Customer Reviews

The staff were delightful, and seemed to genuinely enjoy serving every person who ordered during my time at one of their tables. We both ordered breakfast sandwiches one bacon one sausage, served on delightful croissants. If they weren't made fresh they fooled me, they were buttery and flaky. I also ordered an apple fritter which was amazing, and loaded with cinnamon and apple. Next time I'm in the Denver area this will be a non negotiable stop for me, and it should be for you too. P. S. Their coffee wa

Ran by the kindest and sweetest woman and her equally lovely son! The donuts are airy and fluffy and not too sweet! We stopped in on a whim and couldn?t decide between a devils food or a blueberry, we finally picked and they ended up throwing in the other one for free! You can tell they genuinely love what they do and love their customers. We will certainly be back for the wonderful people and amazing donuts! P.S. check out their awesome stickers.

Cannot say enough great things about Yummys. Best fritter ever! Make the effort and spend your money on these donuts. I am not kidding! I was greeted by a lovey lady behind the counter who actually smiled and seemed happy to help me which is practically unheard of anymore. Make sure to check out the variety of dope stickers by the register too.

I was passing through on a trip, and this was close to my hotel. I got a variety of donuts, and I have to say, I was very impressed with all aspects of the doughnut. They are larger in size compared to most. , the flavors of each style were amazing. The texture and freshness was top notch. I highly recommend this place. I wish we had one in Tucson,AZ.

I LOVE this mom and pop donut shop! Homemade goodness! And they are open til 6pm. They have some savory items as well, that I wish I did try. Next time for sure! Their 30 year old recipe is amazing! I had a raised cinnamon and coconut. Sooo good! Kiddos had glazed donuts. And a HUGE long john with Bavarian cream filling. This is an amazing place. We were served by the owners son Kice. He was amazing. Even threw in a couple extra donuts. I am so excited to find our new donut shop! I hope you go visit toda

We?ve been coming here since 2015. We now live about 45 minutes away and drove here today after trying numerous donut shops in Aurora/Parker and being disappointed by every one. Yummy?s makes the best donuts in Colorado. You can tell they take pride in what they do, and the donuts are simply the best in terms of texture, flavor, freshness. The best blueberry cake donut I?ve had since moving from Texas. Friendly folks at the front!! We will be back for as long as we live in Colorado. Thank you!

The best hole in the wall donut shop in the Denver area by far! They put together a large order for our wedding as well, instead of having cake, and it was the best decision! Wonderful, friendly service and incredible cake donuts with some unique seasonal flavors. The blueberry old fashioned is our favorite.

This will definitely be our new go-to for a donut fix. We came in to try the new Dubai Chocolate donuts and were NOT disappointed. Kies is so friendly and helped us find all our new favorite flavors. Atmosphere is really fun, lots of cool art and we had to get some stickers for our laptops and water bottles cause this is a local business totally worth repping.

The older man is very difficult to work with, his help which always is changing are great to work with. Donuts pricey but ok. I have come here for couple years but just can?t deal with the frugal older gentleman. I find him to be nasty to female customers. He needs to stay in the kitchen. I?ll be finding a new donut house, I love supporting small business, but refuse to be talked down to.

Holy heck, this place is amazing. The young girl at the counter was so friendly and helpful. Now the biggest reason for the review is..... the donuts. 1. You can tell these things are beyond fresh. 2. The flavors are out of this world delicious. We are just traveling through but so so glad we bought a dozen as they are just that dang good. The donut places in our town could take some notes from this place and up their game and then take over the local donut game!

Amazing friendly service & delicious fluffy donuts. Can?t go wrong with this spot. 10/10 will be back again!

Yummy?s donuts really are the best like others have said. They are so fresh and tasty and they have a large variety to choose from. Awesome service by the family that runs it, they are so nice. Support this great local shop!

Absolutely amazing baklava and service as well!!! I walked in with a special request for 100 pieces of baklava for an event - everyone was commenting on the wonderful baklava - it was the hit of the party! Delicious ?? and very kind, communicative service. Thank you, Yummys!

