donut hole bakery cafe

over hyped over priced. love their key limedonutswhich we buy by the dozen when we are in destin. always wanted to try their breakfasts but long wait lines whenever we were there discouraged us. finally the stars converged and we were there for breakfast, which turned out to be a disappointing experience. it started badly when we had a long wait for a server after we were seated. the place was not that busy. coffee came quickly but not the water and our waitress disappeared until she brought out our orders some time later. my wife had the crabmeat omelet and i had the corned beef hash. the omelet was ok although a little short of crabmeat compared to some others i had eaten in destin. the hash was a disaster, it came to the table completely cold, hash, eggs and toast. it was as if it had been sitting under an ac vent for a while. had to send it back and when they brought it back to the table they had simply warmed it up in a microwave. i'll still get theirdonutsbut nothing more

mostly stop in fordonutsand sometimes a pie due to the huge crowds but the occasional sit down breakfast is good as well.

even when a big crowd you might score a stool at the counter which are first come first serve.

all the food has been above average and a few twists on the menu keep it fresh and interesting.

the angel cream is my favorite of the donuts.

apple fritter. too doughy

oh my goodness!!!! we love the donut hole! it is our tradition to go the last day of our trip for a happy ending! i got the combo meal of the day of pancakes, sausage, bacon, ham, and 2 eggs. soooooo good. and the hubs got the western omelet. of course we got our dozendonutstoo! this is the most wonderful place to eat. super nice and the food is awesome. no problem with check out. oh, if it is just 2 of you , you can go ahead and sit at the bar area and eat.

"possibly the bestdonutsin the nation."
-avid donut lover from st. louis.

there is such a variety! the angeldonutsare light and their fillings are perfectly whipped. the raspberry filled is not glazed but sugar covered and good. the cookies & cream has a very rich cream filling.

the eggs benedict was delicious!!!! i give it a 4 out of 5 which is good on my scale for breakfast food. thedonutswere a 5 out of 5 for sure!!! it was a long wait so don't go when your super hungry. or buy a donut while you wait in line:).

really good food with a good atmosphere.donutsof course are fresh and tasty. the negative could be the wait time and parking. definitely will go back before heading home.

maybe i built this place up too much in my head due to the reviews i had read, but i was upset that i had wasted my family's time dining here. the service was extremely slow and the food was disappointing. if i ever go here again, i will only go fordonutsfor the kids and skip the other options.

just like the other one, expect a line during peak times. i thought the food good, but not quite as good as the other place, but our waitress, gloria, was wonderful! if you just wantdonutsto go, you can just walk in to the designated register to place your order.

what am i missing?. seagrove beach is always the destination, and every few years we bring indonutsfrom this café. the wait is very long, even if you arrive early, which we did. they look wonderful in the box when they arrive to the condo, and everyone is excited to try each one. then.......disappointment.....too sweet, pretty standard. the cakedonutsfair pretty well, but the remainder are just mediocre. thedonutsat home are much better, and i need to quit trying to figure out why folks flock to this place.

bestdonutsever!!!!. the donut hole in santa rosa beach have great severers and it seems like as soon as you sit down to eat the food is ready to eat! the bathrooms are very clean compared to most public bathrooms! you should see for your self

thedonutswere dry. very average. a bag of hostess would be as good.

may have to wait a bit but worth it! we had a great breakfast & took thedonutswith us. come early fordonutsas they sell out.

tried and true. we have been coming to miramar beach for 30 years and absolutely love the donut hole. thedonutsare fantastic. they sell out early if it is high season and definitely the favorites are gone by 10 am. if we do breakfast we come early if we don't want to wait. 10 am is peak time and if you are hungry and cranky, you might be happier elsewhere. they are a local favorite. they don't put up with attitude and they are a get 'em fed and get 'me out mentality. we eat there at least 5 times during our ten day stay. best items: bacon, monster omelette, hash browns, oj, pancakes.

donuts,donutseverywhere. thedonutsare amazing and a selection that seems endless. it's a "have to" whenever we are in the area. they also serve breakfast sandwhiches, but so far, i haven't been able to get past the donuts.
