The Donut Box

Ive been here a couple times, first time i came and order in, second time i came in the morning and it was crazy busy. 1 register, 3 workers and 6 customers, most of them where just buying a single item so my larger order made people seem inpatient. They have a drive through but i guess the people buying small orders thought they were being smart to go inside. Their donuts are wonderful, service is pleasent, and clean facilities. I recommend this place to everyone. Just have patience if you need to wait 10 mins in the morning.

I saw this store on Unilocal and fell in love with the pictures. Upon entering the store I was greeted and felt comfortable. I ordered 6 donuts. I was flattered by all the choices I had. We got in the car and we had to just try 1. My daughter took her 1^st bite of vanilla covered sprinkle and she said, «Yum mom.» Then I ate my maple flavored donut. I looked at it and was amazed at how thick it was. I was happy cause that means I can enjoy the donut longer. LOL It was crispy, a little flaky, and a little greasy. It was so darn good. I loved all those combined in 1. I will go back as soon as I wake up early enough so I can give myself time to make it to work also. I ordered the oreo, vanilla sprinkle, maple, coconut, apple fritta, and caramel. Please go treat yourself.

They’re donuts are always fresh and unlike some donuts where the next day they’re gooey and sticky, these are still fresh and good! My family goes here all the time for Saturday morning donuts…

100% the best doughnuts in Memphis if not anywhere. The staff is very friendly, always smiles when you walk in the door. Hands down the BEST!

Heyyyyyyy. The Doughnut Box. Yeah, that place. I must say, I haven’t a bad thing to say about this hole-​in-​the-​wall full of yummy sweetness.
On my travels to work (when I have the time and money), I would stop by and engage in a friendly conversation with some of the workers, before purchasing my fresh, delicious, doughy breakfast.
They have a very nice, and wide selection of holy doughs, not to mention other tarty tarts like bear claws, cinnamon rolls, and, yes, doughnut holes.
All this talk about doughnuts is making my sweet-​tooth craving emerge from its slumber. Thank you, Doughnut Box.

I like this place as far as donuts go. I like that they have a few different donuts like the maple bacon and the caramel. Good service and selection usually but they do run out if you don’t get there early.

Yummy! We almost had one of everything and it was all delicious. Love the old fashioneds.

I have to say The Donut Box is by far the BEST donut shop in Memphis. These donuts are melt in your mouth delicious. My favorite is the strawberry donut and my daughter prefers the chocolate spiral. I am glad I don’t live close to The Donut Shop or else I would gain some serious weight. You can’t go wrong with anything you order here. I am sorry to say Gibson’s just got thrown off their pedestal.

Super sweet counter help and wonderful green tea donuts! Well, wonderful donuts in general! I love this neat little shop. It is the perfect compliment to the neighborhood and we are so fortunate to have The Donut Box near by. Simply yummy!

Sort of your basic donut shop, but that being said they are really quite good and pretty creative on there offerings. Defiantly worth a stop in or hit up the drive-​thru if your on the go. They are done of the tastiest dount in Bartlett and really fresh everything ice been. On top of the at the staff is really friendly and helpful.

Wow. Amazing donuts. Well priced. Night and day better than other donuts we have tried. Took the whole family this morning and we all loved it. Stretch your jaws first before you come because you have to open them wide to take a bite of these big fluffy donuts. SO GOOD.

Beautiful, tall, fresh donuts! They must change the oil frequently, no after taste. I chose a plain glazed (a sure telling of goodness) and a cream filled chocolate long john (they called it a Napoleon). The Mr. got a glazed and Maple, which is one of his favorites. He, too, thought the glazed was perfect and he says the shop is a 7 out of 5. Pretty great!

Love the donuts, best in town! I don’t normally get donuts often but since I found the Donut Box I seem to find my way there at least once a week.

