Ooooo security at the door! It must be good :) And is! After waiting our turn to enter, we selected 3 unique doughnuts and left the 4th option up to chance by asking the employee to choose for us. The raspberry filled doughnut was superb according to my friend. I loved the maple bacon . These doughnuts will put a spell on you! read more

I had to make a stop at the famous donut shop in downtown Portland. What a fun place to visit but you will have to be let in if you stop at 6a. Not sure if that's the practice all day long or just in the morning when only one clerk on duty. The homeless still wander the streets but I'm told it's much better. I know security is positioned at nearly every corner in downtown Portland. I felt perfectly safe not that all homeless are dangerous! The place is really cool on the inside with a sample of every donut on display. Yes in that one photo, they have a donut on the ceiling! Ordering was a snap but deciding was another story. Many looked good but I was on a mission. Maple bars and apple fritters. I have had some real good ones so those are my standard. But how could you pass by a donut called "dirty old bastard"? Well I will start with the bad. The apple fritters have plenty of flavor and size but lacked apple chunks of any quality. 3 at best! Maple bar with bacon. Nearly a 4 but the glazing was way too sweet for a maple bar. Bloedows in Winona,MN, you still are the best followed by Randy's in LA. However, that dirty bastard withe the mix of chocolate, peanut butter and Oreo cookies raised the bar. No pun intended. So why a 4. The place was fun, service great and the originality of the donuts raised the score. A must stop in Portland. read more

Yum! Came here as a first stop and got a churro cheesecake, Portland Cream and a original glazed. The glazed was by far my favorite as the cream erupted in my mouth and the churro cheese cake was abundantly sweet. The glazed was so light and fluffy and was a dream come true. Store was really sweet. We were able to bring doggy in. Cute photo ops inside and out. read more

Food: you can't go wrong with a donut. I got a Bacon Maple Bar, Regular Maple Bar & a simple glazed donut. $15! Service was quick & super polite there wasn't a long wait either.

First time trying Voodoo doughnuts and I really enjoyed the selection of doughnuts. I came in around 7pm on a Saturday and was nervous they would be out of many doughnuts, but they had everything still in stock. The cashier was friendly and let me customize one of the donuts I ordered. Taste-wise, it was great. The Memphis donuts was a tasty banana fritter with chocolate chips and peanut butter drizzle. The Boston crème pie donut was very tasty as well, with a marshmallow filling. The inside of the store was small and there wasn't any seating, but there is a ledge outside to eat your donut if need be. read more

I am not a donut eater, so I did not sample the product. I'll start with that, in the spirit of honesty. I did buy for others, though. There was a meeting at work and I wanted to bring some. When I arrived at 6:15, the place was empty, and marked the first time I'd seen it without a line around the block. They were open, but locked for security reasons, but was let in quickly. The placed smelled great (often donut shops do not), and there was an explosion of colors at the counter. I ordered a "surprise me" premium dozen. The order was filled quickly with variety. At work, they disappeared quickly with rave reviews, especially the voodoo doll-shaped one (a personal visual favorite: gotta love the pretzel sticks through the heart), the blueberry, the big pink "Homer Simpson" donut (so-named by the eater) and the maple bacon bar (note to self: get three of those next time). read more

I have been thinking about Voodoo Doughnuts every morning since last week. I went early around 7:30AM and was surprised to see that there was no crowd. I ordered 2 donuts, an apple fritter and their maple bacon bar. The total came out to be around $9. Apparently they are the first to introduce bacon maple donuts to the world, so I had to try and I also never had it before. I love the combination of savory and sweet. The apple fritter was so big, filling, delicious, and my favorite part was eating the edges of it! There were so many donuts on display and I wish I could eat all of them! The options they have are very unique and some names/designs are hilarious. Service was great! The door was locked and an employee quickly came out to open it. There was a sign that said wait for the door to open, probably for safety because this location is in a kind of sketchy neighborhood and sometimes they get unwanted visitors. The building is easy to spot because it's so pink and they have a bright neon sign. I also noticed that they have a window for orders and that is perfect for late night donuts! read more

Voodoo Doughnut is where we ended up at night after dinner. We were craving something sweet so we came to Voodoo. There was a security guard at the entryway way so it felt pretty safe. They have a cool display of what donuts they carry at the moment. We picked a small box and shared a variety of donuts. Overall this was my first time having it and I would say they are super adorable!!! Donut-wise wise they are all also unique in flavor! read more

Came on a weekday morning and it was pretty empty. The donuts are a little too sweet for me personally, but I feel like you did not visit Portland unless you went to Voodoo! Staff are very friendly and easy to talk to! It's on the smaller side, but clean and well maintained. read more

