About Carol Lee Donut Shop

Carol Lee Donut Shop is a hidden gem serving the best donuts in Denver. This kid-friendly spot offers a great variety of super fresh donuts at reasonable prices. The owner is kind, friendly, and welcoming, occasionally throwing in a few free donut holes. The glazed old fashioned donuts melt in your mouth, and the donut reheated in an air fryer is as good as a fresh baked donut. Customers praise the real ingredients, fluffy texture, and the right amount of crispness, stating they are way better than Krispy Kreme or any chain restaurants. It is a cash-only place, but definitely worth visiting. The traditional donuts are highly praised, especially the cinnamon pecan twist, apple fritter, and cinnamon roll, which are considered the best in Colorado. The shop offers great value, with half a dozen donuts and two coffees costing about $12. Many customers have been coming for years, noting an unbelievably nostalgic taste and a warm inviting atmosphere. The coffee is really good, smooth and strong, perfect for pairing with fresh donuts. Overall, Carol Lee Donut Shop remains a favorite for those seeking fresh, quality donuts in a friendly, local authentic feel.
