Baker's Dozen

This is my absolute favorite place for donuts. Great price & friendly service.I'm in & out in the morning if I stop by for a treat on my way to work.They have great cake donuts & yeast donuts.I enjoy the Crumb Cake & Sugar Raise

Bites of joy. Great donuts. Great service. Great location off highway. Clean inside. Do know they don't accept Apple Pay.

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Bakers Dozen yet. I'm a doughnut snob...and very particular about raised yeast donuts vs. cake donuts. I find cake donuts to be too dense and sit heavy in my stomach. Duck Donuts seems to be everyone's go-to and the #1 recommendation when I asked around for the best donuts. Bakers Dozen! Amazing. Yes, they have cake donuts too but their yeast (raised) donuts are beyond! Many flavors to choose from -- glazed, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and maple frosted. Plus every now and then they have the same donuts but with sprinkles! Yum! The donuts are fluffy and practically melt in your mouth. The icing did not taste like dye like many of the chain donut shops. BUT, the biggest surprise for me was the APPLE FRITTER. OH. EM. GEE. I'm not a fan of any dessert that contains fruit. Especially hot/cooked fruit. The apple fritter was crunchy on the outside and perfectly light on the inside. Each time you take a bite, I'd get that perfect tiny pop of frying oil which says "FRESH". Even if you don't like apple fritters, try this! It turned me around and I'm now obsessed. They are one of their most popular items and they sell out quickly so make sure to go early.

I was looking so forward to visiting this place. I've lived here 3 years and would think about going then just would change my mind. I decided to go today because I have a friend visiting so I brought a half dozen home. Service was fast as there were only a few in the store. The donut cases look appealing and clean. I got a filled raspberry glazed, filled lemon glazed, Boston cream, chocolate glazed, strawberry glazed, and a chocolate frosted sour cream. Right off the bat, I was disappointed. The raspberry and lemon filling have an off putting flavor so I am assuming it's purchased elsewhere and not made in house. While the raised doughnuts are nice and soft, they really are too commercial for me. I can tell it's not a homemade doughnut like my momma would make. The sour cream doughnut was good but the frosting on top ruined it for me. It was way too sweet and I was wishing I had gotten plain ones. Overall, if you aren't spoiled like I am by enjoying homemade doughnuts all your life, you may love these. If I was craving a doughnut I'd go back and get a plain doughnut. Not a bad place at all, just me liking homemade flavors and not factory made fillings.

Hands down best donuts in all the land! Love them. We drive 20 minutes just for these donuts!

This little gem is a diamond in the rough! FRESHLY made donuts. We were so geniunely pleased with our selection. The donuts holes are warm puffs of cloud that melt in your mouth. We also had raised and cake donuts that were spectacular! I especially enjoyed the simple sugar raised donut that seemed so light and yet so delicious. 100% recommend this place.

It will always been my favorite donut shop! Stopped in early Sunday afternoon and still had a large selection of donuts left.

If you're looking for a good doughnut experience, look no further than Bakers Dozen From the moment you step inside, the sweet, warm aroma of freshly fried dough envelops you, promising something truly special. I opted for the classic glazed doughnut, a maple glazed doughnut and a vanilla glazed doughnut and they did not disappoint.The first bite was pure bliss--the glaze crackled lightly, giving way to an incredibly soft, airy interior. The dough was perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and had just the right amount of chew. It was everything a doughnut should be: simple, yet utterly satisfying.

The best donuts in Raleigh!!!Always fresh, great variety and priced nicely.Sometimes they sell out so call first if visiting late in the day.If somebody picks up a dozen (get 13 donuts) and brings into the office, consider it your lucky day!

Maybe on a curve - compared to other small business donut shops in the area - this is a great place, but my experience was just average honestly.Yes, the donuts were good - light and fluffy - but nothing so unique that couldn't be found elsewhere. Also, the coffee was watery and needs a better/darker. The prices for both were decent . The service was average though - employees weren't that friendly - and the vibe was average; pictures showed tables and chairs, but it's strictly an order-pickup type place.Overall, this place was just okay. I'm surprised by the raving reviews. I've eaten at many donut shops, and compared to them it's just average; maybe for the area it's great but I rate it a 3.5/5.
