22 Best Donuts near Pineville

“Great donuts shop that is not corporate!

Great variety of donuts that are freshly made. Perfect place for someone with a sweet tooth. Service is quick and friendly!

Make sure you stop in and support your small local business!“

“Limited donuts but great flavors! Ordered a brown butter 🧈🤎 donut which was truly amazing; it's a semi-dry almost biscuit-like base with a to-die-for glaze, YUM, perfect with coffee.

Also ordered a strawberry 🍓 speciality donut, missed the name but was pretty much an apple fritter. Love the idea but a bit too sweet, wouldn't order that one again personally!

Staff shoutout: there were two rude ladies in front of me, rude to the other guests, the cashier, and the server - both employees remained very kind and honestly went above in service to make them happy.“

“I didn’t expect to be impressed… but Yummm Donuts absolutely delivered.

From the moment you open the box, you already know you’re in for something different. Everything looks intentional, fresh, and honestly a little addictive just sitting there. That classic glazed donut? Soft, light, perfectly sweet without being overpowering. It melts the second you bite into it.

But what really sets them apart is the creativity. That cereal-topped donut? Yeah… that’s not just a gimmick. It actually works. You get this perfect mix of crunch and glaze that hits in layers, not just sugar overload. It feels like they’re having fun with their menu, and you taste that.

Texture-wise, they nailed it. Not greasy, not dry, just that ideal balance where you could easily eat more than you planned and not regret it until later. And even then… still worth it.

Also, presentation matters, and they get that. Clean packaging, visually appealing, and everything inside actually looks like what you hoped it would. No disappointment when you open the box, which is rare these days.

Bottom line, if you’re looking for basic donuts, you can go anywhere. But if you want something that feels a little elevated, a little more thought out, and honestly just hits every time, Yummm Donuts is it.

10 out of 10. I’d go back without even thinking twice. 🍩“

“Friendly staff, clean environment, DELICIOUS DONUTS!! I myself am not a fan of sweets like donuts or cake or anything, but I got some for my son and tasted one of the original glazed for myself and it was AMAZING! The staff was very nice!“

“Our salesman brought some of Momos donuts to us in Columbia. These are the BEST donuts I’ve ever had. Coconut is unbelievable! Everyone was raving about them in the office!“

“I’ve been searching for gluten free donuts that are handmade for YEARS & stumbled upon this shop - SO GOOD!!!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely lives up to the name! Beyond Amazing Donuts is hands-down one of the best spots in Charlotte. The energy, the people, the freshness—everything just feels right the moment you walk in. You can tell they love what they do, and it shows in every bite and every smile. A total vibe and an instant mood-booster. Truly beyond amazing! 🍩🔥“

“Delicious! Well worth the drive from uptown while visiting for work. Loved it!“

“FINALLLLLLLY - a good donut spot. We've had to drive to Charlotte or Rock Hill, but thankfully we've got a place that is better and closer. Nothing over the top crazy in terms of flavors, but they do have some creative options, but here's the thing, a typical glazed is just so good and when you get the basics right, that's a good thing. The staff is always friendly as well. Happy to support this establishment.“

“My family loves this tea house. I love the variety they offer here , especially the juice options that arent available at most of them. The black boba is never old or hard and the amount distributed is sufficient go the amount if liquid. I also appreciate the consistency they uphold no matter whose working, the drink tastes the same.
They also offer macaroons and Mochi donuts. I recommend if you want a sweet treat or your favorite flavored tea, slush, smoothie, bubble, or juice drink.“

“finally got to try it after 3 yrs.. come from Ohio... GAS 500 BUCKS HOTEL 800 BUCKS OMG DONUTS... PRICELESS“

“My favorite donuts in Charlotte, always. Staff is always kind, the stores are always pretty and chill. Have never had a bad donut! This cafe con leche and Boston cream were great, the crème brûlée was a highlight a while back too! They are quite expensive, but so so good!“

“My first time at the bakery itself, I usually grab weird at Optimus food haul.
My favorites are the cakes and the cookies but every time I go I try one new to me thing.

