50 Best Donuts in Brooklyn

“My family highly recommends Peter Pan Donut and Pastry Shop for your exceptional employees and fantastically delicious donuts!! Thank you for your hospitality and for making my granddaughter's birthday donut trip so special!! It was definitely worth the trip!! With Kristen Fulbrook 💕 🎂🍩💙“

“Excellent donuts yummy. Best donuts I ever tasted!!“

“Amazing doughnut flavor and creations, and a cute and cozy atmosphere :)“

“The Ultimate Dairy-Free Treat Spot🍩

If you have kids with severe dairy allergies like I do, you know how stressful it is to find safe treats. Walking into Cloudy Donut Co. was pure joy because the entire shop is 100% vegan! There is zero worry about milk or butter cross-contamination, so my kids could safely pick whatever they wanted.

We really enjoyed the fact that they have mini donuts and muffins alongside their regular sizes—it made it so easy to try a bunch of different things! The flavors are completely out of this world. My teenagers love real meat and dairy and are usually tough critics of vegan food, but these hit the nail on the head. They are so airy and delicious that you would never guess they are plant-based. We will definitely be regular customers!“

“I go to New York City once year: My co-workers and I take a group of theater students, we see 8 broadways shows, I get a *carrot cake donut* at the Doughnut Plant in Grand Central Station, and I’m a happy girl for one more year. I always have a good experience! I get my favorite, and then something new. Everything I’ve ever tried there has been phenomenal. (This time is was a coffee cake doughnut - it was inspired! SO good!) If Doughnut Plant moved its location to the moon, I’d probably just start taking my theater students there instead, just so I could get my yearly taste test at Doughnut Plant.“

“I’ve been coming here consistently since 2022, they’ve gotten new management recently but it’s still the same quality, price, atmosphere. Just overall great. My son loves the donuts so much that we get him one every Saturday and i bring my family from out of town here.“

“I wanted to try these doughnuts for a while and I’m glad I had the opportunity to finally give them a go! I ordered a blueberry doughnut and vanilla bean doughnut, the staff were quick and efficient. The treats were very light and fluffy, almost cake like and packed with flavour. You definitely need a beverage with them to cut down on the richness, but man are they delicious! They’re on the pricier side, but as it is a standalone shop, it makes sense. There are some seating options inside’s but not much. I look forward to visiting again.“

“I had a apple fritter just amazing, was not to sweet crispy large and yummy. Worth the bus ride any day! Reminds me of my childhood soooooo good. Price amazing ❤️😋“

“Their focaccia bread is by far my favorite. And this is coming from someone who is a croissant fanatic over focaccia bread, in general. Been to a lot of bakeries and yet the flavor, crust, texture of their bread is unparalleled. Their kouign amann is VERY good but their bread blew me away. Incredibly friendly staff as well. I’ve seen the owner there every time I visit and can tell they care deeply about their pastries and bread. Highly, highly recommend!“

“One of my favorite sandwich and pastry stores in Midwood!“

“I’m not exaggerating this is the best doughnut place in the world. The hibiscus donut is to die for. When I was younger there was one nearby but it moved so I was so sad. But it’s worth it to travel there. Every-time I see a picture of the hibiscus donut my mouth waters. I want to eat one right now!“

“Excellent family friendly cafe 🍵Recommend the chai masala, lavender donut and rose elixir matcha! Follow @maria.angelspear for more cafe gems ☕️🎀✨“

“Mike’s Donuts is a community pillar and the best place for donuts, coffee, and laughs in Bay Ridge! Taki and his family are wonderful, kind, and embody the Greek spirit of hospitality to the fullest. If you’re in Brooklyn and looking to check out an old-school mom-and-pop shop with amazing donuts to boot, look no further!“

“lucien and his team are a wonderful group of people. great coffee/ scones/ cookies/ sandwiches/croissants... walk up window with distancing enforced. love this place!“

“With so many great coffee shops around, this one is my favorite. Cozy with soft music and local kid art on the walls. Great coffee and service. There is a small step to get in and gets hard with a stroller, someone always runs over to offer help. Absolutely adore this place“

“Great breakfast but if I pay extra for cheddar on the omelette don't put American on the homefries cmonnn. 5 stars when the cheese matches.

