BEST DONUTS.I wish I could give this place 10 stars. Absolutely amazing donuts. Some of the best I’ve ever had. They have different flavors but run out quickly as the day goes. It is a small space which makes it a little tricky once there is a few people in the store but the donuts are one hundred percent worth it. If you are in Detroit, you have to stop here.
Looking forward to a fine comeback. In the meantime I wish the establishment nothing but the best. Rest well. We will see you down the road a piece as they say. Very sorry to hear of your loss. Mr. Timmer please rest in peace.
I have been going to Dutch Girl Donuts since I the 70s. My deepest condolences to the family. Thank you for the wonderful love you have spread throughout Michigan 💕💕💕💕 Pra
On Monday, June 21 at approximately 5:18pm, I went in with pure excitement to get some Dutch Girl Donuts. To my dismiss, yet understandable they were all out the traditional style donuts. And I was told rather rudely, “we close at 6pm”. I asked was it not possible to prepare a dozen.But to add insult to injury, she was on her telephone during my attempt to place an order. Once I told her that I’d give her my order once she got off phone, she became upset and short.There was a customer behind me who asked rather she was going to make anymore original donuts. She said NO but if you come tomorrow I’ll give you yours for free. I asked: “am not entitled to the same courtesy” her reply, “no ma’am”. I told her I was not intending to make her day bad or give her a hard time...I asked for an extra bag b/c as she could tell from me trying to understand what was available, that I was purchasing for someone else along for myself.As opposed to pass me an extra bag, she dismissed me and refused to pass an extra bag.Dutch Girl owners you are a Detroit Jewel and you should not accept disrespectful employees. I am a huge supporter of Detroit owned businesses but this experience has certainly put a damper in my appreciation and loyalty for tradition.
Great donuts and nice service. I feel awful for the workers here. Customers are a hair trigger away from losing it on the poor workers. They don’t do anything wrong. It’ll be something so simple as asking them for clarification when they’re not clear and the customers start to get super rude.
I went around11 am so I was hoping for fresh donuts. Sadly, they were far from it. Old donuts was what I received after buying 6 donuts all different kinda. This was my first time trying in 15 years them after I heard good things for years and it was a let down. I will try them one last time in hopes of giving a good review.
So they are temp. closed due to the fact of not finding enough employees...This story aired on FOX 2News (Detroit)....Donuts are awesome....parking is sketchy...although you can be in and out quickly....also you might want to have an extra dollar for the man outside that will give you a very nice compliment for you hard earned money....
I was in town visiting a friend, we started our day stopping by Dutch Girl Donuts for coffee and, yes a dozen donuts. Now Im neither a big sweets or regular donut person but I was informed that I absolutely had to try these. These donuts are seriously delicious! Those red velvet holes!? WOW! I had a difficult time stopping eating em. Everything we got was incredible.The other thing that impressed me was the staff. First Ive never been in a donut shop with bullet proof glass. Now that could be a little crazy, but the ladies that served us were genuinely concerned with making each persons visit a positive one, full of smiles and kind words. Surrounded by a neighborhood thats obviously struggling, Dutch Girl Donuts stands out as a welcoming beacon.
They got the best doughnut and hot cocoa used to be here a lot RIP timmer.
They need 2 open back up 😫😩🥺
Over the years the quality and service of this award winning donut shop has not changed still great service still amazing tasting donuts and coffee. Keep serving Detroit incredible donuts. We appreciate you Dutch Girl!💜
Came in on 8/6/2021.Mind you when i went last week they had the option of cash, OR if you use your card you have to spend at least $5.00. Im okay with that.Now when I cam in today, 8/6/2021, they had a cash only sign up, which I didnt see at first. The girl behind the counter with the braids and braces was very rude! First, No greeting. I asked for half a dozen, Cinnamon & twist. She yelled out no Cinnamon in a discourteous way & impolite tone. I then said, okay ill just have the twist. She bagged them and threw them onto the turn table. When I seen the dark screen on the card machine I asked if they took card, she pointed to the Cash only sign (which I did not see) and rolled her eyes. I just walked out. My family has been coming here for yearssss and the customer service is normally decent. But this woman was over the top for no reason.Now, the donuts are great when they are fresh. And the gentleman that works there is very nice. If I go there again, hes who I would prefer to serve me.3 stars bc they need people behind the counter with friendly faces, and ready to help.
