Mrs. Yoder’s Kitchen

My favorite donut in Richmond VA, the only downside is they do not have a store set location where you can go anytime and pick up a donut. They drive to specific locations in the are on specific days and serve their delicious, hot and fluffy donuts to ya. I was quite fortunate that they stop by a place really close to my house on Mondays.
Their location schedule is as followed:
Thursday, June 23 the Great Big Greenhouse 9am-1:30pm
Saturday, June 25 Forest hill park 8am-​12noon
Saturday, June 25 the Market at Magnolia Green 8am-​12noon
Monday, June 27 Westbury pharmacy 8am-​4pm

Absolutely amazing tasting donuts. Hot, fresh, delectable. I can’t wait to visit again in a few weeks.

Oh my goodness. If heaven had a taste, this would be it. On Monday’s Mrs. Yoder’s family makes these donuts hot and fresh in the parking lot of Westbury Pharmacy in the West End of Richmond. Only one flavor — sourdough — but one donut makes a meal. Be good to yourself and have one.

Love these donuts; always hot and fresh, they melt in your mouth! You can find them for 50 cents cheaper at the Huguenot-​Robious Farmer’s Market on Thursdays than you can at SOTJ on Saturdays. No lines there either:) They always let our 4-​year-​old peak in the back and watch them making the donuts at SOTJ and the line does move quickly, though it can be very, very long. We like to get our donuts half-​glazed; just as tasty but not as sweet. These donuts are good for a day or two after purchase, if they last that long:)

Definitely one of the best donuts I’ve ever had. They’re all made by hand in the truck, and come out hot and melty.
I just wish they had a store so I could go grab one every weekend!

waiting in a line that’s 30 people deep is STILL TOTALLY WORTH IT. My favorite donuts in RVA

This is probably going to be one of my shortest reviews ever, and I just have to say, Mrs. Yoder’s Kitchen is absolutely deserving of every 5* rating it receives.
Their truck stopped by the Richmond Grand Illumination at the James Center, and I got to try one while it was hot and fresh. It was one of the fluffiest and most delicious donuts I’ve ever been graced with, and was absolutely fantastic. The glaze is excellent and not overly sweet and the donut itself has a delicious base taste. It was almost as if I was eating a funnel cake, that kind of stretchy fluffiness, and was super satisfying.
Donuts were running at a price of $ 2.50 each so my first stop I just got one, but realized shortly after the error of my ways and picked up a couple more. They’re well worth the price, despite that sounding a little pricey. The donut is huge and satisfying.
I also can’t say enough about the staff. The woman running it, which I’m pretty sure was the owner of the company (from the looks of their Facebook page) was incredibly polite and cheerful.
I have nothing bad to say about my experience here, and quite honestly it was one of the best donuts I’ve ever had. If you’re at an event that has them and want a donut, do yourself a favor and try them out.

My husband and I are complete addicts for these heavenly sourdough donuts. And what do donut addicts do? Why, they have the Mrs. Yoder’s Kitchen donut truck roll up at their wedding reception! So yup, no joke, MYK was the 2^nd vendor we booked for our wedding (after we secured our wedding venue!). We first learned that they provided wedding bookings after seeing them in a local wedding magazine and did a happy dance when we learned they were available on our date!
Since most of our guests were out-​of-​towners, we really wanted to give them a taste of local flavor (literally) and the donuts were a grand slam! I mean c’mon, after a night of eating, drinking, and being merry, who is gonna refuse a donut that’s piping hot, fresh-​out-​of-​the-​fryer, and dripping in glaze?!? Answer: NO. ONE.
Mr. Jay Yoder was an absolute delight and breeze to work with and incredibly responsive to all our emails throughout wedding planning. A huge thank you to the Yoder family for being forever a part of the best night of our lives — we love you and your donuts!!!

A-​mazing. Went to the farmers market and visited the food truck. Got a hot box of doughnuts.
They sell fresh eggs and piping hot fresh sourdough doughnuts.
We drove an hour to visit this place. Glad I was able to try their product. It was amazing

Move over Sugar Shack, Duck Donuts and Krispy Kreme. You have nothing over a Mrs. Yoder’s donut. Exquisite taste and texture. Best eaten warm but easily rewarmed later in the toaster oven.
We skip the long lines at the South of the James Market and get them fresh on Mondays at Westbury Pharmacy.
And everyone at Mrs. Yoder’s is so friendly and polite. Love the people and love the donuts!

