Thomas Donut & Snack Shop

Food was really good! That original donut was moist and flaky and sweet but not too sweet. Got the shrimp sub and ate fries from my sisters plate and that was also good. Shrimp and fries were seasoned well and crispy. Would come back definitely

First time eating here, and we will definitely stop by again when we are in the area. We had a Double Cheese Burger, Grilled Chicken Sandwich with avocado, chili cheese hotdog, corn dogs, and donuts for dessert. Wow, is all I can say they taste amazing. The food was really good also. I would highly recommend giving this place a try if you are ever in the PCB FL area. You should leave happy...

An absolute must-visit here in Panama City Beach! The food and donuts are excellent! My only complaint is that if you don't get there early, the line gets very long. They usually do a pretty good job, though. The food is definitely worth the wait and is made fresh to order! It's right across the street from the beach and is a nice, quaint place to get breakfast or a meal! I cannot recommend it enough!

Hands down the BEST donuts I?ve ever had! I stopped by Thomas? Donuts solo and ordered 6 donuts?every single one was light, airy, and packed with flavor. As someone who travels often and is a true foodie, I can honestly say these are the best I?ve ever had. I also grabbed a chicken salad sandwich, and it was just as amazing. Whether you?re a local or visiting Panama City Beach, this spot is a must-have. Don?t miss it!

We stopped by Thomas Donuts after hearing it was a must-try while in PCB. I?ll say, the donuts really were delicious. Super fresh, pretty to look at, and definitely lived up to the hype in terms of taste. The location is great too. It?s right off the beach with plenty of parking, which made it easy to swing by on an errand filled first day at the beach kinda morning. That said, the staff didn?t seem thrilled to be there. No smiles, no greetings, and they acted like we were a bother for asking questions or

Arguably the best donuts in the panhandle. The shop is right near the beach and was packed! The donuts are to die for. Huge selection of donuts and other items. We also had a lemonade. The workers are super nice and they even gave our toddler some free donut holes which was extremely friendly. I like the ambiance too. Amazing little stop.

The donuts were decent, the iced coffee was arguably one of the best I?ve ever had and that was a huge surprise. For some reason both my husband and I thought the donuts were better the next day than they were fresh? This is definitely a fun place to stop by for the experience. Location is beautiful.

Donut was absolutely amazing. So fresh! Reasonably priced too! A good plan would b to go here for breakfast and walk across the street and enjoy the beach. You can have lunch here too! Beautiful. There is seating in the shade too. I keep going back! ??

Really good donut shop - especially if you want the beach vibe (and not just strip center donut shop). No joke to get there early. 9am arrival = 40 min line. It did move quickly tho. They separated the line into the 2 shops: one for just donuts & the other for donuts + the other stuff. The donut line was at least covered. Plenty of picnic tables. Tiny lot but beach street parking all around. We tried the crazy donuts and they were all pretty good. Would I go back? Sure, but at 6am when they open ??

If I could describe what heaven tastes like in a donut, this place would be it! Oh my gosh! So delicious! We definitely will have to make this a place to visit on vacation each trip.

The doughnuts are great, but everyone in Panama City knows they are great so be prepared to get there early or wait in line. But the wait is definitely worth it. They are located right across the street from the beach, with great views. They also have pizza and a patio where you can eat and enjoy the beautiful view. Would definitely recommend eating here.

There are some great donut places in Destin and Panama City areas but this is one of my favorites. I keep coming back each time wanting to visit Thomas donut and snack shop. Great people that work here very kind and the donuts are absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend this place to all my friends, family, and vacationers.

I thought I had gone to donut heaven! The biscuits & gravy were excellent, and so were the bacon & egg biscuits. The coffee is good and hot.

Super delicious donuts! But such a bad experience with the cashier service she was really rude didn?t ask if we needed something she was just looking at us with a rude face expression did not say a word to us and also she pick up the donuts with same gloves she was dealing with the tip money moving to another container.

Old fashioned donuts at their best. The line will be long for a reason. You will understand once you take your first bite of donuts. And you can't beat the prices.

We were recommended Thomas' donuts by our host. The donuts are delicious. My daughter also had a burger and it was good as well. Our first time here, but definitely not our last.

