Captain Baker Donut Shop is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth. We tried the blueberry muffin, s?mores, and peanut butter and jelly donuts?each one was absolutely delicious. The flavors were creative, well-balanced, and made fresh! We also grabbed a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on a Portuguese muffin, and it was perfection?crispy, warm, and flavorful with that soft, slightly chewy muffin that tied it all together. One of the coolest parts? You can customize your own donuts with different glazes
Always an amazing experience here, the breakfast sandwiches are great. The iced coffee is nice, lots of options too for the coffees. Donuts are perfect, one of the best donuts on cape
Quaint shop with good breakfast sandwiches and donuts. Donuts are a cakey texture not fried and fluffy. Sweet and delicious, sweetly decorated.
This adorable donut shop is a MUST GO TO! Well organized display of donuts upon arrival (great visual for kids deciding and hey- adults too!). Got our coffee with ease at the second counter and quickly had our donuts in hand and snagged a nice spot in the back yard area. Happy staff and clean atmosphere. Stop into the cutie boutique in the back because supporting small business is so important! Will always stop in when I?m Cape Cod!
Delicious old fashioned donuts made to order. The perfect amount of crisp on the outside while soft inside. I?m blown away by how many fun options they always have. Even the coffee flavors were very appealing. I recently tried a breakfast sandwich on a bagel and wow was I impressed. I would go out of my way to get back there for another. 10/10 on quality and service.
This place is awesome! We had them do donuts for our wedding dessert and I am so happy with our choice!! We spoke with Lauren to plan everything and she was super friendly and helpful. We went with apple cider cinnamon, holy cannoli, french toast, and pumpkin spice latte. We also rented the donut wall from them which looked fantastic. Donuts were delicious and we got so many compliments on them! I'm so glad we found Captain Baker Donut Shop and now we have a new breakfast spot to visit our next times out
Loved the donuts, the service and the location. When we walked in, we saw speedracks full of donuts. I tried the sweet n spicy donuts which featured pineapple glaze and a spicy kick (see photos for donuts specs). Awesome spot. Will return next year, highly recommend.
If you love homemade breakfast sammies this is the place. They also have dozens of donut topping choices all made to order so you know they are fresh. We just love coming here.
Captain Baker Donuts in West Dennis has quickly become a delightful summer tradition for our Cape Cod family vacations. The staff is friendly, efficient, and the shop has a welcoming atmosphere that makes every visit enjoyable. Their selection of donuts is impressive, but one particular treat stands out - the Cape Shark. Topped with a gummy shark, it's not only visually entertaining but also absolutely delicious. The dough is light and fluffy, perfectly complemented by their rich and creamy icing. So if y
A must stop if you are in town! The donuts were creative, delicious and beautiful to look at. Biting into the pink lemonade was pure joy. My 6 year old said to give it 200 stars. My 7 year old thought it was so cool to create his own donut by choosing the donut, glaze, topping and drizzle. You can watch them creating the donut masterpieces, which the kids and I loved. There?s a cute area in the back to sit and a little donut theme gift shop. The staff was super sweet too!
The donuts are nice and crispy. They have a lot of flavor to them and they make them in front of you. They can be a little pricey for what your getting, but they also offer an amazing number of choices including the specialty menu of donuts. You can even create your own donut. They also have a selection of coffee which I didn't try but it smelled good and their barista was friendly. I would go back there again but their prices would limit my frequency.
Expensive, heavy, and too sweet. You can choose from a large variety of different flavored donuts or you can simply customize each and every one of your toppings to create a unique donut that's made just for you. The donuts are a heavy, cake-like texture, and the toppings are coyingly sweet. They are also very expensive, donuts are $3.?? each or $32.?? for a dozen. If you prefer your donuts light & airy, like I do, then this is not the place for you.
Loved this place! I really appreciated the gluten free options, friendly, and accommodating staff. Cute building and everything was fresh and well prepared. Thank you for looking out for the gf community!
Honestly the best donuts on Cape. They make them fresh to order! My husband and I both got iced coffee today, a streusel flavor and it was out of this world. We also got breakfast sandwiches and they really were spectacular. VERY highly recommend.
