Customer Reviews

I ordered the letter donuts for my son?s 10th birthday and he absolutely LOVED them! The gentleman that helped me, was so patient and helpful throughout the ordering process. The donuts weren?t only fun, but absolutely delicious too! Thank you, Spare Donuts!

My girlfriend and I went for the first time today and got doughnuts, burritos, and a blended Thai tea. We absolutely loved it! The burritos were surprisingly thick, the doughnuts were sweet and delicious, and the drink was stellar. The gentleman at the counter was super patient and friendly, and we both agree we'll be going back soon.

Hidden gem of a donut shop. Well worth the 5 star rating as the freshness and flavor of the donuts will not disappoint. The boudin and smoked sausage kolaches are amazing! Everything has been flavor packed and fresh. The customer service is ultra friendly and enthusiastic. Spark up a great conversation while they bag up your order.

Super duper fast!!! Great option when you're running behind and need a breakfast option for the kiddo. Breakfast sandwiches and donuts with delicious ice coffee. Super sweet staff. I will be back. Love love love this place. Awesome variety of all the things.

Today we stopped for donuts at Spare Donuts for the first time. We got two dozen for our dog club and every single donut was eaten and they were very good. We will be back without a doubt!

Went to this place a few weeks ago and loved it came back and had the same experience everything there is fantastic especially the boba and cronut. Dude behind the counter is so nice it?s worth coming back just for the customer service alone. Don?t skip this place.

The donuts I got were all super tasty! I ordered the glazed donut holes, two filled donuts, an old fashioned, and a chocolate covered buttermilk bar. I tasted them all upon arriving home and liked them all. The donut holes are light and airy and sweet, and the old fashioned has the perfect texture. The buttermilk b

The man who helped us was very nice and gave us time to pick out whatever we pleased. And don?t get me started on the donuts, they were so delicious. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Best donuts on the Northshore. From the regular glaze to the glazed blueberry cake. Always fresh and super friendly. I go atleast twice a week. ??

By far the best experience ive had at any business in awhile. On top of the AMAZING customer service, the food is just as outstanding. My favorites are the turnovers and breakfast sandwiches, but i have yet to try something that wasn?t delicious. I am not one to leave reviews, but the owner and business deserve all the praise they can get!

I passed here many times and decided to stop in and order a few donuts to try. I ordered an apple fritter, vanilla cake donut, blueberry cake donut and a maple bacon donut.