The donuts here are like crack. Thankfully they’re not REAL crack (right?) because people like me would have a little problem when we have to provide our little sample for work (ahem).
Seriously, I’ve never had donuts as good as the donuts at the Donut Box. They are so good and my husband was detouring my kids there in the morning so often before school that I had to put a «once a week» rule on them.
(we only go on Friday now *wink*)
I wish I could tell you exactly what makes them so awesome. Take their plain old regular glazed donut, for example. There is nothing plain, old, or regular about it; it’s light, fluffy, usually still warm, perfectly glazed, melts in your mouth perfection.
If you’ve never tried a donut from the Donut Box, you really don’t know what you’re missing. This is one of those great local establishments that is just bursting at the seams to earn your business. If you like donuts, you will LOVE theirs.

One of my favorite doughnut restaurants! Very big variety of doughnuts. My favorite are the blueberry donuts

BEST. DONUTS.
I’ve tried all the big name donut shops in Memphis and a lot of the smaller ones too. The Donut Box is on a completely different orbit than anything else I’ve ever had. They have the best actual «donut,» in my opinion. Very unlike any of type of donut I’ve had. Huge, fluffy, fresh donuts that toe the line between too soft and too chewy. They’re my perfect donut.
Now let’s talk flavors. I have never seen so many awesome flavors! The cheesecake is to die for, and I thought they had the best bacon maple donut of any I’ve tried (I’ve had several different places’). Also, I loved the green tea donut. Very unusual, but if you like green tea flavored things I think you will love it too. Not to mention that their icing is always impeccable, never messy like so many places you go to.
I can’t recommend them enough. I can’t wait to go again!

I was surprised by how awesome this place truly was even with such a tiny variety. My fault, though. I came at 1:30 and this place Is so popular that all of the goodies are bound to be gone by then. Donuts as big as my head, fluffier than a cloud and lighter than air. Absolutely delish and my new go-​to donut shop.

The Donut Box has some of the best and biggest donuts I have ever tried! The friendly service and fair prices make it even better! I love the Donut Box! Eat local!

I am not a big doughnut fanatic, however the doughnut box has gotten me hooked. The doughnuts are so soft and melt in your mouth. They are huge so you also get a good value for your money. They have flavor varieties for everyone, Including a bacon maple doughnut! Be sure and try a bear claw while you are there. Try and arrive early because the selection is better plus they are warm.

The Donut Box– clearly a place to get donuts. However, be aware that if you are not there before 10 am on a Saturday, it’s slim pickins. The staff is young, but incredibly friendly and helpful, and the owner works elbow-​to-​elbow with them at the counter. The variety is incredible– Oreo donuts, cheesecake donuts, Green tea icing, maple icing with bacon bits to blend sweet and salty, sprinkles– and they even cater to the cake donut lovers by providing more than your average plain or frosted cake donut. Last, but not least, they also make those ever lovin’ donut holes, which always seem to fill the box, but never your belly while you gorge on them as you do the math («It takes 9 donut holes to go around a donut, so 30 donut holes is basically like having only 3 donuts, right?»). Fortunately, the donuts are larger than most bakeries and chains, so a dozen will do you.
As you peruse the racks of icing covered and crème-​filled rings, you can hear the «ding» of the drive-​thru window just behind the counter. The drive-​thru is especially convenient on those rainy mornings when you want to win the hearts of your pre-​coffee work colleagues with a box of sugar and dough. You have to navigate the parking lot to get to the drive-​thru window comfortably, but The Donut Box sits on the end of the strip, making it convenient to exit the lot once you’re through and on your way.
If you want to settle down, they also have tables and chairs if you’d like to sit and enjoy the scenery as you take in the soft, sweet smell of donuts being made. In addition to donuts, The Donut Box also serves coffees, juices, and kolaches. The price is quite reasonable with the box of a dozen costing $ 8-​ish. If you’re running late and they’re about to close, they will sell you what is left in the cabinet for a discounted price; otherwise, what is left at the end of the day goes in the trash, never to be smelled or tasted again.
