Happy Dough Lucky

We absolutely loved this place! You can really feel how much love and heart has been put into it. The guy who made our donuts (maybe the owner?) was so nice, and the lady at the register was super sweet too. They even offered a toy for our dog, which was such a thoughtful touch! The mini donuts were insanely good, so tasty! We're definitely coming back!

I came here with my best friend and my two boys for the first time on may 18, 2025. The people were incredible, hands down the best customer service I had ever experienced. They were amazing with my boys and my boys loved them. Emily and Laurie are absolutely fantastic. Going to make this a weekly outing with the family ??

Flatbreads and desserts made with love!! Mini donuts you're sure to find one or many you'll love! What a unique atmosphere and check out these magnificent treats!!!! This is a must stop, welcoming place!!! ??

We had a family baby shower here. Andrew was so responsive and helpful. The atmosphere was fun and very inviting with arcade games and assorted pizzas, drinks and great donuts. Great for family gatherings or just stopping by for some fun.

Great venue for a gathering. Held my sister?s baby shower there. Andrew and staff were very kind and accommodating of our needs. We had a great time!

One of the neatest little donut kitchen & donut restaurant ever seen. Also, I was short on money cuz I had never been before,, so the staff comped me some really yummy warm cinnamon sugar bite donuts. Really unique, creative tiny Bay View ?shop local? store. Love their name and wouldn't be surprised if one day they became a chain restaurant because they are so hip, yummy, creative, and delightfully stimulating. Good for a date, family outing, or a nice walk alone on a hungry Saturday morning!

Happy Dough Lucky is the fun gem of Bay View! I stopped in there finally and I was amazed by the decor, retro arcades, and pinball machines. The arcades are 50 cents and pinball machines are $1. I took some time to look around after gaming. There's mini figurines and cards to purchase and mini prize machines by the restroom. I ordered the mixed 12 donuts, they were very good and ate them all. I love that there's Etch-A-Sketches on the bar table and it's good for being creative drawing something while waitin

First time there was excellent. Owner was personable and cordial. Second time there was ok. Owner was not present, his mother was working the register. The donut machine was having issues, she did not know how to fix. I got a weak coffee and donut balls. Whatever, it happens. Third experience was awful. Came with a business partner and planned to enjoy donuts during the two of ours discussion. I made a mistake reading their irregular and odd business hours and showed up a bit early. Was told we co

I didn't do my research when I visited this place. Let's just say I didn't read... My expectations were of average size donuts and that they are not. These are mini donuts and imo on the pricier side. They are very pretty and delicious if you go for the specialty ones. As long as you are aware of that, then I would definitely recommend them. The owner was a super cool man and provided great customer service. @happydoughlucky is located in the artistic neighborhood of bayview, so their theme and aestheti

Maybe I am being harsh since we came their first week open, but? service was extremely slow and we arrived before the rush! 25 min for a 12 pack of their cinnamon sugar and only 6 custom. Feels off to me. However, they did come fresh and ready to eat. The coffee on the other hand was like warm at best, and no water station for the sugar bomb that arrived upon consumption. The atmosphere was fun, but no music throughout to drown out the pinball machines? would have been nice to hear some tunes too. I wil

The donuts are pretty good, and the atmosphere is fun. Be sure to bring quarters if you want to use the arcade machines. A small coffee was $3.50, which felt overpriced, especially since it didn't taste good. I'd recommend sticking to the donuts.

One of the coolest places I've ever been. The doughnuts were absolutely DELICIOUS!! The owner was such an awesome person and made a lot of the incredible decor himself! We stayed and played a few games before heading home to watch the Bucks game. I took a video and sent it to everyone in my contact list. I highly recommend and we will be back very soon, before next week;)

If you aren't happy the second you enter the door then walk yourself right back out. The decor is pure nostalgia and I could have happily spent an hour there just playing games and reliving my childhood without ever ordering any food. Their simple donuts are dangerous and i could eat an entire tub of them so it's good they aren't all you can eat. Their gourmet mini donuts are absolutely insane and tasted delicious. But they are SO SUGARY which you should be able to guess that based off what they look like.

