Bamboo Coffee & Donuts
2400 Lime Kiln Ln, Louisville, KY
Crema's Take
“Bamboo Coffee & Donuts is where espresso craft meets unexpectedly excellent cake donuts, with a owner named Ty who's genuinely committed to brightening people's days through thoughtful service and creative offerings you won't find elsewhere. The space feels like a place where regulars become daily fixtures and first-timers immediately understand why, whether you're stopping in for a meticulously pulled shot, a unique signature drink, or a surprisingly moist donut that's converted skeptics into devoted fans. It's the rare coffee shop that earns 4.9 stars not through hype but through the kind of consistent care—from specialty drinks to community discounts for medical staff—that makes people travel five hours just to visit.”

I come almost daily, never have I been disappointed. Not your basic “coffee & donut shop”. If you are looking for thoughtfully crafted drinks and fresh cake donuts, this is your place. I had a coffee they advertised for a short bit over a year ago and they still make it when I ask. Try a Creamy Caramel Cold Brew, yummy delicious.
Wonderful service, and food! I took 4 dozen donuts to medical staff at a local hospital and found out they do give discounts for medical. That was amazing! Also, for those with diabetes or just not wanting all the extra carbs, they do have several sugar free syrups for your coffee. Worth your time to check them out!
The owner, Ty, has it a goal to make everyone’s day better who enters his shop. You’re welcomed by friendly and warm baristas, with drink and donut options unique unlike any other cafe you may go to. The ube latte and mochi donut combo was transcendent - quite possibly the best latte I’ve ever had in my life. Bamboo Lou is such a lovely spot you simply have to visit!
I have been coming to Bamboo often for a few months now, so this review is long overdue. The cake donuts are amazing. They are very moist, which is refreshing because cake donuts at other places can be so dry. I didn’t like cake donuts until I started going here. Also not only do they have amazing donuts, but their drinks are amazing as well! I typically get a strawberry matcha, but I’m impressed with any other drink I try. My favorite was a seasonal blueberry matcha they had with cold foam. Their coffee/ lattes are good too. I don’t think you can go wrong with anything you decide to order here. I hope this local business lasts in Louisville because they deserve it. Service is good as well, the employees are extremely friendly/ helpful.
This is my favorite donut shop! Unfortunately I live 5 hours away so I only get to go here when I'm in Louisville visiting friends. I never liked cake donuts before, but these are unlike any cake donuts I've ever had: they have a light, crispy exterior with a pillowy airy interior. I don't know how else to describe it. Excellent coffee too but the donuts are almost worth the 5 hours drive :D Plus fast friendly helpful service
