The husband is very very rude go to the other location in gainesville downtown better atmosphere and much much better service. The owner should be ashamed of himself the way he treats and talks to customers - how embarrassing read more

I love Danny's, however I come in to get a blended ice coffee and order it. The guy makes me an iced coffee and I informed him I asked for frozen drink and he says too late you have to pay for it if you want it. I think I'll go else where. What kind of place doesn't make it right. read more

The chocolate frosting was inedible! We called afterwards and they said "sometimes they change the recipe". Like what?! The chocolate frosting tasted like acetone! Guess we should have tried the donuts before we drove away. The other donuts tasted fine, but they were small for the price. read more

Still the best donuts around. Love the breakfast sandwiches and burritos as well. My husband likes the apple fritter here and it's so hard to find a good one. They do have coffee drinks if your looking for breakfast. It's a locally owned place that now has several locations so bonus for supporting local. read more

I purchased a Danny's donut at Harbor Market in Gainesville Oakwood. This donut had to be made 2 weeks ago. It was a typical round donut with a chocolate topping. It was so dried out that when I broke it in half with my hands it made fine bread crumbs for all over the place. The chocolate on top of it was also a problem because it was smeared and tasteless. I don't mind spending a dollar1 79 for a donut that cost about 25 cents to make if it's going to be a decent donut. This was horrible. Never again for Danny's Donuts read more

"An enormous dish of balls of sweetened dough, fried in hog's fat, and called doughnuts, or olykoeks." Washington Irving History of New York 1809 According to the Oxford English Dictionary, Washington Irving was the very first to put this word into the English lexicon. (Although technically he was talking about doughnut holes) and if you're paying attention, it was doughnuts, not donuts. Donut, the American variant, first appeared in the late 1800s as a contraction of the original word, and didn't really catch on until very much later with the founding of Dunkin Donuts. Yeah, you can hit that little "useful" vote down there now. Danny's Donuts is a small donut shop which offers a very similar product as the aforementioned Dunkin Donuts, but in a mom and pop style shop. The prices are definitely better, Donuts run 90 cents each with half dozen at $4.95 and a dozen at $8.95. These are not fancy, designer donuts, and the shop itself is not upscale, chic or even hip casual. They are simple donuts displayed in utilitarian style behind functional glass cases with the requisite warnings not to knock on the glass. While labeling the donuts may cut back on the glass thumping, most of the customers here seem to know what they are getting. The Apple fritter is popular, and while not the biggest or the best, at .90 it's a good donut. Cinnamon rolls at .90 is also something not to overlook. The rest of the donuts are typical yeast and cake donuts. Overall, you get a good donut at a great price. The coffee is ground fresh and is a pretty decent cup. Danny's Donuts doesn't really have a lot of competition from any other independent shops in Gainesville, so it's placed well here to compete with the bigger chains. Did I mention donuts are 90 cents? read more

Very rude and stand offish worker. Not sure what chip she had on her shoulder, but tell her to leave it at home next time... Wish I knew her name so you'll could teach her something about customer service. read more

Close to my job and we order every week, sometimes I pick up the boxes and every time is a pleasant visit. Kind and fast. Love those donuts lol read more

Amazing local donut place!!!! People would get them and bring them to work in the ER all the time. This was my first time at this location. It did not disappoint! Great service for super yummy donuts! A go to if you like donuts. Maple bacon is my favorite! With the apple fritter a close second. read more

Their coconut donut is my favorite, the apple fritter is also great! The price is very reasonable! He doesn't charge more for certain donuts. We frequently get donuts from here. read more

Went in this morning and got a bagel with cream cheese, egg and bacon and started feeling awful a few min after eating. HORRIBLE acid indigestion - just awful! Was totally fine when I walked in. Egg was hot so I know that was just made but I think the bacon was old and rancid. Haven't been in this location in a long time. My daughter noticed how tiny the donuts are now. I do not recommend!! I'm seriously still belching burning acid after 2 damn hours! read more

We love Danny's donuts. My 4 year grandson and his Papa have Thursday donut day. When we started this at the beginning of this school year he first wanted to go to Dunkin Donuts cause that's where Mommy goes for coffee. I kept telling him that Danny's donuts are WAY better. After week 3 I asked him to just try Danny's just once. He came home and said Juju you were right I like Danny's better. He has never been back to the other place. Hahaha. read more

Dannys makes the best doughnuts in the area. Beats Duncan easy. The apple fritters are an emotional journey. I stop once a month..buy 5 dozen for work. The employees agree. read more

