Love their cream puffs. Drive from Greenville to get them. Unfortunately they dont put but just a little cream in the cream puffs. It's been that way the last couple of times I went up there. I almost want to pay extra to get them to put another shot of cream in there. I like to get a little bit of cream with every bite bite but it seems like it's only right there in the front. But I do love your cream puffs when I get enough cream in them
My family and I have been to the Donut Shop before when they first opened, and they were great. Today, many months later, I paid $17 for an assorted dozen, and received donuts smaller than what you can get from Dunkin. Very disappointed to pay more money for less. Note: I've added one of the photos from their FB page to show difference in size
Wow! Just...omg! So absolutely astounded by this place! Hands down one of the best places I've visited. The dining area is sooo cozy and decorated beautifully. The biscuits are incredible and sooo delicious! Now...let's talk about the dessert options. The honeybun, cinnamon roll, doughnuts, and cream puffs taste like they walked out of a sweet cloud. The cookies are amazing also! First time customer and I will be visiting whenever I'm in Wilson. I am beyond delighted to have discovered this wonderful establ
This experience was bad. I came to drive through like normally getting a breakfast bowl with turkey link or turkey sausage. $5.60. when I pulled around and parked I noticed the car after me had got their food before me so I end up waiting 15 minutes extra and my food was wrong. it came with turkey link and bacon. Lol
My family bought gift cards at your establishment that you are not honoring. With that said you better honor those gift cards or you will go viral and we will go to the media to get the word out that your establishment is practicing fraudulent transactions. You have my word. These kids want their donuts.
DELICIOUS FOOD AND WONDERFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE! I had an omelet and Serenity had a Egg Sausage Biscuit! Don't forget your donuts ??MMS
Business definitely not the same. Call in extra slow. Your food not ready when You arrive. Tells You to pull around and park; still takes 20 + minutes. Always running out of baked items.
My chef salad and chicken salad ?? sandwich ?? delicious ?? Donuts ?? are next on the menu! After all, it is National Donut Day!
Best place in Wilson for donuts & breakfast!
3/5 for the chicken biscuit I ordered earlier this september of 2022. Biscuit was hard, chicken was overdone. Almost seems like they microwaved it. The donuts on the other hand are a 5/5. My favorite one is the chocolate glazed donut. Their donuts are so much better than any other donut shop I've tried. Soft and pillowy. Definitely recommend those to try their donuts.
Better than the light. Catch em' at the right time. Need a little brotherly love in the atmosphere. Ask for a hot dog with chili, not a chili dog?? lol.
Had a tenderloin n cheese biscuit with hash browns..word of caution..a serving of hash browns from here is huge..maybe three times the size of Bojangles..Food and service is always great..better than Krispy Kreme..my rankings.. 1 Wilson Doughnut Shop 2 Duck Doughnuts 3 Krispy Kreme
We LOVE the Wilson Doughnut Shop and The Beamon?s. They need to open another one in Rocky Mount??
Excellent doughnuts! Just go!
I was in the mood for a donut. I tend to go to most of the donut spots wherever I visit or live. Donuts were okay.
Decided to try their donuts , pastries and coffee . Not disappointed. I returned for more! Lol
We just moved to the area and I?m so glad this place is close by. The donuts are so yummy! I love the chocolate icing they use. The plain glazed donut is SO good. I will say for the best selection get there as soon as they open or as early as possible. They sell out fast.
Love Wilson Donut Shop! It is worth the wait in the drive through. Staff is pleasantly delightful...always willing to help. This is a true iconic place in Wilson. Highly recommend...it is a must try.
Biggest honey buns ever! Fast friendly service with a smile. Breakfast sandwiches are great too!
I got these when I was in town visiting my bf, and they are some of the best doughnuts I?ve ever had! My kids agreed (and they are picky!)
Stop by to grab a couple of donuts. Even though there was a long line at the walk-in and the drive-through we were able to get in and out very quickly and of course the donuts were delicious!!!??????
They have the best cream puffs!
This place is ranked in my top 3 of donut places in NC. Staff is always friendly. Donuts are always tasty. The breakfast sandwiches are second to none. Glazed cream puffs are undeniably tasty.
While the food may be Top Tier the attitudes the hidden junk not all just a few petty ones out the bunch does not go undetected. Gave me these old dried up doughnuts this morning ruin my taste doughnuts. 4 a While .
