I just had a Daddy - Daughter date at the Bismarck location this afternoon with my 4th grader daughter. My family and I always appreciate the great selection of delicious donuts and the friendly and professional customer service! Thanks for helping make my Daughters Day! :)

A fun store with as nicely decorated (Halloween decorations this time) waiting and sitting area inside as it does a wide, creative (and widely named) selection of donuts. The most famous donut and company namesake is the Bearscat donut that looks like what it is named but gratefully tastes otherwise. My favorite is the Almond Joy. I know they are expanding and now have stores in Mandan and Minot, ND and Salem, OR. I also know the owners are generous benefactors to the needy in the community.

They make the best donuts! My family loves this place.

Awesome doughnuts.

Their selection of donuts is as amazing as the actual taste! For the last two times I came to Bismarck, I was extremely pleased with the taste and selection of these do items. My favorite - the almond joy!

I like donuts. A lot. Some may say too much. These are among the finest donuts Ive ever consumed. A veritable cornucopia of donuts appeal to the tastes of a wide variety of donut connoisseurs. It looks a little rough around the edges on the inside, but I suspect it is because the proprietors are focused on one thing, and one thing only: making delicious donuts.

This place was a nice surprise! I really enjoyed their Kramer donut (not so much their chocolate bearscat donut). Woulda liked to have tried the Twix one too, but they didn’t have any made the day I called. Based on my tepid interaction with the staff, I had braced myself for mediocre donuts at best. But whew, the donuts were gooey and moist and everything Sandy’s (in Fargo) hadn’t been earlier that day. Glad we gave Bearscat a try. 😊

Absolutely love there fresh Donuts! There smores donut is to die for!

I used to love this place...but my last couple visits to have a cup of coffee and donuts this year confirmed, for me, that the people, and donuts, are a bit cold and going stale...the coffee is not to my taste, not bright and fresh as Id expect...Im a donut and coffee connoisseur, others may accept the offerings but I will pass it, sorry...

Very Clean, Excellent Customer Service & Excellent Food!

Delicious melt in your mouth donuts. Quick and clean service!

They have the best raised donuts! After moving to Bismarck, I am so happy to find this local gem.

Ive never been more disappointed in my life! I went in and all they had was donuts... wth?! #wherethepoopat

Bearscat has the best donuts and their service is amazing! A must have when youre in Bismarck!

Best donuts in town & it’s not even close!

Lots of donuts to choose from and the donuts hole cakes are very good.

Ordered this for my husband’s surprise bday and it was a hit. Everyone kept asking, is this cake really a donut?! Quite a wow factor.

People were friendly and helpful. When we visited, they had a large variety of donuts and rolls to choose from. Everything we purchased was delicious.

Wonderful doughnuts! S’mores is by far the best one they do

Best donuts in the area! Bearscat is the place to get the highest quality, treat yoself donuts in Bismarck-Mandan.

Donuts were super delicious

Very tasty donuts. I love the variety and flavors. Thank you for being here and being delicious!

Their glazed/ chocolate long Johns are amazing!! My family loves this place. I cant say u have had one donut I havent liked.

You couldnt ask for anything more perfect 👌 I should be a bazillion pounds by now. I love them!!! We even give gift cards as gifts so others can experience the FABULOUS donuts! Staff is always super friendly too!

A great local bakeshop with excellent donuts.

Love the donuts but none of the employees wear masks. Won’t be visiting again for a while.

Delicious! A delicious bakery which continues to create new and exciting creations continually. The delicacies here are never ending. It is always fun to come back and see what is new.

Doughnuts are good but overpriced. I was there with my son in his stroller and, contrary to store info via Google, it does NOT have a wheelchair accessible entrance. Parking? Yes. But neither of the two doors were powered to allow easy entrance for wheelchairs or strollers. You are dependant upon your own creativity or the chance that someone is entering or leaving at the same time as you.Plus, the employee helping me wasnt very friendly. I felt like I was inconveniencing her.

You cant wear a mask during a pandemic while serving up donuts? You lost our business.

Donuts are not all that. Sometimes they are okay and sometimes that suck. Got some yesterday, very greasy!!! I like plain donuts because I can’t eat too much sweets, but the plain donuts here are tasteless!!!

Great pastries and donuts.

Best donuts Ive ever had

Just as amazing as the Donut Hole ... prolly better.

The donuts are delicious!!! Really hit that sweet tooth spot. My fave is the bacon peanut butter & chocolate with Bavarian cream donuts 😍 The staff is real nice too, would come back for more.