I wish I tried this when I was younger and could intake more sugar so I could eat more of them. They are sweet but I enjoy the concept and kinda am a fan of the walk up window. It gives you time to hangout with your group, or catch up on stuff on your phone. Definitely a gotta try it at least once place. I won't lie I've been here more than once and each time the service has been great! read more

Came here during early an early afternoon, and the line was long out of the door. But moved fast. Inside the shop is not huge, just slightly bigger than a regular donut shop. We are a box of one of the pre-set selections. Tasted fresh, soft and buttery... delicious, but might be too sweet to some Asian foodies. The creativity they put to the donuts design is plausible, pleasing and attractive. Price are not bad, service was great. The young men took our order was super friendly and positive. The shop was fairly clean and smelled sooo sweet and buttery. Highly recommend. read more

Walking into Voodoo Doughnut feels a little like slipping into a neon-lit fever dream you probably shouldn't tell your doctor about. It's the kind of place Anthony Bourdain would walk into at 2 a.m., slightly regretting his life choices but fully committed to whatever sugary sin waits behind the counter. The air is thick with fried dough, nostalgia, and just the faint whisper of Portland weirdness tapping you on the shoulder like, "Yeah... you signed up for this." The doughnuts themselves are a reckless celebration of human indulgence. Some are piled with toppings that can only be described as "scientifically unnecessary." Others are shockingly simple, as if reminding you that good dough and hot oil were doing the job long before cereal-covered pastries showed up to the party. You take a bite, and suddenly you understand why people stand in line like pilgrims seeking enlightenment through sugar. Of course, the lineup outside is part of the ritual. You'll wait, you'll question your sanity, and you'll swear you're never doing this again. But then you finally hold that pink box in your hands, and it's like the universe pats you on the back and says, "Congrats, you survived." Inside are doughnuts that look like they were dreamed up by a mad scientist with a sense of humor and honestly, bless them for it. In the end, Voodoo Doughnut isn't just a bakery; it's an experience messy, chaotic, occasionally questionable, but absolutely unforgettable. Come hungry, come curious, and leave any sense of dignity at the door. Portland wouldn't have it any other way. read more

I had been to voodoo doughnuts before while in Denver. So I knew that this would also be a perfect spot to get ben a birthday doughnut as well. With their unusual flavors and styles, not to mention shapes. I chose two different doughnuts to take back to the hotel for him. One I thought would be funny to actually make him be the voodoo doll. When I got to the hotel I asked the front desk if they happened to have a singular birthday candle that I could have to put into Ben's donut. They said they would look around for me and within minutes, they came out with a candle so that I could light the donut for him since I wasn't getting a cake. So fun. He, of course, loved the donuts and it was a perfect way to start out his birthday meals. read more

I came to Voodoo mostly because it's kind of the thing to do while in Portland (and conveniently across from Portland Is Weird landmark). The surrounding shops are charming, and give you a feel of "New Orlean-ish", with walkway that leads to Saturday's Farmers Market -- nice path with painted red roses on the asphalt. That said, the parallel street nearby is a bit rough around the edges, with some homeless folks hanging around and the area feeling somewhat dirty. It's also strange to see security guards by the doors of various businesses. The inside decor as expected is semi-gothic with friendly cashier. The experience is good, got my pink bag filled with two donuts. My advice is to visit before the queue builds up. We got her around 9AM so was 6 people deep. Overall, a unique donuts shaped charters of ghosts, goblins and other different concoctions, including a simple old fashioned donut -- which most often looks cool but tastes overly sweet (at least for me). read more

Just as funky and fun as all of their other locations. They do have security. No waiting when I went, but I could see on certain days or times where there could be a line. They are famous for their over the top crazy donuts. They have all of their Halloween specialties right now and fall flavors. One of my favorites is the Butterfinger. The ODB is always on the menu, but the peanut butter poltergeist was a special flavor for this time. read more

It's not Krispy Kreme but Voodoo makes some fine donuts. Not sure they're worth standing in line though.

