Frank's is your classic donut shop where you can get perfect nostalgic donuts. This is a family affair with the owner, operator, and head baker being Frank's mother. Other members of the family work at the business as well. The service here was quick and friendly. The prices are affordable and they always have fresh donut shop coffee brewing. They have all of the classic donuts - glazed, cake, apple fritters, chocolate/maple frosted, and many more. They even have pastries to choose from. I think one of the great things about Frank's is that they have a drive through! read more

Good donut holes and yummy maple donut. The holes were a little dry, but could be because I came later in the day. Yummy maple and fluffy donut! read more

Best donuts! An exceptional array of glazed and cake donuts plus fritters. After a UK football game we took home a dozen glazed yeasted and feasted! Service is quick and there's a drive through. It is clean and smells amazing! If you're in Lexington, you must have a donut or two at Frank's. read more

I used to go to the location in Georgetown often ane the one in Lexington is just as good! Good spot for a donut stop.

Hot and fluffy goodness. Best plain glazed donut in Lexington. Best prices in Lexington. They have plenty of pastry/donut options and I actually enjoy their coffee. I'd put them toe to toe against any donut maker in Lex. Frank's would win and be cheaper. read more

Great service. Great selection. GREAT prices. Even better donuts!! This is one of my husband and I's fav donut places in town. We got original glaze, donut holes, strawberry with sprinkles and the cake donut. They all were very good but the cake donut was probably my favorite!! read more

I had a haircut appointment nearby and decided to make a donut run. First time at this location, but not the first time for Frank's donuts. I purchased a jelly, a maple, and a long cinnamon twisty donut. A childhood favorite growing up, I always seek to find that taste again in jelly donuts. Frank's was good, with a just tart enough rasberry filling. The other two are in the freezer awaiting a donut kind of morning. 70 read more

Great donuts. The young girl helping I assume her mother, has a very rude demeanor and cannot understand one word of English. Not one smile or a thank you from this location. Too many other donut shops that are just as good or better for such rude bebehavior. read more

The service is 5 stars!!! The lady working the counter was the nicest ever and some of the best customer service I've had. The shop is clean. The donuts are great! They had solid pricing and great choices. read more

delicious donuts, cheap price, and fast drive-through! definitely come spend your money here instead of dunkin. They deserve it.

At this point I would consider myself a true donut connoisseur and I approve of these donuts they are not only massive but a supreme deal for your money. You cannot go wrong with a plain glazed or chocolate those are the most raved about. I will need to test out their cake donuts I'm slowly but surely being converted to a yeast only donut snob as fresh cake donuts are difficult to achieve maybe having to do with the size and ingredients not sure. Also they have a drive thru so you already know how much easier it is to choose this over the competitors. read more

We were in Lexington briefly and I wanted to try some local donuts. This looked like the spot. All the yeast donuts were good and would order them again. We got a variety. The service was fast and the place was clean. read more

Superb donuts! Glazed donuts stay fresh Service drive thru is efficient Beside glazed doughs were cinnamon sugar which were great read more

This is our go to place for "fluffy" donuts (as compared to dense or cake). I've never had an issue with communication with any of the employees, and they have always been very kind. read more

Honestly, I did not care for these donuts. They just weren't cakey enough to be cake donuts. I do prefer a yeast donut that melts in your mouth. So maybe I am not a good judge. Service was mediocre at best. Too pricey as well. Donuts are very particular for the person though. read more

I love the blueberry muffins but half the time i get there at 8 am they are out of them. The speaker in the drive-thru is horrible. please fix these things and you will be good. read more

I've been on a Lexington Donut tour and visited Franks Donuts this weekend after hearing a lot of buzz about it. I tried the chocolate cream filled long john, chocolate twist, and blueberry cake donut. Being that chocolate filled long johns are one of my favorite donuts, this one unfortunately was not for me. I've never had a cream filled donut with the type of cream that they use, which is almost like a slightly thicker whipped cream. The chocolate twist was a pretty good basic donut but didn't blow me a way. However, the blueberry cake donut, which is probably my favorite kind, was so delicious. The sugary edges were so crispy, and the flavor was great. As for prices, Franks is probably on the less expensive side and seemed very reasonable. read more

I have followed Frank's Donuts ever since I can remember. I use to visit the one in Winchester, KY. When this one popped up on Third Street in Lexington, I was so excited. This is my go to donut shop. If you have favorite items, I suggest you get there pretty early in the morning. You know what they say...The early bird gets the best donuts. LOL! The staff is always friendly and kind. Their drive thru line moves really quickly since all of their delicious donuts take so long to prepare. I can't get enough of their Bear Claws and Blueberry Donuts. The Bear Claws sell out really fast. I am told that they do however freeze well if you wanna stock up next time you get there and they have a good supply of them. These donuts are so soft and fluffy. I can't get enough of them. Other favorites are the strawberry croissant and their apple fritter. Next time you are near Third Street and wanting to get some sweet treat. Stop on by here. You will not regret this ever. YUM read more

In my top 5 for best donuts. The apple fritters are amazing! Service was great, got us in and out quickly.

