Best Donuts in Long Beach

"Peter Pan is a Greenpoint institution where servers wear teal and pink, the doughnuts cost $1.10, and there are always a few old regulars perched at the counter. The red velvet doughnuts are popular, but the best options are even simpler. Go for the pillowy honey dip, or the craggy sour cream cake doughnut."

"Peter Pan has been a doughnut shop-staple for over 60 years. This unassuming bakery in Brooklyn uses the same recipes they started with. Here you will find basic (but delicious) cake, sugar, and old fashioned doughnuts."

"Restaurants Bakeries West Village. Since 2014, beloved pastry chef Umber Ahmad—along with pastry-partner Shelly Barbera (Brooklyn Fare, Aldea)—has been running her wholesale operation online, cranking out her famous cheesecakes and brioche doughnuts from a Harlem kitchen, much to the delight of her devoted customers (Oprah and Tom Colicchio are notable fans.) At this West Village location, savory goods have their place on the menu, as well as new brioche morning buns and fresh tarts, alongside longtime favorites (dark-chocolate brownies) and a full-service coffee-and-espresso bar to boot."

"This polished, exotic-sounding West Village bakery/café delivers baked goods that are inspired by flavors and tastes the world over. Sure, you'll get the standard cakes, brownies, and cookies requisite to any proper NYC bakery, but let your palate explore and you'll turn up some deliciously unusual culinary finds, too, courtesy of the creative dessert handiwork of pastry stars Umber Ahmad and Shelly Barbera (who are backed by celebrity chef Tom Colicchio). Case in point: decadent, cream-filled or chocolate "choux"; Linzer cookies; coconut cakes; and their signature brioche donuts."

"Umber Ahmad and Shelly Barbera’s West Village bakery serves the team’s signature dense brioche doughnuts, which are filled with a standout vanilla cream and dusted with sugar. The doughnut hole extracted from the center of the pastry comes along with it, sitting on top of the regular doughnut."

"The dish: DonutsThe journey of donuts in NYC starts with its first-ever donut shop down on Broadway near Maiden Lane, opened in 1673 by Anna Joralemon (this true American hero deserves a statue there!). Since then, donut options have blanketed the city through boxes of Entenmann’s, big-name chains, small artisanal shops, and hybrids like the Cronut (which caused mass hysteria after its 2013 debut, and was sold by scalpers at up to $100 a pop during its peak craze). For a modern-day take on the classic fried pastry, Dough’s donuts are just that: Founded in 2010 in the Bed-Stuy area of Brooklyn by Fany Gerson, each donut is 4” in diameter and handmade in small batches, with popular flavors including plain glazed, cinnamon sugar, and dulce de leche."

"These big, chewy yeast doughnuts often get a savory turn at the Doughnut Project, where flavors could include olive oil and black pepper or everything spice with cream cheese frosting. If savory doughnuts especially appeal, opt for the beet version, which comes dipped in an earthy, magenta glaze and generously filled with ricotta so lightly sweetened this doughnut could almost qualify as lunch."

"We are starting with a bang because this is my FAVORITE doughnut shop in the city. Once I discovered Donut Pub, I knew I would forever compare every other doughnut to these soft and delicious pastries. The Donut Pub has two locations that serve old-school style doughnuts 24-hours a day."

"Being a location with a long history, some of the most popular flavors at the Donut Pub are the simple, classic ones like the honey-dipped. The shop is also known for its coconut, red velvet and blueberry donuts which aren’t overly sweet."

"Donuts draw crowds 24/7 to this modest spot also selling pastries, sandwiches & coffee since 1964. 203 W 14th St, New York, NY 10011"

"Everything from the dough to glazes, fillings, and toppings are handmade in-house—and, if your bakery crawl crew has both cake doughnut and yeast doughnut devotees, worry not. Doughnut Plant has both covered. While there are plenty of classic-round doughnuts to obsess over (including seasonal varieties, like gingerbread, marzipan, and roasted chestnut) don’t miss out on DP’s signature shapes: filled square and “doughseeds.” For the former, try the Coconut Cream (“We break fresh coconuts open daily”)."

"Doughnut Plant has the creamiest, most delicious oat lattes & the creme brûlée doughnuts have the perfect crunch and creme ratio, with just enough of..."

"Starting with a call between two old college friends following a doughnut-filled Simpsons episode, Dun-Well Doughnuts was born. When these vegan best friends realized there were no vegan doughnut options in town, they got to work. Now with more than 200 flavors such as PB&J, cinnamon sugar, and blueberry, that have been through the building (not at the same time of course), the friends’ doughnuts have become a Williamsburg staple, and duo has expanded operations with a Lower East Side location."

"What happens when two friends get inspiration from the anniversary episode of the Simpsons and are on the search for the vegan donut options?. You get Dun-Well Donuts, and I am thankful for this TV that has provided us with laughs for decades and now the source inspiration for NYC first all vegan-donut shop."

"Walk into Mike’s Donuts at any time to see Mike and Christina, his wife, running the shop just as they did when they started nearly 30 years ago.

"My kids love the donuts from Mike's and won't go near Dunkin' Donuts anymore. The donuts are fresh and light while tasting delicious."

"Restaurants Contemporary American Soho. Like the diverse crowd, the food—from virtuoso Andrew Carmellini—is eclectic: His rollicking menu reflects our increasingly free-form eating habits with loving homages to Chinatown, the barrio, Little Italy and the full range of midtown, from its oyster bars and old chophouses to its taquerias and noodle-shop dives.
