Customer Reviews

Very welcoming, friendly staff! I am from out of town and went in to buy 4 dozen donuts for one of my accounts. They were very accommodating and the donuts looked amazing! ?? I come through this area often for work so they will be now be my "go to" for all donut needs. ?? The picture of the donuts, I think one might be a little smooshed in the middle but that is not their fault! That is from me carrying 4 stacked boxes!

Phenomenal! Pure local and on-site made donuts (as evidenced by stacks of baking ingredients and large space with mixers). Quality outstanding, service warm and friendly. Variety satisfying (even after AM rush). Independently wonderful! ??

AMAZING place and special owners! They provided donuts for our annual Donuts with Dutchese event held at Young Achievers Christian Academy. The moms and mom figures, along with the students, enjoyed every bite. The donuts were fresh and GOOD! Thank you for your generosity and kind heart in support of our school. Ms. Charitta Smith, Academy Director

I am visiting OKC and wanted to treat my team at work! Polar Donuts popped up with good reviews and nearby. I am telling you... the donuts were great! my team absolutely loved them! They didnt have the traditional dozen ect but had a box but I was drawn to the Big Daddy Box! They stuffed that thing full with an amazing variety! You have to stop here and get some donuts if your near OKC airport!

This was by far the best experience I have ever had at a donut shop! The staff is super friendly and they offer you free donut as soon as you walk in the door. Who doesn?t love free stuff? I was in a hurry, so the variety pack they had available and ready to go was perfect! Great tasting donuts at an affordable price with amazing customer service!!

Omg!!! My brother kept telling me about this place & how he makes the donuts out of potatoes he grabbed me a dozen( winner winner chicken dinner) I couldn?t believe it these are so damn good I can never go back to Dunkin?s these are the (best donuts in OKC )!!!!!!!best believe if you don?t know now you know who knew a potato can taste so good &yummy better go get you some you won?t be disappointed promise!!!!????????

I didn't take pictures, BUT YES!!! The service was the BEST from the minute we open the door to the time it closed behind us while leaving. We were immediately offered donuts when we walked in. The lady answered any questions we had and rang us up while wishing us a good day. I inquired about their ability to donate to a local school teachers when they return to school as hug from the community and they didn't hesitate to say yes. I was asked how many dozen was needed and for what date. The cashier confirm

We stop by the place every time we come to OKC. I love that when you walk in they ask if you want a free donut. Their glazed donut is hands down the best donut I have had. The Apple fritters are awesome. I love that it?s family owned and our kids the polar bear paintings out front. Wish they had another store in Tulsa. Don?t skip out on this place.

Polar Donuts have the best donuts in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area including national chain donuts stores. Even the glazed donuts are the best ive ever had. If your in the area do your meals a favor and check out this local business. I meant to take pictures but we ate the donuts too fast. Keep in mind this shop doesn't really have a dine in option.

This place is amazing! The family that owns this shop are great people! Veteran owned as well! My wife and I get donuts from here just about every Saturday morning! And will continue the tradition forever! Thank you guys so much!

I am not usually a review guy, but my experience was so positive here. I thought I had to shout out this crew. I was greeted warmly as I walked in and immediately offered a free glazed donut. Everybody was so polite and genuine. On top of the stellar service and atmosphere, the donuts Are awesome veteran owned and operated. Highly recommend a visit shout out to these folks.

The best donut i've ever had and i will take this to Georgia so mg family can taste it..

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted and offered a free warm glazed donut.I ordered 4 filled donuts price was about $13. That glazed donut tho! Wayyyy better than the overhyped Krispy cr?me! Go support this local veteran owned donut shop! It?s worth it!

Oh my gosh do not go there unless you want to eat the most delicious freaking donuts in the positive world! I am instantly addicted to these, so delicious,light, fat and scrumptious!! What other words can I think of that are so overwhelmingly, powerful To describe the flavor and taste and absolute satisfaction Of these little circles of perfection!!! The only problem as you might eat the whole box! And at this reasonable rate, get two boxes of dozen! Otherwise you?re gonna waste gas running back for MORE!!!

