Was staying at a hotel nearby so I made sure to stop at Top Pot Doughnuts for half a dozen donuts. Each flavor was delicious and even held a day. The shop was cute and sold swag. I didnt try their coffee but I would absolutely recommend any of their raised donuts. The powdered cake donut was delicious as well!

Fast service. Great price. Maple bar had good chew. I wish there was a bit less glaze but overall would come back.

Doughnuts are spectacular as are the drinks. The old fashioned doughnuts are more cake like than I am used to (in comparison to say, federal doughnuts in Philadelphia whos old fashioned doughnuts are more airy). Nevertheless, these are some of the best doughnuts I have ever had, especially the raised glazed yeasted doughnut. Best glazed doughnut I have ever had. Couple it with a cortado and you are bound to start your day off right. Also, the space and ambiance is great!

Everything you can want in a donut! Coming from a donutholic, these donuts were amazing! The texture was soft and chewy, and there was a good amount of filling in the center, which is extremely important! If you are visiting the area, be sure to stop in. 🤤

The raspberry glazed donut is a treat.The maple bar is fantastic, bountiful in size.The apple fritter has plenty of apples and cinnamon. It wasnt heavy. Every bite was inviting.I really enjoyed the service and thought the half dozen, because the donuts are so big, was the right choice for our family of three.I ate half of my donuts, and went back the next to finish them... and they were equally as enjoyable. Thats quality..

I lived these donuts! I’m not even a big fan of donuts but had to try while in the PNW. My favorite was the old fashioned one.Went in at 8am on a Friday, not too busy and lots of fresh donuts.Place is clean, plenty of space, restrooms, indoor and outdoor seating and coffee was ok (not great) but worth the visit.

THE BEST DONUTS weve ever had! First, the staff was super nice and very patient for us first time visitors and the donuts were the best. Not greasy or too doughy at all! The Earl Grey (London Fog) tea was so cozy in a cold day.

Got the maple donut and coffee.. it was good and the inside had a Book store feel to it.. I definitely recommend checking out

I visit this place every day after work and the staff are very friendly and when you enter.it feels like home.

This is a real treat. Come here, youll eat good donuts. 🍩

Great doughnuts, tasty coffee. The chocolate cake doughnut with raspberry glaze is sublimely delicious.

I tried their iced vanilla latte with oat milk, as well as their iced matcha latte with oat milk. The vanilla latte was average (I probably wouldnt get it again), but their matcha was SO GOOD. Its typically pretty hard for me to find places that make good matcha (I like my matcha lattes to be smooth and on the sweeter side), so this find definitely made my day. I also tried their pumpkin old fashioned doughnut, which was so yummy and wonderfully sweet. The interior was cute and decked out with lots of Halloween decorations, which always makes my heart happy. Overall, great vibes, doughnuts, and matcha!!

Great donuts and a killer cold brew. Had their seasonal blueberry fritter and it was excellent! Will definitely return again!

It could be easily 4 or 5 stars just for their donuts they are good. Unfortunately the service is the exact opposite, the staff working here have no interest whatsoever in doing anything. They are extremely rude, have no patience to answer any questions. I would love to be back only if the staff is trained or is changed

If Top Pot shipped across the country, I would die happy.These were hands down the best doughnuts we had when visiting at Seattle. We stayed the Sound Hotel so it was a close walk over.I dont think Ill be able to describe the dough in enough detail to do it justice, but... they were soft but still had some chew. The fillings were absolutely spot on. I was so so happy we visited. I just wish it had been before our last day in town!

Famous Seattle doughnuts and great coffee!

Pretty standard donut/coffee joint. Friends from the Seattle area recommended these donuts to us with rave reviews. We are from Michigan and lets just say these were pretty standard donuts compared to where were from, which is definitely okay but we were excepting amazing based on our friends descriptions.

I used to like going here. Maybe they’ll open the upstairs again someday; it was a nice place to hang out. The donuts are good, but not worth going out of my way to just grab and go. Coffee is fine.

The Bavarian yeasted donut was great. Their old fashion Cinnamon sugar was fine but was cold so did not taste as fresh. Hot chocolate was not very good though.

Lovely atmosphere, lovely building, friendly staff, good place to have a sip and a gnosh.

Best doughnut. I have ever had. Traveling... with most of them back to California. Staff was very friendly and put the box in a large bag to make carrying them easier. Worth the walk from my hotel.

