Donut Tyme

I’ve been meaning to come here for ages, but it’s not really near me. However, I happened to be driving by one day last week and I made a point to stop and take this bookmark off the list.
First of all, Donut Tyme is open ²⁴⁄₇. I’m not sure of any other donut places that are open all the time except for maybe one of the chains that starts with a ‘W.’ Secondly, there is not a huge selection compared to your other traditional donut shops, but they do have some huge donuts, literally. See the pics of the cinnamon twist and glazed donut that I took: BIG! And let me tell you that the cinnamon twist is not only big in size, but it’s big in taste. Anyone who knows me well knows that I love cinnamon and this may have been the best cinnamon twist I’ve had in a long time. You want to know how good it is? I ate the WHOLE thing by myself, in the car, on my way to work. There was no shame in my donut game that morning. I would go out of my way just to get another one knowing how good that twist was. I also tried something unique they have there called the fried apple burrito, which is almost like Mickey D’s old school apple pie but made with a glazed tortilla. It was okay, but the filling was too sweet for me.
Those are actually the only two that I tried. The lady behind the counter was very friendly and there were customers who were probably regulars hanging out. I’d come back for the twist, but nothing else really caught my eye.

We walked in after a night out on Fremont and a random donut craving. We got greeted by a super cheerful gentleman. He gave us great genuine customer service. We got half a dozen donuts some milk and coffee. They were Delish! We got home and heated them up a bit. Perfect midnight snack after a night out. Will definitely be coming back here again.

A solid traditional donut shop.
Don’t look for s’mores donuts or cronuts or balsamic fig creations here, they stick with the classics and do a good job. Selection is not huge, and the only thing I’ve seen out of the ‘originals’ genre was fried apple burritos (making a note to get one next time!). So far I’ve only tried the blueberry and the old fashioned, but they were both delicious: light and cakey, not too crumbly.
As others have mentioned, Donut Tyme is 24 hours, so don’t fret about getting a maple long john in the afternoon or late at night.

I am almost never on the east side of town, but when I was finally in the area, I decided to give this place a try. The donuts were excellent! I ate a half dozen myself. They were all very fresh. I had a buttermilk bar, sour cream, glazed twist, cake with sprinkles, blueberry cake and apple filled. Great low prices too. Some donut shops in town charge twice as much for donuts which are not as good.

Can’t get enough of their donutssss! I rarely crave for donuts, but when I do, this is the place to be! Their donuts just melt in my mouth! I have yet to try all the flavors, but so far, all I’ve tried were really good! Better than dunkin donuts! Oh yes! Way better! =P

This place used to be the best donuts in town but they changed their recipe. I go to Winchell’s now.

Love this donut shop. Super old school, staff people always nice and to top it off it’s always open :)

i just keep going back and turning my friends onto donut tyme. the prices can’t be beat and the flavors are awesome!

The best and freshest donuts in Nevada! Our little hidden gem store on E. Charelston. I know churches, groups and individuals that will drive all the way across town to come to our little hidden store. Better than Krispy Cream. Better than the other donut stores. Cooked fresh and open 24 hours a day and night. Best in the west and priced fair. Enjoy!!! :)

Best donuts ! If you like fluffy donuts you’ll love this place! I hate anorexic krispy kreme donuts. Such a waste of money. Donut Tyme always has a huge selection too

Amazing. No other doughnut compares. In a weird part of town but it’s my go to place when I want a doughnut. The buttermilk donut is the best and the second best IMO is the cinnamon crunch. Come here at least and try it out once. I promise you’ll be hooked.

Great donut shop open 24 hours. The donuts are fresh and taste like the good Olé days. They have all your favorites and you can even watch them making the donuts as your ordering. We will drive clear across town for these lovely pieces of fried dough. Better than Krispy Kreme for sure.

Cozy mom and pop donut shop. Not the most wide variety but the quality is good. My favorite is the glazed buttermilk.
They’ve been at this location for at least 10 years. Love supporting the small shops.

Best donuts ever been coming here for years they have a wide variety of donuts at a decent price they blow away any of the other donuts like dunkin Winchells and krispy crème… even their plaon donuts are fresh and just taste awesome.. They are open ²⁴⁄₇ baby donut time anytime

Love their donuts they just have to put their donuts in separate boxes if they are gonna overlap since all the icing will come off and stick to other donuts but they taste awesome

I just simply love this place! Never once had a bad experience or donut from them! At the end of the day, I love me some donuts and this hits the spot for me! And of course, as previously mentioned, being 24hrs never hurts. After all, it’s Vegas baby!

