First time trying these donuts and they did not disappoint! we got half a dozen (around 19 bucks, a little pricey but still a fun breakfast treat)…our favorites were the apple cinnamon sugar and dark chocolate coconut. The ginger glazed holy cannoli was yummy as well, very rich. I love that you don’t feel like you go into a sugar coma after eating one. However, I would recommend to eat them the day you get them - much better fresh than the next day!

Stopped in to see what a potato donut was about. From Long Island we have Dunkin (which I hate) or fresh bakery style donuts. Staff was nice. First impressions was the display case. We intended on only grabbing one but we bought 6. They looked amazing. The size was huge and slight weight to them. The outside had a surprising crisp but a little greasy taste. Didnt repeat too bad comparing to DD. Nothing to really go crazy about.

My husband I have been going to the Auburn location at least once a week. Not only are the donuts amazing so are the staff. Every time they are pleasant and actually get your order right! The faculty is also really clean. 🍩🤎

Best donuts ever! Great family experience! The crisp to the potato donuts is amazing. The Maine blueberry is a must try, but the blueberry lemon is even better! The lemon has a nice tart taste to it, and you can see the lemon zest in the icing. The coffee donut taste was on point and exactly recreates the taste of drinking a cup of good coffee. Highly recommend and will definitely go back.

Great staff and donuts! Must try their donuts when you are there, along with the coffee! Maine views and weather helps too!

I am glad you opened in Auburn because buying a 12 pack in Scarborough ensured that by the time I could deliver the donuts to work in Auburn there would only be 10 donuts and I would be in a food coma. You guys are the best. Your team at the Auburn location is stellllllar! Thank you for being in Maine and thank you for your glorious donuts!

Tried three different donuts (fresh) and each were so dense my jaw hurt. Not sure why all the hype? Cute vibe though.

They have amazing filling doughnuts and hot foods. But best of all they use coffee icecubes in cold coffee drinks! The price may be a bit more but they are worth every penny!!

Review №13

A little unclear about how they have so much hype. Definitely a cool atmosphere, cool flavors and the line moved decently fast but we got 3 donut flavors and a coffee and spend 20 bucks for squishy, cold and pretty flavorless donuts and a meh coffee. For me, not worth it.

Be prepared to wait a bit to get your donuts, that being said, they were fresh, delicious, and every bit as good as their Portland sites

Always good donuts.

Review №29

The donuts are very good and the potato gives them a character that stands out. They have a lot of great flavors and as the father of a child with dairy allergies, I appreciate the vegan options.The only reason for 4 stars is that the donuts are quite pricey ... Like $2.50 each if I recall correctly. Georgios right down the street is a more cost-effective option, with Holy Donut a great luxury option from time to time.

Though the line was large it moved very quickly. Even though it was raining quite hard, there was a gentleman outside with updated menus letting us know the wait time and directing traffic. Everyone was super friendly, order came out quick and my taste buds are happy!! Great job your first week so happy to have you town!!

Review №34

Ew. Im sure the fruit and regular donuts are good but... Dont get the broccoli or the bacon and cheese ones. Too much donut to filling ratio and the sweetness is kind of gross. Wasnt expecting the amount of sugar for a broccoli and cheddar donut.

Got to our local Holy Donut and Lo and Behold at 4;15 pm they were closed. I was like, really? On a Friday? Weekend starts and they are not open to sell donuts for enjoyment. So I would have to drive 45 minutes each way, to and from, to get them on a Saturday. Nope, not cool. Lost me as a customer!!!
