I wish Voodoo would make it's way to Chicago. I am absolutely obsessed with the quality of these donuts. I suggest looking up the donuts online before going into the store because it is really easy to get overwhelmed. I was pleasantly surprised that the prices were not through the roof, as the donuts are great quality. We went in the afternoon on a weekday and did not have any wait; reading the other reviews this is a rarity, so if you're going prepare yourself for a wait. read more

Oh. My. God. I walked into my first Voodoo Doughnut in Denver, CO and I couldn't decide what to order, so I ordered whatever I could. My sister and I split a dozen, my cousin got the voodoo dozen, and my other cousin got 6 of her own. I wish I could post the video we had of all of our donuts, but pictures only I guess! Every donut I ate tasted at least good. No donut was disappointing. Even the one with bacon on it, and I'm not a fan of sweet bacon (but I ordered it because I wanted to try as many of their donuts as I could.) My absolute favourite was the Diablos Rex (the donut with the pentagram on it.) I could swear they actually summon the devil himself to make a donut THAT good because it is DAMN good! I had to buy that donut 2 other times after the first time I ate it. Drop all of your morals and BUY THE SATANIC DONUT (I am not a satanist or a cultist, but my GOD that is a good donut.) if you don't like chocolate, though, AVOID THE DONUT. It's pure chocolate. Like nothing I've ever eaten before. End of story? This place is cool, they play cool music, and their donuts are amazing. Order as many as you can! read more

The best donuts ever!!!! A great variety to choose from. Very fresh and taste fabulous!

Tried this place with my son for the first time and wow, we were not disappointed. We went on a Friday at around 9:30 in the morning and it was starting to get packed. Go early if you can but even if there's a line the donuts are worth the wait. We had the voodoo dozen which is a sample of their best donuts. Enjoy! read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Voodoo dozen. - Donuts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Overhyped donut store with many options to choose from. I will have to say that I am down for the hype. The store is so cute and the display of these donuts are darling! We ordered the raspberry filling donut, blueberry cake, glazed, and the Bulgarian cream. All which were delicious! I'm not much of a donut lover, but the service was stupendous and the donuts were soft and fluffy! not saying these are my favorite out of all times because Shipley's still has my heart. read more

My boyfriend brought back some donuts from Voodoo and they were soooo yummy! We just moved from Orlando, Fl where they have a location and the lines were always soooo long so I'm happy we were able to get in and out pretty quickly. The blueberry donut is so far my favorite but I can't wait to try their other donuts read more

I'm not superstitious but I think these donuts put a spell on me! I will say the music made me feel quite old and the culture made me clutch my cross! Went here with the grandkids. Very youthful crowd. My granddaughter fit in with her Dock Martin boots but I was shaking in New Balances! I got the Old Dirty B-word, and the grandkids got the Maple Bacon and the Portland Cream. Interesting names. This was the first time I ever made them kids cover their ears when I ordered something! The donuts were so fresh and tasty. Best donuts I've ever had (and I've had MANY). Voodoo Doughnuts, I'm under your control. Bravo! read more

My teenage boys LOVE this place and love their donuts, but it's more due to the novelty than the actual donuts. The atmosphere is cool - fully tattooed staff and somewhat caustic service is expected from the instant you walk in. Loud metal music, somewhat raunchy decor, and donut names like "cock and balls" are humorous and make you feel like you're cooler than you are, just because you're there. The namesake VooDoo donut is a doll-shaped donut with X's for eyes and a pretzel "stake" thru the heart where a bloody (raspberry?) filling can be found. If you like things like Fruit Loop covered donuts, this is for you, but you won't find a traditional chocolate-glazed or plain 'ol donut in this joint, which is more about novelty and shock-factor. Don't get me wrong, it's a must visit, but you won't find out-of-this-world delicious donuts here. TIP: They only take cash and have an ATM. Expect a line, but rest assured it moves pretty fast! read more

Having moved to the area since my last review and the boyfriend craving the cereal topped doughnuts a time too many, we've stopped back in a time or two into Voodoo Doughnut and I've found a place in my heart for the Old Dirty Bastard. This is a yeast doughnut topped with chocolate frosting, big ol' pieces of Oreo cookies and peanut butter. I still stick to my story that a lot of their doughnuts are so super sweet, but THIS.. this doughnut is everything. Shouts to the Wu and to Voodoo Doughnut for this delicious little treat. read more

