The Doughnut Social — Restaurant in Brighton

THE BEST DOUGHNUTS I HAVE EVER HAD!! I AM HIGHLY ADDICTED TO THESE DOUGHNUTS! Sorry 'Krispy Kreme', but these, By Far Surpass, In Quality, Taste, Size, and Value!!

They Aren't Too Sweet either, They're Perfect! I do not like Doughnuts/Pastries that are overpowering sweet, to the point you cannot finish one, and you're chugging some type of beverage in between bites to get through it.

They're BIG Doughnuts too! The Apple Fritters are The Biggest, Best, Apple Fritters I have ever seen or Tasted, and they're So Yummy! They have Several Different Flavors of Fritters too, from memory, these are the flavors I remember, some I've tried, the Classic Apple, Cherry, Strawberry, Raspberry, Pineapple, and I think Peach.

The Best Part, is if you're ordering a Larger Amount of Doughnuts to take home, and they might sit in the box on your counter for a day or two, they'll stay soft like the day they were made/purchased! The first time I bought Doughnuts from 'Doughnut Social', I purchased a dozen, and a couple of days later I was surprised to find that they were still perfectly soft in the original box!

I am rather bummed because of the new business hours, but I also understand what the reason probably is.

It is Great Having a Doughnut Shop In Town that is Open All Day, I am Elated to have one available, and to boot, one that makes the Best Doughnuts, and a Variety of Drinks too! I tell even my out-of-town peeps to make sure to stop by and try your Doughnuts, instead of Krispy Kreme.

♡Thank You For Everything 'Doughnut Social' Owners and Employees, Keep Up The Great Work! You're Greatly...

I pre-ordered 7 dozen doughnuts for a celebration and needed to pick them up at 6:30 a.m. My order was not ready at that time. The doughnuts were delicious but they don't offer any gluten-free options that I needed for a colleague with celiac disease. (I had to place a separate order from a new doughnut shop that just opened in the Larkridge Center in Thornton.)

I was also told over the phone that I would get a 3% discount for this large order, but that never happened. In fact, they wanted to charge my credit card twice because they claimed it didn't go through the first time. Then I was charged an extra 3.5% "processing fee" for using my credit card, which I was never told about. The owner, Jane, was quite snippy with me over the phone and said she would email me a proper receipt the following week (for accounting purposes) showing the price of $130.72 for the 84 doughnuts I purchased, instead of the $125.54 that it was supposed to be before the "processing fee" (a difference of $5.18, which is actually more than 3.5%). I never received her email nor a corrected receipt. This is not the way to run a business.

I try to support local small businesses when I can, but I certainly won't be ordering from The Doughnut Social again. Their doughnuts are very good, especially the Oreo ones, but the owner does not seem appreciative of my patronage. Not once did Jane apologize for any confusion or even thank me for ordering from them. To end on a positive note, I believe they offer a military discount, which is nice that they support our men and...

See... I don't even know what to write really. I was praying we get a local donut shop that is not a major chain store like King Soopers etal... So I was really excited to see were finally getting one, albeit it's at the other end of town(old part as I call it). Today was the first day I could stop by to see what's up. Came in and was amazed at their selections. I mean they have a lot more than I would have imagined. So I decided to sample as many as possible so I went for the mix box for a dozen. I grabbed the filled donuts and a few regular donuts. I had forgotten my wallet but they do accept phone pay, I was able to use my phone to Google pay so saving me an embarrassing 30 min round trip just to go retrieve the wallet. Now I'm sitting here at home with a cup of coffee devouring them. They are so soft and not dense like most found at local stores. And they are delicious. So my verdict? Best donut shop around not even close. I wasn't expecting much and had lowered my expectation but they blew the whole thing out of the park. And the people working there they're so nice and did not rush me any. It is Tuesday and 8 AM and wasn't busy at all either. Definitely support them if you love pastries. I also saw some Barista style coffee machines in there so seems they may serve coffee? I did not ask. Will update my next visit after I ask. Just word of advice for people who want a quick service or impatient people, right now is a soft opening so it's not full speed yet so be patient. But...