An amazing find! Family-owned, welcoming, quirky little spot. It's a perfect spot to take friends from out of town & all ages welcome. These doughnuts were some of the best and innovative I've ever had. I can't wait to see what else they do in the future.

The old school arcade is like a dozen great games that takes me back to the days of sneaking into the Red Carpet when I was a kid. Plus, the doughnuts are awesome and the kid loves both the games and the food. Great way to spend an hour or two!

Loved the brightness that Happy Dough Lucky brings to the market. It was our first time visiting this location, but we have had their donuts at their food truck when it's been out & about. They have a large selection of donuts with toppings. But also, they have classic cinnamon and sugar coated donuts which I loved too.

Go get some! The donuts were delicious with so many flavors everyone leaves happy. It was so fun to spending immersed in the space playing games. A family owned business I'm happy to support! The service was top notch!

We loved our experience here! Walked in while waiting for our Chinese food and what a great decision it was. Emily was fabulous and made us feel like fast friends. Recommended great donuts which were all delicious. The atmosphere is incredible too. We hope to become regular customers!

Took my two kids, they accidentally missed our order. But made it right quickly. Staff was super friendly and my daughter had so much fun playing pinball. Donuts were great too!!!

Wonderful doughnut shop! The atmosphere complements the product they provide! What a fun and interesting shop! If you're in the Milwaukee area it is a must stop! Andrew, the owner is a wonderful human that loves good community and it shows!

Super fun, the arcade is awesome. Was surprised how good the loaded donuts were! Yum!

Calling all 80s and 90s kids!!! You need to bring all of your friends to this amazing, nostalgic spot. Super unique and enticing establishment. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. They offer food as well so get your butt over here!

This place is so cool! Packed full of bright and colorful toys/video games. A whole line of pinball machines! The donuts were cute and made fresh. Definitely a great place to take kids.

Not only were the donuts amazing but the staff were super sweet and the whole place was nostalgic! Lots of old school pinball machines, arcade games and little knick knacks from the 90s/2000s.

Had to try their popular loaded mini doughnuts. Can't get fresher than these donuts! They have another spot opening soon in Bay View.

They were delicious, everyone enjoyed them! The nutella w/ banana, peach cobbler and chocolate peanut butter loaded mini doughnuts were my Favorites!!! Thank you for being flexible/accommodating as well! Update 2024: They moved into an atmosphere that suits them well. Still very delicious, very great people, they truly turned around my birthday! I love the new apple crunch, blueberry cheesecake and rasberry nutella ??. Thank you again for always being wonderful!!!

Idk why this place is rated so high. its a complete mess. you get 6 bites for 10$!! the size of the donuts is just a joke. and the flavors are not that good too. the only thing is that the worker there is nice. but im not going there for nice workers only, the product needs to make sense. not going there again.

This is a must try in Milwaukee. So fun, and delicious!! The games are reasonably priced and the pull tabs are everyone?s favorite!! Excellent, fast service and incredible options!

Now pizza and alcohol, heck yeah! Great spot for the kiddos and great spot for a late night adult drinks too!

The atmosphere here was so cool! There are many arcade games to play and they have a pretty good sized menu. The donuts were amazing!! I highly recommend this place :)

Hands down the best mini donuts & strawberry lemonade in town! They have a lot of mini donuts to choose from. All made fresh! Family friendly spot. They also sell smash burgers but that's for me to try another day. 10/10 highly recommend.

Staff was super cool. Love the pinball machines. Will definitely be back.

Cool place, great donuts, great service. It's a place where you can just take a break and feel nice and cozy. Also, they were super nice and threw in a few extra for me close to closing. Will definitely be back.

Stopped in with my son and had a great time! Service was amazing and my 3 year old loved it in there. He crushed 6 cinnamon sugars and I brought home a specialty 6 pack and they are so tasty!!!! Can't wait to go back ??

It's a must see!!!!!!! Super cool place to visit. The doughnuts are absolutely incredible. Fresh hot goodness made to order!!!!!!

The service was wonderful, they were so nice and very welcoming!!! Good vibes and family owned, love, love, loved it!!!! DEFINITELY WORTH THE TRIP AND DEFINITELY MY NEW SWEET TOOTH SPOT!!!! ~Demo??????