This really is the cutest donut shop ever!! They have customizable donuts and their special donuts are wicked cute and tasty! Definitely worth coming here over Dunkin, support local businesses!! Also their cold brew made just black, nothing in it, tastes really good actually ??
The donuts are artfully made and completely delicious. We also deeply appreciated the availability of gluten free, vegan donuts that made it a wonderful breakfast for every member of our family ??. Thank you
Great little donut shop where all of your donuts are made to order while you wait. Not only are the donuts delicious, but the grandkids love watching their favorite donut being made. It can get very busy during the summer, but the line moves quickly, and it's definitely worth the wait!
Cute little doughnut and coffee cafe. On the pricey side. Went for apple cider doughnuts, wasn't the best. On the dry side. Didn't have a strong apple cider flavor, only tasted the sugar on top. Kind of disappointed they didn't have hot apple cider. Their house brewed coffee was great! We ordered breakfast sandwiches which were tasty, but pricey. Definitely worth it to check out but we probably wouldn't visit again.
Very cool that you can customize your donuts! Super unique and they were pretty good too. Cute atmosphere and friendly staff, I?m glad I stopped by!
A great experience and even better donuts! Fresh, homemade donuts that you can customize and build your own! Choose the old fashion or chocolate, pick your glaze, your toppings and finish with your choice of drizzle. They have premade varieties like Boston Cream and Jelly as well if you prefer the classics. Definitely worth checking out!
The donuts here are AMAZING. I never thought that the PB&J donut would be my favorite but it was easily a 10/10 donut and I?ll be coming back for it ASAP. Other favorites were the Italiano and the Crumb Cake (also didn?t expect these to be my favorite but they were awesome). But every single donut we had was ridiculously yummy. Great people, great FRESH donuts, must visit.
It?s like an ice cream bar, but for donuts. They bake the donuts fresh, and then you can pick the toppings. Most are generic frostings or candy. The donuts them selves taste like Dunkin? Donuts, which is not a bad thing if you are a new Englander! It was very crowded for a Sunday morning but they have a good system and the line goes fast. Lots of families and little kids. It?s a fun place and a good concept. We got the shark attack donut (blueberry frosting with grape jelly and a shark gummy), Whoopi pie d
Delicious donuts, went with classic chocolate glazed, maple bacon, jelly and apple fritter! Beautiful shop. Glad we made the trip while in Dennis!
I love the idea of creating your own donut. We did not do that on this trip. We tried a couple of from their list along with an egg sandwich. If you have children or love donuts- you have to go.
We stopped at Captain Baker on our way to the Nantucket ferry and were not disappointed. This shop is so cute! They have a great selection of fancy donuts, as well as a few staples. Like many places, they make the same delicious fried donuts and top them right in front of you. We were amped to try this place and I am more than happy to write a positive review. Their selection changes but they have many great summer-y flavored donuts right now, like "Sunny Summer" w/ lemon glaze + coconut flakes, and "Blue
Goto place for great donuts. LOTS of varieties all custom made (decorated). Good coffee.
Donuts are great! A good crisp on the outside and soft and lite cakeiness inside! Old fashioned is on point and so is the apple cider, best we had in a long time! My only personal opinion would be wish the lemon curd was more lemony not as sweet.
Quiet little place off of rt 28 like it very much
What an awesome little donut shop!! They have a wonderful selection of unique donuts and they even have a "make your own" option where you can construct the donut you want! My husband got their sweet and spicy donut, my daughter got the cookie monster and I got their GF old fashioned with lemon glaze and strawberry drizzle. They were delicious! Their iced coffee was tasty too! The service was fast and friendly! I can see why this place is packed every morning! Highly recommend!
Nice little shop but not for my tastes..too much emphasis on toppings,drizzle,icing and other confections. I enjoy a good cake donut in it's simplicity-an old fashioned ,blue berry cake.with.maybe some coconut or peanut crumbles. The apple cider donut was lacking flavor and density for me. If I want an airy donut give me a raised/glazed donut .the bagel sandwich tasted good but the cinnamon raisin bagel was soft and mushy like a piece of white bread-totally collapsed and was not up to being sandwich. Again
Finally, I got to Dennis to enjoy these delicious and creative donuts. There were so many choices, it was really hard to decide l. Grabbed a yummy iced coffee, too.
