The best thing about it is the variety, they make donuts that you would not think about, like key lime filled. Not the best donut shop but the best in Panama City.

You will not be disappointed with the donuts at Thomas Donuts. We went to get a dozen and take back to the condo and the line was 10 people deep at 8:30a in the morning. We went to get a dozen but with all the flavors ended up with 2 dozen. They are simply amazing.

Sinful...but worth each and every calorie! Friendly, clean, and great variety. A Must and worth the drive when in the panhandle area.

The restaurant is a little shack on the side of the road. It is only open from 6AM-3PM. It is well worth the hour wait for the doughnuts. They are the best doughnuts I have eaten. They are made fresh daily. The filling is delicious and not too sweet; the flavors include: apple, raspberry, strawberry, blueberry, key lime pie. custard,... More

Found this place by accident when leaving Panama City Beach on the way to Destin. Saw lots of people gathered around and large queues so decided to stop and see what all the fuss was about. So glad we did, the doughnuts were perfect and so many to choose from. We had homemade biscuits with sausage, bacon, egg and cheese,... More

I'm still waiting for my food, which I'm sure will be OK. Problem is I've been here an hour. Finally placed an order and paid, and the chick had the nerve to say it would be a while for a Pepsi and mountain dew. Don't waste your morning. Go to McDonald's.

Comfortable snack shop atmosphere serving yummy homemade donuts and entrees like BLT, burgers, pizza etc. looks like a family owned mom and pop business with down to earth really nice people serving/running the place. I can see why lines are long for the donuts, they are yummy! We didn't have a long line while there but business was very steady.... More
