"Editor's Note: This location is closed, but Caroline's has opened on the Upper East Side at 1631 2nd Ave. In the battle for Bed-Stuy doughnut supremacy, Caroline’s scores an upset over Fan Fan like a bracket-busting win from a 15 seed during March Madness. The consistency of their dough is on the verge of being dense, but stops just short so you still get that desired squishiness. If you’ve only allotted yourself one treat, get the Orange Cream Cheese. You also can’t go wrong with the plain glazed if you want something simpler. This place is takeout-only, so grab your donuts and head to the tables and chairs at Brevoort Playground just two blocks away. photo credit: David A. Lee" - Kenny Yang

I think these may be the best fresh doughnuts I have had. They were rich and dense but still light. They weren't overly sweet and they were so good. I could easily eat them daily if I lived closer. We had the Raspberry donut and it was everything. The strawberry lemonade was fresh and tasted good as well. I'd love to go back.

I went to Caroline’s knowing about the great reviews and I am always looking to find great things to eat. I was greeted by a friendly employee and noticed very little selections were available because the shop just opened and was working on putting other flavors out so I was SO disappointed!... Anyway.. I really wanted to try the glaze and I came a long way for it to so asked how long will it be for the glazed and he said 10 minutes. In the meantime an obvious regular came in asking for her “usual” the glazed donut and was raving to the person on the phone that this was the best place for donuts… this made me even more excited!… Finally, the moment arrived, freshly made…the glazed donut. The space in Caroline’s is not a sit down and have your donut but you can stand by the window which is enough for two..three people tops. I chose to eat on the go and it was pure bliss!..Hell, I could have been mugged and asked, “Take everything but the donut”. It was delicious!…The reviews are dead on…this is by far the BEST donut I have had!. It was fresh, warm, soft and just melted in my mouth. I am watering at the mouth as relive the experience…..😋 I will return to try the creme brûlée, mango, doughcro and Boston’s creme!!!…Thank you Caroline’s….seriously!…

Very welcoming staff and owner. Delicious donuts! Generous size for the price. Texture is very soft/fluffy and donuts are full of flavor. Can’t wait to go back.

These donuts are perfection! Stopped by Caroline's Donuts after work with a coworker for the first time and let me just say these donuts taste as amazing as they look. I purchased 9 different donuts for family to try and we are all in love. Each flavor brought us to a different adventure, all amazing. Thierry was very welcoming and friendly, will definitely be back to try more!

Expect donuts with character and rich in flavors. The owner chooses carefully the ingredients and you can definitely feel it. Awesome job 🙌🏼

I agree with all the reviews. These are the best donuts we’ve had in NYC. I personally am not a donuts person but these are quite delicious. Pistachio bread is my first choice.

deadlifts then doughnuts—this is the way. not in Bed-Stuy often but that may change purely because of Caroline’s Donuts. the small corner doughnut shop serves up a variety from classics to flavored to filled ones. picked up three different donuts and it took a little self-restraint not to inhale all of that fried sugary dough up. highly recommend the 1) sugar covered; 2) a blueberry cream cheese, and 3) a Boston cream. each doughnut had the right amount of sweetness without being cloying as each one was light and fluffy with a little bit of rich denseness in each bite. the shop is essentially a counter with doughnuts on display—the rest of the interior is for the shop to make them. the staff is friendly and upbeat. time to eat the doughnuts!

This place was amazing in the heart of Bedstuy! The owners were friendly and welcoming, they even gave my pup a treat! I am very particular about my donuts, and this place did not disappoint. I had the lemon donut, not too sweet but just right. I also had the chocolate mousse, which made me feel like I was in a different country! Definitely a must try!!
