Big Apple Donuts and Cafe

Absolutely one of the best breakfast spots in all of the Upstate. This hidden gem is a 10/10. Please go visit and support them immediately. They remind me so much of the breakfast spots I frequented growing up in NY/NJ which is a huge compliment. The staff are super friendly, very quick and so sweet. Their donuts taste homemade and they have tons of variety. My favorite was the blueberry cake donut. They also do breakfast sandwiches and have a brunch menu. Tons of drink options like coffee, tea and boba.

My husband and I were trying something new for a date day. The first time we came here all the donuts were sold out except maybe 5. We ended up getting bagel sandwiches and coffees. I didn?t love my cappuccino, but the bagel sandwiches were by far the best I have ever ate. I got bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel, and my husband got just egg and cheese. He loved his as much as me. I recently went back for some ?me time? and got some breakfast. This time there were plenty of donuts to select from

My biggest regret is the fact that I haven?t been here until today. This is hands down THE BEST doughnut shop! It?s cute, delicious and the owners are as sweet as a doughnut with sprinkles on top!!!! Thank you all for a wonderful treat, and I can?t wait to come back! ??????

We've been here several times now. I'm not a fancy donut guy. A good glazed donut wins me over every time. Big Apple has amazing glazed donuts as well as cinnamon buns and the apple fritters are next level. So Big Apple has the donuts, but how's the food? Simple answer the food is legit. Burgers, bagel sandwiches and my new favorite the croissant sandwich are incredible. Fresh and made to order with American cheese which as far as I'm concerned is the only way to make a breakfast sandwich. Every time I've

Wow. I'm happy/sad this is 35 minutes from my house, because this place is sort where traditions are made! AMAZING donuts! The maple bar took me back to Stricks Donuts in Spokane as a kid. The apple fritter was as good as the other reviews say. This is what I remember Dunkin tried to be many years ago. Nice sized dining area as I wait for a windshield repair?rght now, I'm kinda hoping they take their time and Im stuck here long enough to eat again. Bravo!!!??????

I love simple doughnuts! I?ve always felt Greenville lacked a good doughnut place was wasn?t too fancy or too expensive. Thank God for Big Apple ?? exactly the type of doughnuts I have been searching for since moving here. Delicious, reasonable price, and fresh! We bought apple fritters, chocolate frosted, maple frosted, old fashion blueberry, and was given a free glazed for national donut day! Delicious and will be returning soon!

This shop has a great selection of baked sweets and breakfast sandwiches. It was clean and well organized. The staff were friendly, helpful, and courteous. All the beautiful treats looked and smelled freshly made. They filled our order quickly. They have one of those spin-around card-payment kiosks that offer the chance to tip (but not required). We will visit them again!

I was excited to try this place after seeing so many glowing reviews but it turned into a decent disappointment. The vanilla glazed with sprinkles was nothing special; maybe a notch up from Dunkin. Now, my bacon egg and cheese sandwich was seriously underwhelming. The bagel (owner said it was from NY) was most certainly not an authentic NY bagel; it wasn't even from Jersey Bros right down the street. The bagel was soggy and seemed more like a cheap grocery store bagel. ?? but it was overall edible since I w

fresh, delicious donuts and strong, flavorful coffee!! they mean it when they say it. customer service was great and they clearly care about the quality of their items. next time i?ll come in here earlier and try to get the donuts that get snatched up quick because when i went in there they were almost cleaned out. ?? the proof is in the pudding!

Doughnuts are fantastic and feel very authentic and fresh, and I?ve also had the bacon egg and cheese on a bagel and I have only good things to say. Reasonable pricing and has the family owned charm. Great service and such a kind family. In my opinion it is the best quick breakfast option we?ve had.

My wife & I are visiting my son in Taylor?s and decided to go out and get some donuts & coffee. We ordered a dozen donuts, 2 sausage egg and cheese everything bagels. They were exceptional! The service was excellent! The nice lady who served us was very helpful and efficient. I would definitely recommend that the locals go try this place out!!

Great bagel sandwiches and good prices. Taylors needed a good local breakfast sandwich spot and this it! Only feedback would be to make the bagels have a little more crisp than they did - they were a little soft but that?s personal preference.

