Annie's Donut Shop

Inside Annie's Donut Shop

Annie's Donut Shop sits tucked into a parking lot on NE 72nd Ave, presenting itself as a classic, no-frills destination for donut lovers in Portland’s northeast neighborhood. This is the kind of old-school donut shop that’s built around straightforward, dependable quality rather than trendy flair. Expect a family-run feel with staff who are friendly and helpful, making it easy for regulars and newcomers alike to pick out their favorites without fuss.

The shop shines brightest in its selection of traditional and creatively flavored donuts, with highlights like the buttermilk bar, cream cheese-filled triangles, French crullers, and the rich chocolate old fashioned. There’s a sense that these donuts are the kind you eat on a weekday morning or after a long bike ride—comforting, substantial, and thoughtfully handmade. Locals seem to appreciate the softness of the dough and the careful balance of flavors, especially compared to some of Portland’s flashier options.

Inside, the space carries a practical vibe that can feel a little dated, reflecting the quieter atmosphere since past public health measures. It’s less about hanging out for hours and more about quick stops or grabbing a dozen for the family. Parking access helps make quick pickups convenient, especially for those passing through the neighborhood or dropping in on a weekend morning.

This spot is best if you’re after satisfying, familiar flavors served up with genuine warmth rather than elaborate presentation. Families, longtime Portlanders, and anyone chasing a solid morning coffee and donut combination will find what they’re looking for here. Early weekend visits often have a calm rhythm, which suits the local crowd that appreciates quality over hype.

Really phenomenal donuts. The buttermilk bar, cream cheese filled triangle (can’t remember the name), cake donut, all exceptional. The inside kinda feels like it’s been left since Covid precautions took hold and feels cold but whatever that’s just my opinion.

The BEST! Old School. Delicious. No frills, all taste. Eat that old fashioned donut like it's your job. Family friendly and family run. Nobody can touch NE PDX's best donuts.

Love this place. They offer plenty of variety. One of the few pure donut shops around. Very quick and easy. Owners/workers are no nonsense, straight to the point type people, which I enjoy. Keeps it efficient.

Wow—These donuts are phenomenal. Old school flavors, but they are so light and fluffy. Like biting into a cloud. You didn’t feel gross after eating them like a normal donut, truly delicious! Customer service was great too!!

Absolutely AMAZING I came 20-ish minutes after they opened and there were plenty of well priced options. The person working there gave me a random small dozen per my request and I’m OBSESSED the softest donuts I’ve had in the PNW. I definitely plan on coming here again and again!!!
