Wish they were better - Edit
The donuts are fine. I tried some from the Manhattan location a couple of years ago and didn't love them, so I went straight to the source in Brooklyn. Still not great. They're fine, but even Voodoo Donuts makes a consistently superior product. Charming location though.

Friendly staff - Edit
We visited here twice and both times were great. The guy on the till even gave us a free doughnut once so that was awesome. The doughnuts were nice, and a good price. They seem to change the flavours around. They also serve ice cream and drinks but we didn't try any.

Delectable Doughnuts - Edit
I would first like to take the time to applaud this joint for spelling "doughnut" correctly. The 3 Little Birds ice cream they serve is beyond yummy, and the doughnuts taste like the highbrow version of a local store. Though they don't have the fried effect of an old-fashioned doughnut, they are delectable in their own, fancy right.

I take long drives for these doughnuts - Edit
This is my first time at the Brooklyn location and I love the space and the variety of donuts!! The iced coffee was perfect! Strong without being bitter and the doughnuts were super fresh and amazing. Th french toast donut is a must have!! Chocolate frosted with peanuts is another awesome one. I love the classic flavors too! Jelly, glazed, chocolate frosted are also really tasty!! Totally worth driving from Westchester to Brooklyn!! They also have soft serve and scoopable ice cream from three little birds (which is amazing)
Read morePros: Great flavor options , They have ice cream!! , Really awesome iced coffee

Pretty good donuts, I've had better at various Whole Foods but I loved the variety of flavors and it even impressed my omni boyfriend so I'll definitely stop again for dessert the next time I go to Champs.

Yummy Donuts - Edit
It was great to find a vegan donut shop that my milk allergic daughter could eat while visiting Brooklyn. It's hard to find a place that serves sweet baked goods that are safe for her especially away from home. She really enjoyed these donuts!

Yuuummmm - Edit
After a rather disappointing lunch experience nearby, this place saved the day! The Boston cream donut was amazing and I stuffed it into my face so fast I wish I had gotten several. I also had the maple-glazed donut, which was delightful. Will come back and eat inside, next time. Great atmosphere, lovely staff-and deliciousness! Thanks Dun-Well D!

Okay doughnuts, nice shop - Edit
The shop had a nice vibe and is just opposite Champs Diner. The person working there was nice enough but not overly friendly.
Read moreThe doughnuts themselves were okay, but ones I've had elsewhere were a lot better. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back, but if I was in the area I would go for a fresh doughnut.
Cons: Location

wow wow wow - Edit
This place is great! The doughnuts were amazing, lighter and tastier than a non vegan option of yore. Reinforcing the idea that really everything can be made at least as amazing in vegan. The ambiance is great and there is plenty of space for all. They have plenty of coffee and ice cream options that I will definitely be trying at my next stop. My favorite were the PBJ and the Homer!
Read morePros: delicious, light
Cons: so good you can't just eat one!!

O-K Donuts - Edit
The doughnuts aren't bad, just not really feeling them as much as I'd like to. The shop is pretty empty & cold but overall a cute place. Just wish the doughnuts were tastier & a little less sweet.

The mother ship - Edit
After trying the shop in Manhattan I just had to make the trek out to the main store in Brooklyn. My efforts were rewarded. This shop is actually a cafe with take out and so is much larger than the satellite shop in the East Village. Additionally, the doughnut selection is larger and perhaps a bit fresher. They also offer hot and cold beverages and vegan gelato. A wonderful spot for vegan indulgence. I hope to see more shops opening around the city soon!
Read morePros: All vegan menu, Ample seating and chill vibe, Great location

Love this little shop - Edit
We were in this beautiful city during 4th of July and got hungry. Actually we wanted to try out a different vegan restaurant but they were closed. So very hangry we walked and walked on our way to the east river for the fireworks when I suddenly noticed this little doughnut shop on the right in just the same street. I read about this already on social media and I was like "vegan heaven sent you!!!!". Literally! The girl with the tattoos was the cutest person I met and she gave me so many New Yorker vegan insider tipps I will need to check out the next time.
Read moreI have to admit I am not a doughnut lover actually. But I was hungry and curious. So I ordered the three minis and a peanut butter ice cream.
OMG!!! This ice cream is just delicious!!!! I love it!
There was another girl in the store and she told me she is thrilled about the mini homer doughnut - pink sugar with sprinkles. I didn't like it at all. Way too sweet and artificial for me, but hey even vegans have different kind of taste. But as a non doughnut fan I still liked the mini cinnamon and the mini chocolate. My favorite is still the ice cream though :-) will come back next time definitely!
By the way, in my view the area there just reminds me so much of Berlin. It could be some place in Friedrichshain or Kreuzberg.
Pros: owner is the nicest person, ice-cream!!!, Berlin style

An easy five stars. - Edit
There's a reason Dun-well is so popular, it's AMAZING. The donuts are fresh and the flavours are inventive and fun. My wife surprised me with the Homer donut for my birthday last week and it was the highlight of my day.
Read moreVegan donuts are often cake-style which are good, but Dun-well offers the light, fluffy donuts that you can easily eat 3 or 4 of (well, I can).
Pros: Wide selection of fresh, fun donuts, ALL THOSE DONUTS, Did I mention the delicious donuts?

Well done Dun-well - Edit
Quite good donuts, though we didn't get to try many flavors since we visited just before closing on a Sunday evening. The chocolate & maple topped doughnuts were very tasty, fluffy & moist. Even good the next day. Not the best I've had, but definitely in the top five.
Read moreFriendly service. Cute retro feel to the place. On street parking, not a problem because of the lateness of the day. Bike racks outside.
No public bathroom, though; downer to the visit, especially since we drove over after having spent most of the day at the Smorgasburg event at Prospect Park. Looking forward to my next visit to NY, & trying more of their flavors.
Pros: 100% vegan, Tasty food, Friendly staff
Cons: No public bathrooms
