Customer Reviews

I eat gluten free cuz it causes bad headaches and my body hurts like I have the flu & it causes belly issues for my daughter. I was in Columbus to meet a friend and googled gluten free bakery and this placed popped up. The staff member was very nice and helpful, explaining what was gluten free and preparation. I ordered 1/2 dozen donuts with various toppings. I got to my daughter's to share and on 1st bite our eyes grew wide and we both said "they aren't dense! They are light & airy!" They were sooo delicio

After reading through some of the reviews, I'm honestly not sure why someone would leave one star on a place that has some of the tastiest donuts we've ever had! We tried a half dozen which were priced very reasonable, some were very unique so we went out of our comfort zone to try different ones including "The Mitch" topped with bacon. All six were made to order and very fresh! I would highly recommend trying different ones. Donna was just leaving the shop when we arrived and greeted us very politely, th

First time ordering here. I normally get my custom donuts from Amy?s! I?m impressed! Only thing is the donuts are a lot smaller than a normal donut. The donuts were fresh. Warm and I even had them delivered!

My family and I decided to support a locally grown business! We visited "DONNA'S DELICIOUS DONUTS" yesterday ??, June 8th, in honor of my mother's Heavenly Birthday. Their donuts were made fresh to order, and we chose to build one of our own. The experience was great, as well as the service and atmosphere! (I was hoping to meet Mrs. Donna, but she was off that Saturday, as I went to high school with a couple of her brothers! ) The donut flavors were all amazing. We just found a new donut shop to frequent!

10/10, absolutely heavenly! I had no business going to Donna's for a half dozen donuts but I'm sure glad I did! It is like a combination of a cake and a traditional fried donut and man is it worth a trip out of your way to try! I tried 6 different donuts and they were all out of this world! I wish I'd tried the GF but I forgot to order one. The staff was also great. They were super slammed when I was there because it was national donut day and even though they were going as fast as they could and an extr

I want to love this place, truly. The donuts are good but the limitations placed on the ordering process and no variations offered on customs donuts really put a damper on it. The business model really discourages walk ins, it?s a push to order online, you can?t even view the menu without setting a date and time to pick up. The ordering process itself is ok, but when you go to make a custom donut it?s so limited. Only one type or icing or glaze, you can?t combine or choose extra for amount, some topping cho

Doughnuts were hot , fresh, and made with love. Employees were friendly, and the place was clean and inviting. Only complaint , doughnuts were stacked so all the frosting ran together. Fruity Pebble is not a good mix with Turtle. Other than that it was a good experience

Holy crap this place has amazing donuts. They fry them right in front of you and top them with all kinds of wonderful treats. I've eaten thousands of donuts in my life. These are the best. Hands down, no doubt, unquestionably the best donuts I've ever had. And the ladies working there gave me great service. They helped me pick out my donuts as there is quite a list, and it can be overwhelming on your first visit. I ordered the raspberry beret and the honey blue donuts. In the words of the great Jim Ross,

As soon as I walked in I was greeted by 3 friendly faces and a mouth watering aroma. So many amazing flavors and options to choose from. Very patient and knowledgeable staff while I circled around the menu for a few minutes. I got half a dozen one of each and as I?m foundering on the s'mores doughnut for a late night snack writing this I?ve realized it?s time for another trip. Each one was made to perfection, and the price was beyond reasonable.

We ordered a surprise bag from Too Good to Go. Donna's canceled the order unilaterally half a day before the scheduled pick up time because they were having a better day than expected. This is bad business behavior because they can just keep doing this when the store is busy and take advantage of the customers on the app only when they have leftovers. We were excited to try their donuts but we will not order from them again.

Very quiet when we went so we were served quickly. Donuts came out so nice and warm! Only thing is with eating the donut so fresh I couldn't taste the chocolate icing over the donut but having it separately tasted great!

10/10 First-time customer here, and I?m thoroughly impressed! The only minor issue I noticed is that the donuts are quite smaller compared to regular donuts. However, I don?t mind this at all and think it?s a great aspect of the donuts. They were fresh, warm, and delicious. I?ve had the pleasure of eating countless donuts throughout my life, but these are undoubtedly the best I?ve ever had. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is welcoming and inviting. My family raved about the cake donut

Amazing, made-to-order donuts! They were super fresh, warm, and they melt in your mouth. We got the fruity pebbles, honey blue, and The Mitch and loved them all! They serve Crimson Cup coffee which is also a favorite. Highly recommend!