Just normal donuts. Not especially delicious. Their donuts taste really greasy. I can still feel the oil after finishing the donuts.

Definitely worth 4.5 stars if it is 100% functional.

Their donuts are so good!!! The vibe feels like a library. So warm and inviting. Only wish one was available in Dallas this nice.

Best Bavarian cream doughnut that I have had. I traveled from the Midwest and this doughnut felt so heavy, but the fresh dense yeasty almost chewy texture was so satisfying. The cream was great and not over sweet and the chocolate icing on top good quality. Went great with the house coffee.

I like maple bar donut in this place. Normally it has more variety but during Covid-19, they reduced the number of varieties. Also it is a good place to study/work but seating is not allowed for pandemic.

An amazing donut experience. They keep all of their donuts fresh so you know you are going to get a freshly made donut anytime of the day. Their beverage menu is also outstanding. I got an ovaltine latte with a Bavarian cream and toasted maple donut - all were incredibly delicious and would highly recommend!

The donut, coffee and the vibe of the place were all very good

Raspberry glaze and apple fritter had the most potential but were not warm/fresh. Drip coffee was nothing to write home about. Maybe get there when they first open if you’re going to give it a shot. The interior is neat — like a two story library with shelves of books from floor to ceiling.

My Evergreens Salad Team LOVES YOU!

Well made donuts. They have the classic donut shop feel, but still gourmet.

Easily the best donuts in town. The variety, flavor, texture are great! No excess goofy flavors or anything insanely extra like some other popular places. Proud to have this in my hometown!

It is a peaceful place to chill and grab some delicious donuts. Nice staff. Donuts were AMAZING, hot coco was ok. It tasted too watery for me

For nearly two years, I worked in Issaquah, lived in Seattle. On Saturday morning, I would get up early and drive to your store in Capital Hill and buy a dozen donuts to bring into work; bought 3 old fashioned just for myself. This was 2008-2010. I did this every Saturday morning; it was a ritual.I have not lived in Seattle for 10 years. Occasionally I would visit and Top Pot was always a first stop for every visit. I have returned to Seattle, arrived two weeks ago today and now live in the Columbia City neighborhood. This morning I woke up at 5am and waited to call your flagship store at 6am to be sure I could go in for a take out order; google just says delivery. The nice person answered the phone and assured me I could come in for an order. Risking life and limb, not being used to the traffic and speed of drivers on I5, I drove over. I got 1/2 a dozen old fashioned, 2 glazed, 2 chocolate, and 2 maple.Your donuts have brought me so much joy over the years; today was no exception. I am so happy to see how much your company has grown and the quality remains outstanding. Thank you for making my day today and for many years.

The doughnuts from this place were so comforting!

One of the best places to grab a donut in town. The flagship Top Pot store is a great spot to get a coffee and one of their delicious donuts or the famous apple fritter and relax in the spacious seating upstairs or on the main floor. There are several staple donuts that are always available, but keep any eye out for unique special occasion and seasonal sweets that pop up from time to time. Don’t forget to pick up a coffee card if you’re planning to start visiting regularly. 🍩🍩🍩☕️

Got 3 different old fashioned donuts and they were delicious, ate them all in one day. Im not a coffee person, but I did try their oat milk latte and it was great.

Great coffee and donuts! Always our favorite stop while in Seattle

Apple fritter was delish!

This place is a Seattle gem. Books, great doughnuts, and strong coffee are what we need in the morning.

Get the seasonal pumpkin one! Tasty, very tasty.

I was told this is the best donut shop in Seattle. My friend and I were deeply disappointed after trying. We first went to the location by Kerry park but they ran out of donuts so we then proceeded to try the one on 5th. Extremely disappointed, very dry abs no flavor. We did not try the drinks so can’t speak on that, but I will not be coming back.

Possibly my newest favorite coffee shop in Seattle. Fair prices for the donuts and the coffee and both taste delicious!Great seating upstairs for getting work done too. Highly recommend!

Stayed at an Airbnb next door so this place was dangerous. The doughnuts were extremely fresh with not too sweet icing and the coffee was very solid. The decor in their place makes it feel like a library of dreams and I love the vibe they have going.

Shockingly good donuts, and the coffee surpassed Starbucks by far.

Best donuts north of Despi Delite Filipino bakery.

