North Lime Coffee & Donuts - Clays Mill

The donuts are some of the best in Lexington. You can’t go wrong with one of the classics and the fun flavors are usually delicious too! Their pickup system has been really slow (had to wait close to 20 mins past my pickup time), so you might just want to walk up and order.

Very busy place. Line moved slower than it should IMO. The donut was good, very small compared to example at counter. It was a Peach fritter and had a real Peach flavor. Though for price and size would expect peach pieces in the donut. Latte was okay, again separate wait time for drink. This kept people in constant flow pattern near the counter.

I absolutely LOVE this local donut shop. I'm so thankful to have this location so close to home and work. They have delicious doughnuts and coffee (my favorite treat is the iced caramel macchiato). During COVID they have smart and effective distancing procedures in place with marked areas to stand outside and great curbside service. Their special doughnuts are excellent and fun to look forward to as well.

I been here several times and many of these times they were closed so hours are not really conducive to afternoon coffee drinkers and staff is not friendly. I have to give two stars for their lack of friendliness and limited open hours though coffee and most times donuts are good. Last time I went and last I will go they would not take that extra effort and make me a coffee just as they were closing at a very early time of 1PM. For coffee so many other just as good or better places that are also friendly and are open longer.

Not a very welcoming place. I’ve went back because the donuts are great (if you get fresh ones), but the person up front makes me feel like I’m bothering her. I don’t like feeling rushed when there isn’t even a line behind me, especially when you’re paying what they charge for donuts. Ask questions... you just get made to feel stupid. I think this trip did it for me, I’m done.

Great Local Business. Donuts are fabulous! My favorite is the Funnel Cake Donut, I even think theirs at this location is better than the location downtown. Plenty of parking. Great Friendly Staff.

2/7/19 Update: I no longer live near this location and went across town this morning and wanted to stop by and get some donuts for my coworkers. I felt unappreciated by the girl taking my order. She never said anything when I said thank you multiple times when she took my order, when I paid or when I got my donuts. I use to love this location but now I don't know if I'll come back to this one.

You guys have some quality coffee, but it’s too acidic to go well with donuts, but maybe that works for you since you, respectfully, don’t seem to know how to make donuts. All donuts have a certain quality that yours lack completely.
I would suggest you take a field trip to Franks a few blocks over for an example of what a real donut tastes like, because theirs could be improved upon but you are far enough off the mark I’d not call what I got here donuts.

The Donuts are some of the best that I have ever had! I was surprised by the quality of the coffee as well, and it pairs perfectly with donuts. The staff is very laid back and friendly, I can't wait to come back.

First timer but would definitely go back. Some of the best donuts we've had

This more-suburban location lacks some of the charm of their original location downtown but makes up for that with sheer excellent service. There's plenty of room to spread out and work on your laptop (if you are willing to risk donut glaze flakes getting in your keyboard). The donuts are my favorite in the whole world, I still haven't found any other place as good as North Lime. The coffee is also amazingly delicious. If you haven't been here you should go right now!
