The Original Rainbow Donuts

Well in my Donut Journey in Phoenix I discovered Rainbow Donuts. The donuts are massive in size. The flat square Cronut is fantastic, flaky, glazed, flavor bomb that sent me on a sugar high. The donut holes were fantastic & I wish I had gotten some. These were free. They were little bombs of delight that I could not stop eating them. The rest were just good average donuts. I would definitely stop back and would recommend the donut holes and Cronut.

Simple and delicious donut shop with coffee and other sandwiches, the staff are so friendly. Enjoy the vintage donut parlor vibes!

Picked up a dozen just to try. Doesn’t seem to be much difference in taste of donuts place to place. Donuts were good but nice day so wanted to sit outside but tables were absolutely covered in bird poop. The bathrooms were marked out of service doors locked. Not sure how i ate the donuts looking at cleanliness of place. I guess took donuts home to forget about eating there. Blocking those images out did enjoy the donuts. No plans to return though. Cannot unsee the outside tables.

When it comes to donuts, consistency is key. It takes one bad donut for me to not return to a donut shop since there is no shortage of shops in the valley. I have donuts weekly at places throughout the valley and Original Rainbow Donuts has been high quality and super consistent. The yeast donuts are typically very soft and moist; and the cereal toppings are always fresh. Staff are great and the store/location leaves much to be desired. But at the end of the day, what matters is the donut itself. Original Rainbow Donuts offers perhaps the best overall donut in the North Phoenix area.

Absolutely the best donuts in the entire Phoenix Metro area. I recommend the red velvet cake donut or the blueberry cake donut. Their buttermilk bars are also the absolute best! This is not dunkin' donuts, this is the real deal!