My kids love it we come very weekend. They have a huge iced coffee bar with blueberry cold brew ??
Best place for a quick breakfast. No matter how busy it gets the staff keeps the line moving. The donuts are amazing and its fun to be able to customize your own. The blueberry coffee is our favorite and its by far the best coffee in the area. Prices are super reasonable. Parking is a little rough but its so worth it!
I was really disappointed with my recent purchase of gluten-free donuts from Captain Baker. I bought five different donuts ($5-$6 each) to share with my family, but when I received them, they were frozen. While I understand that freezing can help maintain freshness, it was frustrating not to be able to try them before ordering several. Unfortunately, the donuts did not live up to expectations. We all agreed they had a distinctly unpleasant, chemically aftertaste, which overshadowed any potential enjoyment.
Donuts were inventive and tasty. On the unfortunate downside, 3 of the 12 I carefully had chosen were actually not at all what I ordered once i looked at home. Also, the young lady preparing the donuts continuously wiped her nose without the thought of changing her gloves, and. finally, the cream/ milk for the iced coffee had gone bad. It was an unpleasant first visit after passing by for months.
Super cool shop with unique donut offerings, including an ala carte style create your own donut menu. Or you may choose from a selection of creativity crafted example donuts on display. Each of the specialty donuts is put together by hand and served in an individual box. Super impressive and delicious! Also serves breakfast sandwiches and quality coffee.
Freshly made and customizable donuts. The best breakfast sandwiches and coffee I?ve ever had on cape. Excellent service too.
Breakfast sandwiches were very good, coffee was large, special donuts were great, customized donut was a welcome surprise and everyone was friendly. Outdoor seating was great, gift shop is cute. We'll be back
Donuts look fun but I can?t say the same thing to the taste. Just bad
as I drive by this location all the time decide to finally stop and get some donuts, I bought a dozen donuts and large Iced coffe and it cost me $49.46 which was Outrageous. first off the girl making the donuts had a cold and was sniffling and wiping her nose with her gloves on and didn't even change them. I was Disgusted and on top of it a got a coffee which they make you go outside in the back of the store were they keep coffee out on a HOT Patio ! with milk and cream sitting out in the sunny back yard
This place deserves all of the love and business. My daughter, who is every bit as stubborn as I am, decided she wanted a certain donut. We ordered, sat down and then she decided that she wanted a different kind. The owner heard her crying about the donuts, came over, and asked her which one she wanted and brought her another donut. That is phenomenal customer service! Cheers from buffalo!
Order one of Captain Bakers own delicious creations or customize your own. These donuts are worth stopping for. The staff is friendly and helpful. Gift shop in the back of the property is worth a look too.
The bagels were absolutely delicious and then you add those AMAZING donuts...WOW, SO GOOD!! A definite must try!!
My vegan radar went off and we pulled into Captain Bakers donuts. I wish we hadn't. We bought two vegan donuts. They were tiny. Very, very tiny. They came individually wrapped in plastic, and guess what, tasted like plastic. Unfortunately they just weren't good. The dough was off, the frosting was off (were they frozen before? Maybe). They cost us $11. These were the vegan donuts by Nicole. There were 2-3 other vegan bakers so maybe those were better. I don't know. I'm not going back to find out. A truly di
fun place in a cute location. we got the fluffernutter and it was cakey that was generously topped with fluff and pb. there was a line but it went fast. it says ?masks preferred? on the door but none of the employees were wearing masks which i found odd given that they are one of the few establishments that have any signage about masks.
This place was fantastic. To start it was very busy, but not in a terrible way, for 9am on a Monday. Which speaks volumes to their desirability. Even though it was so busy our wait to be served and receive out donuts and coffee was exceptionally quick. Very delightful. The donuts themselves were very very good. We got a half dozen with a few different kinds and all were good. We even were able to design our own from a large list of different glazes and toppings. Never had that option before and it allowed m
Really cute place got here as soon as they opened. Just beat the line that was very lengthy, The donuts were wicked fresh they make them while you wait.
Always a great place to visit! Excellent donuts and breakfast sandwiches. Friendly staff!
Funny how something can be so close to where you live and yet we just discovered this shop. We live 2 towns over. Wonderful donut shop. Great aesthetic. Very Family friendly. I could see us going several times a year with out-of-town visitors and on special occasions. Fairly priced. Only downside was that I ate 4 donuts.
