MJ Donuts is hands down the best donut shop I’ve ever been to! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the warmest smiles and the irresistible aroma of fresh, homemade donuts. The selection is incredible—whether you’re in the mood for classic glazed, rich chocolate-covered, or fun, creative flavors, they have it all.
The donuts are always soft, fluffy, and perfectly sweet, never overly greasy like some other places. And don’t even get me started on their kolaches—flaky, buttery, and filled with the most delicious sausage and cheese! Pair any of their treats with a hot cup of coffee, and you’re in for a perfect start to your day.
Beyond the food, the customer service is top-notch. The staff is friendly, welcoming, angenuinely passionate about making sure every customer leaves happy. It’s the kind of local business that makes you feel like family.
If you’re in the area and haven’t tried MJ Donuts yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won’t be disappointed!

My boyfriend found this bakery about a month ago and has become obsessed with it, especially their maple cream sticks. He used to only go to KK, but now all he talks about is MJ’s. I think he only comes to my house because I’m a few miles away from MJ’s. 😬😬. The ladies are very friendly and they typically throw in some donut holes as a bonus in your bag.

First time there. Donuts were way over priced. Not very big for what they cost. They were ok. The lady was pushy in making me make my choices, and I was the only one there. I love a good donut, but I had better elsewhere. And at a cheaper price.

It's probably the best donuts in Charlotte if you want GOOD yeast or cake donuts- this isn't dunkin or some fancy place where they add tons of crap, these are rhe classics done right and a couple of other surprises like sour cream glazed cake donuts which are amazing; the cinnamon buns or twists are also game changers, the cinnamon/sugar ratio used is perfectly cinnamon sweet. And the regular glaze they use on most donuts is not overly sticky. If you order a lot, they usually throw in a bag or two of donut holes free of charge, such a great female-owned business to support

This is our favorite donut shop in Charlotte. Located in Pineville. So many choices and we love to come here. We have tried many other places, and this is our favorite and go to now. Worth the extra few miles. My husband loves the custard cream donuts, and I love the glazed cinnamon twist. The grand kids love the sprinkle doughnuts and of course the donut holes.
Parking: Lots of parking spots

Our morning was made much better when we stopped by this little bakery. We were traveling back home and stopped for snacks. What a great surprise when we found free donut holes in our bag. Great donuts and very friendly staff
