Duck Donuts

★★★★☆ 4.4 (115)

"I have driven by Duck Donuts many times and have always wanted to stop in. I finally stopped in last week with my friend after eating lunch. The donuts are made to order, which is really cool. You can watch them fry your donuts and then decorate them. They have a huge menu with so many different flavors and toppings, and you can also customize your own doughnut icing & toppings. The base donut is vanilla cake.My friend and I shared a box of 6 donuts in the following flavors:- lemon icing with strawberry drizzle- blueberry pancake- cookies and cream- maple bacon- cinnamon bun- chocolate icing with sprinklesMy favorites were the first three, but they were all really tasty! They are really sweet and fun flavors, but I appreciate that they are a normal size donut, rather than an overly huge one."

Sweet-Stack Creamery

★★★★☆ 4.4 (398) • $$

"NICE CREAM! A black owned ice cream shop right down the road from GSU. The whole street is what we like to call "resturant row" there is so many options all walking distance from one another. I promised my partner I would buy him ice cream and we decided on this business as it was fairly close to our hotel. Once we came inside we were told about their donut ice cream sandwich. Though that sounded delicious it also sounded like a LOT of food. We each got a scoop. My partner got praline and I got the Cuban coffee ice cream. We each got a different topping on top too. Don't get me wrong it was a good spot with flavorful cream. However, there was no seating inside. This is a need especially since a lot of tourists come around this area for food. I wasn't super impressed by this ice cream experience."

The Salty Donut

★★★★☆ 4.2 (166) • $$

"YOU DRIVE ME GLAZY! Salty Donut, a pretty popular donut shop across the south/south west. Though it is a chain they are particular about the cities/states where their shops open. My partner and I will TRAVEL to a shop if needed. If that alone does not prove how good their donuts are then I don't know what will. We first were introduced to Salty down in Miami. But now as we've moved from FL we don't get to treat ourselves to these sweet treats as often as before. The first thing you need to know about The Salty is if you plan on going you need to arrive when they first open their doors. This is when you will get the best options. If you go later in the day there will not be much left. When we came into the Buckhead location we walked in and they only had one tray of donuts left. No matter what donut you get they will always be super sweet and super delicious. So if you want options then get there early, but if you don't care, then go whenever and there will be at lease one option. Service was quick and super easy. The donut they had on this occasion was the Cookie Monster donut. Which had a blue glaze. Cookie topping and filled with a cookies and cream style cream. I loved my experience here and definitely recommend stopping in for a sweet treat. Everyone needs a #treatyourself type day."

The Salty Donut

"If you're near the city of Atlanta, this charming cafe is a great spot for you to check out, especially for those looking for a cozy ambiance paired with delicious treats. The moment you open the door, you're gonna be invited by the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the sight of mouthwatering baked goods.The star of the show is undoubtedly Providence, the talented barista who makes some amazing beverages. I had the pleasure of trying her two favorites - the velvety smooth vanilla ice latte and the refreshing matcha latte, both of which left me craving for more- especially the vanilla ice latte.Now, let's talk about those donuts. With a variety of flavors to choose from, I indulged in six heavenly creations, but the strawberry shortcake stole the show. Its delicate balance of sweetness and tanginess and hints of lemon zest, left my taste buds dancing with delight.They offer parking validation for up to an hour at the adjacent garage, along with ample street parking options. Whether you prefer to cozy up indoors or bask in the sunshine on the patio, there's plenty of seating to accommodate all preferences."

Donnie’s Donuts

★★★★★ 4.9 (34)

"There isn't anything subliminal about this establishment... the smells of sugary greatness are vented to the outside of the building and you can smell it in the air for several blocks. There is no neon flashing sign needed- it beckons you in immediately.Our server was very helpful and answered our questions with detail. She helped us chose 6 different donuts to go. We were thrilled with the flavors and freshness!"

