A great donut option in Kitty Hawk and surrounding areas. Serve fresh hot cake donuts directly off the fryer with your choice of toppings. The glazed cake donut was especially amazing. We also ordered their cinnamon sugar donuts which pulls apart like a croissant. Yum! They also offer a fill Boston creme donut using an excellent rich dark chocolate. It takes a while for the donuts to be freshly made, but worth the wait. Let them know that Lonny with @donutexplorers sent you. ??
Such a sweet family-owned donut shop! They went out of their way to make our visit special?offering the kids free donuts to keep them entertained while we waited, chatting with us about our trip, and even sharing family-friendly OBX recommendations. The interactive draw-your-favorite-donut wall, kid-sized viewing bench, and warm service made it clear this shop was built with families in mind. The donuts were fresh, soft, and delicious?and made with healthier ingredients too! Clean space, plenty of outdoor s
Lots of fun options to build your own donuts. The owner was extremely friendly and fun to talk with. It did take quite a while to get our donuts, and some of the toppings had melted off in the box because they were still warm. They're small but tasty. There are two benches inside to wait and a few tables out front.
I had the chance to visit this nice place. The donuts and coffee were great. Service was very polite and friendly. Time which I spent here made my day. I wish them all the best for the future. They are doing very good job.
They were VERY friendly and welcoming. Asked us if we're local or traveling and where we're from. Donuts are made to order and warm and we don't have that from where we're from so it was a really cool experience! Best bavarian donut I've ever had! Wish we had your store in our state! Thank you!
Delicious donuts and the friendliest service around! Love the variety of flavors/toppings. Great drink selection as well. If you're in OBX, you have to stop in and get Donuts 4 You!
We were going to the shop but when we went online we found out they deliver! ( total plus when you have kids that get over stimulated with so many choices) we ordered online not knowing if it would be any good. But thought who cares because it was half the cost of the other places. Here's my entire experience. App: Super easy to use. Ordered at midnight for next day. Received confirmation as soon as submitted. Ordered updated as soon as location opened. Received a notification when order was on way. Deliv
Donuts were perfect with so many options to decorate! The people are so friendly! I wanted to try them all, but I?ll just have to come back again!
My favorite donut place on the beach... The cannoli donut is probably one of the most awesome things ever. It's one of those donuts that they don't always have, so it's a wonderful surprise when they do. I love the personality of a small business when they're constantly bringing in different items to keep it interesting for the regular consumer. It's also refreshing knowing that this is a family business with roots in the community. This is truly an opportunity to buy local!
The donuts from here were the highlight of our visit to OBX. The donuts are fresh made and we loved how there was a variety of donut types you can get. My husband is not a fan of duck because it's just the same mediocre donut with different toppings. All the donuts we tried from here were amazing - warm and crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy in the inside. Because they're fresh made/made-to-order, there is a short wait but I really enjoyed watching the donut machine while we waited. And, the donuts were
Stopped by Donuts4You on our way home from Kitty Hawk this morning (7/26/21). We ordered chocolate coconut, strawberry frosted, crumb and churros. All were made-to-order, warm and delicious with great flavor. Would 100% recommend. Their social media manager is also super friendly - responded immediately when I tagged them, I always appreciate fun customer service!
Delivered on time by a lovely gentleman who was so friendly and professional! Delicious. My favorite was the spiral shaped donut with a honey glaze...seriously melts in your mouth. Perfectly sweet. Kids loved the Bavarian cream varieties with different toppings. Cannoli donut was incredible. 10/10, will be back before we leave the island.
To be honest, this place randomly caught my eye while driving. The "dot com" in business name made me wonder if they were for real. The internet confirmed that indeed they are ??. A try now seemed necessary. They have a very straight forward variety of what appeared to be more cake like than yeast donuts. Some of the donuts left kind of a greasy mouth feel after eating but overall were enjoyable. Online pre order was simple and convenient. The real benefit to this small shop is that most Duck Donuts in the
Talk about customer service! Patrik, the owner, greeted me at the door with a smile on his face that was definitely genuine (not one of those fake ?customer service smiles? that we?ve all seen). His two new staff members were attentive and accurate with my order. I love that I could get a box of nine donuts (because six would have been too few and a dozen definitely too much). I got to watch them dip the donuts in the shop-made glazes, drizzle on the, well, drizzle, and then add a variety of sprinkles. I ad
Absolutely amazing donuts and even better customer service! There's nothing like making your custom donut and enjoying it with a beach view and a cup of coffee. Definitely stop through here or place a delivery order!