This place has some good glazed donuts and the sized just right. I mean really huge. I wasn’t too thrilled with the selection but that was ok because when the craving for a donut comes it comes fast and furious.
I love the fact that this local donut joint is open 24 hours. Donut Tyme actually fits right in on Charleston. that whole section of the building has that step back in time feeling. I love the old school feel. When pulling up to the place images or flashbacks of old cop cars come to mind with cops eating inside the joint.
These donuts are pretty good even though the selection is small. I REALLY wish the selection had blueberry donuts or something strawberry glazed. I know if Im in the area Im defiantly thinking about stopping here. I compare this joint to winchells without the famous name. Donuts to me are still KING of the sweets! I can have an awesome day at the gym and drive by Donut time and it’s like the car takes control of my willpower and parks itself in front of the store and I walk into the place all zombie like ready to stuff my face with the tasty donuts. This place will live to fight many more days… you understand! lol

Open ²⁴⁄₇ in a nondescript strip-​mall at 4268 East Charleston with a mantra of «Making mouthful of happy moments» an early morning stop at Donut Tyme was largely a result of my inability to sleep in on Saturdays and with a sixteen mile run already under my belt with breakfast plans at eight o’clock a 6:35am arrival proved perfectly timely, the morning’s fresh options emerging from the fryer just a few minutes before I entered the front door.
Clearly a local’s spot with regulars proving the rule as nearly every patron’s order was already known to the friendly clerk on their arrival it was only after a few questions, easily managed despite language barriers, that a half dozen was ordered and with the $ 4.95 tab paid and laptop in hand the next hour was spent in sugary indulgence while perusing the internet via free WiFi for information on the Kings and Buckeyes games later that night.
Entirely ignoring yeasted options in favor of the cake based classics by which any donut shop should be judged it was with a seasonal pumpkin ring that the tasting began and with surprisingly restrained glaze and a supple center without a hint of grease the nutmeg notes of spice shined, a similar lightness found in streusel-​topped crumb selection with a slightly less dense cake beneath a similar lacquer of sweetness that acted to balance a substantial compliment of cinnamon that otherwise could have easily been ‘too much.‘
Moving next to blueberry, obviously artificial but tasty none the less, it was a small fritter into which I next sank my teeth and although a bit less ‘apple’ than I’d have personally preferred the crispy shellac over soft batter was virtually oilless, an impressive feat for any bakery to overcome such a common complaint.
Hoping for a ‘best for last finish’ with two personal favorites following the fritter it would be difficult for any local bakery to outperform the high standards set by the buttermilk bar at Sunrise Too and although Donut Tyme admittedly came close despite over glazing this particular piece it was the Sour Cream Old-​Fashioned that effortlessly stole the show, a smooth and rich finish to the delicate base with light sourness that rose to the palate as initial sugary notes faded on the tongue.
Clearly overlooked, likely in part due to location, but executing well across the board Donut Thyme is the sort of place many would claim ‘doesn’t exist’ in Nevada — a 24-​hour donut parlor on par with the likes of those in California and easily a rival to Real or Friendly for ‘best overall’ in the 702.

Do-​do-​do-​donuts! Who doesn’t love donuts??? Especially fresh donuts that you can get 24 hours a day! Yes, 24 hours a day!!!
Donut Tyme is my mom’s go-​to donut shop on the East Side. I have sampled their donuts plenty of times and have always had a happy belly afterwards. I finally made a trip to the store to pick up some donuts for my mommy.
The store is in a small strip mall on Charleston and Lamb. It doesn’t stand out much, so you do have to look for it. Parking is treacherous, so watch out for the crazies in the lot. I almost got hit 3 times because not one person was looking while driving. The lanes seem narrow too, so it seems you are right on top of the next car.
As you walk in, the store doesn’t have any ambiance, but the donuts totally make up for that! They have all of the wonderful classics you grew up with like maple bars, chocolate covered, apple fritters, and of course SPRINKLES! They also have specialities options like the apple burrito and giant pinwheels. I haven’t tried all of them, but the ones I have are yummy goodness. My favorite it the glazed donut with chocolate topping, closely followed by the glazed buttermilk. I know it isn’t fancy, but it is super great!
The prices are reasonable too. Regular donuts start at $.80 and the jumbo ones start at $ 1.50. You can get a dozen regular donuts for $ 8.50!
The shop isn’t fancy or trendy, but they have legit donuts. Don’t walk in hungry, because you might walk out with 4 dozen donuts!!!
