Joe’s Doughs

Yummmmmmmy! I’m not sure which doughnut is my favorite! Peanut butter and jelly, maple bacon, s’mores, the list goes on! Joe’s Doughs are so light and airy, it’s like biting into a pillow of goodness. And I love the creativity of the flavors, they are always trying something new and delicious. I can’t wait for the shop to open this month!

Never tried or had a «fancy» doughnut before and thought they were all just the same, but in the wisdom of Clay Davis SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIT i was wrong
These were amazing! That maple bacon will smack your taste buds straight off to Canada whilst singing America The Beautiful
Great owners and awesome staff can wait to drop by and change up morning breakfast!

I have loved all of the donuts that I’ve had the opportunity to try at Joe’s. Maple Bacon and Chocolate Bacon were both on point; I was worried that they wouldn’t live up to the hype, but they totally did. The Vanilla with sprinkles was on point as well. What I think was the gluten free blueberry flavor was also quite yummy; I would not have known that it was gluten free if they hadn’t told me. I can’t wait for the storefront to open. It’s on my way to work, so that’s going to be dangerous.

I went to the soft opening and came out hard cause these donuts are sofa king good.

The doughnuts are fantastic! Maple bacon is my favorite and the vanilla with sprinkles is a close runner up. Also, Jaclyn is fantastic and such a joy to be around!!! Can’t wait for the store front to open!

Love Joe’s Doughs! We first tried them at The Daily Press and were blown away by the quality and unique flavors. I love the fact that it’s a pop up service and the crafty set up for service with the daily flavors on pedestals for help with decision making. Definitely recommend for something tasty and different from your average doughnuts.

My espresso/​cereal/​cake donut (chocolate cake, glaze and stale golden grahams) was nothing to write home about but my fiancé loved his everything glazed donut! They posted on their instagram page that the everything glazed donuts were all the rage and they are right. Plain glazed with everything seasoning you would find on an everything bagel — poppy, sesame, salt and onion. He said it was crazy but delicious! It was also much larger than mine.

Hello review #400. Who deserves such a milestone? Well, considering the fact I stalk Joe’s Doughs all over social media, I do believe they deserve this love letter. And by stalk, we’re talking like a bat ish crazy ex clicking on the profiles of everyone who liked your pictures kind of cray cray.
There is no brick and mortar store, at least not yet. So, how can you find them? Follow all their social media channels to see where they’ll be popping up and also what flavors they will have. They do a lot of Saturdays at The Daily Press.
Don’t come expecting your regular old glazed donuts. These are gourmet handmade goodness where the sky’s the limit for variety… Goat Cheese Honey Almond, Beet Red Velvet Cake, Fruity Pebble. Come on. Eat your hearts out Dunkin and Krispy Kreme.
Important note: they go quickly. Why? Because they are freaking delicious and I’m not the only person in Charlotte stalking them. Plan accordingly. Also, Joe is a super nice guy. Best of luck and I can’t wait until you guys find a storefront!
Added edit/​note: Joe messaged me on here to let me know that the storefront will be open THIS Spring at 1721 N. Davidson St. Construction starts first week of January!

Sugar. Rush.
Frosty pebbles was great but I could only manage 2 bites. Then the cinnamon toast crunch was up, it was decent not as sweet so I made it through one.

OK, I was a bit skeptical but now I am a believer!
The first time I went to the pop-​up shop at Pure Pizza on Saturday morning I wasn’t that impressed. They were about half an hour late showing up and the line was very long. I guess after waiting 45 minutes in line I was a little bit grumpy.
The next week I went to their Saturday morning gig at The Daily Press in NODA. I was glad I did! The Hot Chocolate donut topped with flamed marshmallow was great! The Eggnog French toast was amazing! Banana Cake with caramel was sublime. Panthers special donut was awesome. They are really works or art and delicious!
Can’t wait for them to have a permanent home in Noda next spring!

Joe’s doughs is great, do not get me wrong– but, it still does not come close to the flavors and dough made by Your Moms Donuts in Matthews. I don’t taste much difference eating these doughnuts than I would eating a doughnut from Krispy Kreme or Dunkin.

I have had joe’s doughnut twice now and it has been amazing both times! Today they set their pop up shop at the small market next to pure pizza central ave. it was a match made in heaven because one of my favorite local coffee shops, Not Just Coffee, had set a pop up right next to them as well. Amazing doughnuts and nitro cold brew! Can life get much better!!!

Joe’s Doughs sells their donuts on one or two Saturdays a month at The Daily Press in NoDa. Nowadays, there’s always a crowd waiting for him to set up his table. I’m afraid to provide this info as i want people to stop showing up so I can have more for myself. They usually arrives at 9:30am so you gotta show up at least 15 – 30 min early and get ready for the wait, but it’s so worth it.
The donuts are usually yeast but he will usually have one or two cake donuts. He does a good job of providing a good variety of donuts offering some standard flavors (chocolate caramel, almond glazed, s’mores) and some more adventurous ones (PB&J, Chicken and Waffles, Tiramisu). They range from $ 2-​$ 3 and aren’t overly huge which i prefer. You can order a couple to eat and you don’t feel like a fatty after wolfing them down.
Cash and credit cards are accepted. Follow them on Instagram at @joedoughs so you know when he’ll show up next as well the upcoming flavors for that day. Be sure to order to support The Daily Press by ordering their awesome coffee and teas as well!

These doughnuts are soft, fluffy and straight up delicious. I mean I don’t even like peanut butter and I murdered the peanut butter s’mores one! Best treat and super light so I don’t even feel guilty about it!!!

Great donuts. Very creative concepts and very good. I’ve been known to eat 4 donuts at a time because they are that good.

I love every donut that I have tried! Joe’s Doughs always brings the perfect amount of creativity but doesn’t overdo it. There is usually some more standard options (cinnamon sugar minis, almond glazed, chocolate glazed minis, etc.) along with a number of adventurous flavors like chicken and waffles, red velvet cookies and cream, and blueberry french toast, just to name a few. My personal favorite has been the peanut butter s’mores! You can’t go wrong with any donut you try.
Currently Joe’s Doughs has been operating as a pop up shop at The Daily Press in Noda. Cash and cards excepted. Get there early because they WILL sell out!

Joe’s Doughs currently sells their donuts Saturday’s at The Daily Press and takes special orders throughout the week. They don’t have a brick and mortar location as of now. Their donuts are a yeast donut base (however I believe they are working on some cake donuts). They are currently priced at 2 dollars/​donut. I have tried the raspberry vanilla and the chocolate coconut donut. Both were very good but the chocolate coconut cake was my favorite. These donuts are better than Krispy Kreme! Sooooo good!!! Make sure you get to the daily press at 9:30 because these donuts go fast!
