    Low calorie right?
    Shelley S.

    This local donut bakery has had challenges. It looks like they are open again. Prices seem a bit high to me and the price per dozen does not include the specialty donuts. There was not a wait when I visited but it was early when I stopped in. The donuts do taste really good though. For a dozen it was $13.00. They also have single serving drinks too.

    My boyfriend and I took the kids to get donuts on Saturday morning. The donut shop is in a run down shopping center but after reviewing yelp we really wanted to give it a try. The inside is small with minimal seating. We were greeted right away. We each picked out what we wanted. 7 donuts and 3 drinks and the total was around $12. I thought the pricing was very fair. The donuts were delicious. We will definitely be coming back.

    One time my stepdad had told me that this place had awesome donuts. We went there one time and had ok-ish donuts. He said that we should come here another time when the donuts were fresher. I went back by myself a few years later to see if it was just a matter of coming at the right time, and my opinion that this place has ok-ish donuts still stands. I got myself a custard filled, a blueberry cake, an old fashioned, and a maple glazed. The blueberry cake and old fashioned were dense and didn't taste 100% right. The yeast donuts were more on the ballpark of being donuts, and I liked the maple glazed and the custard filled. This is another place that I suggested the yeast as opposed to the cake donuts. Otherwise, it's average.

    Southend's little secret. Best donuts in the city hands down. Get there early if you want a better selection. They go fast!

    Went early on a Saturday morning. Not much seating inside (1 small table and then a long bench with…read morea small table). Really enjoyed the assortment of donuts.

    Bucket list check mark! A co-worker treated me earlier this week with Bamboo's blueberry and red…read morevelvet donut. On Saturday I took an impromptu trip with my husband. We weren't certain what they'd have left but we had several options. Today I got to indulge in the strawberry donut with buttercream frosting and the OG chocolate donut with sprinkles. The OG was a denser cake, somewhat between a donut and piece of cake with chocolate frosting. The blueberry and strawberry donut were softer but still had chew before it melted in my mouth. Loved my Vietnamese coffee - flavorful and not too sweet. They had a lot of drink options, including a seasonal menu. I left with a thick slice of banana bread with sesame. Can't wait to eat it because I've heard wonderful things about the flavor. Service was amazing. We enjoyed speaking with the owners / workers. It's a small space and has a lot of energy at the counter. They handled the crowd well and our food was boxed, drinks made quickly. A few tables and wall bench provide seating plus patio tables. Bamboo shares space with several businesses and parking is plentiful. #supportlocal

    I am joining the chorus to agree that these are the best donuts in Louisville. The cream cheese…read moretriangle is my go-to; the donut has a perfect fluffy texture, the cream cheese filling is sweetened juuuuust right, and something about the triangle shape - easy to hold, and easy to eat - is oddly satisfying. Everything on the King Donuts menu is fantastic. If you order a fruit smoothie or a breakfast sandwich, they make it for you right there on the spot. One piece of advice: if you take home a dozen or a half-dozen donuts, make sure that you refrigerate anything that you don't eat right away. There are virtually NO preservatives in the icings or fillings here, which unfortunately does mean that the donuts won't last at room temperature. However, they do taste great chilled, and they last quite a while in the refrigerator!

    I went to this location for the first time this morning and the sour cream donut was outstanding,…read morethe best I have ever had. I noticed the menu also had kolaches, and the donuts and the like were attractively presented for viewing in a traditional glass enclosure. I am just rating this establishment 4 instead of 5 stars because there was not anything special about the ambience although there were a few small tables to sit at that were clean. And the woman who helped us was nice and generous.
