Marietta Donuts

Firstly, they have great donuts. However they make a very small amount each day and when they sell out, they close. Today I went to pickup my pre-paid donut order, only to be met with doors locked and lights off. Warning, there is little to no parking. There is very little seating. Be prepared to pickup your food and good.

5 Stars Donuts!!! So fresh, soft, and colorful! I stumbled across them in the app "Too Good To Go". Will be back!!!

Popped in this morning for the first time. I was greeted by an incredible smell, and welcomed warmly from staff immediately upon arrival. I love the atmosphere here. Marietta Donuts offers the best donuts I’ve ever had. There’s something for everyone, and the price point is unbeatable. I can’t wait to try more of the menu.

Not much to the place, but it's all about the donuts anyway. There's only 2 little tables, and it gets a bit crowded if there's a line. I had a red velvet cream that was oh so good! But if course I couldn't get just one. So i got a chocolate cake for later. My hubby got 2 twists, one plain and one chocolate. The lady semed really nice, and I'm guessing she is the owner. Definitely worth a stop the next time we're in the area.

Wow! These are the best donuts I have probably ever had. Amazing! You will not be sorry, super fresh this Friday morning when I tried them. Hard to find though, the entrance is to the right of gas station store entrance, this is hidden behind the pumping area. I thought that was all just gas station, who knew!! I’ve lived in the neighborhood for over a decade now and missed this place. By chance found it while waiting for another place to open and saw great reviews online so thought I’d give it a try. Super nice people. Amazing donuts. Wow - wow- wow. Please give this small business a try!! Cookie Monster donut so creative! The Old fashioned was the best I have ever had! Apple fritter- insane!! Fritter was Light and fluffy, real apple pieces, perfect crunch on outside just the right amount of glaze…..soooooo good)

And the 3rd post for Roli's Bites of the Week goes to... @mariettadonuts in Marietta, Georgia! Hands down THE best BLUEBERRY donut of any shop I know of.... there is something special about theirs that makes it better than the other places. They also have a solid glazed but the glazed winner went to yesterday's post. Check them out and let me know what you think!! In the box: Blueberry, chocolate glazed, croissant glazed donut #Rolieats #rolisbitesoftheweek #donutweek #mariettadonuts #marietta #donuts #blueberrydonuts #bestblueberry #dontfightme

Poor location, but donuts more than make up for it. Top prize local donut shop as far as taste goes. Service from lady taking the order is always excellent and welcoming. Price is fair for the quality. Visited several dozen times. They close early and you may not have as large selection towards the end of the closing. First choice every time.

This quaint store front has doughnuts that are the right amount of sweet and fluffy. The different flavors are awesome. There was so much that I wanted to sample, but the variety dozen that I ordered was great. I was really impressed with the filling options.

--Location/Parking-- Located off a busy Marietta street, so it can be easily missed. I think I did two u-turns to find this place. --Ambience-- Small donut shop with only 1 or two tables. More of a take out place. --Service/Staff-- The staff was friendly, but disappointing to see that they kept apologizing for the food that was out. --Food/Products-- Freshly made daily donuts. I enjoyed the donuts, but they were too sweet for my taste, so I tried to order something savory, which they were out of. --Capacity-- Only one or two tables available for sitting. --Overall-- Saw this place in a news article. I will definitely be back to try out their savory items.

E X P E R I E N C E came on a Wednesday around 11am. there was one group before me and a group behind me. unfortunately they close at 2pm. I wish they'd open all day because my cravings hit ANY MOMENT and this is the only place I want to go to F O O D 4 lemon filled 2 twists, glazes oreo reeses smores 2 cinnamon apple fritter every single donut is perfection, not overly sweet. the breading layers are light and fluffy, not dense like cake. everything is balanced well. one of my favorite donut shops of all time. I'd always drive to this place, no matter how long it takes. the lemon and apple fritters are my personal favorite but all the others, are delectable. usually the chocolate ones are too heavy for me but honestly, you can't go wrong. Marietta donuts does it right I N T E R I O R simple. clean. well kept. no frills S E R V I C E mom and pop shop. owned by Asians. we've supported them for the past few years. they've always been amazing and so kind. they gave a free donut to the kids in front of me, which made their day service is always so quick and immediate. you'll be in and out within 5 mins for sure P R I C E 20

