Doughnuts are made 'in house'. Staff usually will pull your doughnut off the 'just baked' rack so it may even be warm. Toppings are fresh and THICK; choose from chocolate; glazed; maple or even plain... Buttermilk bars; cake donuts and old fashions are just a few of the choices available. Jay Kenny (owner) is approachable and has donated donuts to many a charitable cause...! read more

The store was clean and inviting. The employees were friendly and helpful. They always have a good variety of donuts, fritters and cinnamon rolls. The donuts were very fresh. This is a great place for locals. I completed this review and I keep getting a message saying that I need to write a review!!! read more

We dropped by Doughboys Donuts to pick up some sweet treats; when we arrived at the shoppe, they were devoid of customers but as soon as we stood at the counter to make our selections, an influx of customers walked through the door. They had several varieties that f donuts to choose from but didn't have a particular donut my sister wanted (the chocolate creme-filled one); so, we opted for half a dozen donuts. instead: 3 sugar donuts, 2 chocolate-glazed bars and an "Angel"-creme filled, chocolate-glazed donut. The service was courteous and efficient; my "Angel" creme donut was just alright. The donut tasted a little stale and there was barely any creme n the donut. Donuts shoppes use to filled the center of the donuts, this barely broke the surface of the donut. So, overall, our visit was pleasant enough but the donuts were just average. read more

Quality/Quantity - Wow, just realized it is time for an update. As you can tell from my pictures, we are loyal customers. We get our consistent weekly order, cut the donuts in half (so the kids do not get over sugared up. Yes, they can grab two halves, lol...). And this is when I get my weekly half donut treat, thank you. Trying to stay healthy. Known for your "Big Boy" donuts; too bad they are just way too big for me, LOL. Ambiance - Decent size location. Plenty of mall parking. Open 7 days a week. See my picture for hours. Service - Good, consistent. Delivery available. Price - Good. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1980 and your 3 locations here since 2009. Next time we are in Camarillo, CA, we will visit your Rolling Pin Donut location as well. Also, it is nice to hear about your family's history: your partners founded the business in 1980 in Hollywood, CA as a LA police officer. Just noticed on your website, each location is independently owned and operated? Are you a franchise now? read more

I've been visiting this Doughboys location since it first opened when I was just a young kid. This place is consistently serving up some of the best doughnuts in the Reno-Sparks area. This location is small with just a few tables, but the doughnuts are plentiful! Apple fritter and buttermilk bars from here are two of my faves. My kids like the large selection of classic sprinkle options. They also have a small selection of milk, juices and coffees. Very friendly people here plus a drive thru for the ultimate convenience! The prices are very reasonable as well, especially compared to many bakeries nowadays. With several locations in the area, you cannot go wrong with stopping into a Doughboys! read more

These folks are service oriented. Upon entering, I had a couple folks in line ahead of me. Two staffers stepped up to the counter to take orders from all three of us simultaneously. I didn't see a chocolate cruller in the display case and asked...two left! The place is clean and decorated for Christmas to include window paintings. The crullers are thoroughly cooked, have that eggy flavored dough, and the icing was not completely dry- still somewhat liquid under the top glaze. Had a decent chocolate flavor. I would come back. Price was reasonable at ~$3.70 for the two. read more

How have I never reviewed this place? We lived about 1.5 miles from this location years ago and we came back into town for spring break and my first requirement? Doughboys donut holes with sprinkles! Why are they so crunchy and delicious? Our kids don't remember but now they're converts and insist we go back once more before we leave town. My son wants to buy as many that fit into his carry-on. Haha. Needless to say, donuts here are excellent. read more

First off my eye doctor owns the one in sparks they have the best doughnut ever they are delicious i love going in there the staff is very nice kind they make the doughnut fresh i recommend it read more

Getting Doughboy Donuts is always a test in my restraint. How many glazed donuts at once is too much? Asking for a friend.... Don't think. Just buy all the donuts. And remember weekend calories don't count. read more

When you find that place that makes amazing donuts, it becomes the only place where you can buy donuts. Doughboy Donuts is that place (for me). While I'm sure the recipes are the same across their three locations, I personally think the South Reno location on Damonte is the best. When we used to come to Truckee (from the Bay Area), we would drive all the way to Damonte Ranch, just for Doughboy Donuts. They are that good. They make donuts throughout the day so they are fresh when ever you come. They have late hours, closing at 8pm (check hours). My favorite are the Glazed Raised and Glazed Twist. While my wife favors the Chocolate Bar or Sugar Raised. For amazing donuts, look no further than Doughboy Donuts. read more

Always a pleasure! We love us some donuts once in a while! The staff is always so welcoming. I recall once we ended up picking up a dozen, and came home to find out the donuts were all wrong. Called and spoke to a woman, she made up a new box and had it ready with no charge as soon as we arrived. Sooo kind! So delish! read more

