Duck Donuts - Chocolate Covered Bacon donut - Donuts Near Me - Duck, North Carolina

Friendly staff that's passionate about their shop! We tried the new chocolate version and they are excellent. I recommend chocolate donut with mint and Oreos. We were the first customers of the day, so our wait was longer than expected. They threw in a few extras to make up for it. read more

I finally made it to Duck Donuts. It's located in the Osprey Landing shopping area. Parking may be a little difficult. We went on a Monday afternoon in the off season so we had no problem finding a spot. You order your donut on the left side and then you walk across and pick it up. We ate our hot donut outside in between the store on a wooden picnic table. The donut is more like a cake. It was hot and melted in my mouth. It was a little difficult for it to stay on my fork. It was a nice dessert after my lunch that day. read more

Duck Donuts - Used the online ordering. Worked out perfectly. No wait time and got exactly what my family wanted. Our order was warm and fresh! - Donuts Near Me - Duck, North Carolina

Duck Doughnuts were delicious It was worth the trip. I loved the place. Making my doughnuts my way was a cool idea. I love the souvenir shop they have. Thought it could be bigger in variety but it was nice. The coffee is good. I'd have a Cool Ducky mug for the coffee, and large cup like morning travelers needThat would of satisfied my collectors urges no matter the cost. But I settled for a rubber ducky keep sake. My group made a special trip. Check the times they are open. And Enjoy ENJOY those Tasty Duck Doughnuts. read more

This is a must when we are in the Outer Banks! Hot, Fresh, and delicious! You want to get there early or be ready to wait (made to order). I think the duck location is by far the best experience-wise. You make super custom orders or just go with their daily special or the quacky dozen. read more

These donuts are incredible! 6th year getting them during my visit to the Outerbanks and they never disappoint!

Very tasty and a lot of variety. They have special seasonal flavors and you can create your own.

Just meh. Cheap quality doughnuts with nothing good about them. Overpriced and soggy. Wouldn't recommend.

The best! The legend! The goat! Seriously just get the donuts you can't go wrong with any of them!

Bad, uninterested staff, greasy and soggy dunut. But the coffee was goid.

Was greatly looking forward to trying Duck Donuts before leaving our vacation. We ordered 6 donuts; upon opening the box 3 of them were incorrect. We told an employee and showed them what we ordered, they did make us new ones, but 2 of the donuts were still incorrect. Overall, donuts were good but just disappointed it wasn't what we ordered. read more

Never not hitting up Duck Donuts the morning after we arrive. Which will be tomorrow morning 8/16/20. Unfortunately the novelty has worn off the past couple of years being they are opening in more and more places along the northeast. Still really good donuts and some cute merch!! Keep up the good work! Been "down" (no pun intended) since day one! read more

Stopped by on a Tuesday morning about 8:30 in first week of June. So while the area isnt super busy yet this place was quite active for the hour. They have parking but it fills up quick. So they are located on a little boardwalk right on the sound with a bunch of other shops and its a little confusing so look for the signs hanging from the ceiling. The shop is actually housed in two different buildings. As you walk up from the parking lot on your left side is the shop with merch, coffee and cash registers. You walk in, use the paper order forms and take the paper to the register to order. Then you leave this building and go to the one across the deck where they will prepare your donuts and call your number. They have a few tables scattered about so we were able to get a great view to enjoy our fried dough. They make made to order hot and fresh cake style donuts and cover them in toppings. I like their cinnamon sugar donut. Its delicious. I also really like their chocolate covered and topped with sprinkles. I think what makes these so good is their hot freshness because i generally prefer yeast donuts. Also the squirrels here have no qualms about eating donuts right from your hand so watch out! read more

Duck Donuts - Great place to share a donut with a new friend! - Donuts Near Me - Duck, North Carolina

It is an annual tradition to come to duck donuts on our family vacation. Each bite is pure happiness. I crave the maple bacon donut all year. If you are in the area, you must make this stop. Consistent quality and friendly staff. read more

Awesome homemade donuts. Order from a paper system, so many different kinds of donuts to choose from. Always made to order. So good!

