Bakers Dozen

It’s true! These donuts are soft, fresh, not too yeasty, and addicting!
When I got in there was a line of 3 ahead and more ladies joined to help out — friendly and efficient!
Didn’t want to be greedy so I got the King Cake donut and a dozen holes. Love the bags so cute!
Couldn’t resist while driving and I snuck in a hole. Whoa so light, fluffy, cute, and a pretty good amount of just right sweetness. The glaze isn’t too sugary where it may fall out in clumps but small flakes.
King Cake donut was great! Original dipped in glaze and with the tradition colored sugars. It was light and airy and just NOM NOM NOM. Definitely a treat while I’m home for a few days from California — getting home feeling with deliciousness without wasting an entire king cake purchase.
Not sure if it’s possible to do a cinnamony magic spell to the KCD but if BD can you got a winner where it is definitely like King cake!
Will be back for whatever duration I’m in town — cannot wait!

The Quality is very Good! The Selection: Honey Buns, Apple Fritters and Design Donuts are plentiful and very Tasty. Service is Impeccable: the Crew is very friendly and knowledgeable and literally work a «Pit Stop». More Often, a Packed House. GET THERE EARLY. I get there whenever I’m on Parole.

These doughnuts are seriously the best I’ve ever had. I live within walking distance of a popular Mid-​City doughnut shop, and I will get in a car and drive to Bakers Dozen any day! They’re soft and cloudlike, not overly sweet and not overly doughy. Also, the staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. The seating kinda stinks, but it’s a small price to pay for these delectable delicacies.

I was actually very disappointed arriving with a 1 ½ year old with all bar style chairs and they don’t have any seating for smaller children. It made our experience less than pleasurable. I won’t be there for a few years which is sad and not a reason to not given someone business. There are many more toddler friendly donut places where parents and children can both enjoy. Unfortunately I can’t comment on tje donuts as trying to get my child from falling 5 feet in a high bar chair I never ate a thing as I required 2 hands on my child for his safety.

Absolutely awesome. Great donuts, fun staff. Sent a bunch to my Tulane student for her birthday — it made her day. Thanks, Brandi!

BEST glazed donuts in the city! Always hot, and have a light crispy layer of glaze on top. If you like Mary lee’s in Baton Rouge then these are the best alternative.

Best donuts in the area. Traditional flavors, great quality. We lived down the street from them for 3 years before we even knew they existed! They close shop very early. Worth getting up early for!

My favorite doughnut shop in the NOLA area, hands down. Not too sweet, just the right size, and they stay good for DAYS! Give me 13? YES, PLEASE!
Got into a debate with a security guard about these delightful yummies and he was a die hard «KK» fan. One bite of these Bakers Dozen deliciousness and he was hooked!
I think I might stop by in the morning on my way to work… just because I can!

God, I love these donuts. They are absolutely every thing I want in a donut, sweet and airy, with a tinge of fattiness to them. Bakers Dozen donuts are everything a donut should be and I probably ate my weight in these when we went. I would give them 5 stars, but my biggest quarrel was the service, we stood there for about 5 – 10 minutes with multiple attendants at the bar making eye contact with us but none of them actually helping us other than looking a bit annoyed (they still had an hour until close and they were not slammed). This started our first experience at their location not so pleasantly, but hey maybe they were having a rough day and I will give them the benefit of the doubt. Finally, after waiting around the owner who had previously been working in the back asked us if we’d been helped, she was a complete sweetheart and definitely made us feel better about purchasing from their establishment. We will be back again for these amazing donuts, hopefully with friendlier service, but the donuts are amazing enough that we’d come back regardless.

Great selection of very tasty donuts with a lot of different options and flavors. Only knock is the price though they do have very large donuts. Isn’t a destination but if in the area in the AM its not a bad place to get that quick sugary breakfast.

