Dang Good Donuts Is Already Blowing Up Near Yonge and Eglinton
A vibrant new lime-green donut shop quietly opened in midtown and immediately earned near-perfect reviews.
There's a new donut shop in midtown Toronto, and it's already making noise among people who know where to find it.
Dang Good Donuts opened earlier this month at the corner of Yonge and Castlefield in a conspicuously lime-green storefront that you really can't miss once you know it's there. The shop is still technically in soft-opening mode, but it's already amassed a 4.9-star rating on Google across 86 reviews—a strong signal that people are taking this seriously.
The concise menu divides into three categories: originals, specialty, and "bougee," with flavours ranging from cinnamon sugar and strawberry cheesecake to Dubai chocolate. Each is designed to be indulgent without pretension—the kind of donut you don't feel guilty eating at any hour. Early reviewers are calling them some of the best in Toronto, which is no small claim in a city with a thriving donut scene anchored by long-beloved spots like Better Days.
The timing is interesting. Dang Good Donuts arrived as Montreal's Homie's Donuts was also expanding into Scarborough, signaling renewed energy in the artisanal donut category. Toronto's always had strong donut culture—the rise of light, fluffy, genuinely well-made versions over the mass-produced standard has created real demand. Dang Good seems to be hitting that sweet spot: quality execution, neighborhood accessibility, and the kind of Instagram-worthy aesthetic (lime-green storefront, Dubai chocolate, bougee branding) that gets people talking on social.
