Holey Moley, we’ve found Sydney’s best donuts!

Over the years, the humble donut has gone from strength to scrumptious strength, welcoming unique flavour combinations and tasty transformations. 

Currently, Philip Joseph Santoro holds the world record for the fastest time to eat a jam donut with no hands, in 11.41 seconds, according to the Guinness World Book of Records.

No matter how you like to eat yours, the team at The Macleay Hotel won't judge, instead, we'll send you off from your Sydney city accommodation to find Sydney's best donuts.

Mug Life

What could be better than burgers, shakes and donuts? Why, all of these tasty treats being just a ten minute walk away from your Potts Point hotel of course! Mug Life is a fairly new addition to this south-west Sydney suburb and one that happens to serve up some of Sydney's best donuts. Mug Life sell 14 different yet equally delicious doughy morsels by the team behind Dr. Dough Donuts. Enjoy the likes of cherry sundae and strawberry Freddo, with new, equally-scrumptious additions added to the menu every week!

Milky Lane

Who said doughnuts have to be sugar-coated? Give your sweet tooth a break with Milky Lane's mac n cheese variety. Sniff out this cheesy treat just off Campbell Parade after completing the infamous Coogee to Bondi walk. Already known for their OTT burgers and crazy cocktails (Hershey's cookies and cream cocktail – need we say more?), the mac n cheese donuts are the latest addition to the cheat day menu.

Shortstop Donuts & Coffee

After a day of exploring some of Sydney's top tourist attractions such as the Queen Victoria Building and Darling Harbour, be sure to make a pit stop at Shortstop Donuts + Coffee – just half an hour away on the bus from The Macleay Hotel. In pop culture, donuts and coffee go hand in hand for a reason and Shortstop is a prime example of why. Find a rotating menu of incredible flavour combinations such as pandan & coconut sugar cream and pumpkin pie – yes please!

With so many doughy delights on the doorstep of your centrally located Sydney city accommodation, eat easy knowing that we're only a roll home away!