I have to say I used to be a really a big donut fan, but had lost a great deal of enthusiasm for them because of the heaviness of most of the places around the city. I wasn’t expecting much on this, my first visit to Bakers Dozen, but this place is the BOMB!!! I arrived at about 10 am, and asked if I could get a dozen hot glazed donuts. When the sales clerk simply turned around and reached for the donuts in the case behind her, I assumed I’d be receiving some donuts that I’d have to microwave at home to get them hot. BOY WAS I WRONG!!! The donuts WERE HOT, and AAMMAZZING!!! To add to that, the sales clerk was friendly and the place was VERY CLEAN and INVITING!!! I think I love donuts again!!! I’ll definitely be back!!!

Love this place the best donuts in the New Orleans area! Chocolate covered donuts are the best!!!

love this place — I’m from Houston so not much can compare to Shipleys,… but. this place gives them a solid run for their money — stopped here to grab some treats for the office. it was FAR out of our way considering we were coming from Mandeville and heading to Vets, passed up the office because the reviews here were soooo good. I check Unilocal no matter what city I’m in to find the best and Unilocal didn’t let me down — got three dozen glazed, still warm and melt in your mouth, then. the bakers dozen stepped up and said, ‘you get a free one for each dozen’ well. I don’t mind if I dooo… grabbed a jelly, boston crème, and chocolate covered… ate those on the way to the office and shared the rest with the team. They can’t wait for me to come back to Metairie, they know I’m gonna bring the goods… — you stay classy Bakers Dozen —

The donuts were fresh and hot!!! We went there for the National Donut Day and was very busy. The service was great.

Best doughnuts in the city. Hands down. They are melt in your mouth delicious. Will not get doughnuts anywhere else.

Bakers Dozen: Perfect spot for Saturday or Sunday mornings with kids. The doughnuts are good and they always have some type of colorful doughnut with a theme for the little ones. My favorite are the doughnut holes. They also serve Community Coffee Breakfast Blend and Decaf for the coffee lovers.

We love Bakers Dozen! The hot glaze really are the best you’ll ever get– so fresh and not overly sweet, just right. The chocolate glaze is my second favorite and my kids love all the special kid themes they do. We also love how spotlessly clean this place is. Owned by two very hardworking people who love what they do. Once you go, you’ll never go anywhere else!

Up until about a year ago, I always thought this place was out of business and just an empty building. Whenever I would drive by it was never open nor were any cars there. I would often see people with boxes from here at garage sales around the area though. Fleurty Girl kept promoting them too. I finally looked them up on Unilocal and said well, no wonder! They are hardly open. They close at 11am everyday.
I had read a lot of good things about the place and said sometime I’ll have to try to stop there when they are open. This past weekend, I finally stopped in. However, they were about to close in ten minutes and there really wasn’t a whole lot left to choose from.
I picked one of their Spring Fling donuts and took it home. It was very good. It wasn’t too greasy and it was very light and fluffy. The glaze had just the right amount of sweetness to it.
Each single donut is a dollar a piece. It seems their boxes of donut holes are a popular choice. They seem to cater a lot to little kids too, as many of their donuts are cutely decorated with cartoon characters (as seen on the calendar of their website).
It would be nice if they had longer hours, but I guess they do a good enough business to stick with their current hours.

Baker’s Dozen donuts seem to be everywhere lately, and that is definitely not a complaint!
These delicious donuts are fluffy, light and delicious and whenever I go to a party or event and see that they are serving Baker’s Dozen donuts, I know that I am definitely in for a treat. Yes, their store is located all the way out in Jefferson, but it is definitely worth the trip. Not only are the donuts delicious but the staff is amazingly friendly. Brandi, one of the owners, is super personable and is always open to a chat.
I look forward to another delicious bite of Baker’s Dozen.

So I’ll start here I’ve only been once… So far but that’s going to change in a hurry
Staff: extremely friendly even though they were busy and I had a 4 year old wanting to choose her own and they were patient enough.
Place: looks like a typical donut/​coffee place with one major difference… It’s CLEAN! and very clean! I didn’t feel gross leaving there and felt very comfortable eating there (I’m picky)
I may have been lucky but the donuts were so fresh and mouth watering i could’ve eaten a whole dozen on my own.
My only complaint would be with a staff member. Although cute, she was wearing a Miami Dolphins shirt on Saints gameday Sunday so this is a little concerning… Who Dat! :)~
