Customer Reviews

I cannot tell you enough how much I love this donut shop. Everything from their coffees, to their donuts and bagels is absolutely delicious. I look forward to going here every chance I can get. They open early and they are always so so happy to serve their customers. Please show them support and visit their shop, you won?t be disappointed I promise.

Homemade and Delicious. These are some of the best donuts I've had in a very long time. The Raspberry Filled Donuts Are the best I've ever had because the filling to donut portion is spot on every bite. Don't Go anywhere else within 100 miles of this shop for your donuts. Look forward to trying more products from this shop and adding more to this review. At this time I would like to offer my Google certified 360 Photography services. I can take 360 photos for your shop for Google so that potential custome

This place is a hole in the wall! It is very easy to miss, but if you see the sign, take the time to stop. We went on a Saturday around noon and got three donuts: chocolate cake, chocolate and sprinkles, and glaze. Every donut was amazing, fresh, and tasty! There were plenty of flavors to choose from and there was easily something for everyone. In addition to donuts there were drinks, including coffee, smoothies, and a cooler. They also offered some breakfast sandwiches and sported a drive through. This

Stop by this amazing donut shop. There donut's are soft, fluffy, light. They taste amazing. The only issue I had with one of the donut; is that the nutmeg overwhelm the cinnamon. If they make a balance between the two of them then it's perfect. Overall satisfaction is 5 stars. Keep up the good work.

Great donuts, Great coffee, Great service! They have, by far, the best donuts in London. Believe me, I'm a retired police officer, so I know my donuts! Employees are very nice and courteous, and will make just about anything you want on the spot. Lots of selections and customizations. If your looking for great donuts, breakfast sandwiches, or coffee, this is your place!

Best Freshest Donuts around and best prices around! If you love donuts then stop by and visit them. You will not be disappointed! Support your local business instead of the incorporated businesses they donuts are so much better fresh!

This was a trip back to fix my previous order from 2 weeks ago when I got charged almost $20 for a dozen cream-filled donuts. But when I got home 10 of the 12 donuts were in fact empty! I had to practically argue with one of the male workers that pretty much wanted to insinuate I was lying because he remembered filling them. Um...no sir you did not! I offered to take pictures of them, which clearly show there's NO filling, but he didn't want to give me a phone # to send them to so.... I'll just send the

Great place to get your sweets and be in and out in no time at all

Tried to come here for breakfast, but they were completely sold out by 10am. The owner was very apologetic and polite. I?ll give them 5 stars for that alone! We will definitely stop by here next time we?re in the area. We ended up at ?king donuts? down the street! They are a great alternative as well.

Best donut shop for sure, you will not be disappointed, the staff is very friendly. I love their ?clairs. You can pick any donuts, and you'll be happy, always fresh, and always tasty.

Got a dozen long johns here and couldn't have been happier. They were almost twice as big as the ones at King's and were less expensive too. I came in in the early afternoon and they still seemed as fresh as 7am. The employees were more than friendly and threw in an apple fritter for free which was also delicious. You owe it to yourself to give this shop a try. The extra effort they put into their products is very evident.

The donuts are excellent. Family owned. Nice folks. We get donuts every sunday on way to church. They usually sell out by 1 pm. They will fill donuts with your favorites. Cream rasberry ect. But come early. They also do smoothies and other delights. Check them out.

The donuts were so soft and delicious. The cream was super sweet though. The cinnamon rolls are the best!. Diffently recommend trying

Hands down the best donuts!! Always fast fresh and very friendly. We love this place

In middle school, I had to walk to this donut store to get on the bus because it didn't come up our street, and the family running this store was always very sweet and welcoming! They had the best customer service, and their donut holes are still the best I've ever eaten.

Waited in the drive thru for 10 minutes. Just to be ignored. Decided to try inside because my toddler had to use the restroom. But after a quick look up and down we were told no restroom (thought that was illegal?) Anywho not a great first impression. Will be looking for a more customer friendly donut spot.

Great people with great donuts

I absolutely love this place. The options and variety are insane.

Best place to purchase wonderful fresh doughnuts. We will definitely be back. We highly recommend this place of business. Very friendly and very clean.

I was on a road trip back to NC on tues 6/26 & we happened to stop thru London, KY. I had a craving for donuts & found his little gem. Man, the donuts were fantastic! The owners were so kind & personable also. I loved seeing their interaction w/ the locals who came in while I was there. I will absolutely try to visit this place again if I take a road trip or that way. I definitely recommend trying them out if u are in the area!

I?ve purchased here before. Early in the morning?.wonderful fresh glazed and chocolate covered doughnuts. Only reason I gave 4 rather than 5 is I have stopped in around 10:30 Ans they didn?t have any standard doughnuts (all speciality) Ans said they were going to have anymore today. What? No doughnuts in a doughnut shop?

Only giving four stars because we didn?t get to try the donuts. We came at 1030 on a Sunday and they were already sold out. We did try one of their breakfast sandwiches which was thin, but very tasty.

This is my favorite donut shop in London. It's infinitely better than the big chain stores. The donuts weren't as good as normal on my last visit. They seemed as if they weren't as fresh as normal. It was a bit later in the morning than I usually visit, so I'm chalking it up to that. Service is always excellent.

Fantastic donuts with lots of options!

The lady working here was very nice. The donuts were fresh and only $1 each. She even noticed my dog was with me and offered me some water to give to her.

First, kudos for all the staff wearing masks. Both parties wearing masks brings risk of covid way way down. Second, the service was fantastic. Both the young gentleman and the young lady who completed our order were kind and polite. Third, the food is to absolutely die for. The sausage egg and cheese croissant made me forget about the nightmare hellscape that was 2020 for a while... and the custard in their donuts is clearly fresh and wonderful. Boston Cremes are my favorite and honestly this blew Dunkin aw

My wife and I simply love these people at master donuts. As for myself I can only vouch for 2 things, I Always get an Apple fritter Donut And a breakfast croissant. Yes they are that addictive lol.

Best donuts in london! I get some here whenever I'm in town.

My first time going to Master Donuts, I met the owner and his wife. They are awesome people and the donuts were awesome too!

Be there in the am on 3/11/2023. Surprise for my wife. Hard to find a good bakery close. Single star was a way of saying here I come!! ???????? Ungrateful people don't deserve a response y'all!

Great service, provided alternative milk products for those with what sensitivity, and even gave us a freebie! Would recommend to anyone. Don't forget to tip! We need to keep places like this around.

The best donuts I?ve ever had. Seriously. Wow. Great prices and friendly people too!

This place was way more than I expected. Just like the old fashioned donuts from the Menanites. Carmel fraps it's a mmust have, better than any other place IV attended. This will be my first choice for drinks too. Great service

Some of the best donuts we?ve ever had

Delicious, fresh donuts, a great variety and reasonably priced. Friendly workers too

They make good donuts, but they are usually out of the one I want the most. That doesn't change where I buy donuts, because I enjoy the rest of their donuts just as much.

Very pleasant owners and donuts are always fresh

Great pastries and food at amazing prices! My group was on a hiking trip to London. We came here, and everyone decided we had to come again before we left town.