French toast the first time was perfect. This time it's under cooked and soggy.“

“7th Ave Diner is the perfect no frills neighborhood diner for when you just want a meal and do not want to overthink it.

The food is good, the service is quick, and the prices are reasonable. Nothing here is trying to reinvent the diner experience, and honestly, that is exactly why it works. You know what you are getting and you know you are going to leave satisfied.

This is the kind of place you can walk into without a plan, order whatever you are craving, and get exactly what you came for. No surprises, no unnecessary fuss, just a solid meal at a fair price.

Sometimes that is all you need. 🥞🙂“

“Absolutely wonderful bakery with great service! Stopped by to pick up a flan for a summer party and the lady working that counter was so sweet and helpful. The entire custard was priced at $25 which I think is perfectly fair given the size. Highly recommend and will be back!“

“I ordered my wedding cake from this lovely place. It was a delicious experience to say the least. The staff is friendly and the pastry wizard is just that. I gave her a picture that I wish I could up load and not only did she replicate the exact design but the cake itself literally melted on our mouths. It was so light and fluffy my "husband" couldn't wait a year to eat the top. If you live anywhere in Brooklyn and have need of a baker this place is worth the drive. Trust you won't be disappointed💃🏿“

“Amazing doughnut flavor and creations, and a cute and cozy atmosphere :)“

“Literally a time machine to old school Brooklyn that I grew up with! Shaikh's is conveniently located by the Avenue U station on the Q (Brighton Line) and the B3 bus. All of their donuts are homemade and you could snag a dozen donuts of your choice, including the 13th one for $11.75 (early 2026). These are your traditional donuts, not too sweet or plain, just right! Also, this is a cash only shoppe, so make sure to bring cash and share some delightfulness with your friends & family!“

“Absolutely fantastic experience at JM deli . The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm, friendly smile and the mouth-watering aroma of freshly prepared food. The menu offers an incredible variety of options, from classic deli sandwiches to innovative new creations. I tried salad. The service was prompt and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. Highly recommend this gem for anyone looking for a top-notch deli experience! Five stars all the way!“

“The ladies give this mixed look of pity, boredom, and condescension. Not a complaint- it’s a clue that I’ve picked the right place for this cuisine. Today is Polish Fat Thursday Tłusty Czwartek so I indulged in a pączki. An immaculate meal and delectable holiday pastry“

“DING DING ?️ FOODS READYthis dineresce restaurant serves up all the bells and whistles. Delicious bells and whistles that is. They even let me get some lip numbing medication for my canker sore while i was waiting for my food! I felt treasured. The food was served warm. There was a gentleman watching a video of a tractor on full volume in the establishment which I enjoyed and I think added.Memories have been made! Thank you and good afternoon!!! ?

Kid-friendliness: Kids are welcomed although i did not bring a child.“

“It was an experience to remember! The food was great! We had the BBQ burger, spaghetti & meatballs, the eggs with salmon & 2 small shakes, the strawberry for me wa amazing, however my son & husband enjoyed mier the classic vanilla one! Very classic American dinner food, so nice service! I give nothing to add except awesome!!“

“I been coming here for years since they open the owner and employees are wonderful and amazing. The food is fantastic my favorite combo that I get every day small ice coffee with a sausage and egg and cheese on roll. Sometimes if I don’t order breakfast I have order in the afternoon the cheeseburger with fries or a Philly cheesesteak and both taste amazing i highly recommend this spot“

“Good, fast service!!! Yummy donuts � Treat for my grandson.“

“Really cute cafe with great coffee and delicious vegan burrito! The owners were so nice and welcoming. Definitely a hidden gem in the neighborhood. Highly recommend! Best coffee in the area. Their vanilla flavor is made in house and they make the best vanilla lattes! They have seating inside!“

“The food was so good here, and they live up to their name for a simple cup of coffee! Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious. I would eat anything from their menu, but for our first time here, we had the #2 breakfast burrito and the Ramos breakfast sandwich. They even had picked jalapenos at the table, which was very special to see and made it feel like home. Highly recommend coming here for the service and their food, coffee, and donuts (they looked so good but we were so full!)“

“Coffee is the best! Don’t know what the big fuss is about Starbucks. Dunkins is so smooth!“

