This location is much smaller than the other locales I have been to. They don't make the doughnuts on site, so when they're out, they're out. Same coffee and doughnuts as other locations, as well as the same polite, efficient service. I avoid the coffee, because its gross, but there were no dirty looks or unkind words when we brought in our own coffees. The place feels up quickly with families with kids, so be prepared for it to be loud. They have a few games available to play. My boyfriend and I had a fun time with the trivia cards from before we were born that were sitting at the table. There is parking available for free behind the building, which is in the Red 160 apt complex. Was slower and more convenient parking than the Bellevue location, so I imagine I will be back more often. read more

Zach, Top Pot Doughnuts represents a danger to this case. With such great donuts comes great distraction, and we find ourselves sidetracked when we should be on the way to the next part of the investigation. The opening of this location is practically an obstruction of justice, though it is one that we can't help but enjoy, right Zach? This fresh location is smaller than some of its peers, though it does not detract from the offerings found inside. As it is, Top Pot features tasty treats in many forms. At the time of our visit, the selection was limited, though to be fair this was close to the opening. We suspect there will be growth as the time flies. Top Pot makes for a great stop, right Zach? We can't help but feel its opening is a deliberate hindrance to this case. We should go over the case notes later...over a donut and some coffee. read more

I've heard lot about the specialty donuts at Top Pot, and decided to try it. To be completely honest, it was pure disappointment... First of all, the dough was not very soft, it did not seem fresh (and that was at 9 am on a Saturday), the chocolate that was glazed on top of the donut was not edible... I had to throw away bavarian cream donut... (the one that I've heard so much about). And what completely destroyed the whole experience - donuts are OVERPRICED! I got 4 donuts, and it came up to $10 (not all of them were specialty either)... I'll stay true to Sunrise donuts, where for $10 not only I could get the at least 7 donuts for that price + a cup of coffee... read more

What delicious glazed donuts and the good vibes at the drive-thru made my day! My 11 year old had a salted caramel ice cream cone and loved it. Highly recommend if you need a delicious treat and a smile. I'll keep paying it forward! read more

Stopped by on my way home because I felt like something sugary on a Sunday afternoon. The store was completely empty, which is maybe a sign. The interior was kind of dark and boring. I didn't even look at the pricing, just the doughnuts. Nothing looked spectacular, but I settled on a Feather Boa, a Raspberry Bull-Eye, and a Maple Chocolate Cake on the recommendation of a cashier. I was very surprised when the price was $8 for 3 doughnuts. The doughnuts were completely underwhelming - not enough raspberry (artificial), dry cake doughnut, and not even the tiniest hint of maple taste in the maple frosting. I didn't finish a single one, which is a travesty. For almost $3 a doughnut, I was expecting amazingness. Alas, I just got boring doughnuts that I would put in a category right below grocery store bakery. Needless to say, I will not be back. Sunrise Donuts for me it is, until I find something better. read more

The word I'd pick to describe this location is "meh". The donuts taste okay, not amazing or anything, and when asked I was told by the girl behind the counter that they don't even make their donuts in-house, but have them delivered from a factory, meaning they're not fresh. And yet they STILL charge an arm and a leg for them! Speaking of the girls behind the counter, they're not too friendly. One time I went in, there was a line out the door but only one girl was helping customers while the other two sat and gossiped by the espresso machine! Parking is problematic as well, since it's smack dab in the middle of an apartment complex and the only lot is underground and around the corner half a block away. Weird place to put a business. It's a shame too, I hear good things about Top Pot, but since this location is the only one near me, it doesn't paint a good picture for the company as a whole. Take my advice and stick to Sunrise Donuts off of 520, better service, better donuts, better coffee, cheaper price. read more

There's no question that the donuts are great: fresh and fun flavors. I'm partial to the one with pink icing and coconut, while my kid is a fan of the classic chocolate bars. The coffee is pretty good too. The staff here is super friendly and, at least when I've gone by, there's no problem finding street parking, and no line, so points for that. I do find this location's seating a little unappealing. It's dark and toward the back of the store - why? I would much rather sit in the front and watch the activity on the sidewalk. But that's me. The donuts are still great so we stop here fairly often and never regret our selections. read more

