3 out of the 4 donuts were at least one day old! Very dry. When I go to a boutique shop I expect a higher price on the food but I also expect the food to be fresh at that price. I do not recommend. read more

So glad find this donut ice cream place! Donuts are so fresh and fluffy! Ice cream is SO GOOD! I normally feel other ice cream shops are just too sweet and overly sugary, but ice cream here tastes creamy and flavorful with the proper level of sweetness. I had a cherry ice cream- all natural flavor and fresh crushed cherries in it. I felt so happy and jumpy because it tastes so good lol Had 2 containers to go- dark chocolate and coffee. Will be my to go ice cream and donut place from now on read more

Pricey but good donuts. They have a wide range and have both cake and raised donuts.

I bought 2 dozen of these bad boys. The price was right and they were pretty. The cake donuts tasted like they had either been fried in not super fresh oil or that had been fried to long. They were not terrible, but I wouldn't recommend them. They raised donuts though were a treat. The maple was the right amount of sweet (and not cloying). I would say that the fancy donuts were beautiful and worth presenting. I just went for a standard mixture this time and my office peeps were happy! read more

If you live in the area and have kids, I would suggest to come here while you are catching up with friends. It is located in a quiet neighborhood, yes it is safe so you can walk around the area. I heard about their Maple Bacon Long Johns and I tried it. I thought it was ok. I mean it was just a bacon on top of a donut...athough I love their coffee. I had white mocha with soy. Overall, a great place to catch up with an old friend and it is spacious inside. Make sure to check out the Autism Store next door too. read more

Decided to pick up some donuts and found this place was on my route home. Was able to view their site and order ahead. Other than a few flavors no longer being offered the donuts were great. Had an old fashioned sour cream, chocolate devils food cake, zebra, and a chocolate glazed with sprinkles. The donut holes were tasty, my wife commso much better than grocery store ones. The order ahead option was nice, prompt service since I ordered in the parking lot and friendly staff. read more

Exceptional service and food! The Maple Bacon Long John is to die for! The staff were friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had a nice visit. They engaged with my toddler and helped him pick out his favorite donut! read more

I have eaten donuts here a few times, and while their preparations are consistently fresh, the donuts do not seem to be made from scratch, but rather from a boxed mix. I recently bought a glazed cake donut, chocolate-covered Bismarck, and a maple bacon long john to see if there was a difference in quality and flavor between the different donut types. In third place was the glazed cake donut that was vanilla forward, but way too sweet and doughy, perhaps a bit undercooked. I'd say in second place was the maple bacon long john. The long john's maple frosting and bacon strip on top make this a better choice, but the donut itself was mostly flavorless although it had a light airy consistency. The best choice for me was the Bavarian cream-filled chocolate frosted Bismarck. It is closer to what I want in a Bismarck - a light airy batter, soft chew, and a nice rich custard. I don't understand the high ratings of YoYo by many reviewers as I believe their donuts are overrated for the high prices they charge. read more

Saturday morning and the line is almost to the door! I am happy to say it was worth the wait. Great selection of donuts, buns, pastries, etc. We tried the cinnamon bun an apple fritter. Both really good. Coffee and tea brewed on site too. It looks like they are serving lunch now too with a selection of hot dogs. Based on the baked goods I would give lunch a try. read more

Lots of unique and tasty donuts at this shop! There's always a long line for the donuts here but they are well worth the wait.

A funky donut shop with a variety of hand-crafted items located in a little strip mall off shady oak road in Minnetonka serving a wide variety of donuts. I have to admit I don't often venture out for donuts but it was "national donut day" (last Friday in June) so I opted for a special treat. Needless to say it's a very popular spot on Donut day with a line out the door but they were well prepared and things moved quickly. Donuts are tasty and they have some unique flavors. read more

Amazing Donuts! Every time we have gone there is a line out the door, but they're always so quick! Never waited more than 10 minutes tops! Great choices! The normal staple donuts and the fancy fun donuts! The coffee is wonderful as well. It's always a stop for us! read more

If you are looking for a donut shop that is NUT FREE, look no further! I have a child with life threatening nut allergies. We had not been able to enjoy a donut until Yo Yo opened its doors. They have a wonderful selection to chose from. They only reason I didn't give it a 5 star was because our last visit the donuts tasted like the oil they were fried in was old. First time in all my trips! read more