It's not too much to look at but it's a pretty amazing place. The donuts here are absolutely delicious. They're very light and fluffy, but have substance and incredible flavor. All the toppings are fresh and delicious. They also have a lot of different kinds here. My kid loves the elmo and the cookie monster ones. You also get a great value because they put donut holes in every box you order. Their filled donuts or items like eclairs are also excellent. Something about the chocolate icing on top is fantastic. It's rich and creamy and smooth and has a perfect taste. Overall they are some of my favorite donuts and while they usually look busy when we go by, I think we definitely will come again even if we had to wait

Went there around 10:30ish on Saturday and some donuts were all gone! Anyways, I got a dozen for the fam. Everyone loved the maple bar and blueberry donuts. Boston crème with custard filling was also good. I thought the regular old fashioned cake donuts were also pretty good--would be a dream with coffee I think. Same with the regular glazed donuts (which were very soft). I got a chocolate bar with vanilla filling and the filling was unneeded. I also got a ham cheese egg croissant and it was really nice, a quick breakfast to go. The person at the front was SO nice and everything was done efficiently. As others have stated, it's behind the gas station, in that same parking lot.

There is a wide variety of donuts available to choose from. And what you may not know about is that you can order custom donuts ahead of time to spell out whatever you want. This is a great idea for a gift, birthday or other celebration. They also have choices of fillings for the eclairs and other donuts. When I bought the chocolate covered eclair, I was allowed to pick from four different flavors of filling.

AMAZING DONUTS!! Be sure to get here early, as they sell out. Small store, but perfect fast service. Definitely better than other stores nearby.

OMG they are beyond tasty! And the lady that is giving the service is so nice and so friendly. I will definitely be coming back this are dangerously tasty donuts

Great fast customer service, they have plenty of donuts to choose from from glazed to cake and they are all delicious. They have coffee and other options to choose. There is one or 2 tables to sit but this is mostly a grab and go spot.

Um, yes! You're missing out if you have not gone here. Don't be put off that it is right next to a Shell gas station. There's always a line of people out the door no matter what time you come, but as Anthony Bourdain (maybe) once said: "If you see a long line, get in it." The kolaches and biscuits are great! Biscuits are handmade and right off the stovetop. The variety is huge, the people are so sweet, and the donuts are delicious. Skip Krispy Kreme and Dunkin and come here!

Our favorite neighborhood donut shop. Super friendly owners. We love all of the donuts and my favorite are the donut holes. Hopefully they haven't run out by the time you get here in the morning.

Wow! We saw Marietta Donuts, which is located in the same building as a gas station, while across the street eating lunch & joked "what if it's the best donuts ever & we've never been there because it looks like a gas station." We looked up the reviews and thought we had to give it a try! First impressions of the actual shop were great. It's brightly painted & full of great looking pastry - no frills but that's fine by me. The associate was friendly. We told him we'd never been before and asked him for a dozen donuts that he thought we should try. We loved that he seemed to really consider his choices, and even went to the back to get something that wasn't out front. Every donut we tried was good. Some were phenomenal! Glazed - a solid choice, yeast raised with sugar glaze like KK Chocolate glazed w/ sprinkles - same as above with a fudge frosting Blueberry- a muffin like donut Cinnamon Roll - subtle cinnamon flavor that I liked - would be great for breakfast Strawberry glazed - surprisingly fresh strawberry glaze, not artificial flavored Old fashioned - a stand out!!! The crunchy edges and sugar glaze were a great contrast to the soft and sweet center Chocolate glazed old fashioned - even better! Strawberry & Cream - a yeast donut split open and filled with pastry cream and fresh strawberries- This one was worth the visit all by itself Turtle - Another favorite- covered in caramel glaze with pecans. Totally eaten before we ever left the gas station parking lot These are by far better than the chain donut spots and, in my opinion, much better donuts than Duck Donuts or Donut Dollies. Try them!!!

