Reception
[edit | edit source]In 2016, Matthew Korfhage of Willamette Week wrote, "If they're warm, the cake doughnuts here destroy all others in the city."[12] Michael Russell ranked Delicious Donuts first in The Oregonian's 2018 overview of Portland's best doughnut shops.[6] Ann Smith and Allison Symonds included the business in an overview of the city's best doughnuts in the book 100 Things to Do in Portland, Oregon Before You Die.[13] Time Out Portland included Delicious Donuts in a 2019 list of the city's twelve best doughnuts.[4] David Landsel selected Delicious Donuts for Oregon in Food & Wine's 2021 list of the best doughnuts in each U.S. state. He wrote:
Their cinnamon roll doughnuts, crunchy fritters, and apple-filled bear claws are famously good, the blueberry cake is like some gorgeous, deep-fried muffin, but don't get too comfortable, because unless you time it right, you'll typically take what you can get. Good news, however — you'll be totally fine with this because it's all good.[14]
The shop was included in Eater Portland's 2021 list of seventeen restaurants for "amazing" breakfast sandwiches,[1] 2023 list of recommended eateries near the Moda Center and Oregon Convention Center,[15] and 2024 list of the city's "most delicious" doughnuts.[2] The Travel Channel has also included the business in an overview of five "delicious" doughnut shops in Portland.[3]
