Someone recently asked me, "I can't find your review of Mojo Donuts, where is it?" It was then that it suddenly dawned on me, I've never written about it. How the fuck did that even happen? I guess I was too busy deep-throating bacon logs to notice. Since it opened a few months back, I've been there several dozen times. I've smuggled these donuts all the way to Jacksonville to share with friends and I've brought one of my friends to the brink of gestational diabeetus because of this place.

At this point, I've pretty much had 99% of the donuts they offer here. They offer cake donuts (rich and dense) and yeast donuts (light and fluffy), I tend to prefer the yeast donuts. There are some donuts I love more than others. My absolute favorites include the original glazed, guava and cheese, bacon log, crème brulee, peanut butter and jelly, Tahitian vanilla with peanuts, fruity pebbles donut, peanut butter cup and a recent no-name creation that consisted of dulce de leche, peanuts and chocolate drizzle. Their red velvet is on the fence, the cake itself tastes great, but it's in desperate need of more cream cheese frosting.
Original Glazed |
Guava & Cheese |
Crème Brulee, yes that is crunchy caramelized sugar all over the top. |
Maple Bacon log |
Chocolate Peanut Butter cup |
Peanut Butter and Jelly |
No-name clusterfuck of delicious. Dulce De Leche, peanuts and chocolate drizzle. |
Red Velvet |
They also make a couple non-donut pastries, including an apple fritter and a cinnamon bun. Both are great, but my personal favorite is the cinnamon bun.

Donuts I'm not crazy about include the 420 donut (snickers, potato sticks and chocolate #TremendoArrozConMango), Key Lime Pie donut, Almond Joy and their Tiramisu donut. Surprisingly, I don't like the nutella and bacon donut either. Which is very uncharacteristic for me since I normally meringue my pants at the mere sight of bacon and/or nutella separately. Something about the combination of the two just doesn't do it for me. Now don't get me wrong, the donuts mentioned here aren't bad and are a million times better than anything DD or Krispy Kreme has to offer. They're just not as good as the ones listed above, in my opinion.

Key Lime Pie Donut |
Tiramisu Donut |
Almond Joy Donut |
Nutella and Bacon |
They make a delicious hot chocolate and offer a few different coffee options (cappuccino, latte, frozen coffee dranks etc..) I usually go with a regular self serve cup of plain coffee
Hot Chocolate |
Now here are some pro-tips: get here early as fuck! This place opens at 6am and closes when they sell out. On the weekends that typically means 12pm-1pm. Mondays and Fridays are usually busier in the morning than Tuesday - Thursday.