OMG The most delicious donuts I have ever had. The sour cream cake was light and fluffy. The lemon filled OMG And the apple fritters you could taste the flavors. I definitely recommend. The shrimp po sandwich was a bit small but it tasted great. Please check this out when you visit Palm City beach They also have ice cream and cold treats as well!

Classic tradition in PCB. We've been going here for years and they keep getting better. Fresh and delicious, they have all the donuts displayed in a convenient, attractive way and you can't go wrong with any of them.

Great food and great donuts and I got the bacon egg and cheese bagel so good then we went across the street to eat

Waited in line for a while but so worth it!!! We ordered donuts and biscuits?so yummy! Sue is a sweetie!!!

We've had pizza and bakery. The pizza was the best we've had, reminding us of pizza from home in Cleveland OH. The bakery was good too. Both shops are walk ups. Order at a window then sit and watch the Gulf, maybe the sunset, until your order is ready. Clearly very popular.

The donuts are amazing!! Go early to avoid long lines. The cinnamon twist is my favorite!!

One of the best places you can get a good meal at a good price. Ordering us usually quick during off season, and the quality of food is unbeatable.

You must try these donuts! Absolutely amazing! We have been 3 times in one week. Love the selection of donuts the birthday cake was our favorite. Kids loved it! It?s now a must stop place every time we visit PCB!!

We have been coming to Thomas doughnuts for years we have tried all the new places but Thomas doughnuts has no competition great breakfast great lunch and the best damn doughnuts in Florida keep up the great work ????

I've been coming here since I was little, my beach house is a block away and I love Thomas? Donuts. I hope it never changes!!! I love seeing the vintage look and seeing the old pictures of Mr. Thomas. The vibe makes me feel like I'm going back in time to when I was a little girl. I hope it never gets modernized for the big crowds of people they have been getting. I'm so so happy business is booming. Please never change the original Thomas?!!!

Best donuts i have ever had. Fast service, too many incredible options for donuts and other breakfast foods. The cookie butter donut, blue berry delight donut, salted caramel, amd so many more. Highly suggest this place.

The best donuts I have ever tried. The food is amazing, the iced coffee is great, and the service is fast. However, the lines get very long here. Which is obviously a good thing. So i recommend going really early in the morning or later in the day.

Best donuts I?ve ever eaten. Fresh, flavorful, tasty, just fantastic!!! Nothing line the chain donuts you usually get. These are far superior!!

I love this place! The donuts are amazing. I always get the turtle sundae. I think that?s what it?s called. It?s just enough that I don?t feel guilty.

This place has been in this location since I was a kid. While I'm sure the name has changed since then, it still brings back those childhood memories of a group of kids walking from our hotel down the beach to buy donuts. The menu has changed to include much more. The food is great! The service is amazing, the staff are incredible and the place is a classic! Make it a stop on your beach trip! You won't regret it!

Charming old timey beach vibes. Kolaches are delicious! Worth the wait.

Their donuts are to die for! We stopped here twice on our visit and got a bunch to take home. They lasted for days and were all so good! Don't skip this place!! They even have cute water bottles! Oh and their breakfast biscuits are amazing!

I think I have tried all the donut shops in the area including the donut hole By far the best is Thomas. The dunking place is the same price on a dozen and now just a run of the mill joint Thomas is fresh large lots of filling and the same price of lesser establishments.

???Exceptional Service And The Open Air Is Immaculate! Right Across The Street From The Beautiful Sea?Sun, Donuts, Sea And Sand, YOU CAN?T BEAT THAT???????????

If you want to indulge in hand-made donut deliciousness, this is the place to go. We only had donuts and ice cream, which were also delicious, but the grill did look great as well. We'll be back one day.

FANTASTIC donuts ??, highly recommended for anyone wanting to know what a Fresh Real Homemade donut tastes like.

Had an awesome time at Thomas Donut & Snack Shop,Jada was an amazing cashier! Loved my ice cream with that perfect beach view.

Simply the most fresh and delicious Everything!!! Then you have great customer service ??

We have been to Thomas? many times. It is always delicious and the atmosphere is perfect for the beach. We love getting ice cream and walking on the beach. Today we ate breakfast and it was tasty and enjoyable.