Wasn't too busy but took a long time for 4 donuts to be made. People who came in after us were done first. Smell inside shop a bit overwhelming. Long John is still a cake donut with a small amount of icing injected. Sweet but no flavor. Donuts were crisp but a bit heavy ok but not my favorite. Staff was friendly. $12 for 3 was very pricy.

Donuts are good. In my opinion they taste exactly like Duck Donuts. I also ordered a mocha and it wasn't worth the price. After ordering we had to wait about 15 minutes for our order to be ready. Not overly long for a made to order place but don't stop by if you're in a rush.

All in all the donuts were fantastic. They were hot, fresh, and had a really pleasant amount of moisture while still being crisp on the outside. It was about 25 dollars for a dozen donuts. We decided it was definitely worth the price. I think the peanut butter was my favorite. My wife and kid loved the raspberry and the blueberry lemon. My oldest freaked out for The Mitch, and it was quite tasty My wife enjoyed the turtlez as well. We will definitely be going back, everything is made fresh, be prepared for

Donna's Delicious Donuts makes some delicious donuts... it is in the strip center just nort of the home depot. I was impressed with how busy they were and the innovation of ordering the donuts on line before. The donuts were fresh and really good. I especially liked the fresh strawberry - I have never had fresh fruit on a donut before. It is well worth a try...

The donuts are always fresh and warm. The best donuts I?ve had since moving to the city. Definitely my new favorite donut shop :)

Seriously the best doughnuts! Well worth the 30 minute drive for us.

First time grabbing donuts from Donna's Delicious Dozen. Was not disappointed. Ended up getting a half dozen donuts. I had the staff pick their favorites. Loved the warm donuts and the fun flavors, will be back for sure.

Absolutely delicious donuts!! We came here for the gluten free donuts and were so excited how good they tasted!! The staff was so sweet!! Some of the best gluten free donuts I?ve had!! They are even fried which is rare! Highly recommend these!

I got 6 donuts (Oreo, fruity pebbles, powdered cinnamon, smore, and Reese's) and 2 bottled beverages for about $18. All of the donuts were amazing but my favorite is the Reese's because I love chocolate. Underrated donut shop

We used Donna?s Donut Food Truck for my son?s graduation party and it was a huge success! The donuts were made on site and were warm and delicious. We loved having them be a part of our celebration and would highly recommend Donna?s Donuts!

My place of employment got us these donuts for employee appreciation. These are absolutely wonderful! The frosting was light and enjoyable. Will be getting these again when I?m in the area!

Stopped by after seeing the donut truck in the parking lot. Donna was super sweet and the staff was working hard. They were filling a lot orders (busy Saturday morning) but still had time to cater to our questions since we just dropped in without ordering ahead. We purchased a Favorite's Dozen. Each of our family members liked something different and everything was fresh. While the toppings create the individual flavors, the real winner is the actual donut. It's a perfect base to add on to. My advice

We preordered our doughnuts for pick up. We have learned from experience, they make them fresh when you order, so it may take longer if you order on location. The doughnuts we ordered were impeccable! The staff was great! The inside was clean, but it seemed a bit empty, for sitting.

I found this little gem by accident this morning. WOW. The staff was super friendly. The smell of sweets hit me in the face the moment I walked in the door. But the donuts. Hot, made to order. 10 out of 10. Gotta be my new Sunday Go To.

There website said open! Drove 35 minutes to get there and when I arrived they said they were not taking walk ins! And we?re only fulfilling online orders. Only two people working on a mother?s day. Absolutely rediculous! I will never go back considering there is no promise this won?t happen again. When going online to make an order they said you can?t pick up until after 3:00!!!!! Dissappointed is an understatement. Very poor service!

Just tried for the first time this morning and it did not disappoint! After easy mobile ordering, I walked into a brightly colored, welcoming environment. The employee, (I?m sorry I didn?t catch their name) was very nice and had our order ready, even complemented our BYO?s. Would definitely recommend if in the area!