Every time I visit Oklahoma City I try to go by Polar Donuts! There are no other donuts I want to eat. The texture is perfect and they are not overly sweet! The owner & employees are always nice and you get a warm glazed donut when you walk in the door! I also stop by on my way out of town to take some home!!!???? Carol

Me and my daughter stopped by 1 morning and we loved the donuts they even give you a glazed 1 for free. We will definitely be going here instead of DD or the other big name places. This place is way better and they interact with their customers

this place is how you want to start your morning. The staff is happy and excited to be there. They will have you feeling like a regular even if it?s your first visit. Happy birthday to the very nice lady who gave me a fresh doughnut!

Saw this place on a list for best donuts and thought I HAD to try it. They offered us a free glazed donut and it was amazing. We excitedly ordered a variety of their other donuts and headed home. The first thing we noticed was that our filled donuts were frozen on the inside. Which made the texture of biting into it highly unpleasant, like biting into a cotton ball. It also makes me doubt the claim they are made fresh daily, why would they be frozen? Second, the chocolate frosting tasted like cigarett

Absolutely the best donuts in OKC. Offering a Free glazed is the best.

The staff at polar donuts were the nicest people in the world. We called in a large order of donuts and coffee. They had everything ready when we got there and helped us take it up to the car. Also these were the best donuts hands down that I have had. I know that this is a big claim I'm making and I wouldn't just say it, these donuts are the best! I am going to visit Polar donuts every time I'm in Oklahoma City.

Was greeted but multiple employees when I walked thru the door and was given a baby apple fritter. Very nice people and good donuts. Read the box when we left and found out it was veteran owned. Thank you for your service.

This place is top notch! The donuts were fresh and the best I have had in OKC. However that is minor to report this family owed business all together is top notch! Everyone of the people working this morning greated me with a smile and was so happy, as a customer that just makes your day even better when you walk into an establishment and the workers are like that. Also being offered a fresh hot glazed donut was just sensational, for a first time customer here I will definitely go back.

I just stopped by here this morning for the first time to pick up donuts for my (picky) office, I got 6 glazed and 6 chocolate glazed. They were an instant hit in the office! They didn't even make it to the break room table where I usually set donuts. This will be the place we pick up donuts from here on out. The fact that they offer you a free glazed donut the moment you step in is wonderful. Fantastic donuts, amazing atmosphere, lovely to see a family run business make stuff of this quality. 5 stars a

Employees were friendly and I was greeted as soon as I walked in and offered a glazed donut. Didn?t take them up on it, but should have because their glazed donuts were fantastic. I ordered a half dozen and wish I would have just gotten glazed. The old fashioned and long john weren?t great. The chocolate icing was extremely thick and overly sweet. Overall, I?d go back just for the glazed donuts.

We LOVE this place! We get donuts from here all the time and they are always super fantastic! We dont get donuts from anywhere else.

I?ve been coming here ever Saturday morning for over 6 years, they know me the minute I walk into the door and what I want. Hands down one of my favorite local donut places.

Having just moved from Phoenix AZ, I have pretty high standards for donuts (BOSA, anyone?!). My visit to Polar Donuts was my first attempt to find a new donut shop, and it will also be my last. I can't even describe how #$%$&@^$ insanely delicious their glazed donuts are. And that doesn't even begin to cover all the creative and equally delectable other donut options they have, or the warm and familiar vibe each and every person working here has. I'm actually kind of in awe that all their reviews aren't fi

Absolutely delicious donuts! The fact that you get offered a glazed donut as soon as you walk in certainly doesn't hurt either.. my husband and I got a few glazed, a raspberry & lemon jelly, a cherry cameltoe, and a strong pimphand!!! (No, no misspelling there, folks!)Awesome friendly staff, and humor abound! You guys rock!

We love this place!! Great selection and EXCELLENT customer service. Thank you for donating to Young Achievers Christian Academy!! You made our Donuts with Duchesses this year!!!

Donuts are amazing, staff is friendly. The owner on site is really friendly and welcoming. We?ve been coming to this place for 4 years now! Never gets old.

The best donuts I?ve ever had. Great service, everybody was super nice.