I wasn't clear on the gf donut options and the staff's response was a bit dismissive. I ended up getting the donut I didn't want but it was good. Nice atmosphere but would have like a little more patience and explanation.
Delicious doughnuts with great atmosphere. Gluten free doughnuts available! Small amount of seating out back and a separate little gift shop with cool stuff. Great find. Will be back!
Great spot! You can fully customize your toppings! This is the place to go if you love icing, sugar and sweets - donuts are very heavy on the toppings. Extra indulgent: breakfast sandwich ON a donut. Nice outdoor seating behind the shop.
The donut was very tasty. We went there because they advertised gluten free doughnuts. Unfortunately, it was a pre packaged donut. It was very small and pricey. It was quite a bit of wait to get your donut made.
Visited on July 5 - place was rocking! Staff was friendly, quick working and efficient. Donuts were all dressed/ decorated to order and were DELICIOUS! We will definitely be back. Sadly, no photos as we ate them too quickly! ??
this place is absolutely adorable, their advertising and marketing is genius. they make it look fancy and spectacular. the donuts look amazing and are decorated well, but do not taste homemade. they are like packaged plain donuts from the grocery store. the toppings are good but also looked packaged. the only thing I would say it fresh is the decoration and topping. I paid 20$ for six donuts and they were not as good as I expected.
This donut shop is amazing!! Family owned, and you can tell how much love and care is put into this business! The donuts taste amazing, as well as the breakfast sandwiches!! Always so fresh and made to order! I love supporting local and small businesses that care! Would recommend this shop to anyone!
Best coffee around and sandwiches absolutely gas, donuts are delicious too if you?re into that. 5 stars!!!!
the place was really cute and everyone was nice but the gluten free donut is horribly dry. comparable to the sahara desert. the regular donuts are similarly bland and void of moisture. ALSO extremely expensive.
In Dennis on vacation and made it a point to to check out this place we found online. We were impressed beyond our expectations. The breakfast sandwiches were cooked to perfection. The star of the show is the donut assortment. They have numerous unique donuts, the West Dennis Beach and Italiano spring to mind...but your ability to create custom donuts is amazing. Do not pass up a chance to go here, you will not be disappointed+
Stopped here on the way home from Provincetown. Ordered one of their breakfast sandwiches, iced coffee and several donuts. Everything was amazing and the service was incredible. Highly recommend!
This was the perfect breakfast to end our wonderful week on the Cape. We were honored to be part of Captain Baker's Donut Shop's opening day. It was truly an experience to see the custom donuts created before our eyes. We ordered coffee, specialty, as well as custom donuts, plus egg sandwiches. Everything was delicious, but the donuts were an experience in and of themselves! Just melt in your mouth delicious. We look forward to going back!
Fantastic. A small shop which gets crowded easy, but for a good reason. The service was great and the food was phenomenal. We ordered breakfast sandwiches, donuts, and their cold brew coffee and everything got top marks. A really creative shop with the custom donuts. We were there on vacation, but it's almost worth the 4 hour drive each way just to go back there alone.
Their donuts are great, customizable so you can get just what you want. My favorite thing to get there is actually the breakfast sandwich. They have bagels or Portuguese muffins (similar to an English muffin but softer), I get my breakfast sandwich on the Portuguese muffin and it?s really really tasty and just a bit different from what you get everywhere else. Their prices are really reasonable and they have a great outdoor seating area!
Came down a couple of times this summer to Dennisport. Each time I saw this shop, and was looking forward to trying Captain Baker's Donuts. Well the third time down this summer I was lucky enough to try this place on its opening weekend. Donuts were delicious, tried some that were custom crafted and they were amazing. Matter of fact all the donuts were delicious. Definitely, going to be a regular place to go when my family is in town. I appreciate the staff's hard work and attention to detail. Lovely
Best donuts I've ever had by far. Everything is made fresh to order so my donuts were still warm even after I drove home. Their precautions against COVID-19 are top notch and their system just works. Their prices are really reasonable for the quality that you're getting. My only negative is their parking lot wasn't the most organized but it was easy enough to figure out.