Today was the first time trying Big Apple Donuts and Caf?. It was absolutely amazing. We had sandwiches, coffee and got an assorted dozen to go. My Croissant with bacon, egg and cheese was absolutely delicious. The whole thing was made fresh. It was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I have had in a very long time, so filling. My husband had the cheesesteak. It looked amazing. It was so big he couldn't finish the last few bites. The donuts are so delicious and made fresh. I have to say they are much bette

Stopped in at Big Apple Doughnuts on a whim this morning. Having not heard about them before I wasn?t sure what to expect. I purchased 2 dozen assorted doughnuts and brought them in for my employees. They were a huge success! Everyone talked about how light and tasty they were. I will definitely stop in again.

I hope they stay open forever! These put all other donuts to shame!! Our favorites were definitely the strawberry and maple bacon but they were all delicious, and reasonably priced! We can?t wait to go back!

The food here is absolutely amazing! My only complaint is that I was going up there today to get donuts and they had closed early. If you guys are going to close early then you need to update your hours online so people aren't wasting time and gas but other than that I have no complaints. Best donuts ever!

I'm really glad I came here! I went early one Sunday morning, and the front counter shelves were beautifully filled with rows of donuts, cinammon rolls, apple fritters, and more. I got an apple fritter and a bagel w/ cream cheese. Both were fully satisfactory in their simplicity. I was able to talk with the lady who works there and she let me know they make everything fresh every morning, and they get there at 3AM to make sure everything is ready. She was very friendly. I did not get their coffee today, but

Terrible! I had a dozen assorted doughnuts and a mango smoothie delivered to my work. (4-18-25) I shard the doughnuts among my coworkers and we all (8 of us) said the same thing. They tasted and looked like they were days old. It took 20 min (not long) to be delivered and they were ALL cold and hard. Tasted like old grease. The taste of the mango smoothie was good, until I noticed ice cubes the size of my palm in there and so the smoothie was less then half the cup with out them... Biggest waste of money.

This place has amazing donuts!! Better than any chain around and our family is local to GVL and are big Krispy Kreme fans. The selection is vast and the flavor is great. The donuts don?t taste heavy of oil. The glazes taste good too. The strawberry icing actually has strawberries in it.

Not recommended. I can go to nearby grocery stores and get a better product and better service at a much lower price. Contrary to some of the other reviews, I have been a couple of times and have not been impressed. I was there late morning and ordered apple fritters. Both times, they were dried and stale. Not very tasty either. At a price of almost $6 for two, this is not a good value. Especially since they ?encouraged? a substantial tip at checkout. For working at a counter? In addition, service was not

This family-owned-and-run donut shop has excellent, melt-in-your mouth fresh donuts every morning, and the service is even better. (You can even get Bubble Tea here!) My daughters and I adore this absolute gem in the Upstate.

Family owned business, very friendly people, I got ice coffee, cream cheese bagel and croissant donut. Everything was great, only think I would prefer personally would be a little more cream cheese in bagel but that is a personal preference. Support your local businesses!

Our weekly go to shop for breakfast sandwiches and donuts. Always greeted with a smile and conversation. They can fill your donuts to order and the cronuts are to die for! Come early because they do sell out!

Nice local place here. I?d love to come back for breakfast. A place to get a burger with fries n a doughnut $14 , plus it works. Burger wasn?t world changing but it was fresh n so were the fries. Locals need to embrace

A new gem in Taylors! Big Apple is becoming a hub for the Taylors Reid School area community. The atmosphere is casual and homey, closer to a NYC deli than to the gentrified donut shops of Downtown Greenville. The food here is perfect and simple, and priced affordably. This is a small family-owned/ operated cafe. Expect to stand in line for 3?5 minutes, and please be patient and gracious to the staff! Bring cash if you have it handy?helps cut down on the card processing surcharges. This little donut shop

Come with me, friends, as we venture into the sweet, sweet world of donuts. Now, if you are of the (incorrect) opinion that a donut is a donut and nothing more, then I challenge you to visit Big Apple Donuts and Cafe. These are not just donuts, my friend. They are an experience of the highest order. When you step through the door, you leave behind the mortal world as you know it and step into a little corner of heaven. Here, you will be able to feast upon delicious delights that before only existed in the

The perfect hole in the wall doughnut experience. The girl at the front recommended we get an off menu egg, bacon, cheese, lettuce, Tom, croissant and it was an epic game changer. Apple fritter was also classic and legit. Hot coffee, all mojo.