Donuts4You is so wonderful! Delicious donuts in all varieties and delicious pretzels with cheddar and bacon. I was so full and satisfied. Plus the service was fantastic. The donuts and food were so good we even had it delivered to us and that service was fantastic. Everyone at our house loved them. Highly recommend and thanks Bob and Bond for the recommendation!!
Highly recommend Donuts4You! It was in bike-riding distance for my 4 year old and we made several trips during our vacation. They were great with children! And even put my daughter?s donut in its own little box so it would fit in the basket on her bike. The staff was so friendly and attentive. And had so much patience while my daughter decided what to order. The donuts have been fresh every time we got one. Love seeing smiling faces in a local business and to see them be so appreciative of the business. Wil
Great tasty donuts freshly delivered to your door! I highly recommend them if you have a sweet tooth!
These Fresh made donuts are so much better than what ever it is dunkin serves. So why is the line wrapped around the dunkin building and not here where it should be? Donuts for you also has a larger selection. You can literally create just about any type of combination you want. Haven't tried their coffee yet though so I can't tell you if it's good or not.
Donuts4You has become a yearly tradition as part of our vacation. The kids get so excited for "donut day" and let's be honest, the adults do too. There's something awesome about getting some of the most delicious donuts you've ever had delivered right to your door by the kindest and friendliest people ever. I can't recommend Donuts4You enough. Trust me, I think I've had everything on the menu at this point!
Second time back in a week. Don?t waste your time in the Duck Donuts line-go here! Extremely fast, excellent service. I?m certain these are the best donuts I?ve ever had. Top quality, arrived warm, perfectly cooked, not overly sweet. Highly recommended!!
We were visiting from out of town and wanted to support someone local. The staff was very sweet and even created conversation while we waited. The donuts were a huge hit- amazing flavor, soft and not too filling. Highly recommend!
I'm so happy we found this donut shop. This (pictured) delicious masterpiece is a bacon, egg and cheese breakfast donut. Definitely try the donut holes and iced coffee too. It's a great place to grab a quick breakfast and head back to the beach!
Best donuts in the area. We have tried several bakeries and most of the donut shops from duck to Nagshead. This place crushes. The cake donuts are perfectly cooked and the glazes/drizzles/toppings are perfect for customization. We got a cake donut with chocolate glaze and coconut flakes, as well as a cake donut with raspberry glaze and chocolate drizzle. Both incredible. Once again, best donuts in the area.
first time there trying something new. I prefer when on vacation to support local owned businesses. This place did not disappoint. They have all kinds of flavors to go on top of there doughnuts. Had them do a dealers choice which is let them be creative. very happy with there choices. is take out or delivery.
Hidden little gem! Searched up donut shops while staying in Kitty Hawk and found this place. Staff was super friendly and donuts were awesome! We ordered the random assortment and all were good. Definitely recommend if you are in the area!
Such a great experience. It's custom donuts and a family run business. I've never been somewhere that you can build your perfect donut. I basically made a Samoa Girl Scout cookie donut. Bavarian creme, Chocolate glaze, Carmel drizzle, and sprinkled coconut. It was no doubt the best donut I've ever had. Not only was the donut amazing, the family that runs it was super nice and friendly. They truly truly care about making the best product and experience for everyone. I've been back twice now, and will defini
I love donuts ?? but they have the best donuts
The doughnuts were fresh and delicious and very friendly people
Great place, owner is very friendly and helpful. And the Boston creams are awesome
What a cute little shop! If you are looking for a smaller shop with delicious donuts this is your place. You can customize you donut with tons of toppings. The employees were so friendly and kind. They offered my kiddos a snack right when they got in while we picked out our donuts. We got 4 donuts and some bubble tea. This was our second breakfast and we still ate up every bite! The inside and outside was very clean and fun! I?d definitely go here again!!
We had a great experience at donuts4you!! The workers were very friendly and the food was amazing. Definitely recommend the Boston cream donut and the donut breakfast sandwiches. Will be going back!
The best donuts ever and the 2 girls were super nice!!! Definitely will come back and tell people about the donuts. ????????
The best donuts I have ever tried! So many different types, I think everyone can find their favorite. The employee are very friendly and super knowledgeable about what they sell. I love the design on this place, very modern, stylish and absolutely perfect for instagram photos. I will definitely be coming back often!! ????
What a great family run business! Stop by for a delicious custom made donuts, staffed pretzels, coffee and bubba tea, you will love it!
