Insane, best donuts in Seattle
Nicole Q.

Absolute perfection. Delicate flavor. Crispy fried exterior, fluffy and soft interior. Incredible donut!

Normandean C.

I think what this place does is it's made to order so each donut is fresh. Any you can enjoy them to their full potential. Pairs well with a hot brewed coffee. Always have creative, cravable, flavor combinations. Only issue I've experienced with the traveling food truck location is that one of the donuts I received was slightly under fried. It was edible but the inner texture was somewhat doughy. Regardless the satisfaction of the flavors were enough to tip the scales for me to overlook it. None were overly too sweet or overly tart. Please go out and support them.

I'm not usually a huge donut person, but 9th and Hennepin 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!

Delicious. Order ahead. Easy pickup. I would recommend you pick up as soon as they are ready and eat them. They are hot and amazing. Had the pumpkin braid and the brioche with pear. They are doughy and the flavors are spot on. Not overly sweet or artificial. I can't wait to try again!

Hot and fresh donuts, what could be better??!?!? We caught the truck at urban family on Sunday morning and hot donuts were being fried up right before our eyes. There was a steady flow of people ordering and picking up. We put in a quick order, originally planning to just get two donuts, but three of them sounded too good to resist. Lots of seating out in Urban Family's patio and a lively atmosphere of people getting coffee and hanging out. Called back to pay after a few minutes. It's a one man operation in there, so he had his own flow going. Within 10 minutes we had hot and fresh donuts and they were scrumptious! Each super unique using fresh and local ingredients, the strawberry glaze was bright and fresh, peach filling the brioche tasty, and the whole berries in the fritter were delightful. Definitely will be coming back for more!

Happened upon this place by luck while showing out of town friends around. We were a little confused because we didn't realize it was just a window butttttt once we figured it out, we ordered a donut off each flavor and wow were they delicious! They are fried as you order so sometimes if they have a line it online orders it can take a few minutes but it is so worth it. The donuts remind me of like the old school donut shops back in California with cake donuts, just with really interesting and unexpected flavors. I've been three times now which doesn't seem like a lot but I've made the drive just for these and I live over an hour away lol. They're delicious, give them a try!

The food truck came to our office building, and I never seen a donut food truck before, and decided to check it out because I saw that they always had interesting and unique flavors. There were three different flavors to choose from. I was shocked to see that they were only $3.50 each, especially coming from a food truck. I decided to try just one, and got the Sherry Vinegar Pear Fritter with Blueberry Glaze. He actually fried the donut and glazed it there; I thought they would just have it all ready to go. The donut was nice and fresh. The texture was really good. All the donuts came with glaze, so I was worried they'd be too sweet, but no, this donut with the blueberry glaze was not too sweet at all. It was so tasty. That one donut made me wanting to try more flavors. I hope the food truck comes around again.

Menu at Urban Family Brewing - 9/15/24

I'm still a fan of 9th & Hennepin! Recently caught them on a Sunday at Urban Family Brewing and am so glad they are in the northern part of Seattle (at least for now) at this location on Sundays! Delridge was hard for me to get to so I'm happy that I can enjoy these donuts more often. If you come to the truck at Urban Family Brewing, I recommend coming on the earlier side -- the shift is 8-12 and I came around 11:45 or so and was too late as they were sold out! Love the rotating menu each week. Flavors continue to be unique and delicious as well as seasonal. I recently enjoyed a blueberry sour cream cake donut with fresh hops glaze - yum! Soo good. Pricing is definitely fair/reasonable! My only minor complaint is that sometimes the donuts can be pretty greasy but nothing beats a donut fresh out of the fryer :)

Alisa K.

The best donuts in all of Washington state (i didn't try any other donuts) If I'm correct this is run by one guy who rotates 4 flavors of donuts every week. We went to their ghost kitchen (?) on the weekend to pick up a full set of donuts ($12 for 4) and they make them fresh for every single order. Piping hot donuts hit like no other in seattle. Then a few days later they were selling donuts in a food truck at a brewery (with 2 new flavors) so we went and got a full set again with. I wish this existed in calfornia

Weekend menu

Hot fresh donuts from a ghost kitchen window in Delridge on Sunday morning. Very easy online ordering - we ordered in advance for a 15 minute window. We were early and they made our donuts as soon as we arrived, so there was a very short wait. I loved my gluten free poppyseed cake donut with an apricot glaze - it was light, fluffy, and with a perfect balance of delicate crunch and tender chewiness. The best gluten free baked goods are ones that are entirely delicious of their own accord and this donut met the bill. I did not have the remaining three donuts - the french cruller with cinnamon sugar, the blackberry filled brioche donut with the urfa biber glaze, and the Rainier cherry fritter with a white chocolate glaze - but the donut-devouring team that I travel with made very short work of them and pronounced them excellent. Cherry hand pie was also delicious according to the team. Menu changes weekly and they may not always have a gluten free option? I would generally recommend eating these hot - because texture and temperature were fantastic - and conveniently there is a picnic table in front of the ghost kitchen on the sidewalk.

They were open at the Trolstice Festival in Fremont. They had some entering flavors and I had a panettone donut. Donuts were made to order and served hot and delicious.

Food: what's not to love? Hot and fresh donuts made to order, hell yes. My boyfriend ordered them through their app, and schedule it for a pick up. Quick and efficient, perfect for any introvert who panic orders.