This place is local and the donuts are my favorite in East Cobb. If that doesn't have you sold they also do a lot for the community and supporters of kids sports programs in the neighboring community.

WHAT A SURPRISE. Amazing donuts! Around $1.50 per donut. Soft, fluffy, a true hole in the wall donut shop. Sweet gal behind the register.

We went at 10:00 on a Saturday morning. They still had plenty of selection left. There were 2 people in line and more people came after us. In terms of COVID precautions, the employee was wearing mask. They don't have a sign out front that says masks are required, but they have masks on the counter for customers who walk in without. They also didn't have a sign that said social distancing is required, but customers were doing a good job of social distancing on their own. Now for the donuts. We got a half dozen. It came out to $6 + tax. Very cheap! Here's what we got, in order of my preference: - Glazed: Soft and airy. So good. - Old-Fashioned: Perfectly crunchy on the outside. Perfectly glazed. Yum. - Apple Fritter: We didn't really taste any apple, but it was still delicious. - Cinnamon Roll: Soft and cinnamon-y. So good. - Chocolate Cake: Normally cake donuts are my favorite, but this donut was just eh. I would probably try something else before I got this donut again. - Blueberry Cake: Again, normally cake donuts are my favorite, but this didn't have the same texture as other cake donuts I've had. It was also disappointing because, as far as we could tell, there weren't real blueberries in it. We would not get this one again. Overall, I was very impressed with this little donut shop. I would definitely go back! I recommend.

"You deserve a donut" says @mariettadonuts & yes, you DO!!!! Head over to this mom-and-pop shop in Marietta, GA. You wouldn't think much of it since it's next to a gas station but it's one of the better basic donut shops I've been to! I normally like cake donuts better, but this time, yeast takes the gold The chocolate cake could've used more flavor, the blueberry cake didn't have real blueberries in it, & the apple fritter barely tasted like apple However, the glaze on all of them was DELISH. Plus, this 1/2 dozen came out to be only $6! #winning Favorite: Original Glaze - amazingly airy & fluffy, pretty similar to @krispykreme. Old Fashioned was a close second with Cinnamon Roll coming in third!

Yum yum light and fluffy. Some of the best donuts I've had in a very long while. ( and I'm not a very big fan of donuts. So it's saying a lot) This place is tiny and it's hidden by gas pumps connected to a gas station. The store is small but very efficient. They allow 2 people in at a time social distancing is a big deal. The prices are $ we got a dozen and a half and they were all delicious. The blueberry ones were WOW. My fiancé said that the apple fritter was the best he has had. Must go to this place. To me they remind me of Voodoo donuts but even better.

This is a small, no-frills donut joint next to (not attached) to a Shell gas station. Parking was not a problem for me. The donuts were tasty and cheap, definitely a step up from Dunkin (albeit with similar selection.) I came in COVID times; they had hand sanitizer available and the man who helped me was wearing a mask. There was a sign saying card can only be used for $3 and up purchases; not sure if that's true with the pandemic but good to have as a backup if need be. There's some indoor space, but if you're worried about distancing I was in and out very quickly so there shouldn't be much crowding regardless. I got a double chocolate, strawberry frosted, and a cinnamon roll. Standard donuts are ~95 cents and larger ones are a little over a dollar. In addition to those they have plain donuts, blueberry, old-fashioned, twists, a cereal one, and more. The shelves weren't totally full around 12:45 pm (saw none of the fritters mentioned) so maybe call ahead to see what's available if you feel so inclined! Service was friendly, the donut was tasty, and I got two donut holes thrown in which was a win. Overall would recommend this as a solid, cheap, no-nonsense donut joint!