Love the donuts!! Va customers,Boston cream, great taste and great price, fresh donuts, delicious, awesome customer service
I visited this donut shop this morning and I wish I could give 10 stars! From the moment I walked in, the owner was so friendly and informative - he told me all about the menu and different types of donuts - explaining everything so thoroughly! After ordering, he offered me a free coffee and let me try the churro donut ?on the house? - every single thing I had was absolutely fantastic! The original glazed cake donut was probably the best I have ever had! The cream inside the long john donut was phenomenal
They are the best donuts ever. My pup Bond and I stop every morning for coffee and a donut. The staff is just wonderful- friendly, always smiling and certainly aim to please. The owner, Patrick, is a true gentleman and such a pleasure to talk to. You must try this fine shoppe.
Amazing customer service donuts are delish. Normally we go to duck donuts but the service there is so bad so I decided to give this place a try and oh my I'm so happy we did. Fast service, everyone working there was nice. This is our new favorite donuts shop will be back many times.
The donuts are amazing and fresh! Loved the chocolate but even just the plain is perfect with a coffee.
Amazing donut shop. We stop by on our way into and out of the outer banks each year for donuts and coffee. The donuts are top notch and the customer service is stellar. The person working the register remembers our family from year to year. We make it a point to stop here every time we?re in OBX. Very conveniently located and easy to get to.
no line, so many options, amazing donuts, incredibly kind and friendly staff, fast service and great hours. they even gave us a new donut for free they were trying out - it was delicious! so sorry to compare :: similar to duck donuts but better !!
The donuts and service was a 10/10! 100% recommend!!
Seriously not good. I ordered a couple of Boston cream donuts. The chocolate sauce covering them was good, but could not disguise the horrible donut underneath. The donut was old and dense, and the cream filling tasted goopy and salty. I can only manage one bite and I threw the rest away. This place is trying to model itself on the success of Duck Donuts. But all of the toppings and customizations don't matter if the basic donuts aren't any good. The people here are very nice, and customer service is good
Great little spot! Only sad we discovered it on our last day of Vaca! The donuts are yummy and the glazes were very flavorful! Egg and cheese donut hit the sweet and salty spot! My 7 year old says, "best thing ever!" And we were at 3 donut spots in the last week!
The staff here was so kind and they had so many yummy options! Fun combinations. Definitely ask the staff for recommendations, they know what?s good! Out of all the kinds we got, the glazed and maple bacon was my favorite! They have many ?fake? flavors (strawberry, etc) so just a heads up. Get the real stuff like chocolate and peanut butter and maple bacon. You won?t go wrong with those. Donuts were warm and so delicious!
Great service! The cold brew was amazing. And the donuts were excellent. The workers were ready to help us. And they explained all our questions. Overall great experience at Donuts4you
Delicious donuts and the kindest & friendliest owner you?ll ever meet! Patrik is passionate about his shop and his family, and about giving his customers the best experience. We will absolutely be returning every year when we visit for vacation. If you haven?t tried their air fried churro donut, you?re missing out!
Stopped by for donuts the morning after the storm. The two young ladies in the shop were wonderful. The donuts were delicious, really worth it. Don't forget to try the cannoli donut!
Came here with my family and I have to say, these are some of the best donuts I have ever had. The variety is unmatched and they make the donuts right in front of you.
Delicious coffee and donuts! Service was excellent! Visited for the first time this morning. Eager to return soon. Chatted with the owner who is delightful. Thanks for a memorable breakfast!
Stopped in during our vacation. Great local place. Donuts were warm and fresh with lots of toppings and flavors to choose from. People working there were friendly. Kids enjoyed drawing their favorite donuts on the chalkboard. Highly recommend!
Wonderful service, great donuts and a great time!
Super friendly place! Absolutely wonderful atmosphere, and so helpful. Went to duck donuts and felt like we were an inconvenience but this place was so much more welcoming. Super clean, well made and so many many options. Stuffed churros are great!! Will definitely be back when we are in OBX and is our new go to donut shop while in town. Very reasonably priced too. Lots of combo options
Very friendly service and fresh, tasty donuts. Especially recommend the churros donuts with cinnamon sugar. Very light and yummy.
This place is BETTER than Duck Donuts in my opinion! The staff is super friendly and sweet, and the donuts are INCREDIBLE. We went multiple times during our stay and every donut was a slam dunk!!!!
Best donuts on and off the beach! The owners and staff are so caring and provide the best service. Great for parties, staff meetings, and just a great pick me up. They even DELIVER!
Great warm doughnuts. They make them fresh for you. I got the Boston Cream and the warm doughnut mixed with cool cream was delicious
This place is fantastic. You can Order online and pick which donuts you want. No wait, no line. Pick your own toppings. We will be back! Verrrry tasty. The maple bacon is amazing, the bacon Tastes like they just made it.
