The Donut Inn - Porters Neck

This place is AMAZING! The donut selection is out of this world and the workers see si friendly, I was given a free donut bc it was my first time and she gave me one to take home to my husband too, how sweet! The chef in the kitchen came up to say hi too, I so appreciated that, so nice! And the woman came over to me to assist me as she saw me looking at the donuts which was so sweet and intuitive too! I ordered the glazed croissant omg 🥐 delicious! And a bagel with egg and cheese omg the bagels are so good wow and im a new yorker and these are great bagels 🥯!😍Awesome prices great place all around and I can’t wait to come back

Awesome donuts. Coffee is very good too, but we go for donuts. Life is about the quality of the donuts you eat - not the coffee you drink.
That said, the selection of donuts are great. Nothing too crazy like some places offer, so I imagine they sell out of all donuts each day. I like the Long John the best - it’s like a chocolate frosted and filled eclair, but slightly different. GET ONE!
Again…donuts first, then coffee. That’s a mantra we cannot mess with.
I highly recommend checking out The Donut Inn - but not on a Monday…as they’re closed that day.

Took 40 minutes for me to get my sandwich. I could have gone to a sit down place for that. The team there was also rude when I asked about when I could expect it after waiting 20 minutes

Wow. I got a Palmetto Biscuit, a lavender vanilla latte, and a couple donuts (lemon filled and blueberry cake) and wow. The biscuit was massive and actually so freaking good. Crisp bacon and a very fresh, crispity crunchity slice of tomato. The latte was awesome, not too sweet, not too bitter. The donuts are absolute perfection. The texture is crispy on the outside, soooo fluffy on the inside. The cashier, Heather, was also super freaking kind and personable. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. I wish I didn't live so far from this place so it could be my daily breakfast spot!

Stopped for the first time today and excellent donuts. Great flavors and fair pricing. Only thing we would change is more filling in the lemon and key lime.

Great donuts & service at this location

DISAPPOINTED-
Donut Inn has been our go-to weekend breakfast spot, and we’ve always had nothing but positive experiences. We love bringing out-of-town family here, and I’ve raved to my mother-in-law about this place leading up to her visit.

That’s why I was genuinely shocked and disappointed by what happened this morning. The young woman who helped us — long hair with lighter ends, black nail polish, and several necklaces — seemed visibly frustrated from the moment we approached the counter. She snapped at us, avoided eye contact, and eventually tossed our breakfast bag on the counter when our order was ready.

I’m sad to say that the warmth and friendliness we’ve come to associate with Donut Inn was missing today. I hope this was just a bad day for that employee and not an everyday problem moving forward, but changed the mood for our breakfast.

What a fun, friendly, and delicious place to visit!!! Coffee was delicious, the sandwich “the bomb” was literally the bomb, the Baja beach burrito was huge and not overly spicy, and don’t get me started on the fresh donuts!! You have to go!!!

I was a little disappointed that at 1030 in the morning they were out of chocolate frosted donuts. My husband and I got the sour cream and vanilla fluff and they weren't great. The sour cream donut was hard and flavorless. I think the thing that bothered us more though was the person helping us behind the counter. She was oddly rude. The person in front of us asked her what her favorite donut was and she said "I hate them all". She didn't smile once. We thanked her for the donuts and she stared at us and walked away. Not really a great vibe especially after not getting the type of donut we came in for.

Normally love Donut Inn but today was crazy- went in at 2pm to buy my mom a treat and I was greeted with heavy metal music blaring and a worker in unprofessional attire. While I understand the selection is not the best before closing, the donut display was dirty and less than appealing. I will say the donut I did get was delicious.

Overall, the service was great. Employees were extremely friendly the donuts. We're pretty good the Latte was just okay.
But Would recommend anyone to give it a try.
