Tucked away in a parking lot at 3449 NE 72nd Ave., Annie’s Donut Shop has become a neighborhood staple for those seeking a classic, no-frills approach to the craft. With a solid 4.6 rating from nearly a thousand reviews, this family-run spot avoids the whimsical gimmicks and trendy toppings found elsewhere, focusing instead on traditional recipes. Patrons often describe the atmosphere as authentically retro, offering a straightforward experience that prioritizes quality dough and reliable, friendly service. The menu features a variety of staples, including buttermilk bars, fritters, and old-fashioned donuts, often paired with Brothers coffee.

Whether stopping by for a quick bite or a box to go, customers generally find a welcoming, unpretentious environment that feels like a true piece of the local community.
