Maybe a little dry but overall great donut!! Would definitely come earlier to get more flavors. But overall would definitely try!!

Soft, perfect texture, not stale for a second, and every flavor I've tried has been straight up delicious. Some of the people who work there could be a tad more polite but overall they are nice. The donuts are so good that they could call me names and I'd still come back! kidding but for real these are GAME CHANGING DONUTS!!! Also, huge bonus: they serve solid coffee from Tandem, so you're not stuck with mediocre coffee to go with a great donut. Everything I've had from here hits -- donuts, coffee, the whole vibe. If you're in Portland, this spot is 100% worth it.

Truly some of the best in town. The staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the donuts are consistently fresh and delicious. This week, I called literally 20 minutes before closing to place an order and they couldn't have been more gracious. And please never get rid of the 25 mini donut party box. Being able to choose any five flavors is a huge reason we keep coming back. We love you, Eighty 8!

I also got an iced vanilla latte - thoroughly enjoyed the latte! Four adults and a toddler sampled a bunch of donuts - sounds like the start of a terrible joke...These are my notes on all of the donuts and not a consensus from the group, in no particular order. Woopie pie: 4 stars - good flavor and texture, nice way to begin this sampling experience. Bacon cheddar fried donut: 5 stars - delicious, amazing flavor, served hot, good distribution of fillings; would gladly have this again! Margarita: 3 stars - definitely taste the salt and lime, little bit of tequila as well; glad I experienced this, not something I'll go back for. Key lime holy cannoli: 5 stars - love the texture of the donut, light and fluffy, good lime flavor and enjoyed the cannoli cream. Creme brulee: 3 stars - good flavor, the crystallized chunks of sugar were a nice touch; I had high hopes, and it was alright but not life changing - that's on me. Maple: 3 stars - typical maple donut, not overwhelming with flavor but definitely knew it was maple. Maple bacon: 4 stars - lots of bacon, almost balanced by the maple. Blueberry lemon: 5 stars - really great lemon flavor to the glaze, blueberry flavor comes through the donut nicely; looking forward to having this again! Vanilla holy cannoli: 5 stars - again, love the texture of the donut, classic flavor with the cannoli cream; I would gladly eat a whole one of these! Chocolate sea salt: 3 stars - good chocolate flavor, didn't get much of the sea salt coming through. Pomegranate: 4 stars - very sweet, good amount of pomegranate flavor; could not eat a whole one as it would be too sweet for me. Honey lavender: 5 stars - mmm, honey and lavender partnered nicely, sweet but not obnoxiously so, loved how well the lavender flavor came through; I very much so enjoy botanicals in sweet treats and lattes. Toasted coconut: 5 stars - deliciously sweet coconut taste, nostalgic flavor of something my grandma use to make, I really enjoyed it! Such a fun way to bond with friends and spend a relaxing morning on vacation! Would gladly get donuts here again, and now that i know my favorites, I can be more intentional with my order next time

Not overly sweet donut, but the different glazes can be. Such a unique flavor that's is delicious. We ordered 4 donuts (dark chocolate sea salt, lemon, Whoopie pie, coffee brandy) and an Americano and a coffee. The drinks were good. The donuts - Wowzer! Wanted to try the blueberry one too but sold out. My favorite was the chocolate... hubbys was coffee brandy one. They do have some merch to select as well and they have their whole bean coffee available. The service was great. You will pay for these gems of deliciousness - like $4+ a donut. Doesn't matter - just order them! So good.

They are located off of 11 in limerick, Maine, right beside the boat launch for Sokokis Lake, across from Mill Pizza. It's a small cafe, that serves donuts and coffee. The prices are actually very good. I paid 5.95 for a half dozen homemade donuts. I got 2 maple frosted, an apple crunch, a chocolate crunch, a glazed, a cinnamon powdered sugar. The lady at the counter was very polite, efficient and kind. I'm sure she could tell I had recently been crying, after loosing my 14 year old dog. She was just so kind, and I won't forget it. The selection of donuts were out of this world, and I can wait to get some more ! They had a large selection, of which most were sold out, but she did say if there was any frosted ones I was interested in, she could throw it together real quick. That is very thoughtful and sweet. If you've never been to this place, go check them out, their homemade donuts are to die for !

Limerick, was our pick and Dough Boys Donuts was on our list. When we walked in to my surprise a cute shop with the best customer service! I was on a mission for a lemon filled donut! I headed to pick out my donuts and they only had one lemon filled. I asked for that one and then eyed a chocolate coconut donut. I was very happy. As I was pouring my coffee I said I wished you had more lemon donuts. The baker in the back heard me and said I can make more. Really?! How many do you want? I have never had this kind of customer service ever! So while he was making our lemon donuts we sat by the lake and enjoyed our coffee and delicious donuts! As promised we went back in the shop and on the counter were my donuts all boxed and ready to go home. But wait I saw there were more lemon donuts in the case. Ahh....could we start another box? Lol We will definitely be back for more delicious donuts.

