Britt's Donuts on the Carolina Beach Boardwalk
Britt's is open only during the busy, beach season. We visited just days after Britt's opened for the 2015 season--and were met with at least an hour wait both weekend days! With those lines, we knew that these donuts had to be worth the wait! We snapped this photo early on a weekday-- shortly after Britt's opened for the day. The stools inside were already filling up!
The Britt's Glazed Donut
Why aren't we showing a huge donut case with 80 varieties of donuts? Because Britt's serves one donut: a warm, homemade glazed donut. Cold milk and hot coffee are served in styrofoam cups for carrying--and Britt's only accepts cash for payment.
What did we think of Britt's Donuts? This was probably the best glazed donut I've ever eaten. Would I stand in line for over an hour for one? Yes--I think I would! If you make it to Carolina Beach--you really do need to have a donut from Britt's. I think the appeal for us was that the donuts were warm and, since the shop is so extremely busy, extremely fresh from the fryer!
If you go to Britt's Donuts in Carolina Beach...
Expect a line. In fact, if you see a massive line on the boardwalk--it is probably heading to Britt's! Have cash. They only accept cash--no credit cards! You don't want to stand in line for an hour or more only to find that you can't buy a donut!
Buy more than one donut. You will want another--and you won't want to stand in line again!
Britt's is only open seasonally. We were lucky enough that our off-season travels were close enough to the season that they had already opened!

ReplyDeleteThese would be worth the wait!
DeleteWow looks so heavenly! Soft and sweet just the way I want my donuts!
ReplyDeleteThese were probably the freshest donuts the girls had ever tasted! They will never look at glazed donuts from the store the same again!
DeleteThey look amazing!
ReplyDeleteThey were certainly a big hit!
DeleteYum. Everyplace should have those kind of donuts. Here, it's Greenbush Bakery close to campus.
ReplyDeleteWe used to have a small, family owned bakery near my grandparents that was the best! It's awesome to find a really good bakery!
DeleteOMG, i do LOVE a good donut! *drool*
ReplyDeleteMy middle daughter is a donut-addict....and she even had to admit that this was a really good one!
DeleteNever heard of Britt's. That donut looks mighty yummy. You know it's got to be good if people are willing to wait in line for it.
ReplyDeleteOur first thought was.....an hour wait for a donut??? Then we realized why!
DeleteYum yum yum! Where's mine?
ReplyDeleteVisit Keith's Ramblings!
I think the best bet is to let one guy stand in line for 50! :)
DeleteThey look amazing! Thank you for joining our Oh My Heartsie Girl Wordless Wednesday Link Party.. Have a great day, co-host Evija @Fromevijawithlove xx
ReplyDeleteThey were! Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteI kid you not every time we go anywhere, the first thing DH looks for are donut shoppes. If we ever go to Carolina Beach, then I know DH will wanna check them out. It's really, really hard to beat Krispy Kreme hot-glazed donuts, but I'm open to giving them a try on your recommendation. However, I don't know if I am patient enough to stand in line for an hour for them, though. That's the only draw back to checking Britt's Donuts out AND they only take cash. That's something we carry very little on us anymore. Oh well...have a great #WW

Visit them super early in the morning on a weekday! Every day we were there--the line was over an hour long from 12pm on!
DeleteWow, so it really tasted as good as everyone was saying? Now I want one!
ReplyDeleteMomfever