Five Daughters Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.4 (144) • $$

"My hotel was just across the street, so I decided to stop in for some doughnuts on my last day. I had the Purist doughnut, but the vegan version and it tasted just like a regular ole doughnut - which is a compliment, I promise. I didn't taste the difference between this doughnut and a regular, non-vegan one so kudos to them! I also had the Blueberry and Lemon, which was filled with a deliciously tart curd filling. Staff was very nice and helpful when I had questions."

Mochibees

★★★★☆ 4.2 (26)

"Donut worry, bee happy Atlantans.. We finally have mochi donuts! After much anticipation, Mochibees finally opened their first location less than a month ago. Shortly after, they opened a second inside HMart in Doraville. Both locations have been selling out everyday since and for good reason. The Duluth location often sold out within hours.Lucky for me, I found myself near Doraville one Saturday afternoon. To my surprise, they weren't sold out yet and there wasn't a long line. I quickly ordered a half dozen, one of each flavor. A half dozen is $15 before tax. The staff was very friendly.The flavors change daily and there's usually 6 different ones. At the time of my visit, they offered original, chocolate, fruity pebbles, salted caramel pretzel, cookies & cream, and matcha oreo. I exercised a lot of self control and didn't take a single bite until I got home. I couldn't open the box fast enough when I walked in the house.The mochi dough is perfectly chewy with a slight crunch on the outside. The flavors are subtle and complement the fried dough. My favorites were the cookies & cream and matcha oreo. They're so light and before you know it, you've already eaten an entire box. Kidding. I shared, but they were gone within minutes. My only regret is not ordering two boxes!"

Sublime Doughnuts

★★★★☆ 4.1 (1376)

"Sublime donuts are a must get every time I'm on this part of town. They're it your typical glazed donuts with sprinkles - these are the real deal. The 3 flavors I always get are peach fritter, strawberries and cream, and Reese's peanut butter cups. The donuts have a nice chew and not too sweet for my liking. But of these 3, my absolute fave is the Reese's peanut butter cup. The middle of the donut has the peanut butter filling and glazed with chocolate, topped with pieces of peanut butter cup. They have some seating inside. They also offer coffee and have a fridge with water, milk and juice. Their donut price ranges from $2.50-$2.75 I believe. Best part about this place? It's open 24 hours. Get a donut craving at 4 am? Need a little pick me up after working late or while studying? Sublime is the spot."

"Popped over here as we had satisfied our savory taste buds. I got their cookies n cream donut which was soft, chewy and sweet enough. Staff was nice and packaging was pretty straight forward. Would order from here again."

Hell Yeah Gluten Free

★★★★★ 4.5 (164) • $$

"Gluten agrees with me but Hell Yea is just a really f*cking good bakery. All their stuff is gluten free and they also have some stuff that's dairy free and others that are vegan. They're clearly labeled. I definitely recommend going early because they do run out of stuff and the line can be pretty long. However, it is worth it!I got the following:1.) vegan curry turnover Delicious. Tastes kinda like a samosa. 10/10 would get again 2.) blueberry cream cheese Danish Good sh*t3.) earl grey sconeThe consistency is spot on for the scone and the earl grey taste is in the icing. Very yummy"

Revolution Doughnuts

★★★★☆ 4.4 (316) • $$

"I popped in on a Saturday morning since I was in the area. I have always loved Revolution-I have had their doughnuts at several festivals in the area but never had a chance to stop by their storefront. Since it was a Saturday morning, the line was out the door(!) but moved quickly. The employees were friendly and spoke with a smile. Imagine my surprise when they had a brunch doughnut (which worked for me because I had not had breakfast that morning. I also indulged in a chocolate hazelnut almond flour doughnut which was surprisingly delicious! I don't know why I was surprised because I don't think I've had a bad doughnut from this place.Hopefully I'll get another chance to stop by and linger next time. There are a few seats on the inside for you to sit and enjoy your treat if you wish, or just take a stroll outside. Either way I'm sure I'll be back soon!"