The donuts are fantastic! The maple bacon long John is amazingly delicious! I would rate YoYo donuts 10 stars if I could. Everything always so fresh and yummy! Love the cute designs on donuts and how some are for special occasions like the school colors for sport teams. I cannot wait to go back and enjoy another treat. read more

Though my donuts looked fabulous adorn with cereal, toasted marshmallow, and whipped frosting; I found them to be quite dry and stale. The price is competitive as far as artisan donuts go, definitely not overpriced like the ones in the cities. The store itself is huge and doused with donut decor. I found it a fun place to catch up over donuts and coffee as it was quiet and business was slow. They also sell homemade ice cream if you want to factor that into your morning routine, I won't stop you. Cheers! read more

YoYo Donuts - Pictured: s'mores donut Not pictured: the drool running down my chin (you're welcome) - Donuts Near Me - Minnetonka, Minnesota

The best thing about being laid off from my job is that I am no longer so close to YoYo donuts. These things are ADDICTIVE, and not just cause of all of the sugar! They got a maple bacon long john donut that will have you question your life. They got an apple fritter that will have you slap yo' mama. Cookies and Cream?! S'mores?! Twice a month minimum, someone from work would bring in a dozen or so of these. At first whiff of their ("their" being the donuts) distinctive smell we all popped up like lemurs. When the box was set down, we transformed into gladiators. So many elbows were thrown to get the first and last donut! There is no familial consideration in sharing these morcels. They are strictly first come first serve. You may be saying about me, "you don't work near there, so you could get them just for yourself". Well random person, I do on occasion, but only rarely, as I refuse to share these donuts, while at the same time my waistline refuses to stretch beyond its current capacity. But it is not just health reasons I must avoid YoYo. I fear what will happen when my pals smell these donuts. Will they try to taste the donuts? Will I allow it? Can I still fit in my gladiator armor? read more

I enjoy dense and moist donuts, while these are airy and slightly dry. These are very overpriced for what you get, on par with (or slightly behind) your typical gas station donut. To give credit, they do offer a larger selection that is far more creative than your gas station fare. The problem is, they don't taste good and they charge twice what your typical shop charges. Two stars for the creativity and some fun to try options, but in the end this one isn't worth the line, price, or calories. 10 miles up 169 is Valley Pastries. Give that a try for the opposite experience. Nothing fancy, just basic donuts done really really well for half the cost. There is often a line there too, but that one is worth it. read more

Stopped in on a weekend morning, the line was long but the staff was efficient so it went quick. Great tasting donuts with a wide variety of options. Takes a 1 star hit for being a bit overpriced ($13 for a 6 pack). read more

I can't believe I haven't written a review. This is our only go to for donuts and it's fantastic. Always fresh, unique flavors and most important, they are peanut and tree nut free. My 6yo always asks and I can confidently and happily tell him, pick anything! As it's made fresh and in small batches, you'll need to come early if you absolutely need a certain flavor. We love the old fashion, lemon old fashion, dirt and worms, red velvet and espresso. The ice cream (seasonal) is awesome too! Don't let the lines scare you, it goes quickly. read more

Once upon a time, I was driving from St Paul to Bloomington. There was a lot of construction, and the road forked without any warning. I ended up driving 5 miles out of my way because there was no exit. When I finally got to an exit, I uturned around. Then my GPS told me to turn on HWY 100? I'm not too familiar with the Twin Cities so I just got onto HWY 100. A sign said "Minnetonka" and it rang a bell. YOYO DONUTS!!! I have been wanting to try this place for some time, but I was never in the area. So, why not turn a bad thing into a good thing? Stopped into the shop, which was in a random shopping strip. I was greeted with a smile. I ordered the Creme Brûlée and Bacon Maple Donuts. Let me tell you, the Maple Bacon was super moist. I wish the bacon cut was thicker, that would have made the bite more exciting, but the flavor was really good. I liked it. As for the Creme Brûlée, it was ok. I thought it was a little too sweet, and that it didn't really taste like what it was supposed to taste like. Tasted like a donut with custard filling and melted sugar on top. It didn't taste bad, but I was just expecting more from it. Presentation was awesome though. I felt my detour was worth it, and I'm very glad I finally got I tried it. read more

We got a half dozen, and I had the blueberry cake donut. It was pretty tasty, but I'd definitely like to go back and try more!

