Customer Reviews

Great vegan donuts!!! They had an amazing selection and everything we got was incredible. Our favorite was the Boston cream donuts. I also really loved the maple Bigfoot. The owner was very friendly and the atmosphere was super adorable. This place is a must go to if you are in Forest Grove!

Cutest little donut shop (colorful and happiest of vibes)! I may or may not be a vegan donut connoisseur? their apple fritter is other worldly delicious. My family was in absolute heaven with the assortment we purchased!! Thank you!

Amazing! Honestly, I've eaten thousands of donuts in my life, and these beauties from Pacific Donuts are perfection. They are so light and fluffy that they basically melt on the tongue. This is true for both raised and cake versions. (Pro tip: if you are like me and always buy more than you can eat in a day, the cake Donuts freeze really well.) I love everything I tried, but I especially recommend the maple Bigfoot. The shop is adorable, and the service is always genuine and very friendly. Maybe it's a goo

Came in got the coffee deal with 2 donuts I got a 4 pack and 2 singles a raspberry and chocolate yeti foot and a lemon stuffed also I didn?t have a cup holder for my coffee he went above and beyond and taped my coffee shut I put it in the drink holder of my backpack not a single drop spilt! The service was great the hospitality was wonderful thank you for helping my day start out great!

Fun and colorful shop with donuts that are to die for! I always try to get different things when I come in, and I have yet to find a donut that I didn't like. There is only one thing though.... this shop is too close to my work and I have to refrain from buying donuts every day!

I came from Washington to live here in Oregon last year and have been looking around for a good doughnut shop. I've been to Voodoo Doughnuts and they're okay, just fancy, creative frosting, but the doughnuts are just okay. I've tried Krispie Cream (no thank you) and quite a few others. None of them hold up to Pacific Doughnuts. I was amazed at how large the fritters were (apple and blueberry) and I couldn't wait to eat them before I had a chance to take a picture, with the doughnut almost melting in my mou

BEST vegan donuts in the Portland metro area. Better than Doe donuts even. I drove from NE pdx and would go frequently if it was closer, that would also be quite dangerous though so it's probably for the best! Great flavors, variety and quality. Staff was very friendly. Will make sure to stop for some donuts if im ever in the area.

The maple bars are the best! These are the absolute most airy and light doughnuts I've ever had. I was so surprised that the doughnuts are 100% plant based! You would not know the difference if it wasn't displayed! So impressed. Vegan and gluten free. So happy I found this spot! Me and my family will definitely be visiting more often for a sweet treat!

The Maple Bar is the best here!!! My daughter says the frosting is the best! These doughnuts are so delicious and fluffy, they are a little pillow of heaven.

These donuts are so pretty and good. They are fresh and flavorful. Top 3 for me are Boston cream, blueberry fritter and maple frosted tied with peanut butter chocolate.

Let's start with the positive. Their donuts look nice. However at best I'd give them a 2? on taste. But, what's even worse than that is, who knows if you are going to waste a trip by heading there during their posted business hours. Their hours sign means nothing.

I love this place so much. Though I rarely eat sweets, I must support this cruelty free business. Best donuts ever.

These donuts are the best plant based donuts I have ever had. The maple bars are so good. They have a frosting not a glaze. ??

Went here today for the first time. I have to say for ?vegan? donuts these were amazing!!! I got the least vegan option with bacon and was so impressed with the consistency, softness and taste of the donut and maple frosting!!! WOW! Definitely will be going back.

It?s a donut shop, that sells amazing donuts at a great price and with awesome service. What more is there to say? :)

We love Pacific Donuts! The flavors are all delicious! They are also a perfect balance of sweet and salty. Thank you for bringing yummy donuts to Forest Grove!

Came to this quaint little donut shop and was not dissatisfied honestly the donuts are just the right size not to big or small just perfect and the taste let me just tell you these should be called heaven donuts because that?s what they taste like. 10 stars in my book

This place is incredible! You would have no idea these are plant based. I got the Maple bar & Chocolate bar, both were phenomenal!! Everything is fairly priced and they even had coffee options. Definitely would recommend as a place to stop if you?re in town or just want a sweet treat!

Fun Easter Box of doughnuts. Cute themed bunny doughnuts. Special stuff, lots of attention to detail, and tastes delicious. Arrive early so you don't miss out. The doughnuts sell out fast. The Special Easter Box's need to be ordered in advance, and are very fun and well worth it. I recommend the doughnuts, give it a try especially on that special Sunday morning. Fun stuff, and we will be coming back for more next time.

Yummy! My wife and I stop in once a week for our decadent snack. She is vegan, I am not but don't feel anything is lacking. In fact these are the best donuts I've had since moving to the Portland area. Tips: go early, as they are fresh and can run out. Also Bill will provide whatever glaze you want even if not on display, just ask.