Good donuts for the price point. There was a line to wait in but it went fairly quick. The taste- I was craving a good key lime and the donut i got did not hit that spot. It was still good, just not enough lime flavor.

Beautiful donuts, tasty. Great place for tourists. The biscuits and gravy were delicious. The bagel with jalapeno link, egg and cheese was gross. Bagel texture was not good and flavor was blah! You could hardly taste the jalapeno link. This place can get expensive quick. In summary, I would return for donuts and that's it!

I?ve been coming here for quite some time over the years. This place by far sells the BEST donuts I?ve ever had. The service is really fast for how busy it always is. The other food besides the donuts are also amazing. The sandwich?s, kolaches, biscuits doesn?t matter I have NEVER been disappointed by this great Florida staple. If you?re looking to get a good sausage biscuit, fried chicken biscuit and something sweet this is definitely the place to go. I come here a handful of times when I?m here on vacatio

Great rock and roll donut place. It's a Mainstay in the community and I'm very happy to report that it never disappoints. I must say that the service itself sometimes it's a little bit less than awesome. But no big deal.

Waited in line around 8am for the donuts. I wasn't entirely impressed with them for as much raving as I've heard, but they weren't bad. A tad too sweet (in my opinion) and all the pudding filled flavors tasted pretty similar, just super sweet. That being said, the drive from PCB there was lovely, and I enjoyed the atmosphere and seeing the excitement of kids and their families waiting eagerly. I would visit again for a little treat.

I?m from out of town and my family begs the next morning to make this our breakfast and left overs for snack. So amazing and delicious. Not overly sweet, very light cream and not a bulky full feeling like other doughnuts unless you eat 6 like my 19 year old. Go the first morning we arrive and as we leaving for home stop again. Decent price I think for a dozen mixed or regular under 15 check website though. Many options and all delicious

This person was rude and acted all smart. After making us feel stupid, she FORGOT to order our food?we had to reorder and pay at the other window. The food was okay but definitely not worth the wait, no seats, and rude service.

The donuts were great! The raspberry filled donut was loaded with raspberry filling, and the donut dough was delicious. Try a biscuit with bacon, egg, and cheese. It's so yummy! Just so you know, there is a long line outside for ordering, but you can also go inside to order. We were able to order inside right away. There is also seating inside.

I went to the bakery early between 6 and 630. I ordered the small biscuit and sausage gravy with a small grits and the smoke sausage with cheese kolaches. When I got back to the motel, the order was correct except for the kolaches. I got a sausage biscuit instead. I was disappointed because I really wanted to try the kolaches. Guess I will try again next trip to Panama City Beach. My advice.. check your order before leaving. The staff was nice.

The line was very long but everyone in line was saying that the wait was totally worth it. We waited and honestly the line moved pretty quickly for how long it was. We got to the front and they still had plenty of donuts at 9 AM. The staff was very efficient. And MY OH MY the donuts are the BEST I have ever had! Highly recommend.

Good donuts, I didn?t care for the kolaches, but they aren?t what I?m used to (in Texas) so maybe that?s why. Very busy place, right across the street from the beach. Had the pizza and they got the toppings wrong but the crust itself was delicious. I?d go back, but wouldn?t wait in a long line for anything again.

Love everything about this place, they are amazing and deserve all the praise. I love the donuts and the food!

Great place to grab a bite at the beach that is local! The variety of the donuts is great and they taste fantastic! My favorite is the old fashioned! But go back for lunch and grab a pizza and hang out beach side to eat. They're really good!

I visited two separate times, and the second time the line was significantly longer (see picture) but I didn't have to wait long once placing my order. The donuts and biscuits and gravy were pretty good and worth the price. There are several reviews that mention bad customer service or the staff needing training, and I didn't have a bad experience either visit. They took my order and gave me my food without any issues, but weren't overly friendly. I can see how people from out of town may be expecting chee

Best ice cream on a hot summer day. Waffle cones are divine but will make a mess if you don't eat fast. Breakfast is awesome but a restaurant of this caliber is expected to be a whole level of busy if your not an early bird. Krispy Kreme has some competition here!

I have been here for I've cream and donuts on 2 separate occasions. Ice cream eat in, donuts take out. The location is beautiful. Honestly the Sunday was good, but the donuts were 1000%. Maple bacon ?? is amazing. ?? I'd definitely return for donuts. Its dog friendly, which definitely get points from me. Beautiful views and good parking.

