Homer Simpson once asked: “Donuts. Is there anything they can’t do?”
Obviously it was rhetorical.
Truth be told NYC, there’s never a bad time for donut delivery. It’s one of those rare foods that adds value to any situation: Someone’s birthday at the office? Donuts. Your significant other’s mad at you? Donuts. Subway delays made you late to the meeting? Donuts. Shoebox apartment won’t fit the couch you ordered? Donuts. Whatever the time or occasion, Postmates is at your service to make sure you get your glazed or frosted or cream-filled fix faster than you can take the 6 train from Soho to Midtown. And just in case you’re hung up on which New York City donut spot to postmate from, we’ve curated a list of NYC’s finest donut delivery options:
Underwest Donuts
Eating Underwest Donuts is nothing short of a melt-in-your-mouth experience. See for yourself, and indulge in one of their signature Carwash Donuts — a vanilla lavender-infused cake donut — inspired by their first location on the West Side Highway, or lose yourself in a life-changing Maple Waffle donut or S’MORES donut.
Doughnut Plant
Doughnut Plant is recognized as a New York institution, and for good reason — the fresh, flavorful selection never disappoints. Whether you go circular, square, or go for some bite-size Doughseeds, flavors like Creme Brulee, Peanut Butter and Banana Cream, and Hazelnut Chocolate are going to rock your world.
Holey Cream
If there was ever a donut shop that represented the American food dream, Holey Cream would be it. Not only can you order a box of fresh, hand-dipped donuts — you can take it up a notch (or loosen the notches of your belt) with one of their donut ice cream sandwiches. Mic drop.
Dough
Dough donuts are, in a word: gourmet. Not only are they a sight for sore eyes (We’re looking at you, Hibiscus-flavored donut), but take a bite of one of these bad boys and it’s game over. Do yourself a favor and don’t just get one — splurge on a box. You’d be doing yourself a disservice if you didn’t try at least a handful of their drool-worthy flavors. Passion Fruit, Nutella, and Horchata are just a few of our faves — but don’t just take it from us… postmate it.
The Doughnut Project
Ready to get weird, New York City? So is The Doughtnut Project. Case in point: The Everything Donut; it’s sweet, it’s savory, it’s like a bagel, but… better. Or, if beets are more your jam, The Doughnut Project has a Beet Glaze Filled With Ricotta Cheese that’s unlike anything you’ve ever tasted. Or, go hog-wild with a Bacon Maple Bar, sneak in some nostalgia with the PB&J 2.0, or get fresh with Lemon Sea Salt. Whatever you do, factor in that you’re gonna want seconds.
Donuts for breakfast, tacos for lunch? Sounds good to us. Click here to learn more about the best taco delivery spots in NYC.
