Baloo's Donuts & Coffee
1130 NW 23rd Ave, Gainesville, FL
Crema's Take
“This Gainesville gem makes every donut to order, delivering that rare experience of biting into something still warm and impossibly fresh—whether you're craving a delicate maple bacon or a pillowy lemon blueberry. The staff's genuine friendliness and generous spirit (they're known for throwing in extra donuts) paired with their skillful balance of crispy exteriors and soft, not-too-sweet centers makes this the kind of place worth taking a detour for. It's the perfect quick stop for families wanting exceptional pastries and coffee that actually taste like someone cared.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

Finally got to try their donuts - and they are amazing! It was almost melt in your mouth soft, warm, and fresh. This is a great spot for more cake/crumbly type of donuts. I had the lemon blueberry and French toast. Will definitely be back. Staff are friendly. It's more of a grab…
Donuts are hot and very good. Made to order + Made when you order. Super fresh! They are fried donuts, they will be hot. A little greasy-but crunchy-in the best way. Icing is on point, chocolate is phenomenal and so is regular glazed. I ate 6. Sooo, yeah. My pancreas hates me,…
