    We stopped here while visiting Florida, on our way to Destin. These donuts are amazing. They are light and tasty, and are a generous size. The filled ones have plenty of filling and taste great. We actually stopped here the day we were heading back home too. We had other donuts in the area during our visit but these were by far the best. I would definitely come back here again and I highly recommend Dan-D-Donuts if you’re in the area. I only wish they had the chocolate ones everyday, not just on Fridays.

    Wow! Just wow! What a donut. We just came from there about a half hour ago and I'm in love! We got their King Dan with chocolate (Added a picture) and it was absolutely incredible! Make sure you get a bottle of milk to go with it because you are going to need it! The other donuts we grabbed were all amazing and soft as well. The only draw back to this spot was I don't think I can ever go back to not having these donuts. I'm spoiled for life!

    Don’t go when they are busy and order anything hot or think you can pick your dozen donuts without an attitude. We patiently waited. No problem. By the time we received our hot food, it had clearly been sitting out, it was cold. Spoke with the owner to maybe get our hot food hot, he said there was nothing he could do about it since he was busy.

    If someone asked me how Dan-D-Donuts & Deli was after Hurricane Michael, I’d say “dandy”. This local donut shop is by far better than any franchise like Dunkin Donuts or Krispy Kreme. All of the donuts are plus size, with fair prices. First visit, tried the Maple Yeast Donut. Delicious It was soft and sweet. The business doesn’t offer anywhere to sit. You either have the drive-thru or the walk-up window. I strongly suggest that you walk-up to the window for your first visit so you can place your eyes of the feast. Their selection is huge. Literally. The apple and cherry fritters, as well as the cinnamon raisin and chocolate cinnamon rolls are as big as a bible. Holy Shit! Was my immediate reaction when I saw them. They also offer a variety of breakfast biscuits, juice, milk, and coffee. Last but not least, the customer service was great. Way above average. The young lady that took my parties order was friendly and wore a pretty and warm smile. She really put the Dandy in Dan-D-Donuts & Deli. I was glad to give this donut shop a try, and I’m sure I’ll be visiting them again. 9 out of 10

    Okay, I have dealt with alot with this place. but charging $0.50 for no ice is kind of ridiculous. I could understand maybe charging $2.50 for a box if you request it but .50 for no ice is unheard of!

    I had been here once before, probably 7 months ago. It is right by my house, thus why I had it at all. I just got a breakfast sandwich, tater tots and a drink. The sausage smelled and tasted like a dog food patty, the drink was all ice and it was 11 and some change for that order. I understand they are a donut spot. So maybe that's the best route to take. I won't be back for anything but maybe to try and a donut. If they are amazing I'll edit the review. Otherwise, I say steer clear of breakfast with sausage for now.

    The locals love it and the tourist visit it. Everyone loves Dan D Donuts! Surprising your coworkers with these donuts will make their day! Surprising your teachers with these donuts will make their day! I love the coconut donuts. My kids love all the donuts.

    Super tasty and very unique donuts. With options like key lime filled and pineapple fritter, there is an option for every palette. The staff was very friendly and we will definitely be back to try their breakfast sandwich options.

  • 5/5 Kristi M. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome assortment of donuts, pastries and even a great selection on the lunch menu of sandwiches and burgers. Staff is always nice and helpful too. They offer a walk up window and a drive thru.

  • 2/5 Jeff H. 1 year ago on Google
    On Tuesday I bought two dozen glazed Donuts to share with visitors at the beach. When I opened the boxes at the condo they were much smaller than they were a few months ago. The taste was a bit different. Today I put one in the microwave...these just are not the same Donuts. I've been buying sharing and bragging on these special Donuts for years. What happened?

  • 3/5 Boss H. 2 years ago on Google
    Used to be the best in town for decades, but IMO, I don't see the same quality or value as it used to be. While there's not many other better choices nearby, I can honestly say I'm not as enthused to go out of my way these days. The cake donuts have gotten smaller and aren't as fresh. You could barely tell the glazed sour cream cake apart from a regular cake donut. Not as moist or dense as it used to be granted prices have gone up as justified for current times. Also there's seems to be an extremely limited supply beyond school let-in time that didn't used to be which makes for inconvenient timing and/or ridiculously long lines. Like even around 9 am theres nothing left to choose from. Seems purposely done for whatever reason. Why bother to even stay open after school starts if this is the case? No longer worth the hassle as there's another longstanding shop with donuts that still tastes as fresh as the olden days. They might be a bit out of the way, but with current housing construction in the immediate area, they'll be booming before long.

    Their donuts rival Krispy Kreme! They also have apple fritters and cinnamon rolls the size of your face!!! Holy cow! I got a dozen this morning for my office and they were a hit!!

