Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew at Disney Springs full review and reasons why you'll want to add it to your list for your next Walt Disney World Visit.

Full Review and What To Expect at Everglazed 

Forget the diet! Happiness, donuts and coffee go hand in hand. Lucky for us, Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew is now open in Orlando. With a tagline like “Happiness Glazed Here” they’re ready to bring us to our happy place with scrumptious donuts, iced coffees and more.

We definitely need more smiles in our lives right now. A few bites and sips and guaranteed you’ll be smiling – even laughing – in no time. Blame the sugar high. (I did!)

“All your worries go away when you have a donut in your hand. Donuts make people happy.”

– Mike Crave, Everglazed
Go Epicurista with Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew at Disney Springs
Happiness Found!

I was invited to a media preview of Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew a few days after their opening on January 6th to get a first look. They’re still tweaking some things and adapting to the strong demand (over 1,500 donuts sold per day on their first 2 days!) All opinions shared here are my own. As you know, I only share with you experiences and products I love to inspire you to go #MakeSomedayHappen one delicious bite, sip and trip at a time. 

Let’s dig in!

Where To Find Epic Donuts at Disney?

Looking to satisfy your donut cravings at Disney? While you can find epic cupcakes galore around Disney and they just landed the best cookies on the planet with local Gideon’s Bakehouse, Everglazed fills the need for over the top donuts in the Walt Disney World Resort.

Just head to Disney Springs West Side. You’ll find Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew right next to Splitsville Luxury Lanes, off the west entrance and exit of the Orange Parking Garage. (Note this access point is currently not used as an entrance due to Disney’s increased health & safety measures and controlled entrance checkpoints.)

Look for this bright colored window!

Time To Make The Donuts.

Stand at the window and watch the gorgeous cake and yeast donuts made fresh from scratch. They’re glazed and decorated with all sorts of sweet toppings in the open kitchen right before your eyes. Then step around the corner and inside to choose your fresh treat.

Gorgeous Donuts made every day, all day!

Everglazed is the first foray into quick service from the owners of Splitsville. It’s “Florida Born and Glazed” so you’ll have to come to Orlando to enjoy because you can’t find Everglazed Donuts anywhere else in the world!

Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew at Disney Springs full review and reasons why you'll want to add it to your list for your next Walt Disney World Visit.

Donuts are made fresh daily in limited quantities, so get there early. Orders are limited to 2 dozen per person to make sure everyone can get their hands on these sweet creations.

But don’t worry. If you want donuts for breakfast, or breakfast for dinner, the full menu including donuts and breakfast sandwiches (more about those in a bit!) are available all day. Current hours are 9am – 10pm but be sure to check schedules online for any changes.

This meaty Maple Double Bacon donut could be dinner!

Classic and Instagrammable.

If you’re a fan of classics, check out “The New Classics” on the menu. Of course there’s glazed and chocolate iced, vanilla and strawberry with sprinkles.

My advice is go bold when you visit Everglazed Donuts. The Blueberry Cake, a favorite for Managing Director Mike Crave, has received rave reviews for its classic cake texture and nuanced flavor. I will be trying that one on my next visit. 

The vibrant Purple Glazed Ube (pronounced ooh-beh) – made with the Philippine purple sweet potato – was my favorite in the classic category. Not quite “classic”, it’s more hipster with a dense pillowy texture, vegan glaze and glittery sugar topping. Compared to the other more over the top decadent creations you can say it’s got a classic simple elegance. It’s also quite Instagrammable, completely vegan, and less sweet than the others.

Look at that color. No filter!

Happiness For Cereal Lovers. 

Kids, and kids at heart, who love sugary cereals will absolutely scream for the cereal topped donuts and cereal flavored milks on the menu. You’ll find Fruity Pebbles and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Both tasted just how you might remember enjoying a bowl and slurping the leftover sweet milk while watching Saturday morning cartoons. (I know, I’m dating myself here.)

Cereal in donut form!

Fruity Pebbles has a light strawberry flavor from the strawberry icing and is fully coated with the colorful cereal. The cereal was crunchy too which was a nice surprise. A winner!

If you love cinnamon, you’ll swoon for the Cinnamon Toast Crunch. A cinnamon iced donut topped with a generous mound of cream cheese frosting, Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal and cinnamon sugar. Cinnamony goodness!

Say Hello To The Funky Bunch at Everglazed Donuts

Marky Mark would approve of this sweet Funky Bunch! In this collection you’ll find donuts topped with your favorite candy bars, cookies and decadent flavor combos. 

For Oreo fans, get the Oreo Supreme, featuring a vanilla iced donut topped with crushed Oreos, vanilla frosting and an Oreo cookie. This one was quite sweet and was more cream than cookie with the flavor of the famous cookie filling being predominant. I would have liked more of the chocolate cookie notes.

