    I got the glazed doughnut & maple bar. They're a little squished from the paper bag they were in :)

    I stumbled across this spot this morning and it exceeded my expectations. Immediately met with friendly service, ran by the owner, Chang who is very personable and kind. A great variety of doughnuts, I also saw they had espresso drinks and breakfast sandwiches which I'm looking forward to trying next time. I peeked around the bakery and he also sold greeting cards and plants. I tried the doughnut when I got home and honestly it was the freshest doughnut I've ever had, the type that melts in your mouth. I should also mention that it is not overpriced- $3.80 for the 2 doughnuts I got. I will 100% be returning to try what else they have. If you're in the area, you have to check this spot out! :)

    Card accepted over $5. Apple donut was delicious and filled with chunks of apple and sauce, plain glazed donut was so pillowy. Both were very sweet and perfect for coffee. Great if you like soft, pillowy donuts. Tried an egg roll but it wasn't my favorite-- crispy but the type where it's mostly veggie like cabbage and carrots, which ways tastes just sad to me.

    A petite yellow building with mighty tasty donuts. Le Donut in Tacoma has parking on both the front and back of the building. When I arrived about ten minutes before 10 a.m. on Friday 3 March 2023 they had one of the donut I had spotted online and wanted to try out, the glazed apple fritter. There was a COVID-19 protective screen in place that reminded me of the protective clothing my dental hygienist wore the last time I went in. It did not hinder placing my order and payment, and the lady behind the counter was friendly. Price for the glazed apple fritter was $3.00. The apple fritter was well glazed, not too thick nor too sugary. There were small chunks of apple throughout the donut. The dough part of donut was a little on the denser side, but not too much so, and the overall shape was a little flatter, almost like a saucer. It was a bit larger than some of the other donuts offered, I would guess maybe two to three times the size. I did eat the whole fritter in one go, it was filling, though I did not feel overly full.

    Hello!

    This place is a legend and it's sort of Tacoma secret I think. They're a small donut shop in Hilltop neighborhood that's been here for years and their donut is.. REALLY GOOD (for lack of better description). You just have to try it. You thought Top Pot is good? If you had a blind tasting, I bet $5 you will pick Le Donut's donut. Try their Bacon maple bar. I think it actually might be the best one in the world @_@ dare I say. It's a mom and pop donut shop and just like your mom and pop they're not always gonna be in mood to having convo with you. Just get your donut and go. But you will not be disappointed.

    Does anyone know how much one donut costs?

    They vary. About a dollar if I remember correctly..., but cinnamon rolls and a couple other items are $2 and the bacon maple bars are $3. BUT a dozen donut holes are $1.50

    Hunt for the best blueberry donut continued…read more Helen's has got a decent fan base so I went in search of the best blueberry donut. I tried them in the past apparently because I have photos associated to that visit (even bought a dozen). I obviously didn't remember until I started writing this review. First the location is pretty easy to reach. Small strip mall store front off Portland Ave. I walked in and there were two people ahead of me but no seating and hardly room to view the selection. There is a plastic COVID screen still up and pictures of people who have stolen from them. The selection of donuts is decent and apparently on the weekends there are speciality fritters. The owner operators are kind and so helpful (high praises!). I ordered one blueberry donut and one banana fritter. Both appeared to be well cooked and scrumptious. However, each of the donuts were over fried and tasted like old grease. The blueberry cake was full of blueberries but no real blueberry taste. The fritter was soaked in grease and no banana flavor. Sadly this is not on my list to try again.

    Absolutely the best donut place in the state. I drive all the way down from Edmonds. Everyone that…read moreworks behind the counter is super friendly kind and nice. I love the banana. Fritters I come all the way down here for the banana. Fritters it's always a nice treat they have a good family ambience vibe great food great service. I love this place. Five stars hands-down I went to the dentist this morning right up the street and told them they need to start coming here and getting their donuts stop going to high large corporate chains when they buy donuts for their staff.
