[JJBlue06]

Speaking in terms of North Lime Donuts

1.) black raspberry chocolate chip
2.) cookies and cream
3.) funfetti
4.) cookie dough

Hot/Warm Glazed Donuts or Holes from Dixie Creme in Bowling Green in 70’s and 80’s. Never found a better donut since.

North Lime used to be my go to for local donuts but Spalding's and Frank's are better in my opinion. I wouldn't say no to just about any donuts but also, not my first choice. Their cinnamon sugar and chocolate stout are great though.

My Granny's donuts..... long johns were the best. She worked in a little bitty shop down the main street of Mt. Washington, KY. Im talking little, Like 800 sq. ft. Right across the street from a place called "Crazy Reds". Its been gone for years but I havent had better donuts since I was a kid.

 

[BBN Catz 89]

Anything from Magee’s.

 

[Aw34uk1]

Umm y’all need to go to Franks Donuts. It’s FIRE!!!!! And not rich like Krispy Kreme. The place in Versailles is too sweet for me

I live close to Bill’s Dounts in Centerville, Oh.

Consistently ranked in the top ten in the country and they back it up.

Butter twist
Sour cream
Persian
Red velvet
Chocolate covered Bavarian

Donut Hole in Destin/Santa Rosa Beach are righteous, too.

Chocolate cake locally. Red’s Donuts in Paducah are still fried to make sure your grease level rises! Having said that, Portland, OR, has a couple of shops with long lines on the sidewalk outside, well worth the wait.

 

[Mashburned]

All of em.

 

[Backer cutter]

Raspberry filled for me.

 

[UKphotoman]

The creamhorns at Dave’s bakery in flatwoods is a little bit of heaven.

 

[J_Dee]

I can't decide on four. Any good chocolate-covered glazed donut is my favorite.


Amon's Sugar Shack in Somerset is pretty good.

 

[Kaizer Sosay]

I hereby give this thread 2 “likes” for not being in “Funkycat Corrupt Poll” format.

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan]

I agree on Amon's. Man get those glazed ones fresh made and they are dynamite.

 

[UK_Dallas]

You are going to call me crazy but........Thorton's has a maple iced that I would put up against any.

 

[BravesRule]

As somewhat of a donut connoisseur, I feel compelled to release the definitive Lexington-area rankings.

1. Spaldings
2. Magee’s
3. Doughdaddy’s
4. Frank’s
5. Krispy Kreme
6. North Lime
7. Dunkin’
8. Donut Days

Not many real independent bakeries around like when I was growing up. There was one called Bruggensmith's in Louisville not far from where we lived. They had the best donuts and breakfast pastries. One thing in particular they had was called Chocolate Alligator. It was a pastry with chocolate chips and chocolate drizzled across the top. It was absolutely OUTSTANDING. There's a place or two here in town that tried to replicate it, but they can't touch the original.

 

[Rebelfreedomeagle]

IMO, Louisville's best. Just get some of everything.

Y’ALL AIN’T GOT NO LOVE FOR CHURROS?

Old fashioned from Dunkin/Horton’s is all I’ll eat anymore. #Sophisticated

I know I'm supposed to say Red's being from Paducah but I just can't. Way too greasy. They'll do in a pinch but I'm only going over there for Taco John's or Just Hamburgers.