I would give a 6* rating if I could. Words fail as to describe everyone there: They were all beyond friendly and always there to help, and I'm not saying that because they gave us a free (FANTASTICALLY TASTY) glaze donut. They were amazing, had plenty of options all at a reasonable price that I don't see in my town, and overall blew my mind out of the water. It all tasted great and wish something like this existed closer to where I live. Also, Lemon Glaze should definitely be more of a thing!

The donuts are fresh and delicious always greeted with a free glazed donut ! Shout out to the owner thank you for your service to the country and the continued service to Oklahoma City we love you ??????

Everything is awesome from the time you walk in the door from the time you walk out. The atmosphere is great they are so friendly, you feel welcome every time you go and you will NEVER FIND a place that makes donuts like they do!!!!! THEY ARE THE BEST!!!!!????

Excellent!! Was greeted with a smile and offered a fresh hot donut. Never been here just stopped in to pick some up for an event. Did the Big Daddy Box, and it had a great mix!!!!!

Super friendly staff. Cute place and absolutely delicious donuts!! Got a free glazed donut just for coming in!?????? didn?t do the TikTok haha but great marketing!

free glazed donut nice lady donuts taste and look amazing

I saw the owner cussing out a costumer the other day after she confronted him about bullying his female employees. He only seems to hire extremely young women who are teens and then he bullies and humiliates them in front of the costumers. That?s not very professional in my opinion. The donuts are good but my niece had a hair in hers.

The BEST donuts in town!!!! I always have to come and grab some when I'm in town! 10/10

Small mom and pop type shop. Came in from out of town. Walked in, they handed me a fresh glazed donut, free. Staff were friendly. Purchased a dozen donut holes. Great donuts. ??

Stopped by after the book fair and they were so welcoming!!! Their cinnamon rolls are HUGE! 10000000 out of 10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I was surprised to see that this establishment is owned by an African-American family only because the location is primarily where the Hispanic community is but none the less Ill support both groups. The donuts were fabulous and so was the coustomer service. I will definitely recommend trying these spots out.

The most delicious donuts in all the area very genuine wholesome service the fellowship was awesome while ordering all around great experience and environment Loved it so much and they will definitely be seeing more of me! ????????

I went here this morning with my sister to get donuts. This was my first time here. When we walked in the staff was friendly. They offered us a free doughnut. I received an apple spice doughnut. When I say this is the best tasting donut I have had in my entire life, I mean it. I have never had a donut with so much flavor. I encourage anyone who likes donuts to definitely get you some polar donuts. Hi will definitely make a return. Keep up the good work

Very friendly. Very helpful. Love the taste of their donuts

BEST DONUTS EVAHHHHH!!! AWESOME SERVICE & GREAT SMILES! THANKS FOR THE HOT FRESH DONUT ?? RIGHT AS WE WALKED IN!!!

A gentleman at church recommended that I try this place. I was intrigued when he told me their donuts are made with potato flour, are big, and the price is reasonable. When he mentioned that it's owned and operated by a veteran I just had to try it. As a veteran myself I believe in supporting veteran run businesses whenever possible. The location of Polar Donuts is 12 miles from me. That almost made me reconsider. However, he praised them so highly that Monday morning all I could think about was trying th

It?s a really nice shop. The owner is an old veteran who is super friendly. When you walk in they offer you a free glazed donut. Comes out hot and fresh made by hand.

One of the best Donuts places I've ever been to let alone OKC my go to place for fresh Donuts, very friendly staff and delicious donuts.

We work down the street from them and buy several dozen at a time and they are always fresh.. Always Good Donuts

Potato based donuts were heavy and taste amazing! The owner was there, I appreciate that he has pride in his business. I am a Krispy Kreme fan, but these donuts (& giant cinnamon roll) definitely have won me over.

Friendly staff and good donuts!

Great donuts! Really. They have funny names and the product is exceptional. Friendly staff, they even give you a free donut for coming in! What makes them even better is they genuinely care about the community. I don't go anywhere else anymore. (unless they're closed, I mean c'mon I love donuts)

Legit as close to Round Rock doughnuts in Austin, Tx as I have ever had, We were traveling for a convention and stopped in on a Saturday to grab doughnuts. Warm apple fritter, and fresh glazed doughnuts as you walked in for free. What an amazing experience!! When we come back to the area we for sure will be back!

