Express Donuts is a straightforward, no-frills donut shop tucked into a shopping center on W McDowell Rd in Goodyear. Its appeal comes from consistently fresh, well-made donuts and a few standout items like the small apple fritters and ham & cheese croissants with a jalapeño kick — a savory option that locals tend to mention alongside the classic sweet treats.

Regulars often stop by for their morning pick-me-up or to grab a box for office breaks. The shop leans into quality over extravagance, with a modest setup and genuinely friendly staff who make the quick visit pleasant without any fuss. During holidays and weekends, the place can fill up early as people come in search of their favorite donuts, so arriving before mid-morning is a good call.

Alongside the donuts, the coffee and smoothie options add a little extra: the Thai iced tea boba smoothies bring a refreshing, slightly unusual twist that fits nicely into Arizona’s warmer climate and the local fondness for cold drinks. There’s also a loyalty program that rewards smoothie and specialty drink fans, making it a great spot for those who want a sweet treat with their caffeine fix.

Express Donuts fits into daily routines for families, office workers, and anyone who appreciates simple but well-executed pastries without the line or wait of bigger chains. The atmosphere is casual and practical — it’s the kind of place where locals quietly know they can count on fresh, tasty donuts paired with lightly sweetened coffee or a cool smoothie when the desert sun is beating down.

Best donuts in the West Valley! Always fresh, large selection, and kind employees. They also have the best ham and cheese croissants with jalapeño that you’ll ever taste. Some donuts have an extra charge large the large apple fritter, eclair, and the maple donut with bacon but the quality is excellent. My favorites are the eclair, apple fritter, and Bavarian cream. Also reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

I saw this place on Google Reviews the other day and didn't realize it was there - so close to my house! I dropped in to check it out and it is a keeper!! I had my favorite (of course!) Buttermilk donut and it was moist and fresh and totally delicious! Will definitely come back!

Express Donuts: Maple Bacon Bar ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars - It's the only acceptable way to consume a pig for breakfast. I want to personally thank the mad genius who invented this donut. They should be awarded a Nobel Prize, or at least a lifetime supply of these Maple Bacon Bars. This is not some delicate dessert. This is a full-contact breakfast experience. The donut base is soft, springy, and so fresh it feels like it was baked by tiny, enthusiastic sugar sprites. The maple glaze is aggressive and perfect. Forget those lazy donuts with two flimsy strips of bacon draped over them like they're trying to look fancy. NO. This donut is a maple-glazed battlefield of glorious, chopped-up bacon shrapnel! Every single bite delivers a chunky, salty, crunchy explosion of real pork. It's like they took a whole pan of perfectly crisp bacon, pulverized it with a hammer, and then showered this donut with the delicious carnage. I tried to share it. I held out the box, looked into my spouse's eyes, and then quickly snatched it back, mumbling something about "quality control." They understood. This donut turns friends into enemies and diets into forgotten history. If the world ends, I hope I have one of these. It's truly a thing of salty, sweet, chopped-up beauty. Buy it. Buy two. Hide the second one.