Mounds Coconut Dream is for the coconut lovers! A coconut almond iced donut topped with toasted coconut, chopped Mounds, cream cheese frosting and a drizzle of vanilla icing. Loved the toasted coconut on top. This one was dreamy. A drizzle of dark chocolate on top may have put it over the top for me!

Mounds Coconut Dream!

If you think Nutella is the best spread ever! the Nutella Bella is filled with loads of Nutella cream and topped with chocolate icing and chopped hazelnuts. This was the only Funky Bunch I didn’t get to try so it’s on my list for the next visit. I love cream filled donuts.

The Most Epic Flavor Combos

If, like me, you think chocolate and peanut butter is the best flavor combo ever, then don’t miss the Peanut Butter Explosion. A chocolate iced donut topped with peanut butter chips, crushed Reese’s Cups, a huge dollop of chocolate peanut butter frosting and a whole Reeses Cup on top. Peanut butter flavors were just as predominant as the chocolate which was wonderful. This is more dessert than breakfast, it’s pure decadence and no surprise it’s a top seller.

You can also get this donut paired with a Reese’s Nitro – a nitro cold brew concoction with peanut butter and vanilla syrup, chocolate drizzle and crushed Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.  I loved the nitro cold brew but next time will ask to dial down the amount of syrup. For reference comparison, I normally do this at Starbucks also. I like to taste the coffee more than the syrups. 

Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew at Disney Springs full review and reasons why you'll want to add it to your list for your next Walt Disney World Visit.

For an epic flavor combo, get the Maple Double Bacon. My top favorite donut of the day! A maple iced donut loaded with crispy candied bacon. The bacon was perfectly meaty and had great texture. The saltiness nicely contrasted the sweet maple flavor.  

Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew at Disney Springs full review and reasons why you'll want to add it to your list for your next Walt Disney World Visit.
I tried one little piece and then promptly had another and another… it was tough to put down this bacon sweet salty flavor bomb!

The Managing Director shared they are meticulous about wanting to offer the best donuts around, so don’t be afraid to share your feedback with them if something isn’t quite right. Case in point, when they realized the bacon was making the donut soggy, one of the pastry chefs came up with the brilliant idea of making candied bacon instead. Who doesn’t like candied bacon? Truly a brilliant move.

Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew at Disney Springs full review and reasons why you'll want to add it to your list for your next Walt Disney World Visit.
Look at all that candied bacon!

Get Caffeinated with Cold Brew & Coffee at Everglazed!

Take your pick of cold brew or nitro iced coffee to turbo charge your day. Add your choice of milk, creams, sweeteners and syrups. Everglazed offers whole, skim, soy and oat milk and all the popular flavors of syrups such as salted caramel, white chocolate, vanilla, hazelnut, cinnamon bun and peppermint.

Create your own or choose a Cold Brew Classic creation. I normally drink vanilla lattes so I chose the Vanilla Hazelnut Cold Brew. It was a winning combo. Next time as I mentioned above, I will ask for less syrups to tone down the level of sweetness. That’s just my preference. I think anyone who loves those sweet coffee drinks at other national chains would really like this one.

Spiked Coffee Cocktails, Because Why Not.

While on vacation, there are no rules. If you want a little something something to boost your coffee in the morning, Everglazed serves up cold brews blended with wine based cordials for a unique coffee cocktail. They are lower in alcohol but provide the flavors you expect in rum, amaretto and other popular spirits.

Choose from Strawberry Mocha with rum cordial, Mochalada Mudslide with rum and chocolate cordials and pina colada mix. Spiked Cinnamon Toast with Irish Cream and Cinnamon cordials. Little Italy with Amaretto cordial and wedding cookie crumble (sounds yummy!). Or the house favorite Glazed & Confused with rum, vanilla and coffee syrups topped with a Maple Double Bacon Donut. (I’m definitely ordering this one next time!)

The Biggest Surprise On The Menu: The Sandwiches!

While Everglazed Donuts is undoubtedly tailor made for those with a sweet tooth, the biggest surprise on the menu are their savory options. The sandwiches do have a touch of sweetness as they’re served on a deliciously soft and lightly toasted sweet bun. And if you truly can’t resist the donuts, level up by subbing the bread for a griddled glazed donut for $1 more. 

The Breakfast Sammie, reminiscent of what you’d get at a breakfast diner, with two fried eggs topped with American cheese and your choice of bacon or chicken sausage was beautifully executed. I got it with crispy bacon. It’s available for breakfast all day long. There aren’t many options for quick serve breakfast at Disney Springs so this is a great choice.

