Daily Dozen

A must try for down and dirty, yummy mini donuts! This was my third time here over the years. The cinnamon and powdered sugar are the best. Don’t worry about the maple ones. The service was friendly and quick! They know what they are doing. The market was loud and busy (which was fine), but the line took a long while and their stand was not clean…maybe it’s they ARE so busy and crowded, which is okay.

I'm sorry I don't get it. These were not worth the price tag. Dudes working here looked like they were over it and it was barely a bit after noon. The maple bacon and sprinkles were way too sweet and weren't warm. The only warm ones were the plain and cinnamon/sugar. I also ordered a cappuccino (omg no!!) No! We purchased the dozen mixed and tried one of each. I threw away that cappuccino (shaking head). I get it tourist-y spot but it's a no for me.

I mean...does it get any better than fresh donuts, really?? There was a short line. It went quickly. Cashier was super friendly. My biggest obstacle was figuring out what to get, so I went simple and got a half dozen plain. Divine.

This donut spot is a must-visit! The donuts are made fresh to order—warm, fluffy, and absolutely delicious. There’s usually a line, but it moves quickly, and the staff is super friendly. Perfect treat to enjoy while exploring the market.

These mini donuts are crazy delicious. The cinnamon ones were my favorite.

Came here last month, the first shop/stand I came across at the market. Quite busy as the rest of the Pike Place Market, but the line moved fast so it wasn't an issue. Asked for an assorted ½ dozen and they all tasted fresh, not stale, sweet but not overpowering. The guy at the stand was really friendly and did his theatrics as part of the show, and even gave us three extra (free!) mini donuts after telling him that we had seen him in a video of one of my favorite creators like two weeks before my trip. Would come again for sure.

I had some difficulty finding the place, but once I did I felt kind of dumb because it's right inside the Pike's Market entrance (turn left at the first fish stand). Glad I finally found it, because the donuts are fantastic! They are really small, so I'd definitely recommend getting a dozen and a half or two dozen if it's for several people. We got an assortment of their flavors, including cinnamon sugar, chocolate sprinkle, maple, etc. I think the basic cinnamon sugar one was my favorite, but all were delicious. Highly recommend!

Cinnamon donuts were soft and nice especially when you get a fresh batch which is served hot .. ! Others flavors were ok too..! Hazelnut Latte was nice as well..!

Daily Dozen Doughnuts has AMAZING doughnuts. They're soft, fresh, and packed with flavor. They have a few flavors to choose from but you can't really go wrong with any of them. My favorite was the maple and cinnamon doughnuts with some coffee. They're perfectly bite sized and pack tons of flavor. There was a bit of a line but the wait wasn't too bad and it was entertaining to watch the hustle of pike place while waiting. Overall the worth was worth it and would go back again

This was a nice surprise, watching the donuts being cooked was a cute surprise. So we waited in line, once we got to the register we got handed hot right out of the frier. They were good, not much flavor except for the toppings they put on. Just a nice soft donut. When we left the line had doubled, I guess this is a tourist attraction I didn't know about. I got lucky on my timing.

Daily Dozen Doughnut is a small donut stand in Seattle's Pike Place Market that serves some of the freshest, most delicious, mini donuts anywhere in the US. This stand has been here for years and is a must visit anytime you go to the market. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - The atmosphere of Daily Dozen Doughnut includes the entire Pike Place Market in Seattle (full of people, tourists, and adventurers). It's situated in the Economy Building, just down the hall from where they throw the fish. There's always a line, but it moves pretty fast. 1 Star. Service - The staff is great. It was a two man crew on my visit, one person manning the orders and the other making the doughnuts fresh. There were about 5 people in line, but I only waited 5 minutes. 1 Star. Food - Daily Dozen Doughnut are known for their fresh mini-donuts (or doughnuts), which you can watch being made right in front of you. Enjoy a variety of flavors including plain, cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, chocolate frosted with sprinkles, maple, and maple bacon. My favorites are the cinnamon sugar and plain donuts. Be sure you eat your doughnuts immediately. It's best to bite into them when warm. They almost melt in your mouth. The mini size makes them oh so easy to gobble up. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. I've eaten the donuts here on every visit to Seattle - usually multiple visits. Not only is it a historic place to visit, it's also pretty darn tasty. See you next time I'm in Seattle. 1 Star.