Not typically a donut person, but it felt like a tourist must stop sort of place. It was expensive and sort of comparable to gas station donuts... I had the "voodoo" donut and it was pretty good! A below average donut spot for the prices they charge. read more

The Inside and outside of the store are decorated cutely and very pink! I really enjoyed it. They have a security guard present as well to ensure safety and proper flow inside. Each donut is around $4 to $4.75. We ordered 6 donuts and were served promptly. To be honest, I'm not a big "luxury sweets" guy but these were very tasty. I normally like a basic donut and it's much cheaper, but these are worth the treat on fun occasions. My favorite was the Dirt donut (full of Oreos). But all were delicious! Will return more to try other flavors. Our server was nice and helpful read more

To my FAVORITE donut spot! This is the original one and then they came out with the one in Universal City in LA but one thing is for certain. Both locations are Cool, PINK, and adorable!!! My sister claimed this was too touristy when I was adamant on checking this location out but I most definitely made her drop me off here and ran in anyways! I wish I could have spent more time there but I did get a sweatshirt! The service was awesome as they both have the best workers that are SO sweet, quick, and help you pick out one of their zillion options of donuts. Making them and being around them I'm sure they understood the struggle of not ordering the entire menu and narrowing it down to four. Kudos for that! When I went for this trip I got my very favorite raspberry filled glazed donut, the pink bubblegum donut, the pink sprinkled donut, and the Oreo donut! Oh and how could I forget, their completely slept on hot chocolate! This deserves more recognition the chocolate tastes like it came from gharadellis chocolate factory or somewhere with nice chocolate that is DELICIOUS and the perfect pairing with your sweet treats at Voodoos! Merch is cute too I always get a T shirt or sweatshirt at both locations! I'd love to go to this location again next time I go to Portland being it is the OG one but I find myself at the LA one more often. Nonetheless, they're both amazing and my favorite!!! read more

While visiting PDX we obviously had to visit the original location of the viral Voodoo Doughnut. It was the middle of a heat wave, so when we arrived, there was absolutely no line. I've heard about the lines being hours long, but we got lucky. There was a security guard at the front door who let us in. The AC was not cold but was still a brief respite from the sweltering heat outside. I was mesmerized by the rotating display of the current specialty donuts that were for sale, and took in all the quirky artwork on the walls. We went with four flavors, but honestly it was sooo hard to decide!! However, since we were only in Portland for a few days and also camping, we didn't want any of the donuts to go bad in the car. (Thankfully, they held up pretty well, but we were glad we didn't get any more than four). All of the donuts were super unique! The flavors shone through the delicious frosting. The dough was fluffy and soft! Each donut was super hefty though, and I'm glad there were two of us to share. We definitely couldn't finish all four in one sitting. Additionally, we are used to having Asian desserts, so they were still pretty sweet for us. Was Voodoo Doughnut worth the hype? Yes, BUT not enough to stand in line for hours. Again we got super lucky that there was zero line and we were the only ones in the store. We would return to try other flavors when we go back to visit Portland, but would definitely pass if the lines are crazy next time. read more

I have visited Voodoo Doughnut a few times..over the past 12+ years, but never wrote the review about it! Finally, after my recent visit, I finally worked up the effort to write this. Overall, I thought the shop was really more for tourists. I remembered back in 2012, the line used to be so long! But I guess now that Voodoo Doughnut is more accessible via other stores and even out of state (ahem, Seattle, WA), the line didn't seem to be as long as I remembered. Overall, I thought it was ok. I have tried probably 20+ variation of their donuts before...but I feel like the taste didn't necessary stand out. It just happened to be a quirky institution for tourists to visit to complete their Portland visit experience in my mind. This last round of visit, I sat at one of the benches outside of the shop finishing my donut next to a guy who was scarfing down doughnuts. Once he saw I ate some donuts...and after he finished it...he turned around in a friendly way and said "hmm...not as good as you thought it would be, huh?"...that kindda summed it up how he and I felt about the doughnuts I guess. But...go there if you have never been and see some quirky flavors/variations they have. The taste though...to me was just plain donuts. Nothing too special unfortunately. read more

Definitely be careful in this area. There was some shooting activity going on the day before I came. Their selection is pretty good and quite unique with interesting flavors such as maple bacon, mango tango which is what I ordered. I absolutely loved the maple bacon. The taste was very unique and the sweetness and savory balanced out really well. Tap to pay is accepted. Overall, Voodoo Doughnut has some amazing and delicious donuts. Do note they are on the sweeter side. Wait and get a bit lengthy but the flavor assortment is wide. read more

I've heard lots of good things about Voodoo doughnut so I had to check it out during my day in Portland. Came around 6pm on a Tuesday and it was just starting to get busy. There are sooo many types of doughnuts - I struggled to pick just one so I ended up getting two: The Old Dirty Bastard and the Mango Tango. There are even vegan versions of some of the donuts as well! I really liked the donuts! The O.D.B is chocolate frosting topped with Oreo and peanut butter - very rich and indulgent. The Mango Tango has vanilla frosting with mango jelly filling - light and sweet. I'm glad I got both because they are very different from each other. The donuts hit the spot and they satisfied my sweet tooth. I would definitely come back to Voodoo! read more