If you?re looking for the best donuts in Denver, you have to hit Yummy Donut house. Their blueberry cake donuts are nothing short of perfection?moist, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness. And don?t even get me started on their glazed twists?they?re light, airy, and melt in your mouth with every bite. But it?s not just the donuts that make this place special?the staff is amazing! They?re always friendly, welcoming, and make every visit feel like a treat in itself. I drive over an hour and a h

Love Yummy Donuts! The owners are just delightful and they make outstanding donuts. Another example of all the great family owned restaurants in Lakewood.

We love Yummys. The donuts are delicious?easily the best in the Denver metro. We?re obsessed with their Cronuts too. The atmosphere is very homey and welcoming feeling!! And the staff are super nice. This is our weekly staple!!

New customer! Best donuts and other goodies. Apple fritter is an always for my hubby. I could go on about the donuts and other goodies, but customer service is amazing! The owner is just a pleasure as well as all the staff I have dealt with....

All fresh ingredients, handmade and family owned! Breakfast, donuts and great coffee!! Highly recommend, YUMMY!

This is our go-to donut shop! The eclairs are our favorite but we always venture out and try other treats too! Their treats are always consistent so I can count on them to get exactly what I?m craving. The donuts are dense, moist, and perfectly sweetened ?this shop will always be our place to go. The staff is always so friendly too, this is definitely an amazing local business to support.

Donuts are large and tasty. Got a cherry flavored glazed and bear claw. The icing on the cherry donut all fell apart in one bite, kinda sloppy. Bear claw was very good and a great portion. Decent all around.

?When times were tough and hearts were low, This donut shop put on a show. With kindness warm and donuts free, They showed the best of humanity. Water in hand, a smile so wide, They gave with love and beaming pride. So if you?re near, don?t miss the chance, To taste the joy?they?ll make you dance!?

Absolutely the best donuts and the kindest people. Love the variety of donuts and special flavors.

Best donuts I've ever had, great price (cheaper than it said!!!) awesome service and super nice waiters. I bought 20 they are so good (also they are HUGE)

Great donut selection! Fresh and yummy. Very courteous and kind people behind the counter. I was a first time visitor and I loved the donuts and the service. Definitely recommend and will be back.

Best donuts ever! I have loved donuts all my life and this place is special. I would personally recommend the long John and the giant cinnamon roll donut.

This is a donut house, the way it should be! The staff is friendly. The doughnuts always fresh. There's one particular donut that I can't get anywhere else. Call the "Cronut". It's a croissant, turned into a donut. Because of this one item, I will probably go nowhere else ever again. This is my spot!

Every time I go the staff are the friendliest people I've ever met! Love the doughnuts and you cannot miss out on the blueberry ones.

Super super nice and friendly donut shop. The donuts are incredibly fluffy and delicious. Plus the shop is welcoming and comfortable. Will be back

We went here for the first time. We live up the hill, so it's quite a drive for us. We arrived at 11am on Saturday thinking they probably wouldn't have anything left. To our surprise, they were fully stocked. The donuts are huge! The family all said they were the best donuts they've had. There was a line, but they are so organized and efficient that we probably waited less than a minute before we were helped. There are multiple people working at the counter, and you can tell they have a system for getting p

This place is exactly what one thinks of when imagining a classic donut shop. Personable service, hand crafted donuts made by someone who cares, rich coffee, and even surprisingly good breakfast burritos. The place is a bit hard to get to (at least the first time), and could use a bit of a cosmetic refresh, but even in spite of that, they still get 5 stars from me. If you want the best selection, get there early. I made it there late morning, and many types where gone already. Still though, a good selectio

If you're looking for the best donuts in town you MUST GO HERE NOW! I'm not kidding... they make incredible donuts here whether it be the Bavarian creme filled, twists, apple fritters, bear claws, or all their cake selections, you are sure to be pleased. Oh yah, they make some pretty mean breakfast burritos too. Besides the sugar, the kids will enjoy this too. They have a window the kids can look in to see the donut making magic happening. *2021 Update: One word... CRONUT (croissant donut)! *2022 Update:

These donuts are amazing. Yeast donuts are light and fluffy. Good size. I'm usually not a fan of cake donuts but theirs are good. Probably my favorite donut place in the city. Update 9 yrs later. Still coming here for their great donuts. DEFINITELY my favorite donut in Denver... No Colorado... No the US... They're just damn good.