Unbelievable donuts. This is truly the best donut I've ever had. It is soft and light but has a bit of a chew. It is truly unique and memorable. 10/10 read more

Danny's Donuts is amazing. I grew up Krispy Kreme donuts and Danny's is so much better. We love to come here and get the breakfast burrito as well as the donuts. Danny's Donuts have several locations around the area, I have only been to this one location. I highly recommend trying it out and come early, they do sell out. read more

This place is incredible! Staff is super friendly, donuts are fresh, breakfast burrito is MASSIVE and the smoothies are delicious and refreshing! Also, love the fact that they offer local whole milk from Clermont, GA! We will definitely be back! read more

This shop is a nut free doughnut shop. They make everything in house. My child is able to eat everything there! It's also delicious.

Best donuts in town! Decent customer service and prices are reasonable. My favorite are the donut holes, and apple fritters. By lunch they are usually running low on other varieties, but everything available looks and tastes great! read more

Great donuts, poor service. If you're going to close early, post it on your website or something. Or make more donuts. Gets old quick driving to both locations and have them out of donuts or closed early hours before their posted time for closing. read more

Amazing donuts fresh and tasty. I would not change it, the staff is great and friendly.

This is a spic n span clean place that offers a wide variety of donuts and pastries. We samples a dozen holes that were hot and would vaporize in your mouth. The lemon filled donuts were a hit as did the chocolate covered with sprinkles. Kids love the selection. The also offer breakfast and lunch croissants. read more

I have always loved their donuts. Still do. But the donuts are half the size and prices up. Understand prices but give me a regular size donut. Apple fritter is so small. Two would be an old one. read more

If I could give them more than 5 stars I would! They are always very friendly here and the food blows anything you can get from dunkin out of the water. The breakfast sandwiches are incredible and I've tried maybe 15 different donuts and I've never been disappointed! read more

I'm from San Diego. And I like this place to. The blueberry donuts and melon dew tapioca bubble tea was amazing. I enjoyed the small glazed donut balls. read more

Their donuts are Amazing! My sister gets the boba tea all the time as well and loves it! The owners and workers there are also very nice! Good way to start our day read more

Yuck!! Old uncooked hard dough!! Not even a donut. Don't let the looks deceive you. Got overcharged and received crappy donuts and very mean service. They didn't give a damn. Same owners own all three locations and all are terrible especially the guy that runs the flowery branch and dawsonville location. Nasty and very rude!! read more

Best donuts ever! My nephew, who never gets excited about anything, bought a half dozen to take home. They are sweet and flavorful. I especially love the sour cream donuts and the apple fritters. Everybody who has them loves them. Just yum! read more

This place has the best donuts I have ever had. The doughnuts are better than Krispy Kreme and Dunkin' Doughnuts. Need I say more? Well the maple bacon and the maple doughnut are my favorite and the glaze doughnut holes are awesome as well. However, if you go one time then you will be back for more. These doughnuts are very addictive because they taste so good. They are freshly made everyday and must be treated with proper care by having your favorite beverage like a cup of coffee, hot chocolate or a glass of milk to really enjoy your doughnut. Furthermore, my family and I have really become frequent diners at this restaurant and they need to have a frequent diner program because I am sure that we would be getting our card punched weekly to achieve the incentive that could be offered. Nonetheless, I am just saying that they are the best doughnuts that I know about and have ever tasted and I just want to spread the wealth of my taste buds to somebody else that may be interested something that is so good. Finally, my recommendation is to go to Danny's Doughnut shop and your life will never be the same. You will be hooked like me and my family.....Enjoy!!!! read more

I have a hard time passing this new location... the donuts are fantastic and the people are great! My favorite are the apple filled raised bear claws but have enjoyed each new choice I have made. My husband loves the egg and cheese sandwich on a croissant... This place is a gem! read more

THIS IS THE BEST PLACE IVE BEEN IN GAINESVILLE!! Great people. SO NICE!! I recommend the mocha boba smoothie but if your feeling fruity then get the taro. Will go there everyday of the week until I die read more

All I have heard is you have to go to Danny's Donuts...have you gone to Danny's Donuts????? Well, I stopped by the Dawsonville Hwy store on my way to work and was truly very disappointed. I bought 3 donuts and all 3 were so greasy that I couldn't eat them. It left the roof of my mouth feeling as though I had eaten lard. I mentioned to my friend that I had tried them and they were horrible. She said the original one was not like that, they must have changed something. I said why would they change something that was working? But any way...my dannys donut experience was the worse.... read more