Can only say great things about this establishment and also the customer service. We traveled from Virginia Beach (and Iowa) just to get Duck Donuts from Duck. We arrived at 1:01, they close at 1:00.. The nicest man (had to be owner or management) who was locking the doors apologized but stated they were closed, we thanked him and started to walk away... He called us back and gave us a free dozen donuts (because register was closed). Needless to say we sat outside and enjoyed the best donuts ever! Highly recommend this place but be sure to get there before 1:00 pm! Five out of five for sure! read more

Duck Donuts - Dozen for 8 people. WOW - Donuts Near Me - Duck, North Carolina

Nothing like an original Duck Donut on our annual trip to Duck! Always friendly, and always good! The wait is long, but why wouldn't it be for a great donut?! read more

Novel flavors but not particularly delicious. I'd prefer a Krispy Kreme any day. Or Astro.

OMG!!! I just took one bite of the Duck Donut powdered sugar donut - It is warm, soft and delicious. To me, it was reminiscent of an Italian Zeppole from the San Gennaro feast in NYC. This little donut shop has a lot of foot traffic and cranks out made to order donuts. In one store, you place your order at a counter and pay; then across to another store, you can watch the gal make your donuts and pick up your order. To make it more special, we enjoyed our freshly made donuts outside on the deck with coffee and beautiful water views. read more

We have gone here a couple times when on vacation. these are some of the best donuts around. would highly recommend.

Deliciously fresh and made exactly to order. We used the online ordering option and got half a dozen which were devoured very quickly. Highly recommended if you're in the area and perhaps even if you have to make a bit of a drive to get to one of their locations in the Outer Banks. Wish they stayed open later! read more

Love, love, love!!!!!!!! It's so awesome how they let you choose exactly how you want your donut. The glaze, toppings, frosting, etc. Employees are amazing and as for the donuts... ahhhhhhh!!!!!! I absolutely love them, 100% recommend. If you're visiting NC, this should definitely be on your bucket list!! (btw the -Dad Box- Dozen is my favorite) read more

The doughnuts are very pricey. Although good, they were kind of cakey, which is not my preference for doughnuts. People line up for them but it is mainly the tourist. read more

Gave my wife a free birthday donut! We ordered a surprise dozen and really enjoyed it, although as a father of a big family trying to get a bite it felt like I was competing with a flock of seagulls. Overall a great experience! Only downside is coffee is mediocre... read more

Great fresh donuts at a great price. Must get there early to beat the crowd but if you don't it's worth the wait. Great customer service. Nice clean place. read more

Fast service, unique donut selection (you can even build your own flavors), good drip coffee, and reasonable prices. The donuts were fresh and delicious! My fave that I tried was coffee cake. Will definitely return next time I'm in outer banks! read more

The donuts are delicious and the breakfast sandwiches are amazing! Went there two times on our trip and the first time was great, second time, not so much. The girl who was in charge of the breakfast sandwiches was too busy talking to her friends that had come in so she didn't realize she had a sandwiches to make so it ended up taking us over 20 minutes to get two breakfast sandwiches. It was very frustrating especially cause she wasn't bothered at all by the fact that we had been waiting so long while she was visiting. Overall I would definitely go back but hopefully the service is better! read more

So we went to the original Duck Donuts in the outer banks of NC. It was a cool experience. First, the set up of ordering on one side of the building and getting your order on the other side is efficient. This is especially cool because, due to how busy they were, this could have become a cluster. However, it worked out well. Though Duck is not my absolute favorite donuts, they are tasty. Their customization options and the fact that they are always fresh and warm add to the awesomeness of their product. No matter your preference, you can design a donut for you at Duck. It's like picking out an engagement ring but instead of love, it's a commitment to eating your feelings. If you like Duck donuts and you find yourself on the beaches of the outer banks, swing by. It is a good experience. read more

These are made to order, which makes them warm and fresh. However they are a bit small, cake donuts, not raised, and underwhelming. Over rated. read more

AMAZING!!! Best donuts in Duck!! Loved the lemon coconut!! Hot, tasty!! Went there more than once in the week we were there!

