Mighty O Donuts

03/26/2008 Posted by BSkiff

Not only a chill spot with great donuts (yes they are incredible by any standards vegan or non...) but I would posit that Mighty-O makes the best americano in North Seattle. Stumptown, impeccably brewed. It has become increasingly difficult to find palatable espresso even in our coffee-arrogant city. Even famed Zoka's, across the street, delivers a mediocre pull.

mighty-o is a family favorite! my dairy-allergic kid loves the glazed and the sprinkled donuts. it's fun to watch through the window as the donuts are being made in the back of the shop. the people who work at mighty-o are friendly and nice, a relief from seattle's typical sullen-style service. i've taken a box of a dozen donuts to parties and they are always popular. the 4:00pm time is 'happy hour' and donuts are half-price. coffee is good, too.

Pros: great donuts

Cons: none

These doughnuts were the richest, most decadent I've ever tasted. The staff were wonderful, the place is inviting and charming, coffee is divine - if you don't have a car, getting there is extremely difficult (but hey, you'll walk off the calories ;) Beware, though, my friend and I felt very ill for about 3 hours afterwards - maybe it's the palm oil. Half a doughnut is probably good for one sitting.

I dragged two friends to Mighty-Os while vacationing in Seattle. I was told to pick donuts that "tasted like real food" since the donuts are vegan (friends have had bad experiences with vegan food). These were the best donuts I've ever had. Chocolate Mint, regular glazes, Lots O Chocolate and just the Chocolate Topped ones were our favorites. They had some different flavors (peanut butter and jelly, cinnamon toast) that were good. We ran out of time to make a second run there, otherwise I would have brought some home. I will definitely be back whe I'm back in WA.

Pros: Yummy, vegan

Cons: Parking

Eh, I'm not the biggest fan. Just because they're vegan doesn't make them tasty--I feel like they have to find workarounds for the elements that usually make donuts good and the flavor and texture definitely suffer. The chocolate is particularly atrocious--if I'm going to let myself eat a chocolate donut, I want it to be chocolate overload, not a strange, unsatisfying flavor vaguely reminiscent of sawdust. If you do get one, the cinnamon's the best of all.

Pros: Friendly, serve yerba mate

Cons: Don't like the donuts

If you want a cool coffee shop atmosphere with great people, I recommend Mighty-O. The servers seem to work hard and care about the customer. I must say, I don't get that feeling often at coffee shops in Seattle. It's not just a donut shop! Go in this place to chill and grab coffee/espresso and a treat too.

My boyfriend and I made the mistake of getting here too late in the afternoon and there weren't many choices left. Still, the donuts we had were really good, and they didn't make me as sick as ordinary donuts do. I would definitely go to Mighty O again.

Pros: Yummy donuts

Cons: Closes early

I just moved right next to this place and it has the best donuts ever....not a huge variety, but that doesn't matter when what they have is that good. Very creative with some of their varities. The Don King was my favorite... I had no idea it was a vegan place. Maybe I'll become Vegan and eat nothing but these donuts.

The best vegan donuts ever! I even have friends who refuse to eat anything vegan who I tricked into eating a Mighty-O and they loved it. Everyone shoud try it. They have tons of different kinds of donuts and all of them are good.

A variety of flavors, and less sweet than typical donuts (e.g. Krispy Kreme). I was surprised to find out that they are actually vegan. Even if you are not vegan (I'm not either), you would enjoy these yummy donuts. I usually grab a few different flavors of their mini donuts.