Who doesn't love a fresh, warm donut? Not anyone, I say. And if by chance donuts are not your jam, you should definitely pre-order and try 9th & Hennepin because they'll probably change your mind. We've had it on our Yelp hit list for a while, and it didn't disappoint. It's at least a 4 out of 5 star rating and would recommend in a heart beat. The staff was friendly and you can tell by their customer interaction that they have a lot of regulars. Also, they rotate their online menu and I appreciate their unique flavor combinations. We tried the following: -- Ricotta Cake donut with Roasted pears, fresh Thyme sugar -- Espresso flavored cake donuts with spiced condensed milk glaze -- Filled brioche cranberry curd, with apricot ginger glaze -- Honey roasted rhubarb fritter, grand marnier glaze We couldn't eat the donuts right away because we were on our way somewhere. However, I couldn't handle waiting and the amazing smell permeating the car got to me, even to the point where I asked...(maybe demanded)...that we pull over and devour them one by one in front of a random yoga studio. Really like that their donuts aren't too sweet, and they all had nice, subtle flavors. My two repeat donuts would definitely be the honey roasted rhubarb fritter and Ricotta Cake donut with Roasted pears and fresh Thyme sugar. One word: Yum!

It was like a casual, ceremonial date, so beautiful I couldn't resist taking a picture. The scene was as serene and warm as the sunset in the background.

While Post Alley sits adjacent to Pike's Place, it's finding the elusive door to The Pink Door on Post Alley that had Google Maps routing in circles. But, once you find this elusive door; the food and ambience is worth the rounded turns. A friend and local Seattle-ian had recommended Italian at The Pink Door. At First Glance: we've walked by the door to the restaurant multiple times without even knowing. From the inside and down a wooden staircase, is a rustic dining room and a lively atmosphere. Service: we had arrived just past 1PM, and while it seemed busy, we were seated right away. Our waitress was friendly and routinely checked on our table for anything we may need. Libations: what's a meal without a cocktail or two? - Salute: no, that's the name of this citrusy drink in a coupe champagne glass. Refreshing and sweet. - Watermelon Margarita: classic and well shaken. I licked everything down to the salt rim. Shared at the table: - Mama's Meatballs: these aren't your basic beef meat balls - they're better. Tender and seasoned perfectly. - Bruschetta: heirloom tomato's, fresh mozzarella, balsamic, olive oil and basil is the quintessential Italian one bite. - Lasagna: I'm used to the heavy and multi layered baked Italian pasta dish, and this was absolutely not that. Instead, a minimally layered pasta dish where the cheese and tomato sauce are the stars. Light and delicious. - Tiramisu: the best espresso, lady fingers, and creamed dessert I've ever had at any Italian restaurant. This is a must try for dessert. We came hungrily and left happily.

We got the pumpkin walnut muffin ($5.90) and a vegan chocolate chip cookie ($4.90). They were both really good but I think the cookie really stood out - it was the biggest GF vegan cookie I've ever seen, and it wasn't overly crumbly which most GF baked goods are. A little pricier than GF baked goods I've seen at coffee shops but I think it makes sense since you're paying for the fact that it's a gluten free dedicated kitchen and to have more choices (donuts, cookies, muffins, little cakes, quiches.) Staff was nice, and it wasn't busy at all right at opening on a Saturday morning in July. I would think of it as a grab-and-go place more than a sit down place as the inside isn't particularly cute or inviting, and there is pretty limited outdoor seating. Grab a pastry, then go enjoy it with a coffee at a park nearby!

They're going for healthy fast casual style counter service with an "ethic fusion" flair. Decent number of options including vegetarian, vegan, etc. It's not cheap but the servings are large: big enough for 2 meals for a lot of people. The food tends to be pretty heavy/oily, which contributes to how filling it is but also leaves you feeling weird after your meal. Flavor is otherwise pretty good. They also seem to run out of ingredients pretty often. Overall it's ok for a quick lunch but not my favorite.

All the food was tasty and reasonably priced. The portions were quite good too. I was very impressed by the flavor despite the gluten free element - cliche but not everywhere that does gluten free does it well. This place does! They also had a unique canned drink selection too. Service - they were very patient and explained everything. They also were speedy and made some solid recommendations. Ambiance - there's a few areas to sit down, but not too many. I think it's more a grab and go spot based on the fast food style set up and packaging (which is all compostable!). It's also only open for lunch on weekdays so that makes sense for the working crowd. The little raised tables facing the window give a nice lighting and view though and the decor is modern and bright.

Potato skins and garlic rice were good too, though less garlic would have been better. Could easily make this into a garlic egg fried rice and larger portions. The staff were super attentive and took time to explain everything to first time visitors. Steady stream of take out orders as seating is limited. Would come back to try the other sides too. Happy to report no reaction for gluten free member of our family, top marks for safety.

It's nice that they will text you when it's done, so you don't need to hang around. There's plenty to see and do in the area.

Also, be aware that there is practically nowhere to sit except on the the sidewalk or at one of their three tables. You will want to take your food elsewhere. I had a bacon egg biscuit with a side of cheesy grits and a cup of coffee. The biscuit sandwich was excellent with a fried egg and thin, crispy bacon. The bitch sauce and the cheese is what makes this so special. The cheesy grits were also really good and very cheesy. I struggle to give this five stars as I don't know if it's worth it if you have to wait over an hour like I did, but if I only had to wait 30 minutes I may have felt different.