The donuts are awesome, the service is outstanding. The selection is huge. Only down fall is th hey dont have one where I live in Casper Wyoming!!!! We need a very good donut shop there.

Best dognuts ever!

Always has a great selection! Always been very happy with their service!

The lodge we stayed at recommended this place and it was quite the excursion. Not only did we get excellent pastries, the community was worth the drive. The people were very friendly and invited us to hang out and have pizza that evening. As good as the food is, the experience was better!

Horrible no one was wearing mask including the employees. I understand that its each stores policy.

Some of the best donuts I’ve ever had!! 💕

Oh so good. The bacon maple ones are amazing!!!

Great selection, friendly service. Best place in town for donuts! I bring them to clients for meetings and it is always well received.

10/10 always.

Donuts are freshly made (from scratch) daily! I love when I walk in and see a glass case full of variety! I know other customers havent touched them because they pick the donuts out that I want out of the glass case. The staff is beyond cheerful and owner is awesome at training his crew for success!

Oh my where do I start. The donuts at the bakery are always so fresh. You can get super decadent and fancy donuts or go with the classics, either way Bearscat is the only place to go if you want the best donuts in Bismarck!

Delicious donuts! Quick and friendly service! Highly recommend.

Love their rolls n donuts. Clean n staying with sanitizing guide lines.

Yummy

Best donuts we have had in a long time! Crisp, fresh, and yummy!!!

We love this place!!! It used to be called the Donut Hole. I dont think I have ever tried one that I didnt like. Yummm-o!!!!Also, the Donut Cakes are awesome!!

Every Saturday morning my honey and myself go to Bearscat & get 4 donuts. Great price, less than $6 and theres always new delicious flavors to try. All time favorite is the salted caramel! We look forward to it every week :)

Its nice place for a freshly made donuts 🍩

Great bakery. Love the variety and the pricing

Since there’s no Dunkin in Bismarck, this is where people go. The donuts taste just like their name.

Fresh, great variety. This should be the only place you go for doughnuts

Delicious donuts and I love that they partner with local organizations to do specialty donuts and raise funds for them!

First off, do NOT tell my doctor I go here.I might indulge every other month or so with a yeasty, tender, unctuous offering from Bearscat. Its my clients, acquaintances, and the occasional government official who benefit mainly from my continued patronage. They are so good!

They were out of most long Johns, but the donuts were amazing non the less

This place is amazing. And the apple fritters are like no other anywhere in or out of state.

Crazy variety of donuts. If you dont get the banana creme filled, peanut butter caramel drizzled bacon crumble donut youre missing out

Best donuts around! Cant get enough!

I am from NYC and stopped by on a whim as I drove through Bismarck during a road trip out west. We have thousands of bake shops in New York and I have never found one that even comes close to the quality of Bearscat. Absolutely OUT OF THIS WORLD donuts.I was the biggest fan of the Maple Bacon donut and the Raspberry filled donut but it seems like you cant go wrong no matter what you are craving. Wish I could give 6 stars. Its really that good.

Very delicious bakery and has the best selection in town. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for donuts to bring to the office.

Delicious place to get the best donuts in Bismarck! My kids and I stop in weekly for our fix. ❤️

Best donuts, quick service, great selection and friendly staff

Great tasting donuts and an awesome selection to choose from! Highly recommend!

Hands down, best donuts in town!

Best, best, best donuts in Bismarck. I avoid the place like the plague because I will eat myself into the poor house.

Good donuts but the prices are very high. A couple years ago this place changed its name from The Donut Hole to Bearscat Bakehouse, likely due to new ownership, and I havent had any reason to come back since. I went here more when the name was still The Donut Hole and everyone didnt flock here in the morning for their daily coffee and donut addiction.

Old review: Mediocre donuts with a seemingly random assortment of toppings and fillings. Nowhere near the best donuts ive tried, but certainly among the most expensive. If you have money to waste and want a slightly-better than convenience store donut, go for it.Update: Changed review to 4 stars. This time the donuts were much better. Given how positive the other reviews are, Im willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and say my first visit there was just an off batch.

Were from out of town and went there to get some fresh doughnuts. Got a custard Bismarck, Apple fritter and a drive doughnut. Man they were tasty, as good as we get back home at Ralphs in cookeville.