I absolutely love this place! I?ve always stepped in so excited and left with such a good mood the rest of the day! The blueberry fritters are my favorite, and the first apple fritter my husband had here almost made him cry thinking of the ones from home (NH). I always love this guy?s mood and over all vibe! I love the aesthetic of this place and it sounds silly but my absolute favorite part is the free stickers! I always walk away with a hand full of quirky stickers to decorate my work binder or water bott

Pacific Donuts is a family-owned, plant-based business that I had the pleasure of experiencing last week. The owner instantly made me laugh and feel welcome. The blueberry frosting paired perfectly with the plant-based donut. I brought home a half dozen, and everyone was amazed that they were plant-based. We also tried the maple glazed donuts, which melted in my mouth. They were by far the best plant-based donuts we have ever had. The owner gets up at 2 a.m. to make the donuts from scratch. You have a custo

We ordered three dozen donuts for our daughter's birthday this past weekend. Placing our order online was easy and they were able to fill our order even though we placed it just a couple days in advance. Pickup was easy and they even threw in some sweet stickers for the birthday girl. The donuts were absolutely perfect and managed to silence a room full of 3-5 year olds for a few minutes! Highly recommend!

Excellent VEGAN food and beverages. We tried fritters, donuts and coffee. I liked the fritters better than fritters I've eaten from non-vegan donut shops. Great service. Friendly. Reasonable prices. Limited indoor and outdoor seating. Free paved parking on the street and in nearby public lots.

Working weekends is made better thanks to Pacific donuts ?? ?? all the Park Rangers have been popping by too ?? thank you for making lake life so yummy ??????

This is the Best Bakery on the West Coast!! We absolutely love the service and the service. We recommend this bakery to everyone. The friendly and welcoming staff is amazing and very professional. You won?t find better service or better doughnuts anywhere on the West Coast. We will be their biggest fans and devoted customers as long as you are in business. Thank you and please keep up the awesome job.

Best donuts in town! Love them all, my favorite is the all American and Canela

My first vegan doughnut! Was very light and airy. You don't miss the lard, and it is just as rich and fulfilling as a doughnut containing animal product. Blueberry fritter was crazy good!

OMG wow! These are some stellar donuts! Everything we had was fresh, fluffy and had amazing frosting. Maybe one of the best maple bars I?ve ever had ?? we will be back!

Best fritters I've had in my 4+ decades of life. Apple and blueberry. Friendly owner, cute and clean shop. Good coffee, good prices. I can't wait to try their other offerings although I can't imagine leaving there without at least 1 fritter.

Incredible donuts. Outstanding smoothies & acai bowls. The nicest, most friendly owner you could meet. There's about 1,978,364 good things I could say about their donuts & fritters. Blueberry & apple fritters, cinnamon sugar donut (with a spicy option?!). The donuts are extremely well priced, considering the care and attention to detail that goes into making them. These aren't just "good vegan donuts". These are "outstanding donuts that just happen to also be vegan", and I mean that in the best way possib

Absolutely the best vegan donuts I've ever had. Don't settle for other options. The folks there are fantastic, just super friendly! I don't see any reason to go anywhere else. Try the fritters! And a mixed dozen. They are all awesome! Thank you for being awesome!

Pacific Donuts is the cutest!! It was a fun field trip from Beaverton for my boys and me- it?s so adorable and cheerful, great service, and great donuts! Worth the drive on a Sunday ????

Wish I had pictures to include but my family is always too busy savoring / inhaling our donuts! We are so grateful to have Pacific Donuts in town, they definitely raise the bar when it comes to tastiness and texture.

I was trying to get some donuts on a Sunday morning at 9am. I am blown away a donut shop was closed on a weekend day, let alone prime donut time. Had to settle with Safeway. Would like to try this place at some point but we will see.

I couldn't be more excited about Pacific Donuts opening up! Forest Grove has been in dire need of a donut shop! These donuts are soooo delicious, and they have the most amazing texture and flavor! They are soft and crunchy, they're not too sweet, these donuts are just right! I will definitely be back for more! Also the service was great and quick, the shop was clean and cute as well! Here's an extra star! ?

I told the guy the Pacific Donut was the best donut I?ve ever had. My wife told me they were vegan donuts later that day - I?m not a vegan. I?m still in shock.

I absolutely love their donuts! So yummy! The people there are absolutely sweethearts, they gave us 2 free donuts (something they are thinking of adding to the menu) and I gotta say, its a chocolate lovers dream! They even let me take a picture of a sticker that was on their car! They are absolutely amazing! Thank you guys so much! ???

Super cute shop and product. The cake donuts are amazingly tender. I do wish the blueberry glaze had more punch (more berry, maybe a little more tart) and I am always on the look out for vegan yeasted donuts. For some reason vegan donuts tend to be cake instead. But I would definitely have a problem burning off all the calories if I lived closer to Pacific Donuts. Yumm! Oh, a big thank you to the owners for also having the single serving soy milks. Sometimes I am not in the mood for coffee but need somethin

Good variety, home grown operation, great customer service. I only wish they may revisit the recipe for old fashioned cake doughnuts in order to make it just a bit lighter. That's not quite a legit criticism because it's quintessentially a perfect cake doughnut... We love this place.