It's nice to have a no frills donut shop that remains amicable to their customers. They hand you a jug of creamer and let you pour your own. And their croissant donuts give O&H Danish Bakery (a Wisconsin treasure) a run for their money. The coffee is a bit on the watery side, but I like tar , not coffee ;)

The donuts are homemade, tasty and very fresh. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Definitely one of my favorite spots to get some great sweets!

The owner (I assume) was at the counter today, as it wasn't someone I usually see Sunday mornings. He was so rude to a woman in front of me. She asked if they had iced coffee to which he replied, "yes." She asked what kind they had. He told her, "ICE COFFE IS ICE COFFEE," while throwing his arm out toward the menu. I added that maybe she is asking for the flavor options. The angry, discussed look on his face was enough for me to walk out, and NEVER go back here for the clinic's Sunday morning donuts. I pref

Best donuts in Denver! Owner can come off as grumpy but he's really a nice guy if you chat with him.

The donuts here are fantastic. In the top donuts out of 30+ shops so far. Tried a Bavarian creme, a yeast, and a cake. Larger sized donuts. I might be biased, but there could have been a little more custard. I am biased because I would happily eat the custard from the tub with a spoon lol. Would be 5 stars if they lady ringing me up said anything or had any enthusiasm about the amazing donuts she was serving. Worth the 32 minute trip! Wish it were closer to home.

Doughnuts are exceptionally good they also have plenty of variety, the coffee is very delicious too. The service was really really quick. Line moved very swiftly .

The donuts are absolutely some of the best I have ever had. The owner is so kind and the service was phenomenal.

If you are looking for some of the best donuts and breakfast pastries, this is the place!! Everything is made fresh every morning and is absolutely delicious!!

Best donuts in the Denver area. They are large and delicious! My kids love it here.

Fantastic donuts. The blueberry cake donut and maple donuts are my favorites. I live in Minnesota, but if I'm ever in driving distance, it's absolutely worth the trip. I'm a bit of a donut snob. This place is in my top 2 favorites for donuts anywhere. Family owned, great service.

We asked Yummy's to provide our dessert option for our brunch wedding and could not be more pleased with the donuts and the customer service. When the donuts were set out, our coordinator had to tell our guests to stop eating the donuts before brunch was served! Working with the staff to cement our order's size, donut types, and other particulars was a breeze. They were fantastic to work with and it felt like they were happy to have our business. We cannot recommend Yummy's enough.

Great donuts, and the man gave me a bonus donut that I wouldn't have otherwise thought to try!

Yummy?s is hands down the best donuts I?ve had in my life! This is exactly how donuts should taste. Tried their blueberry cake donut, apple cider donut, cinnamon roll, and a cinnamon coconut crisp donut. Wish I took pictures, but just dove into eating them right away. The blueberry cake tastes like donuts from childhood! Incredible! The apple cider donut might be my favorite of all time. The cinnamon roll is HUGE but not overly sweet and greasy like other shops. The cinnamon coconut crisp donut is perfectly

Yummy?s is the BEST!!! I have been coming here for 10 years and have NEVER been disappointed! I am a plain glazer girl myself and feel like you can tell a lot by trying this classic anywhere you go?theirs is simply DELICIOUS! They have so many different flavors and options that it?s hard to choose! I?m not sure what kind of dough they use but it?s so light and fluffy and wonderful! Never gooey or dry?ever. I don?t understand how they do it but they are worth the drive from anywhere! I am also always so

