I love donuts and love to try local donut shops. This is by far the best donut I have ever had. They have been in business since 1939. They have an article on the wall and I also found it on line, they were voted the second best independent small town doughnut shop in the nation. They only serve glazed... more

These doughnuts absolutely melt in your mouth. I was introduced to them by a waitress in Bowman's restaurant and I must say my family thought they were the best ever. My husband and I even walked up the beach one morning and arrived right when they opened up and brought doughnuts back to the teens for breakfast. A must if... more

Great doughnuts to enjoy during a walk on the beach. Don't buy extra to save for later because they're not as good when they're cold. more

This long running donut shop had donuts that you do not want to miss. I think the other reviews speak for that. The only hitch is that they are only open three days a week, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This place is nestled in the middle of the old Carolina Beach arcade. You have to do a little hunting if... more

Must go!!!

Excellent! Every time I've gone to Carolina Beach, I always, always have to stop by and get some doughnuts. I actually believe they are ten times better than Krispy Kreme doughnuts. Especially the glaze, which happen to be my favorite. So if you ever get the chance go try their doughnuts. You won't be disappointed, I haven't been. Though to... more

Awesome!