Absolutely great donuts!!! Best Ive had in a long time other than Lamars in KC

These donuts are FANTASTIC, the best I have EVER tasted. Walking in, the place looks pretty underwhelming, but just take a sniff and you instantly forget the looks. It was my first time going there, but it most certainly wont be my last. Try the one that looks like actual bearscat- yum, yum, yum!

Best donuts in town!! Staff is so kind and helpful.

Bearscat has amazing donuts .. from Bacon topped donuts to S’mores...

Delicious and super affordable! Glad our friend recommended it! Donuts for all five of us for less than $6!

Best doughnuts in town. Show up early to get them fresh. They sell fast!

Awesome Donuts, is like an old school bakery. Nothing fancy or trendy just good donuts and rolls, with a great variety.

Fresh and creative donuts! Love trying the new flavor mashups. Cant go wrong with a classic filled, a Bearscat, or the amazing fritters.

These guys make some interesting donuts. Want a bowl of cereal and a donut? Say no more! They make it...cereal on a donut! Want a donut with bacon on it? They have it.

These are the best donuts I have ever had. My car keeps wanting to turn into their lot when I drive by.

Had a tasty old-fashioned donut here. It’s a cute little shop, worth a visit.

So delicious! You can tell they are hand made and fresh every day! Im from New York and I am so glad I decided to come here!

The shop itself isnt much to get excited over, but the donuts are yummy. Also the name is just hilarious. Great local place!

Though its small and easy to miss, Bearscat Dougnuts are one of a kind! From Bismarks to Jelly filled, and even the one shaped like poo, they have tasty donughts for an amazing Value!!

Delicious donuts.

The donuts here are out of this world! I once got a donut cake and they were very fast, with only a days notice to pickup the cake.

These donuts are seriously the best I have ever had. Better than Krispy Kreme. The dough is so fresh tasting. Even the sprinkled is fantastic, and I say that because I would usually opt for a jelly or creme filled. Im not a fan of sweets usually, but when it is worth it, it is worth it. These donuts are worth every single calorie.

Bearscat runs a clean bakery with a very wide variety of tasty doughnut baked in-house. They have everything from your standard chocolate ring doughnuts to long johns covered with Fruity Pebbles. The staff is helpful with recommendations and even when theyre busy they dont try to rush you. These definitely arent the sub-$1 doughnuts you get from a grocery store. The drink options, however, do feel a bit overpriced to me.

If the guy is working, stay away, he doesnt want to help you anyway. The girl staff is always friendly with me, but I may start driving to the mandan one just to avoid the guy with 0 customer service skills. Plus mandan has a better variety of donuts for some odd reason (its the one spawned off this location) .

I will preface this by saying thay we travel all over the country for work and that I have a major sweet tooth. When my boyfriend told me to go here n get some donuts I was a little wary. When I walked in the store and looked around I was even more scared but, Im really glad I did because they are absolutely wonderful. You can tell they are homemade because the dough literally melts in your mouth. Donuts that are frozen and then flash fried have that spider web look to the dough. Ive seen a lot of comments about the price but $13 for a dozen donuts is extremely reasonable. Most donut places in a metropolitan area such as Bismarck (and, yes, this place is considered metropolitan in North Dakota, lol) as well as anywhere else. Yes, you can get cheaper donuts at a supermarket because they can afford to sell their donuts for less because they sell them in bulk and they order them from a factory. That is why local businesses struggle so much and it is extremely important to buy local. Youre getting a better more high quality product at $2 more a dozen. And a quarter more a donut. Ill spend the extra quarter.

I thoroughly enjoy these homemade donuts. You pay a little bit more but like the saying goes, you get what you pay for! Love their donuts

Hands down the BEST donuts that are always fresh!!! I visit every Saturday. The variety of donuts is AMAZING

Best donuts in Bismarck! During the holidays I like to get the eggnog donut. Anything filled or the sour cream donuts are also good.

Love this place! The doughnuts are delicious. I like the low key atmosphere as well.

Best doughnuts in Bismarck! Silly name but really good doughnuts.

Holy man those are some good donuts

The donuts are ALWAYS fresh! They literally melt in your mouth! I never thought Id find a glazed donut as good as a Krispy Kreme glazed donut.... until I tried Bearscat! They are even better than krispy kreme!!! And the staff are pretty friendly for the most part.

Bearscat catered the desserts for our wedding and they looked and tasted great and I heard nothing but good things from our guests! I enjoyed the large variety of flavors, and everyone I spoke with over the phone or via email were professional and helpful.

Great customer service and the donuts are amazing!!