We wanted something sweet for breakfast and this place didn't disappoint. The donuts were fantastic! I enjoyed the Dirt and Worms cake donut and my daughter loved the blueberry cake donut. We also got 2 Glazed donuts and they were super yummy. We plan on getting more next weekend! read more

From the outside, Yoyo Donuts appears to be a regular little donut shop in an unremarkable strip mall. Inside, it is hiding one of the best donut shops I've ever visited - and I have a Homer Simpson Certification in Donutology. First, the one that everyone knows. Maple glazed bacon long john. Yep. It's true, and yep, it's pretty good - but don't let the flashy, well-known legend overshadow the other superstars in the case. First, one that I'm just going to go ahead and call the Samoa Donut, because it is cakey and thick, chocolaty, coconuty, and reminds me of Girl Scout Samoas. Or the light and fluffy glazed donut with espresso glaze, complete with little flecks of espresso beans. How about the Key Lime filled donut, complete with key lime pudding inside, and graham cracker crumbles on the inside? OR, the red velvet cake donut with cream cheese frosting? Tip: And I'm not saying this because I'm being a donut hipster and want to buck the mainstream, but while the maple glazed bacon long john is really good, the bacon can be a little much. It's good, and indulgent, but a little overly indulgent, if you get my drift here. You will absolutely love the coffee here, too. I was that tool of a customer that said, "I'm kind of craving a caramel latte like I'd get at Starbucks." The friendly barista said, "Got you covered. Give me a second." And it was better! Ample seating, free wifi, but take note, this probably isn't the type of place you'd want to come and park with your laptop, especially on weekends. It's a pretty busy place, with lots of folks wanting seats. Come in, do your thing, eat good food, check Yelp (wink) and Facebook on their wifi dime, then get outta Dodge. Lines are often pretty long, but don't be intimidated - I've never waited more than 5 minutes in the line, and again, free wifi makes it nice. My only tip for Yoyo? Put some darned tags on the front of your donut trays - it's really inconvenient for the customer (and the employees!) to have to guess at what types of donuts you have, and I'm sure the employees get sick of reciting what's in the case for every customer. Great place for weekend breakfast. They do have lunch, too, and ice cream in the summer, but I can't attest to the goodness of either...yet. read more

I kinda feel like a party pooper to be giving this place only 3 stars after all the 5 stars that ppl have given. First of all, I have to say that Im not a big donut fan so my review is solely based on my opinion. Why did I go to this place then if Im not even a donut fan? Well, I have heard my best friend mentioning this place to me for months. She told me that donuts here are just the best. Then when I saw the deal online (i think it was from crowdcut), I jumped right at it, and made my way to Yoyo on one Friday late morning with my bf. When we walked in, the place was pretty quiet. There was only one table with two ladies sipping drink and eating their donuts. We've never been to Yoyo before, so we had absolutely no idea what they had. The overly enthusiastic staff at the counter immediately greeted us, and asked us what we wanted. We were kinda blank .. as I said .. cos we've never been there before. We tried to look at the display case, and looked at the price board so that we could figure out what we wanted. She kept asking and asking if we wanted a couple of dozen donuts, if we wanted a mixed dozen, if we wanted any donuts for here, if we wanted any drinks, if we wanted her to pick anything for us to try, ........... (that was when i had to throw one star away .. sorry) Finally, we ordered a mix dozen, with a couple of longjohns to eat there. My bf got a latte, and i got mug of hot tea (mango green tea -- very good). My bf really liked his chocolate-glazed longjohn with bavarian-filled cream, but my longjohn with white glaze and raspberry-filled was REALLY sweet. It took me almost half an hour to finish it. The other star that I deducted was from the severely sweet glazing on the donut. From the mixed dozen that we got home, I enjoyed the original, the apple fritters, and the cinnamon cos they didnt have any white or chocolate glazing. My bf had to take care of all the donuts with chocolate glazing that we got, cos I couldnt eat any. Overall, I do like the donuts there. If Im in the area, I might stop by again, but I dont think Ill go out of my way just to get the donuts over there. read more

These donuts are not a simple "flash in the pan" but rather edible works of art. Crave Bacon? Have a creamy-tender Long John with maple glaze,finished with a rasher of crisp smoked Bacon! Another work of art are donuts topped with various crushed cereals or cookies that look like something else. Example? Try a glazed donut topped with crushed Oreo's with colorful Gummy Worms seeming to emerge from the center hole, giving the effect of candy worms crawling out of a dirt mound. Come with an appetite for sweet goodness and a sense of humor. Great coffees too! A special start to the day to be sure! Caveat--when the goodies are gone, they are gone. Located in the strip center adjacent to Scoreboard. read more