Seriously the best donuts in town! Classic flavor options, straight-forward, fresh and filled to the brim for the likes of Jelly and Boston Cream. I have not gone to any other donut shops in East Cobb since discovering Marietta Donuts. I haven't tasted any of the breakfast sandwiches, so I cannot comment on those but my family, coworkers and I love their donuts the best. Excellent quality!

Donuts were delicious and ready at 6am! Order for my son's class. I plan to over again!

We got some glazed and some chocolate cake donuts and both were good. The glazed are like clouds and puffy. Good taste but they are gone in seconds when you put them in your mouth. So probably have to get at least six to constantly enjoy the addictive flavor. The chocolate cake are a bit heavy. Good service. Ambience is nothing special. Get it to go. Next to a gas station.

Omgoodness!! Amazing donuts! Love every one I've had but especially the Apple Fritters and Cronut. Great family owned and operated!! Favorite donut place hands down.

Always a hit. My kids love their donuts! You have to get there early on the weekends because there is usually a line !

There was a line out the door. The donuts are decent. The coffee was not my favorite. The breakfast sandwich was hot and yummy.

Need some gas? Maybe a carwash? Or better yet, some donuts? If you answered yes to any of these, then you need to swing into the Shell station on Johnson Ferry Road in East Marietta to get your fill! Personally, I was after the donuts, so I darted to the right and made my way inside of Marietta Donuts! This place is tiny and no frills, they focus on the product and I ain't upset about it...I appreciate that focus on those sweet little rings of deliciousness! When I say tiny, I mean that there is enough room inside for about 3 folks max before you start feeling cramped. There is a cooler on one side, two tables on the other and the counter in the middle. Given the current situation, customers seem to be respectful of each other and tend to wait right outside the door if more than 3 people are inside. Covid precautions are visible, but not mandated it appears, as there is no signage. However, the employees are masked up and wearing gloves, and all the customers that were there during my visit were masked up as well. Parking could be an issue on busy donut getting days, but the Shell station isn't the busiest station, so there should be a spot most times, but there are only about 6 spots between the Shell and Marietta Donuts. If you happen to see a packed lot, then there is a little room to park at the curbs on both sides of the lot. Now, onto the reason we are all here...the donuts! I got half dozen assorted, which ran me around $7 for the ones I chose. I filled the box with (1) Cinnamon Roll, (1) Apple Fritter, (2) Blueberry, (1) Plain and (1) Strawberry Glazed. While I do not consider myself an aficionado of donuts, I will say that these were some of the lightest and airy donuts I have ever had. Light and airy is perfect for the glazed, but it was a little odd for the blueberry cake donuts. I expected a little more substantial of a donut, but it was really light and featured blueberry flavoring, not actual fruit pieces. It was a decent donut, but there wasn't much "blueberry" about it. The cinnamon roll was equally light in texture and was subtle in taste. Again, I was expecting a little more from it in ways of cinnamon flavor, but it was still a tasty treat. Per my partner, the apple fritter was solid with good apple flavor and pieces. The donuts were good, I don't want to take anything away from that...they definitely are lighter on flavor and profile than other spots I have had, but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy em - that is just the way Marietta Donuts does it! In addition to the donuts, I also grabbed an Iced Mocha. Nothing fancy, standard iced mocha drink to help wash down those sweet treats! Also, while I didn't partake, they do offer other breakfast favorites in the form of biscuits, croissants and bagels. Lastly, and this is something you don't see on the menu of a local donut spot, is kalaches'! They have a few varieties from sweet to savory. I definitely think I will have one thrown in on my next visit! Overall, Marietta Donuts is a solid local spot to pick up a sweet treat for yourself or the family. Between the mocha and the donuts, I spent around $10 which was worth it for me. Given all this, I will say that I will definitely be back...after all the box tells me that I deserve a donut!

This is a great little shop. The owners are very friendly. The location is convenient and always very busy. They have a great selection donuts, coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Everything is made fresh on site. I myself am a lover of cake style donuts. Theirs are soft and moist on the inside with that slight crisp on the outside. They also have a Kalache, a cheese filled sausage (hotdog) wrapped in a golden brown crispy but still soft croissant like (but not a croissant) bread. These are great for quick easy bite. This is definitely a must stop shop that everyone should try and I myself will be back again for sure. 10 thumbs up.