Super friendly staff and SUCH good pillowy, hot donuts. The texture was soo on point. They also offer catering for events. That could be a cool idea.

I really wanted to like this place but at the end of the day it's just not worth it for the price. The atmosphere is cool but the price for mini donuts was weirdly high. The donuts were pretty good but nothing special and certainly not all that unique. I love the idea of games and donuts but there just isn't enough there to keep me long enough to play the games. I really wish they had regular donuts and maybe like drinks besides just coffee. I was there right after they opened and it may be different now b

We got 12 specialty donuts; blueberry cheesecake, a honey one I can't remember, smores and dirt cup. I wish we would've taken a picture but we inhaled them so quickly after buying them! Super delicious! The owner was so sweet! Gave us a couple of sugar cinnamon donuts while we waited. My friend swallowed funny and started coughing up a storm and he offered a water bottle immediately. Would recommend to anyone 10/10. They cater events and I will definitely be using their services in the future!!

Was here about a week ago, stumbled upon the place on my walk to the bus with a friend, and we were immediately drawn in by the fun atmosphere we could see through the window. When we came in we were greeted immediately and were walked through ordering and even got some recommendations. The doughnuts were amazing, we got a Nutella + bannana one and the puppy chow wow, they were crispy and fresh. Next time ill order more for myself haha. The cashier was very friendly, me and my friend had a very lovely con

A nice place located in Bayview. It's very 80s/90s inspired with toys, old school board games, and arcades. The iced coffee and donuts ?? were good. Speaking of the donuts they are not your typical donuts. They come in so many different flavors. Definitely a nice spot for a chill date night or with friends.

It's a very cute place for a date or just to start your morning, The atmosphere and vibe is very nice. It's pretty much an 80s/90s child?s dream bedroom. The fresh donuts are delicious. I do wish there were a few options for more traditional donuts but the small wacky variants are interesting in their own rights. I'd also like to see them eventually grow to have more coffee options but for what it is it is a very cute lil shop and people should try it at least once

Donuts were just okay. The service/professionalism is what really got me. We had chatted with an employee about having their donut cart at an event, and they promised to reach out with details. It's a cool concept, should they actually follow through. Weeks went by with no email, so I reached out again through their contact page for events, and still no response. Not sure how they run a business without following up or responding to leads. Strange.

The place is awesome! The art and aesthetic is fun and really thoughtful. The donuts were great and love the size so you can try more! The best part was how friendly and caring the staff is! MJ made friends with my son who waved at her for the FIRST time ever! She was my instant best friend! We will be back for donuts, great people and pinball! ??

I wish i took pictures. I can't attest to taste much as I ordered the loaded 24 mini donuts for teachers appreciation week. But while we were waiting, we were given a little sample of their mini powder donuts. Totally unexpected and the gesture earned for a return very soon. The kids really appreciated it and they tasted fresh and so good! Service is phenomenal. Very friendly staff. She made her suggestions as I was clueless on what to order as to their many varieties on the menu. We will definitely be back

Best mini doughnut place in Milwaukee, the video game atmosphere and retro art is so worth it

This place is awesome! The donuts are sooo yummy and the 80's nostalgia is a vibe. 10 out of 10 recommend.

Such a cute donut spot! This had so many fun vintage toys and games and the mom, Laurie, and the son, Andrew, were so welcoming and friendly. The donuts had so many different flavors and the lemonade was so refreshing. A great place to visit in Milwaukee!

We walked in after a meal to play some pinball and had such a wonderful time. The Honeybear dinky donuts are so tasty and also love the classic cinnamon sugar donuts too. The small size is a perfect bite of dessert and allows you to try multiple flavors. Also absolutely love the 80s/90s pinball and arcade machines. Fun atmosphere and super friendly hosts! Thank you and we'll be back soon

This is the friendliest family own business I've ever been to and a must go. The owner Andrew and his sister Emily gave us free donuts to go and a free toy, and let the kiddo build onto the Lego wall. The shop is truly something spectacular and an art piece. They are so friendly and kind and embody service. Please help support this cool and quirky local business!

