Best Donuts! They keep it simple and they have perfected the glazed donut. Try to it just one. Lol

When at the Boardwalk, try the world famous Brits Donuts. Handmade like they always were.

Believe me when I say that it's worth the wait in the always-present line to get an authentic, warm Britt's donut. Not for the calorie conscious (LOL)

2 Britt's Donuts and a glass of milk! You'll get a sugar buzz but it's worth it once a year. Britt's has been on the Boardwalk for a very long time in the same family. It's a tradition.

Awesome donuts! Absolutely delicious! You may have to wait in line sometimes but is so worth it!

Best donuts imaginable! They make them as you order them so they are insanely fresh. Eat them right away, they are not meant to be saved for later but I do recommend you take your bag of donuts to the beach and eat them enjoying the beautiful view and North Carolina weather.

Plan a day trip to Southport for lunch and shopping, ferry to Fort Fisher, visit the aquarium, visit the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, and a must have visit to the famous Britt's Donut Shop. Bet you can't eat just one! Enjoy world famous clam chowder at Michael's Restaurant.

Famous for fresh cooked donuts made right before your eyes! Get a fresh hot donut, nothing fancy just a yummy glazed donut as fresh as they come.

Part of the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, they've made themselves famous with just 1 donut! There's something about being at the beach with a warm fresh donut that makes life extra sweet. Make sure to visit them early to avoid the lines.

A classic family friendly donut shop for breakfast before hitting the beach for the day. Affordable and a hot spot for tourist!

Lines are long, but it's worth the wait. Britt's has been around for years and they only make glazed donuts. You watch them make them and get them hot! Yum!

Britt's Doughnuts are amazing and one of a kind. Bring Cash and do not be intimidated by the line, it usually moves quickly.

Stopped by here for the first time after a visit to the Aquarium in Fort Fisher. These donuts are like the best little funnel cake you've ever had. All we could talk about on the way home, as we inhaled 2-3 a piece, was the donut. We waxed poetic about how the irregular shape allowed for pleasant variations of flavor and sweetness that you don't find with other perfectly round donuts. I can't wait to go back next year!

OMG - one of the top things to do while in Carolina Beach - historical landmark and donuts that are so good!