Best doughnuts ever. Everyone needs to go here

Good donuts and a seating area lined with bookshelves. I wait every year for the seasonal blueberry fritter.

Umm not exaggerating, probably the best donuts Ive ever had. The latte was on point too. The atmosphere is welcoming, feels like a library cafe, the staff was kind. Ill be back indefinitely.

The doughnuts were delicious. I also got the ovaltine latte, simple but yummy. A must visit if youre in the downtown area.

Ok tasty donuts, historical place. But its just donuts! Chocolate sand castle in my opinion is the best one. good service and coffee

Heavy, doughy, glutinous - sits in the stomach like stones. I really wanted to like these, and bought a half dozen assorted but two bites into four different donuts, this was a mistake. Perhaps I can find a homeless person to give them to, but I don’t need the indigestion this thing wants to give me. Pass, much rather have Krispy Kreme. Would’ve given one star but give an extra star for the staff who are very nice. It’s not their fault the recipes are off.

Best doughnuts in Seattle! Very friendly service, as always!

Best donut ive had in ages! Try the Bavarian cream! The chocolate doesnt have that annoying chemical after taste all the inferior places use these days. The wife loved her rasberry donut. Wasnt wild about the breakfast pie. Cool atmoshpere, bi-level seating with an awesome view.

Nice and friendly coffee shop. I really liked the library feeling you get the minute you come in. The coffee was nice and flavorful, Seattle style. There are people sitting here and working as the place is rather quiet. I would definitely come back here again.

Love their maple bar donuts. The seating on the second floor is spacious and cozy.

Apple fritters and glazed raspberry donuts are the best. Ohh..I like caramel donut too.. gosh.. did I miss old fashioned.. I am hungry now.. 😮

What a sweet and wonderful treat a delicious haven from the concrete jungle

Great little sweet spot with coffee. Cozy environment, Id definitely bring a laptop here for work/study before bringing a book.

A definite must if youre exploring downtown. Spacious, clean and courteous staff. Donuts and good old drip coffee were perfect. Family is picky about donuts. These were not too dense and not greasy. Perfect.

They close at 3pm, just drove by is 2:33pm and the doors are locked. Horrible

An hour and a half before they closed and the donut shop was basically out of donuts… the one we got was subpar. My fog tea was underwhelming. Pretty place but fell short in everything else. ☹

Really delicious doughnuts served up in a classy but modern small coffee bar style environment in the heart of Seattles downtown. Reasonably priced doughnuts in a counter serve joint with friendly staff. Great place to get some work done upstairs with lots of seating and a pretty quiet ambiance. The cinnamon sugar doughnut was really delicious but the maple glazed old fashioned was great if a little bit too sweet for my tastes.

If you’re going to charge $3 a donut, you should put a decent amount of filling in it. I ate 3/4 of a lemon filled without tasting the lemon.

Right in the heart of downtown, this is one of the places you have to try if you enjoy donuts.It definitely is attracting a lot of people (from in and out of town) and the prices are in the higher end of what you can expect for donuts but it is worthwhile as the yeast treats are made fresh daily and are of great quality.Try the classic raised yeast ring or one of the seasonal donuts available and you will be in for a treat.As for drinks, give a try to the ovaltine drink. Quite delicious and something you will not find everywhere.The place itself is welcoming and well lit with friendly employees, who will get you your order in a timely fashion.If in Seattle and looking for donuts, this is a must for you.

Fun and Tasty and nice employees

Always fresh and delicious, very nice people

A Seattle favourite, always wanted to try them, happened to find them hungry, on my way back from work. Jumped in, picked up a couple & sat there & savoured with colleagues. Not a bad doughnut, but not a great one either. The chocolate Cinnamon was bang on, excellent balance, though would have loved a little more Choco. The Pumpkin Spice was relatively decent, good, not great.

Love it!!! We live nearby and will be back 🙌

Happened to be walking by and stopped in to look at this restaurant because it has really cool decor. I had a breakfast sandwich and it was really good. Lumberjack breakfast.

Not bad I guess, $30 for 2 small coffees and 4 donuts. They do not have Almond milk which was a big let down being that I cant have Soy or whole milk. I think the price you pay is for the hype of this store. In reality its just an over priced coffee and donut shop.

