The Serious Eats National Doughnut Honor Roll
I don't know how Top Pot in Seattle was found and not Mighty-O donuts. Mighty-O is by far the best donuts in Seattle and the best donut I have ever had. They are made without preservatives or any of the other crap that comes in most donuts, they are organic, trans-fat free, and animal product free. All the glazes are made at the shop and with real fruit. The bakery is a neighborhood favorite including Dave Mathews who visits the shop often.

Wow.. none from Missouri? Even Alton Brown knew of the legendary spots in St. Louis.

Thank you homesicktexan. I agree and was pretty much shocked that Shipley's was not even mentioned that it is from Houston. Some of my favorite glazed doughnuts when they are fresh!!!

No Sweetwaters?? Thats my favorite shop of all time. http://www.sweetwatersdonuts.com/default2.asp?active_page_id=130
I like the peanut butter and jelly donuts, and Reese's is always a crowd pleaser.

The warm, cream-filled brioche doughnut LAMILL COFFEE (1636 Silver Lake Blvd, Los Angeles) is an LA thrill comparable to David Lynch's Mulholland Drive. Hours after you're done you're still thinking about it, still trying to figure out what it was. The doughnut does not seem quite large enough to hold all that pastry cream filling. Maybe there is magic in those specks scraped from Madagascar vanilla beans. The fact the LAMILL serves great great coffee makes this the ultimate donut experience.

If you ever get to Lexington, KY (or are traveling through, I75 and I64 meet here..) and you love good doughnuts, you have to try Spauldings Bakery at 430 W Vine St. Lexington, KY 40507 (859) 233-4567 - call first if it is during the summer, they close for two weeks for vacations and are closed on Tuesdays year-round...and there is a big line to buy doughnuts EVERY time I go - stretches around the whole inside of the bakery and sometimes you have to wait outside! I have lived a lot of places and never had doughnuts that come close to these!

Terrytown Donuts is a great neighborhood place in New Orleans. Oh, and Shipley's isn't just in Oxford, Miss.; it's been a Hattiesburg, Miss. staple for decades.

I just discovered fresh doughnut holes at the Cherry Creek Farmers Market in Denver this past weekend. I forget the name of the stand, but you'll know it as they only sell fries (with delicious aioli) and doughnuts. The doughnuts are light, greaseless and go down easy. They are the best I've tasted in Colorado.

@Kate- I hear ya! I really love Dom Bakeries in Ypsi (I'm an EMU alum). Z's donuts aren't even that good-- Zingerman's is great but sometimes people just assume their entire menu is great (which it's not)
But I was happy to see at least one of the great polish bakeries in Hamtramck.... we got Paczki from there every Fat Tuesday cause my dad worked at AAM (formally GM).
Boo hoo I miss home. And I want a donut.

Not only is Zingerman's not the best donut in Michigan, it's not even the best cake donut in Ann Arbor! (That would be Washtenaw Dairy.)

Yay for Donut Pub! I LOVE their honey dip! And, for the Maryland and Delaware peeps, I love Fractured Prune... so good!

Texas - Lone Star Bakery - The Round Rock Donut. People begin waiting at 2 am for the shop to open at 4:30 am every day. The yellowest insides ever - from organic eggs, not articficial flavoring. Mention Round Rock Donuts to anyone in Central Texas and everyone will know exactly where to go, what is needed and how good those donuts are.

You couldn't find ONE donut shop worth mentioning in the the whole state of Pennsylvania?? I'm sure the amish make a mean donut or apple fritter or something. poor form!

Good times are best reserved for the morning, that way I know they're fresh. Hot, sticky and Shipley!! Man o' man, I have eaten donuts all over, but hotn'fresh is unbeatable. The mistaken notion of machine made is overrated, gimme a hand cut, properly proofed and fried to a golden brown sugar glazed Shipley Do-Nut anyday!!!