I saw this place on Pike Place best food top 10, it did not disappoint. There was a line but it went by pretty quick. I ordered the assorted dozen which I chose plain, powdered, and cinnamon. Totaling around $11.00 with a caramel chocolate latte. Good and fresh. Staff was friendly and they are one of the places that accepts cash in the market. Located in a pretty busy spot of the Market , it's plenty going on around to see. You will definitely be entertained .

Absolutely a must to get these doughnuts when I'm in Seattle! They're the best when they're fresh, yummy & soft. I got the assorted half dozen and it was a perfect little taste of everything. Quick and friendly service. Located inside pike place market, small stand popping out doughnuts constantly. Definitely have to give it a try if you haven't! Can't wait to go back.

Came and got a few doughnuts at breakfast. Daily Dozen is one of the many places for baked goods in Pike Place Market. It has a pretty limited selection. Just a stall with a counter. They make these fresh so it takes a bit longer. After going through the market in the morning, we got a few of these for friends. It would have been better if I could have had some. They seem to not have any vegan flavors even though the internet says they have these. Oh well, the others said these were good and would have these again. These doughnuts are pretty small, and they look pretty typical but it's all about freshness. For sure a popular place in the morning, because it's busy. It's only got a counter to order at, so you take these to go. They maybe no longer have any of the ones for vegans.

I ordered the assorted half dozen with 2 plain, 2 cinnamon, 1 sprinkles and 1 powdered donuts for $7.50. The line went by super quickly and we waited for less than 2 minutes. I was super excited to try them, because these were cute mini donuts. Unfortunately, they were super dry and dense donuts and I didn't enjoy them at all.

My friend and I stopped by this little stall inside the market. I'm normally not a fan of donuts, but we decided to try them out anyways. I'm so glad we did! Some flavors were premade and some were made fresh. I forget which ones were fresh, but I'd definitely recommend those ones! The other flavors were okay/pretty standard, but the fresh ones were definitely the standout.

Walking through Pike Place market, he can smell the amazing donuts so we had to get some. There was a short line and I could see the donuts being made fresh so we got a dozen cinnamon sugar. It was warm, fluffy and very delicious! I love how tiny they are!

No donut can compare to one that's still warm. Fresh as you can get without getting burned. Really liked the peppy guy in the glasses. I'd have stayed and talked to that guy for 3 hours if there weren't a line. Ha! Reminds me of Seattle in the 90s when everyone was happy like that. Spread it man!

The warm donuts are good but some of ours (the frosted ones) were cold. I might ask which ones are warm, and get only those next time.

Fresh and tasty! The line is usually pretty long though so plan to wait a bit. It does move fast and they are very tasty when they're coming fresh out of the machine! It's in the little hallway on the south side of the market from the fish tossing.

Daily Dozen Doughnuts is a must when visiting Pike Place Market. Sandwiched between other vendors, this tiny kiosk may be hard to miss....but your nose will help you find them. These donuts smell SO good. For reference, they aren't far from the fish throwers....so you can eat donuts, drink coffee, and watch a fish throwing show! Freshly baked, mini-donuts so you can eat a lot of them and not feel like an oinker. They have different combinations but if you really want to experience all their magic, get a mixed bag of their flavors. My partner and I shared them and then talked about them for hours after! So delicious! As of this review, they accept credit cards, but I paid with cash and it was greatly appreciated. Just a heads up. :)

Stopped by twice on this trip to Seattle. We got the half dozen plain. They were very good and piping hot. It is worth waiting in line. I would recommend a visit.

