"Peter Pan is located on a bustling stretch of Manhattan Avenue, and is the benchmark of quality donuts. This Polish owned bakery offers a huge variety of freshly baked donuts, bagels, and bialys every morning, but don’t be too late or everything will be gone. While many people claim they know of the ‘best donut in town’, Peter Pan is a serious contender for the title. They are incredible. Not only that, but they are ridiculously well priced. Don't be late or they'll all be gone." - Milkshake
"The massive, frisbee-sized cinnamon roll at this Greenpoint institution reminds us less of Cinnabon and more of a Little Debbie’s honey bun. It’s fluffy and coated in a very sticky glaze that you’d be a fool to not lick off your fingers. Few things have ever paired better with black coffee." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, will hartman
"This 1950s Greenpoint bakery is especially great for kids, and not just because the donuts are delicious. Sit at the counter for a throwback experience—you can check out the seasonal decorations in the windows and talk about the fact that the place is technically part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. (Worth bragging about at school the next morning.) Peter Pan’s sour cream and apple crumb are our favorites, but rainbow-sprinkle purists won’t be disappointed either." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
"A beloved Greenpoint bakery best known for an especially delicious blueberry cake doughnut that the speaker singles out as a go-to indulgence." - Francky Knapp
"Ask anyone who knows their Brooklyn food bonafides where to get the best donuts, and they’ll tell you Peter Pan. If they don’t say Peter Pan, they’ll say Moe’s (more on that below). This Greenpoint spot has been open since the 1950s, and their donuts are old school, but still draw a line that's usually out the door. Order a box (make sure this includes the apple crumb) or sit inside and pair your donut with a breakfast sandwich and a coffee." - molly fitzpatrick, carlo mantuano, sonal shah, neha talreja, kenny yang
