M Doughnuts

M Doughnuts

Reviews Summary

Overwhelmingly positive with nearly all reviews rating 5 stars. Customers rave about the high-quality, fluffy, flavorful doughnuts, especially praising the glazed, buttermilk bars, maple bacon, and lemon varieties. The adorable, clean shop with charming decor and exceptionally friendly, welcoming staff (often the owners) enhances the experience. Many call these the best doughnuts they've ever had, worth the slightly higher price. A few note the generous size and Disney-inspired designs. The single 1-star review cites a drive-thru issue. Repeat visits and strong local support are common themes.

Customer Reviews

Have been waiting for this place to open and was not disappointed. These were the most thickest donuts I have probably ever eaten. Definitely filling. I noticed most donuts in the surrounding area come off deflated so I was so happy to finally see a fluffy donut. I just thought it had something to do with the extreme humidity around here but I guess it?s lack of quality dough most donut shops are using. We tried most of the flavors and my personal favorite was the maple bar. It is a little on the pricey sid

Delicious doughnuts at an adorable shop with the kindest people who own the store. The details in the creation of the shop are so pretty! The owner is so kind and friendly. And the doughnuts? Y?ALL! Giant, soft, sweet, and so scrumptious. They were almost too pretty to eat? almost. ; ) We will be back next time we pass thru Waco!

My kids and I visited M Doughnuts while we were in Waco on vacation and we absolutely LOVED it! They are Disney Inspired and the biggest, prettiest most delish doughnuts we have ever had! My absolute favorite was the maple bar. The staff are also so kind and friendly and the shop is super clean and adorable! This is a must try spot when visiting Waco!

The aesthetic is everything and the donuts match it impeccably. The staff were so kind and friendly. Really helping me pick the best donuts. These are light and airy and so delicious. I highly recommend you stop by and grab some.

We LOVE this place! I took my daughters recently and not only is it sooo yummy, but it?s super cute. The doughnuts are wonderful? I love that they have fancy and more basic options for my picky eater. I could go on and on?from the little Jesus on the counter, the cross stamped pennies, & the caring and helpful employees, it was a 10/10! I can?t wait to bring all of my family back. ????

Asked my Roommate to grab some doughnuts at the soft opening today, as I was at work already. The decor is SO CUTE i cant wait to sit in and enjoy it myself! The staff was friendly and upfront with prices. We ordered a variety and got a little bit of everything. Let me tell you how DELICIOUS these are!! I was so pleasantly suprised by the Homer and the lemon glazed. The Homer has strawberry icing! Not just dyed pink sugar! It was such a lovely compliment to the dough. The lemon glazed was not overly sweet a

The lemon filled doughnut was spectacular!! The place is so cute, and it made the perfect stop for a sweet treat on our girls getaway. The owner was so incredible generous and kind. He gave out commemorative pennies with a cross cutout out and was willing to pose with the girls for a picture before he closed up shop for the day! Great place! Highly recommend!!

I used M Doughnuts for my wedding, substituting a cake with donuts for our dessert. They were absolutely delicious!! I was so happy about my decision to replace a cake with these. Hands down best donuts I?ve ever had. And they are huge! Couldn?t compliment them enough. Highly recommend.

Incredible experience! The two sons at the counter were super polite and welcoming. The shop?s decor is full of charm, and the story behind the 43,000 pennies is unforgettable. As for the donuts?easily some of the best I?ve ever had. A must-visit spot! They don?t try to push religion on anyone either. They simply state that ?Jesus loves you?, which shouldn?t offend anyone. We will stop by anytime we?re in Waco!

Step into a French doughnut bakery as you visit M doughnuts. Y?all. These are the best doughnuts in Waco?honestly probably Texas! And what is even better are the people who run this beautiful shop and amazing. Come and support the most kind, real, down to earth business owners. You won?t be disappointed by the food, atmosphere or people! Support small and support local!

You will never taste a nicer donut than these. They are bigger than average size yet so light and fresh and flavorsome. The glazed and strawberry iced are my absolute favorites, together with the buttermilk bars, but they are all delicious. We order often and will continue to do so, the staff are wonderful. These really are an amazing treat you have to experience for yourselves !

