Winchells Donuts in Wallingford are pretty tasty. I admit I've never tried top pot or mighty o's, but I know they beat the hell out of krispy kreme.

WTF - a doughnut off HEY MAN - Get a life! Try a beer off of something less further down on the 'waste of time' ladder. http://www.oregonbrewfest.com/

Mighty-O is wonderful and deserves all the raves because: The doughnuts are not too greasy like Top Pot's They are vegan, organic, all natural, have no trans-fats AND are still as good or better than other doughnuts when it comes to taste, texture, and variety. If only they had maple bars. Sigh.

I agree, I want to see a rematch with the mini doughnuts from that stand in Pike Place Market included. I LOVE those little guys! Especially the cinnamon ones. They are always piping hot and you get to watch them be created on machine called the DONUT ROBOT. And it is more fun to eat a bag of mini doughnuts than just one doughnut, I think.

Tim Horton honey crullers. That my friend, is manna from heaven. I think there needs to be a rematch with more shops thrown in the mix.

I, too, admit to being a Top Pot snob; however, they are not as accessible as I would like. Nor are the other donut shops accessible, actually. I'd like to see an escalation of donut options in this waterside shanty-town of ours. At the risk of shameless self-promotion, I propose a Tim Horton's invasion.