I?m from out of town and was looking for a breakfast spot to eat at. Found them on google and their croissants did not disappoint. Recommend, food is made fresh.

Best Donuts in the Greenville area hands down. Plus the breakfast sandwiches are really good too! And the lady at the counter is always the sweetest!

My family loves Big Apple. Took my son for a donut date this morning and he couldn?t have been more excited. It?s a must go for a breakfast treat.

What a fantastic donut shop. These are the freshest doughnuts I've ever tasted from a doughnut store Pick a fresh doughnut, pick a filling, they fill it right in front of you. Want a different topping? They do that too. Need a fresh bagel sandwich or a coffee or latte?, They have it. Want lunch? Guess what!

New donut shop in Taylors- great donuts! All filled donuts are filled to order as you buy them! Yummmmm!! Open from 6 am to 2 pm Only offer coffee and latte- need to add hot chocolate and hot tea!!

This place started off great but have dropped their "STANDARDS AND QUALITY RAPIDLY." Chocalate donuts do not taste like chocalate at all. Instead of a dark brown Frosting it's a medium tan/ Brown color and does not taste like chocolate at all...ITS JUST SUGAR!! My husband bought a bacon egg sandwich last weekend and sandwhich only had 2 pieces of bacon broke in half. Toasted bread was mushy and not toasted enough. We work too hard to throw our money away on "DECEIVING SUB STANDARD FOOD!" BELOW IVE ADDED A P

Had an apple fritter, that was very good. The meat and cheese on a roll was a huge let down at $4.70 1 slice of cheese, and barely any bacon. Big rip off.

Great selection of donuts and food. Employees are nice. Restaurant is kid friendly and always clean when I walk in. And not expensive.

Donuts are so good! Apple fritters are, in my opinion, the best in Greenville (I will say that I think the ones at Maverick Donuts are a close second)

Cinnamon toast crunch doughnut, love this place been there everyday since they opened. Made fresh breakfast sandwich and banh mi was delicious. Only open until 2 pm great prices too.

We had an absolutely amazing breakfast there this past weekend. Easily some of the best breakfast sandwiches and donuts I've had in South Carolina! We especially loved the cronut twists and cinnamon roll donuts. There was a small line when we arrived but it moved quickly and you can order pickup online as well. We loved that the filled donuts were filled to order so they were nice and fresh! Excellent value and service, we will be making this a regular stop for us.

Very good food. We went for breakfast and I had the sausage egg and cheese croissant entree. It can with hash browns and coffee. It was tasty and at least twice the size of any croissant I?ve ever seen. My wife had the filled strawberry doughnut and liked it as well. My wife and her friends have gone her on multiple occasions and have liked everything they?ve gotten. They have a very wide assortment of doughnuts and even some made to order. The atmosphere is unpretentious and I felt comfortable there.

Great donuts! They were honestly kinda special. I dumped my coffee though because I asked for hazelnut flavor added and they added WAY too much. Couldn't drink it. There was a bit of a line. I'll be back for more donuts and unflavored coffee though!

I didn't even know this doughnut shop was there. I pulled into the Plaza to get a sub and saw the sign. I was curious and decided to go inside and check it out. I purchased 12 assorted doughnuts and took them to work to share. I had 2 that morning that melted in my mouth. They were so fresh and absolutely delicious. I had to go back half way through my 12 hr shift and got 2 more. I will regret that decision when I get on the scale but for now I am completely satisfied and happy with my purchase. I highly re

My family goes a couple times a week and we're always so happy. The donuts are fresh, buttery, and delicious. The breakfast sandwiches are killer. The owners are incredibly sweet and even harder working. And the prices are very reasonable! True mom and pop donut and breakfast shop that we will continue to support!!

Croissant donuts are ????owners are kind, considerate and offer great service! Love the place!

My husband and I went there this morning for the 1st. time. It's my birthday and I wanted to try one of the donuts from there instead of having a cake. I can tell you that was the best donut I have ever had. The service was great and the restaurant was so nice and clean. We will definitely be back.