Doughnuts are very good. Do not get “sproda”. Taste is absolutely disgusting

Ovaltine latte and raspberry donut were great. The “Sproda” (espresso soda) was absolutely foul tho

In short, EXCELLENT donuts. I always say, if you can make a good glazed donut, you know everything else is gonna be good! Nothing disappointed!

Its a bit spending but its great Obama ate here

I love this location. Staff is friendly, donuts and fresh and delicious, and they are fantastic about their social distancing practices. The coffee is good, and I come here if I want semi-fancy-not-pretentious hot drinks with great donuts! They have a variety of cake ones, but I LOVED raised and/or filled - and they are excellent at both. I HIGHLY reccomend a cinnamon twist. Looks simple, the taste and texture are perfection.

Staying in a hotel nearby and heard about the donuts here. Decided to give them a try and I got the Chocolate Old Fashioed which was my favorite. It was the perfect texture and was just the right amount of sweet. Next I got the Pink Rainbow and it was alright. I dont like cake donuts anyways, so this wasnt for me. The icing was too sweet as well. Lastly I got the Maple Bacon which was quite good as well. The maple and bacon flavors really compliment each other. Overall I was satisfied.

Best Boston cream donut I’ve had in my life!!!

This is the first donut place recommended to me that has stood up to the hype, so fresh!

Coming from Montana these doughnuts were freaking amazing!!! I absolutely loved them!! Had the best latte too❤ Highly recommend!!!!

I’m a huge doughnut person, and this place is always a must stop when we visit Seattle!Excellent doughnuts. Nice people. Great coffee! And it’s a cute little place to stop and read the paper or just visit. I recommend this place to everyone. Love it, love it.

Love their donuts, coffee is pretty good as well, but their service at this location is a little unfriendly feeling compared to their other locations.

The staff at this location is always so friendly, and their cold brew and unique doughnut flavors are to die for!

My wife and I came here. Ordered a dozen doughnuts. All were delicious. Really loved the apple fritter, pershing (cinnamon roll), and glazed raised ring. The glazed twist and old fashioned were really good as well. Seems to me you cant miss at this place. If I lived in Seattle, I would come here every cheat day. Highly recommended and I wouldnt hesitate to return.

Took my wife and kids there last weekend and while I was ordering my wife pointed out 3 giant flys crawling between the donuts. Keep y’all’s door closed or something. Definitely won’t be back to try.

Marvelous doughnut shop. Great coffee, decor and staff.

Excellent doughnuts at reasonable prices. And they can spell the word doughnut. Bonus

Bar none the most entitled bratty service! Girl with the teal hair needs to find a new job out of public service! I don’t care how good the food is, all goes away when the staff is bad! Worst place to visit

Excellent service, friendly staff and great donuts. Every type of coffee you could want. Clean.

Top notch doughnuts at Top Pot doughnuts! I wasnt a fan of the coffee, but it might be a Seattle thing: Many of the coffee shops had similar tasting coffee that I didnt enjoy.

Nice selection of Dougnuts and nice ambience.Friendly customer service.

Great 2 floor location with plenty of variety. Parking is easy and staff is very friendly

Donut and coffee are great, and they have many kinds of donuts and always change the flavor. Best ask recommend for seasonal flavor. The decoration here is awesome, best place to spend whole afternoon. It is located in Belltown, 15 mins walk from Pike Place Market.

An institution in Seattle, with a great story behind this doughnut shop. Delicious, varied selection and tasty coffee drinks. We enjoyed the atmosphere and vibe going on in this cool house. You wont be disappointed. For more information, check their website. Convenient location, just a few blocks away from the Westlake Center below the monorai track.l

Absolutely delicious! One of the best donuts I’ve ever had. This is a must do when you visit Seattle.

Stopped in the morning before our flight to bring home some doughnuts. We got a variety (cant remember all of them), but there was this lemon one we had that was really good. I normally am not a huge fan of doughnuts because theyre too sweet, but thats not the case at Top Pot. It was the right amount of sugar. Plus, they still tasted pretty fresh the next day!

Cool area/location. good cake donuts.

Doughnuts are amazing but SO filling. Not your typical airy ones, these are thick and real and you will want to eat 10 but will only be able to stomach one or 2.so so good. the spot itself has tons of sitting room and is very well kept.

The rumors are true ... amazing donuts!!! Great collection of books & very LGBTQ friendly.

From Japan:)I visited around eight on Friday, but there is a waiting line. Very sweet and tasty doughnuts!