This place is sooo good! Their donuts are great; very fresh. There was a line on a Sunday morning, which is to be expected, I'm sure. We went at around 10 and they still had plenty of donuts. Employees were really nice. Will definitely be back.

A home run for fresh fresh fresh donuts! It is a gem! As noted, it is a little difficult to see from the fast pace of Johnson Ferry- the Shell Station is the landmark to turn- its at the end of the building. The staff are very friendly and they are making donuts throughout the day so if you get there at 9:30am, they are still soft and lovely!

Man, this place is a score! We love their donuts. Always colorful and fun and great service.

I'll caveat with I generally love donuts. Been fortunate to sample fried pastries all over. In the US have been to the tourist destination donuts like Voodoo and Blue Star. Where do I start, this place is amazing and a gem on so many levels. The donuts are simple and that is perfect IMO. They are really high quality and fluffy. The folks there are super friendly also. Included a pic of the location which is a complex with a Shell which you can miss if driving by. Icing on the donut they are not pricy at all. My friends and I already have gone through a dozen today and will need a second dozen tomorrow. I'm pretty sure if the owners review the security camera footage will see me with a huge smile on my face and swearing under my breathe why were these donuts were soo good. Kudos!

Doughnuts are always so good. We love this place!

Hands down the best donut I have ever eaten. When you go in you can choose a donut and they go back and fill it with the filling of your choice. I swear the donut weighed 1/2 a pound when filled! Fresh, delicious. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

This is our Birthday Donuts spot...THIS is where we wake up early in the morning to go get the birthday donuts for every birthday we celebrate at home. Unfortunately during pandemic times, we havent felt comfortable walking into establishments and did Duck Donuts Door Dash delivery. No More! These donuts are delicious, well-priced, and after reading other reviews, they look like they're doing all the right stuff to "protect" their customers and employees. Random Just Because Donuts? That will be happening a lot now. We want to keep this business in business.

This is easily the best donut shop in East Cobb. The donuts are made on site and have the traditional donut taste and texture that you expect when you crave a donut. Quick and friendly service too!

Hidden gem in Marietta! I loved my experience at Marietta Donuts, and I look forward to coming again and again. The kind employee was wearing a face mask amidst COVID-19. The donuts were phenomenal. Also, they have a smart system where the donuts are exactly $1 each including cash. This makes it very easy to pay with cash. Overall, I had a great experience here, and I look forward to visiting again.

Try and get there early as the donuts will still be warm. They open at 6 AM. The only place I'll go to get donuts!!

if there was a 6 star option that's what this business would be. 100/10 service is awesome and the donuts are unimaginable

The place is very unassuming and well priced. The donuts are always fresh and cooked immediately. Nice to see a family take pride in their establishment Some of the other items are really really good, too.

Decent cake and yeast donuts next to a gas station. It's a 3.5* in that I'd visit if I was in the area in the mood for a donut. PSA - Go to the SHELL GAS station...don't bother looking for a donut shop! Really hidden. =. Ambiance is a tiny donut stand at the gas station. They have a separate entry and it's really a "to go" only. +. Donuts were okay. I had a glazed and a Boston cream which were fine. Not great but not bad. +. Price was average +. Service was okay = Limited ~3 parking spots in front of the shop This donut shop didn't live up to the hype for me. Both donuts were just fine but not enough for me to drive over just for them again.

Best donut shop around. Don't mind it being next to a gas station because it's the real deal.

I tried the donuts again a few weeks ago because of all the good reviews. I wanted to give them another chance. The donuts were good. I'm not a huge donut fan, so I'm also not a donut expert. They were good, but to me, I didn't see anything hugely amazing about them either. They are kind of a medium weight dough, not light and airy, and the apple fritter could've used more apples. Prices are reasonable and cashier was very pleasant.

