Dunkin' Donuts Report Abuse
Dunkin' Donuts offers such a huge variety of donuts and pastries alike. The donuts are amazing and they even offer some that are made without eggs for those with allergies. There is a reason that Dunkin' Donuts is the most popular donut chain in the US.

Love that soft cake like texture. It makes me wanna hide in the bathroom till everyone leaves and eat all the donuts.

While the coffee is amazing the donuts are average. Just because there's a huge variety doesn't make them better.

Krispy Kreme Report Abuse
These donuts are truly unique. They are so lightweight and soft that they almost melt in your mouth. The original ones are the best.

This donut is over sugared, over priced, and over marketed.

Should be number 1. Texture of the dough is what makes them so great!

These are tied for the best donuts I've ever had, and are by far the best chain donuts in the world.

Tim Horton's Report Abuse
This is a Canadian donut chain that has branched out into some states in the US. The donuts are always fresh, there is great variety and the coffee is also great.

I'm from North Carolina -- home of Krispy Kreme -- and Tim Horton's is the best donut chain I've seen. Like Dunkin Donuts with good donuts, or Starbucks without the pretention (and good donuts).

Worked there, coffee is the best, and the donuts are always fresh and chewey and gooey and hot, and the dough is always just perfect. GOD IM HUNGRY!

East coast guy....tried Winchells in Boulder City....by far the best donut I have ever tasted. Beats Krispy Creme and Dunkin by a mile!

Winchell's consistently offers a delicious, affordable variety of donuts and a refreshingly unpretentious approach to doing business. Plus most stores are open 24 hours.

Bouchon Bakery Report Abuse
This is a small chain with only a couple of stores, however their donuts are among the best in the country. On weekends, they have specials including donuts made with homemade jam.
