On my way to Boston I had to take a short detour to PV Donuts. I used to go years ago when I stayed in providence. This place is memorable. The store is huge with cute tables to sit at. The only problem here is that they have a huge selection of donuts making the choices difficult! Since I was only getting donuts for 2 I chose 4 donuts. The young lady behind the counter was so sweet. She was patient and explained the fillings to me. I chose milk chocolate peanut butter, lemon butter cake, coffee crumb cheese cake and vegan orange cranberry. The lemon was my favorite with the lemon filling. The coffee crumb cake was unique with the creamy cheesecake filling, the chocolate PB was rich but not too sweet. The least favorite was the vegan cranberry. I would have liked less cranberry filling it the orange flavoring was a nice offset. I may have to stop in again on my way home.

The best place to get donuts around Providence. They always have an exciting new batch of donuts monthly. The donuts are big and airy. Such a perfect sweet to fill your craving. Feels wrong not to get two different flavors to try. My go to is the Oreo or coffee flavored. Very packed in the morning time.

Great experience at PVDonuts. Arrived at 2:30 when they closed at 3pm. They were apologetic that they didn't have a better selection before closing but we totally understood. We got a dozen donuts to share with our group and they were delicious. The Nutella Brioche was the favorite amongst our group. Definitely a 5 star experience. No espresso! Only drip and cold brew coffee. We'll be back!

As soon as you walk in, you're greeted with the smell of incredible donuts!! Once you get to the front of the line you'll see so many different flavors to choose from, not only are they beautifully made but there's also massive. I got the carrot cake donut. Not only was moist, but the carrot cake flavor really came through. It was nice to see complementary water available and enough setting inside and outside.

I wanted to pick up a few sweet treats to surprise someone special and PVDonuts was the perfect choice. The donuts are all priced differently depending on their type, but in total, I paid ~$25 for 6 donuts. Twinkie-- this was the fan favorite! It's a brioche donut filled with a vanilla pastry cream, with the top kissed by vanilla icing and crushed vanilla cake. It's finished off with a swirl of buttercream. Everyone loved how pillowy it was and couldn't get enough of the vanilla cream. Coffee Milk-- this one seemed similar to the twinkie, but without the filling. It was a brioche donut, with a coffee glaze. Earl grey cruller--this was my personal favorite. Crullers hold a special place in my heart because of their ridges. More ridges = more texture for all of that glazed icing to cling to. Their earl grey was icing was very fragrant! We also picked up the Honey Cruller, the, Chocolate sprinkle and the Jelly stick!

This was my first time visiting the new location. It's in a great spot and has a very welcoming atmosphere. As always, the donuts were fantastic. I had the Cookie Dough donut for the first time and it might be the best one I've ever had from PVDonuts. The coffee milk donut never disappoints either. My cold brew was made perfectly. I normally take it with Almond Milk but had to use Oat Milk instead and didn't notice the difference. Definitely check out the new location when you're in the area... or in need of a donut fix!

I spend a lot of time thinking about food and seeking out new, exciting eating experiences but I have a special passion for donuts (see my profile picture). From Voodoo in Portland to Five Daughters in Nashville to Donut Vault in Chicago, I have had the joy of trying many incredible donuts over the years. So I am not exaggerating when I say PVD is easily the finest donut shop in New England and among the best in the country. They not only have a range of donut types (cake, raised, fritters, gluten-free, etc) but a wide selection of really fantastic and unique flavors that rotate on monthly cycle. Some of the many standouts that come to mind are cosmic brownie, strawberry milkshake, blueberry poptart and zebra cake. I literally make an hour drive down from Boston just to go to PVD at least every few months and cannot recommend this place highly enough!

A new month means a new menu at PVDonuts. After looking at the menu, I knew I wanted to try the Lucky Charms Twist for $4.25 and Earl Gray Cruller for $3.65. I love Lucky Charms cereal and Earl Gray tea. I came back to the store on a Wednesday rainy morning. I quickly took a look at the display case, but I knew which items I wanted. The Lucky Charms Twist is a yeasted twist topped vanilla glaze and lucky charms cereal. The twist was a big portion and the dough was so soft. The lucky charms cereal on top added a some crunch to the twist, but I felt like the twist didn't really need it. I mentioned in my previous review that crullers are my all time favorite and the Earl Gray Cruller just took it to a whole other level. The Earl Gray Cruller is a culler topped with earl gray glaze. It was packed with earl gray flavor and this might be my all time favorite cruller.

I've been wanting to check this place out after seeing it on social media; now I get the hype. They opened in 2016 and brought brioche style donuts to New England. The donuts are handmade fresh daily and they have a variety of flavors and unique combos to choose from. They have crullers, fritters, cake, filled brioche, old fashioned, and many more options. Every month they have different flavors and of course, different seasons comes with different offerings. They also have coffee from various vendors. The donuts are made by hand daily and with so many unique flavors to try. The brioche donut was huge, airy, and light; not too sweet which complements the various sweeter toppings. I had their maple bacon donut and that was so so so GOOD; the bacon was crispy/salty and the maple frosting was just the right amount of sweet and went well the airy brioche, I love the sweet and savory flavor. The service was great too, quick and friendly. There were seating inside and outside. The location is great on Wickenden Street with plenty of on-street parking; although, on weekends it may be tougher to find closer parking. I can't wait to go back and try out more of their donuts!
