The best donuts I've had!
Review #19422Review by: Anonymous Breakfast Lover on 2/9/2010
Omelet and toast were great. Eggs benedict were also good. Had side order of sausage patties, they were over cooked and had to be cut with a knife, I left a whole patty and part of the other. Told waiter and he didn't seem to care even said he didn't know why, "they were cooked to order." This could not possibly have been true. Cashier also seemed to not be particularly interested in the complaint.

We try to eat breakfast at the Donut Hole when we are in the Destin area. We always have a great meal. Though we are full by the time we finish our breakfasts, we always get a dozen donuts to go. How can you pass them up? The Key Lime donuts are fabulous! Of course if you don't want to wait in line, get up early:-)

One of our favorite Destin attractions. The trip's not complete without a stop here! Yep, if you're on vacation you've got to sacrifice a morning in to get the donuts of your choice but there's none better! Great service and wonderful food!

donuts are good if you can ever get there early enough to get the ones you like. if they keep selling out of the most popular kinds, you think they would make alot more of them, but no, they just run out. you can go in there at 10:00am and they are out of nearly every kind of donut. we are on vacation. we do not get up at the crack of dawn!

I absolutely love Destin and I adore the Donut Hole's key lime pie!!!! It is so light, but decadent all at the same time. The staff is friendly and service was efficient. We will be back every summer!!!!

Review #17144Review by: Anonymous Breakfast Lover on 6/4/2009
We thought the soft white sand was the highlight of Destin Fl. until we ate at the Donut Hole! I am a coffee brat and their coffee was great! The big attraction was the Bavarian filled Donut! Oh my!!! So light and creamy not heavy or greasy nor real sugary. We had a large group and everyone had a great meal. The biscuits were like homemade and we tried the tomato gravy and biscuits for something real different and really liked that too. The key lime pie was the best and so what can I say except I can't wait to go back. I had the lobster omelet, how can you go wrong with that! The service was great. The portions were plenty even for our college age boys. I have to say that the apple cinnamon walnut bread takes things to a whole new level!!! We bought a loaf for toast which was divine, but you can order french toast made from this bread at the restaurant WOW! We are going to have to see if they will ship the bread and donuts!

Every time we vacation in Destin, a stop at the Donut Hole is a mandatory and tasty part of the trip. Their Key Lime Pie is, for me, the standard by which all others are measured (and all others fall short!)

Review #16791Review by: Anonymous Breakfast Lover on 4/10/2009
This place is a must stop anytime we go thru Destin. Donuts are out of this world as is the food.
Corned beef hash made with real corned beef and new potatoes, smack yo mama good.
The Key Lime pies are the bomb as well.
Never had a bad meal there. All delicious.

Having recently moved here from up north, now calling Destin our home, I'm glad to have found a quaint, comfortable friendly place to eat!
We're there every Thursday, pm, and I always have "The Everything". It is one of the best breakfast plates one could ask for! KUDOS!!

My family and I recently ate at the Doughnut Hole on our family vacation. It was the last morning we were there but I had wished we had tried it a week ealier and we would have eaten there everyday. The breakfast was awsome!! The French toast special was like taking a bite of Heaven.... but seriously, it was great. The portions are HUGENORMAS!!! I wish we would have gotten to try all of the baked goods, lunch and dinner! Two thumbs UP!

Review #13875Review by: totalcap on 3/23/2008
While vacationing, we stopped by the Donut Hole one evening to find -gasp- NO DONUTS. Granted, it was around 9pm, but come on, the place is called THE DONUT HOLE! We walked in and saw the racks were empty all except a couple dozen sour cream donuts of questionable freshness. Basically walked in, walked out.
Fast forward to two days later. We decide to give it another try for breakfast, during actual breakfast time. The line was out the door; luckily the weather was beautiful. Everyone in our group was extremely happy with their food. I had the huevos con chorizo breakfast, which was on special. They didn't have avocodos, so the lovely waitress with the British accent offered me a choice of sides, and I chose the cheese grits, which were very yummy. The coffee was terrific and very fresh. We saw them grinding it fresh in front of us.
Our waitress was less than perky, and overhearing her discussion about having worked the night before, and planning on working that same evening, I understood why. She did crack a joke once, so I'll let it slide. There was one waitress who really showed the stress of a busy breakfast hour on her face and in her actions. Choose a new profession, perhaps? The British gal more than made up for the grouches, and the cashier was very sweet and helpful.
I enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. We grabbed a sour cream donut and a loaf of cinnamon rasin bread to go. The donut was wonderful, but the bread has yet to be sliced.
All in all, a good experience.