Rude service every single visit. From employees treating new arrivals at the drive-thru before any counter service, to employees chatting with each other instead of serving customers, to flat out wrong orders, this place is staffed by some of the rudest people I've ever encountered. Nobody wants to cashier here. I tip 30% routinely on my bi-weekly visits and these folks are still pissed off every time I go in there. The doughnuts are standard fare - nothing exceptional over the worst donut you've ever had, nor do they stand out from the best donut you've ever had. The parking lot is rather unfortunately situated so the drive through spills-out into a turn late right in front of a stop sign, so traffic jams are to be expected in the morning, and the few high tables in the shop are definitely indicative they don't want loiterers. Of my few experiences shopping here - Absolutely ignored by staff to continue their own conversation (today's visit) - only person in line, waiting, and two of them are looking at me but continuing to talk to each other rather than engage with me. Charged me for 4 donuts (when I only purchased 3) as a penalty for interrupting their mid-morning break, I guess? Had someone walk away from the counter on me to help prepare a meal in the back, leaving FOH for drive-through work with an extensive line and customers buying multiple dozens of donuts. Employee threw the bag of donuts on the counter and walked away from the register without another word after ringing the donuts in. Should have just walked out with the bag full of broken donut bits! Why beg for tips if you're gunna be shitheads to your customers anyway? Disgruntled Donut Dispensary. read more

Shoutout to Doughboys Donuts for holding down Hanukkah traditions of sufganiyot, aka jelly donuts, year after year. We had an opportunity to host a Hanukkah party for my son's first grade class and that meant we HAD to bring sufganiyot to share with the kids! There was only one place to call, and on short notice Doughboys made a large custom order of 40 powdered sugar raspberry jelly donuts happen for us! The party was so special! We shared latkes, dreidels, the story of hanukkah, and sufganiyot, and everyone left smiling ear to ear, including us. It's so meaningful to be able to do this for our son and introduce others to our culture and religion, and I'm grateful for businesses like Doughboys, who go the extra mile to make sure we're able to do that! read more

Doughboys Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Reno, Nevada

This has been my go to local donut shop for years that they even were a part of our dessert wall for my wedding! It's great for early mornings like before or after the great reno balloon races or to bring to dinner parties. Their donuts have always been a favorite of mine. They have many different kinds, but mine is a raised maple bar. The dough is so light and airy. They also have pastries too! I love the jalapeno cheddar croissant warmed! I like this location as it has drive through which is convenient. Most of the time it is available but sometimes there is a cone blocking the way meaning that the drive through is closed, which I've only encounter that twice. I've never had an issue ordering, service is quick and the everyone are always happy to help! read more

I used the drive up because I was in a hurry this morning and I started to select certain donuts and then she asked me if she wanted me to pre-select or if she wanted her to select them so I got a few that I wanted and then she selected the rest. She selected a glazed donut, a jelly donut, and a cinnamon roll and a bar. Probably not the things I would've definitely picked I would not have picked those. They're a little on the pricey side for a glazed donut. Not the best place for donuts in town, but they are decent. read more

Doughboys Donuts - Box - Donuts Near Me - Reno, Nevada

5/5 for doughnuts as per usual 3/5 for service so I'll go with 4/5 total... Came in Sunday morning for a quick treat and was definitely not disappointed with my food! Unfortunately they were out of my favorite item - almond croissants but I was still happy with my other choices, jalapeno cheddar croissant, strawberry turn over, two maple bars and two doughnuts. So yum! The staff all was absolutely miserable. Not sure why any of the employees work here as it was painfully obvious how much no one wanted to be there. The employee who helped me was rude. The employees helping the other customers were rude. Everyone seemed tired and disgruntled. I came at 9:30 am so it wasn't that early..... definitely the most unfriendly dough boys I've been to read more

10/15/2025 0900am Went to this place off Damonte ranch and they are so rude. I'm in line and no one would help me and they let everyone cut in front of me. I even made eye contact with the lady behind the counter and said hi and she went into help another customer that just walked in. People are jerks there! I would find another place that actually has kind workers and that will actually help you when you come in to the store!! read more

We were in the area today, and my daughter requested that we stop for doughnuts. I've been super disappointed with service at Maeanne and Sparks locations lately. I will walk in and see 3 or four kids playing in NW. No greeting or offer of service. The next patron will walk in, and they will be greeted and asked if they need help, but I waited at least 5 minutes. The last time I walked into the NW store, I walked right back out. One of the girls working was twirling her bangs with food gloves on. Seriously, so gross! I'm glad today that wasn't an issue, but talk to your employees. That's not okay. We love the array of fresh doughnuts and had to pick up a cup of coffee. They have more flavor options than our local Starbucks. Every store has the same look, but I just wish service was better in Sparks and NW Reno. Their shops are fairly clean and do expect it to be fairly busy on the weekends. Your chocolate chip roll will always have a special place in my heart. We'll be back, but we will have to go elsewhere if the service at the other stores doesn't improve. read more