Five Daughters Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.3 (372) • $$

"When I came across this little spot, I was immediately drawn in by the vibes and amazing looking donuts in the display. By the time I got to the front of the short line, I had my eyes on nearly a dozen donuts. Just by looking at them, I didn't know some of them were cronuts until I brought the box back to my table of friends, one of whom said, "They do cronuts very well!" I became skeptical because I'm not a fan of cronuts.... THESE, however, totally blew me away! They were fluffy and flavors were well balanced. I'm completely addicted to them. I also love that they offer vegan and gluten-free options."

Atlanta Donuts

★★★★★ 4.9 (29)

"Best blueberry donut I think I've ever had!! So fluffy and really tastes like blueberry. The croissant sandwich is giving McDonald's vibes. It's missing some butter or hot sauce- something. The maple curler donut was good but we came at 11am so it wasn't as fresh. The jalapeño kalache isn't spicy. The bread is to die for! Kinda sweet but has a strong crust with a fluffy inside. I would definitely come back earlier."

Sublime Doughnuts

★★★★☆ 3.8 (457) • $$

"Came here for some coffee and doughnuts. This venue is not on the main road and it looks closed at night but it is definitely open since it is a 24/7 establishment. They have a dim lit sign that shows they are open.I ordered the Fresh strawberries and cream doughnut, nutella doughnut, and oreo doughnut. The strawberries was the best donut and actually had fresh strawberries in it. The Oreo has plenty of oreo crumbles but is not spectacular. The nutella tastes great but will take all the moisture out your mouth.The doughnuts are decent and it did the job.The staff was kool and fast with service."

Hell Yeah Gluten Free

★★★★★ 5 (6)

"I've only had Hell Yeah one time and from the other location in Inman Park. That was a while ago, but from what I understand, they are still really prone to selling out and it's best to order ahead online.I had planned to meet a friend who's gluten-free for breakfast on a Saturday morning at 9 am, and I thought we should probably order ahead when they open at 8. Their online ordering didn't open until maybe closer to 8:30 (it said it would open when they opened at 8), so that was a little frustrating to have to keep refreshing the page. But it did end up opening and we were able to place our orders. When we got there at 9:15, there was not a line and it seemed like they had plenty of inventory, but not sure if it was just a weird day?I had cookies and cream doughnut, and and oatmeal cream pie, and both were heavenly! My friend had a bacon egg and cheese biscuit and said that it was amazing.You order inside, and they have two tiny tables out front, but there's no other seating besides that. So it's more of a take away type place!"

Cafe Rivkah

★★★★★ 4.7 (51) • $

"Unusually, I did not research this place much in advance, and it was the sort of place that takes a bit to wrap your head around, because they offer so much. A bakery and an ethnically diverse cafe menu left me spoiled for choice. I ended up settling for both a salad and a donut. By the time you consider the soft cheese on top of the salad, the roasted potato side, and the cream-filled donut, it was a pretty indulgent breakfast.The donut was rich and not overly sweet, allowing the hazelnut flavor to shine through. What really sold me was the dressing that came with the salad, a sweet and spicy mix that I've had some version of before but could not place. The potatoes were delicious too, and the London Fog, which the young staff working there announced they would learn how to make, came out fine.Other menu options ranged widely. I think most dietary needs could be accommodated, and most palates could be excited, by a shop that clearly is a product of some considerable thought."

The Salty Donut

★★★★☆ 4.3 (83)

"Best donut shop in Atlanta! We were visiting from out of town and stopped in one morning to grab a few donuts to try. We ordered a brown butter salt, whipped lemon ricotta, and a salted caramel chocolate chip cronut. All of them were absolutely delicious."

Donut City

"I made the decision to only eat donuts that were worth it, and these are definitely worth it. Super fresh and yummy. Large selection. Fair prices."

Sub-Base Sandwich Shoppe/Dandy Donuts

★★★★☆ 4.4 (124)

"On the recommendation of a running bud, I came here to try their Apple Fritters, and also ordered a BLT sandwich. Not much to speak of from the interior, but the service by two Vietnamese mom and pops was splendid. The apple fritter was definitely caked in glazing and a fried on the darker side of the burn spectrum. Also got some cinnamon donuts and they were also good. The BLT on wheat hit the spot. Good experience!"