Great people--BEST DANG DONUTS IN THE CITY. ❤💙💜💖💗💘CLOSED DUE TO NO HELP,
I like Dutch girl donuts. My question is why are you open so late and you only have glazed donuts and a few Bavarian cream. I think I went at 6 PM. It would be great to have an assortment to chose from. Maybe it is cheaper to serve glazed.
Awesome donuts. The acknowledged best in the area for many years. Always a line there.
I love going here the donuts 🍩 are always fresh and delicious. Word or warning. Call before you go. Got there after driving about 15 to 20 minutes only for them to be closed at 6:30 in the evening. When Google states they close at 10pm. Called the next morning (9:30am) to verify the hours the person that answered the phone says they close at 10pm or whenever they run out of donuts 🍩
Donuts are great, but the customer service is the worst! And to think I was there purchasing donuts to promote their company in a film (free of charge) to give back to small businesses in Detroit. Scratch them off the list. Will not be back!
Donuts are good however customer service isn’t the best. I’m not sure if the young lady with the faux locs and nose ring that assisted me was upset with someone, on her period, or what but either way having a bad attitude won’t work for me. I was quite nice to the young lady so the irritated look on her face and pressured tone used with me was unwarranted. Not looking for someone to be overly happy I just expect basic customer service and decency as a human.
The level of customer service I received Thursday morning, April 15, 2021 was absolutely HORRENDOUS!!! The lady servicing me was full of attitude from the moment she started helping me. Not to mention, I was extremely patient with her because she was alone and I was trying to help her by speaking slowly and simply allow her time to get my order together. Nevertheless, she was very short with me and her entire demeaner was wrong. What REALLY topped it all off was that she accused me of laughing (and Im only assuming at her demise, her situation at the time....I truly dont know) when I was having a brief exchange with another customer in the store and went completely off and proceeded to pick an argument with me. Longer story short, her customer service and professionalism or very lack thereof was a complete turnoff and it sucks because my family loves this place and frankly I dont plan on revisiting. I attempted to revisit the establishment in hopes of speaking to someone in charge. After calling four different times and not receiving an answer, when I went back this morning, I was met with the same person from yesterday who still had the same attitude all over her. So needless to say I left yesterday with my money and no donuts and today I left with no resolve but continued grave disappointment. I only hope for this establishments sake that they revisit what true customer service really is and whatever issues they may be battling personally they learn how to leave those issues at the door and handle the public accordingly. I will always remember that day and will tell anyone about it and unfortunately I will not be back.
Donuts are great but they dont open at 6 am.. They dont even look at you even though theyre in there, or answer the phone. At least let people know when youre going to open up. I really dont think thats too much to ask.
Someone really likes you when u get these doughnuts rom them best in the city you aint from Detroit if u dont know about Dutch girl
This place has really gone down, when it comes to customer service. I have arrived several times and the store is unable to open because there is no one able to run the register. Also, those running the register are often unprofessional and inappropriate. There have occasions where people have been verbally abusive and inappropriate. I am sitting outside the store right now at almost 8 am and they have yet to open. The donuts are still very good if you can get past the poor customer service. It was not always like this.
I visited this donut shop 3 times over the weekend for my neice. But they were excellent. Same taste from 20 years ago
Good donuts, but only two varieties at 8am on a Tuesday. Raisin and glazed.
Very disheartening. Can we post accurate, up to date information? According to Google, youre open. According to the blue ink typed sign on the window that says Temporary Hours, you open at 6 A.M. There are cars lined up outside. Im in anticipation of what Ill order and can see donuts on the speed racks inside... but the door is locked. 🙄 Its about 7:15 A.M. The employee inside yells out the shop will open at 11:30... What the?!?! I get things may happen which might cause a business to open later, but can we post correct info to keep customers informed- take a piece of paper and post a sign to the door, something?
I have been searching for really good yeast donuts since moving up to MI from TX, and these guys are 100% worth the drive to Detroit. I will go back just for them.