We got these donuts at Westbury Pharmacy on a Monday morning, because we had tried to buy them at the South of the James farmers market and they had run out. So, when we learned that they were at Westbury every Monday morning, we were super excited to try them out!
The line at Westbury was nothing like the line at the farmers market. We walked right up the the truck, ordered our donuts, paid, and went on our way. We bought a half a dozen for our family of four, not knowing how big they would be (they’re huge!!!). They are so so so so good. Honestly, they were amazing. I would definitely go back and get them again!!!
They were yeast donuts, not the cake kind. They were very sweet and very doughy, so if you prefer cake donuts then these are not for you. I, personally, dislike the cake kind so this was just heaven in my mouth!!!
Side note, there’s no seating anywhere around the truck at Westbury like there is at the farmers market. At the farmers market, there are picnic tables and benches where you can eat. We had to eat these in the car, which didn’t really bother me. Fair warning!

Oh Sweet Lord
A religious experience, if you like a good doughtnut, or a good sweet at all. Despite the stiff competition, this soft, succulent ring of yeast dough, fried to perfection and then covered in glaze to be served, still dripping, to the ridiculous [but fast moving!] line of customers. Somehow, the fact that there is literally only one product option [though I think they might sell eggs?] for once does not distress me. I only need one thing. And I need it lots.
And then I found out they also serve them covered in fresh chopped strawberries with whipped cream, and I about died.
The young persons who work the truck [I believe they are some form of Amish, but I am not positive and have not asked, since that takes time and there are Lines] are unfailingly polite and incredibly adept and we love them.

To date the VERY BEST donut I have tasted anywhere, and I have tried fried dough in Canada, both coasts of the US and across Europe. This is IT!!!
At the Forrest Hill Farmers Market they serve these donuts warm, and freshly glazed. As you stand and wait you watch them make dozens of donuts in front of your eyes, and they rest them on racks as the sticky glaze drips down and makes stalagmites of sugary goodness below. Who said you need a TV to watch food porn!!!
You can tell they are not healthy because when you bite into this sour dough based donut it simply melts away and disintegrates. It is soft, warm, sweet, sticky and the best part fatty. I dream about these donuts. You don’t need multiple crazy flavors (although that can be fun in it’s own right), you just need to make one donut perfectly… they’ve done this!!!
If it is Friday evening and you are reading this, I’ve just made plans for you tomorrow morning. Get to the Forrest Hill farmers market and wrap your tastebuds around perfection.

While visiting South of the James Market, my Richmond bestie highly recommended Mrs. Yoder’s donuts. Luckily, there wasn’t a long line in front of the food truck, so we quickly placed our order. One for $ 2.50 wasn’t bad. We were salivating as we saw the donuts dipped in glaze and then hung on a rack. We each ate one fresh, warm, sourdough glazed donut. Each bite was exquisite. It was THE BEST donut ever! I can’t wait to come back and order two next time!

May I have your attention please?

Will the real BEST DONUT please stand up?
Nuff said

Wow! These are awesome. I booked this food truck for a company event and they easily served up over 700 donuts over the course of a several hours. Although the line grew to 40 strong a time or two, the quick and efficient service made the line move fast (a few minutes to get to the window). These donuts are big, heavy and delicious. Handmade right in front of you, given to you warm.
Jay and Judy run a quality business with a smile. Their friendly service and great product will have me coming back for more.

Have had their donuts at the Forest Hill Saturday farmer’s market twice now. Let’s just say these suckers are worth every. last. calorie.

Five stars are not enough for this delicious donut. I was at an outdoor wedding that had the truck parked at the reception, this truck had the longest line. Everywhere I went someone was talking about these donuts, so I was eager to try them and they did not disapoint. It took them a long time to get them made at first but once they did, the line was constant and they were melt in your mouth good. Fresh from the grease hot and finger licking good. Literally!
I asked the ladies in the truck about the donuts and was pleased to find Mrs. Yoder herself as working the truck, very nice and friendly ladies with an awesome flair for making donuts!
Now that Im in the know, I will be sure to buy one from the truck when I see them.

Dear. Lord.
I cannot even tell you how incredible these donuts are. They are absolutely terrible once they aren’t warm, which is perfect because they generally don’t last that long anyway!
Mrs. Yoder’s does one thing: Cranks out massive amounts of sourdough glazed donuts the size of your head. They are delicious, melt in your mouth, gluttonous, devilish rings of heaven and worth the inevitable wait.
You cannot get another donut like this anywhere. At least nowhere that I have been.

Omg. So delicious. Seriously must try if you’re in the area. I love to support local businesses when possible. I believe it’s a dozen for $ 15 or $ 18. But make sure you share! It’s so moist. The size is a bit bigger than a cd. Worth every calorie you’re eating