Great experience! Super cute and great selection. Donuts tasted very fresh & they were huge (which explains why they?re expensive). They also gave us a penny and reminded us of Jesus? love for us. How sweet!

We went to M Doughnuts for the first time and it was a sweet experience. There was a younger gentleman who helped us and answered all our questions. Everyone was so friendly. The doughnuts are delicious! I had the strawberry fudge and my husband had the maple Bavarian cream! The doughnuts were huge and us each having one was plenty! Although it was tempting to try another one of their fun flavors. It?s right across the street from Magnolia. I definitely recommend stopping by for their yummy donuts!!

The donuts are so unique, beautiful to look at and even better to eat! I called them a work of art! The shop is gorgeous and the owners are so kind and welcoming. A great atmosphere and fun adventure in Downtown Waco! Definitely not your average donut! Give it a try. You will be blessed!

The place is very cute and customer service a 10! I have been following them online for probably a year and just couldn?t justify $30 for 6 donuts so I didn?t try them. Now that they are opened I brought my daughter on her birthday Saturday around 11 and they were out of a lot so we got a buttermilk bar, a strawberry buttermilk bar and a glazed donut. I love donuts so I was hoping it was life changing. My daughter didn?t like hers and it kinda tasted like the buttermilk bar without much difference. The butt

The Murphy family are some of the best! We are so thankful they decided to bring their doughnuts to Waco! Give them a try, you will enjoy

Amazing customer service, this place goes above and beyond with everything they do! Love this family ran business!! If I could give them 10 stars I would everytime!

Take it from a local-these are the best donuts in Waco!!! They are the largest, most delicious donuts and worth every cent and calorie. The only negative about this locally owned business is that, currently, it is only open Friday and Saturday. The shop is not large enough to accommodate seating but there is plenty of outdoor seating at Magnolia. Conveniently located in the Silo District, grab a donut before heading across the street to Magnolia Press for coffee.

A sweeter little premium donut shop, I have never seen! Truly a special treat. Gorgeous desserts and atmosphere.

Really enjoyed the Boston cream and cinnamon roll donuts. They still tasted fresh the next day. These are substantial donuts weight-wise and size-wise. Love that the entire family was running the store. Wishing them much success. The donuts were delicious!

My absolute favorite doughnuts! They are incredibly fresh, have gourmet delicious flavors, and the detail and attention to detail on each one makes them stand out from any other place. Bonus! The store is gorgeous (peep the penny floor!) and the staff is so friendly.

Amazing doughnuts at a great price! The maple doughnut is a must-try?absolutely delicious. The owner was incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere was fantastic, with a unique penny floor and homey wallpaper. Affordable, delicious, and welcoming?definitely a spot worth visiting!

I had a wonderful experience and appreciated Nathan and his son Wyatt as they were so kind and had excellent customer service. I bought treats to take back to the office for my co-workers and we all loved our various items (we got 1 of everything). We will definitely be back soon!

The donuts are incredible. Unfortunately, when you check out the cashier attempts to evangelize to you. This proselytizing made the experience very uncomfortable. Also, it appears that the owners? children are the ones working the business. I feel concerned that some of the kids are not old enough to work. It feels kinda like Duggar vibes. The donuts are great, I just can?t support the business model of employee kids and evangelizing.

The cutest Doughnut shop! Very friendly staff. But the Doughnuts themselves are amazing! We bought the Original glazed, Wedding Cake vanilla and a Boston Cream.

The best doughnuts around(that bar isn?t very high though). Wonderful establishment, however their location is what I feel has the most to do with their pricing, my biggest issue. I went in to get a dozen donuts, their prices aren?t posted anywhere, so when I went to check out I was told my total was $70. That?s ABSURD for doughnuts, in my opinion. Also, if you?re charging that much, don?t leave prices absent from your establishment as to leave customers bamboozled at checkout.

We stopped by M Doughnuts on our recent trip to Waco and fell in love with the place! The doughnuts were incredible and the pink decor was beautiful :). Our favorite doughnut was the maple bacon. This is going to be our regular stop every time we visit Waco!

The BEST doughnuts you will EVER have. I dream about that buttermilk bar. You simply must go here. The owners are so sweet and you can tell so much thought and detail was put into the design. Have a buttermilk bar for me!

