I drive by this incredible spot every day! Spotted it on TV and knew I had to rush and support our local donut haven - what a fantastic decision! The parking lot is spacious and convenient with a drive-thru option. On this day the rain paused just long enough for us to step inside! We were warmly welcomed by a very friendly face! The decor was super colorful and bright, very cute!!! Huge display of donuts!!! Huge! Exceptional customer service! We shared the excitement of seeing them featured on TV, which clearly delighted her! Now, let's talk about the heavenly donuts! We chose the irresistible Apple fritters, and oh, they stole the show - hands down the most scrumptious Apple fritter I've ever tasted, and with so many mouthwatering options to explore! What a treat! The coffee corner, ice cream, shakes, and diverse drinks menu are just the icing on the cake. And did I mention the tamales on the menu? Can't wait to try those next time! If you haven't experienced this gem yet, you're in for a treat - go give it a try! I highly recommend! read more

People flock over here for their donuts but trust me they have even better Tamales. While their donuts are bomb, i often get their tamales and devour them for breakfast. Freshly made, warmed and perfect with a side of hot sauce is how I prefer them. The minute you walk-in, you see a huge display of freshly made donuts and there is a huge variety to choose from. There certainly is something for everyone. It has a few seats inside and ample parking around. All in all, one of my fav breakfast spots in Oly, read more

I decided to visit this gem after it was featured on King-5 Evening Magazine. The food was excellent. I had the Lucas sandwich and an apple fritter. My sandwich had egg cheese and bacon. The fritter was large and fresh. They offer a large selection of a variety of fritters. They all looked very good. The service was friendly and quick. This is a locally owned business and it is so much better than those well known chain donut shops. They offer a large selection of drinks as well as ice cream and authentic Mexican tamales. The ambience was quiet and they have an exterior patio for customers who want to eat outside. All in all, this place is a hit and I will definitely be visiting them again. read more

I absolutely love Twisters doughnuts and tamales but will NEVER eat there again and advise anyone who's thinking about it not go! My brother wanted to stop by and get some tamales for dinner, my wife and I waited in the car as we had recently eaten. As we sat in the car we witnessed more than a dozen rats (not mice, size of a squirrel) running back and forth from the back of their building. I witnessed this for about 10 mins as we sat and waited. We then left and drove around the building where we saw 3 metal speed racks out back, one with a few doughnuts on it and rats all over it. The back door was closed with nothing more than a screen closing it. This is an infestation and the health department has been called read more

Such yummy donuts. I always have a hard time deciding on a maple bar or a fritter. This Sunday the maple bar won. Still delicious. Definitely one of my regular stops. read more

I ordered these donuts for the first time a week ago. I decided to splurge and have door-dash bring them right to our door! I wasn't sure what to order, so just went with a 7 piece mixed box of their choice. Every single donut was fresh, yeasty, fluffy and delicious! We couldn't pick a favorite. I'll definitely be back to Twister! So far my favorite donuts since living here this past year! read more

Love, love LOVE Twister Donuts. They have a amazing selection of great donuts. Cake donuts, maple bars, creme donuts, you name it. I am a huge fan of their fruit fritters, which are insanely good. If you're having a bad day, a peach fritter can turn that frown upside down. Trust me. I also go to Twister for their tamales (chicken and pork). I buy them cold, by the dozen, to have in the fridge for quick meals during the week. I've seen some people complain about the prices. I don't mind paying a little extra for top quality donuts, especially ones that are freshly made and are delivered with a smile. Speaking of that smile, the owners are super nice and really friendly. I guess I'm there a lot because they seem to recognize me in the drive through. They always ask how I am, and somehow, there is always something a little extra in my order. If you're anywhere near the east side of Olympia, you really need to treat yourself to a donut. Or three. Or a dozen. read more

This is my family's favorite donut place in town (we remember when they opened!). They are consistently high quality and they have lots of variety in flavors. Prices are reasonable too. I love that they have the drive thru - but it's more fun to order at the counter. The seating area is small. Staff are always kind and helpful. read more

Great donuts! Good service and beautiful flowers growing in the drive through area! I will be back read more

Sublime!! What a great little bakery!! Love it!! And! They had freshly made old fashioned donuts, which i was craving, in a variety of flavors, plus tons of different donuts, and i noticed they also have ice cream now!! Oh boy!! They made my day!! read more

Just amazing donuts. It's a little mom & pop kind of shop. Really good food. Kinda pricey but the quality is well worth it. Some of the crazier donut flavors make me scratch my head but, people buy them. I'm more of a custard filled donut kind of guy. read more

These donuts are unfortunately just not worth the calories. They look much better than they taste and I paid over $20 for 6 of them! They are oily and have very little flavor. Service was great and friendly that's the reason for 2 stars read more

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. I am visiting a friend in Olympia and decided to try this place. Tony the owner and his family were sweet and welcoming and even threw in a free donut. Then the Owner Tony came out and handed me a free flauta. I am sitting here eating my chocolate maple bar and drinking a chocolate milk. I cannot believe how delicious everything is plus the selection of flavors. It is a culinary delight with many interesting flavors to keep you need to keep coming back. If you're in the Olympia area you absolutely must give this place a try! read more

The donuts are amazing!!!! They also have a drive thru. I had a chance to talk with the owner who is very nice.

Wonderful service, kind people and very generous. Thank you for the years of service and here's to your continued prosperity.