My family and I went to The Donut Hole while on vacation this week during Spring Break 2008. After reading the reviews on this site, I was pretty excited about going. There was a line and the wait was not bad, but the service was horrible. The waitress was in such a rush that she didn't get everyone's drink order. We constantly had to call for her to get coffee and drink refills. I and 3 others in my family ordered the french toast and it wasn't any better than the french toast from IHOP. My 6 year old ordered a donut and it was dry and crumbly. As I was sitting there, I could not believe that this place had actually gotten rave reviews. When we left, we went 1 mile down the road and ordered a dozen of HOT KRISPY KREMES! We should have gone there first.

Review #13094Review by: krickelm on 10/8/2007
We live in southern Indiana and vacation in Destin almost yearly. I kid you not, when planning where to visit each year the Doughnut Hole becomes a huge factor. We will always end up deciding on Destin. When we do come for our yearly visit we make sure to frequent the Donut Hole at least 3 times during the week for breakfast. The atmosphere is fun, sometimes loud, but not excessively. The short wait is worth, the best french toast, made from home baked breads...not to mention the oatmeal. I'm not sure how they make plain old oatmeal taste so wonderful, but they do. The doughnuts are amazing of course. The staff is friendly and they will begin to reconize you if you become a frequent. I could not be anymore happy with the Donut Hole, well maybe if it were free!!! Five Stars!

My husband and I stopped by to get donuts on the way home at the Sandestin location and we ordered 4 original glazed donuts. The cashier told us if we order 6 the 6th donut would be free. So we order 4 original glazed and 1 chocolate glazed and 1 cinnamon donut. We had to each eat one on our way home and they are the best donuts I have ever tasted. I know now when we go back to Destin this will be a stop I have to take. They were also reasonably priced too.

I have been coming to the Donut Hole for years when we visit. It's been closed the past 2 times when we vacationed and I was SO upset! This time however it was up and running!!! We visited mid day and the place was empty - quite the surprise from the usually long wait. The Reuben was WONDERFUL - but the food usually is fabulous!!!

Not busy went in today (12/2006) and we ordered french toast and bisquits with tomato gravy. bisquits/gravy good. Service almost non existent. No refill on coffee, no one asked how my meal was. We live in Destin and we won't go back.
Review #9245Review by: Anonymous Breakfast Lover on 3/26/2006
Tuesday, March 21, my two granddaughters, my daughter in law and I had breakfast at the Highway 98 location. Every year our family visits Destin at least two times. We always have visited this location two or three times a week.NOT AGAIN
The service was horrible; the order was not "turned in". When the waitress realized she had not completed the order, she "THREW" a plate of holes on our table and said something to the effect," here these should hold you for now".
When the eggs finally arrived, they were too cold to eat and "rubbery".By this time all we wanted to do was leave.
Now the worst! We were presented a bill for ninty plus dollars for four horrible breakfasts and two T-shirts.The bill was adjusted down to seventy plus dollars without any explanation.
I asked to see the manager and was told I could not.
I paid the bill just so I could leave and share this very bad experience with anyone that will listen in Nashville (and Birmingham.)

Fast friendly service. Delicious, freshly prepared breakfast and delectable BIG pastries. The chocolate angels are the best and their key lime pies fly out the door. Can't wait to visit again.

Breakfast is everybody's favorite meal at the Donut Hole. It's offered all day. The fresh baked goods are on display at the entrance to the restaurant making breakfast-to-go an easy option if you're on the way to the beach.
But sit down at the counter or in a booth if you like you like those frequent coffee refills. Waitstaff will call you "honey". Fabulous omelets, including a local favorite: crabmeat. Best restaurant in Destin.
