This place has a fantastic vibe and even better donuts! I'm pretty sure the regulars never leave but I will drive across the city to support a place like this over and over again.

Step 1. Take 5 minutes to stop in. You'll notice a strong police presence in this establishment which speaks volumes about the quality of the donuts. Another plus is given the location you'll feel safe. The staff is patient and polite like a great family. Why does all this matter because the donuts are BY FAR THE BEST IN THE CITY. Selection alone will keep you busy for those 5 minutes trying to pick out what you want from the massive selection. Tims tastes artificial compared to this place. Treat yourself!!!

Amazing donuts. Have been twice in the last week since we discovered them. Their cream supreme is delicious. Nothing too fancy which makes them even better. Will be trying their breakfast and other food!

Great donuts and people. However they are doing NOTHING right now in prevention that I saw. Employee not wearing masks. No visible sanitizing after customers at counter. Very disappointed they are not following any guidelines. I was wearing my mask and had sanitizer. Won't be going back.

Came here at 9pm on a Saturday night for donuts ......all the way from the south side ;) Definitely a hidden gem here! Bought a dozen donuts for $16.75ish. The honey glazed is comparable to the krispy kreme's honey glazed/original. The other donuts are excellent too! Best donuts in the city!

Take 5 should not have been as big a part of my young adulthood as it was, and still continues to be. I've mostly lived in the neighourhood over the last 8 years and have frequented Take 5 during my time living nearby. It has a specialness that not even the hippest of cafe's can compete with.It's quiet, there's no music playing, you just hear the chatter of the regulars drinking their 5th refill. The donuts are fresh and their flavours are balanced perfectly. There's even something charming about their average tasting soup, and their sandwiches which feel like they came out of the best selling cookbook from 1985. Leon works tirelessly, and it shows in their service, food quality and atmosphere. He makes everyone feel welcome like they have a place to belong. There are times where I drive by at 11 PM, and he's sitting there talking with one of the locals. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Took my family by this morning on a recommendation from a friend. We each ordered a donut and we're very impressed with the quality, freshness and flavor. The donuts a simple, not as extravagant as some of the donut specialty shops in town but the flavors were incredible and the donut itself soft and delicious. The price was also very reasonable at 8.50 a half dozen. Definitely worth paying a bit extra to get the bump in quality from say a Timmy's.

Are you looking for a fresh doughnut and a good coffee? So you found the right place. The dough is very fluffy and light and it is not too sweet. 4 doughnuts, 1 coffee, 1 cookie and 1 chicken soup later l can affirm that l will be back soon. Friendly staff and very cheap price.

This location reminds me of Robin's Donuts back in the 80s and 90s. The donuts are freshly made and they taste good. Even after two days old, they still taste good. A dozen donuts cost $13 and the price is not bad. This location doesnt sell just donuts. They have soups, sandwiches, muffins, turnovers and cesar salad. The staff is kind and friendly. I would come back soon.

This place is an Edmonton institution and they produce my favorite donuts in the city. The donuts are fresh, just the right amount of sweet, and they have a wide variety of delicious options. This place has a warm, old-school vibe and has been around for many years. The service and the products are excellent. You've been to all the typical trendy areas in Edmonton, but have you had a donut and a coffee at 10 AM at Take 5? Love this place.

For the life of me, I can’t understand why this place isn’t more on the public radar for a great donut. I understand the place is not the prettiest but they make great donuts and you should go have one, or a dozen, as their prices are very reasonable for a scratch donut. Let’s get them more business, as places like this are rare and we need more of them.

I checked out the donuts at Take 5 on the recommendation from a co-worker. The donuts are extremely tasty and have a great flavour. Not doughy or heavy at all. They are also quite reasonably priced ($8.50 for a half dozen) compared to other donut shops aside from Tim Horton's, but I'd rather a but more for a good quality donut. Too bad that there aren't more locations around though. We'll just have to make the stop when we're in the area, but it's definitely worth the trip!

Only a family could put this much care and love into what is made. Don't let the basic interior fool you. This place survives because of the quality of the product. Way better than Tim Horton's any day!