Visiting from Australia. These are the best donuts that we have tasted. The staff/owners were very polite and engaging. They explained each of the 19 donuts available and they were very enthusiastic. When you visit check out the penny floor.

The experience was cool but as far as the overall taste of the donuts, they were sub-par. The donuts had great flavors but they were dry. The customer service was excellent and you can tell they take extreme pride in their product. Try them for yourself though!

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!! You know how you think of beignets when you think of New Orleans (ok, maybe you think of bourbon street lol)?well, I am going to think of M-Doughnuts when I think of Waco! I had doughnuts delivered to my sons dorm as a little surprise and they were a huge hit. Came in town for Baylor game day with my family and knew I had to get them. The box was so well put together. Presentation was top notch. The smell?.omg, these doughnuts have filled this house with the sweet smell of goodness! Each don

Buttermilk bar is flavorful with a fine texture, the best I have ever had. The chocolate fudge donut is fudgy with a light crisp outerlayer, moist and rich within being too dense.

These doughnuts are incredible! You can tell they have higher quality ingredients and they taste so much better than any other doughnut we?ve ever had. We loved the adorable store, all the doughnut options and we left with the most beautiful doughnuts! Our son took his first bite and said ?this is the best doughnut I?ve ever had!? We will definitely be back!

I try not to overuse superlatives in reviews, but honestly, M Doughnuts makes incredible doughnuts! They were so good, we even went back in the afternoon for a second round. ??

First visit and we will definitely be back. These were some of the best doughnuts we?ve ever had. Super nice people running it and decor is cute too??

Delicious! Perfect density and sweetness!! They have variety of pastries and I need them all in my life! Larger and are a step above standard donuts and make the perfect gift! Support your local baker!

Absolutely fantastic!! The birthday cake donut is a must! The shop is incredibly adorable and the family who owns it is the sweetest! Must go!

It's 'D best doughnuts I've ever taste so worth the long drive for this kind of doughnuts is one of a kind doughnuts so highly recommended you'll fall in love , love, love love M doughnuts...

Wonderful doughnut shop! The cutest vibe! Doughnuts were perfection! Friendly staff!

Buttermilk glazed are amazing. Highly recommend and appreciate their service. Loved the penny at the end.

We loved it!! The lemon cake was delicious!

Great establishment, great donuts and pastries!

Best Donut shop in texas since moved here 3 years ago finally someone who makes great donut!!!! Wonderful Owners too!!

These donuts might be higher priced than most, but let me tell you, they are so worth it. The classic glazed are amazing. Light and fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness. The buttermilk bars are phenomenal and are a much better version of a Little Debbie Dunkin Stick. M Doughnuts has our vote. Support your local bakers and businesses! A+

Donuts were good. Of course a little pricey. Service was excellent.

Adorable shop and wonderful people. Amazing food! Thank you for the hospitality.

One of the best donuts I?ve had! Amazing service!

My daughter was sooooo excited to get special Baylor doughnuts delivered to her dorm! She said they were almost too pretty to eat....but she did. ?? And she said they are amazing!! We can not wait to come get some the next time we are in Waco. Thank you!!!

Butter Bar is worth a return trip. So delicious.

Great doughnuts that you will not regret stopping in for!

We pulled up and only drive thru. Secondly I asked for a staple donut and she said she was the only on there. Don?t care so we drove off. Staffing issues NOT my concern!

Got some Christmas donuts! The shop loved them!

The donuts are fabulous and I don't know which one is the best .. Chocolate, Maple or the Buttermilk Sticks. They are the Best..

Pricey but oh sooo good.

Amazing donuts! The owner was a pleasure to work with and my son was surprised to have the donuts delivered directly his dorm. Thank you! ??

So this place isn't open yet but have spoken to the owner and she seems like an awesome person... Can't wait to try these donuts

Best Donuts I have ever had! absolutely recommend.

Cute little donut shop with a variety of options. Our favorite was the lemon buttermilk donut - tasted like a cake donut and was large enough to share with my family! The shop is very cute with pink box packaging that is adorable! Walking distance to the Magnolia Silos.

Fabulous place! Super nice people! All the doughnuts we ordered were delicious. This will be a place we will visit often!
