Omg!! These are the best donuts I’ve had while in Tucson and I’ve had a few. They have this amazing crunch on the outside and soft texture on the inside. I almost crashed while eating the glazed donut in the car due to having an out of body experience. And don’t get me started on the cinnamon rolls! You will be doing yourself a disservice by not trying them.In addition to the amazing donuts, the staff was incredibly friendly and explained the menu to me. It’s rare to find great customer service like that these day. I will be back

This is a gem of a donut shop. Stopped in here to bring in donuts for my co-worker. These are all fresh made, and very tasty and a nice selection.. Nice and friendly service. I dont usually eat donuts except once or twice a year, but I would come back here again because they were so good!

Im consider myself a donut expert. I thought I knew the best places in Tucson to buy them...and then I bit into Heaven. Melt in your mouth, fried dough, covered in chocolate, PERFECTION! Bar none, the best donuts I have ever had. I see a gym membership in my near future, and I hate exercising..but itll be worth it.

Donuts are always so yummy. And they have broasted chicken, which is SO good!!

Donuts were super fresh and decorated in such cute ways!!! Both times we have visited service has been excellent! You cannot beat these delicious donuts at such a reasonable price! Will be back soon!!!

Nice little place. Their donuts were super fresh and really tasty. They also do broaster chicken that was nice and juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The staff are super nice too.

Good customer service provided here 😀. I ordered 2 dozen variety donuts which was just under $30.00. The quality of the donuts were very unsavory. Some tasted fresher and some tasted not so fresh. The quality of the items was bad. Not much flavor or taste. Not much frosting or toppings. The people I bought them for, barely ate any of them because nobody liked the donuts. It was my first time trying out Alvernon Donuts and now I know it was also my last time eating here.... 😬👎🏽👎🏽🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩

Clean space. donuts look & smell great. No kolaches. They don’t make them or carry them per the owner / manager. So previous reviews saying they have them are mistaken. If I were in the market for donuts tho’ - would come back.

Hands down the most amazing donuts Ive had and Im from San Francisco California where the donuts are king. Staff is super friendly every donut Ive tried has left me amazed. And the croissants are to die for warm flaky on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. Just talking about Alvernon donuts makes me want to run over and grab some now.

Really good donuts and treats for a good price. The ham croissant was so good

Was nicer then I thought! Lots of donuts choose from love love it!.

This place is great. I came in to try some kolaches but their oven was down. However, the smell of fresh donuts was so intoxicating, I couldnt resist. I picked up a mixed dozen and a couple small apple fritters. My crew loved them. The fritters were quite tasty

This is the size of a plate, and one of the best apple fritters Ive ever eaten, other donuts are so soft and fresh, a excellent donut variety and flavors....a must try n return shop, very friendly

Super delicious donuts especially the apple fritters, will be coming back again

Super nice people. AMAZING croissants and donuts. Fresh, warm and fluffy inside and perfectly fried dough outside. Its definitely worth making it a regular spot! 💞

Still have the most wonderful donuts! And a wide variety!

Ya gotta love it, many varieties, all fresh... just the opposite of Dunkin donuts. We go here often

Good variety, quick service. My twisted donut was tasty.

There chicken and donuts 🍩 are great

Donuts were fresh and very airy. Apple fritter was crispy on the outside and nice and light on the inside. Friendly staff !

One of the absolute best places to get some delicious donuts and some delicious chicken too!!Whatever you decide, you wont leave disappointed.

Great donuts always fresh, and the bomb fried chicken. Sooo good. AAAAAAA+++++++

Nice neighbourhood donut shop prices are good and products also tastes good...

Lots of options, friendly staff, tasty donuts!

Nice people and good donuts, cant ask for more than that!!

Donuts & yummy chicken in one place!👍😁🥰

The best donut shop in Tucson, hands down. Ive been coming here for over 10 years. The donuts are amazing but the staff makes this place special. And they care quite a lot about keeping this community healthy, and that means so much.

Oh my god theyre so good

I dont know what its like because I have not been able to get there

Delicious. Dont overindulge, its too easy. Theyre addictive if you have a sweet tooth. Youve been warned😋!!!--> Afterwards, hit me up for a fitness training session!

Best donuts in Tucson hands down. Best selection and variety. Family owned! They are so kind here. Drive through is great for COVID times

Great service, donuts are always fresh! Option for drive thru & preorder 😍 family is super sweet !

Very fresh deep fried donuts on hand. A wonderful display as well. Alvernon donuts tastes as good as they look too. Great service with a Smile 😃.

Alvernon donuts always has great tasting home made flavors. And now they have amazing chicken. Only thing better could be is if they served waffles. Love this place but my dad bod doesnt.

We will find out how good their chicken is. Too bad they were out of the apple cinnamon donuts.

I have been here before, but not since reading Yelps best donuts piece a few months back. We arrived in the afternoon so literally, half the donuts were gone (plus the gal said they had several big orders that day). Not to worry, they had enough for us to make a nice varietal fancy dozen. The donuts are VERY fresh and tasty... pillowy melt in your mouth donuts. The shop itself is very old-school looking, and they obviously put their efforts into their donuts more than their decor. The best thing apart from their tasty donuts -- the service. It is obviously family run and the daughter of the owner assisted us. She was really sweet, put up with our indecisiveness during selection and all with a smile.

Their donuts are the best in town, they also have great fried chicken and ham and cheese sandwiches (ham and cheese in a coissant). Everything weve had here has been so good, but the surprising stand out for me is actually their potato salad, its just so unexpected! A donut shop with great potato salad? But it is really good, the best Ive had in Tucson. Try everything, youre not going to be disappointed!

I love the donuts here and my kids as well love coming here

Great customer service. Amazing donuts.

Trust me, one of the best donut decisions you will ever make is Alvernon Donuts. Also, they have other goodies to eat but you have to see for yourself!

Yummy so delicious

Freshest donuts in town.

These donuts are GREAT!! Their staff is very kind and was very willing to help us. I would recommend this place to anyone that eats food!!Megan(13)I love the samples and the actual size was huge. I also love that the people were very nice to us!!!!😂🥰❤️Elise(10)Excellent service, fresh delicious donuts. ❤️❤️ Only recommendation- more cream in Bavarian Cream donuts. We got halfway through the two we purchased before we got to the cream. 🤷‍♀️

Love this shop! Staff are always so friendly and accommodating. Great, quick breakfast stop. Their croissants are the best!

Just got my first donut from here. Staff was super friendly and the price was great! Donuts taste amazing as well!

Wonderful staff. Great donuts and they also have chicken! Yay. :)

Best Donuts ever and at a great price as well..

Fantastic donuts! Great variety as well!

It was good! always stop for a warm Ham and cheese croissant

One of the nicest donut shops Ive been to in a while. Tables are clean and staff is friendly. They make very good ham and cheese croissants. I like to stop by whenever Im on that side of town.

Greate service and donuts

This is our favorite donut shop in Tucson! Their apple fritters are the best Ive tasted anywhere (and we love a good donut shop). You cant get a bad donut here, but Id recommend their bear claw, the maple bacon donut, the croissant, and the blueberry. And the nicest family owns it. AND you can order a giant donut, any flavor, for a birthda! We got the maple bacon and it was a HUGE hit! Still tasted amazing!

The donuts arent as good as the Donut Wheel on Golf Links and Kolb but the Broasted Chicken was work the drive

Oh my ! Heavenly melt in my mouth. Ahh!

Amazing delicious fluffy

These are the best donuts that Ive ever had in Tucson. I come here once in a while. Wonderful staff and great service! They have a great variety of donuts; all the colors and flavors. This is a definitely Ill be back spot.

Absolutely love this place!!!

Best place to go and great family.

I love coming here! Always so fresh and the quality is amazing. The flavors and the variety of donuts and other offerings are so good. Theyre always a hit when I take them to the office and have become the place to go for donuts. Plus the prices are so low for such amazing quality! Definitely recommend stopping by and dont forget to try one of their big pastries or the ham and cheese for breakfast!

Great cinnamon glaze donuts

By far the best donut shop in Tucson. I drive from three points to here just for donuts.

Weve established Alvernon as our favorite donut shop! Perfect texture and taste. Always friendly and helpful staff in our experience. We were sure to support them during this time and recommend them to everyone!

Best apple fritters in town!

Opens early and the ham and cheese croissant is very good

Good donuts but poor seevice

Great.

Dam good donuts, the best in the city in my opinion.

Nothing fancy, but has the best donuts in town.

Awesome donuts and good people will return

Amazing donuts

Delicious and always fresh! My favorite donut place.

We have been looking for a great donut shop since moving here from Colorado and we finally found one. This place is great. The cashiers were friendly and the donuts we were wonderful. We will be back.

Bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers are off the hook delicious! And their donuts are ridiculously good as well, donut holes melt in your mouth

You want a donut?? Theyll get it for you...! Homemade maple pershing.! If they have a Pershing, they will make the maple flavoring for you which is very good...! You probably wont need that much..! Handmade Donuts.!

Needed a quick donut run & Google delivered. Not familiar with Tucson but these were delicious! Dont let the exterior fool you. Very fresh, clean store & tasty food!

These are definitely some of the tastiest and freshest donuts in all of Tucson! Alvernon Donuts has a huge selection of donuts to choose from and what really makes this place worthwhile to visit, is the CUSTOMER SERVICE. Staff is always upbeat and appreciative for your business! Go get your donuts here and make sure to include the glazed buttermilk in your dozen! Highly recommend :)Please like the review after viewing! :)

Best fritters in Tucson, he said. Hmmm, I said. He was right. 😄👍👍 Its a bit far for me though, so when I sometimes get a fritter from elsewhere, it always makes me sigh and wish I had the fritter from Alvernon. If youre gonna eat donuts, might as well eat great ones. Alvernon has em. To boot, the gentleman (owner?) was super generous and friendly when I visited for first time with family. Prices are good too.

OH...MY...GOD! These are the best donuts Ive ever tasted! Theyre fresh and melt in your mouth much like crispy creams. But Ive always found crispy cream donuts to be way too sweet. This place has the perfect balance of sweetness, the frosting is spot on and the donut itself is light and airy. Im only going to buy donuts from here from now on, oh and the nice lady behind the counter gave me a bonus cinnamon roll!

I can see why this place has an overall 4.8 rating! These donuts were amazing. I cant even name just one that was great! I could eat these everyday!

By far the best donuts in Tucson! When moving to town I had to find my donut fix & growing up in small Tx town good donuts are a must. After many failed donuts I found this awesome family run shop & my search was over. They are always fresh & a great selection... As with most shops the earlier the better selection. Fresh coffee. Drive through if in a hurry. There only downfall.... Closed on Sundays... But they definitely deserve a day off! I will also note, only get what your gonna eat that day... Truly great donuts are not good the next morning. Worth driving out of the way!

Nice tucked away shop. Delicious and grwat prices. Very kind service. Has a drive thru also.

Did a little donut research before heading to Tucson from the east coast. Alvernon Donut Shop seemed to be one of the best shops in Tucson based on the reviews. The donuts are amazing, in taste and selection. They have a light flavorful taste to them and do not have the overly fried greasy taste to them. The service was wonderful, the woman who helped me was very nice and friendly. This is truly a one of a kind family run bakery. It’s definitely worth a stop if you haven’t been here before or passing through Tucson.

OMG, had a simple glazed donut, it was still warm!! Delicious! Very friendly little place.

Greatest small business donut shop in the world. Ken and his wife are awesome!

Friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic donuts!

Amazing donuts and wonderful friendly service! When you walk in theres an immediate wonderful energy and that radiates through the food for sure! I feel like I found my donut shop soul mate . I will never but donuts from anywhere else ever again

I like these donuts better than chain brand donuts. Their bear claws and cinnamon sugar donut holes are super good. The guy working there was super friendly and mentioned hed been working the for 15 years!!!

Excellent donuts and awesome fried chicken. We definitely be back for more.

Wow! These donuts are so much better than that other place. The price is right, too. Make it a point to stop by; you wont be sorry.

Their apple fritters and donut holes were great. Would recommend for a good quick donut.

As someone who travels year round for work, I can honestly say this is the absolute best donut shop Ive ever been to in my life. I cant wait to travel back to AZ so Im can enjoy it for breakfast every chance I get 😀

Best donuts Ever! Maple bacon rocks. All the lovely people that work there are customer oriented and love taking care of us. Thank you for great food and service you all!!!

Donut deny yourself a taste of these delectable pastries. Not only is there a great selection available but also they will gladly make a special order for you. You only need to ask nicely. If you like real donuts, (the kind that does not become rock hard as soon as they cool off) then Alvernon Donut Shop is a must visit.

I make a point to go to this place every time I’m in Tucson. The donuts aren’t just the best in town, they’re still #1 donut on my list. I’ve had Shipley’s in Texas with their great coffee, I’ve had Voodoo’s in Denver .. all those crazy donuts with all the cereal etc ... nothing compares to the simplicity of Alvernon. Amazing melt-in-your-hand donuts, quick and always friendly service ... I hear even their coffee is good. Check em out if you haven’t been. You won’t be disappointed.

Really great donuts with warm and friendly service. A special place with cozy booth tables, hot coffee and free WiFi☺️💝😍 anyone would not regret popping in. Very courteous family run and they even helped me manage my donut packages as I got into my vehicle. So satisfied with my visit, I highly recommend this yummy delights shop

Ive bought these donuts over a hundred times - not all for me! These guys make a great donut. The quality is consistent and theres a great variety to choose from. If you want to jump off the deep end and get your sugar high on, this is the food to do it with.

Was lucky to find this amazing little place on a weekend road trip. Family owned and incredibly good at thier jobs. We will be going here everytime we co.e to Tucson!

Im surprised I havent written a review for this place already. Absolutely best doughnuts in town. I really am disappointed when doughnuts are overwhelmed with sugar, here yes the doughnuts have sugar, but the breading is just GORGEOUS! My favourites are raspberry jam filled and chocolate covered custard filled!
