room for air. I went during a time when they barely had a line so that was a plus. I got to try hokey pokey and raspberry which are flavors i haven't gotten before. Both were delicious, but the raspberry stood out more for that fruity flavor. Also got genmaicha again which is definitely a flavor i enjoy. read more

Got here around 9:20 on a sunny Friday, the day after July fourth. We were pretty close to the start of the line and got our donuts by around 10:15. The service was super helpful and nice, they set out water stations outside for the people to wait, went around the line outside to ask how many donuts people got to make sure there was enough, and when ordering they were very lovely and efficient. The inside area is very nice. It was decorated very boho and I appreciated it, they even had an outside seating area we didn't utilize but it looked super nice. Personally the donuts were a little sweet for me, but in general I'm someone that wants a couple bites of a sweet and I'm done. I think these donuts were done very well. Overall wouldn't go back just because of the line unless they had a super Interestring flavor that week/ someone was visiting and wanted to go. Vanilla 8.5/10 Strawberry - 6/10, to us it was too artificial tasting and wasn't like fresh / refreshing Lemon - 7/10 , very sweet but had a good strong lemon taste Fruity pebbles - 5.5, just very sweet and didn't have a very strong flavor, tasted just like weak vanilla with fruity pebbles mixed in Brownie - 6.5, very rich. Could only take one bite but pretty good!! read more

Delicious and fluffy donuts in the most amazing flavors and great drinks! My husband told me we had to wait 2 hours before opening time to ensure we got donuts. We came around 8:40am and there was already a good amount of groups ahead of us! Some people came prepared with chairs to sit on and tripods to watch their movies on their phones. We came with some hot tea in hand because it was a chilly and rainy morning. I can see why their line is long! The donuts were so good! We got all 4 flavors for the day - yuzu curd, raspberry cream, Hokey Pokey, and London fog! Each was delicious in their own way, but my favorite was the raspberry cream! I also got their seasonal oatchata latte and my husband got the mango drink! Both very tasty but we agreed the oatchata was better and paired well with the donuts. They have a cute seating area with lots of tables. Bathroom is also available inside. 10/10 would come again! Just wish the wait wasn't so long! read more

Purely based on the food, I enjoyed the soft donuts that were covered in sugar. For the favor of the week (or 2), I had donuts were filled with basmati rice pudding w/ pistachio (Kheer), Greek yogurt w/ mango jam (Mango Lassi), and vanilla cream w/ banana salted caramel (Banana Caramel). My fave was the Kheer; however, my least fave was the Banana Caramel as it was too sweet. Don't get me wrong, I love sugar .. maybe it's me so I do want to come back another time to check out the new donut menu. I was in line by 9:02 am before the 10 am start and was out of there by 10:14 am. There were a considerable amount of folks in front of me but like 5x more behind me. read more

Hyped up spots with a line outside the door isn't always a success... My cousin and I are in Seattle for a few days and The Flour box was on the list to try. They are only open Thursday through Sunday so we decided to go on Thursday during the week so it's less people. We got there before 8:30 and we were first in lines, wohoo!!!! (They open at 10) luckily it didn't start raining until 10 minutes before they opened. We got in and they were fast getting our doughnuts in the box, my strawberry milk drink and warmed snickerdoodle. Cousin and I found a table, took a sip of my strawberry milk and loved it. You taste the strawberry flavor and it had strawberry bits. Took my first bite of the strawberry cream doughnut and it was good but the more bite I took (less filling just the dough) it was just ok!! We got the banana coconut and horchata as well and we both weren't fans of it. They change their flavors every week or month so some flavors are better than others BUT honestly, in my opinion not worth waiting in line for over 90 minutes! Snickerdoodle was warm and delicious! Bit on the sweeter side but worth getting. Glad we tried it so we know how it is but if you're visiting Seattle and are limited on time, skip coming here! Basically it's all the same doughnut with different fillings. I was hoping the doughnut itself would be delicious and fresh but it's not. Dough was dry... I think the sugar on the doughnuts isn't necessary either. Note: parking lot is very limited read more

I went here during the durian donuts promotion, which you can only get if you've preordered them online. For this place in particular, you can refer to their Instagram page to see what flavors they have for the days that they're opened. This, however, is not my first visit here, and I will mention instances from previous visits here (when they sell their regular donuts) as I write up this more recent one. Parking here is very rough; their parking lot is small, so you'll need to go for street parking at the peak hours, which is even before the place opens most days. There's tons of inside seating, and the interior is very clean and smooth. If during regular hours, you order from the four flavors they offer during the week, and also add on any drinks you want as well. For this visit, I got their durian donuts and their shy bear fog. The donuts they offer here have filling stuffed inside and seem to be sprinkled all around with sugar, and their dough is very well-done. For even the durian donuts, the bread definitely balances and counteracts the relatively small but excessively sweet/strong filling that most if not all of their donuts they offer have stuffed inside. For the durian donuts in particular, huge but obvious disclaimer: you really have to love durian to fully enjoy them. All other flavors I've tried here are very enjoyable if you eat them in smaller bits and not all at once. I go here somewhat occasionally for their donuts as they switch their flavors around a lot. However, do expect long-ish lines especially on the weekends for their highly hyped stuff. read more

Best tasty treats. I would wait in line again and again. They were that delicious and their specialty coffee smooth

5/5 I've been eating Pamela's donuts since before there was a flour box, back when they were just pop ups! Throughout all that time I've never left a review, so this is it. Being from Hawaii, I'm a big fan of Malasadas. Which is essentially what these are, but she elevates them with her fillings and the interesting flavor combinations. These are a must try. Ambiance 5/5 - a nice little shop in rainier, she put a lot of care into the design, the main dining area is very "instagram worthy" with seats and tables and couches in the middle for larger group. Also seating outside with umbrellas for nice days. Service 5/5 - Ever since they opened there has been a high demand for their donuts. There is ALWAYS a line, and It's not uncommon to wait an hour prior to opening!and they've been open for years! I won't hold that against them and you should ignore any reviews complaining about this. If you come here, the expectation is that there will be a wait. This is an order at the counter and leave establishment, the service is always great. The people behind the counter packing donuts or making drinks are always friendly and welcoming. I've only ever had one complaint while visiting but the owner made it right on the spot without question, without any back and forth or some excuse. She is committed to providing a positive experience. Food 5/5 - The donuts are why you come. Light and fluffy. They have 4 different fillings that rotate every 2 weeks. These aren't just basic flavors like chocolate or vanilla, but flavors like roasted coconut tapioca, salted pistachio and even durian! She uses high quality ingredients and it really comes through when you eat them. They also have other treats that are sometimes available like basque cheesecake, salted brownies, this visit they even had zucchini bread, all delicious, and the cheesecake was probably the best I've had. If you ever watched "Friends" I picture this is the cheesecake chandler and Rachel ate off the floor lol. Also don't sleep on the drinks! Haven't tried one I didn't like yet! read more
