We placed an order for delivery through uber eats. A breakfast sandwich and dozen donuts. Took over an hour to arrive and the only thing that was delivered was the sandwich. The driver said that all he got from the store was just the sandwich. The sandwich was cold, soggy, and not very flavorful. Overall disappointing, and I really was expecting better given my very positive experience having visited the original location in NC. Will not be ordering delivery from here again. read more

My order was not packaged for food delivery! Breakfast sandwich was smashed! Doughnut was packaged so SLOPPILY - I am not trusting food cleanliness! read more

This is the best donut place in DC. Fresh, warm and a variety of flavors. The only drawback is them all being cake donuts, not yeast. Also, each donut is the same, the only difference is the icing. read more

4 stars for the donuts by 3 for the service. Terrible customer service. If I order a small cup of coffee and the girl at the counter can't get it half filled with the old coffee in the carafes, yes, I'm going to want you do do what you have to do to get me a cup of coffee with no room for cream. So when she brewed a fresh pot, instead of pouring out the old cold coffee she merely topped off my half empty cup. When I asked her to por it out, she just looked at me. Stay for donuts but bring your own coffee. The donut batter is tender and delicious. The toppings put it over the top. read more

Love love love their fresh hot donuts!!!!! Went in for the first time today and I cant get enough! Got freshly made on the spot donuts, fresh glaze and lots of love. Absolutely loved the environment and the team! Def going back. Oh and the prices, they can not be beat!!!!!!! $1.60 for a donut. Any topping any flavor! Thats a steal You must try read more

Freshly made and delicious. Each donut was like a tiny gourmet cake. The icing and other toppings were tasteful and colorful. I will be returning there. read more

Wasn't allowed to order a donut with out a mask, rude staff. Pandemic is over. Won't be back.

I'm so happy to see duck donuts in Alexandria. I used to drive to Arlington just to get some donuts, sure it worth it, because they're amazing. Great flavors, always huge list of choices that you can go with depending of your favorite. But since duck donuts came to Alexandria I'm going to visit them more often. Welcome to out neighborhood. read more

[UPDATE 04.27.17] I gave this location a second try and when it has the least foot traffic, on a Thursday morning at about 6:45-ish a.m. There were 3 young men in the store that greeted me and were very helpful when deciding on a selection. This location has my vote for all 5-stars because of not only their AWESOME donuts that never fails but their customer service. p.s. After giving my guys at the office the donut boxes, which none of them have ever heard of such deliciousness, they, too will now be visiting your location. Thanks for listening to my concern and I look forward to the next visit. read more

Honestly the best donuts I've ever had. How are they so warm, soft, and delicious?? As other reviews have noted, it can take a while if you order in person so highly recommend ordering ahead of time and picking up. Haven't had any issues with it and the order has always been exact. There are endless options and flavor combinations, too! TLDR: I'd rather not get donuts than go anywhere besides Duck Donut! read more

Love love love these donuts. Found myself here on a Saturday morning and the line was minimal. Lots of parking in the strip mall. Service was okay. The donuts are remarkable. You can mix and match flavors or go with some seasonal recommendations. Either way you are leaving with a solid donut or two. read more

OH MY DAAAMMMNNN!!! These things should be a homeland security breach --on your waistline!! Amazing! Seriously, these donuts are the most delicious bite you will ever taste in a donut. Soft cake center with the most enticing icings and toppings. I'll definitely be back. Vicki read more

The little one says I have to give them 5 stars because their s are out of this world. I tend to agree with her. The place was so clean. The people were polite and the were as fresh as possible. So why not to give them 5. I totally recommend this store. read more

One star, because if I could give half a star I would. Literally, I was there for 50 minutes. Ealier today, I was doordashing and the order had already been placed 20 minutes before I got there. When I went to ask for the order, the lady that helped me said they hadn't made it yet & that it was being made, so I took a seat and waited. After about 10-15 minutes, I went up to ask another associate for an update on the order; while I was there, I noticed somebody was being trained and they were struggling to make someone else's order. After I noticed, they came up to me and said they were still working on it, I asked "how long for my order?" And they said "we're very busy right now & we're trying. Please give us 5 more minutes." I waited about 10 more minutes and saw them slowly give other people their orders since the store was already full when I got there. I went up again to ask for another update and I was told the order was being made but there was no other update to my order. The person being trained said "they're making it now." I felt very upset because I was told it was already being made and I was on a timer since I was doordashing. The senior employee told me that it would be ready in another 5 minutes. By then, I was very impatient and ready to leave but I was waiting for the food because of the doordash order. It eventually came out. At the end of it all, at least the associate told me to "have a good day" ... yeah ok read more

Very sweet and a warm donut doesn't stand up to heavy frosting but will probably try powder next time.