I've never been here before. People from work would bring these in. The potato flour makes a difference, in my opinion. The staff was awesome. The kiddo got a free don't that she devoured. Would recommend

Great environment. Was greeted at the door and asked if I wanted a free donut. Of course I took it who wouldn't. I ordered my donuts,they were very tasty. I didn't care much for the apple frider I purchased but maybe it's just me. But while I was in there the owner surprised me. Did you know he even gives a free donut even if you haven't purchased anything. I saw him give a street person one. Great heart,great people !!!!! That's why I gave him 5 stars ??

Best donuts in Oklahoma HANDS DOWN. if you want to get some bomb donuts this is the place to go. You always leave Polar with a happy heart and a full belly.

Delicious Donuts!! We drive 20 minutes to get some!

Not your average donut spot! Not a ditto shop just pushing out the same boring mixes so many others are using. This place clearly making things according to their own formulas. Worth the trip just to taste something a little different. I tried a variety, risking the wrath of my gluten intolerance to maybe, finally find a fluffy, sweet but not too (painfully) sweet treat. This included a chocolate cake, chocolate glazed with whipped cream filling, and an apple fritter. The chocolate cake was light and fluf

Always excellent with very friendly staff. Only problem was the milk. Wasn?t to expire for 3 more days but it smelled horrible. These are seriously the best donuts I?ve EVER had! And the free donut is always so warm and fresh.

Being from out of town and looking for a donut shop, in Texas they have them on every corner in our town. I have to admit this donut place is pretty good. Not sure of the flour dough that is used, but it's pretty good. Prices were a little shocking a bit, overall 5 Stars.

My mom, daughters and I visited polar donuts upon arrival they let us try donut holes Absolutely amazing ?? All of us enjoyed the welcome arms and potato donuts! We will be back soon!

(July 15, 2024 Just heard that Polar Donuts uses potato flakes in the dough nuts. This explains the odd taste i suppose.)First time trying Polar Donuts. I like that they give you a free Donut, and it was ok tasting. I ordered an apple fritter and chocolate milk. The apple fritter didn't taste good, it seemed stale or made from a bad batch of dough. Not sure what it was, hard to explain the taste, it was unpleasant.

Great customer service, always offer a free glazed when you come in. The best glazed in town, light& fluffy with perfect glaze. Lost a star because they don't do cake donuts anymore, and they used to make the best cake donuts I have ever eaten. Still love going in here and the kids love getting their cereal donuts and pretty colored iced donuts.

As soon as I walked in I was greeted! My daughter and I received free donuts! I?ve never been here before because Daylight Donuts has had me in a chokehold for YEARS! This place right here?They have some of the BEST donuts I?ve EVER had! I?ve always been reluctant to even try a new donut shop but this one right here is now my Daylight Donuts. Thank you guys!!

I have been coming here since I was an elementary school kid. The owner is incredibly sweet and I still, to this day, come in and grab donuts for my mom who can't get there on her own anymore. She won't eat donuts from anywhere else haha! We have been customers for over 20 years if that tells you how good the donuts are!

First time in and the employee behind the counter complimented me so many times and offered me a free glazed! I came in looking for something they didn't have but left with my NEW FAVORITE DONUT SHOP! The chocolate peanut was delicious and their glazed are just incredible. Not to mention all of their specialty ones!! Please try this place!!!!

I absolutely love this local donut shop! The people here are incredibly friendly and they have the best donuts in town. The donuts are made with potato flour giving them the fluffiest consistency. Black owned business with a beautiful family crew that works hard to offer their delicious treats. Lots of good drinks and milk here as well. Go give them a visit and support this local place and family.

We went for the first time today and I can?t say enough about the quality! SO GOOD! The best donut I?ve had in Oklahoma with the FRIENDLIEST people! Will 100% be back!

Small store with big flavor! You won't find 30 different flavors, but you will enjoy the taste & texture. Without a doubt, the best smelling and tasting maple donut I've ever had! Dough is not your traditional white - it is more of a yellow color (I'm not sure why...maybe a potato bread recipe?) but the texture is amazing. Very friendly staff.