Needed to visit this local legend of a donut shop after reading recommendations (some said best donuts in South Lake Tahoe! ). First, service was excellent - with lots of employees ready to fill the box and get me on my way. Second, selection - tons of choices from timeless standards to fun/innovative options. Finally, I LOVED the "serving-sized" Apple Fritter, PERFECT with a cup of coffee. So run don't walk to this donut shop. You'll be glad you did!!! read more

If you need a quick breakfast check out Doughboy Donuts. They have several locations around town, and while the selection can vary, the quality never does. On a recent visit, we picked up a dozen of their donut holes, a lemon-filled donut, and an old-fashioned chocolate-glazed donut. Their donut holes are buttermilk donuts with a choice of glaze, crumbles, or sprinkles. They're heavier than most donut holes but still delicious. The lemon-filled donut had plenty of filling and just the right amount of glaze, while the old-fashioned was topped with tasty chocolate frosting. We've never been there when they didn't have a good selection. They also offer good coffee, cinnamon buns, and croissants. Check them out next time you need a donut fix! read more

BEST DONUTS EVER .. Want a great donunt get Doughboys we love geting these. Their customer service is always fantastic very helpful..

We have lived in Reno 30 years. We have tried nearly all of the doughnut shops in the area. None of the other doughnut shops compare in the least to Doughboy Doughnuts. Doughboy is always fresh, high quality, tasty, and no matter how busy they are (and they do get busy) the service is fast, efficient, and the employees are friendly. read more

Best donuts I've ever had. Staff is always friendly. I highly recommend them for a delicious sweet treat.

Since I was maybe six, if you wanted a doughnut, this was the place to go. Now I'm 22 and still craving a twist in the morning. Mellissa is amazing!!! She actually remembers my sister and I by name and it makes us feel like regulars. I love the vibe. The coffee. The doughnuts. I could not recommend this place more. read more

We are loyal customers of Doughboys for many years. We have always appreciated the freshness and overall taste of the donuts. We used to be able to get a big box and eat them over several days. It does seem that on our last few visits, the donuts have not been as fresh. They stale quickly. Our last 4-5 visits have been the same experience and we are hoping it can turn around. read more

Small shop with good not great food. They have a couple tables outside for nicer days. The service was fine, not overly friendly, but not cantankerous. read more

I've been going to this Doughboys for a few years now but I don't go there very often. This place is hit and miss. Sometimes they have donuts, sometimes they don't. A few times they have closed really early because they ran out of donuts. When they are open, they had a limited selection of donuts. My kid wanted donuts so we stopped at Doughboys a couple days ago and there was a sign on the door saying they were closed, they ran out of donuts. We ended up driving to Jelly Donuts and getting some there. We've been to the Doughboys in Sparks and I don't remember having an issue of a donut shortage with that store. Must be poor management in the south Reno store. Meh. read more

I stopped by here to get some donuts for work, got a dozen and a cup of cappuccino. At the parking lot, accidentally dropped my cup of cappuccino. Ahhhh! What did I just do!!!- That's what was going in my head! In the middle of my shocked-sad-reaction, the wonderful lady behind the counter at Doughboys yelled from the door asking if I wanted a new cup!!! YES! Thank you! I super appreciate it --- so much that it made me teary eyed at the stoplight! Peanut Butter Log ---yummmmm! All their donuts are awesomazing really, fresh and super soft! Their customer service just took their awesomeness to another level of greatness!!!! read more

Walked right in, there was no line and few people in the bakery in the afternoon. They ran out of the croissants that we came for so we ordered a half dozen donuts plus an extra pineapple strudel bc it's not included in the half dozen price. Came home and we only had 5 donuts...we were missing a maple bar although we were charged extra for the pineapple strudel. On top of that the service was a bit eeeehhh. The girl working the counter seemed to not want to be at work today and was very short with us. Doughnuts were good just make sure to check your boxes and count your donuts read more

I was staying the night very close to this place and stumbled across it during my walk. One of the best stumbles ever! I am a huge fan of chocolate-covered Old-Fashioned donuts, so I ordered one. I can state, without any hesitation, that this was the best Old-Fashioned I have had in my 63 years on earth. I wish I lived in the area so I could try more of their products. Simply, fantastic. I wrote this review about 2 weeks after my visit, that's how good it was. When doing so, I read some of the other reviews. I cannot believe what people complain about in their 1-star reviews. One person was upset because they were closed well before he arrived, which was after their posted hours of operation. Isn't that your responsibility to see a business's hours of operation? Then another gave a 1-star review because their drive-thru speaker sucked. Really? Did you consider taking the actual donut into account too? I'm glad you read about this great donut shop, but sorry for the long-winded rant. If you've read this far, you really need to find better things to do with your time ;-) Like, grab a donut at Doughboys Donuts. read more