I love it!! The place is awesome and the people are super friendly I recommend them highly if your an early bird
Best breakfast and best and biggest deserts you can get in the whole state
I have always enjoyed wilson donut shoppe Donuts and for years i would buy them for company meetings and training seminars .i always said they were better than kryspy kream . I have not been there since i retired 2 years ago. i went this morning and was very disappointed Ordered12 donut holes 4 glazed donuts and 4 cream donuts. The holes were not fluffy and light they were more like clumps of dough that were soggie, there was no glaze the glazed donuts were the same,soggie clumps of dough. The cream donuts
Donuts here are great. Best you can get between Raleigh and Greenville. However the customer service is really poor. No smiles, only annoyed and tired looks. I?ve never seen anyone working here smile. On two occasions they have gotten my order wrong. On those occasions, when I simply point out they did not give me all that I paid for, they look at me like I have just said the most unreason thing they have ever heard, throw the wrong items in the garbage, give me the right items and walk off without even a w
I ordered a country ham and egg biscuit with hash browns and a drink, to go. Since I was driving 45 minutes back to Raleigh, I checked my food before driving away. The biscuit was so good!! ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? The 2 reasons I gave 4 stars: the biscuit was wrapped in foil and already it had sweated so it was wet but once I dabbed with a napkin and left the foil open at the top, it was fine; and the hash browns were like the ones at Chick-fil-A and I?m just not a fan. Plus, they were overcooked. I also ordered 2 f
This is a hidden gem in wilson ! anytime Im in the city I make sure to take a trip trip early to get some high quality doughnuts
Wow wow and wow! I love pastries, doughnuts, and good baked goods. I have sampled my share of what were less than stellar. This place was not one of those. My first indication that this place had potential was the parking lot and drive through. Both were packed and these were local folks. Now be prepared for a line and a little wait, but trust me, it will be worth it. While the inside is small, the food is amazing. Had the steak, egg, and cheese biscuit. The best part? the biscuit. It was one of
Not driving all the way back in storms for missing donut & biscut. The 100 A is impressive. Girl at drive thru nice. Order incorrect in bag but correct on receipt(of course) 1st time -_- LG honey bun. Tasty affordable donut holes. Update- 98 score now. I was told nothing they can do about the missing items. No one authorized to fix or give equal value item, call owner. Poor customer service 1st time, last time. 45 miles 1 way travel.
If I could give them no stars I would because I didn?t get what I asked for and they told me I would have to pay out of pocket for what I wanted and they messed up my order because I asked for a tenderloin with link and hoop cheese and they gave me a link egg and I don?t know if they got the hoop cheese right are not but I only went there because Flos was closed and they always get my order right and they are cheaper than here
They might just have the best hobo on a bun anywhere around. The donut holes were also a big hit around hole 6 on the golf course.
Ask for fresh ones if you want hot donuts, I went inside and was given cold donuts, with fresh ones made , like why not just give me some hot ones if I took the time to come inside ,
Was looking forward to trying the local donut shop. I love donuts but could not eat these. Donuts are sweet, I know, but these donuts are so sweet I couldn't eat more than one bite. I should have bought just one but made the mistake of buying six. Threw them all away. Also, we went very early but there was a very small selection. No variety at all. I really wanted to support a local place but will not return.
I love this place Great food and yes they have more than doughnuts they have some breakfast foods, only bad thing is it?s in a small area and it can get busy sometimes
Being going there for many years I just them love them old fashioned doughnuts. GREAT ??
Best kept secret in town. Sits so out of the way, you really don't notice it. Was craving donuts, son told me about it. I'm glad he did. Best donuts I've had in the 6 yrs I've been in Wilson. Bought a dozen donuts, after getting home with them, one hour later there were only 6 left. Also learned that they have good grill foods also. I'll try that next time. Stay tune for that review!
Great place for freshly made doughnuts daily. I would reccomend if you are in Wilson NC it definitely worth the trip stopping by and get you some.
Donuts were ok. Personally too sweet for my palette. The honey bun was the best. The service was blah. The order taker overlooked me as she was engaged in conversation with a regular patron. The service I received wasn't welcoming and it doesn't make we want to be a regular. Friendliness counts. Not only to familiar faces.
This is the first time visiting and let me just say, the donuts are absolutely incredible!!! I saw a review that said they were better than Dunkin and Krispy Kreme?THEY ARE!!! I literally found my favorite donut shop! Next time I will try one of the breakfast sandwiches!!! So yummy!!!!
Best place in town! Wow! More than doughnuts?I had an amazing chefs salad and some bright leaf dogs and they also have the best breakfast. Sausage Links are put of this world good. Best doughnuts as well. Atmosphere is first class and welcoming
Awesomeness!! I grew up eating at this place! This morning I called in an order for 48 Honeybuns for Wakefield Football, and needed them in 30 minutes! The service was outstanding over the phone and definitely in person! Thank you!