2/10/24- adding this to my below review. Normally I send my husband but today I went on Saturday morning around 930am and the girls were just very rude. The donuts didn?t taste as fresh as normally. Maybe they just weren?t made with love that day. Going to a place with rude front workers is such a turn off! I don?t ever expect a freebie but just note that even the donut we were given at walk in time didn?t taste fresh. It was a valentines donut and was just not as moist and delicious as normal. We probably

The donuts are always fresh and very tasty and the coffee is freshly brewed, good and strong, complimented with many different flavors of creamer for your access. The workers are always friendly and prompt The facility, always clean. The owner is a veteran and a mentor. Young and old alike, he will teach/mentor the skills of his trade to those willing to learn. He has many repeat and loyal customers, that alone validates it's 5 star reputation, well earned and deserved. In all, the atmosphere, as a wh

Awesome donuts and even better staff, if you haven't been here yet, get moving!!

The best donuts I?ve ever had in my life?not kidding. ????

The staff was very friendly and the owner greeted us upon arrival. We were offered free glazed donuts as soon as we walked in while we waited! The donut selection was great, even at 10:30 in the morning on a Saturday. My husband and I both agreed that the apple fritter was the best we've ever had...large and tasty. We will be back for sure!

Polar Donuts are the best Donuts I?ve ever tasted. I?ve been to a lot of donuts shops, tasted a lot of donuts and Polar far exceeded my expectations. The glaze donuts are lit!!! Apple Fritters are amazing. Service was excellent. If your in the OKC roll up on the Polar donut shop you won?t be disappointed. ??

2nd to none! Delicious donuts, stellar service, and unbeatable prices. The owner/manager was at the front to greet every patron. They saw it was my first time and gave me a donut to try for free - that solidified my decision to buy more than what I came in for! I will be coming back :)

This is honestly the best doughnuts I?ve ever had. It got to a point where I was coming in 3-4 times a week! They always greet you when you come in, offer a free glazed, and are always super helpful. Recently found out they are veteran owned as well! I would give it 100 stars if I could.

Wow! Regular donuts are great (Boston Cream is my fav) but they have upped their game recently!

The absolute best customer service I have seen and received in a very long time. Everyone was super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The donuts were amazing and of course they have a variety box if you can?t decide! They even helped me take the donut boxes to the car since my hands were full with an infant. Thank you guys for being absolutely great and considerate.

Locally owned, great service, awesome donuts. Fun creative names that makes you laugh. Everyone was very nice and kind in the store. Enjoy your sweets!!! Thank you and we will be back.

Mannnnnnn, these donuts are sooooooooo amazing. They offer everyone a free donut when you walk in. What great customer service. They have the ingredient for success. They have been in business for more than two decades. I am not in the area often. When I am in the area, you can best believe I will stop in. They are amazing, especially for events. Go check them out. You will not regret it!!!!

this place had very unique, funny, and most of all, delicious flavors!! veteran owned, so come out and show your support!!

To say that this place makes amazing donuts is a true understatement. They have a very simple selection but you don't need a complicated menu when it comes to donuts. From the regular and twist glazed ones to the chocolate longjohns and peach fritters, there is no way you could go wrong. I have never in my life had a glazed donut as good as the one that was warm and covered in quite possibly the most delicious glaze I have ever tasted. And if the high quality donuts, that you can never have just one of, is

The donuts were just okay. The glazed were the best but the powdered jelly, Boston creme, and apple fritter were dry and didn't taste good. The staff was friendly but the state of the facility was honestly poor. The kitchen which is widely exposed looked quite gross. The equipment also looked like it hadn't been properly cleaned. I've been to several other donut shops like missys and hurts when they are fresh. They were a lot better and cleaner than this facility. I don't mind paying 13+ dollars for 8 donut

Delicious donuts at an excellent price! Wonderful customer service.

Service is amazing. Free glazed donut while they fill your order. I brought 2 dozen to the office for a meeting. Not one donut left in the box. They really make great quality donuts.

Was disappointed at first because they did not have kolaches but I recieved a free donut when I walked in, then bought one, and a drink as well. When I got back to my truck I took a bite and was confused.. but hot damn that's a good donut! Too bad they're not close to me or I'd get fat off these!
