This time my review is for the limited time Cherry Popper donut. See photo. It's a lime flavored cream filled donut with a fun cherry design in top. Loooove the line cream!! I'm not a super sweet donut kind of guy but I tried it cause it was a coupon sent via the email club. And I wouldn't eat it frequently, but would definitely get it again. The bacon maple donut is still my all time favorite going back to my days of hitting the Voodoo in Portland OR or downtown on 6th Street. BTW happy 23rd birthday today Voodoo!!

10 out of 10. These donuts are so ridiculous. Oversized, unapologetically sugary, and completely extra in every way...yet somehow EXACTLY what the doctor ordered. I'm usually a "simple glazed (or apple fritter) from a regular donut shop" type of girl, but VooDoo is where I go to when I'm with friends and we're feeling extra dramatic about dessert. Sugar with a side of chaos excites me. We ordered a nice spread: Bacon Maple Bar, Old Dirty Bastard, Apple Fritter, Blueberry Cake, Portland Cream, Strawberry Shortcake, Oh Captain My Captain, and a few more that basically stared us in the face and dared us. Every donut is oversized and huge. Sharing is your only option...there is no other way. The flavor combinations, though over the top, actually work together and it always surprises me somehow. It looks like random sugary trash thrown together, but nope. There is a method to the madness. Nothing TASTES like it's thrown together for shock value although it LOOKS like it is. The toppings, fillings, etc. all complement each other. These aren't just offensive photo opp donuts for the 'Gram. They're legitimately good. That being said, you can't eat this shit everyday. These are special occasion donuts. Split with friends. Share on date night. I tried to hate you, VooDoo. But I love you. And I hate that I love you.

I remember the first time I got Voodoo Donuts in Portland, OR. It was maybe my first vegan donut ever, and needless to say, it left a big impression. I'm happy to report that while I've had many, many more vegan donuts since, Voodoo still stands up to scrutiny, even after launching in dozens of different locations nationwide. This particular outpost is a genuinely fun spot to hang out in, with indoor and outdoor seating, and pinball machines for the kids. Plenty of parking around back, too. Word to the wise: If you have your heart set on a particular flavor, come early, and give them a call in advance just to make sure. This is especially true of the vegan options which are further limited. That said, when I was told there weren't any of my chosen flavor available, they offered to prep on for me fresh if I could wait 5 minutes. Hell yeah! Now that's sweet customer service.

My fiancé wanted me to try these donuts so I tried one. Then came back a week later, then the week after. I dream about the churro cheesecake donut often. I'm not a sweets guy despite my circle shaped body, but it's the one sweet tooth treat I crave often. I hope they never get rid of it if not you will find outside with a protest sign calling for the comeback of the churro cheesecake donut. I wish nothing but the best for the baker(s) back there making them. Hope they know they're my ride or die.

Love to stop by Voodoo Doughnut and it definitely lives up to the hype--super fun, over-the-top flavors, and a great spot when you're in the mood for something indulgent. We tried a mix, including one of their signature fritters and a chocolate peanut butter situation that was very rich (in a good way). Everything leans on the sweeter side, so it's perfect for sharing. Not necessarily an everyday stop, but absolutely worth it when you want a treat and something a little different.

Voodoo Donuts - iconic in brand. Savory decadence of sugar and carbs, and their operation of hours are quite a hefty duty of supporting your donut cravings, whenever they arise! I popped in after dinner with hubs and we got a good assortment of donuts, rotating in their display, and I was delighted with my choices. The staff were friendly and helpful, and coming in later in the afternoon there was no rush or line, so we could take our time. Parking is great too on burnet so we could get in and out and we love the vibes and seating! All in all, donut lover, yes you should come here and enjoy!

It seems I am having a Mandela effect moment about what I have believed was the first time I discovered voodoo donuts existed. In my memory, it was a magazine article, but I don't remember reading magazines after high school. Voodoo donuts was not established until 2003, and I graduated high school in 1997. I know that Portland, Oregon has been on my list of places to travel for a long time primarily because of this memory, voodoo donuts and the way that I learned they had magical donuts covered in cookies and cereal, which was the thing that didn't exist in the 90s or early 2000s not New York not then. I didn't realize Austin had Voodoo donuts and was SO EXCITED!! unfortunately the strawberry go tart I wanted was sold out. I selected a jelly donut type instead and the cereal one. I am so glad I finally had a chance to try them. It's definitely worth it if where you are visiting from doesn't have anything like, plus I believe they are the trailblazers !!! It was a Saturday afternoon this location was pretty quiet. They also sell merch and there's a window to watch someone frosting the donuts and stuff. Service was efficient and professional.

I mainly came here for their photo booth but quickly found out they moved it to a different location. Boo! The lady who was working the front was friendly. I ordered some of their cute Halloween donuts, all of them tasted fresh and were a hit back home. Friendly environment perfect for donut lovers. I took one star for the photo booth not being there, and putting a pinball machine in its place.

Voodoo Doughnut (VD) does have that doughnut magic! This was the first time I tried VD and was pleasantly surprised. First, the building is eye -catching in bright pink. Half of their doughnuts are mutant large starting about $4.50+ each. There are so many choices I felt like a kid trying to decide on an ice cream flavor. The cashier was very helpful in helping me to discern between a yeast v cake doughnut. Ultimately, I decided on the butter fingering. Very unique doughnut...it tasted like cake inside and very crispy on the outside. The cake part of the doughnut was mildly sweet. The topping was super sweet...a delicate balance. I will definitely go back with friends and try one of the larger doughnuts.

