Rise Doughnut

I love donuts and we were are traveling somewhere, I always look to see if there is a local place to try. Rise has a 4.8 on Google so I was psyched and ready to have an amazing experience. The place is tiny and tucked out of the way in the little Wilton center with a sign on the building that blends in so much that it's very difficult to see. I walked in and the place was cute and not too crowded. There are no menus or signage anywhere, but rather a hand written sign on the counter with the days donut flavors written on it. This was my first time there and I assume she could tell that, but offered no help in figuring out the flavors, the prices, etc. I would have gladly accepted the help. The donuts are pricey at $4+ each. I did not know that and ordered way too many. The best item we orde

Without a doubt, the best apple fritter I've ever had. It's moist, has big chunks of apple, is well fried, has plenty of glaze, etc. I would highly recommend getting a couple. The other donuts are fine, but the fritter is the star. If you're within a reasonable distance or a fritter fan then it's worth the drive. The prices are on the higher side, but I happily would pay for that fritter again without blinking an eye. The service is quick and polite. The whole store is on the small side, so don't be surprised if it gets crowded quickly. Parking is limited out front, but there's a lot next door if needed. Check it out!

I drove 45 minutes to Rise Doughnuts after seeing them featured on a local Instagram page—I had to try their infamous Apple Fritters! They weren’t on the menu today, but I was still able to get some truly unique “sourdough” donuts to nosh on! Starting first with the atmosphere, the building is small and has a few parking spots directly outside the entrance. There’s a small shared lot to the left, so parking was a breeze. Inside, the shop was PACKED, with a line wrapped around the restaurant. Seating is minimal with what seemed like one communal table. I loved getting a peek at the donuts being made and the display counter was easily visible. While the donuts looked delectable, I would have liked the donuts to be labeled, as opposed to just a menu with the names. I also didn’t like that

Outstanding donuts—some of the best I’ve had. FOOD The donuts are exceptional. We visited on a Saturday about an hour before closing, and they were still turning out fresh, warm donuts—an absolute game changer. Served warm and freshly glazed, the texture and flavor really shine. We tried the brown butter vanilla bean, chocolate with sea salt, banana foster, and Aztec cinnamon. The brown butter vanilla bean stood out as the clear favorite, though all were well executed; the cinnamon was the least compelling of the group but still enjoyable. AMBIANCE & SERVICE A charming, cozy space with seating and a warm, inviting atmosphere. You can watch the donuts being made in the back, which adds to the experience as they come out freshly glazed. Despite a long line and steady crowds, the staff rema

One-hundred-percent as good as people say it is - fluffy, fresh, warm, nonstop delicious doughnuts that are the best around in CT and Westchester and likely NYC. Love the chocolate buttercream the most with chocolate crumble on top, delicious vanilla bean too, but really every doughnut is top-notch and creative, and their daily new menu of flavors makes this spot irresistible. 5 stars!!!!
