Crema's Take

This beloved Portland gem crafts impossibly delicious mini donuts made to order in single-flavor boxes of six, earning a devoted following for their perfect balance of warm sweetness and quality ingredients. Beyond the pastries, they nail both the quick-grab efficiency and slow-sit coziness, with specialty drinks like their pumpkin patch latte and hot apple cider that complement the donuts beautifully. It's the kind of place that becomes your automatic answer to "what should we bring?" at gatherings, with family-friendly vibes and an adorable atmosphere that keeps locals coming back year after year.

Little circles of warm, sweet heaven! Donuts are about the size of those prepackaged powdered donuts and will be one of the best donuts you’ve ever tasted! 6 donuts per box, one flavor- I recommend the maple Cute seating area upstairs, warm, cozy, and inviting. Service was very quick and the cashier was sweet. We will definitely be back!

Mini bite-sized donuts made to order. Came through this past weekend to grab a holiday box. There were only two people ahead of me, yet the wait stretched to nearly 15 minutes. Felt a bit odd waiting for donuts, but once they came out, they were super soft and fluffy. Wish they had something more exciting for holiday specials, but the one with just sugar (Grinch) and blueberry cheesecake were both solid. A bit ambitious pricing at $9 for a half-dozen minis. But Holy donut is the only other donut shop in the city, so I guess it’s nice to have an alternative for a lighter bite.

Adorable vibes and the donuts were 11/10. Stopped with our kids and tried the cookies and cream. Possibly the best donuts I’ve ever had. They are mini and you have to order in packs of 6 with one flavor. I wish they did a flight so you can try different ones without committing to a few boxes. Cost is reasonable as well!

Shoutout to Eighty 8 Donuts, our go-to for every “what do we bring?” moment at social events. We’ve been enjoying their donuts for years, and somehow they just keep getting better. Truly some of the best in town. The staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the donuts are consistently fresh and delicious. This week, I called literally 20 minutes before closing to place an order and they couldn’t have been more gracious. And please never get rid of the 25 mini donut party box. Being able to choose any five flavors is a huge reason we keep coming back. We love you, Eighty 8!

Walked in after a local store owner recommended it. Had the pumpkin patch latte in decaf and iced. Very good. Also had the hot apple cider. Shared a six pack of maple glaze donuts. They are tiny in size but big in flavor. Only disappointment would be they do not mix flavors. There is a small counter in main area with limited seating. Upstairs table and chairs and outside (weather permitting) table and chairs