Stopped in again for more. Blown away again by the quality and value. Do yourself a favor and buy a dozen of plain glazed. You won't be disappointed. The plain glazed it truly their best. Get a couple fancy donuts for the kids and spouse but the plain glazed are where it's at ( and I'm a chocoholic-so this means a lot!) Don't let the exterior fool you. Inside lies the most delicious donuts I have tasted. What this shop lacks in looks it makes up in flavor and charm. We taste tested a blueberry cake, chocolate iced with sprinkles and apple fritter. We went late in the afternoon and they had decent selection available. We will go again early in the morning to experience the full selection. I think we may never set foot in a Dunkin Donuts again. This place takes the cake

We just happened to pop into the gas station to fill up and noticed Marietta Donuts. I'm not one to pass up on the opportunity to try a new donut shop so I popped in. I'm so glad I did! This donut shop was bright and colorful inside. Their donuts looked tasty and they had some unique toppings like cereal on some of their donuts too. I ordered 4 donuts - an eclair, apple fritter, Old fashioned, and chocolate old fashioned. They were all delicious! One thing that I love about this donut shop is that if you order a donut that can be filled like an eclair or round whole ones, you can pick the filling and they will fill it for you! The donuts and nice and airy and the price was surprisingly great too! These 4 donuts (a couple of which were a generous size) only cost around $5. I definitely want to come back and try other flavors and to check out their breakfast sandwiches! Please check out Marietta Donuts if you're in the area!

I can't recall the last time I had to wait 10 minutes to purchase my order. Am I complaining? No, not at all. After seeing a line extending out the front door, I knew I had to check them out. It seems that a lot of folks wanted these donuts as well. Some people were walking out with several dozens too! I give this donut shops 2 big thumbs up for the quality and variety of donuts offered. Make a trip to this shop soon. You will not be disappointed

Skip the gas line and park right back to Marietta Donuts and pick up at least 1/2 dozen donuts! It's was my 1st time there. Disregard the interior decor (or lack thereof) and feast your eyes on the rainbow spectrum of simple humble donut options: glazed, old fashioned, jelly, chocolate, strawberry icing with sprinkles, red velvet, blueberry, etc. Since I built high expectations on the buttermilk donut, it actually tasted different from what I expected (maybe I confused it for a sour cream donut?) so then I "reluctantly" resorted to tasting a glazed, 1/2 of eclair with custard and some glazed donut holes. The size of the donuts was ideal; not too doughy big and not too small either. The dough density was lighter and airier than what I expected, even lighter than Crispy Kreme's. Cooked well and somewhat crispy outside in certain parts. It may also be my Northern taste buds but the glaze on all the donuts seemed very very sweet. Nonetheless, still very good donuts in its own right and at extremely inexpensive prices. Nice little treat on the weekend with or without refilling the gas tank! Worth the trip!

I noticed this little place as I was getting gas one morning. Service was fast & friendly. I ordered an egg & cheese biscuit. It was very good but did not taste like a "homemade" biscuit. Seemed more like a pillsbury "can" biscuit but a good grab & go breakfast none the less. I did not try any donuts but there was a steady flow of customers ordering donuts to go.

I am in town visiting from Texas and I came here to get a kolache. They were sold out so I tried the red velvet cake donut and omg it was so tasty! I was not anticipating it being so flavorful and moist. Usually when I get cake donuts they tend to be a little dry, but not this one. We also tried the croissant sandwich, which was really good and made to order. Next time I'm in town I'll definitely return here!

Same price as Dunkin' but waaaay better! These delicious pastries melt in your mouth and are worth every calorie. Do yourself a favor and get a box!

Gosh, if you want the freshest and tastiest donuts EVER, go to Marietta Donuts. The Cinnamon Roll is one of our favorites, but also a vanilla filled chocolate donut, yum.

Best donuts made fresh the jelly filled were really good and they fill them when you order.we also had the donut holes that were just made and still were warm yum.
