Polar Donuts

Love this place! I like the atmosphere, the employees, and the donuts. The Boston Cream is my favorite.

Really really good donuts. Soft, sweet, slight chewy. Pillowy texture. Melts in your mouth bite of deliciousness. Free donut to sample when you walk in and that’s the bait that hooks you in to this delightful pleasure. Will definitely visit again.

These donuts are seriously so good! Save yourself the regret and just get two. We were visiting from KC and found this highly-​rated shop and decided to give it a try. Definitely worth it.

Polar Donuts, BY FAR, has some of THE BEST DONUTS that I’ve ever tasted. My wife and I had the pleasure of taking a trip to NW 10^th and Meridian to this tiny, unassuming, donut shop today. We woke up at 4am to get ready for our trip, and upon arriving, we were sweetly greeted by the aroma of fresh treats and smiling faces. The atmosphere was very welcoming and we even received a free glazed donut to whet our palate before purchasing! Our daughter received a donut lady — their version of a donut hole — and she loved it. Of course, we had to purchase the almighty «Pimp Hand» donut, which is VERY good. The flavor of their pastries are infused throughout, which creates a flavor EXPLOSION on your taste buds with each bite. We will be returning here more often. I HIGHLY recommend Polar Donuts to any and all who have the opportunity to stop by. Great customer service, great products, great everything!

This review is for information only, I did not actually eat here. Googling gluten-​free donuts might bring up Polar Donuts, but in fact, they do not have a GF offering. Yes, they use potato flakes as an ingredient, but wheat is used as well. They owner can’t figure out how the rumor got started.
That being said, if I wasn’t celiac, I would definitely buy donuts here. The owner was very warm and friendly and I was offered a donut the moment I walked in. The smell was sheer perfection!

I originally had thought this would be a diamond in the rough. However I was mistaken the shop was very messy and the donuts were not good. They do give you a free donut when you walk in though.

Their glazed donuts knock Krispy Kreme out of the water!!! SO GOOD!!!

good donut but I have a little problem with the
gift certificate I bought. It said spend $ 20 take $ 10 off, but the owner offer me to buy a dozen of glaze for $ 4.99 (reg price $ 6.20).
I drove 20 miles so I can buy some jelly filled, cream filled, or get some of those fritter that I see on this site.
Really disappointed because the owner don’t want to honor the gift certificate. There is no expiration date on the gift certificate, and I paid for it, all he said is «we don’t take this anymore»

Awesome Place!!! Maple donut were just so, so, but all the rest of there donuts totally delicious!!!

The best glazed donuts!
They are very friendly and even give you a free donut when you walk in

The customer service is spectacular. Everyone was offered fresh warm glazed donuts the moment we entered… And the owner is super hilarious. Great place

My husband recently read an article on Yahoo about this place so we had to check it out. It was everything we anticipated! Right after walking in the door, each of us were offered a free glazed donut while we waited in line to place our order. The free donut was still warm and absolutely delicious. I had to order a second. I also had the maple donut, which was equally impressive. My husband had the pumpkin fritter. (They have a wide variety of fritters available.) I think the density of the donuts are what set this place apart. They use a potato flour, instead of regular baking flour and it makes for a scrumdelicious donut! The staff were very friendly and knew how to get people through the line. (We went on a Sunday so it was pretty packed). I highly recommend you give this donut place a shot! You won’t be disappointed!

This place seems to be pretty popular but I’m confused at to why. THe donuts are greasy and the maple glaze was all dried out.

If reviews were based on food quality and taste then I might be persuaded to give a 5 star rating. On this day that I visited I got in the line of people waiting to place their donut order. After waiting behind four other people it was almost our turn to place our order. The man who was behind the counter gathering the orders looked up and looked right past us to the woman behind us named Susan. How do I know her name you ask? He called her by her first name. That’s how. Shame on you Polar Donuts for being so rude and shame on Susan for barreling ahead of others who were waiting before you graced us with your presence. Cow.

This IS THE BEST in OKC for donuts that I have had so far. There is a variety of flavors for the cream and jelly filled donuts. The apple fritters are not hard and very flavorful. Wish there were more dark chocolate or chocolate options since I am a chocoholic, but hands down this doughnut shop is very good!
The prices are reasonable but don’t expect a cute café theme or something fancy to sit and enjoy eating them in. The staff is super kind and good at recommending something that will suit your needs.