2019 food tour of Detroit and was interested to find that donuts are a Detroit food you must try. That’s when I found DGD, the best doughnuts I’ve found in the U.S. Perfect frosting that was sweet and crispy with a unique softness.and the dough is the literal definition of levitation. Must get a dozen or you have failed. 9.3 I work on a 10 point scale!
Ok I used to come here with my dad all the time. The donuts are great. That’s not the issue with this establishment. The issue is they are never open when they say they are. At 6 am and 7 am they still do not answer phone or open door even though their Facebook page claims they’re open. Customers have expectations and this place fails to meet those expectations. If you want good donuts there are several great donut spots around the area such as Donut Cutter, Apple Fritter, Daily Dozen, and the holy grail Krispy Kreme. You’re better off getting your donut fixin from one of those places.
Great inside,need to get rid of begger out side door,he is makeing. female customers very uncomfortable !
Place not open on Sunday. Does not answer the phone on Mon so?
I have went to dutch girl donuts for years and have enjoyed
Donuts are good but dont go out of your way to get them, youll be disappointed. Hours posted on Google or in the store window are not correct. Dont bother calling to ask when they open, they wont answer. I got there at 730am, doors locked I see donuts and workers. So I go back to the car and call they ignored the phone. They open whenever they want.
I always like supporting the small businesses....if everyone pitches in just a little bit, it will definitely be able to stay afloat..anyway I wasnt all tht Impressed I got hyped up by ton of people said place was bomb...I mean it wasnt bad or anything..Just expected it to be way better is all..
Something was different. Doughnuts didnt seem fresh. Which was strange. But will be back.
I went there for the first time today. Their hours online state they are open until 10:00 pm. I was there arond 4:45pm. Their store was closed and totally clean which means they closed long before then. In their store was a sign stating they were open until 6:00 pm. Very disappointed. You need to correct your times.
Great staff, great prices, old fashioned donuts !! Total Yum
Seriously? All of the donuts we got were dry and stale. Do they sell day old donuts? They sure didnt taste fresh. We were disappointed.
The donuts are good very tasty. However the shop need repairs.
I went there Tuesday and Wednesday and not only were they not open either day, but there is no sign letting you know when they are returning or if on vacation. This new management is terrible and the voicemail has been full for a year. There was always a sign letting you know if they would be closed for an extended period. Plus the baker seems to be angry ALL the time. Mouth poked out, scrowl on her face etc. Dont think I will be going back until they get their management together
It was during almost closing time. I have never taste so many artificial donuts in my life.
I have always love the donuts here. The donuts are always fresh and warm.
Just left this place after standing in line for about 15 minutes just for me to get inside and there were no donuts. So my issue is why didn’t someone come out to tell the folks who were waiting in line that there was no more donuts for the evening no regard for people time . This place have great donuts but definitely not worth wait or no regard for my time so I’m over it maybe this was a sign for me not to eat the donuts and risking diabetes!!
Great doughnuts they have been around for quite sometime. Just wish they were open on Sundays lol 😃
Fresh and delicious. Ive not been here in several years. Its okay to occasionally splurge.
Dry 🍩 I purchase custard I got cream yuck
The only place to get donuts in Detroit. Personal favorite is the cinnamon roles, but honestly every single thing Ive ever had there has been perfect. And the staff is family and pleasant always!
There is not a better donut that Ive had. Not Dunkin, not Krispy not Tim Hortons. Dutch girl has it down! Theyre small but full of flavor and theyre made fresh. In fact, you can watch them make it. It is a small place and not the easiest to notice from traffic. I come all the way from Hall road and 94 just to get my donuts from here and yes its worth it! The staff is friendly and professional and the place is clean as far as I can see and tell. This truly is a secret Detroit gem... why do I say its secret? Because I have yet to find anyone outside of Detroit who has heard of the place. (Sorry but my children damaged the donuts while in the car)
I have beenbto New York, Illinois, Georgia, Ogio and Floridas many. Bakeries. This one Dutch girl tops them all.
A Detroit treat... Some kids just cannot wait to have the strawberry frosted donuts... It brings tears of joy to watch them salivate and devour them... Mhh, mhhh good!
Please open back up
Ive been going to Dutch girls for the last 45 years. Its still my favorite donut shop. Only thing I was disappointed in was the donuts were smaller from back in the day.
