COPS

My favourite donut shop in the city, and conveniently in the heart of Riverside! Each week, they have their classic flavours of Sour Cream Glazed and Powdered Cinnamon always available, and a limited flavour! It’s always so fun to come in each week and see what the new flavour is. They make each order fresh after you’ve paid, and the interior is spacious and vibrant. Would highly recommend!

Great spot in the Riverside neighborhood I had a half dozen the OG Glazed. Came to $6.25 + tax. They were like warm fluffy sweet pancakes. So sweet and yummy. Maybe a bit too sweet, but I enjoyed them.

COPS Doughnuts is a vibe! The doughnuts are melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and the flavors are insanely good. The whole place has a cool, laid-back energy that makes you want to stay. Perfect for a quick treat or to satisfy your sweet cravings. Definitely worth the hype!

One thing for certain and two things are for sure, COPS will and has always been a positive vibe. While the parking situation isn’t the best, the dessert and exceptional customer service more than makes up for it. This is a treat that makes sense to have almost every time we are downtown Toronto. We always have their staples — the OG and Cinnamon along with the weekly feature and we are impressed every single time.

Amazing donuts. I wish I got a pic of them before but you can see how much we enjoyed… 😂 not your typical crispy donut, but a soft, fluffy version you never knew you needed. I’ll take these over a regular donut any day. Had the weekly special, caramel apple streusel, and cinnamon sugar, both of which were great, but the OG sour cream was my favourite by far. Service was great; super quick to get hot donuts.

COPS Donuts never fails to impress. The menu is small but mighty! This week's featured glazed is Banana Cream Pie, and it was surprisingly delicious! I'm not a fan of banana flavour so that's saying something. Everything was made fresh. Every time I go, the staff bless me with a sample and, today, a half dozen extra birthday cake flavour. They are very generous. I asked for ice water and they gave me a cup so I didn't have to buy bottled. Top notch service always. Atmosphere is chill and decor is industrial. It's in a great location. Highly recommend for a sweet treat.

Stumbling upon a place with a Michelin star always sets the bar high, so when we came across this cozy donut shop, we were brimming with anticipation. The staff greeted us with such warmth that it felt like walking into a friend’s kitchen rather than a business with accolades. The place has a bare-bones charm, with seating that’s sparse but thoughtful, offering a bench and a couple of seats by the window—perfect for a quick sweet treat rather than a long sit-down. We didn’t have to wait long; our donuts were served up swiftly, a pleasing start. The sour cream donut had a tangy richness that I enjoyed, but as some of the reviews had cautioned, the texture was a little too doughy for my taste. The softness wasn’t quite what I expected from a donut, lacking that slight crispness on the outside. And the cinnamon—while I’m sure it’s a hit with some—wasn't really to my liking. It overpowered rather than complemented. The shop itself had an understated decor, with a modern industrial vibe and neatly displayed coffee bags promising a gourmet experience. Even without plush seating or lavish interiors, the simplicity of the place had its own appeal. It was a quick stop, a chance to grab a bite and appreciate the straightforward pleasure of good service and simple surroundings. Would I return? Maybe, to give another flavor a chance, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. This spot is worth trying at least once if you're nearby and curious about what a Michelin-recognized donut tastes like.

Best eaten while it’s hot. Unfortunately, I had a box to go and the donuts were soggy after an hour. They were almost like cake! The Cinnamon Sugar was very good. Having a mix of flavours balances each other. For me, the weekly featured Chamomile lemon went well with the regular flavours. Definitely must try!

Magic. Out of this world... Simply heavenly doughnuts. If you can go there and have them right away after they are freshly made... They are even better. Right out of the fryer, there's a thin crispy outer layer, then a cakier doughy zone, before you're finally in a soft custardy centre. All that texture coated in ample sweetness not to disappoint the child in you. My eyes rolled into the back of my head. I'm not kidding...

Something keeps me coming back to cops. Is it the delicious and soft dough ? Is it the new and amazing flavours ? Is it how nice the staff is? I don't know, but I'll keep coming back for more. I'm obsessed.

These donuts are super yummy and dangerous, they are so small you can't help but eat so many of them. They are also the perfect thing to bring to a party, potluck or big gathering. They come in 2 regular flavours OG Glaze and Cinnamon and also 1 special flavour that rotates every week, that is made fresh to order.

I will never not be obsessed with cops and as of recently wait times have decreased which makes ordering that much more convenient as I'm not a fan of their site. Service was great and the donuts tasted fresh and delicious as usual.

Soft fluffy pillow dreams. This is what donuts should taste like. U got it all here at cops. It's my fav indulgence any time of day. I like the special collab flavors they have. I'm a purist so just simple keeps me happy and they offer the basic cinnamon sugar or glazed. The glazed selection rotates so it's pretty unique.

Love these doughnuts! Made fresh to order, unique flavour each month, do wish they had more flavours to choose from on a regular basis, but they still taste fantastic. They aren't too sweet and the doughnuts are so so soft. Great to share with others.

Can't go wrong with these mini hot fresh out of the oven donuts. I'm loving the glaze of the month, rose hibiscus. The store looks really cool too. Waited at least 20 minutes when I ordered in store so I'd advise to order in advance if you can.

Same great doughnuts, relocated in a more 'visible' part of Riverside. Doughnuts come in three flavours: cinnamon sugar, OG sour cream, and a weekly feature. And I've yet to have a flavour I don't like!

Two stars for the great food, and no stars for the staff and rudeness. The donuts are absolutely fantastic, but the service itself must improve. At first I thought it was just a one off but I've gone to this location several times and I found a staff to be abrupt and rude. All I had was a question of how come they can only make half the donut plane and the other half not plane. What I want. It was just 10 plain donuts and the other 40 with cinnamon. The person that was assisting in the back she snarled at me, "It's a rule!" I replied "Oh, I understand it's a rule, but what's the reason for the rule?" She rudely snarled, "It's just a rule!" so in order not to get into confrontation I took my donuts and left. This is the last time I'm going to this location!