I woke up this morning in quite a mood for donuts! I’m thinking to myself ok Miss Donut Kween you’ve never had donuts in the wonderful state of Oklahoma so let’s put on your Donut Crown and get to steppin’ out on the town and search for the best Donut place around. I searched my Unilocal app and figured I’d find the closest donut shop to our hotel as I was wanting to get on the road to finish my travels.
I came across Polar Donuts which was a few miles up the street from where we were. I saw the pics first and what caught my fancy was the names of a few of the donuts: The Camel Toe & Strong Pimp Hand. Now with these names how can one not want to find out what this donut shop is all about? I was hooked. Creativity and flava-flav’s that stand out from the hum-​drum of dunkin donuts or Krispy Kreme always tend to catch my eye. I set the GPS and I was off for a morning adventure. My loving donut krew seemed to be as excited as I was!!! We found the place with ease. I saw the Polar Bear colorfully displayed in the window, it was as if he was waving us a friendly «How do ya do, step right in» and so we did. What first caught my eye was not the Camel Toe donuts or the Strong Pimp hand as I would suspect but rather the fritters. Normally not a big thang to me as I rarely give them a second glance. But there were quite a few choices, Peach Fritter, Cherry Fritter, Apple Fritter, Blueberry Fritter & Pineapple Fritters. My Word! All these flavors running through my mind. What would I pick, how would I pick? Decisions, Decisions! Well I had to hastily go through process of elimination as there were so many other tempting donuts to try. Don’t like Apple so that was out, Blueberry was sold out so I went for the remaining three. My eyes were going back and forth over the case as if I was at a tennis match, watching the ball being hit back and forth trying not to miss a beat. The bottom row of donuts were all filled powdered sugar donuts. They didn’t appear to be filled the normal way they looked a bit like donut sandwiches, filled with everything from peach to apple, blueberry to cherry. Then there were a few amazing flavors such as chocolate mousse, Peanut Butter, Strawberry with the cutest pic of Strawberry Shortcake (oh those childhood memories) key lime pie & chocolate puddin’ *licking lips* lemon & wild raspberry! Next in line was Brazilian Crack. They were out of this so I know a return trip is necessary! And soon! Other flavors included Whipped Cream Pie and Boston cream pie. After all of this exhaustion and need for a sugar high I picked the donuts to bring home to friends and family and then I moved on to those I would try on the road. (Wait they didn’t make it even remotely close to the road! Most were tasted and sampled well before we started our trip haha!)
For our road trip I picked the infamous Camel Toe & Strong Pimp hand. And each of the fritters minus the apple (ewww!)
Now Im sure you are all wondering what is a Camel Toe. Basically its similar to a bear claw however its not a pastry like a bear claw it has one simple slice down the middle and its more of a glazed donut base with a wonderfully flavored cherry cream filling. Once I was done with it I instantly knew I should have ordered more. The Strong Pimp Hand very similar but larger with slices cut to look like fingers. This one im sad to say I didn’t eat because it was filled with apple filling (again ewww. I just cant do the apple thing! Pass me a fresh apple and I’ll eat eat. but cooked apple IMO is not doable
!!) :C)
Before I started up my car I had to try the Peach Fritter. First bite put me in a space from whence I did not wish to return. Biting down into a Krispy Krunchy outer shell with flakes of the light powdered sugary coating Kracking off and falling to my lap couldn’t have been any better at that moment. It was a perfect ratio of cinnamon and spices in the light fried to perfection dough which from what the owner told me was made with Idaho Potatoes, and then there were the pieces of peach that tasted so fresh it was as though they just picked them off the tree cut them up and threw them in the batter. Sinking my teeth into the amazing soft moist center with those pieces of silky peach on my tongue… *Wowza!* *Kaboom!!* *Holy Smokes Batman!!*
I walked back into the shop to buy a bottled water however I ran into yet another reason why I am giving them a 5-​star rating!
I love my milk iced cold with a layer of ice floating from the top. I am not one to ever purchase milk as a drink at any eatery I go to.
I went in with the expectation to buy a bottled water as this is 98% of what I drink. Upon meeting, who I believe was the owner, «Yance» I opened the cooler and just happened to pull out a milk and I shook it and low and behold it was iced cold! Super Big Smile on my Face!!! I bought the milk as I was having a conversation with ‘Yance” who was explaining to me the process of the fritters …

***BEWARE, YOU CAN’T JUST EAT ONE***
I’ve never really been a huge donut fan… but oh man, these donuts are heavenly! When you first walk through the door, you are greeted with a smile and are asked if you would like a complimentary glazed donut while you order. The first time I came here, I declined the free donut and decided to just pick up a dozen glazed to bring to work. The whole drive to work was like torture because my mouth was watering from the awesome smell that was coming out of the box! When I finally got to work, I tried one and it was the perfect balance of crispiness and chewiness. It wasn’t overly sweet either which made me pretty happy because that chain donut shop around the country makes theirs waaaaay too sweet.
My second time here I was offered a complimentary chocolate glazed donut and who the heck could turn down chocolate? I loved it because it was light and airy, had a little crunch to it from the glaze, and it was not too sweet. As I perused the case of all of their donunts, I decided that I wanted to try a fritter. They make apple, pineapple, and blueberry fritters and I tried an apple fritter. It was crispy and had a generous amount of apples inside. Yum! This place is awesome, so go try their donuts!

Flew in from Houston and stumbled upon this hole in the wall. Some of the friendliest people working there and the best selection of Coffeemate creamer!

Excellent! Walk in and be greeted to a complimentary glazed donut that is out of this world. The staff is super friendly and the donuts aren’t a standing advertisement for General Mills cereal. It’s full of good classics such as fritters (Apple, Pineapple, Cherry and Blueberry) as well as delicious filled donuts with flavors like strawberry pie and chocolate pudding. I really enjoy the blueberry bar (a cake style concoction) and the long johns are amazing. I highly recommend this place! It blows Hurts Donuts out of the water!!!

Love a business that is family owned and part of the neighborhood. This gem is way off the beaten path, but so worth the trip. I had the pleasure of tasting these wonderful spud-​nuts at my office and quickly became addicted to the chewy confections.
I recommend the blueberry filled powdered donuts. Bursting with flavor and not too sweet. My husband is a fan of the Boston cream pie and whipped topping filled chocolate glazed donuts. My mother had the pineapple fritter. It was huge and full of flavor. I also couldn’t help myself and had the camel toe.
I’ll be back for the pimp hand and anything else they come up with.
They even donate the donuts to charities after the day is over.
So step on down and adjust your camel toe and keep your pimp hand strong!!!
