9th and Hennepin Donuts

The best donuts you will ever have and I’m serious.

Super fresh, fluffy donuts with new flavors each week! This week I got the filled brioche with Raspberry-Blackberry jam and the donuts just melt in your mouth. (My photos do NOT do thus justice) The donut was perfectly proofed and the jam complemented the vanilla glaze perfectly. I may have to come back tomorrow to get another one!! Check them out!

Delicious donuts! A must try.

For a while I thought Blue Star Portland was my death row donut but these small batch mixology of flavors and textures all while still warm from oven make me confident that there can be no other.

I’m not usually a huge donut person, but 9th and Hennepin completely won me over. We caught the food truck at Chuck’s Hop Shop on a sunny Saturday afternoon and ordered all four donuts on the rotating menu: a chocolate cake donut with coffee glaze, a brioche filled with Santa Rosa plum jam and vanilla bean, an apple & fig fritter with cinnamon-orange glaze, and a buttermilk whole wheat donut topped with honey glaze.

Each one was made fresh to order by the owner, Justin, and served hot — which I think made all the difference. The brioche and buttermilk donuts were my favorites, but honestly, every donut had great flavor and wasn’t overly sweet. If you spot this truck, don’t hesitate — grab them all and thank yourself later!

Fabulous, hot donuts as usual, but this was my first time coming to the take out counter! Easy online ordering system and friendly, fun staff at pickup. Plus I only had to park half a block away. I'll keep going to the truck since those locations are closer for me, but so glad I got to visit here, too!

Incredible. If you eat the donuts while they're still warm, they just melt in your mouth. 10/10 recommend.

the fresh hot old fashioneds and fritters received unanimous praise from myself, my wife, and our 2 year old. small, rotating menu with reservable pickup timeslots online. delicious

Bought my team last minute donuts this morning. The person who helped me was knowledgeable and explained the process to me. Only took about 5 mins! My team LOVED the donuts! Highly recommend.

These have become my weekend staple now after moving into the neighborhood. These are the best donuts in the city hands down.

The everything box contains 4 donuts - 2 cake donuts, 1 filled brioche and 1 fritter. The flavors are mind-blowing and so unique. They change the flavors weekly. You won’t find such flavors anywhere else. They work out of a commissary kitchen and use local ingredients. It’s pickup only - Friday through Sunday. You can order ahead on the website and set your pick up time.
Here’s a little tip: Arrive at the start of your pickup slot time, say 9.15 am for the 9.15-9.25 slot. The donuts are warm and crispy then. And plan to eat them right there - there are a few benches nearby - or in your car. They are made to order and taste the best then. Reheating hasn’t worked well for me. So proud of the what they are doing and feel lucky to be in the neighborhood.

Order ahead for the most delicious, melt in your mouth donuts. Such fun flavors and absolutely delish!

the best donuts I have ever had and will ever have. I think Justin is probably a magician of some sort because I have no other explanation

I never imagined that donuts could be such a mind-blowing gastronomic experience.

What to say… these are the best donuts I’ve ever had in my life. They are made to order, hot, chewy, with unique flavors that change week over week. Before the truck was consistently parking in Ballard on Sundays I would often make the trek to West Seattle just to get these donuts. They are often the highlight of my weekend, and they are extremely affordable for the quality - I am so grateful to the staff for all of the planning and work that goes into these week over week! The only way to do it is to get all 4 flavors. You won’t regret it!

Love living near this shop! They have such creative donuts that come hot and fresh.