So I was truly excited to find a GF donut shop while in Columbus. Ordered several to try and I've got to say...simple is better! The texture is great with a little crunch on the outside, soft center. The toppings are ok, thats why I say simple is better. The bacon maple..bacon would've been soo much better if it was cooked more, crunchy. The flavors are wonderful but next time, yes we will come back...we will go with a simplified donut. Price wise...a little much for what we ordered, opposed to what we re

I'm glad google reminded me to review this amazing establishment. Now I remember their name to go back! I will see you tomorrow morning!!! Fantastic place.

Spur of the moment decision and boy was it a great one. I had heard of Donna?s before but had no idea the donuts are made to order! There are recipes on the wall or one can create their own?the dough is dropped in right after an order is placed. Donuts don?t get more fresh than this! Depending on the size of the order, it may take a few minutes, but getting warm, fresh donuts with carefully hand-placed toppings is incredibly worth it. Beyond the donuts themselves, the shop is clean, bright, and welcoming, w

Hands down the best donuts I've ever had. You can select from the menu or select your own toppings. My sons loved it. The staff is very friendly and donuts were perfect. Update 1/11/20 went back for another dozen today and fantastic again. Seriously best donuts EVER!!

Best donuts around! The perfect texture and toppings. Love that I can order and pick up all this yummy warm goodness!

Drove 30min to get donuts for Mother?s Day only to be told that they do not take walk-ins only online orders. Even if we did an online order at the shop they stated they wouldn?t be able to get to the order for 5 hours.

Good donuts! I ordered a day prior to going to pick them up due to high demand. They were good and ready on time. It was easy to order online and they sent alerts to confirm they were ready. The donuts ARE NOT normal size donuts. Which is fine, I just wish i would have realized that in advance so I could order more.

I ordered the gluten free donuts and they were amazing. The flavors were great and I?m excited to try the rest. Update: Went back again. My boyfriend surprised me with a dozen and they were amazing again.

Stopped by Donna?s Delicious Donuts today. All donuts are made to order. You talk about fresh. Quite the variety too. Everyone is super helpful. Easy online ordering to. Yummmy!!!

Super cute doughnut shop with yummy choices. We chose a variety to share and try and each one was fresh and tasty!

Gluten free donuts are fantastic!!! Great chew and they have a nice crunch as well! I love the variety of flavors and that they are made to order! I got the gluten free build your own 6 pack. It?s amazing because you can?t find almost any gluten free donuts in Columbus, definately none with this much variety either. Definately will be a repeat customer!

I'm originally from Akron, OH but made a trip to Columbus for a Crew game. I really wanted some donuts and I know Columbus has a lot more GF options as opposed to Akron. Donna's Delicious Dozen popped up and I decided to give them a try- they were amazing! The owner is so nice and friendly and the staff was great. There is a little yellow mark next to the donut options indicating which ones they can make GF, or you can do a build your own. But, if you are going to order GF then you need to order at least a

I would no longer recommend this business, ordered gluten-free doughnuts, and they refunded my order when I got to the store because I didn't order enough doughnuts instead of calling me when I provided my number. But wanted to order more when I got to the store. The website only says a minimum of one hour's notice to make them but nothing about a size of the order. Also the regular doughnuts are so small now compared to last time I ordered. Also, they couldn't provide me with any information to call or ask

While visiting my family in Columbus, I literally planned a mini hike around being able to visit Donna?s. I love doughnuts (and sweets in general), but tend to prefer yeast doughnuts to cake. But I was intrigued by the concept of made-to-order doughnuts that you could customize. I ordered the buckeye doughnut (PB chocolate with mini buckeyes on top!); a special blueberry cake doughnut with blueberry and lemon drizzle and streusel; and, my personal favorite, a make-your-own with cream cheese icing, honey gla

OMG Donna's is the BESSSTTTTT. I've only ever had their food truck. My friend Cosmo first turned me on to them at an event at the Polaris mall, and I've seen them in my neighborhood since, which is so exciting! Donna is so sweet, and the donuts are always so fresh and yummy. The customer service is superb. I can't wait until they come back to Westgate!

Delicious donuts! They had lots of options, you can create your own or get one of their specialty donuts. Not a long wait & they were nice and warm when we got them! Very cute shop & the staff was very friendly. Would highly recommend!

