If you want good donuts come here!! Smaller size but very cheap and delicious!! A couple different kinds- sugar, plain, cinnamon but so good and local to island- made there. Very quick as line wasn?t bad and moved a long. A couple tables all out doors as it is a food truck so nice to eat outside but also can grab and go. FYI - small parking lot but Defs worth it. Great in flavor and nice little treat- recommend
Hot fresh and delicious donuts within walking distance of the ferry. Don't miss this spot. Try all three plain, sugar and cinnamon they are all amazing. If you get lucky you'll get them hot. Great donuts with a great view.
When they?re hot and fresh, some of the best donuts you?ll ever eat!
If you are in Block Island and want to try some donuts, please don't miss this spot.
Great donuts at an amazing price. Such a fun little stop. That said, the trailer doesn?t look like it has too much potential but don?t let looks deceive you.
Classic cake donuts in three varieties, plain, sugar, and cinnamon. Nice crunch to the exterior and soft cake interior. Get them hot out of the deep fryer and they are superb.
Cinnamon + Sugar. Wow it was still warm and fluffy. I could eat a dozen to myself ?? Seriously though. Highly suggest a stop!
Great Doughnuts u wont find any fresher
Just like the donuts you would get at the apple pick or fair. Hot, dense, and delicious. We had a friend visit, and they made bread pudding with them! Plain, sugar, and cinnamon sugar. Why not try all three. Don't let the food trailer vibe fool you. These are worth the stop and only available for a limited summer season.
A must have on Block Island. My favorite donuts. Better every time.
donuts were nice, soft and warm. and they have a slush puppie machine!
These were the best donuts we have ever had! We probably ate 16 over the course of 2 days.. not an exaggeration. When we visited the island in September, the truck was only open on the weekends. Find out their availability first and plan accordingly. So worth it!!
Rolled up on this place after hearing from a bunch of people and initially was unimpressed. Small, unassuming spot not looking anything like a donut place, with limited selection in donuts. Was immediately proven wrong upon eating one of their cinnamon sugar donuts. These folks have perfected the art of donut making. The texture and flavor were amazing. Go get one.
Best donuts on the island!
Great place, delicious donuts!
Fantastic donuts got there at the end of the day and bought all the donuts left and they were amazing. No pics because I'm an animal and devoured them luckily with some help but will definitely be back.
Great, if you can catch them while they?re open. They are often randomly closed when the signs posted at the location say they should be open.
CASH ONLY! Delicious. Go in the morning and they come out hot and fresh! Three flavor options - plain, cinnamon and sugar. Cannot go wrong. Little seating area available as well. Coffee available for purchase and I believe they also do a donut ice cream sundae that we never got around to trying. Mmm. Don't miss this quick stop
today was my first visit to block island. as we were walking to our dinner destination we came across Payne?s Killer Donuts. we both agreed we?d get some on the way back. unfortunately, we caught them just as they closed. however, the two lovely ladies there saw the look of disappointment on our faces and offered us some left over donuts. OH MAN! OUTTA THIS WORLD!!! if you like donuts, then don?t pass Payne?s up! They made us feel like family and it was lovely. i can?t wait to go back and repay the favor! Y
Hands down best donuts I have ever had! They are homemade warm and just big enough to have two! My favorite food is donuts so I know a good donut when I taste one.
Freshest Donuts I've had in a LONG TIME! They make them right there and they're so reasonably-priced! Definitely go if you're on Block Island for breakfast. Or lunch. Or dinner. Or all.
Yummy sugar shot on our bike ride around the island. The doughnuts are fresh and you can get other snacks too - Including cold drinks to quench your thirst.
Awesome donuts, or, as they say, killer donuts. Only three types, sugar, cinnamon, or plain, but that's all you need. Best time to get donuts is early in they morning. They are hot and delicious.
As they say it best, "If you could choose between having abs or having Payne's Donuts which would you choose? Cinnamon or sugar?" They are the best! (I choose one of each!)
Some of the best damn donuts I've ever had. Reasonably priced and fresh everytime. Never a bad experience.
When I have one of Payne's donuts I know that I am really on vacation on Block Island! Great space to social distances with coffee and donut (still warmed).
KILLER donuts!!! Well worth the wait. Can't make up my mind on which one is the best. Plain, cinnamon or sugar. Do what I did and get one of each.
Charming little place! Great, fresh made donuts.
Popular. There can be lines. The one I tried was home-made style, which can be pretty heavy. Maybe order fewer for a group than you might from a place with light donuts.
Friendly staff and simply incredible old fashioned style donuts. All 3 types are amazing. A Block Island must.
Delicious, light and airy donuts. Always enjoy these when visiting the island.
Awesome donuts! Cash only, which made it tricky, but completely worth it. The kind of donut you could easily eat a dozen of.
I don?t even like donuts. When I get coffee on the mainland, I?m never tempted by donuts. But these donuts are different? not to be missed!
Great place for breakfast! If you disagree, it's not the caviar crowd your looking for.
Amazing taste, fresh and hot, the best cinnamon donuts you?ll ever have!
Awesome food great for a quick bite best donuts I?ve had in a long time.
best donuts on the island. done in the traditional style. a steal at 80 cents each.
Fantastic donuts! Best in the USA. Unfortunately only open in the Summer.
Donuts were awesome, had to get 2. The coffee was good, too.
Nothing special- ok doughnuts and weak coffee. The workers were a little rude too.
Overpriced and low quality. Can't even toast a bagel properly yet charges nearly 3 dollars for it.
We came on a Friday in September...it was closed...they are only open on the weekends during the off season...don't want to give a high score or a low one...so 3 it is
A must stop for anyone spending a long weekend or a week on the island. Just don't over indulge too much!
Good donuts with ducks to look at too. Can't go wrong.
not killer doughnuts...small and taste no diff than dunkin donuts
Melt in your mouth donuts and a quacky crew make for a tasty fun stop!
Good donuts but not worth the half hour wait
Can't really say nothing bad about this place. A must if you visit block Island
Great donuts (little pricey though)!
This place has all the fishing supplies you need for any kind of fishing.
Meh! Tiny donut. Tasty but nothing special.
Wow! These cake donuts are amazing!
Excellent donuts! Wonderful bagels!
nice lil food truck with great donuts
So good I could eat about a dozen
Decadent, always first morning on the Island stop at 7am.
The name says it all -- the Donuts are killer!
Awesome, simple, fast, priced fair
Block Island landmark didn't disappoint
Just like my mom made!!! So~~~good!!!
The best.. What else is there to say?
A must stop on any trip to Block Island!
Greatest donuts on the eastern seaboard
Ice coffee was disgusting
Killer donuts. Any questions?
You have to have one!
AMAZEBALLS WOULD DEVOUR AGAIN
Best sinkers in the world