This morning I found myself in the neighborhood and thought I'd give Frank's a try for our Sunday morning treats. Excellent donuts - crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside - and for real - they fill the long johns after you order them! Also - the prices are great! read more

I went for a walk and decided to stop on the way back home . I've never had a donut from here so it was the perfect opportunity to stop. They do have their own parking lot as well as a drive through window. They do not have a public restroom. There are a couple of tables to sit at it you choose to stay . They also have a cold case with drinks like milk and such. The store itself was clean and well lit, the display cases were clean and crumb free. They don't have a huge selection but what I saw looked really good. I ended up with the bear claw for 1.27 and that included tax. I have to say you definitely get your money's worth with the bear claw, I took mine home to share . I really liked it even half of one was more then enough, The girls at the counter are more then friendly enough. If you plan on using a debit or credit card beware that you have to spend 3.00 or more in order to pay for your purchase. read more

The first time I had Frank's donuts was 13 years ago working in Georgetown, Ky. I am from Lexington and was not familiar with the company but afeet one bite, I was hooked!! I was so excited when they came to Lexington and have been going frequently;) Thank you Frank's Donuts for making this woman very happy read more

Delicious donuts with family friend service. Opens at 4:30AM but came at 5. The donuts were just starting to come out so if you gotta go into work early (like me), make sure you time it right! There's a wide variety (probably more once the day picks up) and the donuts are made fresh in house. The cake donuts particularly have a nice density to it without being dry at all. And the glazed donuts are money too The donuts are about 65 cents each and about a $1 for the specialty ones like the filled jelly ones so honestly the value is tremendous. 100% recommend this place and I'll be coming here often for my morning donut and coffee~ read more

Frank's Donuts - box of assorted donuts - Donuts Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I'm never not craving a donut from here! Everything is delicious and the prices are amazing!

My favorite donuts by far! Location is convenient and well worth the drive. We were thrilled when they came to Lexington KY

The best donuts!!!! Always a perfect stop for a treat. And the drive thru makes it so convenient!!

I am not sure why any donut store in the world would only sell their cake donuts un-iced, but this is that spot. Their cake donuts are just plain. No icing. (What???) BOO. That being said, their cinnamon rolls and apples fritters are delicious. But they really have a pretty small assortment of donuts - it is strange considering how huge the building is. They also have drive-through which surprisingly is super difficult to use. The volume is so low and/or the staff don't speak loud enough for you to hear them through the speaker system. Unless you are just ordering whatever random dozen they want to put together and you aren't picky about what you get, then you probably need to head inside to see what is available. I'm pretty bummed this place doesn't have a better selection of donuts - it is right on my way to work and would be SO easy. But now that I have tried to order here a couple times and not been able to get what I wanted (even first thing in the morning), I think I am over it. Too bad. read more

Frank's Donuts will fill that void in your heart that was left behind when you couldn't find that special rock you picked up as a three year old. (Hint: your parents threw it away) And more than fill that emotional void, it will also fill your bloodstream with sweet, sweet goodness that will empower you to take on that early morning conference meeting with Wesley from Accounting who loves to find a way to interject his favorite "Ka-ching!" catchphrase every other minute. You will find the confidence to say, "Shut up, Wesley" with authority and the meeting will come to a complete halt with all participants staring at you in stunned silence. Jack from IT stands up and starts to slow clap. It's awkward at first, but one by one, others stand and join in. The movement spreads through the entire office as you are escorted out because Wesley is the owner's son and you just lost your job, but you don't care. You finally did it. You peaked in your adult life and it was such a sweet victory. Not as sweet as a Frank's donut, but close. read more

Online it says they open at 4:30 but every time I go around 6 they never have donuts ready. I place my order and I'm told, we're out or don't have that. Maybe instead of making twists donuts or etc they can spend time getting the regular donuts out. One time I went and passed 2 women workers in the front of the store. They had me just sitting at the drive thru no one said anything. I finally called inside and I was told "we're closed" Someone could've at least came on the mic to say that. Or the two workers in the front. read more

Excellent southern doughnuts, fried and flavorful! The Apple fritters are the best I've had in years.

I didn't think anyone can make better Glazed donuts than Spaulding.... boy, was I wrong!!!!! They were soft, light, melted in your mouth like cotton candy. 100% will go back tomorrow. read more

Franks is a hidden gem. Thes are by far the best donuts I've ever had... fresh, light, airy and delicious. The service is amazing and the low prices are unbelievable. read more

We have been loving Frank's for years and we're seriously beyond excited when they opened the Lexington store, but even with traffic at times it could take the time time to get to the Georgetown location lol read more

I love these Donuts. I don't live in the Lexington area so when I am here I always call ahead and order 2 dozen glazed donuts. today I called and they simply refused to make them! what kind of business does this. they don't even close for another 11/2 hours! this is a terrible way to run a business since Covind started customer service has just gone out the window! read more

Can I just say these are the best donuts Hands Down!!! The workers are so nice and very helpful the prices are the best.

The donuts are delish, the staff are super kind, and the location is so convenient. Kudos!
