43 Best Donuts in Austin

“Outstanding service!! Greeted like an old friend every time I come in. Never disappointed in whatever I get. So tasty!! Worth going out of your way to visit.“

“Love love love this place! They have the best employees who actually care about the people they are interacting with! And huge bonus that the donuts are delish! Will be a forever customer!“

“Gourdoughs is not only a MUST VISIT for out of towners, but totally can be a weekly regular spot, because of not only how delicious they are, but the vast varieties they have to cure that savory, sweet or "coffee" tooth! They seriously have some of the most decadent delicious treats out there!! I know for some of you indulging in donuts like this isn't always a regular thing, but they now offer MINI versions of the massive donuts you're already a fan of, which allows you to feel more "responsible" eating them AND allows you to try all the different varieties they have and of course justifies more regular visits hehe! PLUS they offer coffee and a couple savory items like their breakfast sandwich and Ron burgundy burger (super juicy, delicious with a quality angus patty), along with their mother clucker (fried chicken and donut) which is some of the BEST fried chicken out there!! The have conditioned their food truck spot to be super inviting with tables, umbrellas and "instaworthy" signage! It had been YEARS since we visited Gourdough's and are kicking ourselves in the butt that it had been so long! Don't let that be you! If you have never been or its been a minute, we HIGHLY encourage you to check them out again and try some of their new offerings or enjoy something you haven't had in a minute! Gourdoughs you rock and can't thank you enough sharing your calorie worthy donuts with Austin!“

“I think this is my new favorite donut shop ✨ We went around 11:30am on a Saturday, and luckily there were still plenty of kolaches and donut options available. Here’s what we got...

We ordered a small sausage and cheese kolache and a large sausage and jalapeño kolache, heated up, and they were perfect. They also have croissant kolaches which I’m very interested in trying in the future.

I wanted to try the glazed donuts as a baseline… and it was incredible. Pillowy soft and delicious. One of the best glazed donuts I’ve ever had. I’m sure the donut holes are incredible.

I always have to get a sprinkle donut, so we got a chocolate with sprinkles and a white with sprinkles. They were both great, but I would definitely get the white sprinkle donut next time.

Lastly my partner ordered a lemon filled donut, and he loved it.“

“I experienced their donuts at a Lunar New Year event at Flow Yoga. I’m not usually a donut fan, but gave these a try. They are denser than typical, much closer to the ones my mom used to make. The flavors were so good! I got the tea infused one, the black sesame seed one, the yuzu and the mandarin. They were all delicious! If you need a new donut assortment for your next gathering, get these. Everyone will find something to please them, you’ll support a small business, and you’ll get major brownie points for creativity! Photo is post sampling 🤭“

“I live in Manor and sometimes I come here to buy something. Also when I work in Austin, I stop by to buy donuts . They are the best donuts, soft and not too greasy, and they arrive on time when they are freshly made and go on sale. Loved ❤️“

“Absolutely fantastic experience at this donut shop! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with the delightful aroma of freshly baked donuts. The variety of flavors blew my mind – from classic glazed to unique gourmet options, they had it all. Each donut was a masterpiece, boasting a perfect balance of flavors and a satisfying texture. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure my visit was enjoyable. The cozy atmosphere and charming decor added to the overall experience. I can't wait to return and indulge in more of these heavenly treats!“

“el personal es muy amable y delicioso loqe se ase ..“

“Doughnuts? ✅ Emoboy employee? ✅ There's really not much to complain about when you come for these glazed or artisanal doughnuts.
However, please watch out for the leftmost stall in the toilets. Someone forgot to put down the seat before me, so imagine my surprise when I sat down and dipped my rear end into the coffee-like toilet water much like a cops doughnut.
Overall the most authentic doughnut experience I've had: 5 stars. ⭐ ✨“

“On occasion, my family and I enjoy their donuts when we’re in the area.

We absolutely love everything from them. From the apple fritters to the jelly donuts and donut holes - my husband and two sons devour them quickly. I restrain myself as best as I can but I end up eating more than I anticipate.