If you have the sugar cravings of a pre-diabetic then this is your spot. We've had numerous donuts from here from the glazed to chocolate glazed to, well, you get the point. All the donuts are always perfect in texture and packed with toppings and flavor. It's definitely a great specialty donut spot. We got them delivered and they were still very fresh when they arrived. The only knock I would say is how messy they can be, but hey, they're donuts. We've been to both locations but we're specifically rating the Burnet Road location on delivery. The 6th Street location is just as good, but very very busy as you can imagine since it's on 6th. If you're on Burnet Road or 6th Street definitely give this place a try, it's a great way to eat yourself into morbid obesity.

Excellent donut! And so funny... So these donuts are BIG and the dough is fluffy and very delicious. Add to this the very imaginative toppings and fillings and you have a pastry experience, not just a "donut". This time we went to this new (to me) location that is super easy to reach and with a large parking lot. I can report that at 3 pm there was no line... just a steady stream of customers walking in for their sweet treat. First we got 2 donuts to eat inside (there are 3 small tables indoors and more outdoors but it was a very cold day so we chose to stay inside). We got one donut filled with Boston cream and one that had a peanut butter topping and was filled with a white banana tasting cream... the combo was unusually delicious! So we shared and got to taste an oldie but goodie and a new combo. I paid about $8 all in. Then we decided to take 6 donuts to a dinner we were going to attend, so we chose a whimsical assortment including a voodoo doll donut (lol) and that box was $24. They will Love It! Yummy one good experience: enjoy!

Vegan Maple Cream
Katie G.

I had a wonderful experience picking up doughnuts for coworkers on a weekday morning. They are all so unique and fun! Online ordering & pickup experience was so easy and speedy. They even put my vegan doughnut separate from the rest :) I tried the vegan maple Boston cream donut and omg totally delicious. It was huge and a big sugar rush but so worth it! Highly recommend?

Stopped by for a sweet treats after hanging out at a nearby bar. It wasn't busy and we picked our flavors from the rotating pastry cabinet. I settled on a classic chocolate frosted. Upon receiving it, it had no hole and thought it was a boston creme, so I went back in to fix it. Turns out it was the chocolate frosted but without a hole. It was light and fluffy with a nice chocolate frosting as expected. They also have cake doughnuts and other specialties. There were some picnic tables outside to enjoy your treats.

They're always nice. They care about using fresh ingredients. I appreciate that they spell doughnut the correct way.

If a walking talking donut existed, you likely would not find it at Gourdough's food trailer…read more However, they do have some mutant large and incredibly creative sweet and savory donuts. The hubs and I decided to split the Big Elvis donut with house made peanut butter icing, fresh grilled bananas, grilled bacon and honey). What is not to like about this combination of ingredients? This savory donut's base was Gourdough's (play on words) signature sourdough donut and then layered with each of the ingredients. The layering of ingredients and flavors created a 5-alarm palate explosion. The donut was delicious...better and better with each bite. Wow, wow, wow! Crunch...flavor...smokiness...crunch...flavor...smokiness! We have not had a donut quite like this one. Maria, our donut chef, boldly told us that it was going to be best donut we had ever eaten. Such a bold claim...however, Maria came with "receipts". Total donut nirvana... Gourdough's is in a food truck park with ample seating outside and a few of cushioned love seats. Superb experience...

Crazy novelty donuts!!…read more This place has over the top donuts that still taste good! Unlike some of the other Austin donut locations like VooDoo or The Salty, I feel like Gourdoughs is at the intersection between unique style and good taste. I enjoyed both, but def preferred the Naughty or Nice! I will say the Gummy snake on the baby rattler was a little dry. It is a food trailer, but they do have seating outside. They have Christmas lights which are very pretty, but I went at night in mid October so I wasn't facing the brutal Texas heat. They have really good hours, perfect for a late night snack. The workers were quick with our food. They call it out and you go pick it up from the trailer. I will say it looked mostly like paid parking, but we risked it & didn't pay as we were probably there for less than 30 minutes.

One of our favorite post-pool summer treats! The kids especially enjoy the Violet Crown and Brown…read moreSugar Milk Tea soft serve, which they wish were a full time menu item. But perhaps best of all in their eyes--the icy cold patio self-serve water. "No one else gets their water so cold! " Will be back often and recommend to friends!

First time checking this place out last weekend. A couple things that immediately put us off had to…read moredo with sanitation. Their patio area was FILTHY: tables with dirt and crumbs, napkins on the floor, grime. It was just gross. Then, in the very small space inside where you order, somebody brought in a massive slobbering dog (NOT a service dog) and the staff were completely blasé about it. So not so much into health codes here apparently. We each ordered a taiyaki, and also got 3 macarons and 2 donuts. The ube macaron had great flavor but was completely stale, so it sucks that they are serving old food. The vanilla-passionfruit and yuzu were much better (and fresher). As for the chocolate donut, we liked the flavor but we're not the biggest fans of mochi because something the texture makes it feel like you're eating something raw. Same issue with the pumpkin donut. We do have to say that the taiyakis were awesome. We had recently tried SomiSomi and these ones were definitely better. The "fish" has a great balance of chew and crisp, and we loved the consistency of the soft serve. One of us got the pumpkin and it had such a pleasant light flavor to it that wasn't cloying or artificial. So good. One of us had to get ube and black sesame in a cup because you couldn't swirl them and both flavors were delicious, as was the unique red bean paste (which we fell for when we were in Japan this past summer). If not for the sanitary conditions and semi-catatonic workers, this would be four stars. We can see ourselves coming back again at some point, and hopefully they can train their staff to clean up, smile, and not let customers bring filthy animals into a confined space. Three stars for now.