“Absolutely loved my experience at Dunkin! The coffee was fresh and delicious, the service was friendly and quick, and the staff was very welcoming specially Mr. Ali and Mr. Khan. They were very polite, professional, and friendly. They made the whole experience pleasant with their warm smiles and excellent service. Everything was clean and well organized. Great place to grab a coffee and a quick bite. Definitely coming back! ☕🍩“

“The dunkin donuts on church and nostrand, is the best dunkin donuts I ever been to in brooklyn. I go there every morning before I go to work, the 2 young ladies that run it, is awesome, the courtesy and respect they have for every customer is the best., another good thing about that shop is, its always clean, the floors stay clean ,no garbage on the floor and they tables are wipe off and clean,I been to alot of dunkin donuts in brooklyn and the workers dont even say good morning all they do is take your order and money, sometimes the food is burnt or warm. I would choose this d&d anytime. Love you ladies stay blessed“

“Amir is the kindest person in all Greenpoint. Every time I go there to pick up my order, he has it ready for me. He always has a super big smile and I love seeing how kind he is to his employees. Best Dunkin' Donuts in all of Brooklyn.“

“This is the only dunking I'll come two I've been to several in the area, and im a seasonal girl, so I only come certain time of the year... but I'll only come to this dunking they get it right every time and it tastes so good I love the ppl whom work here the boys do such a great job props to them big thanks you to them“

“I loved ice caramel later larger �������������“

“Extremely friendly, clean, and incredible service“

“This particular DD is a great place to eat. It is very clean. The people who work ghere are corteous and treat you well.“

“the cashier is always seert to us🥰“

“Great customer service, happy with the amount of ice cream they give. Clean and well tidy, there’s this guy prolly in his late 19 Indian/Bengali very nice, and well behavedExtremely polite, and pays attention to what you want. The scoops are always scoop full, fantastic. Should give him a raise or something .“

“It takes a lot for me to leave a review. But good god does this place deserve 5 stars. It’s hands down the best customer service experience I’ve had in a Dunkin, and arguably some of the best in New York. I feel so welcome every time I step foot in the door. Staff? Professional. Coffee? Delicious. Cleanliness? Pristine. Go here.“

“My drinks taste good when the people behind the counter focus on listening to what I order instead of judging the kind of drinks I ordered by how much sugar or syrup I ask for. There's a girl who works there who always gets my order wrong - even though I'm reading it slowly and I even show her my order on my phone. The donuts are stale - I like old-fashioned. This place is in the middle of nowhere and no AC.“

“They make worlds best coffee“

“If you go there enough the staff is friendly, will remember your order and have it available for you.

The only problem are the aggressive beggars right at the door. It makes you not want to go back. Every day like clockwork they are out there asking for money. I didn't ask you to open the door for me. They are at every gas station, begging like crazy. It's ridiculous that they are allowed to do this.“

“It's regular Dunkin food nothing to complain about. Service is okay. I have to always count my change because they give incorrect change alot. Also I was given food without gloves. I threw it out because I was disgusted with the hands that served me. Dirty fingernails and calluses. I don't trust the dining area because it's always messed up with a spilled drink or an order not disposed of.“

“its a nice spot however they need more staff at night“

“Delicious Dunkin’ Donuts and super convenient being inside the supermarket! It honestly changes the entire shopping experience! grabbing a coffee or a treat while shopping makes everything better. Fresh, tasty, and so easy. Definitely a win! ☕🍩“

“It was fine. For thos Dunkin donuts, I believe that the people working there are mexican so you might not hear what they say at first becuase of their heavy accent. All you really have to do is listen closley honestly. Clean lobby, and of course some tables here and there. For that I give 4 stars.“

“I am a Major fan of Dunkin Donut, there hot coffee is amazing, there muffins r great.“

“This is the best Dunkin I have been to anywhere in NYC. They are consistently amazing. The way they get your drink order PERFECT is their strongest point. The food is always prepared properly and cooked well (not over or under done.) All my coworkers and and I agree they are the best. Not to mention they are polite and professional, consistently pleasant. They aren't nice in a phony way, it's genuine. And last but not least they are fast. I wish all Dunkins were like this one.“