This was so nice and cheesy too!

The Funky Chicken with a perfectly crispy yet juicy fried chicken breast topped with tangy ranch slaw, a drizzle of BBQ sauce, (not so) spicy mayo and B&B pickles was so good I didn’t want to share it. I would have added more hot sauce because I’m a fan of everything spicy. But this sandwich was packed with flavor. The biggest surprise of the day!

Other sandwich options include The B&G Burger,  Classic Egg & Cheese, and The Grilled Cheeeeeeese with oodles of cheese! Pair sandwiches with loaded waffle fries topped with chili, queso, bacon, scallions, cilantro and sour cream.

Where To Enjoy Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brews

Wondering where to enjoy your Everglazed creations? After you pick up your items at the counter, there are a few tables inside but it’s one of the socially distanced tables in their outdoor “donut garden” you’ll want to snag. It’s a cute area with “grass” and twinkling lights. And once the renovations at Splitsville across the way are complete, it will be much more lively.

A treat with a waterfront view!

Or, if you prefer a more open, relaxing and socially distanced spot, head over to the West Side Dock area behind House of Blues. It’s right by the water and quite peaceful, especially early mornings. Picnic perfect.

Our “Picnic” is Ready!

Everglazed is Made for Sharing! 

Everglazed donuts are pretty big. In fact, normal donuts can be 3 to 3.5 inches. At Everglazed they’re 4.5 inches and built really high! Sandwiches are also quite filling and coffees are 16 – 24oz. While prices are on the higher end compared to your typical Krispy Kreme or Dunkin Donuts, the menu items are big enough to share (whether you want to or not is another story!)

Sharing is caring!

Donuts range in price from $4.50-$5.50, sandwiches are $6-$13. Save $3 on half dozen and $6 on a dozen donuts. Get a variety, cut them up and share.

Half a Dozen Donuts = Lots of Smiles!

Dessert For Breakfast. Any Time.

The donuts at Everglazed, especially The Funky Bunch creations, are more dessert than breakfast. Enjoy one after lunch or dinner or as a snack to power your strolling around Disney Springs. And do get some to take back home or to your hotel room. I was so pleasantly surprised the donut’s texture held up very nicely the next day.

Expect Everglazed Donuts to add new seasonal flavors for special events and holidays. As they’re still in the opening phase, menu items may be tweaked so the pictures and menu shown above is subject to change. The good news is you can see the product before you buy it so go ahead and eat with your eyes!

Positive Community Impact.

In addition to the surprising explosion of flavors, the best surprise was the positive community impact. It’s wonderful to see businesses, especially food businesses in the attractions area, opening in the midst of this pandemic. It gives me hope we will soon see more visitors safely enjoying Orlando.

Everglazed and their parent company, Millennium Restaurant Group, are committed to providing a great product for locals and visitors to enjoy. Their goal is to “stay safe and keep moving forward”. In addition to Everglazed they’re in the process of expanding Splitsville and opened a new restaurant, JOTORO in Tampa.

Adding jobs in the community is a big deal, especially with the high number of layoffs in our area due to the reduced number of visitors and events. Everglazed was able to hire some of the Disney pastry chefs who had been laid off, so you know your donuts are made by talented pros who know how to bring you magic.

So far, Everglazed has added 45 jobs but that could grow based on the demand they’ve already seen, which exceeded expectations. 

That’s something to be really happy about! 

What You Need To Know About Disney Safety Before You Go.

Disney Springs is still following strict health and safety guidelines. All visitors are required to go through a security and temperature screening check point in the parking lot. It is recommended to arrive early as parking lots have been known to reach capacity, especially on weekends. Once the parking garages are full, guests will no longer be able to park and visit Disney Springs.

Masks and appropriate face coverings are required at all times, unless you are stationary while eating and drinking. So no walking around while blissfully sipping away on your cold brew.

Lastly, social distancing markers are found on the floor in any areas where cues are required, such as standing in line at Everglazed. So don’t let your daydreaming excitement for these treats get in the way of paying attention to the markers to keep your distance from others in line.

Health and Safety Guidelines To Follow

How To Order Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew?

Currently guests will stand in a socially distanced line outside and be allowed into the store as capacity allows to pick up your order. You can scan the menu QR code with your smartphone so you can plan your order before you get to the counter. A virtual cue and mobile ordering is in the works and should be introduced soon.