Donuts, chicken sandwich and onion rings were great. Cheese fries were super salty. Lady who took our order wouldn't speak up so I had to keep asking her to repeat herself. All the menu prices have been wiped off the board or faded so the price is a surprise. We couldn't find a sign that said if biscuits are sold all day either( they are not.) Food was good but probably wouldn't rush back anytime soon.

If you want a tasty treat then you found the right place. The doughnuts are heavenly.

Waiting in line is part of the experience. The key lime pie donut was heavenly and cinnamon twist excellent.

Popular local joint for donuts and breakfast goodies. Friendly staff (everyone in FL is friendly) that is pretty efficient! Kolaches are good , I had the jalape?o sausage and the donuts are good as well. I went for the apple fritter and it was a bit dense, not the best I?ve ever had as I rarely stumbled on an apple bit? but it was tasty!

It's not a trip to the beach without Thomas Donut! Perfect view, great donuts and lunch/snack options; this place checks all the boxes. There will be a wait for donuts in the morning, just how it goes. We've been coming for 15 years and have yet to be disappointed.

Have heard so much about this place and finally got to go and it was definitely worth it. I had an applewood smoked bacon and Swiss biscuit and a devil?s food cake donut and they were both so good I got them again the second day we went! My group all had their favorite types of biscuits and really loved the chicken and tender loin as well as the old fashioned and cr?me filled donuts. Definitely worth it!

It?s not a trip to PCB without their donuts! Everything is so fresh and truly delicious. I?ve never had their biscuits before but tried one today and it?s honestly the best biscuit I?ve ever had. It has the perfect homemade texture and buttery flavor. I also had an apple fritter as big as both my hands ?? I got a dozen donuts to bring back home for family and will continue adding them to my list of places to visit every time I?m in PCB. Parking has never been an issue and they have big tables outside for yo

Love it ??!!! We stayed in the cabin directly across the street. We noticed all the activity in the morning and late in the day and wondered what the attraction was. I like donuts, so one morning, I got up and walked over. I got a variety of donuts to taste and sample. The key lime was special. Tasted like eating a miniature pie. I added a pic of the cabin and views of Thomas' from the beach. That is how close we were. There was a large selection of beach foods to eat. We ordered pizza for a beach d

Oh man, where to start! We stayed 2 houses down from Thomas Donut (this is our second year) and every day we would hop over and get us some cheese grits and a delicious muffin before heading out to the beach. In the evenings we would go get ice cream, whether it be a shake, banana split or just a cone of ice cream?. So yummy.

Literally the BEST donuts that we?ve ever had. The maple glaze is delicious and the softness of the donut was perfection!! The basic donuts such as maple and original glaze were approx $1.50. A no frills venue with outdoor seating on the deck opposite the ocean. Incredibly popular with large queues by 7.30am.

Great food! We loved the outdoor seating.

This place is AMAZING!!! We made it almost a daily stop even though it was 20 mins from our hotel. Their breakfast sandwiches are good and taste fresh. The donuts are another level! The M&M, s'mores, long John and fudge donuts (with cream and Oreo) were our favorites! You HAVE to try this place if you're in the area. Reasonable priced too for the size of donuts you get. They have seasonal and other flavors of donuts too to try. There's a lady there named Tamara and she's so sweet! She's the best and such a

The staff was extremely nice. The wait time was not bad. Beautiful view of the beach while you wait. And the food was terrific. Everything was cooked fresh and the portion sizes were great! We're adding this to our list of must haves!

Best donuts ever! And best key lime pie hand dipped ice cream ever! I'd researched before we vacationed in the area and it was well worth it! All the staff was awesome and my son got a pizza that was fantastic!

Amazing donuts and the vanilla iced coffee was phenomenal! Cannot recommend this place enough!! ????

DO NOT MISS THIS GEM!!! I?ve always consider Gibsons donuts in Memphis TN the untouchable pinnacle of donuts. Today I was showed Gibsons doesn?t corner the market on great donuts. Thomas donuts are huge and fluffy with the perfect amount of icing. Im a sucker for the OG glazed donut and not much on the new fancy concoctions and this glazed donut set a new benchmark in my life for donuts. The kolaches sweet also very good along with the cheese grits. This place is a one stop shop as it offered pizza, ice cre

We always have to make this stop while in PCB. Custard Long Johns and Apple filled are my favorites.

