12 Best Donuts in Lexington

“Couldn't be happier stopping in to get some doughnuts today. The staff behind the counter were super nice. When I proclaimed I had never been here before they had recommendations ready for me to try. I bought both of them, and they were both great! Would recommend anyone to check this place out.“

“Let me tell you what! Driving through Kentucky I stopped for the road trip doughnut, to go. These were the lightest, best tasting doughnut I have ever had. We went back to buy more for family in our home state. Staff was pleasant and friendly.“

“If you're looking for the best donuts in Lexington, look no further than Spalding's Bakery! These donuts are simply PERFECTION. Whether you're a fan of yeast or cake donuts, they have it all, but for me, the yeast donuts steal the show every time.

Each donut is a masterpiece, from their classic glazed and chocolate to the cinnamon twists, long johns, and cinnamon rolls. They even offer an assortment of other goodies, including reasonably priced cakes! Every bite is nostalgic, transporting me back to childhood mornings when my dad would bring home a box of donuts.

This local gem has been around for over 90 years, and it's easy to see why they've stood the test of time. The line out the door speaks for itself, and trust me, it's worth the wait.

Their space is grab-and-go (no indoor seating), but that just adds to the charm. I'll happily wake up early whenever friends or family visit, just to grab a fresh assortment to share.

To top it off, they've embraced modern times and now accept all kinds of payments. Spalding's Bakery isn't just a spot for donuts; it's a piece of Lexington's heart.
Here's to 90 more years (and then some)!“

“My husband and I stopped in the Westport Village location this morning. The baristas were amazing and very customer service oriented. The donuts were amazing as well. We will be back if we ever find ourselves near one again!“

“OMG Donuts is the best, semi-hidden secret! They have an array of sweets and breakfast foods, and the most delicious drinks. The best part is the staff. Sofia is such a joy! Every time I go in she knows my drink order better than I do 😂. My coworkers and I frequent OMG just about every day, except Mondays, when we mope around waiting for Tuesday for the OMG doors to open again! There hasn’t been a single time that Sofia hasn’t gone above and beyond, had a beautiful smile on her face, and just been so incredibly joyful. It makes a difference in our mornings. Thank you OMG Donuts for my (almost) daily fix of deliciousness and joy! ☺️🍩🧋“

“Superb quality products. Their cake frosting is absolutely mouthwatering.“

“We accidently found this place exploring Lexington. We are from Kansas City and here for the NYAA Nationals. I love the old fashion feel of the atmosphere. The cashier was super helpful with recommendations. I didn't get her name but she was wearing a bandana on her head, glasses, super sweet. Thank you!“

“My daughter and I stopped by today, I don’t think I’ve seen a happier baby. We didn’t want to leave! Amazing people and amazing donuts 🔥“

“My husband and I stopped in the Westport Village location this morning. The baristas were amazing and very customer service oriented. The donuts were amazing as well. We will be back if we ever find ourselves near one again!“

“I saw this while I was waiting for my order this morning... Even the groundhog needs a doughnut!“

“Always stop here! It's our closest Dunkin.“

“I am in this store 7 days week to get coffee for my wife and myself. The staff is always friendly and make my coffee as ordered. Usually having it ready as soon as they see me pull up. The only thing I miss about this location is the store manager that used to be there (Johnny) made the place seem like his and his crew always seemed happy to work with him. I keep hoping that I come in one day and he is back running this store. General Manager that I consider a friend is an unbelievable worker and does a lot more than he gets credit for.“