Greats donuts...good coffee - though it took 1/2 a donut munching to GET the coffee though. Only drawbacks are lack of on-site kitchen so no piping hot fresh ones...and did I spot a unisex bathroom? I'll hold it, thanks. Not a terrible amount of seating, but we snagged a 3-top. read more

We live above this top pot and frequently visit.. at least twice a week ...for coffee or doughnuts. The coffee and doughts are typical top pot quality ....which is delicious. What I love most about this location is the staff. They would treat my dog to an organic dog treat every time we took him in. Now my dog can not walk around the block without pulling me towards top pot. read more

Stopped by to pick up a dozen donuts but was kind of shocked to find that a dozen cost $19.99. They had a pretty standard selection of donuts to choose from. Probably if I had seen something really unique I might have bought a dozen but there wasn't anything special or unique about what I saw. The staff member was nice and the place was clean and organized so I didn't want to give 2 stars when everything else was fine. read more

Simple, rich doughnut! I ordered the Maple Chocolate Cake - I was pleased with how rich it was, and really enjoyed the sweetness of the maple frosting over a heavy, filling chocolate doughnut! The decor of the shop was simple, but it was empty on the Saturday afternoon when I went. It's a good doughnut shop, but not a super exciting place to meet a friend. read more

Top Pot Doughnuts - Maple Chocolate Cake Doughnut - Donuts Near Me - Redmond, Washington

This top pot has the same yummy donuts as the other top pots.. and my newest discovery of the gluten-free jam biscuits (a cornmeal type of scone/biscuit with raspberry jam plopped on top. I'm not even a gluten free girl, but these are so good that I actually prefer these over a donut, and that's saying a lot. In fact, the couple next to me groaned with misery when i ordered the last one-and they weren't gluten-free either! Coffee.. good. Service, beyond excellent. Great, friendly, and helpful young ladies behind the counter. Every time I've been there, the owner is working as well, and you can tell she chooses and trains her staff perfectly. The place is smaller than some locations, and can sometimes get noisy with the kidlets, but in general, I love this place and their products. I don't love the prices.. which are outrageous, but that's why i go infrequently. That and my expanding waistline. Sugar raised donuts and maple glazed... sigh... read more

The ordering layout is odd, it's a small case located up a couple steps or a ramp, really small space -- if it were crowded, it would be confusing I think. Service was friendly though! The doughnuts, though, were very good! We tried a cake doughnut with a caramel frosting that was excellent. Most of the time, cake doughnuts are dry and crumbly, but this was perfectly moist. Also took a bavarian and their gluten-free jam filled doughnuts, both were good. I really appreciate that these doughnuts are not sickeningly sweet, even the chocolate frosting on the bavarian had a good balance, and no extra glazes or anything. Would visit again if I were in the area! read more

They're good, they're local, but they're just donuts. I guess were spoiled, were used to Bluestar donuts in Portland, which cost twice as much but knock your socks off! read more

Pretty good flavor, but my fritter was really cold and a bit dense. Definitely was not fresh. None of our donuts were very fresh. I'm sure these are pretty good if you could get one a bit more fresh. They must make them off site and a day ahead or something. Coffee was the best part of the morning. Pretty sure I could have gotten a warm donut at another place in town more local. read more

My favorite donut place is now in Redmond! We just got donuts 2 days after it opened and they were great (of course). I'm glad they had my Raspberry glazed old fashioned donut which they almost never have at the Bellevue location! They are reasonably priced for how good they are! The coffee drinks are fantastic as well- they use a really good French Vanilla syrup in their vanilla lattes and it makes a difference. They're so creamy and good! They also do "latte art" depending on the barista which is fun! read more

Are the donuts tasty?: YES! The variety?: average. Was it worth $10.00 for four donuts?: No. These donuts are ample in size, fresh, and yummy. But they did not transcend my faves: Krispy Kreme and Carousel donuts in Mill Creek in flavor enough to warrant the additional cost. (Although, they come in adorable boxes.) I might stop in for a donut once and awhile but doubt it will be my go-to donut shop. read more

