    Cute little shop with tasty donuts and biscuits! Came here with my husband on a Friday around 7:45am and we appreciate that they are open earlier than most other spots! We got the maple donut, mochi donut, cheddar biscuit, and a cream filled donut. All of them were tasty!

    Stopped here for coffee and doughnut. It's a nice walk from where we were staying. For coffee, my husband got the special- White Mocha Cinnamon. It wasn't anything to rave about. To eat we got the Maple Longjohn and cinnamon doughnut. Then an egg, cheese and tomato pesto egg sandwich. Our favorite doughnuts by far, would definitely go back. Really liked the egg sandwich, it came on a croissant bun which was very flavorful. Our tummy's left happy here! It was nice to sit outside to enjoy our breakfast. The barista was very friendly. He was busy but never seemed flustered or overwhelmed.

    Boston Cream Bismark

    I got got by Instagram unfortunately. I came across a video of their Boston cream bismark and I thought "I've gotta have that" and went the very next day to grab one. I was left extremely disappointed. First was the size. This thing was tiny, smaller than a slice of bologna. 2nd was the fact that it was dry, which in most cases you can microwave for a few seconds and it breathes new life into it but just walking out the door eating it, dry. 3rd was the price, this little guy was $5. IMO totally not worth it. And finally, biggest issue....i bought 2.

    - hmmmmmm cronut! - I came here at 2:35pm on Friday, and the blinds were down and they were ready to close. The owner was busy talking to his employee, so he didn't greet me. The store was overall quite dark at that time, you can tell they are all ready to go home. Though the store didn't seem so welcoming, the donuts I got here were all delicious, especially the cronut that has a good combination of flakiness (bread part) and creaminess (cream part). I'd definitely be back to try other pastries here!

    The donuts were amazing and I would definitely go back for those. The biscuit with butter and jam was also huge and delicious. My partner didn't really think much of his HnH sandwich given the price ($16) and wished he'd gotten a biscuit. Very friendly service and more of a to go ambiance. They appear to be dog friendly for pick up and outdoor seating.

    Half and Half was awesome! I am so glad that I found this donut shop! I had the black and white flavor old fashioned donut as well as the La Canela flavor old fashioned donut. Both flavors were delicious. I am usually not a fan of an old fashioned donut, but these were different, and I am a fan! The donuts were fresh and had a delicious taste and were moist. It is a small shop with a very hipster type of vibe and my wife and I loved it. I definitely recommend half & half for delicious donuts!

    Excellent coffee but probably the best doughnuts I've ever had. Made It perfection. Highly recommend you swing by and try for yourself.

    Nestled in the heart of Capitol Hill, Half and Half is a small shop that astonishingly manages to sell below-average doughnuts at exorbitant prices. I've had several opportunities to try a variety of them, and came away disappointed each time. The latest pack I got included: Plain Old Fashioned (2/5) - Just fried, and sadly dry, dough with no topping at all. I thought this might be good in a purist sort of way, but... it's not. Don't bother. Pineapple Fritter (1.5/5) - Somehow actually had a decent amount of pineapple, but managed not to taste like pineapple at all. Or taste like anything besides sugar, for that matter. And the dough was pretty tough. Triple Dark Chocolate (4/5) - By far the best one, due to it being coated in a pretty decent chocolate coating. Glazed Donut (1/5) - One of the worst doughnuts I've ever had. I sometimes hear doughnuts described as "light and fluffy" -- well, this is the complete opposite. It felt like eating a loaf of white bread with some glaze on top. These 4 are around $17 total. Based on the premium pricing, you might be expecting premium quality in return, but don't be fooled. Instead, I'd recommend going to any nearby grocery store's bakery for better doughnuts at a fraction of the price.

    Amazing doughnuts and fresh made to order breakfast sandwiches and drinks. I ordered way to many doughnuts but I had to try them all! They were all delicious but my favorite was the classic old fashioned. The banana fosters doughnut was also a close second! My two toddler boys, husband, and I devoured our doughnuts before we started exploring the city. It was the perfect start to our day! Happy Eating!

    Great espresso, filled donuts and baristas! I bought a dozen bombas for my coworkers and they all asked where they were from because they wanted more!

    Amazing doughnut shop with a variety of different types of doughnuts and creative flavors! None of the donuts are too sweet and I love how many of the flavors have complexity. The flavors are not just sweet, they're either sweet and bitter, sweet and sour, or sweet and savory. My favorite items here are definitely the bombas. The size is perfect, not as big of a commitment as a regular filled donut but just enough to be satisfying. The donut is fluffy and tender and there is the perfect ratio of bread to filling. The best filling flavor is the bananas foster, amazing banana flavor complemented by the slightly bitter caramel notes. I also really enjoy the fritters here. They're fluffy and tender like the bombas but have a bit more chew and breadiness. I thought the pineapple fritter was super interesting because I've never seen a pineapple fritter before. The maple pecan fritter was sweet and had a light maple flavor which went really well with the nutty and slightly savory pecans. Overall, everything is pretty good here and I haven't tried anything I didn't like.

    I stopped in with my mom early morning on a Thursday after a gym class (it's all about balance) and they had plenty of selection with a line out the door! I'm not a huge donut person (usually opt for a scone or croissant instead), but OMG THESE WERE SO YUMMY!! We got a mounds old fashioned, la canela old fashioned, and a bananas foster bombas. The next day, we came back for an apple butter old fashioned and a bombas of every flavor for the plane! The donuts are such high quality, so fresh, and such delicious flavors (not artificial tasting at all)! The baker was so friendly and gave us some recommendations both times, and we'll definitely be back the next time we're in town! If your cup of coffee is looking for a sweet buddy, look no further!

