The BEST donuts you’ll ever have! My boyfriend and I have been going for years now and have never been disappointed. On top of having amazing donuts, they’re constantly creating new and delicious items. From the variety of stuffed sandwich balls to the big pig and cheese to the smoothies, Donut King has so much to offer! Hands down, the best part of this place is the wonderful owners! They go above and beyond! Honestly the best customer service you’ll ever receive! They’re so kind and so so passionate about their work! If you haven’t been to Donut King, you are seriously missing out!

Excellent donuts and wonderful owners. They noticed it was my first time visiting and brought out a fresh glazed donut for me to try. Let me tell you, it is BETTER than krispy kreme and I dont say that lightly! Do yourself a favor and stop by to grab yourself some donuts!

We went for the first time this morning. It was obvious how good our breakfast was going to be by the line out the door. Our first taste of these homemade fresh donuts just melted in our mouths! We will definitely be back!

In the mood for doughnuts? Well you will find the best darn doughnuts here. Their doughnuts are absolutely amazing!! It is like the heavens opened and shined down on this place. They also offer coffee (very good coffee), lunch options and smoothies. The owners are super super nice and the vibe of the shop is so calming. Supporting local businesses is a good thing. Especially when there is some serious talent behind the business you are supporting. They are only open until 2:00 and they are open every day except Monday.Seriously, are you on your way there yet? You should be! 😁😉🍩

What an amazing experience that I just had at Donut King. This was my first time and DEFINITELY not my last time. I’ll start off by saying that I have never been a fan of donuts but this restaurant has just changed that for me. These are the first donuts that simply melt in your mouth and the perfect amount of sweetness. I also tried a Brisket sandwich and it was incredibly flavorful. I recommend asking for the ghost pepper sauce on the side. This is truly was one of the best places that I’ve had food in Covington. The service from the staff was unmatched and I felt like I’d known them for years! Everyone was extremely knowledgeable and made great recommendations for my family members. You won’t regret trying this place out!

I recently purchased some very reasonably priced donuts and pastries here. I returned for more. Actually, Ive been back many times. The donuts and pastries are EXCELLENT! Next time I will get my usual order as well as some of the other items they have. I highly recommend Donut King, but, I should warn everyone, their food is addictive.

This place is the real deal! The donuts are always fresh and their breakfast sandwiches are to die for. My family likes the bacon egg and cheese, brisket, and sausage egg and cheese. We haven’t tried the rest of them yet but we haven’t been disappointed in anything we’ve order. The owners are so friendly! If you haven’t tried this place yet just know you’re missing out!

Absolutely amazing donuts . I didn’t think a donut could get any better until I came here. I was going to give 4 stars because honestly I feel like their glazes are to sweet but non the less it’s still a 5 star place. I recommend going here .

Baby let me just say Donut King is not here to play!!! They have mastered the donut so tell a friend to tell a friend and treat yourself. They delivered a custom order for my Baby Shower which was exactly what i wanted. The ordering process was simple and I was assured that my order would be ready for my shower. The donuts were fresh and decorated beautifully. Must try Carmel Apple, Oreo, Maple PecanDonut king thank you

I love their pig-n-a-blanket. And I love their donuts. I only wish their creme filled donuts had more creme. I had been wanting a Krispy Kreme creme filled donut for a year now. I’ve been stuck in bed unable to walk so every time someone stopped to get me one the order got messed up. My husband stopped at donut king and brought me 2 my excitement turned to disappointed when I bit into the donut and that’s all I got, glazed donut. There wasn’t maybe a 1/2 to a teaspoon of filling. Had I wanted a glazed donut that’s what we would’ve bought. We buy creme filled because we want to bite into both creme and donut at the same time. I highly recommend everything there except the “filled” donuts.

Well I grew up in Texas and me and my kids love kolaches and their pigs in a blanket are really close to a kolaches and they were amazing The cajun one was my favorite the sausage egg and cheese one I had I didnt like but it still tasted good I will definitely be back for more. Oh and my kids loved the donuts.

