Alvernon Donut Shop

Best donuts ever like donut shops used to be. I highly recommend this place. If you love donuts as I do this is the place for you. People behind the counter were very nice.

Solid apple fritter, good old fashioned maple glazed & interesting glazed blueberry cake donut. I should've tried the crunchy blueberry cake donut, but 3 was my limit for today. Definitely the best donuts I've had in Tucson, friendly service, greeted me when I came in & said have a nice day when I left. Chatted with some friendly older customers who were talking politics & the weaponization of the govt against its citizens while opening the borders for people to illegally enter the country without repercussions. The coffee was nothing to write home about, but that's not why you come here anyways, not a bad cup though.Next time I'll try their maple bacon log donut. I would definitely say the full strip of bacon isn't my preference, gotta put crispy bacon crumbles over the entire thing. Maybe I'll snap a few pics next time as well.

National Donut Day is no joke in Tucson AZ! Already at 8 am there is a line of ppl out the door... they were ready though, tons of people on hand ready for orders! It was very overwhelming, everything looked amazing and fresh!!! I will probably keep this place in normal rotation! Crumb donut, one I typically am not a fan, was actually the stand out! Raspberry jelly donut was ok, not a fan of how bitter raspberries can taste, wish more places carried strawberry!

It was too early to get fried chicken, but was able to pick up a variety of donuts for my co-workers. I was very appreciative of the large and smaller sized versions of apple fritters and cinnamon roll. Besides those, I had bought some old fashions, jelly filled glaze, twists, and bacon maple bars. All of it was great. All were very soft, fresh, and not overly sweet. Sometimes, a lower quality donut will leave your mouth feeling greasy or leaves an odd feeling/taste and these didn't do that. Their yeast and cake donuts are really good and I like them a lot better than the competition in this area.Alvernon's isn't too close to my office and far away from home, but I am going to go back to try the fried chicken and any other savory items.

It was just melt in your mouth fabulous. I love donuts. I always have. They surprised me with adding a couple donuts holes. This is my new favorite donuts shop in town. Love them. Tried the chocolate frosted and I just was perfect. Makes me wanna go back and get more

I've been coming here for years. A hard working family business. I think they've been doing this like 25 years or so. They've had some vandalism recently.........I gave them a few extra dollars to put to fixing the windows.

I got the glazed, chocolate, and chocolate/coconut right when they opened today. Glazed was the best one. I was just visiting Tucson. Better than the chain places.

I haven't been here in over 5 years. I thought I'd written a review then and was going to update it today.I purchased a half dozen donuts from them about an hour ago because I remembered them being amazing.THEY ARE!They're as light, airy, and delicious as I remembered them being!Another review mentioned the cost being a bit higher than other donuts shops. This is true, but they're made fresh in-house daily and the quality is very high. I'll pay a bit extra for that any day!Highly recommend !

Best tasting and best priced donuts in midtown! Good variety and they even have broasted chicken! Always friendly service and a convenient drive-thru window. Clean and well-kept.

This donut shop makes some GREAT DONUTS! Continue reading if you want more details. The donuts are light and fluffy. They taste fresh. The staff member was friendly and attentive. Just a heads up they are updating their menu and they will post a new menu when completed. Thus, at the moment there is not a menu in the store to review. And yesterday they did not have any croissants - although I had chosen the croissant based on a previous photo of the menu here on Yelp. The little shop appears to be going through some transitions but it is delicious.
