Doughnut Shops in Portland

From food carts to pizza to fried chicken, Portland is a renowned destination for food of all sorts. Doughnuts are another Portland classic, with the City of Roses continuing to climb national best-of lists. Portland doughnuts run the gamut from old-school classics to inventive culinary creations.

Voodoo Doughnut

Big things keep happening for Voodoo Doughnut. In addition to helping put Portland on the doughnut map (and giving everyone a delicious taste of the “Keep Portland Weird” local flavor), the beloved purveyors of over-the-top treats set the world record for the largest box ever filled with doughnuts in 2011. Their iconic downtown location features a maple bacon bar memorialized in stained glass and the opportunity to fulfill every sweet desire, at almost any hour (Voodoo only closes from 3–5 a.m.) — not to mention a second location that opened on Portland’s eastside in 2008.

Since 2003, Portland’s Voodoo Doughnut has sold millions of wacky, sugary snacks — and the downtown landmark still attracts lines at all hours of the day.

Coco Donuts

If you prefer your pastries a bit more traditional, local mini-chain Coco Donuts has numerous locations across town, including shops downtown (just steps from Pioneer Courthouse Square), uptown (near Providence Park), in Southeast Portland’s Brooklyn neighborhood, on the Portland State University campus and in North Portland on North Skidmore Street. There, you’ll find classic doughnut shapes and toppings, though you just might want to take a chance on the signature lavender glaze. Coco’s raised doughnuts are as light as air, and each espresso drink comes with a gratis doughnut hole.

Mikiko Mochi Donuts

Not your grandmother’s doughnut shop, Mikiko Mochi Donuts specializes in inventive (and delicious) flavors like yuzu Funfetti and horchata pudding. They also serve doughnut holes, breakfast sandwiches, hot tea and more. Everything on the menu is gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free, making Mikiko Mochi a no-brainer doughnut destination for folks with special diets.

Pip’s Original Doughnuts & Chai

In Northeast Portland, Pip’s Original Doughnuts & Chai is all about simplicity. The neighborhood café features an unbeatable selection of hand-mixed chai teas and fried-to-order mini-doughnuts. Tiny but mighty, Pip’s creations include a basic cinnamon sugar flavor, an indulgent Nutella-drizzled number and a standout Himalayan sea salt version with local honey, among others.

Blue Star Donuts

Bridging the divide between zany and traditional doughnut offerings is Blue Star Donuts, another local mini-chain. Inventive, gourmet glazes — like blueberry basil bourbon or lemon poppy seed — top distinctively delicious brioche-like rings. Find Blue Star shops in Goose Hollow, on Southeast Division Street and on the South Waterfront. There’s even a Blue Star at Portland International Airport, so short-term visitors can enjoy gourmet doughnut goodness too.

Delicious Donuts

Delicious Donuts is a low-key, family-owned doughnut shop tucked among the warehouses of the Central Eastside. You’ll want to get there early to taste their classic pastries, as they often sell out before closing.

Annie’s Donut Shop

A beloved, long-running spot in the Roseway neighborhood, Annie’s Donut Shop is old-fashioned in all the best ways. From the classic sign out front to the plastic booths to the doughnuts themselves, Annie’s winning formula has stood the test of time. Enjoy favorites like maple bars, crullers and bear claws, all baked fresh daily and affordably priced.