Such a cute family run donut shop with the coolest decor and plenty of classic arcade games. It was like stepping into the a scene from the 80s and of course the donuts are delicious! What impressed me most was how friendly and kind the owners were - great vibes!

The hours aren't consistent. Everytime I go it's closed and I've wasted a lot of time making the trip over, only to be disappointed. The website, google and the printed sign all have different times.

Stopped in for the first time with my dad and it was a great atmosphere. Great pinball games and a few other retro arcade games and the lady who took our order was super friendly and made sure that we were having a great time.

Made fresh to order, owner/server was super friendly, answered any and all questions. A bit pricey and not super fast. But it's custom and delicious. We recommend and we will be back.

First time visiting with the family. Atmosphere is super fun, so much to look at and play with and retro toys available for purchase! Emily was super dope! Funny, was great with my little girls, helpful with us deciding, and fun conversation. Donuts were delicious We will definitely be back!

My husband and I visited for the first time while on vacation this past week we each ordered a six-pack of the specialty donuts. They offer so many flavors there really is something for everyone. We enjoyed them so much we came back on the last day of our vacation we stopped back to pick up a six-pack for each of our family members back home. The first day we met the owner who was extremely kind and helpful. He even gave us a sample while we waited for our order and give us stickers for our kids back home.

Amazing donuts and amazing service! Andrew was amazing to me and my family the whole time was there. He made the environment nice and welcoming. There were so many options for entertainment; arcade games, board games, grab games, etc. Will definitely be returning there again in the future!

What a fun time for adults and kids alike! The doughnuts were SO yummy and the atmosphere is really fun! Friendly and helpful employees who were so patient as we struggled to decide which doughnuts to try (they ALL looked SO good, it was a tough call). The coffee and lemonade was also great! We can't wait to stop back in!

EMM was great to talk to you! The donuts were fresh and fantastic! Enthusiastic about the future of this place! Come get some nostalgia and sweets!

As a X'r I have to say this place is nostalgia at its finest! Lil mini donuts new cute w/creative flavor toppings but nothing overly spectacular for the price.

UPDATE Since we had lunch in the area we decided to walk over to Happy Dough Lucky (again) and see if it was open, and it was! The kids were pumped! The place is filled with decorations that are nostalgic and bright. There are many donuts to choose from, video games to play, and the staff is friendly. The kids (ages 5, 5, 12) wanted to play video games so we used the convenient coin machine so they would have quarters to play. They have PacMan, a few pinball machines, and a few crane games. While the

Great price for a delicious bite!!! The texture was amazing, fluffy and light with an even sweeter choice of toppings. Highly recommend the Blueberry Cheesecake, Chocolate Peanut butter Cup, and the Cup of Dirt mini donuts!

Super cool place to eat or drink with plenty of things to keep you busy! Staff was super friendly and we had a great experience

How are there not more locations!? If ever within a 50 mile radius. Do yourselves a favor and stop in and grab ALL the flavors. WOW! Uh. Maze. Zing! I'm from Chicago and I've gotta say there is nothing like this place in my city. Milwaukee area I'm jealous. Well done.

Amazing doughnuts and good service! I tried the powdered donuts and cinnamon sugar donuts, both were nice and warm and yummy! The cashier up front was very friendly.

This is a great small place. We came in during their soft open, because the windows drew us. We weren't sure about the cost to value ratio, but seriously, the donuts were amazing! They just have coffee to drink now but plan to expand that area of the menu. I had the Cookie Monster, the nutter butter, and the yabba dabba do donuts. Tiny little donuts that are super fluffy and light. Not overly filling! I'll be coming back often!

Only issue we had was that we were looking for doughnuts and online these look like regular sized and delicious. But? when we got there the word ?mini? is added to the signage and the doughnuts were about the size of a half dollar. Tastes great but deceiving and a little pricy.