The owners, Paul and Chris, are coffee snobs - and the customers get to reap the benefits of their refined taste buds. The result: an affordable cup of coffee that's quite possibly the greatest in town. (I pity the people who don't make it pass the Caribou one block to the south...) As far as the donuts, they come from their own family recipes (ask the management to hear the story, it is lovely) and are trans-fat free. They're light, fluffy, delicious,... what am I doing writing this review? I'm going to go grab another! (Yes, I'm writing this on their free wifi.) read more

Just amazing tase and presenation. I got Yo Yo donuts for my father's birthday instead of a cake. What a great idea. They were so good and everyone got to pick the kind they wanted. I ordered ahead and got to skip the line. I had to stop and look around because the whole store is remodled and looks so cute. I have to go back and eat there because I heard they have ice cream now. What an amazing place and the donuts are awesome. read more

YoYo, how I love you. Since September 13th, 2010 you have dominated my dreams filled with Maple Bacon Long Johns and Crème Brûlée raised donuts. Situated in a small strip mall near a large business park in the burbs, YoYo is not exactly where donut aficionados typically flock. But guess what, this family run shop is completely legit and nails the foundations that make a great donut what we all crave. Sure you can head to the trendy Lyn-Lake area of MSP for a circular breakfast or you could take a nice stroll out to the burbs and score something even better! I think you should be aware of my "credentials" before we move onto a review of the main squeeze. I'm a fan of everything from apple donuts at the orchard, warm beignets, and basically any yeast-based raised donut. Cake and filled long johns are not my favorites, but if they are outstanding of course I will make an exception. My favorite shops include Stan's Donuts in Chicago and your very own neighborhood YoYo. So what does YoYo have in store? Let's just say that the Maple Bacon Long John($2.29) is magical. Sure they didn't invent it or anything, but the execution is top notch. The bacon is real bacon and has flavor and crunch, the maple glaze is decadent, and the pastry itself is the right amount of puffy, buttery, oily awesomeness that is a perfect base. They of course have other awesome options with different cereals, oreos, espresso, and s'mores on top; all of which are fantastic in their own right. Other odds and ends you may be interested in knowing: 1.This is a kid/family haven, bring the family and don't worry about the sticky mess 2.They offer high end Kickapoo Coffee from Wisconsin but aren't going to make you a soy whip double sprinkles chai tea latte. 3.They offer lunch with gourmet hot dogs from 11-3M-Su for $3-5 and homemade ice cream for lunch and dinner. 4.Most donuts are $1-2.29; a dozen is pricey! 5.They will do corporate events, we have had a few hundred delivered to my office before! Downsides include the lack of proper signage in the display case, which can bring special havoc to those of us who are color bling but not flavor blind. Another thing they could improve on is more new flavors. In 2015 they introduced the Donut Of The Month/"DOTM", which I was thrilled about. I assumed that some of the more popular variants would become mainstays and maybe push out some of the array of less exciting options, instead they sadly come and go and disappear after a month. Bring back the Crème Brûlée! Donut or Doughnut; who am I to decide? Does it matter when the sweets are this epic?! read more

I took my two kids here for breakfast this morning (that doesn't make me a bad mom, right?!?!). Anyway, we walked in & were promptly greeted by a very friendly fellow who seemed to have an adoration for children because he literally walked around the counter, got down to their level & explained what each & every flavor of donut was! My kids thought this was the coolest thing on Earth, and I'll have to admit, it was quite cute! I knew what I was going to order way before we left the house - the Maple Glaze Bacon Long John. So finally the kids decided to order. One ordered a blueberry filled frosted donut and the other a cake donut with a cocoa puff topping - YUM! Originally I had ordered a few extra Maple Bacon Long Johns to share, but they were just soooo good that I had to eat them myself (shhh don't tell anyone!).... I will definitely be back! And soon! read more

