    Uglies(Apple fritter)
    N L.

    Very nice people. They only accept cash but there is an ATM available inside. Really enjoyed the regular glazed and the bavarian cream. I'll be back.

    Give your tastebuds a reason to be thankful this year. The donuts are dreamy. Delicate and perfectly puffed. The flavor is homey and perfect and the icing is the sweet that makes the treat. If I lived closer, these donuts would be my solace for having to wake up and go to work.

    So delicious! Love the atmosphere, their selection, very family style atmosphere, super helpful employees. Loved it!

    Always such a delight to visit this Jacksonville staple! We usually go on weekend mornings. Biggest tip there is to make sure you get there before 9:30am or the options will be a little more limited - they sell out quick! They do offer the option of calling the day before to place an order for pick up, and if you have a special occasion, or very specific donuts they you want, then this is the way to go. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. Our favorites these days are the chocolate glazed, the blueberry and the cinnamon sugar. The truth is: whatever you choose will be fresh & delicious! Always a delight to visit The Donut Shoppe!

    The Donut Shoppe delivers fresh, donuts every time with fast, friendly service. Cash only, but consistently great donuts make this a reliable local go-to.

    Yes...The Donuts Shoppe is still putting out some the great donuts. With all the donut shops coming and going. The Donut Shoppe reigns supreme. Yeah times have changed and prices are have gone up. They still put out a great product. And the other customers know it. I went on a Sunday at 9:30 am and the case was almost empty. But they still had a few flavors to choose from. If they are available you must try their Uglies, which are Apple Fritter donuts. DELICIOUS!

    My supervisor brought in these donuts for our team so I can't say anything about the location or customer service, but dang these donuts are good!! Amazing flavor, perfect amount of ice cream. Definitely comparable to Krispy Kreme (but better in my opinion!) If you think homemade with love Krispy Kreme, this is it!

    The Donut Shoppe is a great choice for old school donuts. The ambiance is pretty straightforward, but it is a donut shop (hence the business name of the Donut Shoppe) and most people are more concerned about the donuts than sitting in some upscale place. The staff was friendly enough and the donuts were a definite good choice for a sugary breakfast or snack. All in all, the Donut Shoppe is a great choice and I would definitely recommend this particular establishment.

    Old school donuts the way they should be! Cash only! Friendly service and amazing donuts! True Jacksonville staple

    Apple Fritters - did I say Apple Fritters???? Well, they call them uglies. But that's okay - They are delightful, plump, fruit filled deliciousness. I can't honestly say what anything else tastes like here as I'm addicted to the uglies, but the donuts I took home for others to share were gobbled up immediately, so there's that!

    I've been coming here for over 20 years and it's still a favorite. The flavors and the recipes through the years have stayed consistent. Had an ugly (apple fritter) today--and it remains #1 on my list. The dough was moist and soft, and all the bits of crunchy ends are so heavenly. Bought a dozen for the family and they devoured it. Service is quick and the donuts fly off the shelves. We will continue to be life long customers. Don't forget your cash! They don't accept cards.

The Strawberry Crumble donut was the only donut we tried, and it was pretty good, but I'd guess I slightly prefer the (excellent) Krispy Kremes. Our beef (hot dog) kolache was nice, but I don't think it was a great example of type. I've never tried a kolache before, but I can say the hot dog croissant I had at Cruffin & Tea a while back was much better, including the quality of the hot dog. Apple fritters are a favorite, but theirs was enormous, so we couldn't try many things here if we got that, so we saved it for a future visit. The owner also said the cinnamon roll were good, and that's another favorite to try on a future visit. They also had lumpia on this Saturday, but were out of empanadas by the time we got there after noon. Prices were reasonable: $10.81 with tax for the three items. I'd like to try this place again.

My first visit was a week or so after my grandson was born, and my son & I popped over to get a dozen of the Halloween seasonal doughnuts. I loved seeing that all of the doughnuts are literally made to order, WHEN ordered! The decorations & toppings are also fun & tasty. Since then (mid October), I've enjoyed sampling from at least 3 dozen doughnuts with no regrets. In fact, on our last visit, we stopped at Duck's Donuts FIRST to pick up a fresh dozen for the weekend. And by "weekend", I really just mean Saturday night & Sunday morning. These doughnuts are so good that I wasn't surprised that only 2 were left when we headed home the next day. Although they are BEST warm & fresh, these doughnuts are also delicious the next day. And I've really enjoyed the seasonal variety dozens. My son has mentioned that he & my DIL pick up doughnuts here regularly, even without me in town. In fact, Duck's Donuts wasn't even new to them when I suggested going the first time! [#40 of 2025]

Oh my gosh! The sandwiches are exquisite! My favorite is the fire pesto (turkey, cheese, egg, pesto, and chili oil on top). I cannot tell you how good this sandwich is! Every bite, I always savor, because it's one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. Their fries are also fire! Perfectly fried, crispy and golden, with some special seasoning on top! Prices are really reasonable for what you get and the quality cannot be matched! That's why I'm a regular! They do sell out sometimes so make sure you come early or call ahead! Definitely check out this donut shop, you won't be disappointed!

We couldn't find many open donut…read moreshops; and my husband said we couldn't get "ordinary" donuts from a grocery store, so we found Lukumades by searching on our phones. It was a little bit of a drive away, near the beach, and there was absolutely no parking on a Friday night. My husband dropped me off and circled while I placed a few to go orders. It was a cute little shop with donuts, shakes, and ice cream. The donuts are not traditional donuts; more like deep fried donut holes that are covered with all kinds of yummy toppings. They're also served nice and hot and in 10 packs. They had lots of cool donut flavors like: Dark Delight, Maple Bacon, , White Tella, and Love U Matcha, The prices range from $8.75 to $9.50 per box. They all sounded yummy; but we decided on Twix Fix, drizzled with caramel, melted chocolate, and cookies, and Lotus Crunch, which was topped with melted Biscoff cookies. Our order was ready in about 5 minutes and the bag of donuts was nice and warm. We ate them when we got back home. They were more chewy and heavier than regular donut holes, but rich and delicious. You could really only eat a few; so a box of 10 is a decent sized dessert for 2 people to share. Lukumades is definitely a very unique donut experience and worth supporting because they're not a huge chain. You'll be glad you tried them....and its worth the drive.