Fun atmosphere (nostalgic) with great customer service. Yummy donuts

It's as delicious as it is cool looking. New favorite spot in Bay View

Let's update my review after the owner's response below. We cancelled 6 days prior to the wedding when we had heard NOTHING from the owner after trying every way possible. What were we to think? Our only concern was our daughter's wedding and needing a dessert option. The only response we received was when we told him we were moving forward with Contact6. He even stated "he understood our concerns" and would willfully refunded the deposit monies. No threats, just a statement. We are not at fault in t

I was required to click on one star to have my review posted. I would give this company 0 stars. We contracted them for our daughter's wedding which was held 9/22/23. Paid a large deposit. Tried for weeks leading up to the wedding to reach them using every platform available. SIX days before the wedding they finally responded when we threatened Contact6. We were scrambling to find another dessert vendor (Jandy's BaseCamp was fabulous!), cancelled Happy Dough Lucky and asked for our deposit back due to

I went yesterday and LOVED it! The quality was great and the different flavors were so cool and creative. The service was wonderful and the owner was very sweet. My dog devoured a couple of plain ones that he was nice enough to give me for her. Next time I'm in town I'll definitely be stopping in!

Was a great experience! Doughnuts were creative and fun. The decor is fantastic~ fun and nostalgic. Belle was such a huge help while we were there and went above and beyond to help us!

First time in today with my daughter and loved everything about it. All flavors we tried were great but the original is truly the best! Great atmosphere, will be back!

Super dope decoration, dope lil donut shop. Owner is super cool. Donuts are made to order and they have so many good flavors to choose from ?? accidental find but im glad I walked in, definitely coming back!

My son and I had a great time! The service was amazing and my son had a great birthday breakfast! The man who helped us was so nice and my son loved the conversation. 10/10 would recommend to all my friends!

We got donuts to go and they were fantastic. We got Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Nutella banana, Reese?s, and birthday cake. All were fantastic. Two people can definitely share one set of six.

My wife and I catered Happy Dough Lucky for our wedding reception at the beginning of April, and it was amazing! We received so many compliments from our guests. We went with the Cinnamon Roll, Strawberry Shortcake, Apple Pie, and Oreo flavors. The donuts were all great! If you are catering for any sort of event, you CAN NOT go wrong with Happy Dough Lucky.

We hired Happy Dough Lucky for our dessert option at our wedding (October 28th). I called the store and talked with Andrew to setup the tasting to pick out our 4 loaded options, about a month prior to the date. From there Andrew and I kept in touch via text/call to coordinate day of logistics with our venue and his team (arrival time, space to setup, day of contact, etc.). We had no issues with them at our reception, his team of two was so nice and professional and so so many of our guests raved about how g

Visited for the first time with my boyfriend, it was amazing experience and the little donuts were awesome and amazing! Definitely going to have to come there for a sit down experience next time! 100% recommend!

What an amazing place! Loved the atmosphere, coffee, and doughnuts. So incredibly good.

I am not one to write reviews, but I felt it was important to share for anyone looking to collaborate or hire Happy Dough Lucky's food truck. I booked them for two separate corporate events, scheduled months apart from one another. The first date scheduled, the truck didn't show up. I tried calling them, no one picked up. Eventually the owner contact through email saying that their truck was sideswiped and sent a photo showing the damages. The photo was dated from 2022. I let the owner know we had to cance

We hired Happy Dough Lucky for our late-night dessert for our wedding. About a month beforehand, we reached out to confirm details, like we did with all our vendors and received no response ? via phone, email, Instagram, Facebook, etc. We reached out multiple times, with multiple different people. A week before our wedding, one of us finally heard back from Happy Dough Lucky, saying they were sorry and were busy as to why they couldn't respond for several weeks. We had no confidence in their communication

Amazing! Love the pinball and vintage vibe . The donuts are served warm!!! Yummy . We had the shaken lemonade and it was delicious.

Absolutely fantastic donuts and employees. Cool place

This place was amazing! They treated my family like their own family. The donuts are so GOOD!!! Definitely recommend!!! ??????

How can you seriously have A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G bad to say about this place? The interior is absolutely awesome, Simpsons stuff everywhere, pinball, tables, and a nice bar to sit at. Doughnuts are OUTSTANDING too, seriously. Don't sleep on this place, you'd be foolish not to.

Donuts are so amazing!!!! And the atmosphere? Even cooler! So artistic and fun! I will for sure be going there all the time! Just what bay view needed!