I went hear with a friend when traveling to Denver for a conference. Both of us were craving doughnuts and wanted a step up from the Krispy Kreme across from our hotel. Enter Voodoo Doughnuts, a joint that promised an edgier array of flavors and experiments. When we entered the place, I was incredibly overwhelmed by the choices. The doughnuts are not labeled but spin at a hypnotic pace in two bright display cases. I wish I could've had some form of signage to know what was in each doughnut. Thankfully, the cashier was very helpful. He recommended the ODB, which was a yeast doughnut with chocolate icing, Oreo crumbles, and peanut butter drizzle. We also got the El Diablo, a chocolate cake doughnut with chocolate icing and a white icing pentagram. While the ODB was fun, the cake doughnut had a better taste (the ODB really relied on the toppings); however, I only tried two of the many different creations. You will not get bored if you go to Voodoo. read more

Really 3.5 stars, but rounding down instead of up due to service. I remember going to Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland back when gourmet doughnuts and creative flavors on doughnuts was a novel thing. Now you walk through NYC and there are fancy doughnut shops in every district. Voodoo Doughnuts is still the original though, so when I found they had a Denver outpost, I had to check them out. Walking in, they capture the Voodoo Doughnuts vibe pretty well. They had all the choices that Voodoo Doughnuts is known for. I picked up a Voodoo Doll and a Chuckles (yeast doughnut with chocolate frosting dipped in mocha powder and topped with peanuts and caramel and chocolate drizzle). The latter was pretty tasty and the doughnut itself had a pleasant raised dough texture. The Voodoo Doll I was sort of disappointed with because it was just ridiculously sweet. Perhaps it's just that I don't do well with super sweet things, but the doughnut was difficult to eat. The layer of chocolate was too thick and there was not enough filling to offset the flavor of that super sweet chocolate. Now on to service. While I was in line, one of my friends had already purchased her doughnuts and was off to the corner of the store to get a picture of the iconic box. An employee literally yelled at her to go outside. I'm not quite sure why she was so upset, but after she shoo'd my friend outside, the employee came walking back with this scowl on her face and was muttering under her breath about my friends taking pictures. It's not like the store was being mobbed and there was a line out the door and nowhere to stand. It was just my group in there and my friend was not in the way at all. If I want super sweet, but interesting, doughnuts, I'd return to Voodoo Doughnuts, but I'd probably stick to their original Portland location. read more

I've been going to voodoo since the it was just two stores in Portland. I now live in LA and while the LA shop always feelings like it's missing something, the Colorado spot felt at home. The same bacon maple taste I had grown to love when I was younger. Absolutely give it a shot. 10/10 read more

Only in Denver will I find a 24-hour doughnut shop next to a dispensary. This brilliant (and perhaps intentional) combination makes me chortle. I like how creative and witty their doughnut are. I mean, Oh Captain, My Captain (Yeast doughnut glazed with vanilla frosting and Cap'n Crunch cereal)? A doughnut in the shape of a voodoo doll with a pretzel stick stuck in it? Who comes up with this stuff? It's quite ingenious. But are the doughnuts worth all the hype? Is it really worth waiting 20 minutes in a line for? Not quite. While they are awesome to look at (#InstaWorthy), doughnuts weren't particularly special. They are cash-only; there is an ATM available inside the store. It's on a relatively busy street, so you may experience a little difficulty finding a parking spot. There is no seating area available in the shop, which makes it difficult to enjoy your treat on the spot. read more

Great donuts, the food in Denver overall is great since all the restaurants are competing for the stoners business. Good for foodies and those with munchies. Their donuts are decadent and satisfy every sweet tooth for the next three days read more

Not as great as the other Voodoo doughnuts that we've been too, but the service was good!

Great customer service! I mean from the time you walked in the door until check out ! The donuts were good my only suggestion would be that they glaze both sides of the donut so they aren't dry when we eat them the next day read more

Voodoo Doughnut - YESSS - Donuts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

A few big things: 1. CASH ONLY 2. Open 24 hrs!! 3. You will be drowning in sugar (4. No gluten free options) Whether these are pros or cons to you-- that's up to you. Stopped in because we were grabbing a quick bite around the corner and noticed people coming out with all of these pink boxes. The donuts are super sweet and interestingly decorated. Some cereal-covered ones-- the cereal was a little stale but still overall interesting donuts! We opted to do the baker's dozen so it was fun to try different ones. We came in during a lull in service-- but not even two minutes after, 3-4 groups of people came in. Staff was very friendly and helpful in letting us all the options. Anyway-- not sure it'd be worth it to me to wait in line for over 30 minutes, but definitely fun to stop in and check out! read more