Top shelf ice cream and donuts. The food is amazing too. Definitely fill your beach bag with some famous texas style Kolaches. They also do great pizza and more. It really is a one stop shop. The beach views and access is awsome. They even have draft beer. We no longer need to leave the beach.

The food is horrible. My chili burger was the worst burger I have ever tasted. I threw most of it in the trash. My girlfriend said she felt sick after eating half of hers. She also threw hers away as well. The view is ok. Car exhaust adds to the charm of the taste. I didn't have a donut so can't say if they were good or bad. It was also extremely expensive. Burger the size of a McDonald's hamburger for 12 dollars. Never again for me and my family.

Overall 3/5. Service 2/5. Food 4/5. Did not have a great experience but donuts were good. I visited Thomas? Donuts this morning shortly after opening; It?s Wednesday and the first of August. My friend and I got there a little before 6 and there was a single line of about 5 people waiting. Once the place opened, everyone in line (including my friend and I) didn?t seem to know how to proceed ? I?m assuming they were first time visitors like us. Anyway we ended up forming two lines; one at each window. My fr

The best donuts we have ever had. Stopped one morning while on vacation, because they were highly rated. It was so good that we stopped and picked up a dozen on our way back home. They have a huge selection of made fresh daily donuts, with some nice specialty ones. I can see why they are so loved by everyone that goes there. If you are in the area, we highly suggest stopping and grabbing some delicious donuts. They also have breakfast sandwiches you can order, but we did not try any of those. We were there

Food was very good and even better was the happy, smiling young ladies in the donut shack. Nice to see employees enjoying themselves.

Great family owned, local business! You won?t be disappointed - if you see this you should go!! The donuts are great, the ice cream is great, and the food was very good too! Very convenient location right across from the beach! The sour cream donut was a must. The burger, fries, and onion rings were great. Philly cheesesteak was low on onions/peppers, but high on flavors!

Have heard about this place for years ... finally made it here! Large selection of donuts!!

After hearing great things about their donuts, I was excited to try this place out. Waited about 30 minutes in line around 8 AM, which I expected since I knew that this place had a lot of business. I wanted to try a variety so we got about a dozen donuts which roughly brought the total to about $30. As far as taste? my husband and I were incredibly disappointed and underwhelmed. As I said before, I got a variety to try and all were just.. meh. Probably won?t be giving it a second chance as the service was n

Absolutely loved the donuts and another thing that really made me happy with my visit was that this is one of the only locations I've found on the beach to get a decaffeinated coffee, believe me I looked high and low and for some reason its hard to come by, they are popular for a reason! You will not be disappointed!

You need to check out this place if in the area. The donuts are delicious along with the chicken and burgers. The ice cream is a perfect way to cool down on hot days. As you can tell I ate here multiple times on my week of vacation and was never disappointed while sitting on the deck looking at the ocean. Happy to report they now have pizza at night. Which is delicious like all the other food. Still my favorite vacation place to eat in PCB area.

Nice, local donut and kolache shop. Great food, great staff. Nice place to walk to in the morning for a pastry or a little more. We purchased outside and sat at the outdoor tables. It can get crowded and a considerably long line at times.

We walked there along 30A, great morning walk. Donuts are fresh and taste great, not super sugary but with tons of unique recipes like red velvet, strawberries and cream, and sour cream. Must try this spot if you love donuts and are in the area. They also have pizza, breakfast sandwiches, and homemade biscuits. Great family owned business.

Been coming here for 20+ years. Always get breakfast and donuts several times when staying in Panama. Get there early or the line is long. Staff are always fast and friendly. Steak biscuit and maple bacon donut are a must.

We got 3 fabulous pizzas. Bbq chicken. Let's meat at the beach. Margarita pizza. My wife got the beach bun. A donut filled with ice-cream. Highly recommend.

They have a huge selection of donuts to choose from. They are really good. They also have different sandwiches and build your own breakfast sandwiches to. We also had lunch and it was good also. Line can be long but it goes really quick.