Seriously the best donuts I've ever had. My family has come to OBX for 23 years, and we get them every time! Half of the experience is watching your donuts being made after you order. First, you order the amount your heart desires (and id always recommend ordering MORE than you THINK you'll want... They are too delicious). After paying, you walk to the building on the other side to watch your donuts being made and pick them up. You watch the machine plop fresh donut batter into the fryer, where it fries them to perfection! After, you watch as your favorite flavors are created... Chocolate, glazed, powdered, vanilla, and so many more! I suggest giving into temptation and eating at least one of these fresh beauties right away! Best when hot. I promise once you give these donuts a try, you'll be back! read more

In my continuing search for a decent morning cup of joe in the town of Duck, I made a beeline to Duck Donuts after asking a local passer-by for advice. Score!...One cup of organic, dark roast coffee to go. It was just what I wanted, apart from it being a bit thin. Of course I couldn't leave without a donut too! I asked for one cinnamon-sugar donut. "Just one?" the proprietress asked in amazement. (I guess they are used to people buying in bulk.) "Please", I responded. They pulled a warm, fresh donut from the machine output tray, glazed it, and sprinkled it with cinnamon sugar while I watched. Nice! Too bad they put it in a clamshell, styrofoam container when I wasn't looking...WTF? Ever heard of a napkin? A paper bag, perhaps? The warm donut was chewy, unique and excellent. A few hours later I walked by and saw the line was out the door and flowing down the front steps. Yikes! Guess I was lucky to get there so early. Starting point at 3 stars: +1 for good coffee +1 for great donuts -1 for unnecessary styrofoam (waste, waste, waste) P.S. Though the address is correct, the Yelp map shows it about 2 miles north of the actual location; I don't know why. read more

French Toast Donut is the BEST! Pick your donut, decoration, and amount. Mix & Match. Great for gifts and morning office surprises. Love this gem! It's what's for dessert! read more

I confess I was skeptical. I don't really care for 'cake style' donuts. These however are more like funnel cakes. Soft and warm inside with a few crispy edge bits here and there. My husband and i ordered a half dozen and walked around the corner to enjoy the nice sound view while we feasted. We devoured them in about 6 minutes. It would have taken less if we weren't worried about the dangers of powdered sugar inhalation. We promptly added this destination to our 'must do" while in OBX list. read more

Sometimes there is a dissenting opinion. We have purchased and eaten Duck Donuts twice in the past three weeks, once in Kill Devil Hills and once at the store in Duck. They are somewhat different from typical cake donuts. They are definitely served warm and fresh, but that does not seem to be an advantage. We purchased three naked donuts this morning and each ate one while warm. These things are stick-to-your-teeth greasy goo. Neither of us liked the texture. The one that was eaten cold 5 hours later was a little better, still not great and still sticks to your teeth, just not as bad. If you get them warm and dipped in any of the icings, just being within 100 yards could induce diabetes. The icing is crazily overdone making them so sweet as to be sickening. Again, they are a little better eaten cold. I know these things are popular. We found them gooey, exceedingly sweet (if iced) and very greasy. To be honest, more standard cake donuts at a place like Dunkin' Donuts do not suffer the same issues, at least not to this extent. In the Midwest, I occasionally will buy a donut at Casey's General store and they are considerably better. I know donuts are not health food. Nothing I eat is, but these things are off the chart in every way possible and not in a good way. Sorry, someone had to say it. read more

The best donuts around are found here! Hot and fresh and oh so tasty! Will definitely be returning for more!

A favorite for me here in the Triangle and I was happy to go to the original. Neat layout with a side to order on and a side to pick-up on. Great location right on the boardwalk as well. The donuts are imaginative and they are growing so they are clearly doing something right with the toppings, but the dough itself seems a little cheap to me. I don't know, maybe it's me. I still like the Donut Den in Nashville. That's the winner. read more
