WOW Donut sits on NW 164th Street, right in that north Edmond / Deer Creek morning traffic zone where a donut shop either makes sense or it does not. This one makes sense.
The setup is straightforward: a neighborhood donut case, early hours, breakfast items you can eat in the car, and enough colorful options to keep kids from treating a plain glazed like a personal insult. It is not trying to be a big-city dessert lab. It is doing the Oklahoma donut shop thing, which usually means the real question is whether the case has the right mix of classics, sausage rolls, and something fun for birthdays.
WOW Donut checks those boxes.
What WOW Donut serves in Edmond
The menu leans familiar in a good way. You will find glazed donuts, chocolate, maple, vanilla, strawberry, twists, long johns, filled donuts, apple fritters, cinnamon rolls, donut holes, and cake donuts, including blueberry and old fashioned styles.
That is the kind of case where I always have to make one responsible choice and one decision that clearly was not discussed with a doctor.
Beyond the sweets, WOW Donut also serves kolache-style sausage rolls, including a jalapeño option, plus croissant breakfast sandwiches with egg, cheese, and bacon, sausage, or ham. That matters on NW 164th, where plenty of people are not sitting down for breakfast. They are grabbing something before school drop-off, work, or whatever errand somehow starts before 8 a.m.
There are also drinks, including hot coffee, iced coffee, bottled drinks, juice, milk, and the kid-targeted character drinks that tend to light up a donut shop cooler.
The fun part: character and custom donuts
The thing that gives WOW Donut a little extra personality is the custom and character donut side. The shop is known for themed donuts, birthday donuts, letter donuts, sports designs, and kid-friendly character styles.
That is smart donut-shop work. A good glazed donut gets adults in the door. A Mario donut or birthday set gets the backseat involved.
And in Edmond, especially around the Deer Creek area, that kind of thing has a built-in audience. There are school parties, team snacks, birthdays, Saturday mornings, and parents trying to pull off a small celebration without turning it into a full production. A box of custom donuts can do a lot of heavy lifting.
WOW Donut does not need to reinvent breakfast to be useful. It just needs to be open early, have a solid case, and make the morning feel a little less plain.
The location helps, too. The shop is at 2136 NW 164th St, near the Penn and 164th stretch, in a strip-center part of north Edmond where a quick stop is the whole point. This is the kind of place you notice once, then remember the next time somebody in the house says, “Can we get donuts?” before you have had coffee.
I would treat WOW Donut as a classic donut-shop stop rather than a fancy dessert destination. Go for the glazed, cake donuts, long johns, fritters, sausage rolls, croissant sandwiches, and the themed donuts if you have a kid’s birthday or classroom treat situation coming up.
Sometimes that is exactly what a neighborhood needs.