    Good food

  • 5/5 Linda G. 3 years ago on Google
    Great donuts. Huge selection with something for everyone. This is an outdoor shop and most of their selections are neatly organized behind glass with the just made donuts cooling on racks in the baking area. Get there early, they sell out of certain donuts shortly after opening. Go on Friday for devil’s food chocolate, chocolate donuts. Chocolate frosting is chocolatey and tasty. It’s not too sweet. Fantastic chocolate chip muffins. The big and best apple fritters ever are yummy. Cinnamon rolls are huge.

    Amazing customer service! Try the sausage breakfast bagels!

  • 4/5 Jim S. 3 years ago on Google
    Touted as “THE” donut place in Panama City. Have to admit they are pretty good. The fritter was huge and tasty. I preferred the cake donuts but the glazed yeast was top notch. They have a huge variety. There is generally a line and it’s across the street from the high school so plan accordingly. Def worth a stop.

  • 4/5 S N. 1 year ago on Google
    Good donuts. Walk up window and things are displayed so you can be see the available option so. Son in law had chili cheese dog and it was very good but price kept him from getting a 2nd one.

  • 5/5 Joseph G. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolute hole in the wall with the best food in Florida! You can order anything on the menu and I promise you that you won't be disappointed at all! The owner comes out if the line is too long and takes your order personally in the drive thru to assure a speedy hot and delicious meal! Don't accidentally get those glazed doughnuts because you will never be able to untaste the gloriousness of those fantastic works of art! If I'm lying I'm buying!

  • 5/5 Ranae B. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a Panama City icon. Southerners love their donuts and this is hands-down, the best in PC. We like the fritters and what my husband calls "coffee rolls" but what the outside world knows as cinnamon rolls. They actually make them plain or with raisins. And CHOCOLATE but you might as well call it fudge on top. I haven't had anything I wouldn't get again and each time I go there, I try a new thing or two. They also sell coffee and some good hot and cold sandwiches. They always give you plenty of napkins and a BIG box for the King Dan. Sometimes they even give away cool stickers

  • 5/5 Kelsey A. 1 year ago on Google
    Biscuits and gravy + chocolate milk = my breakfast nearly 3x per week! Staff is great, food comes out quick and fresh! We also get donuts delivered to my job often, they never disappoint.

  • 5/5 saleena h. 1 year ago on Google
    I love this place. Every now and then I have to detour from work route to stop by! They have the best everything!!

  • 4/5 Amanda K. 1 year ago on Google
    A Panama City local’s staple. As a Bay High Alumni I can attest to the awesomely satisfying donuts. They have some pretty tasty cheese fries too. This place is a rite of passage and I hope it stays around forever!

  • 2/5 kailey f. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this place for their chicken biscuit and choices of donuts so that’s why I’m putting stars. However do not get their hamburger meat, normally we’re always impressed with our they prep the food but the cheese burger today was terribly and we are having the worst stomach problems after eating it. I tried calling to let them know that their meat is bad but no answer/won’t even connect to their line so terrible communication problems as well.

  • 5/5 Demi L. 10 months ago on Google
    Excellent customer service and speedy to got me in and out in 5 minutes. Great place to stop before work and treat the employees! They have a drive thru too

  • 3/5 Tequila Answers A. 6 months ago on Google
    I am sure the donuts and breakfast must be great. Just Beware Just don't order their Burger , very bland and truly a pre-made taste. The fries will hold ya over until you can get home and cook.

  • 1/5 Marcus S. 9 months ago on Google
    This was a good friends experience from this eatery, and it does not surprise me. Today, I visited the Dan-D-Donuts & Deli to order a "specialty drink" with light ice. I was given a drink with more than half a cup of ice. I sent the drink back for the employee to correct. She replied that the drink was correct, told me to have a nice day, and closed the window. I motioned for her to return to the window, and I requested a refund. She then told me that in order to get a drink with light ice, I must pay extra. I explained that I only wanted the refund as I had just spent over $4 on a medium drink and that I wasn't paying extra for light ice. I didn't see any signs or policies that stated that. She went to get a gentleman who initiated the refund. I could tell he was aggravated. I asked him if customers really have to pay for light ice. He then asked if I was a business owner who purchased merchandise and inventory. He went on to say that when he was young, he found ways to get over or be slick just like those Bay High kids who come to their store. He said the students of Bay High try to be slick and get one friend to order a drink with no ice while the other orders a cup of ice so they have more drink. I asked how much more customers needed to pay for light ice, and he said, "Well, it don't matter because I gave you a refund." He finally said he'd tell me the cost stating, "now, because of BHS students and people trying to get over, if you order a drink especially a specialty drink with light ice, customers are going to pay $0.60 more for light ice. He also complained that he refunded me too much, and now he has to pay the difference (implying about the cup, lid, and straw as inventory). He then began closing the window, and as he did, I informed him that after being a customer for years, I would not be returning and his response was "yep, have a nice day". I've known Nana all my life as her daughter was my first teacher. I've been a customer since I was in kindergarten. Nana's customer service and satisfaction were nothing short of amazing. She has the sweetest soul ever. I know she'd be disappointed to see how her staff runs her establishment today. Sadly, I was on the phone with another business owner as the time who heard the entire conversation, and they too will no longer be a customer. You never know who people are and word travels very quickly. It pays to remain professional and to be kind to others at all times. Hopefully, the students of BHS will not encounter this treatment and the staff will change their view of these students who truly give them a lot of business.