Was this place good? Well, yeah but is it little overhyped? Well, kinda. I do like the fact that they have extremely unique flavors and toppings, but I'm not a huge fan of doughy donuts. Regardless, the flavors was good so I'll give it that. Just wished it was more airy and melt in your mouth. read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Donuts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Another "must see" when visiting beloved Denver. A line to the door, no doubt but it is a line for doughnuts so I dont ask questions. Please please please, its CASH ONLY. They have an ATM but just try to remember. It'll save you some money. There are so. many. options. This time, for sake of decency, we walked away with 4 doughnuts: Voodoo Doll (raspberry filling), Old Dirty Bastard (peanut butter), basic glazed and an M&M covered doughnut. All were warm and soft; just what I needed in this weather. Not to say I havent indulged in more savory selections: Cock-n-Balls is filled with Bavarian cream and is the most appropriate pot-luck item for any bachelorette party. The Bacon Maple if you like a salty/sweet combination and lastly the classic Simpsons doughnut that we all know and cant resist. The staff is friendly, you can watch them shifting, baking and singing during your visit. p.s. did I mention its pink? all of it. its beautiful. read more

Just so everyone knows upfront, I haven't actually consumed any Voodoo doughnuts (no gluten free options). But I HAVE, however, been a customer. I hosted an event where I wanted to have a donut wall (duh), and Voodoo was the first place that came to mind. This shop is so clean and efficient, especially considering how busy they always seem to be and how many millions of donuts they seem to be making every minute. They can fulfill any order request with 24 hours notice. I ordered 9 dozen donuts and they were beautiful and fresh and ready when I needed them for my event. The staff is super nice and they made the ordering process really easy, offering suggestions. While I can't tell you how they taste, I can say that I'm impressed by these colorful weird donuts in every shape and size and flavor. Plus they have vegan options and seasonal options and a constantly changing menu in addition to all the classics. And they all seem pretty affordable. But I don't know, what's the going rate for a good donut? read more

My first trip to Denver was nothing short of extraordinary. Despite trying to fill it with new friends, kaleidoscopic experiences, pet-napping, pancake-indulgence, and Richard Gere, the doughnut-shaped void in my heart remained -- My excursion was incomplete! And so I returned less than five weeks later. After twenty minutes of driving in circles (hint: parking is a nightmare!), we were taken aback by the line -- which stretched halfway through the block. We were also surprised to find nomads. Nomads whom had no interest in gold or green, but only sweet rings of sugary fried dough. Had any doubt lingered about the reality of this moment, it was nearly affirmed that they had appeared as a foreshadowing of my life after retirement. Oh, mercy me. We stood waiting for the longest 4,500 seconds of our existence. Finally, I gathered every last penny in my purse so I could welcome my new pink box (Tex Ass, Voodoo Doll, McMinnville Cream, Old Dirty Bastard) with open arms and a wide smile. There's nothing in the world that compares to bathing in the glory of the magic box filled with sugar and fat. Absolutely nothing. As soon as I got back to the hotel, I dove right in. Each doughnut was laced with a crispy, sweet, and savory goodness. After a few bites of each, it was evident that the VooDoo doughnuts were uncomfortable outside of their native land so I stopped and caressed the box until they felt at home again. My experience at the gym the following two weeks made it clear that my body was had found its soulmate. I ached and ached as every bone my body clenched for dear life onto the remains of each VooDoo Doughnut, and vice versa. Chocolates may say, "I love you," but doughnuts say, "forever." Swoooon! Thank you VD, for bearing my match made in heaven! read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Moments in life that you wish could live on forever: Giant's themed Tex Ass; Voodoo Doll; McMinnville Cream; Old Dirty Bastard! - Donuts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