Went in this morning after hearing they had boba tea and it was definitely the best on the beach, I even got another after trying the first one I ordered! Usually I have to wait to go to Virginia for some so this will definitely be a place I?ll be going back to and sharing with others! I forgot to ask for the sweet lady?s name but she was so nice, 110% great customer service.
Not only are the donuts delicious (the Churo is amazing!!!!) the owner and his staff are so friendly. We will definitely he returning. Grown up and kiddos very happy!
Made a stop here before leaving Kitty Hawk. Cute shop with the friendliest staff. They make the donuts FRESH and it was one of the best donuts I've had. Will definitely return when I visit again. I didn't even have time to take a picture because I ate them too fast.
Amazing customer service. They accidentally forgot a donut we ordered rd, when we called, the employee told us she would have an employee drop it off for us! Donuts were warm and very delicious!
?? delicious delicious donuts n churros ?? 100%
Offers various shapes of plain donuts with your choice of custom toppings. I was craving a chocolate cake donut. When I saw what was available, I ordered a regular cake donut with chocolate icing and Oreo crumble topping. It was delicious.
Great little donut shop! Hot fresh donuts with a nice variety of toppings and flavors. Staff was very friendly and a pleasure to deal with! Highly recommend over the big chain donut shops in the area.
Driest donut I've ever ate. According to reviews a lot of people have never had good donuts. Had the texture of a 3 day old donut.
Probably the best doughnuts I have had. Bought a variety, and was very surprised all were not super sweet. Flavors were all balanced. Definitely get the chocolate glazed and apple maple.
Great donuts, friendly staff, nice atmosphere. I recommend the donut bacon and cheese sandwhich
Great cake donuts and light and fluffy churros - air fried so less of a guilty pleasure. Staff are extremely pleasant and highly recommend!
DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE. 2 HOURS...NO DONUTS AND THEY STILL CHARGED ME. THEY WILL NOT CALL ME BACK OR ANSWER THE PHONE. UPDATE: WOW BLAME THE CUSTOMER. I have full respect for the business policies. I did not ask for delivery, it was offered. The order was placed at 8;44. I received 1 call that said the couldn't find my address (on the main road). An hour later I called again and was told again that the employee couldn't find the address. I said to forget it and canceled and give me a refund. S
They made the donuts in front of us, so we know they are fresh! The almond with sprinkles was my favorite! Super friendly staff! Great place
Great air-fried churros and stuffed pretzels! Family owned. The father and son working at the counter were very friendly and helpful.
Disappointing compared to some other design-your-own donuts in the area. Some nice flavors but icing was overly sticky. Churros were delicious though!
Great donuts tasted fresh, multiple choices of donuts, amazing customer service very friendly, I would highly recommend this place for donuts one of the best donut places I?ve been to
The bacon, egg, and cheese donut sandwich is one of the best things you?ll find in OBX. You gotta get it.
Excellent local option for fresh donuts with fabulous toppings. Great staff and service. Definitely check them out, especially since the Kitty Hawk Duck Donuts is closed!
I?ve tried a lot of donuts and hands down, these donuts are the best! A lot of flavors to pick from and they are moist!
Churros are the best crispy on outside spongey light on inside. Visiting is a must do when on vacation in the OBX. We will be returning again tomorrow.
The staff was very courteous and it was an enjoyable experience in the donuts were wonderful! And thank you for the cannoli donut
The donuts here are amazing. We particularly loved the donut holes.
Staff were friendly and courteous. Unfortunately, the donuts were not particularly good. Specifically, the pastry aspect; they tasted stale.
Super amazing place!!! There was a crazy long line at Duck Donuts and we came here. Should?ve come here first. Amazing service and amazing donuts. Come here you won?t regret it!!!
The best donuts I have ever had not to mention the service was phenomenal alex did a great job making me feel at home.10/10
Fantastic Atmosphere! Incredible service! Very kind staff! Very good, fresh cake donuts. Perfect spot on vacation
Ending up trying Donuts4You because the line for the other donut place was so long. Donuts4You is new so he haven't heard of it before but are glad we tried it. Tasty, fresh donuts.
SOOO GOOD! The cutest shop with interactive chalk boards and such a nice staff! They were super patient with our large order and made great conversation!
DO NOT GET COFFEE HERE!!!! ESPECIALLY THE ICED COFFEE, ITS NOT EVEN DRINKABLE ITS SO NASTY!!!!! Donuts are too hot to eat so I can't review them, but I had to warn people of their NASTY watered down disgusting coffee!!!!!!!