All we have to say is delicious. We love Donna's Delicious Donuts ??

Need to remove your business from the Too good to go app. Two times now I have been notified 15 mins before pick up time. Business doesn't take people's time and gas into account . If they have sold a deal they should make that complete

Quaint, bright donut shop where every donut is customized and created fresh! Great curation of flavors and the tastes are magical!

Very delicious donuts with very short wait time. The special flavors are a must. Best eaten warm with cozy environment for it!

The Donuts are delicious especially when they are hot, our favorite is the strawberry cheesecake, no it does not taste like cheesecake but a delicious expression just the same. These are all cake donuts everyone single one of them, they sell tea, coffee, milk here to accompany your sweet treat. The Donuts are good the next day, not overly sweet despite the toppings we have purchased Donna's Favorite Dozen, now twice. We make the drive over 20 minutes to get these and I would say they are worth the trip, tre

Super yummy donuts!!! My family enjoyed picking their favorite icing and toppings. We will be back they tasted so fresh!!

I went to get a dozen of donuts from Donna's yesterday and they were delicious. The staff was nice and welcoming. It was empty when I walked in, but became a little busy as I was waiting. I definitely recommend these donuts.

A friend told me about this donut shop offering GF donuts, but I hadn't been able to try them until today. I could kick myself for waiting so long. They are not only delicious, but beautifully made by the order. I will definitely be indulging in these donuts again.

I've been to all the different donuts shops around the Columbus area, and this place is absolutely THE BEST donuts shop in town! I truly LOOOOOOOVE their freshly made to order donuts! ????

I've only ever gotten the gluten-free donuts, but they're delicious. Seriously, the best gluten-free donuts I've ever had. The service has always been excellent as well.

This is the best donut shop in the greater Columbus area by far! There is nothing like picking up a box of donuts that are still warm to brighten your day! These things are my go-to for making a good impression on clients for work.

I just went to Donna's Delicious Dozen for the first time and ordered a Bavarian cream donut. I don't normally like cake donuts, but this one was so light and fluffy. I definitely recommend this place! ??

Perfection. I don?t even like cake donuts but these were lighter than usual cake donuts. I love how you can create your own flavors and they were warm when I picked them up!

They made the donuts fresh when we were there. Never had donuts so fresh they were still hot...and let me tell you they were amazing. The edges had a touch of crispness while the center was super soft and tender. So many topping options were available as well! I liked that they had some seasonal flavors and some standard options. Donuts were about $2.75 each which given the specialty nature wasn't bad. I would NOT go here and expect to order "a dozen" without being specific on topping, filling, and icin

great cake donuts with a variety of toppings. you have to call in your order or order online right now, no walk in orders. it was easy to order online from the parking lot and we had our fresh donuts in 10 mins.

Thanks for having MINIs of Cbus today! Delicious, super fresh donuts. Website was very easy to navigate which was a plus. The custom options were a lot of fun to pick and choose from. And for those in a rush, they have suggestions. Worth checking out!!

I love donuts and go to every donut shop I can find. These were average made to order donuts. If you?re looking for a sweet treat go here you won?t be disappointed. If you?re more of a donut connoisseur, you probably can skip this one same thing as all the other made to order donut shops.

Donna's are way better than Ducks ??!!! Honestly Donna's & Dragon Donuts are neck & neck ?? I love them both

It may take some time, but it's worth it! Unbeknownst to me I visited on national doughnut day. They are a made to order doughnut shop and 1 person before me had ordered 5 dozen! They stayed on target! They got the orders out! So fresh! Delicious options. The dough and the grease they fry the doughnuts in is fresh no greasy after taste. Just a perfect light cake doughnut. I got half a dozen of doughnuts that were a mixture of all of their doughnuts and I also got a free doughnut for national doughnut day! I

Every time we get Donnas it always brightens my family?s day! Everybody there is SO nice, the donuts are always fresh and so delicious, and it?s never a long wait. Just got the Mother?s Day box and my mom LOVED it. Highly recommend

If you love hot, delicious, cake donuts that you can customize...then RUN to Donna's! The owner, Traci, is amazing! I have had been a loyal customer for 3+ years. I have easily booked their donut truck for multiple work events and it's always a hit. They also have GLUTEN FREE donuts and guess what...you can't event tell the difference. If you're looking for the best donut in Columbus you can stop looking because it's at Donna's. ??

