Fancy Donuts — Restaurant in Tyler

If Willy Wonka opened a donut shop and decided to do a little barista-ing (probably not a word) on the side, Fancy Donuts would be it. I stopped by for a specific drink and I left questioning my loyalty to every other donut place on Earth.

First off, the banana cream matcha was excellent. It was honestly the main reason why I went. It was smooth, creamy, and had the perfect balance of sweetness and that earthy matcha flavor, just on the lighter side. I’m still easing my way into the world of matcha, so this was perfect for me. It was like dessert and emotional support in a cup.

Then came the donuts. A colorful, sprinkle covered lineup of happiness. Whoever decorates these clearly missed a calling in modern art. The strawberry mochi donut was my favorite. Chewy, not too sweet, and shaped like it was designed for both social media and immediate consumption.

The kolaches (pigs in a blanket) were a surprise hit. Warm, soft, and packed with flavor. Like breakfast wrapped itself in a cozy blanket. They almost had an ever so slight sweetness to them. My boys tore them up.

Their selection is huge, so be ready to make some tough decisions. But once you do, you’ll be rewarded with something delicious.

Come for the donuts, stay for the banana cream matcha, and leave full, happy, and probably wondering if you should come back later just to make sure it really was that good.

Last but definitely not least. The staff. The 2 young ladies who were working were both friendly and helpful. They answered all of my questions with a smile and made some great...

I tried Fancy Donuts via delivery and had a pretty solid experience overall. The brown sugar cinnamon latte was delicious—and I appreciated that the ice was sent in a separate cup so it didn’t get watered down. Thoughtful touch! I ordered a fancy donut and a cake donut, but didn’t see an option to choose specific flavors. I received a chocolate glazed with cookie crumbles and a cinnamon sugar old-fashioned. Both were tasty, just not flavors I would’ve personally picked. I also tried the bacon, egg, and cheese croissant. It was decent, but arrived a bit cold—likely from being packed next to the ice cup. All in all, the food was good, but next time I’ll probably stop by in person to get the full experience and choose my own flavors. Edit:I guess I was still half asleep but there is an option to...

Sooo happy we have this amazing new spot in Tyler! I'm obsessed with their Blueberry Matcha. To have milk tea options, breakfast, and donuts available so close to my house and they are open way later than your typical donut shop. They definitely set themselves apart with the variety in their menu as well as having the quality to back it up. I've enjoy their donuts, everything bagel with bacon egg and cheese, croissant egg and cheese, cookie croissant, brown sugar milk tea, and blueberry matcha. Classic donuts are on point and delicious, Mochi donuts have a great texture and flavor without being too sweet. Love the croissants the most I think but seriously everything has been good. I've been telling everyone about this place since it opened and I hope we see good support for this local...