My family and I were in Wilson from Wilmington and decided to stop in to get some coffee. Quaint little donut shop. They had a pretty diverse menu although they didn't have that many options when it came to the actual donuts, we did get their closer to lunch than breakfast however. With that said, the donuts we did have were pretty awesome, the blueberry donut holes were probably the best donut holes I've ever had. Staff was ok, not super friendly but not unfriendly either, more neutral and straight to the
I stop by here frequently for my office mates in Wilson. their donuts, honey buns, and cinnamon buns with raisins are ginormous. Lol. The donuts are normal size but holy smokes. Their honey buns and cinnamon buns will easily feed 2-3 people. They?re also delicious and reasonably priced! Highly recommend them over Dunkin or Krispy.
I have recently discovered the LOVE of the Vanilla cream puffs! Glazed and UnGLAZED donuts as Dunkin Donuts was closed for renovations. There is only 1 real issue that I have is, they make a certain amount of each donut and when then are out they are out...So some can be baked at 6am and sit until 3pm?! I have tried every donut and most of the sandwhiches. My favorite though is the Cream Puffs! It is affordable as well, $13.88 a dozen! I say go before 9am to get it at the freshest and knowing that they have
The Doughnuts were good, but the young girl working in the store was extremely rude. You'd expect decent service when your dealing with a small privately owned shop like this and we left very disappointed. We drove about 30 miles and while we were in Wilson, wanted to get something special for our granddaughter. She enjoyed the doughnuts, but we won't bother the young girl working there again by making her wait on our "kind" of customer anymore.
There are only 2 places I buy doughnuts in wilson and this is the best. I do not come here often, but everytime I do, I am greeted warmly and feel welcome. The selection here is incredible. They always have exactly what I want, unless there is a variation of it and I will typical get both and the variation is just as good if not, its better than what I went in for in the first place. The staff here, again, is very nice, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. This place is INCREDIBLY clean, well kept and Ive n
Where do i begin... the donuts at this place are simply amazing! The donut holes are pure legend in Wilson. They have soo many options for the dessert case, but this MAY depend on the day & time though. For example on Friday afternoons, you may be lucky to get anything other than traditional glazed donuts. But this is just because they sell out! The owners are there a lot and are physically hands-on type owners, out front helping customers, down to taking orders & you can tell this is not corporate run. Not
My dad was a baker for over 50 years including the years in the Navy . His speciality was donuts and wedding cakes .Your donuts are fabulous . Just like my dad's. Great texture ang glazed on both sides. Love them . Congrats to the baker's. Good formula.
Everything was fresh and delicious score is a 100 nice and clean and really friendly staff first time here so she took the time to explain to me any questions i asked I got the fried chicken sandwich with the curly fries and a glazed cream filled donut, tasted one of my husband's spicy wings we will definitely be back
You already know the best donuts in town, but the worse customer service. I must retract the stars For poor customer service. Got my order wrong I had to go all the way back to get them to fix it And that's exactly what they did the same damn sandwich didn't remake me no fresh sandwich nor did they apologize for the inconvenience.
Love this place. Donut holes are the best thing you can get. Other food is still great. Amazing people, great service. Right near the whirligigs too, so grab a coffee and a donut and go see the whirligigs.
Has always been delicious in the past.They have a great cheeseburger special. Friendly staff. But Joyce and Barbara? were the 2 older ladies that used to work there. They were part of the reason I would go. I liked them. But I don't think they are there anymore. Disappointing. They both had worked there "forever". In my mind, THEY were The Wilson Doughnut Shop.
Excellent doughnuts. I brought 2 dozen for my 2nd period class who won a competition. They loved them. I also brought a strawberry filled one for myself. It was the best I have ever had. It was worth the drive.
Fresh made donuts everyday and they are delicious the sandwiches and the burgers they sell there or made to order and in your mouth and their prices are very very reasonable pretty much cheap then other places and tastes way better but I never can go there without smelling those fresh donuts and having to buy one the people that work there are very nice and can and can help you out in any way whether you have a big business meeting or just a simple party but if you need a big order you need to call a day ah
I was sold some old and stale Donuts there! When I thank back about the situation they had two places to pull from and they pulled from the one that evidently was the oldest and it was a bad batch. Unfortunately I had left the city and was not going to return just for a dozen of donuts. Could have just been one bad experience I don't know I'll try them one more time. Trust me I understand inventory system's lifo and fifo ect. Please understand that you must satisfy your customers as well!
Wilson Donut shop has the BEST donuts around!!! They have terrible customer service though. I tried to place an order of various items (3dozen) the day before and was told I had to wait until 7am to pick it up. Well, that doesn?t work for me because I have to be at work before 7am. That is the reason I placed the order a day ahead.
