Duck Donuts offers fresh, customizable doughnuts, but the experience fell short for me. The doughnuts were okay, nothing exceptional, and the facility was a bit messy. It’s a decent option in a pinch, but not somewhere I’d choose to return. Solid for what it is, but not my top pick.
I've been to Duck Donuts a few times and I was in the area today and decided it's been too long since I've treated myself to a maple-bacon. I ordered a donut and a coffee. I needed to wash my hands so I proceeded to the bathroom, and as I approached the door, the employee who makes the donuts was exiting the bathroom. I immediately noticed how disgusting the bathroom was. It clearly had not been cleaned in a very long time. The toilet was unbelievably disgusting, the floor was sticky and very grimy, there were no paper towels, and the sink was literally so dirty that it was brown......and dry. The employee who had just used the bathroom clearly did not wash her hands. It was sickening and I knew I couldn't imagine trying to eat food that was prepared by someone who doesn't wash their hands after using the bathroom in an establishment that doesn't prioritize cleanliness. I changed my mind on that maple-bacon and asked for a refund. The employee who originally took my order did apologize for my experience and asked if I would be comfortable if she prepared my food instead. But to be honest, I felt that any employee who didn't take offense to the disgusting bathroom in the first place would be equally incapable of caring about cleanliness in food preparation. To make matters worse, the refunded amount was less than what I paid and I didn't realize that until after I left. Pathetic. Sorry, Duck Donuts, I won't be back.

One of the best donuts I've tried so far. They make them fresh right in front of you. It's not overly sweet and the portions are great!

I placed a delivery order for my wife on Thursday. Friday morning got a text saying it was cancelled to call the store. After calling the store they said their system was down and it was nothing they can do. Nothing offered for the inconvenience and when asked still nothing. I have worked in the restaurant business for 17 years and this is something that I do. Wasn't pleased with this action. Somethings people can't help ( system going down ). Somethings they can ( I always compensate my customers for their inconvenience).
I was surprised how fast the donuts came out considering the size that mixer and they were amazing

Want to place a to-go order online with family in town? Don’t. You’ll have an estimated pickup time, but then you’ll wait well-past that for a dozen donuts, while people who order at the counter have their orders filled before yours.

I know this is a chain, so not exactly an indie pick, but...I think these are the best donuts I've ever had. They have so many flavors to choose from beyond standard glazed, chocolate, strawberry, etc. and they're always fresh because they're literally made to order, so no risk of stale donuts here. They also have a cake-like texture to them as well, which is my personal preference. Try to avoid Dunkin next time and come here instead ;)
