Their website says: Don't ask for sprinkles, don't ask for cream filled and for goodness sakes, don't forget to eat as many as you can in the summer because Britt's is only open during the tourist season. This boardwalk doughnut shop (voted second in the nation for small town doughnut shops) located on the boardwalk of Carolina Beach only has one type of doughnut: glazed. As a doughnut purest, this was great news. They do one thing and they do it really well. We ordered a dozen donuts and a round of coffees and watched as the donuts were dropped into a large vat of frying oil and then removed to cool. After that, they were placed on a large spindle and dipped in Britt's famous doughnut glaze. From there, they were hung up to dry. Not long after that they arrived on the counter in a wax paper bag along with sheets of wax paper to use as a utensil while eating. A big help given the amount of fresh grease on the doughnuts. Not a bad thing. The decor was exactly what I expected. It could have at one time been a gas station or even a car repair garage. Now, it is a doughnut mecca. A place of worship for doughnut lovers. These doughnuts melt in your mouth. They make Krispy Kreme taste like store bought donuts at best. I consumed 3 while I was there and now I'm staring at the dozen I bought to take home. My stomach wants more. This may be the best doughnut experience I've had to date. That says a lot given my affinity for doughnuts from a young age. I highly recommend this place. It's the best doughnut you'll ever eat in 100 degree heat. Check them out here:
