Delicious donuts, fresh every day, offered at a great price by wonderful people!! Not much more you can ask for. I bring clients these donuts and they are always a huge hit!

Expensive, soggy, and super greasy, likely fried at too low of a temperature. No buttermilk bars - they say old fashion is their buttermilk?! They have a pretty display, but some of the worst donuts I’ve had.

Clean, courteous and welcoming staff patiently help you navigate the array of delicious, creative and multiple donuts. Fresh, sweet, light full donuts await you! Don’t let the “dot” in the name fool you - they are huge!

There are not enough good things I can say about this place! They have the best donuts around! I get a mixed dozen every time for my family to eat all weekend. So many different and fun flavors and too pretty not to share on Instagram. The place is clean, everyone keeps their distance, masks are mandatory. I got up earlier than usual to make sure I got a good spot in line. The wait was short and the service was fast! I will be back often. My kids love the colorful yummy options. Plenty of parking too.

Review №19

Great service, good donuts. Took advantage of their flash sale on a dozen. All in all we enjoyed them, although the salted caramel was pretty disappointing. A little TOO salty, overwhelmed the rest of the flavors. I forced myself to finish it because wasting a donut seems like a crime. Thats the only reason I didnt give 5 stars.

Great donuts, their eruption donuts are fantastic as are the jelly filled and old fashions, fritters are great too. Show up early to make sure you get your pick.

Review №21

Hands down the best donuts in town. Ive tried Krispy Kreme, Angels Donuts, Mr. Maple Donuts and none of them even come close.They sell out quickly though, so getting there EARLY is required. But, with donuts this good, no wonder they sell out every day.

Beautiful and clean store. Donuts taste as good as they look and they look amazing! Great variety and some extras you dont see other places, such as a Texas extra large donut and seasonal fun like candy cane frosting. Only thing to consider is they dont have seating inside, only stand up counters. But there isnt space for seating as they use the space to showcase the donuts. They offer bakers dozens, which a lot of shops dont anymore and they clearly support the local community.

Friendly staff, clean facility, great selection of great tasting fresh donuts. Holiday ones are always fun! This is our go-to donut shop for birthdays and weekends. We order a few days ahead for quick pick up. Orders have always been accurate and on time! Love that theyre local.

Review №34

The donuts are really good but they dont explain pricing to you or nothing I couldnt see any signs hanging up that explained the prices so eight donuts cost me $16. And the staff arent very friendly there either so Im pretty sure I wont be going back

Review №35

Delicious donuts, and excellent customer service. I appreciated the genuine service and thoughtful conversation. It wasn’t until I was walking out that I realized it was their closing time. I didn’t get that “get out so we can close” vibe that often happens in food and beverage establishments!

This a great place! They stay busy, but get customers in and out very quickly and I have never felt rushed. The donuts are incredibly good! Over sized and an extremely large variety, and they have Texas sized that is as large as a dinner plate. They serve coffee and tea as well, but I have never gotten those. I recommend this place to anyone looking to get a donut fix!

Review №46

We went to Dot on a Saturday and arrived at 10:51am to exactly 8 donuts left- 2 Rice Krispies (vanilla frosting with cereal on top) and 6 cinnamon Persian (orange frosting with sprinkles). So I guess we get two choices? I was not impressed.And four other parties came in also looking for a donut when I noticed that some people were picking up orders from the back. The person was apologetic and gave me a magnet with their number to call ahead the night before for a pickup. So that was nice. But that’s not how I want donuts, having to order a day ahead or get up at 5:30am.The cinnamon Persian was ok - cinnamon roll with frosting on top, but the Rice Krispies on the cereal donut were stale, sticky and hard. I had to pick them off just to eat it. The donuts are not bad themselves but a little too dense for me.They don’t serve espresso or lattes, paid $2.60 each for two 16oz drip coffees. We’ll probably give them one more try earlier in the morning but we love Angel’s donuts on 1st St and they’ve figured out how to have 20 flavors of fresh donuts available all day until midnight.It seems like this place is run on a shoestring and for the goal of running down to zero stock by noon rather than to serve customers. It’s a bummer.What’s the loss in tossing 15 donuts if no one comes? You plan based on daily demand and keep 20 plain or glazed on hand that you can top with sprinkles or chocolate glaze in a second or give away at the end of the morning. Winchell’s figured this out years ago- I don’t get it.

The donuts are good. The service is lacking. I rode my bike with my two kids. I ordered two donuts. When I got home, there was only one donut in the bag. Quite frustrating. I will now go elsewhere.

Usually a whole box gone instantly but this donuts taste different. It’s been a while and visited buying a dozen glazed today. Looks bigger. But taste a little salty and less creamy. Maybe receipt changed. Miss the old taste

Super delicious donuts. You have to get here early, because the best ones sell out quick! If you have a donut craving this is a great spot to come in the morning.

I love Dot donuts. I used to get them once a week for office meetings then I moved to the other side of the planet. Fortunately, family was kind enough to have a box of them ready when I came home for visits. Best donuts in town. Miles better than the unreasonably well known place that starts with a V. Yes, you need to get there early for the best variety of choice. Its a donut shop. Thats how they roll.

Donuts are fresh and good. They run out quickly though and close too early. Coconut filled are delicious and our grandson loves the bubblegum. I gave 5 stars for the actual quality of the donuts.

Review №57

The best donuts in the state! And thats not an overstatement. If you are trying to impress at work this is the way to go. They are fluffy, really amazing looking, and have quality taste that every one will love. I come here all the time for a good tasting donut

I stopped by on a Friday morning without realizing it was National Donut Day. This place was SUPER busy and running low(ish) on selection around 9am, but their staff was smiling, kind, and bringing out warm trays of fresh donuts the whole time I was waiting in line. Any place with employees that stay that friendly and keep things running that smoothly when theyre so busy deserves a great review. I had an excellent first experience and cant wait to come back on a regular day!

By far the best donuts in the Portland / Vancouver area! We drive all the way up to Vancouver to get them and ask friends to bring them down. Better than Blue Star and other high end foodie places. Creative flavors, beautiful presentation and excellent texture. Our favorites for sure!

Ive gone here for years and every time the donuts are delicious and a hit wherever I take them. If you want donuts, show up early. Every good place that sells fresh closes when theyre out of stock. And Dots is one of the best and freshest.

Review №66

Donuts are decent. What makes this is place great is the that almost every week they have new donuts and creations they are trying out. The flavors are not always typical donut flare which make it fun. I love the lemonade, cinnamon sugar, oreo and of course seasonal ones like Pumpkin spice!

Way too sugary for my taste. Probably a little too expensive for a doughnut as well.

Paul is a real artist when it comes to making donuts. The display is beautiful. There is a wide selection and donuts are large and the dough is just right. I select the donuts that dont have a lot of icing. I like them better than Voodoo Donuts in Portland... and you can get a 10% senior discount. Service has always been perfect. They have a growing clientele of regulars. Many times they sell out and close early.

Drove 40 mins (one way) to Dots Donuts 🍩 arriving before 11 am to take my granddaughter on a special outing. The website said open until 2. When we arrived the neon open sign was on but there was a sign on the door saying sold out closed early. Wish they would have posted something on their website! (Incredible donuts though - that’s why we were making the drive)

While tourists go to Voodoo, locals I know go to Dots. I love that they have such vibrant flavors and colors. A dozen from here definitely is a good way to suck up to your coworkers on a Monday morning.

I have to say, best Donut Shop in town. It is a bit spendy but you just wont find a better place to spoil your customers. Nice home town feel and dont dilly dally in the morning.... or they will sell out and the door will be locked.

Amazing donuts, baked fresh and delicious. Only complaint is that from what Ive seen there isnt a tremendous variety, I think I saw 6 or so options plus the sprinkles version of each. Also the prices werent expensive at all compared to what youre getting.

Very yummy donuts (yeast base). Staff however was not friendly and hurried us along and so we felt uncomfortable and had to choose quickly. Not nice!! 4 star is for the donuts, but not the service.

The eruption donuts sold on Friday and Saturday are amazing. Honestly, this place has more delicious donuts than Voodoo, and no lines! There are always a few interesting options, and good seasonal flavors. My favorite donut place in town. A bit spendy, but worth it.

Our favorite donut shop! Warm and friendly, definately different that the big chain stores. Variety of original flavors, my favorite is the apple fritter and pumpkin spice old fashioned. If you have a nut allergy in you family, the donuts are peanut/tree nut free.

Good donut shop and nice donut they have good flavors. But is it better than Nola or Blue star, Not at all i feel like Nola and Blue star donuts both are much more “high quality and gourmet”. But the pricing here at dots are much more cheaper

Review №96

You guys totally sucked. I came in around 12pm hoping that I’d get a couple of donuts for my late morning breakfast but they’re all sold out and they aren’t even making any more donuts TWO HOURS before closing! NO EXCUSE! I was told that this place has best donuts and I was hoping to get some good experience but I didn’t. I had to drive all around the town off 4th plain and mill plain streets to see if I can find any other donut place that is close to where I live but there are none! You guys are pretty mug only donut shop that is actually very close to where I live! I just won’t drive another side of town to get Krispy Kreme because it’s too far from where I live!I would not recommend this place to anyone if they’re looking for a late morning breakfast! I would give it a NEGATIVE 5 stars!

Dot Donuts is GREAT. Theyve been my brother and my favorite donut joint since my mother discovered them and instroced us to them. Their donuts are set apart by their heavier bready feel. A great choice for any donut connoisseur looking to broaden their palate. (The cookies and cream is my fav).

The donuts are great....when they have them. I have been here many times with my kids when they are sold out by 10:30 or 11am. Its always a bummer. Not sure why they dont just make more.
