This was the first time I had ever been in there, and I was delightfully impressed. The staff was friendly, and they had a very wide selection of donuts, including some very unique ones (blueberry crisp!). The one I got (Bavarian cream filled) was very soft and fresh. My only complaint was how much powdered sugar there was on it, but that has become almost unavoidable at any donut shop. I absolutely recommend them, and I will definitely be back.
My brain was running on empty after driving from Grays Harbor down to Salem. I keep a pretty healthy diet these days, but when I drove past Daylight Donuts I had to hit the block and carb up. I wish I had taken some pictures, their selection is mind bending. So many choices, so much original creations.
The man working the counter checked in the back when I asked for a Custard Bismarck and delivered. He beared with me while I went through the dizzy array of fried goodness.
I had a Fried Buttermilk, the Custard Bismarck and the deep fried Cinnamon Roll. Daylight Donuts.. you guys seriously know your business.
If you are local, consider yourself blessed. If you happen to be going to or through Salem, it is just a few blocks from the highway; you won't be disappointed.
It would be worth another trip down to Salem just to spend time there at Daylight's and explore their menu further.