"I am not a doughnut person." Is what I would always tell myself and everyone else. However, voodoo doughnuts has worked some black magic on me and has turned me into a doughnut fan. I've heard of this infamous doughnut shop which is originally based out of Portland, Oregon before, so when I saw there was one in Denver during a snowboarding trip, I had to stop in to see what the hype was about. I decided to order a box of 6 to take home to my family, and I kid you not, those doughnuts were gone within the half hour of my return home to Virginia. I instantly regretted only buying 6, and will know next time to get at least three dozen (alright, I'm being a little dramatic here, but 6 was definitely not enough!) They were such a hit! And on top of that, they were still soft and delicious 12 hours after I originally purchased them. Strangers even stopped my friend and I in the airport to ask if we had traveled from Portland with the doughnuts after recognizing the famous pink box. The TSA security guy even joked with us and said, "you're not allowed to come through with those delicious doughnuts". Now I know firsthand where all the hype is coming from, and let me tell you, it is real. My favorite doughnuts ranked from highest to lowest from what I have tried are as follows: 1. The Portland - Raised yeast doughnut with bavarian cream. Everything about this doughnut was perfectly delicious and one of the best doughnuts I have ever had. The cream was sweet but not overly so. 2. Captain, My Captain - Raised yeast doughnut with vanilla frosting and captain crunch. Sounds like a strange mix, but it works so well together. I enjoy foods with contrasting textures and this did a great job with that. 3. Bacon Maple Bar Doughnut - Raised yeast doughnut with maple frosting and bacon on top. I've tried maple bacon doughnuts from 5 other shops, and my friends and I agree that Voodoo has the best one of all time. 4. Voodoo Doll Doughnut - Raised yeast doughnut filled with raspberry jelly topped with chocolate frosting and a pretzel stake. I usually despise jelly filled doughnuts the most and leave them for some other poor soul to handle, however the jelly filled doughnut here was exceptional. The filling tasted as though it was made with jam rather than an artificially flavored jelly, and I was very pleasantly surprised to realize that not all jelly doughnuts are treated equal. 5. Dirt Doughnut - Raised yeast doughnut with vanilla frosting and Oreos. Another good doughnut, however it is VERY sweet. This and the old dirty doughnut were the only ones that hurt my teeth and made them sensitive. 6. Old Dirty B*stard Doughnut - same thing as the dirt doughnut, except with peanut butter. All in all, I loved these doughnuts and can't wait to have them again. I also can't believe I just wrote such an extensive review about what used to be my least favorite dessert item, who would have thought? A last bit of important information: This establishment is ***CASH ONLY*** and the 6 doughnuts I had purchased cost about $12. read more

On my last weekend living in Cheesman with this literally at the end of my street...I KNEW I had to check it out. Yes, I know that I'm *just* moving to Cap Hill but I won't ever live this close again. I got in line on a Friday night after work after finding out they had opened at 5 pm. I lucked out with the line not being very long at all. I met some pretty die hard Voodoo Donut fanatics in line who were telling me all about their favorites. And heh heh, Colfax Creme and cock n'balls really sounded the most interesting. (For the record, I passed on both this first trip out). After an hour of waiting, I stepped up to the register, shaking, nervous that I wouldn't screw up my order. I got: Fruit Loop and a Capn Crunch donut, Mango Tang, Grape, Miami Vice, Maple bacon, and a Voodoo donut. My favorite was by far the Grape and Mango Tang. Each offered a light dusting of flavor...and have you ever had a grape and or mango flavored donut? yeah, neither have I. I totally messed up and forgot to order the Oreo donut though, but I will save that for the next trip. This place is funky, eclectic, and a unique donut experience. Do I think it is worth the wait? Yes, maybe once just to check it out...but I likely won't be doing it anytime soon. Come Jan 15 they will be open and at 24 hours at that. I'll definitely be back once the hype dies down to check out all the other flavors. please note, this is a CASH ONLY establishment but there is an ATM in the building (it moves at a snail pace BTW). read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Mmmmm - Donuts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Voodoo Doughnuts Mile High Maple Blazer Blunt Marshall Mathers Tangfastic Buttermilk Bar Apple Fritter Chocolate Caramel Peanut Not particularly thrilled by Voodoo Doughnuts when visiting Portland, but wondering if this may have been due to the higher quality found at Blue Star, I was undoubtedly ready to support an import after the disaster of Onefold and with a larger storefront but equally shady neighbors as the PDX original Voodoo Doughnuts Mile High reconfirmed suspicions that although they may be "original," the product simply is not that great. 24/7, just like the original, with a menu that reads the same aside from a few exceptions it was standing back assessing the situation as Rage Against The Machine played loudly that I opted to watch the kitchen in order to request the freshest options and noting that two of my personal favorites were currently being glazed a box of one-half dozen was requested, specific instructions to grab a buttermilk bar and fritter from the back. Exchanging $14 for the Pink Box before making way to the street, no seating offered inside, it was almost immediately on exit that a vagrant stepped up to request food or funding, this act a repeated one witnessed as others entered or exited as I sat eating the fried dough in a small green space just down the street. No doubt earning their accolades on the Maple Bacon, Voodoo Doll and oddities like a penis shaped Doughnut or a "Maple Blazer Blunt" it was with the latter that tasting began and although the sprinkle encrusted frosting was pleasant the rest was little more than a yeasty sugar doughnut overwhelmed by the flavor of oil, the raised Snickers-esque version a bit more successful as far as raised-rings go, though largely as a result of the sweet and salty accents. Onward to cake options, both the fresh classics proving that Voodoo can indeed execute respectably in the setting of fresh oil and a timeless recipe, further bites were invested in one of the "Rapper Trilogy" as Detroit's native son found himself immortalized with mini M&Ms lodged in a too-thick layer of white frosting. Having long wondered how the marshmallow topped Tangfastic would fair since the childhood favorite beverage-based version was unavailable during my stay in the Pacific Northwest suffice it to say that those fancying Push-Ups or Hostess' Orange Cupcakes are likely to be enamored while others should consider ordering something else. read more