Daily Dozen Doughnuts is the perfect place to grab a snack when visiting Pike Place Market. You know these doughnut are fresh when you can watch them come right off the conveyor belt as you wait. Daily Dozen is a Pike Place Market staple that serves doughnuts and coffee drinks. I love grabbing a bag of these mini doughnuts and then munch on them as I walk around the market. There is always a line, but it moves fairly quick. My favorite flavors are maple bacon and cinnamon. They also have plain, sugar, powder and sprinkle. You can make a bag of assorted flavors if you want to try a variety.

Hot donuts made fresh in front of you--what's not to like? Looking for a late morning snack, we lined up and pretty quickly were handed a bag of seven donuts (they gave us a bonus one). We chose the cinnamon sugar flavor, since we noticed they were taking them directly from the machine and tossing them in the sugar to order, whereas the maple and maple bacon flavors seemed to be made ahead of time and sitting on a rack. It was a wise decision, since the ones we got ended up being piping hot and beautifully fresh. The cinnamon sugar added the perfect amount of sweetness. They were gorgeous. I don't remember the prices anymore but thought they were reasonable at the time, especially for being in such a touristy area.

Just go and eat the doughnuts. Sure, there are a plethora of doughnut bakeries throughout the Seattle area from massive chains to locally owned and operated. Daily Dozen sticks out because there is beauty in limited options, they are tasty, they are delicious, they are made before your eyes, and did I mention delicious? Located very close to our favorite throwing fish mongers Daily Dozen operates a small booth practically which is only staffed by one to two people. Go when the market opens - a powerfully nostalgic time for me and honestly, the best time to go - and grab a bag while wandering around. You know what they say about shopping on an empty stomach? Save yourself from hunger driven impulses and buy the cinnamon ones. They are my favorite!

We saw a long line at Daily Dozen Doughnut Company in Pike Place Market and figured it was worth checking out. Thankfully, the line moved quickly, and we didn't have to wait long. We're not typically big on sweets, especially donuts, but these bite-sized treats were perfect--not too filling and just the right amount for a quick snack. The donuts were still warm, and each flavor was equally enjoyable, even the plain ones were fantastic. Expect a line, but it's worth the wait (and it moves fast). The stand is near the stairs leading to the gum wall. We found a spot nearby to sit and enjoy our donuts with a lovely view of the ocean.

I am not a huge donut fan at all. I only came here to see what the hype was all about. We were here on a Sunday afternoon and there already was a long line. I ordered a mix bag of donuts and for the most part I wasn't crazy for them with the exception of the plain and white powdered donuts, now those were definitely very very good. They have one that has bacon bits which I had high hopes for and it was a huge letdown. I will definitely be back and get what I like next time.

Daily Dozen is a hidden gem amongst the various other hidden gems of Pike Place Market. I'm not certain if there are any other doughnut shops inside Pike Place Market, but this is the one you're looking for. Daily Dozen literally whips up the doughnuts on a conveyor right in front of your very eyes. Both times we went, the fan favorite was the cinnamon sugar topping. The employees were quick, efficient, and friendly, much like the other vendors we met along the way at Pike Place Market. There is a small seating area if you continue towards First Avenue, as well. Overall, this is not a place to miss!

Was super lucky to have joined a short line on a busy morning at Pike Place Market. Tried an assortment of flavors but the classic cinnamon sugar was so warm, fresh, and delicious. Unfortunately the maple one was kind of cold and not that great anymore. However, SUPER friendly staff behind the counter and seems everyone had wonderful exchanges with the cashier. Ate right by the stall afterwards and saw the line moves quickly!

Doughnut so delicious my wife stopped talking. Please open one up in Fort Worth! Seriously fantastic place.

No pictures because we devoured them as soon as the bag was handed to us! We got a mixed bag of doughnuts, and my favorites were the cinnamon sugar, sugar, and what I think were the plain/regular ones--served piping hot and absolutely delicious. It's located inside Pike Place Market, and be prepared for a long line on the weekends, but totally worth the wait!