YoYo Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Minnetonka, Minnesota

Consuming a maple glazed donut topped with bacon and accompanied with Dogwood coffee is a good start to any day. This place is a stone's throw from our domicile, thus my sneakers have stepped over their threshold a few times. Some might say a few times too many from the look of my belly. :( Customer service is always top notch. Coffee is delicious and not chock full of added sugar like Starbuck's. The donuts are always fresh. Go early, because the bacon maple glazed donuts go fast. Don't forget to bring a few extra doses of insulin. Sugar rush!!! BTW: This place is sandwiched between a Seattle Sutton (a weight loss/healthy eating organization) and a fitness center. It actually shares an entrance with Seattle Sutton. Yikes! read more

YoYo Donuts - Treats - Donuts Near Me - Minnetonka, Minnesota

These donuts are incredible. Perfect texture, perfect taste, everything. I typically stay in my realm of old fashioned, raised glazed, not super special choices but here..... I have two words for you... APPLE. FRITTER. Oh my god. I used to love apple fritters when I was younger and throughout the years, haven't really found great ones anywhere. But this is outstanding- the perfect glaze, great amount of chew, the apple pieces inside are like little pieces of apple pie filling. Just heavenly. Ok, moving on before I start drooling. I've noticed more places putting a variety of cereals on their donuts-so good. I'm a cereal fanatic and putting things like Cocoa Puffs on a donut is a treat. Thank you, YoYo. I usually only get a few donuts to go but I would like to grab a coffee and hang out in one of their cozy- looking chairs one of these days. I'm serious, at least go for an Apple Fritter :) read more

Do you live/work in the western suburbs and want to be the most popular person in your house/office for the day? Yoyo is your ticket to the show, my friend. Bask in the conditional love of your family and coworkers as they praise your intellect, wit, and charm...at least until they've devoured that maple bacon bar. With the Twin Cities being a bastion of delicious donut shops (seriously, having just moved to KC, consider yourself lucky Minneapolisites), you might be asking what differentiates Yoyo from the rest of the upper echelon (i.e. Glam Doll, Bogart's, Mojo Monkey, Angel Food, Baker's Wife). You should most definitely hit up YoYo if: 1. You want the best maple bacon bar in town (in the running for best donut in town, period). 2. You live or work in the western suburbs and want donuts comparable to what you can get Downtown, Uptown, etc (although, Yoyo is also worth the drive if you have the time). 3. You want the friendliest donut service in the Cities in a non-cramped space. There's a time and place for cramped, hipster hole-in-the-walls and brash service, but if you're looking for a relaxing space to sip on some coffee and eat some holey pastries delivered with a smile, this is your place. 4. You want to pay (at least slightly) less than $2-$3 per donut. 5. MAPLE BACON BAR Yoyo does a more than admirable job repping Minneapolis donut glory in the western burbs and should be included on any self-respecting donut connoisseur's TC crawl. read more

How strongly do I believe that YoYo Donuts are the best donuts? Instead of a wedding cake at our wedding, we had YoYo Donuts. Yep, seriously. That's how spot-on these donuts are. YoYo has donuts for those out-of-the-box, I want candy and chocolate and marshmallows and bacon covering every ounce of my donut, donut lovers. YoYo has donuts for the classic Janes and Jons who seek that airy and fresh dough with a perfect medley of cinnamon and nutmeg, donut lovers. On my first visit to a new donut shop, I always order a raised glazed donut so I can really taste it because seriously, you can make anything taste good by smearing it in maple glaze and bacon; this YoYo donut recipe is unbeatable. I have yet to find a donut as delicious as the YoYo donut. It's perfection and their bright, happy eat-in atmosphere is the cherry on top. read more

Incredibly frustrated and disappointed, completely lost our custom order I put in weeks ahead of time after going through it in detail on the phone. Got a call a week before the party saying they lost the date for my order. I called back and left a message with the date and my contact information and never heard from them again. Went to pick up on the expected date and they couldn't even find our invoice for a while. Finally found it, but had never made the order. So upsetting and unprofessional and really offered little for their mistake. Thanks for disappointing my 8 year old for her birthday. read more

I'm not going to lie, I'm pretty surprised by the number of 5 star reviews here. Are these very good, serviceable donuts that will get the job done? Absolutely. Were they deserving of our friends hyping them for months? Sadly, I would say no. As our other friend who is more realistic commented, these are akin to a high quality grocery store donut. They will satisfy your craving and get the job done, but if I had a friend visiting and wanting to try the best donuts in the Twin Cities, this would not be the first place I'd take them, and frankly I wouldn't put them in my top 5. read more
