Daybreak Donuts

Our first time at Daybreak and even though we are back home, 4.5 hours away- I can’t stop thinking about those donuts!!!!! The girl taking our order was helpful and friendly. The girl who dipped and packed our order was efficient and everything was absolutely mouthwatering!!! We got two dozen donuts for 11 of us and we cut each donut into pieces so that we could sample them all! There was not one donut we did not like !

Seriously the best donuts I’ve ever had! They make the donuts right in front of you, and come out so warm and soft. It’s going to be a challenge not to eat here every day during vacation!

Tiny place just outside of the touristy section of Surf City. Mostly just a counter and enough space for a few customers to stand. Best donuts I ever had. As you order them, someone starts making them. Can't get any fresher. So light and soft you'd never need to chew. You do have to wait for your donuts, but it is worth it. Limited parking.

These donuts are so good! I have never had this type of breading and they made them hot when we ordered them! They were flakey with crispy edges and the flavor of toppings seemed right in!
Go eat them!

These have to be the best donuts I have ever had. Warm and fluffy. Definitely recommend it if you are looking for a sweet treat!

We went this past Monday 9/16/24 This place is amazing. Would definitely recommend if your in the Topsail area. Amazing flavors to choose from. They have specials on top of regular menu flavors. Staff was super friendly.

This place was amazing and the staff was super friendly. I really appreciate how patient they were, and it was fun customizing donuts. Everything was super delicious too

Staff was friendly and the donuts were awesome. I recommend and will be back!

Amazing donuts. The dough taste like funnel cake batter. So good. Every single flavor I tried was great! Highly recommend any of the banana flavors.

A great way to start the day! Delicious donuts and so many flavors to choose from!

Worth the wait! Highly recommend stopping into Daybreak Donuts early one morning during your trip to TI! Donuts are made to order, which does take some time to dip by hand but they are hot and fresh when you get them. cost is ~$20 a doz. Only disappointment we had was that the staff couldn’t tell us what kind of coffee they brew. Other than that we were impressed with these melt in your mouth delicacies!

These are the best doughnuts around. Every year my friends and I come to Surf City and these doughnuts are a staple of our experience, one of the things we look forward to most next to the beautiful beaches here. The quality is also super consistent, year after year they taste just like we remember. 5/5 stars!

Love the donuts! Made fresh to order and have tons of flavor. I really enjoyed the sea salt caramel donut. Plan to return on our trip!

Absolutely amazing donuts! The donuts are made to order and they start making them for you while you're ordering. I'm glad I don't have a donut shop like this that's local to me because I'd be in donut rehab. Try bacon bomb!

I was so excited when I saw this fractured Prune. I used to live in Maryland 15 years ago and frequented a fractured prune up there.
This location is very clean. The staff were super friendly and helpful. My kids absolutely loved their donuts. It's so fun to be able to create your own donut.

Delicious, fresh made, custom donuts. We come here for donuts every time we visit the beach. Very similar to Duck donuts. Customer service is always great, very friendly, and the location is convenient

GREAT LOCAL DONUT SHOP! Staff was super nice --- the kid taking my order loaned me a bungee cord from his bicycle so I could strap my box of donuts on the back of my bicycle to get them home. Donuts made TO ORDER! Woot! Fresh! Warm! Amazing variety.

Stopped here on our way into town last Saturday. We arrived within 30 minutes of them closing but they still got us fresh delicious donuts. We got a few different kinds but our favorites were the key lime pie and French toast 🍩

Glad I stopped here, good sweet treats! Friendly service, nice unique flavor takes on fresh-made classic cake donuts. Old fashioned goodness!

This is always one of our first stops when we visit Topsail! Never had a bad donut from here and we have tried every one they have. We just left from our 7 day summer vacation and downed 24 between the five of us 😆 The staff is always very friendly and they get you in and out in no time. Already looking forward to my next visit. The merch they have is awesome too. My only complaint is that they never have hoodies in the summer and I would love to have one!! Who doesn't love to wear a hoodie on those chilly summer nights at the beach