    Half and Half Doughnut Co. is a good place to stop for some good, albeit overtly sweet, doughnuts and coffee. I thought it was a welcoming shop overall, just a little plain; but for a place like this, it kind of adds to the charm, you know? No frills, just fuel. The barista was friendly enough and made a very delicious mocha. I'm not sure if this is a place I'd seek out again, but I sure as hell wouldn't say no. That means something in my book!

    Nut allergy friendly! Vegan and nut free on everything. Amazing. I had to try it…read more I saw this cute spot on inKind after walking by it during several Seattle visits and finally decided to stop in after reading another review that mentioned that they are nut-free. Spoiler: Absolutely no regrets, I wish I had visited earlier! I ordered a six pack with a variety of their donuts and shared them with four friends, having a bit of each. I'm glad we did it this way because I don't think I could have finished some of these donuts solo. I also had a seasonal rose latte at half sweetness which was decent, but very wholesomely came with a little donut hole that was pretty good. I will say, they nailed all the flavors. If you like the flavor, probably a 4/5 donut overall. They just weren't always my cup of tea. So the scores here are for personal enjoyment more than anything - like I said, they're solid donuts. Sour Watermelon (2/5): Holy smokes, this one felt like it was punching your taste buds. It's almost confusing on how this is in a donut form. It's more like a sour patch kid. It's intense. I don't think I could solo one. Mango Tajin (3/5): Similar to the sour Watermelon, it's perplexing how this is a donut. It was a bit spicy and tangy, just as the flavor implied. Cookies & Cream (3.5/5): Get ready to get messy. It's crumbly. It's sweet. It's more like a normal donut. Matcha Strawberry (4.5/5): My favorite of the weird flavors of donuts. They really aced the matcha flavor and it's well balanced for a donut. Blueberry Fritter (2.5/5): This was pretty hyped up, but honestly I felt like the blueberry flavor was overpowered just by the sheer amount of sugar. Texture was good, it just felt so sweet. Overall, I'd definitely recommend for a fun experience. Share some different flavors! Paid via inKind with no issues.

    Mighty-O Donuts seems to be one of the few vegan donut shops that actually tries to make yeast…read moredonuts - most places are cake only. We decided to drop by after eating lunch in the area for a sweet treat afterwards, then ended up picking up a whole dozen... Some notes for a couple that I tried: Maple Bar ($4.99) - Hmm.. Not that fluffy or light. Instead or being airy, it's more dense and has a kind of springy chew. The glaze is sweet and gives off a heavy maple fragrance, an indication they use real maple syrup in the glaze. Maple bars from other places are usually disgustingly sweet with basically no maple flavor - this one is sweet but more well balanced. I think the texture is definitely different from a typical yeast donut. I wonder if it's just because it more difficult to make vegan yeast donuts vs cake donuts? It's a different type of yeast donut, but still very good. (4/5) Chocolate Peanut Butter ($4.45) - Good peanut butter flavor in both the topping and glaze. I think the donut base is also peanut butter but it could be contamination from the glaze. The base isn't very sweet and is kind of almost savory in flavor. The donut is dense but not crumbly and instead very moist. Not really crusty, so not too much textural difference. I think it's baked rather than fried. Still very sweet. (4/5) Devils Playground ($4.45) - The donut base is dense with rich chocolate flavor, and coated with a chocolate ganache of just the right thickness. I hate it when donuts just have a smear of topping to make the donut look attractive, but does barely anything flavor wise. This one, on the other hand, is richly flavored. (4/5) Chocolate Raspberry ($3.65) - This is my favorite, same chocolate cake donut base as above but with bright berry notes and specks of seeds. The tangy berries do wonders to temper down some of the sweetness. (5/5) French Toast ($3.65) - My least favorite by far. Covered with peanuts (which is fine), but the cake donut base or perhaps the glaze tastes heavily earthy, like an overload of cinnamon and nutmeg. (2/5) People who expect the exact same texture as a non-vegan donut, both the cake and yeast types, will probably be disappointed. If I just think of these donuts as their own thing, they're actually quite good. There's another donut shop that I prefer down the street, but Mighty-O Donuts certainly isn't a bad choice for a sweet treat.

I'd have to give the location a five out of five. Great staff were there making donuts when I was there. I'll start with the maple bar, which was packed full of flavor. I'll give it a four out of five: great texture, great flavor. The maple is really strong, stronger than my preference. I'll go to the buttermilk bar. The buttermilk bar was nice and dense, something great to dunk in a milk or a coffee. The Chocolate Ring, which is what they call it, I'd give it a five out of five: nice and pillowy soft in the middle, nice and had a crisp outside to it, and the chocolate was nice and rich and dark. Of course, you have the classic raised donut, which I had two of. Nice and fluffy in the middle, nice thin layer of glaze on the outside, pillowy soft, definitely a five out of five.

The store is really cute with lots of mochi donuts on the wall and a pink aesthetic that is perfect for friend hangouts or dates.

I opted for 50% sugar and there is absolutely no option to request less ice. A supposedly regular had to verbally flag to the worker to not add ice, which I probably should do, but at least please add it as an option so that it is more convenient. I guess they want to cut costs and give us less drink? For 50% sugar, I don't think they respected the customizations as I saw the worker just pour premade matcha latte to the cup and then added the cheese foam on top. When I tasted my drink, it was grossly sweet. Boba was undercooked so I ended up having to toss a lot of the boba out, and the boba was not cheap at $0.95 for the topping. Fortunately, when I got my drink, they had a few mochi donut circles I got to sample, and I am glad they sold out of the mochi donuts as the mochi donuts did not have the chewy texture that is present in mochi donuts.