I love their donuts and the quirky combinations that are done. Quite delicious of course in moderation since they are cake donuts. I always recommend to my friends from out of state visiting the area. read more

My first memory of trying duck donuts was at the OBX, NC. Such great memories we left with. So, when we moved here to Alexandria, of course I was excited to relive the ora of soft, warm, donuts in my mouth. I should've took a picture...these donuts was sloppy and the box was full off glops of hard thick glazes. It just didn't look right. The friendliness of the staff lacked BIG time. When I asked if they had anymore order forms to fill out, they looked at me like I was crazy. BTW, they didn't have any at all. And if you are like me, I have to try more than 12 different types---so kinda hard to just spit out what you want opposed to filling out a form. I'll leave my fond memories with the outer banks location and just leave this one out. read more

Incredible and fresh donuts! The donuts are made fresh to order and still warm when I got home! They have a wide range of toppings you can choose from. The consistency of the texture is fluffy and crumbles when you take a bite. My favorites include the maple bacon, strawberry frosted, and Oreo with chocolate drizzle. I've been to multiple duck donuts all over and the donuts here never disappoint! read more

Boardwalk (glazed, Oreo sprinkles, and powdered sugar) was great! We got the donuts fresh, right off the fryer, so they were warm and soft! Decent prices ($1.43 per donut, including tax), good service, and neat experience of seeing the creation of donuts in front of your eyes. read more

Today was the first time I visited Duck Donuts. My daughter and my husband loved it. They got the Oreo one. I tasted a piece of my husband's and I wasn't impressed, but not disgusted. Overall, it's a good donut shop. read more

Seriously the taste was horrible for every single donut we picked. The place is dirty like they don't care cleaning the counter were they drop your ready order. A customer did complain about how dirty his box was when carrying it. Ours was too. So disappointing from flavor to everything else. also, think the oil they are using is old. Every donut had that weird taste you can tell the quality and flavor are missing. read more

Oh my gosh this place is incredible!!! Love that you can customize and switch up the toppings, glaze, etc and that they are fresh made to order. Always so delicious! read more

This place is amazing. The different donut combinations are awesome. The customer service was great too. I love the enthusiasm the employees have, while making the donuts. I highly recommend trying this place out. The maple bacon donut is addictive. read more

When it comes to donuts, it doesn't take much to please me. I loveeeee Duck Donuts! My sister would bring over a dozen when she came to visit from PA and I was in loveeee! I was happy to find one in Alexandria while visiting and had to a get a couple to bring home! They had all different varieties, including selection of seasonal ones. It was cool to see them make it on the spot. My boyfriend who isn't a sweets person even had one and thought it was good! I wish they open one near me soon! read more

This review is strictly for donuts and the functioning of the store, as I have never tried the breakfast foods *but will update this review once I have! This was my first time visiting this particular Duck Donuts location, but I have been to another location in Arlington a few times. I appreciate how much bigger and much more room this location has. My favorite part about this chain is that the donuts are always hot and fresh, and never stale (like DD at the end of the day ...). The donuts do tend to be on the smaller side, and you can really eat them in about 3-4 bites. However, they are at a great price point and I'd suggest making your own and getting a few each time! read more

Where can I start..I LOVE this place glad I found this gem. The donuts are always hot and prepared fresh to order. I have tried several different flavors and they are all good! Friendly staff for the most part and clean and great smelling place. I go here quite frequently now. You can tell these donuts are real and not full of preservatives like other donut places. read more