So they were good and they are small like little white ones at grocery stores in bags. These are fresh though. The maple bacon were good.

The doughnuts were good but the service from the woman who works there was awful. She was unprofessional and rude. She gave me a dirty stare and attitude. I shouldn't have even bought the doughnuts but I waited in line for my kids. In the photo is the lady in the back. Hopefully, you get the guy who was much nicer.

So... The Daily Dozen Doughnut shop in the Pike's Market was also on my list to visit after watching multiple Youtube videos. After coming here once, I felt a need to come back again. Nothing magical, just delicious mini doughnuts. The shop is in an enclosed area to the left of the fish store (if you're looking at it straight on.) They were perfect after the Mac & Cheese, Clam Chowder, Piroshky and Starbucks. I mean there is never a bad time for a doughnut. (This was over a three day period.) If you get here at the right time the machine right behind the piece of glass is cranking out donuts and cooking them. They wind up on the serving tray either getting sprinkles, powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar. My favorite one wound up being the cinnamon sugar. Never had a big line and it would be worth the wait if it were a bit more than three minutes. I definitely recommend ou come here if you're visiting The Pike Market. KUDOs to the team at Daily Dozen Doughnut.

so many options and easy to grab and go these donut holes in Public Market Seattle! enjoy the hustle and bustle of the market and choose from a plethora of flavors like chocolate with sprinkles, cinnamon, powdered sugar. the chocolate one is a bit dry and plain, the maple one is delicious!

Stopped by on a Saturday morning around 10 AM and there was a decent size line but not too bad. I probably had to wait about 15 minutes before I got to the front, but luckily nothing had sold out yet. I ordered a half dozen of the maple, and a assorted half dozen of the cinnamon and sprinkles. In the future, I will skip all flavors and go straight for a dozen cinnamon. They were so good, the donuts were freshly out the fryer and immediately shaken with the cinnamon sugar powder, so those donuts were nice and warm. All the donuts were overall good, but easily the cinnamon donuts were the best. Good 1-2 bite sizes too. Definitely a good place to stop by for a sweet breakfast or snack!

Every time I'm in pikes this is a staple for us! Long lines because that's just how delicious these little doughnuts are! Fluffy and addicting they are! Fast service. Variety of flavors. Variety dozen is a fav for all.

Who doesn't love mini doughnuts? On a rainy day, cold day or even when you're "just really hungry"? They have several flavors and they are all great. BUT I recommend the cinnamon. Super hot and made right in front of you. Great to have when you are just walking around. Love them!!!

A MUST VISIT WHEN IN PIKE PLACE!!! These donut holes are made fresh at all times and are super affordable for the quality and amount you get!!! Lines can get long but goes quickly so they're well worth the wait. Enjoy a steamy donut on a cold rainy day and you'll be glad you fared the Seattle freeze outdoors for a bit just for a steamy bite of dough fried in fat and rolled in sugar. I always order the cinnamon and sugar donuts because those are the freshest out of the fryer and get tossed in the sugar mix right in front of you. The staff are fantastic and love goofing around and tossing donuts around to make a fun little show while you're paying. Being in the market, you can enjoy them right next to the flying fish, on the patio, or next to the gum wall, the choices are endless.

Visited: 11-18-2024 Following the great reviews on Yelp and added on the must to go lists of our Seattle trip but really disappointed. Not sure that may be we arrived there around 2 pm and that close to the closing time or not. Donut's were cold and almost frozen. This is the coldest donut I've had in my life. May be it would be better to serve warm. Give 2 stars for the service. The guys who helped us was so nice and friendly.

The gentleman working today was so pleasant. We had to get coffee here, bagel bop didn't have coffee today. But that was a blessing in disguise. We got to try a mini donut. We forgot to take pictures but they were warm and had just been tossed. They were so good. I got the cinnamon sugar and hubby got the maple glazed topped with bacon. Would go back!!!