3 stars for Voodoo Donuts. Were they bad? No. Were they amazing and worth the 15 minute drive to Colfax? No. And they are certainly not worth the 2-3 hour wait I have been reading in other reviews. Thankfully, I was the first person there for their 6am opening so there was no wait. For the half dozen, I decided I'd purchase 3 of their unique creations and 3 donut standards so I could compare the actual doughnut. For the unique/funky donuts I ordered: the Captain my Captain, Old Dirty Bastard and the No Name Doughnut. For the standards I ordered: the Sprinkle doughnut, Chocolate cake doughnut and the Old Fashioned Doughnut. I cut them all into fourths so we could sample all of them without going into diabetic shock. The two with vanilla frosting (Captain my Captain & Sprinkles), were cloying. I could barely eat the bites of them let alone a whole doughnut. The Old Dirty Bastard and No Name were both tasty, the Old Fashioned and Chocolate doughnut were nondescript and honestly, tasted like a King Soopers doughnut. In fact, these donuts are all about the toppings and fillings, strip those away and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between Voodoo and King Soopers. Finally service. The woman who assisted me was friendly enough for 6am, but she muttered back answers when I asked questions and I could barely understand her. This was frustrating because I couldn't read the teensy tiny font on their menu. Additionally, she got the chocolate doughnut wrong. I asked for a chocolate cake doughut and I meant a cake doughnut with chocolate frosting. What I got was a chocolate doughnut with glaze...probably my least favorite doughnut. I double checked their website just now and I'm not sure where the communication gap was since I asked for the correct item per their website's menu. To sum it up:I went to Voodoo Doughnuts to treat our house guests and to see if they lived up to the hype. I don't think they do. I think they are perfect as a novelty after a concert at one of the venues on Colfax or a night out at the bars. However for a dozen as a family or office treat? There are better options all over town. read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Donuts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Sometimes I feel like the era of trendy donut shops has reached its peak. I've been to the Portland location and live here in Denver and I can tell you that both locations are almost the same regarding the product but the difference is sometimes here in Denver you'll run across employees who have more attitude for some reason (come on it's just a donut shop so stop with the attitude)... My favorite donuts are the mango tango and the grape ape so I haven't really tried anything else. Since I already know what I want going into the store are usually don't care for the employees but I just go in and out as quick as I can and don't forget cash. read more

Let me preface this review by saying how much I absolutely love sweets. Especially donuts. I do not love voodoo donuts. Both times I was lucky enough to try them, they were brought into my office by someone else. I've gone to the store a couple of different times, but I don't do lines. So we left. This most recent time I had a donut from voodoo it was the voodoo doll. I ate it, then excuse me when I say this, spent the rest of the day burping an oily glaze after taste. It was definitely gross. The previous time of eating the donut I got a bad stomach ache the rest of the day and so did my coworker. No more voodoo for me. Rather eat King soopers donuts. read more

I'd been to the location in downtown Portland and loved it, so imagine my surprise and delight when I found out that there was one in Denver! Not surprisingly, it was in a funky area of town (the only place during my trip to Denver where I saw people with colored hair) and there was a dispensary next door--a marriage made in stoner heaven, apparently. There was quite a line when we got there around 9pm or so, which was ok because it gave us time to take a good look around and also figure out what we wanted. Turned out, we wanted everything, lol. My four friends and I ended up ordering 13 donuts, which came to almost $40! Yes they're pricey but they're made with good, fresh ingredients and held up pretty well for the next few days. I don't remember ALL the donuts we got, but the standouts for me were the Portland Cream, the Dirty Ole Bastard, and, of course, their maple bacon bar--mm. Their signature Voodoo Donut I'm not a huge fan of--I don't like jelly filling but I do love the idea of a donut voodoo doll. I was bummed they were all out of The Gay Bar.