Went to the Lakewood Cider Days festival last weekend with the sole intent of procuring enough Apple Cider donuts to put myself into a diabetic coma. Got there and the were sold out. But Yummy's Donuts, the supplier for the festival, gave me a blueberry donut for free that I would have slapped my mother full across the face for another one. Said they had some at their shop on Wadsworth and Hampden and to drop by if I was in the neighborhood. I went on Monday to collect on that challenge. I was not dis

My husband has been stopping here lately to grab doughnuts as a sweet treat & although I don't eat a lot of sweets - these are now my downfall. Amazing, tasty, fresh, fluffy doughnuts! In fact, these put the other doughnut shops to shame.

Wonderful donuts. Took my daughter there, to celebrate the last day of school before break, and we didn?t even make it out of the parking lot before half of them were eaten. Will definitely be back.

OMG It was so delicious ???? I can't wait to bring friends and family back. Huge cinnamon roll and ans It was moist and fluffy.

We?ve been coming here for years!!! They have the best selection, service, and atmosphere!!! Thanks for helping us celebrate our son who is 6 months old

This morning , My husband and son came together and really enjoyed the place and food and the services ! Said the food was SUPER AND our son loved the food ! Really like the people !

Love Yummy's. Would easily be a 5 and the best ever if they had buttercream frosting filled donuts. They only have custard cream and a couple jellies. Midwesterner here and I can't find any buttercream filled!

Donuts were very big and tasted great!

Always great traditional hand made donuts and the service is wonderful.

My mom enjoyed the pudding filled chocolate bar. I had a red velvet cake donut & beyond the color, I didn?t notice any flavor difference from a standard cake donut. Also, this one (Red Velvet) had a bit more of a crumbly/bouncy texture than I come to expect of the ?old style? donuts - it was sort of falling apart. I wouldn?t get it again for the lack of flavor and texture. Prices are also too high & is not a good value for what you receive ($7 for 2 donuts) - however, seems like all things are this way thes

$5 for two basic donuts?!? A bit absurd. I wouldn?t mind the price if the donuts were amazing but they lack flavor. They are big, soft and have a nice texture but that?s it. The chocolate glaze doesn?t taste like chocolate, it actually tastes like coffee. Perhaps I got a bad batch.

While here for a Wedding, I had to stop in today and I just was in awe with the doughnuts! I?m from SD and my Sister and Brother-in-law are from ND. The Doughnuts were the absolute best doughnuts we have ever had! The service was excellent! You will not be disappointed if you stop here! Simply the best!! Better than all the rest!!

This place is fantastic. I go almost every weekend (unless I'm trying to watch my calories that week). The donuts are some of the best I've had, and the staff is extremely friendly. Anytime I have family that come to visit I always bring them. It feels nice to go in and be recognized as a regular to the point to where they know my usual order.

Great service! Delicious food! I feel like family every time I walk through the door!!

I don't know what everyone else is going on about. Maybe Colorado just has low expectations for good donuts. But the current rating here does not live up to the actual delivered product. This place is junk. We grabbed a few types. The cream-filled long john was filled with some sort of oily, lumpy, glop. The sugared ring donut tasted like dirt. I don't know what sort of other stuff they're sprinkling on it, but blech. And then a dark-chocolate donut with a crumble on the top. Also tasted a little like dir

Opens on time and has amazing donuts. Their fresh and so good. Donuts to pastries it was welcoming and has parking space.

Nice selection, big donuts, tasted great. Will go again when I have to be back in the area.

The young man who waited on me was so welcoming and helpful. Definitely will be back. Not my experience in the past but this kid changed my mind

Best donuts in Denver. They were out of my wife?s favorite, I asked and they went back and made more just for her. Best people also. Unlike most donut shops that are out by 11:00 am on weekends, they always have a good selection after noon.

