Donut World

After reading about Donut World having "authentic California style apple fritters" I knew I was going to have to make a trip to Donut World in Greensboro. The amount of available donut flavors made my brain hurt and were more than enough to bring shame to every Dunkin Donuts and Krispy Kreme in NC. There were so many Apple Fritters I didn't know what to do with myself so I ordered four... for myself :)I couldn't resist the sweet sounds of the Maple Bacon donut or the Bear Claw... so I got those too :)The Maple Bacon was surprisingly not my favorite which is odd given my lifelong devotion to all things bacon related. It was a really good donut but out of the three types of donuts I got it was my third favorite. Holding up the #2 spot was the Cali Style Traditional Bear Claw. I haven't been able to find a proper Bear Claw since leaving my home state and I was reliving many childhood memories as I had apple goo running down my mouth.The real star of the show was of course.. the Apple Fritter.Oh Apple Fritter... how I lay in bed awake remembering every one of your crunchy, chewy, apple, fried greatness bites. In California the Apple Fritters are HUGE, have chunks of apple, and are easily the best donut in the shop. On the east coast apple fritters don't even deserve to be referred to with the same name.If you're in Greensboro, near G'boro, or heading through G'Town anytime soon you need to head over to Donut World immediately. Its easily the best donut shop within hours of the Queen City.

Disappointment! I have been a customer at the 2 locations for years, but the donuts have shrunk considerably and the price is insane for the size. They also always taste old. They definitely aren't making them fresh daily. Dont know if the family that owned the one on Battleground years ago sold or what, but I have noticed a huge difference in quality and now, they have shrunk the donuts and raised the prices. Lost another store to shrinkflation and greed. RIP Donut World. Won't be back.

3.5 stars. Donuts were good but not 20 dollars worth for an assorted bunch. Little too sweet for my taste on some of the icing tops. Overall, it's good, but I've paid 7 or 8 dollars less for a better dozen. Go early, no one there at 6 am. Overall decent, but for size and price, may want to check in on other places

The donuts are really good, the beat. The only reason I didn't give five stars is because I noticed the man who made my order was not wearing gloves

Best donuts in town! 😋 And that's from a jersey girl. Whenever I need a glazed bow tie & I'm in the mood for something sweet, I always visit donut world! 🍩
