Duck Donuts — Restaurant in Columbia

Since I was a kid, donuts have always been my favorite "cheat food". One of the nagging problems I've had with the Columbia area since moving here 4 years ago is that it didn't have a local donut shop. While I have nothing against "commercial" donut shops, in my experience the quality from a local donut shop is typically far higher.

Enter Duck Donuts! Columbia's first local donut shop is also the best donut shop I've ever had! One of the keys to making a great tasting donut is freshness. While some commercial shops sometimes have glazed "hot off the press", EVERY donut you get at duck's is hot off the press and the difference in taste and texture is staggering.

Furthermore, the amount of possibilities for topping combinations is incredible. While at first this seemed overwhelming, they have suggested combinations posted that help you through your first order and I'm happy to think the vast combinations possible will keep me engaged in wide variety for a long time to come. I was surprised to find I personally enjoy fruity combinations as it tends to make the donut taste "lighter" and "fresher" but this is of course my personal preference and subjective in nature.

I have only one complaint about duck donuts. They're too far of a drive from Chapin. Here's hoping that duck enjoys enough success to expand to a location much further west (Chapin, Ballentine, Harbison) as currently the drive is one of sheer dedication for my...

I've heard so much about this place but never took the time to visit. I happened to be in the area and decided to see what all the hype was about. When I walked in, it was slightly overwhelming because I didn't know what to do. There was an area to fill out custom cards for your order but also a line and no one was really helping to direct where to go. I had to ask 2 people (customers) if they knew what the process was. They were new and just shrugged in confusion like me. I finally just stood in line with a blank form and asked the lady taking the order what I should do. I chose my donuts and patiently waited for my order to come up. Before this visit, I didn't know they were made fresh, like as soon as you order them kinda fresh. About 8 min into my wait and the 6th customer waiting for their order, I was tempted to ask for a refund and just stick with the other donut places. Let's just say I'm glad I didn't. These were the BEST donuts I've ever had. I initially got 2 for each of my daughter's but didn't tell them and kept theirs for myself giving them one a piece... don't judge me. I will...

I truly love the doughnuts here at Duck Donuts - Cross Hill Market.

I am constantly an admirer of doughnuts that is the reason I visited Duck Donuts - Cross Hill Market. I in a general sense need to try what their doughnuts have a picked overhaul like.

Detectable Doughnuts pounds my hankering. Their doughnuts tastes mind blowing. If all else fails, even the key made doughnut tastes shocking. The espresso I should state, they keep it clear. Regardless, it truly suits with the doughnuts well. Not sweet that you'll wrap up being depleted on it.

The place is boggling. Nothing a wealth of rich. They kept up it generally energizing and clean. I even go there just to sit and loosen up while eating a spot of doughnuts with some espresso.

Occupation well done Duck Donuts - Cross Hill Market. Will return...