Voodoo Doughnut - Box of voodoo - Donuts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I know this may be blasphemous, especially being from Portland, but while these doughnuts have fabulous toppings, the doughnuts themselves aren't that good. They're quite heavy and dense, without a good doughy flavor, and with a drier texture. I really wanted to love this place and take some of that PacNW pride to all of my loved ones but there's other great doughnut shops that VooDoo can't quite compete with. Again, the toppings are SUPER fun and more of a stunning presentation than any other doughnut you'll buy, especially as a gift. But for eating, I'd go to 5280 donuts or (dare I say it) Lamar's. Just better all around. read more

You know you are in trouble when you are grabbing donuts at 1am! Is it because of your stomach? Is it because you didn't eat anything? Or is it because someone placed a curse on us all. Does someone hold our strings and tell us what to do? If so, that person holding our strings are telling us a great thing. Whatever ritual they have placed on us, lead us the dangerous, but so filling home of Voodoo Doughnuts in Denver. After arriving from Denver and checking into our hotel, my fiance and I roam the streets of Denver at 1am. The nightlife is booming at the "Mile-High" City. We were craving food and not because of a medicinal nature. We wanted to visit the famous donuts that we heard about in Oregon. We welcome Voodoo Doughnuts in our Denver trip. Located on the south side of E Colfax near the Park Ave/Franklin St. intersection, you will find the pink building with a logo with a man and a top hat. We had parked a few block to the west at a famous kitchen. Most residents know what that kitchen is. So, parking is very limited in the area. You may have to find a spot in the surrounding area. Before you walk in, you will notice a line before you even get in. Voodoo already has poles to control the crowds since they are open 24/7. Please note that they will HIGHLY emphasize that they are a CASH BUSINESS ONLY! However, there is an ATM onsite. Glad, we had cash because this trip would have been a very short trip. When we walked in, it was so busy! So much going on. High emphasize on Bob Marley though. You will see the menu board with the many offerings that Voodoo Doughnuts has to offer. The much more interesting thing is the display case of the donuts going in circles. They will definitely make you go in trance and forget about a lot of things. Someone got us out of that trance and his name was Raymond. Raymond was a pleasure to be our Voodoo server of the early morning. He was EXTREMELY helpful with our selection. My fiance got a couple seducing items. She got the Voodoo Double Bubble ($1.75) and Grape Ape ($1.75). Just like my fiance, when you come in to a place that has the name Voodoo, you have to order something with the name. I got myself the Voodoo Doll ($2.25) and an Arnold Palmer ($1.30). An Arnold Palmer?! That sounds crazy! Before getting to the review of the doughnuts, the wait was about 20 minutes and AT 1AM! I see that the ordering process is long because of many people who are not familiar with the doughnut ingredients. Some of us had to visit the website to see what they were. However, you will have the one customer ask many questions about each doughnut. However, each doughnut is served fresh. With each freshness, they don't stay great that long. So, Raymond suggested that you put them in the refrigerator when you get these bad boys home. Now onto the doughnuts! I don't know where to begin. I loved the Arnold Palmer! Taste of the vanilla frosting with sweet tea and lemonade sugar n a cake doughnut. Don't know why there is a cereal "O" on it though. Many hours later, my fiance had me try her Voodoo Double Bubble. OK, I don't know how they did it, but it tastes like BUBBLEGUM! Gum on a doughnut?! Normally, I would expect it under my shoe, but never on a doughnut! Next up is the signature, Voodoo Doughnut Doll. Although it is dangerous, it is so SWEET! Each Voodoo Doll looks different. For some reason, mine looked like I had two cooked eggs as buttons and white beard. Could it be Santa? So, I broke the arms off and gave it agony before taking off the pretzel that is stabbing it's neck. What is it filled with?! Not blood, but raspberry jelly! So GOOD! After visiting Voodoo Doughnut, it wasn't because the doughnuts that I want to come back, but it was because of Raymond. I told him that we just arrived and welcomed us to both Denver and Voodoo. He gave us extra doughnuts to take home. Yes! Take home to SoCal. BTW, doughnuts are allowed on airplanes to take home. Raymond is one of the many friendliest people in Denver that we've met. When our total came out to $7 and change, we were surprised. We used the change to give as a tip. If you are in Denver, bookmark Voodoo Doughnuts, you'll be taken in one way or another!

