    8oz mocha with coconut milk
    Layne D.

    We happened to walk by Big Wig and on a whim decided to pop in. Neither of us are GF or vegan but we really enjoyed these donut holes!! We tried one of each flavor that was available: chocolate sprinkle, chocolate matcha, lemon poppyseed, cinnamon sugar, maple, and apple cider chai. I also tried an 8oz mocha with coconut milk. The mocha was very good! Perfect size and mellow flavor. The coconut milk was a good choice. The donut holes themselves were very good. Our favorites were the chocolate sprinkle and cinnamon sugar but I'm so glad we tried them all. The staff were very friendly as well. Overall definitely worth a stop if you're in the area!

    A box of heaven on earth

    Rather than post another photo of the donut holes (but I am posting a photo anyway), I wanted to also say how the gentleman behind the counter, whom I believe to be the owner, deserves an award as Friendliest Nicest Person in Salem. Honestly, he is so genuinely warm, welcoming and friendly, PLUS you're getting delicious fresh unique donut holes AND great coffee, it's a total win-win. I ALWAYS feel cheerful leaving there with a smile every time I visit this establishment. If you're ordering coffee, he always asks if it tastes OK and is clearly interested in making sure you like what you ordered. The variety of innovative flavors and freshness of the donut holes are spectacular. Visit often! They continuously change up the selection.

    Yep, this place serves delicious donut holes. You won't find full-size donuts, but delicious bites of heaven instead. They are gluten free and vegan This is my second time here. I have tried all the flavors. This last visit I had the lemon poppyseed and chocolate peppermint. The lemon poppyseed is my absolute fave. My only regret is not getting more. Limited hours so make sure to check when they are open. Open Wednesday thru Saturday. You can call in ahead your order for easy pickup. They also have coffee here and other hot drinks. I had a butterscotch latte I think. I was happy they have alternative milks. My latte was ok, the temp was too cold. Other than that I always have a great experience here. Please support small businesses like this one. Especially since they are good for everyone! My friends that aren't gluten free love them too!

    1. The workers very kind and polite. 2. The atmosphere is great. 3. THE DONUT HOLES We got lemon poppyseed, maple, cinnamon sugar and the raspberry. The raspberry is a must try, the initial flavor profile is AMAZING. You get a very strong raspberry taste at first but it mellows out into perfection. Just don't get less then a dozen because you'll regret it if you don't.

    There's not enough good things I can say about this place. I cannot have gluten or dairy so you can imagine the last time I was able to eat a donut was a long time ago. We went here on a whim because I was craving them, and I'm so glad we did! We tried one of each flavor and each was better than the last, I would say the glazed chocolate was a surprising show stopper even though it's a simple flavor. They also have delicious coffee and non coffee based beverages. Can't wait till I can get my next dozen!

    First of all there NO donuts at Big Wig Donuts. Zero, zilch, none. Silly me for expecting donuts at a store that has donuts in it's name. They do have tiny little balls of donut holes. They are literally half cooked and are dense and damp inside. How does gluten free equal gluey? They're also not inexpensive. 3 of these little wet balls will set you back 3.50 but you can get a dozen for 10 bucks if you've got a sawbuck to waste. I think about 6 of these holes equal 1 actual donut. They seem to be mainly a coffee shop. Right after I inquired about donuts I was asked if they "could get a drink started" for me. Bait and switch! There are literally 10 other places to get coffee and tea in a 2 block radius of this place, so why bother coming here.

The donuts are self-serve with trays and tongs. They had a wide variety available. I selected a original glazed, a pretty in pink (strawberry glazed), a chocolate and a pandan. I also ordered two K-dogs (Korean-style elevated corn dogs), and a classic pearl milk tea with the standard brown sugar boba. My order was ready in less than 10 minutes. My drink was a pretty standard boba drink. Good, but nothing special. The drinks are very customizable, with ice amount and sweetness level just two of the options. The K-dogs were really tasty. I got an Potato Dog (which is a corn dog covered with crispy potato cubes and served with a fry sauce). The other dog I chose was the Gochujang Dog: their standard corn dog with Gochujang sauce. You have the option of having your K-Dog stuffed with mozzarella, a hotdog, or half hotdog and half mozzarella. I did half dog, half mozzarella on both. The cheese made the K-Dogs like huge fried mozzarella sticks. I enjoyed both, they were huge, and I ended up splitting them with a friend. I had both sauces on the side as my order was to go, and both complimented the rich cheese/dogs nicely. The fry sauce was rich and tangy, and the Gochujang a little spicy and a little sweet. The donuts were good too. This was my first time trying mochi donuts. The mochi flour gives the donuts a firmer and denser texture than your standard donut. I love other mochi desserts, but here I missed the lightness and melt-in-your-mouth quality of regular donuts. That is more of a personal preference, but something to be aware of, especially if you are sensitive to textures in food. It seemed like most of the individual flavors of each donut came more from the toppings rather than the donut itself. That isn't unusual with donuts of any kind. The service was awesome, and I was intrigued most by the K-Dogs. I will be back when I am in the mood for an different kind of treat.

    Sooo good !! Not another place like this in Salem. Definitely worth a try. Get the classic Korean…read moredog and the ube donut

They weren't parked at river front any more so I tracked their number down threw yelp. Andrea who's the owner of the business was super friendly and even offered to deliver me 6 mini vegan donuts to wherever I was!!! Not only vegan donuts but delivered right to me! How awesome is that!?!? We met up later that day and her donuts were amazing!! This has to be the coolest little traveling donut shop ever!! I highly recommend their donuts whether your vegn or not!