    This is really a disappointing time for this establishment I grew up eating here. On this day I’m in line listening to people complain about a lady at the window by the the time I got there she asked my order I gave it to here then she looked at me and asked if I wanted a different donut than what I asked for I said no ma’am and repeated my order she then looked at me and said oh ok I’m sorry your having a bad day “Uh what” then she went to get my order when she came back I reach for my bag she then says I hope your day gets better I then look at her like she’s lost her mind as I turn to leave she’s yelling at my back to have a great day and god bless and I mean yelling. I got news for you Nana wouldn’t have stood for that kind of disrespect. Figure it out people.

  • 4/5 Nabil R. 4 months ago on Google
    Got a few morning donuts here and also a savory biscuit with eggs and bacon. The food was good and the service was quick and people were polite. It can get very busy at times as well so do note that: There are two windows where you can order from — sometimes only one of them is operational and be sure that you fall in line by the window that is actually serving. A mistake I made when I visited. Overall, decent donuts for a fair price.

  • 5/5 Tisha W. 5 months ago on Google
    If you're ever in Panama City, Tuesday through Saturday, please stop by this location. When I say donuts are nice and fluffy down to the everything bagel I ordered. It's a hit! Prices are on point, and the owners/staff are so very friendly. I'll be back to try more breakfast and lunch items.

  • 3/5 TINA D. 10 months ago on Google
    It was 12:45 on Friday when we arrived. They only had less than a dz extra large donuts! We end up getting 2 cinnamon twist .. they were not soft and a little tough to eat. Chocolate cinnamon rolls … delicious. Lemon filled donuts, and king donut. Cost about $25 Go here for the cinnamon rolls. So delicious! I debated if I wanted to go to parlor but for the price and the cinnamon rolls, worth going east from the navy base!

  • 5/5 Corey T. 3 years ago on Google
    Dan-D- Donuts is a staple in Panama City Florida and it's almost impossible not to make a pit stop by there while in town .I ordered two chocolate sprinkle donuts one cinnamon roll a link sausage sandwich and a small cup of coffee..Their cinnamon rolls I think are the most popular item on the menu. They are huge and delicious.This particular visit..I was given an abnormally small cinnamon roll.I brought it to the cashier's attention.She insisted ", they were the same thing but not the same sizes because they're made by hand and if they were made by a machine they'd all be the same size". She gladly gave me another one .Thank goodness I looked in the bags.. Overall experience was good as usual.

  • 5/5 Renee S. 3 years ago on Google
    Dan~D~Donuts is the ONLY place to go when your tummy is growling. They have the freshest and best donuts but that's not all! I love their sweet tea. Their prices are great. Service is fast and I've never been served by a friendlier staff. They always smile and are polite and (to me) that says alot about how the bosses/owner's treat their staff. Their burgers taste like you just pulled it off the grill. But my all time favorite is the Turkey croissant with mayo lettuce tomato and onion. Oh boy! My mouth is watering as I say it! They also have a drive thru and take call~in orders. Plus I just noticed they have one of those services delivering for them now! There's something for everyone. The ONLY downfall is that they're only open til 1 (11:30 on Saturday) so you gotta get there early if you're wanting particular donuts. And I wish they'd open another location with seating. Well I gotta go. Its 5:43am and I've gotta get me some AMAZING Dan~D food!!! Try it! You WON'T be disappointed! Chao.....

    I love the hot chocolate and food was great very good prices for a quick meal.

  • 5/5 Tom 3 years ago on Google
    Dan Dee get a lot of praise for their donuts, but the hidden gem is their hot food. I finish work in the mornings and regularly stop by for delicious sandwiches, often calling ahead first so it's a short jaunt through a line. You have to try their spicy chicken. It's great as a side or on a croissant. They also make a killer burger, and the food is always fresh. The combo of a sammy, side and a drink is good value. They're also one of the few places I've gone to that has never messed up an order. They're super consistent. Just make sure you either get there early to get the specific sweet stuff like donuts that you want (or order them the day before). People are NUTS for those donuts.
