Maynard's Donuts & Coffee — Restaurant in Florida

Updated due to last two visits please read full review:

Best doughnuts I have had! They were fresh and were unique. They have so many types I cannot list them all. The Hawaiian coffee is also unique and I enjoyed it. I would say that outside of a certain chain coffee company, it is the best coffee in Pensacola.

The atmosphere was inviting and the service was great. This will be somewhere I frequent going forward.

Update 2/22/2020

We went once and love it, hence my original review. We have now went back twice just to find out that they were sold out of doughnuts before 230pm. Not even a single doughnut!

We went by today at 2:28 and found a hand written note on the door that said thanks for buying them out today. My father in law walked in and asked if they had a couple of left overs at least. The guy said, no we are out.

My wife asked why they would not prepare for the Mardi Gras crowd. The guy just said that they ran a few specials and were sold out.

I don’t think we are going to visit again unfortunately. We dive about 25 minutes from the hotel just for these doughnuts just to find, they are all gone and they cannot make more so early in the...

I’ve only had the cinnamon twist but WOW, it’s delicious! They were out of the cinnamon rolls otherwise I would’ve gotten that too. I walked in cause I hadn’t seen this store before, but to be fair, I don’t live near the area. This place has a very cute vibe and I can definitely see students or young adults gather here. I got to meet Richard today, and he was so polite and patient with me when I was asking all the questions about the flavors of the donuts and recommendations cause I don’t like anything too sweet. The cinnamon twist is perfect. I have yet to try the other donuts that I got (pbj donut, turtle donut, pumpkin spice donuts, and French toast donut). But visually, I’ve got no complaints since each donut looks fantastic. Even the box is alluding to the special tourism wonders that florida has to offer and I can tell that they’ve put so much thought and care into every detail. The service was fantastic! I enjoyed meeting Richard today, and he gave me a couple of donut holes to try as well which made my day even more. I hope if you’re reading this review, you give them a try, and continue to support their...

2 stars for show. 0 for quality and freshness.

TLDR- crusty, dry, and forgot to fill donuts. This place was made for Instagram. Beautiful view but you’ll be disappointed if you want to eat them.

Our donuts usually look very pretty and the shop is always clean and cute. Only thing is the dough is like a strange flavorless dinner roll. All our donuts today were hard on the outside and too doughy despite the fillings.

Our Boston crèmes had NO filling at all. This is not an exaggeration- they literally forgot to fill them. The gigantic cinnamon roll was super dry even after microwaving it, and one area under the frosting looked burnt.

I have been wanting to love Maynard’s since they opened. I like to support local businesses and go next door to Bon Beans frequently and visit small bakeries all over town. It’s terribly disappointing.

I must say their cake donuts are better, so I get that if my family is going. I much prefer the smaller donut shop Lickin Good Donuts, which has amazing Boudin, Kolaches, and apple...