You can tell it's a local favorite as there's ALWAYS a line and it smells delicious when you enter the building“

“If you haven’t been to this tucked away gem, you are missing out! My Garlic Bulgogi Bánh Mi and Passionfruit Pleasure drink were the best I’ve had and I’m picky when it comes to my food. I’m so glad I found this family owned restaurant to try today while I was out and about. 1368 Sweet Corner Cafe is a must try, the variety of food choices is unmatched compared to other similar restaurants in Charlotte so put this one on the list as a must try, especially if you are a Bánh Mi fan like I am!“

“I’ve come to this location for years, and I drove over this morning excited to get a lemon-filled after the limited time return announcement. Unfortunately, they didn’t have them in yet, and they were out of my second choice too. The employee was so apologetic and kind (about something that was absolutely not his fault in any way)!! I ordered a different donut, and when I pulled around he told me it was on the house because they didn’t have the ones I initially wanted. He completely made my day, and he deserves a shout out!“

“never had anyone be so nice“

“I pass by this place often and every time it’s always packed. That’s always a good sign! Finally I was able to try it out get me a table and not so many people.

Service- attentive staff, well educated, fast and very nice.

Food- fire! I enjoyed every bite, fried were season perfectly, the chicken had great taste and was dry, I don’t even like coleslaw but you have to try it out, so good and fresh!

Definitely be back on my cheat day. 👏🏼“

“There’s a certain kind of American optimism wrapped in neon and sugar — the belief that no matter how complicated life gets, there will always be a place where warm dough, fluorescent lighting, and industrial nostalgia can temporarily convince you everything’s fine. Maybe even beautiful.

That place today was a Krispy Kreme.

Outside, the building sits gleaming in a too-clean, too-happy white and green — the kind of color palette selected by a marketing department convinced childhood joy can be Pantone-matched. The sun hangs low in the sky behind it, soft and cinematic, like the universe is trying — just this once — to make a chain doughnut shop look poetic. And damn it, it works. You stand there, phone in hand, knowing full well that you’re about to trade dignity for hot glaze and thinking: Yeah. Worth it.

Inside, the display case tells the real story. A chaotic seasonal fever dream of design choices that range from charming to mildly disturbing. Snoopy-shaped doughnuts — their expressionless fondant eyes staring into the void — sit beside Santa-belly pastries with icing belts stretched across their midsections like they’ve been stress eating since Halloween. Charlie Brown’s round yellow face, forever trapped in a frosting-based existential crisis, waits to be devoured. A wreath made of frosting, sprinkles, and questionable life choices rounds out the festive lineup.

You don’t pick one. You pick too many. Because you didn’t come here for moderation. You came for the moment the warm original glazed disintegrates on your tongue like it’s trying to escape before you swallow, leaving behind a whisper of sugar, butterfat, and childhood memory. There’s a reason people still line up for these. It’s engineered nostalgia — edible time travel.

The seating area looks like it was designed for an elementary school talent show — bright yellow stools and wooden steps arranged in a way that suggests someone, somewhere, expects doughnuts to be enjoyed as a community performance. Maybe that’s the point. Maybe in a world full of late-stage capitalism and constant existential dread, there is something meaningful about sitting on an awkward yellow square and stuffing your face with a seasonal pastry that looks like a cartoon dog.

This Krispy Kreme isn’t pretending to be artisanal or edgy or refined. It isn’t chasing trends or seeking Michelin stars. It is, unapologetically, itself: a shrine to processed joy — sticky, goofy, imperfect, and honest.

And sometimes — maybe more often than we’re willing to admit — that’s exactly what we need.

You leave with icing on your fingers and zero regrets.

Just how it should be.“

“I’ve been coming to this Dunkin’/Baskin location for a while now, and it’s consistently a great experience. Whether I’m stopping by in the morning for a quick coffee or treating myself to some ice cream in the evening, the staff is always friendly, efficient, and welcoming. The coffee is always fresh, and the drinks are made just the way I like them. I also appreciate how clean the store is, even during busy hours. The Baskin side is a fun bonus — there’s a great variety of flavors, and everything tastes super fresh. It’s the perfect stop for a sweet treat or a pick-me-up during a long day. Shoutout to the crew for always being on point and creating a positive vibe. Highly recommend this spot!“

“This location is very good. Friendly service and they're pretty quick. I typically order On The Go on their app and my drink is always there when I arrive. It's walk-in only, but there's plenty of parking since it's in a plaza, yet away from the Harris Teeter.“

“This location allowed our Girl Scout Troop to sell cookies inside the restaurant. They were so gracious to us! We witnessed excellent customer service to many folks. Not all of the Dunkin Donut locations have this quality. I highly recommend their staff!“

“Great and fast service.“