Usually the service is always great. However when my sister and I went tonight, it felt very uninviting. We were not greeted when we first walked in. The cashier didn't say a word the whole time as we were ordering, didn't let us know the price and after we paid the receipt was given to us in a rude way. It was very awkward as everything was in silence. On my way home, I looked in the box and noticed 2 of the holiday mint Oreo donuts were wrong and was just mint icing.. no oreo. I will try my best to avoid going there whenever that certain staff is working. read more

These are my absolute favorite donuts. I always opt for simple toppings like glaze, oreo crumbs, and cinnamon and sugar, because the warm buttery donut is my favorite part and I don't want to overwhelm it! I truly don't understand the bad reviews. For me these are 5-star donuts. read more

Dont know why I've been waiting 25 minutes (and counting) for TWO donuts. Theres two people working and a third just came in. No idea if machines are broken or whats going on but theres zero communication and two people that look clueless. I asked for a refund and the kid didn't even know how to do that. Won't come back again because they obviously need more training. Also, because the donuts didn't have time to cool a bit before they finally made mine, the glaze was pretty much non existent because it just melted off and was a mess. Extremely disappointed. read more

First experience at Duck Donuts, the staff were friendly and competent. Donuts are a bit overpriced, but undeniably high quality, and the creation process is completely transparent- all of the work is done in front of you. Would recommend to friends in the area looking to satisfy a breakfast sweet tooth. read more

Wait time was horrendous. Crew could care less. Register person didn't say one word to us or others she just yawned. Crew making donuts was constant and slow Bathrooms are dirty The crew that came in at 8am was sloppy and eating McDonalds. Didn't wash hands before coming on line. THE DONUTS BETTER BE GOOD THE SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE. read more

Not just a doughnut, but a sugar infused religious experience! I came in to see what all the hoopla was about. OMG!!! Now I see! These babies are served warm, gooey, and drenched in their molten toppings. The basis for these circles of decadent pleasure are a soft, vanilla flavored cake doughnut, remisent of Funnel Cake. They're simply to die for. The person who started this company should get the Congressional Medal of Desert! What a yummy treat! read more

They have the best donuts & they make them so warm and delicious. They had my order ready under 5 mins. They never disappoint.

The strawberry with sprinkles donuts is the best ! They make it so warm and delicious and never disappoints.

Unfortunately going to change my review to two stars now based on the poor and rude customer service. Never a hello or greeting. Awful and poor service. The donuts are what save this place from a 1 read more

No joke, every bit as good as I had heard they were. Ordering was kinda confusing and there were others in line behind me so I just randomly picked 12!of the preconfigured selections. Every one was just as good as the other so basically you can't go wrong with what ever you pick. Free samples were available while I waited for my order so that was nice. Drinks were a bit pricey at $13 for a couple of juices, milk and coffee but donuts were very reasonably priced. read more

So this is totally a review with my little ones input! Let's just say they are on donut cloud 9!!! Lol!!! From picking your own toppings (unlimited) and drizzle this is the go to spot for building your own donut!!!! From what I tasted the donuts were super fresh and warm!!! I can see why any donut lover would frequent this spot. Customer service was great and everything was explained before we ordered. I'm sure the kids will have us back very soon!!! read more

On vacation and was looking for a quick stop for food. Saw this on yelp and had to try it. The only donuts around where I live is Dunkin' Donuts so having customized donuts is unique for me. They make the donuts from scratch right in front of you, starting with the batter. Then they fry it. Finally you choose what flavor you want. I had maple bacon and an Oreo with vanilla cream. They give you the donuts still hot and we ate them immediately. Best tasting donuts I've had. Long Island needs a place like this. I highly recommend trying duck donuts. read more

Will never go to this store again. RUDE workers who wouldn't even speak to us - even when they forgot to fill our order. Not only was the drink order wrong, the donuts were crumbling, the glaze was more on the bottom of the box instead of the donuts and there were barely any toppings. And the preparation area was a mess! Have gone to this store for years but not anymore. Not worth the time or money. read more

Duck Donuts is a very unique place making the best donuts. There are so many options with limitless combinations to choose from. Each time I've visited, the staff have been very friendly and patient. The prices are reasonable and the donuts are seriously worth it. If you've never been, this is absolutely a must-try! read more
