The Donut Inn
1427 Military Cutoff Rd, Wilmington, NC
Crema's Take
“This Wilmington gem surprises visitors who expect just donuts and discover a full-service breakfast spot with surprisingly excellent coffee—try their hazelnut and macadamia nut iced coffee alongside those notoriously fresh, flavor-packed donuts that locals swear by. The Donut Inn strikes that rare balance between a quick grab-and-go spot and a comfortable place to linger with family, whether you're ordering a simple pastry or diving into a chicken caesar wrap and full breakfast menu. With consistently stellar reviews praising both the quality of their baked goods and the warmth of the experience, this is the kind of neighborhood spot that becomes a regular habit.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