Freshly made donuts all day!😋😋 yummy
Unbelievable donuts. I grew up here when I was a kid in 7 mile this place has always been the best nothing can top these donuts! Ever. Most amazing donuts Ive ever had in my entire life
Donuts are good and fresh. The service was extremely rude though.
The people were nice, the dounuts are smaller then I remembered.
I need to go earlier next time. The earlier, the fresher the donuts are
Been getting donuts here since a child...still good all these years
Donuts are not the same and the Customer Service is HORRIBLE! God forbid you ask a question, you will get told to just look at their menu board. Completely rude and very unprofessional. I would rather deal with the bums that stand outside by the front door!
These were not Dutch Girl donuts. Was there on opening day at 10:30am. The donuts were very stale. Could not have been made fresh. The flavors were terrible. Ive had Dutch Girl before so I knew how they tasted. Dont know what they did, but I wont be back. Thats really too bad.
I love these donuts they re the bomb if you can get them before they sell out.
Best doughnuts in the D!
Love coming her to get some fresh donuts been coming here since I was a child
Nice place but DPD have to get rid of that beggar out front.
My favorite place for donuts and coffee. Try the Lemon filled donuts so yummy!!!
A true Detroit gem 💎I always stop when Im in the area to support local small businesses. I absolutely love their windmill cookies.F. Y. IPack your patience and bring cash.
Dutch Girl Donuts has AWESOME donuts! They were fresh, delicious and a great variety to choose from. I would recommend stopping by to get a dozen or more.
Rude service and they lie about what time they open not good for business
Im not sure why Im writing a review: if you already know about Dutch Girl, you already know its the best - so whats left to say? Detroits decline has been unfortunate - but when in the midst of it all, you see little neighborhood shops from the Motor Citys heyday continuing to thrive - you know there is something extraordinary!
The doughnuts were amazing
This 🍩 donut was hot out the oven, fresh to the taste buds and delicious with latte. Talking about a HAPPYYYY girl in a HAPPYYYY world. Two high fives and a thumbs up. I ate all five at once. 💖😘 Hugs, kisses and great vibes to Dutch Girl Donuts
No one in Detroit Michigan can make donuts like Dutch girls they never have to serve coffee the donuts in the cookies are just fine keep up the good work Detroit rocks way to go dutch girls
This place is very nasty... went yesterday and all they had were donut holes and they were stale... the place was very nasty... flower still on the trays in the window... looks as if they have not cleaned this place in months... I want to like them but I just cant. Worker has very poor attitude and customer service...holes in the baseboards of the floors... just nasty... Im good
These are the best donuts 🍩 around!
Best doughnuts in Detroit!!! Fast friendly service and employees.. Whenever in area gotta stop!!!...
Donuts 🍩 are good but the service is sad ..especially this one little girl you notice I didnt say young lady..the problem I had was I was asking about the difference in a couple of their donuts and she gets very rude with me because Im asking some questions and another young lady notice how the little girl was acting stop her and finish the order to that young lady thank you..after all that I still spent my money supporting this business..
They just opened, new register equipment so please be patient. There are 5 people diligently working to bring us that delicious donut goodness. Social distancing, so 2 people in at a time. Welcome back guys!!! You were missed!!!
I called at 5 pm to order, a lady shouted at me we closed we closed. Bad experience.
Doughnuts are amazing and fresh....stop in and get a dozen you wont regret it....Diabetics stay away please
Best doughnuts 🍩 😋 😍 🙌 ever
I have been eating these donuts for over 30 years and the quality is not the same. I stopped by the first day they opened back up to give it a try and the blueberry donut tasted salty and the glazed twist wasnt the same. Maybe its the quality of the products.
Donuts are great service is good they just need to put on hair nets
Love the donuts but the people who hang out in front of the store panhandling is truly annoying. The cashier I had could of been better.
Horrible got the wrong order. Donuts not fresh at all. Never going back u get more varieties and freshness elsewhere
A treat. Good.
Best...donuts...EVER! Need I say more?! Ive been eating these donuts since I was a little girl when my Dad used to bring them home on Saturday mornings. Biting into one takes me back to my childhood. My favorite is the cinnamon raisin donut but grab any of them and you wont be disappointed.
