Crema's Take

Taylor's Donuts is a beloved Lawrence bakery where each donut is a mini flavor adventure, with regulars raving about their homemade taste and pillowy texture that justifies the trip. The cozy spot hits that sweet spot between serious craft (using fresh, from-scratch recipes) and accessible charm, making it perfect for everything from a quick morning walk pastry to a family outing, though arriving early or expecting a friendly wait is all part of the experience.

Big fluffy doughnuts, each one with a very unique flavor. I can't wait to try more the next time I'm in town! There is limited parking. There was a line when we came (moved super fast). I'd be prepared to circle the block to find parking in the lot or park around the corner and walk. Just fyi, it's worth it.

We have tried to like this a couple times now, and it’s been an expensive disappoint each time. We thought maybe it was us, then took 4 little ones with us for donuts, and three of them ate one bite and not another. Donuts have either seemed greasy or day old. Flavors were not robust, breakfast sandwich was not warm with very little taste, sure basic, kids all said water tasted like dirty dishwasher. No knock on the service there are always plenty of people working to assist you. Lacking quality for the cost.

Taylor’s Donuts makes donuts that truly taste homemade. As someone who loves baking donuts and sweets at home, I can honestly say these hit that fresh, from-scratch flavor—without needing the time or cleanup. The donuts are soft, flavorful, and not overly sweet, and they even offer seasonal varieties, which is such a fun touch. If you love classic, homemade-style donuts and want something made with care, Taylor’s is absolutely worth checking out.

I stopped by on a morning walk for some freshly baked donuts and a cup of coffee. Taylor's Donuts is a pleasant bakery in the midst of Lawrence's busy academic streets between KU's campus and the local high school. The cafe itself is bright and cheery. The donuts are creative and taste delightful. The coffee served its purpose! I definitely think about Taylor's from time to time and wished I lived much closer. Do yourself a favor and take a trip to get a few donuts and a coffee - you won't be disappointed!