When I’ve gone, I’ve noticed others purchase their kolaches so those will be ordered on our next pickup.“

“Tried them for the first time at the domain location.... Cedric was so nice and friendly! I will definitely recommend and visit again. Great sweet treat! 🙂❤️“

Would definitely do it again!! thank you!! apart from appearance the taste was Amazing!!!! thank you!!“

“We love this place!! Not only do their donuts not taste like sugary slop and instead like wonderful pastries, they are always so kind and helpful when we come in. Today we tried their breakfast sandwiches and they were warm, fresh, and amazing! We were even given a bag of free donut holes. We love coming in and appreciate all the work the owners do. The store itself is also so cute and clean every time we see it! Theyre open later than every other donut shop so even when we wake up late we can have their food!“

“The lady that works there is so nice and sweet, always making sure her customers leave satisfied. Donuts are so delicious, too! Never had a bad experience. ❤️Although she is always running i wish she'd hire someone to continue striving ❤️“

“Just picked up breakfast for the first time at Angel Donuts and Treats. I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere else for our weekly donut outing. The donuts are stellar, the cake balls are flavourful, and the macarons are perfect in both texture and taste. Staff was simultaneously helpful and laid back. Very low pressure atmosphere. The only possible downside to this place is that everyone else knows about it and a bunch of the flavours were gone within 4 hours of them opening. Go early, get the good stuff!“

“I’ve been coming here for 8 years. The owners are super sweet. They know how I like my salsa and which donut is my favorite :) They really make my day. Their staff is also very nice! This and I haven’t even mentioned the breakfast and coffee. I’m very blessed to live near this place.“

“ATX is the best donut place we’ve visited in a while! None of the big donut chains compare! All donuts are fresh and delicious and the kolaches are AMAZING too! The staff is always friendly and welcoming and they always go above and beyond whatever the occasion may be!!!!“

“The best donuts in Austin Texas.“

“The donuts are amazing & staff is super friendly.“

“Thank you, Donut Hub, for the perfect donuts for our event! They looked amazing and were delicious!“

“Obsessed with these little guys. A sweet treat that’s not terrible for you. In fact, I feel good eating them because of the clean ingredients and protein. I’m always short on protein, so having it in a muffin I love is a major win. Side note: it’s impossible to have just one.“

“Clean and Courteous!! Food was delicious and the staff was friendly and helpful. Honorable mention goes to James!! You rock man!!“

“Great customer service and delicious donuts!!!“

“Overall I've never been a donut person myself over the last decade or so and not even a fan of Shipley's in particular, but I will admit I enjoy cake Donuts a lot more than I used to considering I try to watch my sugar intake. With their plain cake donut, their buttermilk cake donut and their blueberry cake donut, none of them iced that is, being around a little over a hundred calories per donut and 7 g of sugar is quite fantastic“

“Wow is correct! Really great service and delightful folks (family owned) who makes delicious ? doughnuts ? ? yummy

Parking: Near a gas station.

Kid-friendliness: Sure seems like it?

Wheelchair accessibility: It appears that a wheelchick and easily access the doorway providing. You're able to get up on to the sidewalk from a disabled parking space ... I think it's possible“

“This particular SHIPLEYS goes above and beyond from helping the less fortunate in the community to the love and dedication for there craft. Dalia Lopez is a very passionate owner that’s from open to close“

“Great place to sit, relax and enjoy freshly baked kolaches.“

“First and foremost, I want to highlight the exceptional service provided by Christina, the manager. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that each customer receives personalized and attentive care. Her leadership is reflected in the positive energy and professionalism of her team—especially Heaven, Alma, and several other outstanding employees.

Every time I stop by to enjoy a donut, I’m warmly greeted by these ladies. Our small chats make me feel like I’m visiting a family-run business—their camaraderie and teamwork are truly impressive.

The store is always spotless, and the staff greets everyone with a genuine smile. Without a doubt, this experience surpasses anything I’ve had at Krispy Kreme.

Thank you all once again!

Warm regards,
Lisa Ross“
