Having been fancying a posh vegan…

Having been fancying a posh vegan doughnut for weeks, we suddenly remembered 'Planet Doughnut'. Seeing that there were no shops near us..omg they do delivery.
We ordered a pick your own box of 6. Wow what can I say..delivered nice and early the next day, beautifully packed. And I didn't realise what a wonderful sight 6 large doughnuts in a box was!!
Tasted fantastic looked fantastic. Well worth the money and I will definitely be ordering more.

Birthday gift for those who have everything!

Lovely products - helpful staff when I couldn’t add information to the website.
Website isn’t the easiest when trying to add a gift card etc so that was much appreciated
Vegan is starting to dominate the range - so be careful it doesn’t become off putting.
Gift was very well received and they said they were amazing and all got eaten, so I guess that’s a really good sign!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. I'm really sorry to hear that your doughnuts arrived stale on this occasion – that’s definitely not the experience we want for our customers.

All our doughnuts are freshly made and dispatched on a next-day delivery service to ensure they arrive in the best possible condition, so it's disappointing to hear that this wasn’t the case for you.

I’ve had a look and I’m unable to find an email from you regarding this issue, but if you’d be happy to get in touch directly, we’d love the opportunity to make things right. Your support means a lot to us, and we’d really appreciate the chance to restore your confidence in our service.

Disappointing Service and Mishandled Food Delivery

I was excited to order from this bakery but had an incredibly disappointing experience with Planet Doughnut’s delivery process and customer service. My order, intended as a gift for my mum, was left with a neighbor without my consent, despite me clearly stating multiple times that no one would be available to receive it. This unauthorized decision disregarded my instructions and left me with no way to access the delivery. I would have greatly preferred if the order had been returned to the shop, giving me the option to either request a refund or change the delivery address.

For a food delivery, this is especially unacceptable. Perishable items cannot be collected at any time, making the choice to leave them with a neighbor both impractical and careless. I was not even provided with contact details for the neighbor, leaving the doughnuts to go to waste or be thrown away.

The delivery policies on their website are unclear and confusing. I believed I was choosing next-day delivery, only to later discover specific days are excluded—information buried in small grey font in “add note” box during checkout; and in order confirmation (after payment!) email which I haven’t read on time to cancel the order.

Customer service was unhelpful, refusing to offer a refund or a proper resolution despite their mishandling of the delivery. I now cannot change the delivery address or contact the neighbor to let them know they can use or dispose of the items. My money has essentially gone to waste.

I wouldn’t recommend ordering from this company unless you’re prepared for unclear policies, zero flexibility, and poor handling of customer concerns.

I am sorry to hear that, despite our daily email correspondence last week, there is still some confusion regarding our delivery policies.

As outlined clearly in our initial response, an alternative address can be provided after the doughnuts have been shipped, however this must be done directly through FEDEX and would take 24 hours. As this was not done before the doughnuts were delivered, FEDEX left the doughnuts in a place they deemed safe, which was a neighbour. This policy is standard procedure and is also detailed in our terms and conditions.

Once again, I would like to reiterate that we have followed all delivery procedures as outlined throughout the ordering process and communicated them at each step.

As a gesture of goodwill, we did provide you with a discount code for your next order.

Thank you for your feedback — we really appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience. I’m so sorry to hear that the doughnuts arrived stale this time. That’s certainly not the standard we aim for.

All of our doughnuts are made fresh and sent via next-day delivery, so they should have reached you in perfect condition.

I’ve checked our inbox but haven’t been able to find an email from you about this — if you’re able to get in touch, we’d be more than happy to look into it further and make it right.

Thanks again for your support — we hope to have the chance to serve you better in the future.

Fantastic service!

Very easy website to navigate, really clear allergen advice. The doughnuts arrived on time and wee well packaged, absolutely delicious. My daughter is so happy with them, taken them in to share with her friends on their last day before exam leave. Would absolutely purchase again, no hesitations. Thank you.