My donut tasted stale. I think the oil needs changing. Yuck. Tamales were dry and cost too much. Threw them out. Service was good. Very nice people. Very expensive 4 donuts $24?!!! read more

There are donut shops and then there is Twisters! The maple bars are AMAZING. I'm actually a person who can easily pass by donuts in the lunch room, but theirs are just too hard to resist. read more

OK so I used to make donuts at a small shop in north Whatcom County. I love a fresh, handmade donut. There is no comparison between fresh dough made daily and frozen dough flown in from California - none!. The high quality of making pastry in small batches versus the lack of quality when you make dough in massive batches for large businesses is clear. Twister Donuts clearly makes fresh dough daily. Everything smells amazing when you walk inside. You can taste the yeast and proofing process in the donuts - especially the maple bars! They were out of bacon maple bars (sad face) but they had my other favorites: buttermilk bars (don't sleep on those), old fashioned, maple bar and chocolate old fashioned. I love a cake donut too. They also have fancier donuts with candy on top and fillings if that is your fare. There are so many choices it's hard to decide what to get! There are also bottled beverages, ice cream and other items too. Supporting small business is important and this is one that deserves your money. They work hard to make great product and provide good service to their community. Patronize Twister donuts and eat your feelings in style. read more

What's better than a drive thru donut store! Great donuts, always fresh! Huge variety to choose from. Super nice staff! They have homemade tamales, too. Haven't tried them yet but I have heard they are good. You can order inside, too. Although there isn't much in the way of indoor seating, anyway not the last time I was there. read more

Service was okay, not very friendly. Some of the doughnuts had a funny aftertaste like maybe the oil wasn't fresh. And I felt like they were expensive for doughnuts. Just meh. read more

Stopped here on a whim when out looking for something sweet. Bought doughnuts and they were really, really good. Also got half a dozen cream puffs and can say these are the best cream puffs I've ever had! read more

Great donuts. I totally recommend them. 1st place in town that had bacon on the donuts. Support good local businesses.

Best donuts I've had in Washington State. The owner is also the most humble and respectful guy I've seen in a long time. 11/10 recommend.

Such a lovely drive thru experience. Quick, friendly, and accurate. The donuts themselves taste very fresh, and they have a much bigger variety then most donut shops around town. Pricing is very comparable to other shops. read more

Great tasting donuts. Online ordering wasn't the easiest to navigate. Picked up a couple dozen for a work event. They had some maple bars that had decorated frosting that worked great for out for our birthday celebration. read more

I visited this establishment last week.. Not too sure where these good reviews came from. I ordered two donuts. One Oreo cookie blast. One maple bacon bar. The whip cream on the Oreo cook blast tasted like it had been sitting open in a refrigerator that doesn't get cleaned. Inedible. I couldn't stomach the taste after two bites. The maple bacon bar was okay. The sweetness of the maple and the delicious bacon mostly overpowered the taste of old dough. The man, who I assume is the owner, was friendly enough. I ordered in the drive-thru, so I wasn't able to see inside very well. It looked dirty from what I could see. Just nasty. I won't be back. read more

Fantastic local donuts. I don't think we've ever had anything that wasn't amazing. Keep up the good work!

I love this place and the owner is superb! Delicious donuts and a HUGE assortment. My favorite donuts in Olympia area!

I decided to try this place out since it had so many great reviews. Sadly I did not have the same experience as others. My donuts were very hard and tasted old. Not much flavor either. I was very excited when I saw they offered tamales. I was highly disappointed when the lady gave me a frozen block of tamales. I thought they would be warm. I was even more upset when HALF A DOZEN COST 16.00. That's really steep for something I have to cook at home and is not ready to eat. I probably won't come back here. read more

OMGOODNESS!! Just stopped in for the first time at this SCRUMPTIOUS SPOT!! Holy cow are the donuts, fritters, cream puffs DELICIOUS!! They even have fresh tamales!! I bought one of the pork and it was awesome! They have sandwiches for breakfast and lunch also. The young lady that waited on us so sweet and patient as we selected our goodies. I can see why these are considered the best in Olympia. I definitely recommend this awesome business you won't be disappointed!! read more

Don't know what's happening with this place, used to be the best doughnuts in town and has gone down hill. Doughnuts taste bad, very little filling inside doughnuts, cream puffs are hard with very little filling, my favorite maple bacon has fake bacon now and tastes disgusting. They are no longer the best, Safeway makes better doughnuts and that's saying a lot. read more

This is my absolute favorite donut shop. The owner and his family are the nicest. Twisters has such supportive customers, that when COVID shut down inside businesses, there were lines of cars several blocks long EVERYWHERE MORNING, of customers purchasing through the drive through, to make sure this shop survived. Their donuts may not be the fanciest, or the selection the largest, but they are great. read more

I've always driven past this place as it is positioned right before you get to a point on Martin where is merges with Pacific Ave into one road. I decided to go since it has a drive thru. I know, I must be getting lazy in my "elderly" years. Anyway, the parking lot isn't tiny but the spacing is weird and you have to watch out for people backing or pulling out or coming out of the drive thru when you're pulling in from Martin. The whole commotion can be quite hazardous from an accident stand point. Anyway the menu is really festive and full of color and all the pics almost appear to be actual size. I settled to 2 glazed twisters, 2 reg glazed donuts, 1 apple fritter, and a piña colada freezie. I pulled up to the window and the male voice from the speaker box then informed me they didn't have any twisters or the freezie. So I go two glazed donuts instead if the twisters and a French vanilla/mocha freezie. The freezie wasn't very good. The straw that was provided was not capable of allowing me to drink my beverage without fear of passing out from not being able to breathe. Ice chunks kept getting stuck in the straw. Good thing I had a back up in the car. Thank you Subway. The donuts were soft and actually very good and very inexpensive. They were almost yeasty doughy in texture. They are not like the nasty donuts from Krispy Kreme. I will be coming back here even with the lower rating as I was more pleased than unhappy. Just disappointed I wasn't able to actually get what I ordered. There is lotsa bacon here though. read more