Hero Doughnuts & Buns

★★★★☆ 4.3 (222) • $$

"A ton of delicious donut shops are popping up in Atlanta but Hero is definitely my HERO. When Hero moved into Summerhill, I was skeptical about a donut chain coming into Atlanta - and boy was I wrong. I love a soft brioche donut and Hero Doughnuts are definitely soft and fluffy. Grab a kolache (jalapeño is my fave!) or a homewood donut (strawberries and creme is a classic combo). Parking is available in the back and on the street, but there's also plenty of free public parking all around Summerhill. PRO TIP #1: cinnamon rolls are only available on Saturdays, so get them before they sell out! PRO TIP #2: they've got mimosas and aperol spritzes for $7 on the menu on weekends which is the perfect way to start the day with a donut. Can't wait to stop in again for more brioche donuts and brunch cocktails soon!"

Da Vinci's Donuts

★★★★☆ 4.3 (223) • $

"I am normally not a cake donut fan, but these round treats worked for me. The shop is locate din a small strip mall with an ample amount of parking available. The staff there was very friendly and helpful.There donuts are a bit smaller than the average sized donuts that you are use to. They have a bunch of exotic flavors to choose from including Maple Bacon, Cinnamon Roll, French Toast, Strawberry Shortcake, Fruity Pebble, M&M, Birthday Cake and Caramel Crunch.The shop has a few tables and chairs to sit and dine. It is a very clean and tidy shop, but I took my treats to go. I got a dozen for me and my crew. The donuts were fresh and very tasty. I really liked them and remember, this is coming from a yeast donut guy. I recommend giving this place a try. They have some very unique donut creations that happen to be very tasty. I do not know how I feel about their size though. On one hand them being small may help me from eating too much. But on the other hand I just end up eating more of teh donuts to make up for them being a smaller serving. Oh well, there could be worse problems to have ai guess."

Cupcakin’ Bake Shop

★★★★★ 4.6 (19)

"These "artisan cupcakes" have to be hands down the best cupcakes I had in Atlanta. So moist and decadent. It's not too sweet, but very pungent with flavor. I started off with the carrot cake, and my taste buds were revenging for more, so I tried the key lime next, and I was enthralled. Have you ever taken a bite of something so delectable you stopped and had to just look at it for a minute like WTH?! Eye balling my next little victim, I had to give it a rest because my waist line wouldn't allow it. Cupcakin has a variety of different flavors that I don't normally see at other bake shops in the metro area. This black owned shop is by of Berkeley California and landed in Colony Square in Midtown. Move over, Camicakes, there's a new kid on the block. In the words of Teddy P. " I think I better let it go. It looks like another cupcake TKO. LOL...Highly Highly Highly recommend when in Colony Square. You're welcome!"

Ray's Donuts

★★★★★ 4.6 (112) • $

"We went to Ray's Donuts at 11:45 am on a Monday. They had most of the donuts available, but they were running out - even on a Monday! So get there early! The person working was so sweet and patient! We ordered a half dozen, but she gave us one for free! She was wearing a mask, but masks are not required for customers.It's SO cheap! We got 6 donuts (plus the one for free) for $6.47!Here's what we got, in order of preference:- Cinnamon Sugar: Soo good. Perfection.- Blueberry Fritter: Very good!!- Glazed: Quality original donut!- Sour Cream: The one we got might've been a little overdone, burnt even, but I still liked the taste of it!- Boston Cream: The filling was good and I normally don't like filled donuts that much.- Chocolate Sprinkle: I didn't like the chocolate icing on top. Wouldn't recommend.- Strawberry Cake: Tasted very processed. Wouldn't recommend. Maybe the Blueberry Cake might've been better, but we didn't want to get two blueberry donuts.I definitely recommend Ray's Donuts! There are multiple locations, so find the one closest to you!"
