Delicious larga donuts

Delicious large donuts. We tried two different ones and they were delicious. They have vegetable milk. There are a few places inside to sit and tables on the terrace

Great vegan donut!

I had the raspberry coconut donut and really enjoyed it. Was pleasantly surprised to find a vegan donut by chance. They had at least six different vegan choices when I went in. Would recommend!

My favorite donuts in Dublin

We ate here several times- delicious donuts! There were different vegan options each time.
I appreciate that they didn’t give me a toothache (donuts in the US are pretty much all sugar)
They had vegan options early in the morning (so they must have read other reviews & made changes)
They tend to get busier later in the day.
Customer service was good overall.
I also wish they labeled the vegan donuts.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: Small space

Good selection of vegan doughnuts

Though this place had a good selection when I was there (early October 2023), I was a bit disappointed by the doughnut itself. It wasn't all that good. It was supposed to have raspberry filling, but there was very little of it...

No vegan donuts in stock.

Went twice and both times they said the vegan doughnuts are not ready … one time was early but the other was a few hours after opening so we went to the other doughnut shop by the water and they had tons of vegan options

Nice stop

I got the peanut butter vegan donut and a decaf americano for 7.20.
The donut was pretty good, especially with the coffee. I would try a different one next time though. They had about 5 or 6 different vegan options. I went at 9:30am on a Thursday.

Pros: 5-6 vegan donuts , Nice seating on the street

Don’t go too early

I showed up about an hour after they opened (on a Saturday morning) and they hadn’t yet made any vegan donuts.

Good selection

Had about 6 different vegan options, all looked delicious. I got the glazed with sprinkles and boyfriend got peanut butter one. Both very tasty. Pretty pricey though at almost €4 for one but Dublin in general is very expensive!

Pros: Tasty, Lots of options

Cons: Expensive

Darei 5 stelle!!

Non posso dare 5 stelle perché l'app impedisce di darle ai ristoranti o bar non totalmente vegani o vegetariani... Ma non penso di aver mai mangiato un dolce vegano buono quanto il donut che ho mangiato qui!! C'è molta scelta, io ho preso quello glassato, con la marmellata di lamponi... BUONISSIMO, morbido, dolce al punto giusto, super ripieno... Mi trasferirei a O'Connell Street solo per averlo sotto casa e mangiarlo ogni giorno!

Pros: Molte opzioni vegane, Donut buonissimo, Tanto ripieno

A good place for a treat

Lovely doughnuts but I wish they'd label the vegan flavours rather than having to ask the staff which flavours they have as they don't always have the ones that they have on their website.

Pros: A good variety of vegan doughnuts, A good variety of vegan drinks, Lots of outdoor seating

Cons: Flavours not labelled

Quality donuts

Dublin has a reputation for good vegan donuts and The Hot Donut contributes to that well deserved rep. My wife and I shared a banoffee, a ‘Boston Cream’ (aka custard) and a classic strawberry. All delicious and devoured in no time at all!

Friendly staff who clearly know what vegan is about to boot.

Pros: Solid vegan selection , Friendly and helpful staff, Ok prices

Best donuts in Dublin!

They have a lot of different vegan donuts to choose from. I tried a chocolate one and it tasted amazing! It was very soft and fluffy and not oily at all. Highly recommend!

Great Donuts

The texture of the donut was light, fluffy, and not at all oily. I thought that the donut was not overly sweet, and it really let the filling shine. I will be returning, highly recomend!

Pros: Decent amount of vegan options, Daily special flavor usually has vegan option

Cons: Outdoor seating only (sucks when it's cold out)

VEGAN DONUTS

Large selection of clearly marked vegan donuts - what’s not to love?! We tried 4 flavors - my favorite was the chocolate filled.

Sweet sins

At the Hot Donut you have a large variety of vegan donuts and desserts. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had two donuts and a eclair, which was so tasty.

Pros: vegan labeling, friendly staff

What. A. Treat.

Great doughnuts. Really good choice. Many vegan options. Between the two of us, we had a salted caramel and a cappuccino flavour (which was the Doughnut of the Day), plus a couple of coffees.

On the face of it, it may seem a bit expensive for "a doughnut", but they are really good quality.

We sat in the outdoor seating at the front of the cafe. It's really busy as it's on the main road, but nice to be able to sit back and people watch.

Also, really good coffee.

Lovely choice of donuts! Bigger/different than most other donuts places. More doughy if that makes sense but still nice.

Great donuts

Very nice place, great vegan options. We loved the Boston Creme Donut, and the coffee with oat milk. Seating was outside and a bit crowded, and we had to clean the table, but just to take the donuts to go, it would have been perfect.
