LaMar's Donuts and Coffee — Restaurant in Kansas City

Will never go back. Lamar’s used to be a family staple in our top few donut shops but now it’s terrible in taste and terribly expensive. We haven’t been in a while because last few times we’ve tried something changed the dough recipe or something they don’t taste good. Today my son wanted birthday donuts for breakfast (tradition in our family). Because Holt’s just happened to be closed for the week, we had limited time & we ended up at Lamar’s, hoping for the place that used to be in our donut rotation would be good again. The doughnuts leave this terrible costing and after taste in your mouth, and far too sweet without any flavor. Seriously grocery store or gas station donuts are WAY better. And then there was the cost! Just over $24 for a family of 6 to get 6 donuts!! What?!?! And I didn’t go crazy on the specialty donuts- $24 for 3 cake donuts, 1 round donut WITH a hole (so 4 donuts with a hole which are the cheapest donuts you can get) and only 2 specialty donuts. I know inflation is crazy, but for a donut that is out of hand. Even Krispy Kreme is way cheaper! If they were quality donuts the price would be worth it once in a while for a birthday donut tradition, but sadly this is the last time Lamar’s will get to try to...

I spent $60 on donuts delivered this morning and 5 of the donuts i ordered were supposed to be chocolate iced but they came maple iced instead. The scent of maple is overwhelming from this box of donuts and the pictures prove it. This is the second time I've had this experience so I called the store to figure out why. The woman answering the phone said she packed my box and she gave me chocolate. I clearly do not have chocoloate and offered to send her a picture, she refused the picture, insisted she packed it correctly and that I am lying and then hung up on me. DO NOT ORDER DELIVERY FROM THIS STORE, THEY SEND THE WRONG THING AND THEN REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY COULD HAVE POSSIBLY MADE A MISTAKE. Worst...

Doughnuts were significantly smaller than any other doughnut shops around, including doughnuts in grocery store bakery cases. I hoped they would still be tasty, but they were dry, and the icing crumbled off the top when eating them. They tasted like they were made the day before. I don't mind paying for a really good doughnut because they are one of my favorite foods, but these doughnuts are very overpriced for the size, and not worth it for the quality. Such a disappointment.

I would give them 1 star, but I have to give them 2 stars only because they offer peanuts as a topping choice which is hard to find in doughnut shops at this point. Regardless though, we...