🍦 “Eat Ice Cream For Breakfast Day” was created in 2013 in honor of Malia Grace, by her mom and aunt after she lost her battle with cancer in 2010. Malia Grace loved ice cream and her family wanted to commemorate her birthday, 2/18, in a way that would be fitting for her. During her wish trip at Give Kids The World, she had the opportunity to eat ice cream for breakfast and it was a highlight of the family’s experience. 
🌎 Give Kids The World Village is an 89-acre, whimsical nonprofit in Central Florida that provides critically ill children and their families with magical week-long wish vacations at no cost. Every wish family is treated to accommodations, transportation, donated theme park tickets, all meals and snacks, nightly entertainment, and more. Since 1986, Give Kids The World has welcomed more than 182,000 families from all 50 states and 76 countries.
Stop by Kelly’s and pick up these awesome flavors! But, regardless of where you are, Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast in honor of Malia, and raise awareness for those who battle childhood cancer. 💛

💜 Feeling the lavender haze... One of my favori 💜 Feeling the lavender haze... One of my favorite foodie experiences of 2022 was dining at Salt & The Cellar by Michelin Chef Akira Back and spending the night at the new @ettehotel - a gorgeous boutique hotel with impeccable attention to detail! I even got to meet @chefakiraback 
So excited I’m going back tonight to check out their new Lipa Rooftop Bar & Restaurant and have reservations for Afternoon Tea next month! 
Add a visit to ette hotel to your Foodie Bucket List for 2023! 
A few favorites from my last visit:
🍸 Fantastic Zero-Proof Cocktails by @jarldevries: It’s Dry January all year long! Featured first is The Kraken, a gorgeous purple cocktail made with Butterfly Pea Flower Tea & Champagne Vinegar
✨ Toro Tartare: A gorgeous board with fatty tuna and accompaniments
✨ Akira Back Tuna Pizza: his famous dish is a Must Eat! 
✨ Spinach Oshitashi Salad: the most gorgeous salad I’ve ever seen! 
✨ NY Strip with Wasabi Kizami Butter, Chimichurri Sauce, & choice of gourmet salts. Amazing! Loved that Espresso salt
✨ Miso Black Cod, yuzu air, pickled cauliflower 
✨ Togarashi Fries & Kimchi Brussels
✨ Dessert: Yuzu Curd and Chocolate in a Cup
☕️ “Where The Cloud Ends” Zero-Proof espresso martini with Yuzu Tonic, Lemon Cordial, Espresso, 0% Coffee Liquor
💜 The lobby decor with lavender and green touches was dreamy.
🧺 They have a Laundry Museum! 
📕 The Book Room features incredible books. The giant picture book requires gloves to review as it is one of a few in the world! 
The hotel is focused on wellness and offers Wellness Suites completely equipped with a full gym!

Don’t let the casual vibe at @jujubysusuru fool Don’t let the casual vibe at @jujubysusuru fool you. The Kappo Bar Omakase experience with Chef Lewis Lin is out of this world (& Michelin-worthy!)
“irasshaimase / come in!” is what you hear first upon entering this revamped Pizza Hut building off Colonial Drive. Everyone is welcome at Juju, one of Orlando’s newest restaurants and one that belongs on every #OrlandoFoodie bucket list! 
I was invited to experience their Kappo Bar and it checked all the boxes for a truly amazing #MakeSomedayHappen experience.
The retro Japanese izakaya-style restaurant serves up a 10-course menu at the bar and a more casual a la carte menu in the dining room. 
Omakase menu changes regularly but always features the five primary cooking techniques (grilling, steaming, frying, simmering, and raw) using local and imported ingredients, in-house dry-aged fish, and binchotan charcoal-fired dishes. Everything is prepared right in front of you for an immersive experience.
And, Don’t miss the fun cocktails! I loved “That Old Pizza Hut” was like an orange creamsicle with Suntory Toki Whiskey served in a Pizza Hut cup! 
Make reservations and go check this Orlando restaurant off your bucket list.
Thank you Chef Lewis and Mai for your outstanding hospitality. I’ll be coming back soon!

Hello 2023! Why start the year on a diet? My new y Hello 2023! Why start the year on a diet? My new year’s resolution is to focus on self-care.  Eating healthy and exercising, sure. But also treating myself to more @gideonsbakehouse cookies, cakes & cold brews. Who’s with me? What will you treat yourself with this year?
You want something. Go Get It. Period!
This was my last purchase of 12/31/22... I wanted to start 2023 on a sweet note!
What if my 2023 resolution is to visit Gideon’s every month for their awesome limited-edition treats? 
I think that’s a resolution I can keep!  January’s Butterscotch flavors sound to die for.
Did you hear? The epic Banana Bread Chocolate Chip cookie is now part of the permanent lineup. While the Coffee Cake is my all-time favorite, this one is in the top 3! And, the original Peanut Butter Cold Brew is a must pairing.
What resolution will you set today? Go #MakeSomedayHappen 🎉 Happy New Year everyone!
