Joe's has become a traditional stop for skiers over the years. It is lauded as excellent by most people. However, the praise is not really fully deserved. Quality and service has degraded over the decades. The building inside is shabby and not kept very clean. It is cluttered and uninviting. The display cases are old and kind of gross looking, and don't look very well maintained. The shop side is really pretty grimy. I'm afraid to imagine what the back side of the shop looks like. There is an older woman working there who uses gloves, but uses them to handle cash, and touch her face and then to serve the doughnuts in between. Joe's could really benefit from a vigorous cleaning. Some guidelines for sanitary service for its employees, and a refresh on its recipes and glazes. The chocolate glaze is like the potted stuff you can buy at the supermarket. The doughnuts are ok. Nothing spectacular. Sometimes they're heavy with the cooking oil they're prepared in. In all honesty, donut world in Gresham has better doughnuts. They used to have really crispy cake doughnuts but those and the fritters are soggy. All in all, it's not what it's cracked up to be, and skates along on its established name with the folks who make a tradition of stopping there on the way up to the ski areas.

My experience wasn't great.. I drove about 45 min for my kids to get donuts and denied service just to learn that dear owner decided to close store that day at 4pm.

Great place to meet your friends on the way up to the mountains. Evan gave us great information about how to maneuver the parks during the government shutdown. The donuts are tasty and a good value.

One of the best donut places around, but I am taking a star away because they are no longer able to get the super special secret mix they use to make the world's best old fashioned donuts. Seriously , no other shop in the region had better old fashioned donuts than Joe's. Still worth a trip out just for the cronuts (croissant-donut) though.

The donuts were very soft. They are on the sweeter side but i liked it
Service was amazing! Donuts were so reasonably priced; tried 4 kinds and were all 15/10. Lots of unique options to choose from!

We traveled 1.5 hours to get to Joe's Donuts. They have the best apple fritters with maple bars a close second!

[ ] Glazed Cronut- Whitney was skeptical of the style here but I love the literal croissants that were glazed. Probably my favorite thing we got. [ ] Apple fritter- quite delicious. Good apple mix. Good spice flavor. Lovely texture. [ ] Apple sauce cake donut- amazing! Reminded me of any of our favorite apple cider donuts. Just needed to be warm and covered in cinnamon sugar! [ ] Maple bar- soft, fluffy, with an amazing maple glaze. Would absolutely get again!