Let me tell y’all something.....These doughnuts are absolutely delicious! I mean just amazing! I prefer them over Krispy Kreme. The variety is beyond belief. I had the turkey filled and it was omg! The Reese’s chips and the glazed were to die for. I will definitely be making this a regular thing. And the customer service is A1. I also got the brisket sandwich. I’m saving it for later but really excited about it. I was hungry and wanted something good and sweet. Best decision!

Hands down the best decision my husband and I had for our wedding day was choosing Donut King to make our wedding donuts. We decided to forgo the traditional wedding cake and this was a slam dunk! Our parents managed to save a couple for us because they were GONE by the end of the night. Diana was a peach to work with and the donuts were out of this world delicious! Thank you so much for making such an integral part of our day spectacular!

I stopped in today to see if they had any blueberry cake donuts...they had one!! Yayy!! I must say I travel to a lot of places all over the country and I will be back to this shop.

I am SO glad I stopped by Donut King today! I went in not knowing what they had, but the lady working was extremely helpful! She made a few suggestions, for lunch and for something sweet, and I was not let down at all! I left with a Bourbon Chkn sandwich, a Beef AuJou(sp) sandwich, a Crutter, and a Chocolate iced donut, and I give them 5 stars!! Amazing customer service, AND absolutely delicious food!!

The first thing that caught out attention about this magical place was the aromas in the air. From across the parking lot, my senses were filled with baked goodness. We walked in and were greeted with warmth, smiles, kindess, and a belly that rumpled eager to dive in. The owner gave us a glazed donut and that hooked us! Im pretty sure we bought 6 different kinds and ALL WERE AMAZING!!! On top of having top quality donuts, their smoothies are REAL and delicious! I highly recommend this place to everyone!!!

So my first time here leaving now. Great first experience lady at front very nice outspoken and let me know everything they have to offer. Even gave me a free glaze donut to try which was great. So i got another one and 2 ham n cheese stuffers. Only thing is the ham and cheese stuffers dough on inside wasnt cooked completely so was doughy so i wasnt fond of those because of that. But shake was ok it was definitely different. I think ill try a different one next time. Its called a green wheeler. You wouldnt even know veges where in it. I got protein in mine as well.Will definitely be back to try more stuff. Very pleasant customer service , Cynthia.

Lots of choices and very delicious. I love that they fill the donuts to order. They are so fresh that way, also it allows creativity(how about raspberry and custard mixed, or vanilla and chocolate?)The owners and bankers are so friendly and inviting. It is great fun just going into the place. I just wish they were open late because I cant make it there before work and they are closed when I get off :( After all donuts are dessert too! But I love coming in on weekends.

Warm and personable owner-operators who made the sublime treat of a perfect cup of coffee and fresh, hot glazed donut the highlight of my day. The best Ive had in years. I understand why people drive from the other side of Atlanta for a dozen or more! I am sure they dont leave without that fantastic coffee. Dont bother with those chain-owned spots when you can have the real-deal and buy local as well. I will definitely be back!

Went in at 11am. They make their fresh donuts at 6am and again at 8am. The man there was super friendly and professional. They only sell individual donuts and 12ct dozens. The customers told me they loved it there too. They have 💯% juice (from a fresh fruit puree) smoothies. I got the orange passion fruit smoothie and love it! He gave us coupons for a free regular donut next time. By the way, they fry their own donuts! Service is BETTER than a Krispy creme and the donut king donuts taste great :) Its our local donut place! Eat here! 🍩

The customer service is as great as the donuts! This is, by far, my most favorite place to grab breakfast or just hang out. I feel welcomed as soon as I walk through the door. I even walked in after they had closed and the owner, Mike, greeted me with the biggest smile and helped me figure out which creative donut I was going to get! I do not know of another place in Covington that makes every experience feel personable, fun. and welcoming like Donut King does. Wish there were more stars for me to give these guys!!

Donut king is fabulous, their donuts are simply amazing even when they arent hot. The employees here are just as sweet as their donuts 🍩, I highly recommend them for anyone that wants to order one donut or a dozen donuts. They also have a great amount of indoor and outdoor seating along with nice selection of music. Not only do they have donuts but they have piggies in a blanket. With there being so many options how could you say no to this place?