Absolutely BOMB Boston Creme donuts. Plus totally affordable.

Yay vegan donuts with structure, flavor, and whimsy! Thank you!

The freshest donuts I think I have ever had. They are the perfect size and the flavors are amazing. I like that they?re not grossly sweet like grocery store donuts, but don?t get me wrong, they?re still donuts LOL. The owners are super friendly and great to visit with.

Their doughnuts are okay and very pretty, but the business motto is open until we sell out. I've tried to go there several times, as others I know have, and they are never open. Who wants to buy doughnuts at 7 am when your coworkers don't show until 9 to give them pastry that has been sitting around for 2 hours. Will not try and go there anymore even if it's one of the only vegan options available.

Good donuts! Will definitely be back for more!

Awesome donuts, smoothies, and coffee. The owners are really sweet, great local spot!

Im giving 2 stars today because they were closed at the time I was supposed to pick up an order for 2 and a half dozen donuts, due to a family illness. I was picking them up for a Graduation party and the donuts I had ordered was what she really wanted to share with her friends. It wouldn't be as dissapointing if it wasn't a once in a lifetime party. We had to scramble and just settle for safeway. As I genuinely hope their family is ok, I feel as a business, there needs to be better steps to contact custome

an excellent cake donut, light with a good crumb, just slightly crisp from the fryer and without excess oil. The focus here is on the toppings rather than the donut itself which is sometimes a warning sign, but this donut could stand on its own. Good coffee too

Honestly some of the best donuts around. Comparable to some of Portlands favorite donuts, but often with more options. Obviously not IN Portland, but neither am I and I love these donuts. Writing this as I am literally on my way there now.

Check before ya visit.... I'm hoping itza 5 star operation when open.. Coworker came out here the next day.... good doughnuts, just not what I prefer. All 'cake' with assorted toppings. These were well made and seemed to be housemade toppings that had an all natural feel to them. I guess, dare I say, good for you doughnuts.....

They have a store in town now! And the only donut shop in town! You'll miss out if you don't try these delicious little morsels! So, go see them between 7;30am and 2pm (except Monday & Tuesday they're closed) on 21st street in Forest Grove! You'll be delighted!

Great little donut shop. I love their donuts. They are vegan except for the bacon donut, but you would never know. Super friendly!

Tried this place for the first time and it?s clear we will be lifetime customers. Hands down, the best donuts we?ve had in a long time. Friendly counter service, too.

The donuts are amazing and fresh and the toppings are good. The owners are nice. Go early because they sell out quick! Really loving the apple fritters!

Delicious! From out of town.. stopped in for a dozen to bring to a friends house in the area. We were so impressed! Just moist and flavorful. 10/10!

Reallly good! Owner is really nice and all doughnuts are made by hand that morning!! So so so good.

This is the BEST donuts and the friendliest service my family and I love there donuts.

Great donut shop! We tried all the flavors they had when we went, and the stand-outs in our opinion were the Pacific (raspberry) and the Dude (maple bacon). REALLY good.

Simply the best!! Apple fritter is to die for and the coffee is amazing as well! The owners are the sweetest people, they always make my day!

Delicious and fresh donuts! Got 6 dozen for my work crew today and everyone was happy. I will definitely be coming back for more. Thank you Pacific Donuts!

Delicious donuts and very nice donut maker. I was worried about them being vegan, as I?m not vegan and wasn?t sure what to expect. They were delicious!

Picked these up this morning for everyone at work and heard at least 5 employees say that they were the best donuts they have ever had! We will 100% be back. Thank you!!!

The most beautiful and delicious donuts in the area.

Just ok. Kinda sweets ??

BEST DONUTS EVER!! 1st time trying it, got fritters and a maple bar, Y U M !! Will be regular customers for sure!

Love your donuts. Hate the fact that you close earlier than your posted hours. I mean if you're going to close earlier at least post it so people know.... Or just be open your posted hour.... We keep missing coming in because of this.

Possibly the best donut I've ever had

Apple fritters are amazing and one of best I've had in a long time. Very friendly staff and make you feel appreciated and welcome.

Holy crikey folks! How can a hole punched round piece of grossly delish morsel be that dang yummy...? We were highly sceptical on going here... SOOOOOO thankful we did go... I have to say we didn't find one we didn't enjoy.. So thank you for blessing FG with your delishishness....??

This is a nice little breakfast food truck spot. The donut prices are reasonable and fresh. This is more of a grab and go place for a morning pitstop.

We thought we?d try out their donuts because we had been meaning to and wow, we were super impressed! We will definitely be coming back!

These are the best donuts I have ever eaten.

Absolutely love working near these guys, their doughnuts make my day!

Really good donuts their really addictive lol ?? their better than Krispy Kreme

I can't decide which is my favorite, they are all delicious! Super friendly people, too!

Great little shop with outstanding freshly made donuts. High recommend

OK! YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY!!! And super friendly!!!

Was supposed to be open at 7:30. 7:45 and they are still closed. Glad I wasted a trip.