The coffee is so good! The americano is my favorite, can really taste the good coffee beans on this one :) The girls are very nice as well so makes your coffee stop even better! The convenience is also a plus! read more

I don't do yelp reviews too often but i wanted to share my experience yesterday. I walked in with my 2 year old while my husband was at rudys barbershop. They were somewhat busy and I told the woman behind the counter that It was my first time there and instantly she jumped right in to go into detail about menu items and how top pot is always super fresh and their coffee's are done a little different too to allow the coffee flavor to stand out more than just pure syrup or sugar. She was so sweet and patient with me and she really showed enthusiasm and pride in her work. I ordered a raspberry white mocha and it was the best mocha i have ever had!! The mapel bar was yummy and my daughter seemed to love her pink rainbow doughnut :) we will definitely be back!! read more

Top Pot Doughnuts - Donuts Near Me - Redmond, Washington

First visited when they opened, not too bad. Then they started going downhill. Lately the doughnuts have been far overglazed. Today, that went to a new level. Apparently they got new equipment that helps pile the glaze higher than ever. Nasty, huge layer of sugar that totally killed the doughnut. The doughnut itself is no longer in the neighborhood of decent (supposed to be a salted caramel old fashioned, looks like a poorly made cheap cake doughnut instead.) The poor consistency of quality in the last few years was a warning, like the glaze I got two weeks ago that seemed to have been 'extended' with powdered sugar and corn starch (or cooked very badly), ruining the flavor. So sad, used to be ok. read more

So I work across the street from Top Pot Redmond Every time I go in they are so friendly.... Today was a bad day for me so they gave me free Hot Cocoa and a free doughnut, it was a sample of the lemon. I think. I'm eating the Bavarian chocolate cream filled, so amazing. I usually go in and have the maple bar and a black coffee. So good. Even though they are never hot when I go in they are still great. If you haven't gone in yet...go in... they are nice. totally adorable. super delicious doughnuts! Note: They get sent in from Bellevue, where the doughnuts are made. Yay! DONUTS! read more

Pretty underwhelmed. Selection was small, would have expected more choices. Their display case is tiny, how does this even qualify as a donut shop? Donuts were nothing special, barely above grocery store quality. Four donuts cost me over ten dollars! Service was indifferent. Skip these place if you are looking for good donuts. read more

It's a little pricey about $8 for four donuts. I love their music: 90s pop! They had a sign for bacon maple donuts that got me excited unfortunately they only offer it once a year :(. We went late in the afternoon so the options were very limited. I got their last glaze raspberry donut. It was good but again pricey for a basic donut. read more

I mostly visit for the coffee. It's always made with a lot of care, they serve very tasty lattes. The doughnuts just happen to be a nice side effect of going for coffee, I usually get a lemon glazed doughnut if it's available (otherwise the raspberry glazed). Doughnuts are good, but the coffee is better. Small interior, but I've never gone and not been able to get a table. Worth the trip, if only for the coffee, not the worst doughnuts though. read more

The donuts are pretty much the same as other Top Pots. I'm guessing they bring them in from Bellevue because there's not enough room in this tiny place to bake them. The first saturday was off to a slightly rough start. There were too many girls behind the counter. They kept getting in each other's way and slowing things down. They also have only one cash register, so they are going to need to figure out how to dance around each other. The seating area is cramped and oddly shaped, because of the wheelchair ramps and the oddly-shaped corner storefront. It's a donut shop though... I'd go back. :) read more

We finally stopped in about a year after they opened. The layout of this space is really poor. Even if there are only a few customers waiting in line to order or waiting for their drinks, no matter where you stand you are in someone's way. I can't imagine it when it gets busy. The doughnuts are great (cake doughnuts are my favorite kind), though a little pricey. However, I was not impressed with my drink: my chai latte basically just tasted like steamed milk. And my husband's mocha was not very mocha-y at all. We were in a small hurry and we waited almost 10 minutes for our drinks. Enough time to eat our doughnuts and peruse the various games and puzzle books offered for those looking for a little entertainment with their doughnuts. And, try to grab street parking if you can. Getting in and out of the parking garage is a little ridiculous. read more

