Customer Reviews

We made an effort to try all of the little donut stores around south Lubbock so we could make a good comparison. Benjamin Donuts came out on top. They have a thicker glaze on all their donuts. They are so generous with the add-on filling/toppings. Their cake donuts are (???????chef's kiss). Although we only officially compared donuts, their Korean burritos were so delicious. And the croissants were perfectly made. No soggy bottoms, perfectly crisp bacon, generous size, perfection.

Last year my mom had came here and got me the bulgogi burrito because I can't eat doughnuts. Because they make me sick. I came again. Still amazing. Their salsa Verde is also extremely good. If their salsa Verde is made in house its absolutely fantastic.

They have gluten free cakes in different frosting showed in the showcase of spudnuts... Spudnuts donuts is made of potato flour. They sell Korean burritos and breakfast burritos with home made hot sauce.. also sell it in jars.... Some of the menu items have to be preorders in or a call in orders for large amounts on the items on pepperoni pizzas or any Korean bakery items...

I prefer this donut shop as they make the regular plain glazed donuts with potato flour rather than wheat flour. Spudnuts used to be sold in my hometown of Brownfield and they are a childhood favorite of mine and these are just as good and bring back fond memories. Highly recommended! The staff here is always very friendly!

This place is amazing. I live in Colorado but I like to visit the Lubbock area and this will definitely be my go to donut shop. They have my favorite donuts with the small crunchy sprinkles, chocolate iced donut holes and amazing kolaches. They?re all priced so well. The employees are also so sweet! I would give higher than 5 stars if I could :)

Best doughnuts ever. Perfect texture. Not too light and not too heavy ??

Great, locally owned donut shop which also has kolaches and croissant sandwiches. My husband and I stopped in to bring home some donuts and ended up staying for lunch! The shop was a playground for the senses! We tried the chicken kolaches which were very good and oh so fresh as was everything. The Bavarian cream was the best I have had since coming to Lubbock and filled when ordered. What a treat! I got the last maple-bacon donut to take home and it was wonderful! Give this new business a try, you won't

The breakfast burritos were amazing and the service was 10/10 we came not long before closing and didn?t even feel rushed. I think it is a family running it and the son was so kind and even gave us a ramen packet to try with our kimchi. I love their donut holes

Fun doughnut shop, where they fill the puff doughnuts right in front of you. Great flavors and very friendly staff. Enjoyed dine in as well

Stopped in on a whim. Friendly service, great donuts. Found my local sweet treat. ??

My boss got them for us the first time. Then I ended up going myself on the weekend. Favorite place in lubbock to get donuts

Donuts were super soft yet had a nice crunch from the glaze. The donuts also had the perfect sweetness. Amazing donuts!!! ??

What a great breakfast burrito. Too big for me so I shared. And I gat a small taste of my daughters Cinnamon Roll and had to buy my own. Service with a smile. I'll be back.

My new favorite donut shop. Very friendly staff!

The best donuts I have ever had! Trust me. I would say these are similar in sweetness to KK, but they have way more substance to them. You feel like you've actually eaten something when you're done, instead of it just disintegrating. Find pleasure in "the chew" of these hearty, sweet and satisfying treats. If anyone would like me to write a food column, I'd love to!

Quick service, very nice employees, and very cheap I would definitely recommend

Heard it on line they have the best hot sauce so I had to buy a jar. It is absolutely the best hot sauce I've ever had. It's not hot I'm not sure if they make a hotter version but the flavor is fantastic!! Also, their apple fritter have real actual apple chunks. I wish it was warmed but wow amazing stuff!!

Best burritos and donuts in town! They even have my dog some donut holes! Highly recommend

Great selection; there were many variants/flavors here that I haven't seen at other stores. The staff was very friendly and willing to answer questions about the food items. The woman who served us smiled the whole time and was polite. We enjoyed all of the items we got and agreed that we would definitely return. I prefer Benjamin's to most of the donut shops in town, I highly recommend checking them out.

This place is THE BEST donut place in Lubbock. The prices are fair, the selection is great and the staff, I would love to adopt them as my grandparents. My daughter was craving for a sprinkled donut which they didn't have and the lady taking care of us promptly offer to make her one from scratch. Daughter decided to get a cinnamon roll so the lady wouldn't go to the trouble though. The roll was massive and sooo tasty! I went for the jaeyuk burrito, 100% authentic Korean and so delicious! Their iced coffee i

The location is a great location to my home and we were very happy the first time we went. Pros: the donuts are pretty good. They?re fluffy and the kids really like the different icing flavorings. There are lots of options to choose from and other items such as croissants and sandwiches. Cons: No masks. I was super surprised to see that you?re not wearing masks today. We won?t be back because of this alone. The man who helped with my order today was very inattentive, didn?t say anything to me but tell me

Best maple donuts in town, and trust me, I?ve tried them all! Add bacon?and it?s HEAVEN! ??????