OLD FASHIONED! When they're hot they're better than Krispy Kreme! All fillings are traditional southern style, no Bavarian cream or exotic flavors. I enjoy those too but sometimes you want it the way it was way back when. Clean place. Seating is reasonable. Staff is nice. Prices are good. Also they serve lunch, I've never had it.
Super good food--way beyond expectation--and plenty served. They can provide sandwiches, wraps, fresh fruit--amazing! We have started using them exclusively for our company brunches. Outstanding!
Called to make sure their hours were correct.... sometimes google is wrong. Told the lady I was coming by from out of town to get cream puffs for the wife and may show up right at closing time. She asked what I wanted and told me she?d go ahead and get it together for me. Great customer service! And the cream puffs are worth driving an hour out of the way! Thank you!
Ok, I admit it, I love donuts. But that means I know GOOD doughnuts.... and these are GREAT donuts! Not a million kinds or flavors or odd toppings like coconut lemongrass - just plain great donuts. And long johns, and apple fritters, and donut holes, and..... Oh, just go. And wait in line patiently and you?ll be rewarded. They do serve other things, but I can?t tell you about those because why would I go to a place with ?Donut? in the name and order some sandwich or biscuit. Nah, just a donut, thanks.
Would give it a zero if it was an option. First visit and not very friendly or helpful. Didn?t seem to want to be bothered answering question about product. Very disappointed!!
I will let my picture do the talking....it's awesome!!!
The old lady behind the counter is rude, not friendly at all. Asked for a specific dessert, a chocolate covered long john. They just sold what was in the counter but did have several plain ones. Did not even offer to put chocolate on any of the plain ones. The lady acted like she couldn't be bothered. There was no one behind us in the line so a little customer service would have been nice. My husband asked another worker could they not but some chocolate on some of the plain ones. He was told yes. WoW real
This is a fairly new spot for me..really good biscuits and a large variety..have not had the pleasure of checking out there lunch yet but the breakfast is pretty slamming.
Not some where I would recommend
The woman behind the counter was super polite and quick to help us. The chocolate iced donuts are AMAZING!! I?m not a huge donut person, but I am 100% coming back!!
Drive thru is horrible, mask improperly worn during a pandemic and ladies seemed to chat about me asking for proper placenta before grabbing my donuts. Lady was playing with her hair over the display as well. Rude service most of the time. Tried several times and always an issue. Smh
Have always loved this place. Can remember going with my grandma when I was 5 years old. I'm way past that age now. LOL! My favorite is the doughnut holes. Really no better place to be in Wilson. There health grade is 100%.
The kitchen manager corrected my order with no issue. Mistakes happen and I see improvement here at the donut shop.
I loooovvveee the Wilson Donut Shop!!! Donut holes and cream puffs????omg you can't just eat one! I've been eating here for about 36 years now and it's the best and for sure some sweet ladies work here.
We came when the shop had a fundraiser. Special Olympics!!!! It was a great meal and a wonderful donut!!!! We will come again for sure!!! we are Banana Slap Jeep Club! Great Day!
One of my favorite places in Wilson and maybe even North Carolina. First off all, the staff are amazingly nice and always make you feel amazing. And second the doughnuts are A M A Z I N G. My personal favorite is a freshly baked plain glazed,, it just melts into your mouth! The only doughnuts better than Krispy Kreme basically. Love them always.??
Donuts were delicious. Loved the strawberry puff and lemon puff. Lots of filling used which made it tasty and got filling with each bite. Glazed were soft and scrumptious.
Thank you for an awesome wedding cake for my daughters wedding this past Saturday.
No where near as good as those melt-in-your-mouth donuts from 'Baker's Dozen' on Capital Blvd in Raleigh! These were okay, but too heavy...too thick.
I have it a four because the hash browns were not very good. It tasted like the oil hadn't been changed.
Best sandwich(ham&egg) I've had n a long time. Others are good also and the doughnuts are melt n your mouth fresh. Yum!!!!
Great food, good service. Always good to be with good company. Keep up the good work.
I love the drive up window. Prompt service, very professional. Yes I will recommend friends to the doughnut shop.
Phenomenal staff prices are reasonable service is fast love there variety of options sweets, fast food, steak also they serve breakfast all day there location is low key tho but trust me there amazing.
Great family place. Excellent donuts and even yummier biscuits. Love the little drive thru and the staff are super kind!
Consistently outstanding donuts and pastries! Good food too!
Their chicken wings are some of the best around. A wide selection of donuts and pastries available here as well... I guess the name says it all. ??
Tried breakfast for the first time. Tenderloin was okay but Country ham was great! And donuts as usual were excellent.
Their honey buns and cinnamon rolls are unreal.....go get yourself one of each and you'll understand. Get a donut or biscuit sandwich while you're at it. ????