The best donuts I've had in a long time. Got about 8 different donuts, each was fantastic. Blueberry and Apple Cinnamon donuts were the best, the Ugly or apple fritter was close behind. But you can't go wrong with any of them.

I drove by last night to get the hours of operation off the door so I can get donuts for work today. The door says 6 AM I went at 6 AM. Waited till 620 didn't open. I went online and see where it says 7 AM I don't find that very good customer service and amissed sale

These are the best donuts in town and I come here every chance I get. The workers are always super nice and the donuts are consistently amazing. They have so many options that look amazing but I always get the cronut because it is so delicious. If you?re in town, I?d highly recommend checking it out.

Stop what you?re doing. Get in your car. Drive to Yummy?s for the Best donuts in Denver! (Technically Lakewood but who cares?!). A wonderful family owned small business - if you love a classic donut this is the place for you!!!

These are the best donuts I?ve had in Colorado. They charge $3 each for donuts this good in Chicago at fancy donut spot?. I like these better, the ?Cronut? is best.

I love this place! I go here a lot!! Best donuts I've ever had in my life!! People are always really friendly and helpful! I definitely recommend to any donut lover!

First time here. Double chocolate donut, glazed raised, and a breakfast burrito. And only $12! Sooooo good! Will be back this week to try a couple more donuts.

Absolutely love yummy donuts! Best donuts I?ve tried since moving out to Colorado. Blueberry is my favorite but every thing I?ve tried has been Great, highly recommend!

Family owned shop with large, delicious donuts. I recommend going early so that you can see the full selection (Apple fritters are SO GOOD but they run out). The blueberry donuts are crazy good too! Parking can be kind of annoying but *worth it

We grabbed a bunch of donuts for the whole family. All of them tasted good. A couple of the specialty donuts really shined. Worth trying.

We got a cinnamon roll, a coconut donut and the sausage roll. All were just melt in your mouth yum and the sausage roll was spicy. I wasn't expecting that. Still ??!

Absolutely delicious!!!! This little gem is a must have, please stop by and have one of their on premise made doughnuts from this family owned business.

I love this place. The donuts are amazing and the people are very friendly. The only downside is recently they switched from real preserves in their jelly donuts to the super processed fake flavored stuff that chain places use.

Yummy! Small no frills old school donut shop. The raised donut was amazing super doughy. Have to say it was one of my favorite ever glazed donut.

Always a treat when we get to stop by. If you're in the area and in the mood for some doughnuts, Yummy's is the place!

This is by far the best donut shop! The donuts here are always fresh and delicious and the staff is always friendly. I?ve always had a good experience. This is the only place I?ll buy donuts from, no other chain donut shop can top the quality of these donuts!

Came in towards closing & ordered 1 Cinnamon Donut, left with a giant freebie bag. Thank you!

Very heavy doughnuts and not from generous filling amounts. Also, insanely expensive. Pass it buy.

Seems like new ownership since I was in last. Donuts are some of the best in town but the prices have gone up off the charts. I can?t pay $28 for a dozen glazed. Sorry

The kindest employees, the freshest donuts and the best prices. It?s no wonder they?ve been around for so long ??

Update: upgraded to five stars. My wife and I agreed that these might be the best donuts we've ever had. ?? Tried their Apple cider donut for the first time at Cider Days and it was amazing! I made a special trip to their location and got there around 8:30 a.m. and they were sold out of the apple cider donuts and the pumpkin donuts. Super bummed since it was a journey to get there. If you're selling out of your seasonal donuts before 8:30 am, make more! They are very large and very fresh donuts. I'll pro

Great donuts, but prepare for a little sticker shock when you see the price.

First time at Yummy's, won't be our last for sure! Went kinda late in the day, wasn't sure how good they were going to be. But, I was craving donuts. So I figured, why not... Wow!!! I was very pleasantly surprised. Super soft, super delicious donuts. The cake donuts were moist and the cinnamon role was super soft. Jelly was on point. Very friendly and very clean. I will be back!