MUST TRY if your a donut lover like me and my family! Do-nut forget to try this place! It's been a staple here at pike place with freshly donuts! So happy they have more donut options. When I lived in Seattle during lunch hours I would stop just to grab dessert here ever so often! The assorted variety you can do half a dozen about $7 dollars or so or grab a Dozen for $12 or some making these mini donuts a little pricey $1 or more a piece which is wild. But splurge a little on some fresh donuts! Assorted comes with cinnamon sugar which is first and hot , then they add the powered sugar be aware gets everywhere. And last the chocolate sprinkles last two donuts mention are cold. Then they now have maple and also maple bacon both cold but delicious if your a fan of both maple and bacon !!! Maryann was so sweet and even took a picture for us!

If you get here and there's no line, consider yourself very lucky. This mini doughnut stall always has a long line (especially in the morning), but it is so fun to stop by. In addition, service is so kind and quick that the line moves by pretty fast. I got a half dozen here and thought that it was pretty good. Maybe it's because I'm from Portland and have grown up with mini doughnuts, I'm a bit used to them. However, this place is still good and if you've never had the chance to try them before, I recommend checking this spot out! They have quite a few flavors and also some coffee to enjoy with your doughnuts, so it's perfect for the morning. And plus, there's just something about small pastries that hit the spot. :)

Staff: The man that helped us was very friendly. After providing us our donuts he was very helpful in directing us to the napkins, etc. Quality: One of our local favs so we always come here. Donuts are served fresh and warm. Value: Reasonable I'd say. Overall: Like I said one of our fav places to go. Pro Tip: It is right near the famous fish tossing spot in Pike's Place that everyone knows.

I stopped for some half a dozen donuts (3 powdered and 3 cinnamon sugar) and some coffee. All hit the spot! Stop by and try it for yourself and you won't be disappointed.

Mini doughnuts at Pike Place Market? It's a yes for me! Coming on a bustling Friday morning there was quite a line, but it moved fast and we only waited maybe 5-10 mins before ordering. We got an assorted half dozen of dozens and an iced coffee. We got 2 cinnamon sugar, powdered, chocolate covered, maple, and maple bacon. Service was quick, easy, and nice and all the donuts were delicious! It was a great amount for two people and still left us plenty of room to snack around Pike Place. There's a standup eating area right to the right of the counter to enjoy your treats as well!

This was a place I went on a food tour. They specialized in making mini donuts that came in many assorted flavors. They all were fresh as they consistently kept churning them out in one machine it looked like. I was able to sample a mini cinnamon sugar donut. It was a standard donut. The best part was how hot it was. It made it that much better. The donut was very light and airy. It just seemed like something was missing though or maybe it was just too small for me? Regardless, this type was okay. Will I go back? Debatable.

This donut shop was a small booth at Pike Place market. What's neat about this shop is that they have a mini donut-making machine. The donut batter automatically drops in a fryer, cooks for several minutes, and then moves across a conveyor belt to eventually land in a tray of freshly made donuts. I bought two powdered sugar donuts, two maple donuts, and two cinnamon donuts.They all had a crispy exterior and pillowy interior. The flavors are pretty standard, but they're a great snack to hold you over as you wait for your meals from other restaurants at the market.

A classic if you want the real seattle experience - went here growing up with my aunts and still love a mixed bag to this day

Cute little place that serves bite size donuts! I purchased the maple, but they also have powdered, maple bacon, sprinkles and even plain mini donuts! The only thing I thought was silly was their tip jar trying to use "God" to guilt for not tipping. Hmmm I believe if your service and attitude is great you will be rewarded. Simple as that.

