Amazing donuts! Try the seasonal specials like the Key Lime for something totally different than your standard donut shop. And the coffee from Zeke's is strong!

Ordered these and they were awful. I used to love them and over the years the quality has went down the drain. I usually don’t do reviews but this is the 3rd time I’ve got cold doughy donuts after spending over $40 on less than a dozen donuts don’t waste your money. Do not recommend!!!

If you're a donut aficionado or fan of the tasty treat District Donuts is a must stop. Their staple brown butter donut is very tasty and a terrific take on the traditional donut style. However if you prefer the sweeter side of things as I do their creme brulee donut is out of this world.

District Doughnuts is one of those places that built up a great reputation years ago, and is now just coasting on that reputation. The most recent reviews are much more negative, and the last couple times I've gone, the doughnuts have either still been frozen or stale. That wouldn't be too bad, except these doughnuts are also expensive at $5+ each. Do yourself a favor and just do not go.

Service was okay, ordered one cinnamon bun and 12 donuts, the creme brûlé donuts were rancid both of them, I couldn’t believe it, some donuts were stale, the cinnamon bun was in pieces inside my bag. I total disappointment.
Staff was extremely friendly and kind, and good was great. Highly recommend going here for a sweet treat.

Service was great and the staff was friendly. The donuts themselves are overrated and more like a cake donut, much like you would get at dunkin donuts or the supermarket. I think for the price ($23 for half dozen),you would get a better tasting donut. The store was clean and well maintained from what I could tell. It's not a bad experience, just not my style of donut.

Donuts were YUM. They were kinda pricey with over $25 for a half dozen but we all loved it. Vanilla bean Crème brûlée was delicious as it was warm and perfectly crusted with the sugar. I did not personally try, but my group loved the Samoa donut. Quick & nice service with window seating.

Super nice staff, loved the cherry blossom donut, solid pastry to withstand mushing, sweet glaze with a tart cherry pie topping balanced it perfectly for me! Pricey- yes but good for a treat yourself treat.