Worth the wait! Excellent donuts and coffee, and great service! They had staff outside greeting everyone, passing out order forms, answering questions, and thanking everyone for their patience as they worked through some opening day kinks. The make-your-own donut is a great idea, with so many options. They even have a woof window out back, so you can bring your dog along and order outside. We definitely recommend visiting the Captain Baker Donut Shop for breakfast!
The place is dangerous, can get a custom donut with whatever toppings, frosting, glaze that you want. Also a large assortment of iced coffees. I tried blueberry and coconut. Both weirdly delicious. There is a gift shop in the small house out back and a garden/backyard with outdoor seating. Glad I don't live nearby or I would keep coming back and eating at too many donuts.
Very nice people. Beautiful shop. Huge variety. Terrible donuts. I can?t speak to their other items but it was just one flavor of donut with toppings. I tried four varieties. The pastry cream in the Boston Cream and the raspberry drizzle were yummy. Everything else just has no flavor. The donuts didn?t even seem fresh. Such a disappointment.
This cute little shop is worth the wait! Owner and staff are very friendly and hardworking during the busy summer months. The donuts and breakfast sandwiches are fabulous. Will be back. Thank you staff for your hard work!
Inexpensive, high-quality, custom specialty donuts... An excellent bargain. I would have liked some plastic plates and fork/knife for eating in. Still five stars because this place is underrated and over the top. Wonderful.
Amazing donuts! Wish we would have found this place on the first day of our trip.
What a great experience! Custom-made donuts made right in front of you in an 1884 carriage House, locally sourced food for the ingredients as well as coffee and breakfast sandwiches. You can even design your own custom donuts. What a great place!
This is across the street from my house and it gets very busy. The small space is tough but the amazing friendly service and quality food make it worth it. Day old donuts are discounted and still just as good! A gem on 28. No other place like it.
It's a fun donut shop with lots of specialty donuts. The actual donuts had a bit of lemony flavor to the bread part which didn't go over well with a few of us. But the others didn't notice so it may have been just those ones. Coffee was delicious.
My favorite donut shop! I have been spending the last year or so trying local donut shops in Massachusetts, and Captain Bakers is #1 in my opinion! Not only are the donuts absolutely delicious, but the staff is so friendly as well and it is always a pleasant experience even when it?s super crowded (:
Great breakfast sandwiches and donuts!! Beautiful shop, high quality food and great coffee. I definitely recommend coming! It's our new go-to coffee run on the Cape!
Great staff and the doughnuts are delicious. ?? I recommend the Italiano or Sunny Summer.
I've been drinking coldbrew with nothing in it for a few years now. Dunkin and Starbuck's coldbrew typically taste burnt and nasty. We came here to try the donuts but I thought to grab a medium coldbrew for the road. Hands down the BEST coldbrew I've ever had. Happily came back the next day for a large coldbrew instead. The donuts were really good too (and breakfast sandwiches). They have the sipping lids for their coldbrew/iced coffees for small and medium cups. If you could get some sipping lids for the
These donuts are delish. They have a great selection and you are able to choose your own toppings and fillings. Our donuts were warm and fresh. The staff were super friendly.
Quite possibly the best cold brew I have ever had. Donuts are good, 20-ish flavors. Vegan donuts are good, 6 flavors
Not impressed. Rude cashier. Pistachio coffee did not taste like Pistachio. Won't go back. Definitely not worth 16 bucks.
Outstanding donuts. Brought a variety as a dessert to a dinner and they were a smash.
Donut heaven is here! Brought my son who made a "build a donnut" and was in absolute awe that there is a way to make his "dream donnut"! Delicious coffee friendly and fast service makes this an amazing experience!
Hot and fresh donuts with endless toppings. Great family and dog friendly shop. Such a great addition to Dennis! My husband also loves the breakfast sandwiches and coffee.
Love this little donut place! Everyone is super nice and they have very creative donuts. I like bringing my kids here
Excellent freshly made donuts to your taste. Many unique options to choose from.
Captain Baker?s Donuts are delicious. They make simple egg sandwiches for breakfast as well that are tasty but not necessarily award winning. The donuts is what the place is about and as far as that goes, YUM.
Such a neat place! Donuts were amazingly tasty, and I've never been to a donut shop that allowed you to create your own donut with glazes and toppings. Great place!