I love this place! It's my new favorite donut place in Lubbock. The green tea frosting is such a wonderful change of pace, the strawberry cream tastes like real strawberries, and that bulgogi burrito. It's simply delicious. I can't wait to try more things there!

My family shared cinnamon twists, apple fritters and spudnuts and all were delicious. They were light and perfectly cooked. The coffee was bold and rich (perfect for dunking). I was so impressed, I ordered 7 dozen spudnuts for my classes at Tech. The owners are amazing and there to make sure you're happy. We're anxious to try the rest of their menu.

One of the best in town! Huge selection of donuts, really friendly and kind workers, thank you so much for donuts from this Sunday. Blueberry cake was great, even the donut holes were amazing. Definitely will be back

This is now a mandatory 15min drive on Saturday mornings for my family. The best glazed donut I have ever had.

Their donuts are absolutely delicious!! They offer your traditional flavors, but also have some fun flavors to mix it up. Not to mention they are so nice and friendly!

I didn?t think this place would actually be any more special than the local donut shops here in LBK, but OH MY GOSH. It?s heavenly! I can say with 100% certainty that this is my absolute favorite donut shop I?ve ever been to. You can?t go wrong with any of the choices, honest!

They are always friendly when we come in. We love this place! They have really good donuts. If you wanna try something different, they have a korean beef bulgogi burrito that is soooo delicious! If donuts are your thing, there is a matcha donut that is light green in color that, again, is delicious. Go try all the different donuts and breakfast items they have, you won't be disappointed. If you're in a hurry, they have a drive-thru!

Open early bright smiles from staff and Awesome service!!! Thank y'all guys for the delicious breakfast and coffee, see y'all soon bright and early!!! Thank you again!!!

BEST doughnuts in town. Other doughnuts are stale within hours. Spudnuts.stay fresh for a couple of days. Their blueberry cake doughnuts are the bomb.

Spudnuts are a blast from the past. Yeast dough fries up so light and airy! I would lighten up on the glaze a little though, so I could taste more of the doughnut.

As a world donut connoisseur, I will admit these are by far the best donuts and kolaches in town. Staff is very friendly, and patient when I am scanning thru all the uniquely awesome options they offer. From cinnamon glaze (all time fav), to pistachio glazed....they have it all and more for great prices. Benjamin's is a little unknown, at least for me and the southwest side of town. I had never heard of it until I moved to Clapp Park area. Now it is the gold standard for donuts. I will not go anywhere else.

Donuts were just as I?d want a donut to be. They had a good selection of savory options. I got the mini pigs in a blanket and they were tasty.

The best donuts in Lubbock! I?ve seriously tried just about all of them and this place is seriously miles ahead of everyone else. The burritos are equally tasty. Don?t waste your time anywhere else, Benjamin Donuts is the place to go.

So delicious! Staff was super nice and the prices were amazing!

We go often but sometime get a cinnamon roll made size of regular donut instead of their standard cinnamon roll size in Plainview. Great place and friendly staff.

Courteous and professional, their donuts and other breakfast pastries are delightful! You must give them a chance if your out for donuts in Lubbock

The salon's prices are reasonable and offer great value for the quality of service they provide. I always leave feeling like I got more than my money's worth.

Really great place. They have anything you could imagine. You want a cake donut early in the morning this is the place. The people there are amazing and treat everyone amazingly as well.

I love this place. Fresh donuts fresh pigs in a blanket and the lady was really nice. Price is not bad either. Definitely recommend.

This place has the BEST donuts in town! Surprisingly their hot sauce is amazing too!!! Love love love this place.

Love these spudnuts! Flavored icings and fluffy donuts! Friendly servers and great food!

Best donuts in town!

Best donuts in Lubbock

Ate these too fast to get a picture of them! These are officially my favorite donuts in Lubbock. The old-fashioned cake donut was unbelievably soft with just enough crunch on the outside, and the yeast donuts had a delightful chew from the potato flour. For fans of cinnamon like myself, they do not skimp out on the amount of cinnamon on their donuts like most places! The maple glaze was also amazing? darker in color than most I've had, with a strong maple flavor (instead of tasting like a lot of sugar with