The address isn’t listed correctly, but it’s by the Food Depot 2300 Salem Rd SE, Covington, GA 30016. I was expecting to go to the Dunkin drive thru when I was faced with “we don’t have speciality donuts, just regular glazed”. I was so shocked, and like okay where else can I get donuts in Covington (we are new to the area), so I found Donut King on google. Literally the BEST donuts we have ever had!!! The owners are so nice, even if you’re in your pajamas lol. They helped me find the location, the lobby was clean, their customer service is awesome, and you could totally see that they know their community customers. We are definitely fans, and will be getting our donuts here from on!!

As a first timer I was let down by the service. Two women were ahead of me and didnt know what they wanted. The clerk asked if they had been there before. One yes, the other no. The clerk went the back. The women said I could go ahead of them. I said I also didnt know what I wanted. The clerk brought out fresh donuts for them to try.For the price, the donuts were fine, but service left more to be desired. None of the other patrons in line were offered a donut. I wasnt asked if I had been there before or another framing that would bump up service. Would have purchased more, but left with a bad taste in my mouth.

AMAZEBALLS Donuts and Lunch Sandwiches for a great price!Heres a little ditty, bout Mike and Diane. Two Donut Kings, changin the heartland.We stopped here on a whim during a pit stop between Atlanta and Augusta. Who knew????Mike dreams up some amazing things and Diane turns those mad ravings into the most delicious bites we never thought we would find in Georgia.Lets talk Donuts. Yes, the diner-style hand-crafted DONUT (no doughnuts allowed):Classic plain glazed. The litmus test for all donut shops anywhere. These celestial pillows are the perfect blend of outer donut crust, the airy, moist and soft innards covered with a simple glaze that is juuuuuust enough sugary-vanilla sweet to hit the spot without making your tongue hurt from sugar overload. These light, airy and sensuous mouthfuls are everything Krispy Kreme promises to be... but never delivers.Lets talk smoothies. Yep, buy your kid a donut and get yourself a healthy treat at the same time:The Green Wheeler. Nuff Said. This is a smoothie built from the healthiest, environmentally-responsiblist, socially-awarest, greenest ingredients that form the basis of all modern torture cults like Keto Diet, Crossfit, and Whole30. Somehow, Mike has turned these taste-killing ingredients into the most beige-looking non-impressive cringe-inducing pucker-your-lips-and-make-yourself-try-a-sip experience of a lifetime. Once you work up the courage to try a drink that contains the taste equivalent of sawdust, arsenic and old lace...AMBROSIA. Pure, tasty, liquid gold. You will LITERALLY put the drink down, stare at it with a comically confused look on your face (imagine, in a comic book, you would have a giant, flashing question mark floating over your head). Then, you will take another sip because it just cant be true.True story: after my confirmation sip, I let the taste linger on the back of my tongue and tried to pick out each taste profile... and then my wife punched me in the arm because I inadvertently drank the rest of the 10-oz smoothie. I never even realized I was still drinking it.Lets talk sammiches. Who gets a beef au jus sammich at a donut shop? Me. Every time I drive by. Mike was laughing his butt off as my wife beat me in public for drinking the smoothie. So he offered to let us taste an au jus sammich. Despite our gastric protestations, he entreated us with the graciousness of a Michelin Star chef feeding a 4-year-old who only wants chicken nuggets. So, we accepted. A sammich. From a donut king.BOOM. This thing was the BEST roast beef sandwich my wife or I have ever had. The meat was perfectly flavored, moist, tender and beefy. The jus was beefy and flavorful without being salty (an impossible feat), with a touch of melty cheese on a toasted sesame bun. You need no condiments. You need no extras. It was juicy, beefy, tender, with a slight crunch from the bun, gooey notes of cheese and the jus tying every flavor into a soul-comforting bite that fills up every crack in the heart going all the way back to your parents divorce and the day you figured out the Tooth Fairy gave everyone different money because it was really your mom waiting up until 2:31am and you finally were deep enough asleep to swap your tiny chompers for the change she had in her purse.So... to sum up: the Donut King is pretty good. Seriously. My wife and I have visited and eaten in 42 of the 50 states, more than 20 countries, and we STOPPED trying to find better donuts than the Korean donut shops in central Texas. If youve been, you KNOW what we are talking about. This place is THAT good.We are going back... soon. You should try it... soon. The King Lives!!!!!!!!!!!