Voodoo Doughnut gets all the hype and attention, and perhaps deservedly so. They certainly know how to market themselves both in terms of funk quirky doughnuts, and their advertising. But locals will tell you - and I'll generally agree with them - that other local doughnut businesses in Portland are just as good. Yelp reviews seem to align with that. On my visit, my plan was to get one of their bacon maple bars. But there was a line outside the shop, because they needed to make a fresh batch of doughnuts, and we had to wait about 45 minutes before we could get in. It was a good doughnut (getting it freshly made certainly helps). Then I looked at their nutritional information. Some of their larger specialty doughnuts can have as much as FIVE TIMES the recommended daily amount of sugar. I sampled one of those; it was very filling, but there was no way I could (or would) finish something like that. You should definitely visit a Voodoo at some point - Portland or otherwise - if only for the experience, but in Portland, check out some of the others too. read more

Voodoo Doughnut - Donuts Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I was warned about this place being overrated, and with an open mind, I still came anyway to check it out. Wait was about 30 minutes in the line, and there was an interesting transient that was talking to himself while I was in line before he moved on with his life. Anyway, once I got to the front, I ordered an apple fritter and it was pretty large! That's the only compliment I could give though, because the apple fritter wasn't hot and fresh, rather room temp and not as fresh. The apple filling was just a-ok and overall just lacked the flavor I'm used to from the usual apple fritters. My girlfriend got the banana cream donut and she thought it was just average. Overall, Voodoo Doughnuts is a skip in my book. Cool looking location though. read more

I think their donuts are super fun and I love how quirky their whole brand is. The location is cool because of the street being painted with roses all around it. The line to order is just a mess. They don't have a way to form a line so it was pure chaos and was so frustrating I took a star off. But the donuts: I generally really just like a maple bar and they have a really good one, but that's not why I go to Voodoo: Mango Tango is my fave (really yummy mango filling and Tang powder on the frosting). My favorite this time was Cherry Cola. The cherry filling was spectacular with big chunks of flavorful cherries, and the whipped cream tasted like cherry cola. Super cool. Grape Ape has that fake grape candy flavor that you either love or hate (I love). I am a big 80s kid that loves loves loves Captain Crunch and is not allowed to keep a box of it at home so I am like a kid again when I get some on a donut. Born in Our weirdo Portlandia, this place is a cute little thing to do if you're visiting or have a visitor. read more

Can you go to Portland and not stop by Voodoo? I can't! I visited with a couple of friends while we were in town for Hood to Coast and as usual - it totally hit the spot. I stuck with my go to: The Maple Bacon donut. It's sweet yet salty, aka perfection. I appreciate how they actually crisp the bacon instead of just tossing it on there because it makes it that much more delicious. I've heard there can be really long lines here but I've gotten lucky going at off-hours. The doughnuts are elaborate, whimsical, and reasonably priced for what you get. They also have some more basic (and cheaper) options if you want to save a few bucks and/or calories! I have always had great customer service here. Yes, this is a very touristy place but it's also Portland classic for a reason! Check it out, pretty sure this is the original!!! read more

Wow! This is what a donut should be! While the raised dough is more dense, it is obviously fresh and has a wonderful flavor. The chocolate icing is 1/8" thick and the texture is substantial. Not like cake frosting, nor the thin brittle icing on many other donuts, this is something in between. Creamy yet solid. While there was a line of six or so customers, service was quick. The place is clean and has a security guard out front. Due to the homeless, I imagine. read more

We were walking through Portland and ran into Voodoo Doughnut randomly. It had a cute little store front and we knew . Very nice and helpful staff. We tried 4 different donuts. Glazed, chocolate covered, apple fritter, and maple bacon. They were pretty dang good in their own right, you can't go wrong in my opinion. I did like the maple bacon a little more than the others, but they were all great. They were super fluffy, moist, not overly sweet, and just plain delicious. You must stop by here if you are visiting and try one or more of these wonderful treats! read more

Let's be honest, you want candy. Right? If so, go here. I waited in line for 20 minutes on a Saturday morning at 9:30am. The security guard stopped me before I went in because there were already 4 customers inside. I got the banana cream donut and the "Old Dirty Bastard" which is covered with Oreos and drizzled with peanut butter. Maybe there's a reference I'm missing? I know ODB but why is it called that? Anyway, *tipping*!!! Why am I asked to pay a tip for an item that I had to wait in line for and go to the counter to get?! And the tip defaults were high. Don't like. Maybe I'm old school but tip is for service. Anyway- if you want pricy breakfast candy, this is the place. read more