Long lines for this little donut place. In the front, you can see the donuts being made by a small machine, the dough being fried and then they drop into a three tiered stand. We bought a dz maple bacon and 6 maple costing over $20. They were a good bite size and easy to eat. We wanted to bring them to SF intact in a box but they did not have any boxes to keep the donuts upright. Instead they were thrown in a brown bag and by the time we got to SF, the donuts were stuck together and the bacon bits came off. Tip - bring your own box if you plan to transport to your hometown and if you want a hot donuts, order the plain ones fresh from the machine. Donuts were pricey for the size and I hope they will carry boxes in the future. I don't mind if they charge for them. Can get messy rummaging through the brown bag to find your favorite, if you ordered the assortment. Variety is limited to plain, sugar, Sprinkles, maple and maple w bacon. Donuts looked cute but tasted OK, nothing to rave about.

There was a pretty long line about an hour before closing and we lined up to try this. As I was lining up, I could hear people passing by praising the donuts and how it's one of the best. I ended up ordering the half dozen assortment. I was honestly disappointed. Besides the freshly baked plain donuts (where they add cinnamon later on), every other donuts were cold. They're also on the denser side but became of how cold they were it was a bit tough to chew. But the cinnamon ones tastes great, they were fluffy, and aired out because they were fresh and came out piping hot. For the price, I don't know if I can recommend, but if you want to try I would highly recommend only getting the cinnamon ones.

Strollling around the Pike Place Market, we stumbled upon this place near the end of the market (closer to the Pike/1st Avenue entrance). I wasn't planning on buying donuts, but the display so cute and tempting. It didn't help that these were all bite sized mini (cake) donuts. When I arrived, the last batch of freshly made mini-donuts were coming off the conveyor belt and so I didn't get to witness the making in the process. The pricing ranges from under a $1 (plain) to $1.25 for the specialty donuts (maple bacon) each ($5.25 to $7.50 per half dozen) I'm not sure if these can be bought individually or if you need to purchase by the half dozen. We walked away with an assorted half dozen bag for the road. Honestly, these were simply bite sized, mini cake donuts--and it was all about the marketing. The donuts tasted pretty good, especially as fresh as it was. It was easy eating...2 bites. We bought the maple and the powdered donuts, The glaze wasn't sweet--it seem that way because of the small size, but the powdered ones were a little messy--to be expected. The cake wasn't dry, but it would have been perfect to go with a cup of coffee (which we did not get). I haven't come across many donut shops in my home city that sell mini cake donuts...more common are the donut holes. It's a cute concept and worth checking out..everyone has their own opinions about donuts and while these weren't anything super special, it was cute for it's mini size.

We are not big sweets eaters but love the mini donuts here! We got the plain, non coated mini donuts and they are the perfect amount of sweetness. They are made fresh and taste great fresh. A little bit of crunch and soft on the inside. Definitely an almost always stop when we are at pike's.

So good and fluffy! Located near the entrance of Pike Place Market near the flying fish. There is usually a lineup but it moves quick. The donuts are so addictive when they're hot in the bag. We got cinnamon sugar and they were perfect.

Mini donuts are the business and daily dozen speaks for itself. As in, you need your daily dozen of doughnuts here. If you want fresh hot donuts, you'll have to get plain or cinnamon sugar. Now which were my favorites? Probably maple and cinnamon sugar. Though sprinkles was nice too. I opted for only half a dozen (I know right?) but you can easily breeze through a dozen with a friend. Maybe the nice thing about these donuts is that they're doughy yet airy so it's a bit of the best of both worlds. Anyway, it's hard to miss the line here so definitely drop by and grab a bag if you're in Pike Place Market.

There are so many food options at Pikes that it's wonderful to be able to get small! A half dozen deluxe assortment (which means you can try a variety), is just $7.50 and well worth it. We each got to try a maple, a maple bacon and a cinnamon. The first two were not warm, but the cinnamon sure was. All three terrific and just the right amount for a nice treat for each of us. I would say three equals about the size of one normal size doughnut. They are served in a paper bag, so be sure to grab a couple napkins. Note: they do indeed take credit cards.