Imagine the delight in a world full of mediocre chain donut shops walking in and watching someone fresh fry donuts for you, now add top notch toppings and fast service

I have enjoyed Donna?s on multiple occasions. The donuts are always very fresh and flavorful. I love supporting this local business and recommend you try them out!

Ugh! I ordered a Boston Cream donut. It was so hot it melted the cream filling and the chocolate icing. The middle ended up gooey and gross. I will not be back. I'd give zero stars but it doesn't allow you to do that.

Oh my lord I just had these donuts for the first time and they are absolutely delicious! Probably some of the best donuts I?ve ever had.

Was at the Abercrombie Challenge this past weekend and I had the very last donut you had before closing up your food truck for the night. Omg, I?m glad I hung around for it. So good, a little crisp on the outside and soft and pillowy on the inside. Perfect amount of glaze and sweetness. And have to say, the staff was so friendly and nice.

Had an amazing experience David was extremely personable . Exhibited an amazing personality and overall killed the core values of a friendly environment. Listen i just came for some donuts and i got a world class experience . 100/10 experience and the donuts and the frozen mocha were top Tier !!! Personal favorite - cinnamon swirl , and the fruity pebble !

Was very happy to see the coffee truck at the Ohio Stadium during the Buckeye Country Superfest! Needed a pick me up during a long, hot day of outdoor music and our cold brews were perfect. Great customer service and the line moved quick.

Donuts are always amazing! Nice selection. Donuts are fresh, and tasty. Never disappoints. Original glazed and Cinnamon Roll Crunch

I placed an order online for my monthly Saturday morning Cigar and Coffee session. The doughnuts were definitely a hit. What?s even funnier is after one bite a couple of the guys said..?Donna?s?? So yeah, I?ll be back!!!

Finally after months & months of seeing these delicious donuts on Instagram, I got a chance to grab some. My boyfriend and I loveddd them, definitely a 10/10! We will definitely be back!

The most flavorful and moist cake doughnuts I have had in a long time! So many flavor combinations but Feelin' Fruitylicious is my favorite!

We stopped in for brunch and my expectations were completely blown away. The best donuts in Columbus!!

Had Donna's doughnuts at the Creekside Festival for my very first time. All I can say is....Yummm. Looking forward to visiting the bakery brick and mortar. But not too often, waistline would not be happy! But definitely worth a trip!

Amazing job on custom donuts for a birthday party.

Donuts were super good! I went right when it opened and it was still pretty busy!

Very good donuts! Not too sweet. My favorite was the pineapple upside down donut

Super awesome shop! Awesome, friendly owners! The donuts are made fresh to order, definitely a must try! Thanks guys!

I live about 20 minutes away and checked the closing time and it said 5pm on Sunday. I arrive at 4:15 and was told they sold the last donuts to the person in front of me. What I don?t understand is the donuts are made fresh so I assume they just wanted to leave and tore down early which shouldn?t be acceptable?. in that case close at 4pm.

They were good donuts not great. They absolutely do not travel well I live 25 minutes away and box was grease laden when I made it home. Hoped for better given the price. Place seemed a little grimy in spots. They are probably better eaten on site, but I cannot swear that is the case.

Holy Donuts! I've had all kinds of fresh, warm donuts, and Donna's are the best! Not even close. The Cinnamon Swirl is the best donut I've ever eaten. If you're within 20 minutes of this place, make the trip! Wow

Another donut shop was closed & I really wanted donuts so I googled it and found this hidden gem. The cashier was patient as I ordered a dozen of custom and house-flavored donuts. When you enter the shop, your nose is divinely filled with a fresh bakery scent. Each donut was hand dipped and delicious; even the ones about which I was apprehensive. Do yourself a favor a go!! You won't be disappointed!

Absolutely delicious! Gave Donna's Delicious Dozen a try for a (last minute) treat for my work group. I placed my order online, and they had the donuts hot and ready right when I got there. Both me and my co-workers absolutely loved the donuts - will definitely be my "go to" donut place from now on!