We got some delicious lattes and my daughter hit them up for a hot chocolate. They only have four metal bar height chairs to sit on, but we did and boy did we enjoy our delicious donuts. Each one was very unique from the yeast, cake and cruller varieties with delicious glazes or toppings to add more flavor and texture. You simply have to stop by and try this place when in town. Their lineup of breakfast Sammie's look spectacular also... and happy to see they offer pork roll as an option - an homage to hometown Philly!

The interior of the donut shop is stylish and welcoming, and I saw a few bar seats if you want to stay to eat. There were plenty of flavors; we ended up trying the Portland Fog (i.e. lavender + earl grey), maple cruller, and chocolate & sea salt cruller. Service at the counter was quick. The donuts were all tasty! I actually liked the Portland Fog donut texture better than the crullers, which were nice and airy but a bit soggy/limp for me. The Portland Fog was especially delicious -- I love a lavender + earl grey combo -- though I wish it was 10% lighter on the lavender flavor. The chocolate & sea salt flavor combo was also delicious (though you can never go wrong with that flavor pairing). I will flag for those with dietary restrictions that there are unfortunately no vegan or vegetarian donuts here, since they fry all their donuts in lard. Overall, a pleasant experience. I'm looking forward to trying more flavors!

I would normally give this place a 4 star but only because it doesn't have many food options to…read moresupport my diet (dairy/meat free), HOWEVER, their vibe and offerings rock and they have cultivated such a great offering for the community. It's one of the most vibrant spots in the city I have found. I've had their bagels before which are great! But they don't have any vegan cream cheese yet. Maybe someday. They do have Oat and almond milk options for coffees for only .50 additional charge, which is unheard of and greatly appreciated! They have smoothie bowls which I'm stoked to try when the weather is a little warmer. They have a chess board table and a little pac man arcade-type game. And a little crayon/board game section. Parking: street or out back. There's a walkway between the buildings to get to their main street entrance if you park out back.

Visiting from out of town, 8:00am Saturday: no line, full selection, friendly and chill vibes…read more These donuts have a slightly chewy, dense texture that is very pleasant and not quite like any other baked good I can think of. The flavor doesn't hit you immediately but develops as you chew. A novel donut. Lemon, vanilla, and blueberry were my favorites. The whoopie pie donut tastes just like a whoopie pie, if that's your thing. I was a little disappointed in the sweet potato ginger -- I don't think I could have identified the flavors in a blind tasting, too subtle. But still tasty. Definitely recommend this spot for a different kind of donut experience.

I've Seen Better Glaze…read more Family-owned chain of donut shops that started off in a home kitchen driven with a dream and some Maine potatoes, and has turned into one of Downtown Portland's biggest foodie destinations. Holy Donut opened their first Portland location back in 2012, and they now have five locations around the state, including this DT location which is probably their busiest. The Good: *Vegan & Gluten-free offerings--but they're not synonymous! Check the fine print or ask. *Coast-to-Coast shopping options, including vending machines (we saw some at PWM). *Online ordering available for pickup. Tbh this is probably the way to get them, as you can skip the line and go straight to the back at the pickup window and just get your stuff right quick. You're welcome. *Donuts are made daily from scratch and feature seasonal and limited flavors. The Meh: *You'll most likely have to pay for parking at this DT location. *You'll also most likely encounter a large line to order from, depending on the time of day. When we walked by earlier before lunch it was HUGE, but after lunch it was down to manageable ±10 people ifo of us, and it did move pretty quick, as well. I mean, it is just donuts ffs. It shouldn't take you more than a few minutes to decide. The Ugly: *Pricing is a bit obscene at ±$5/ea, but it's to be expected in a extremely popular area full of tourists and cruises. *Take this with a grain of salt, as I'm very particular about donuts in general, but I found them to be very heavy and just OK. Also, the flavors could've been punchier, as I found the taste a little too muted for my liking. Conclusion: Definitely not worth a long wait or the price imo, but if you're in the area, the line is short, and you have $5 burning a hole in your pocket then I say go for it. Because, evidently, I'm in the minority judging by the popularity and reviews. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But after visiting the…read morePortland location years ago, I was excited to visit the Arundel location conveniently located off Route 1. When you arrive, you can park in front of the teal buildings or drive up further to the parking in front of the walk-up window that's a bit further back. I arrived around 10:30 am on a Sunday and they were already sold out of the most popular flavors. There are a few patio tables to enjoy your donuts and coffee or you can take them to go. Looking for an instagrammable moment? There are two sets of wings at different heights and sizes where you can pose for a photo. I find the potato donuts pretty filling, so I typically only get one for myself or pick up an assortment if I'm getting them for others. There are vegan options available too.

I had never tried a potato donut before, so I was curious to see what it was like. Unfortunately, this ended up being the second worst donut I have ever had, and I've tried a lot of different donut shops. The lady at the shop was very kind and explained which donuts were which. I decided to try the most popular options: the Sea Salt and Blueberry Lemon donuts. Sadly, the Sea Salt donut was terrible! The Blueberry Lemon one wasn't as bad, but both ended up in the garbage. My stepmom is usually against throwing away food and doesn't have much of a sense of smell, so she doesn't find many things inedible. However, even she ended up throwing her donut away, which says a lot. I would not recommend these donuts.