I'm a simple person but I really enjoyed their oreo doughnut even though it was a little too sweet it was great with their coffee, love the place itself it has some board games that people can play while eating. I do wish they would expand there mene a little though and while ordering the cashier did seem to get a little impatient read more

I'm not a huge donut guy, but Top Pot produces a great product. What struck me about TP was the quality of their coffee products - great espressos here. read more

I love these donuts. My favorite is the double trouble, but they are all good. Very rich and very filling. Great Coffee! and the staff is pretty good!! read more

The donuts are great, especially the salted-caramel old-fashioned. Also, great deal on the nice drip coffee, with a great deal + free refills. My only problem with this location is their internet. From time to time someone will tell me that they have finally got their WiFi fixed. Each time I have been disappointed as a try to work and burn 10 minutes trying to connect to something. There is most certainly a "TOP_POT" WiFi network that appears to offer "Excellent Connection" but simultaneously "No Internet Access". Just a little frustrated at having to move meetings at short notice because of this. Then again, they are a donut place and do those and coffee well. If this place got their WiFi situation together it would truly be an ideal meeting and work spot. (free garage parking in downtown Redmond). A few donuts would certainly make a few meetings go much better... read more

I have had good experiences here. It's s local donut chain that makes good stuff. Their coffee is good and they have a good donut selection in the mornings. I don't know how anyone can say Sunrise donuts is better. Sunrise optimizes for cost savings and gave me a stomach ache. To sum up Top Pot in Redmond is quite good but not amazing. read more

The donuts are AWESOME! A little dangerous since its close to home, we hit this location every other weekend. The maple bars are pure heaven. There is also a Seahawks donut they carry on Sundays during the fall which is great- frosted with green, blue and grey frosting which our family loves. Be warned, you can't eat just one! read more

If you like rich cake doughnuts this the place. There doughnuts are rich and tasty. Really good with coffee. I do wish they made some doughnuts on the spot that are fluffy and warm read more

If you love cake type donuts this place is a 5, ice cream is delish too! Highly recommend the apple fritters!

Not bad a little pricy but the donuts overall good. You do have to come in the morning though couple times I came by later and they were stale. But fresh in the morning. read more

Went in for a couple donuts this morning and wasn't very impressed. The cashiers were extremely unfriendly and I felt like I was nuisance for ordering. Two donuts and a bill for $5.50...I'd rather go to another shop for fresher donuts with a cheaper price tag. read more

I'm not a huge doughnut (donut?) fan but they have great espresso! I decided to try their latte on a whim one day and seriously, it's good. They even have an espresso punch card. yay to my future free latte~ read more

Was very excited to try my first Top Pot, and especially after I saw that their pumpkin spice was made with real pumpkin. It didn't taste like real pumpkin and the coffee was good, but nothing over the top. read more

Top Pot Doughnuts - Ovaltine donut - Donuts Near Me - Redmond, Washington

Meh... Good doughnuts, very poor customer service. My family and I went here at about 1pm for a nice Father's Day, weekend (I work Sundays), treat and they literally had 4 donuts to choose from. Yes, a donut shop only had about 4 whole donuts to choose from. And the staff acted like we were a nuisance for being there. Not worth the trouble to go here. read more

Donuts were good, and the place was cute. I got the maple bar thing and it was good, but not much better than other places. Pretty standard for a good donut place. So why 1 star? The service was atrocious. Ordered a cold brew and after 10 minutes of waiting just told them to forget it. When I did, no apology or anything - just a kind of spaced out ambivalence. Cold brew is just pouring cold brew coffee over ice. With so many awesome places in the area and a Starbucks just up the way - I am stunned this place stays in business. Other locations must be much better. If the manager or DM reads this, this visit was the morning of July 10th. You should really retrain those two. They didn't represent your brand all that well. read more