On Sunday mornings I like to eat doughnuts. When I woke up in Denver visiting a friend on Sunday morning, my handy dandy Yelp app showed I was in walking distance to Voodoo! I arrived around 9:15AM and waited for about 15 minutes until victory was mine. I'm glad I walked - street parking looked scarce to find. Don't come here planning to sit at a table to enjoy - Voodoo is in the doughnut business only. I ordered the peanut butter/chocolate one. I think it was called the dirty b******.... I'll stick to to the pb + choco doughnut. I payed the nice employee around 3 bucks, walked out and hopped in an uber to go to a coffee house a couple miles down to enjoy while sitting.

Voodoo Doughnuts is a perfect example of how the media can manipulate people. We have all heard about Voodoo from the Food Network, Travel Network, or on social media outlets. They talk about Voodoo doughnuts as if it's a place which was lifted down from Mt. Olympus as a gift to mankind, from the gods. I have been to the one in Portland and now the one in Denver. Guess what....? Voodoo Donuts is nothing more than your average doughnut shop. They have unique doughnuts but that doesn't make them exceptional. I bought a dozen handpicked doughnuts so that I could sample all of the crazy ideas. I got a maple bar with bacon, doughnuts covered in cereal, and even one that was neatly decorated as a voodoo doll. They all looked really awesome but nothing like the ones that you think you are getting in the display case. While the doughnuts look exciting, the uniqueness ends at decoration. The dough, filling, and glazes all taste the same as any other doughnut you have ever eaten. Without the fruit loops and lucky charms there would be nothing special. Unlike the Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland, this location had a very short line. There was 3 people that were in front of us when we walked in the door. For some reason, despite the short lines they still had the stanchions out. Making you feel like you are waiting in a line at Disneyland. The process to order donuts is entirely too long! and they only take cash. It's the 21st century and this is supposed to be a successful business. I think it's time to embrace the method of payment that most people use nowadays. The other thing that I think makes this place frustrating is that they have no seating for their customers. You have to take your food and leave. This seemed really weird for a doughnut shop. I would think that some people would enjoy sitting down with a doughnut and a coffee as opposed to eating on the run or in their car. Overall, I was very unimpressed with Voodoo Doughnuts. The ideas and decorations seemed more like a gimmick than a higher quality product. I guess going here is more to just say you did it. The average person will probably end up trying it once and then venturing out to a different place to fulfill their doughnut craving. Without the media attention Voodoo got, I would imagine there wouldn't be one here in Denver. read more

Bienvenidos to Portland's Rocky Mtn incarnation of Voodoo Doughnuts (they use the more formal spelling). Voodoo's opening is kind of like when Le Bakery Sensual opened up, lo, these many years ago, selling their very graphic and funny confections done in anatomically accurate (and even enhanced:) format. It also reminds me of when Krispy Kreme came to Highlands Ranch over a dozen years ago, and cars and people lined up for what seemed like hours to grab a dozen donuts, dripping with goo, and hot out of the oven. So, in these ways, Voodoo Doughnuts is repeating Denver's bakery history. But, while they serve creative and really good donuts, I think in the long run they're going to have to do a little more to keep the crowds rolling in. At Dunkin's / Lamar's / Winchell's Donuts you can grab a cup of coffee along with getting your sugar buzz. But I didn't see that option offered at Voodoo. While folks might make the stop now just to see what all the hype's about, my guess is that in the future customers aren't going to want to make yet another stop at a separate coffee shop in order to round out their wonderfully nutritious breakfast (lunch, dinner, or whatever). As for me? I'm a fan. Their donuts really do show more character and flavor than Dunkin or Winchells and maybe even Lamars. As for Krispy Kreme . . . well, prolly nothing fried in oil is quite as good as one of those bad boys, right out of the oven. But Voodoo comes close, and I'll certainly be (occasionally) returning when my jeans are feeling loose. (Yeah, right. As if I'm really going to wait for that to happen . . . :) read more
