the donut shoppe

this is simply the bestplaceto get donuts. i love them! they are perfect! you must go and try them for yourself. buy a dozen or two, some holes for the ride and a few "ugglies". every type of donut they have is excellent.

as donut shops go in general it's a little sub par. although, they are the best donuts i've found in the 3 years i've been living in jax. no crullers. the yeast was under developed in the glazed doughnuts. and, i suspect that the cooking oil could have been hotter because they were a little greasy. the bavarian cream was suspiciously pudding-like. and, everything i tried was a little on the overly sweet side. no savory options were offered. :(
for all of that, while i would never recommend thisplaceas a foodie destination, i probably will be back. like i said, depressingly, they're the best doughnuts i found in jacksonville so far. that's not saying much. but, it's something.

donuts. thisplacehas good donuts!

the bestplacein town. this is by far the best donutplacein town!!!!

hard to lose weight when i have to drive by thisplaceat least twice a week. i always get a dozen to share with the girls at the office. they swear i am trying to make then lose out biggest loser contest but the truth is these donuts are so good how could anyone not eat a couple. the office admin actually had the nerve to send me an email out to all users about the frequency people are allowed to bring in donuts. i typed a real nice reply but just showed it to my girls instead of sending it. lol. stupid skinny little boss's pet gets on my nerves.

the best donuts in the country!. i have been coming to the donut shoppe for over 10 years now. these guys make the best donuts i have ever had, period. go ahead and look up the doughnut plant in new york city, or randy's donuts in los angeles, or any other famous spot that has been featured on the travel channel or food network. i have been to both, and the donut shoppe here in jacksonville beats them all.

as a lot of people have stated, get here early. the best selection is before 8am. while everything they put out is heavenly, you must, i repeat, you must try the ugly. yes, it costs $1.83, which is slightly higher than the regular donuts, but they are 2 times the size, and more addicting than crack, heroine, tobacco, and reality tv combined!!!! as the guys from firehouse subs say on their commercials - "if you don't agree, it's free" - i can vouch for the uglies! come look me up if you do not have a religious experience while eating it.....i will reimburse you myself! no exaggerating.....if i were on my death bed and had time for one last meal, it would hands down be a warm ugly and a glass of milk.

the staff is awesome, especially susan - who knows the regulars by name! if you are in need of a sugar rush, this is theplaceto go. i promise you - happiness awaits!!

omg... i've had donuts in all the major us cities and none come close to these. arrive early as the donuts go fast! the glazed are sweet, soft, mouth watering heavenly delights. my favorite is the chocolate frosted glazed donut..... help me somebody!!! i live way too close and may have to join a 12 step donut program!! the apple fritters are wonderful and the cake donuts, very moist. when you first walk in it may seem the choices are limited compared to dd but then you realize who needs more when these satisfy every possible donut desire? oh and just for the record....most of the dd no longer make their own donuts!. they're brought in from an outside bakery every day! i don't cate where you live..... thisplaceis worth the drive. since they moved down the street, they've added coffee.... and it's really good! and yes they only take cash..... however they now have an atm right in the bakery! the donut shoppe is to die for!

doughnut heaven. i learned about these donuts from one of the docs i used to work with about 20 yrs ago. he would bring them in for the staff on sat and sun mornings. let's just say that after that i drove all up and down university blvd looking for that shoppe!!!!! and when i found it, it was on!!!!!!
this shoppe should be on diners, drive-ins, and dives as the best donut shoppe in the world!!!!
definitely worth the drive wherever you are and i've learned to get there early or call ahead toplacean order. :-)))))))

a new level of donut pleasure.. i admittedly had my skepticism about this place. i mean i was sure it was good , but how good can a donut really get? i had no idea before today. the texture is really exquisite. the glazed donuts and apple fritters are at once crispy , airy , and creamy you should definitely try at least those two things if you go. the cake donuts are amazingly moist. all the flavors all good really.. fresh kripsy kreme or dunkin donuts absolutely pale in comparison.

the lady at the counter , susan , was very pleasant and friendly.

it's a bit of a drive from where i live , but well worth it. i don't care what part of town you live in , you owe it to yourself to try thisplaceat least once.

yeah good doughnuts "but". ok they are good doughnuts but it seems that everytime i go there they are out of my favorite apple fritters..and i have gotten there early too..now they have moved down the street next to "broken spoke." so maybe they will get on the ball since it is a biggerplaceand make a bigger quantity of your favorites and mine..who knows we'll see just how important customers are i guess...

the best. the donut shoppe has the best donuts in jax. i love kk and dd but thisplaceis just special. be sure to get there early and stand in line.

delish apple fritters. we happened upon thisplaceaf coming out of the thai restaurant in the same complex & decided to "be bad" & split an apple fritter. it was the best i've had in jax & the very friendly asian man was very sweet & hospitable.

yumm!!!!!!. best donuts in town!! call early toplacean order to get your favorites. they sell out fast. we make a trip out of it and drive in from orange park. yes...they are that good!!!

little taste of heaven......... thisplacewas super crowded at 8:00am but the donuts are out of this world yummy!!! they melt in your mouth. i especially liked the cinnamon & glazed one : ) will def be back for my little taste of heaven .

so good people wait for 'em. now you know aplacehas the best donuts in town when they are nearly sold out by 930am and people are waiting for them to make more!! we've gone once a month the past few months and are always greeted with salivating customers waiting to be served. our last trip there, we found that by 930am -- the donut case was nearly empty and they were taking orders for glazed donuts only. we were able to get a donut stick, blueberry, and chocolate donuts in addition to our fresh warm glazed donuts...lemme just tell you that if you've never had a freshly glazed donut from tds, you're missing out...its a party in the tummy!