AMAZING!! I wanted to try a local coffee place instead of the big corporations, and I?m so glad I went here. I got the strawberry fancy doughnut with a coffee, and it was heavenly! I will definitely be coming back!! Thank you! ??

Amazing donuts, so light and fluffy with Amazing flavor. They even gave us a free donut to try a mochi donut that are gluten free and so good. The bubble tea was so good also and good price. I would highly recommend these donuts!!!

I love it here!! The fresh fillings! The croissant breakfast sandwiches 10/10

Super yummy! We'll be back. Beautiful display of yummy goodness, also known as a donut. ;)

This place is incredible, especially the apple fritter. It haunts my dreams. The rest of the doughnuts are also very good. I?ve tried a few of the sandwiches and they?re also good, especially the Philly. Service is always quick and the staff is very pleasant, especially when the owner is working the register. She?s as sweet as the doughnuts!

Love this place. Best doughnuts I have ever had. Go there every week. Love the staff too.

I?ve been to this place 3 times. Each time has been amazing. From the customer service down to the quality of the food. Just a simple breakfast bagel sandwich was absolutely mind blowing. Literally their glazed donuts are the best donuts I?ve ever had. You can taste the freshness, the flavor. The customer service is 10/10. The place is clean and inviting. Dunkin? Donuts is done for me. This is my go to breakfast place!

I have been there 3 times & have gotten good service & great food each time. Donuts & coffee both delicious & I love the additional ingredients you can add to donuts & coffee. Would recommend to anyone & will continue to go myself.

Love this place!!! Tried the doughnuts Are light and fluffy. The coffee is good wonderful customer service. The breakfast sandwiches are good especially the steak egg and cheese on an everything bagel with mayo.

I came in here because I was in a hurry and needed something light. I was amazed at the sheer beauty of their doughnuts - they all looked like a crafted work of art and I wanted to try more than a few. I will most definitely be back to sample the varieties that I just did not have the room for on that first visit.

This place has so many varieties of donuts and bakery goods. I can see why it is so popular. As a bonus, the owners are nice and hustle to get your order to you as quick as possible.

I love this place. The donuts are so good. They are fresh, and soft, and sweet, and tasty, and I just love them. I love them so much. I just had an apple fritter here, and it was hands down the best apple fritter I've ever had. They have really good food too!! It's all yummy. The staff is so sweet and helpful and I just love them too. If you can't tell.. I love this place. I just love it.

I have been praying for a REAL homemade donut shop in this area since I moved here in 2005. FINALLY!!! I love this place. The donuts are absolutely amazing. This is no glorified cake donut with a bunch of candy on top. These are the real deal. And you can get custom fillings or toppings to boot. The staff is awesome. This place is heaven. It's 1/2 an hour away from me, but I'm totally going to be there as much as I can. Local businesses need your patronage.

I wanted a good doughnut this morning, and that?s just what I got. It was so fresh. It was just what I wanted. The price was just fine. The guy that helped me this morning was very nice and kind. I will definitely go back. I really enjoyed the vanilla custard doughnuts.

The BEST donuts I've had in a long time. They were soft and fresh; the ability to add your choice of filling was a bonus. The service was great! Will definitely visit again.

Go just to see the donut/pastry display! It is a work of art! Then select one of everything and dig in! We have probably tried over 75% of all their offerings in the few weeks they have been open and there is nothing we wouldn?t get again. The chocolate glaze twists are my favorites with all their cake donuts and apple fritters running a close second. It?s a small space that is super clean with a very friendly and accommodating staff. We keep meaning to try the breakfast sandwiches (heard they are wonderfu

The neighborhood's go to donut cafe. It's the perfect place to stop and pick up a dozen for the office. The favorite will always be the boston cream! They offer a beautiful selection of fresh donuts but they also serve breakfast and lunch. This shop is exactly what this part of town needed. We feel blessed to welcome the Big Apple into Taylors, SC. Watch for their posts on Facebook as they communicate almost daily about their bakery stock and oscillating hours of operation. ??

They have very good fresh doughnuts but when it comes to buying lunch you may want to go somewhere else for your moneys worth. Never had a thinner frozen patty of meat in my life for a $10 burger. Way over priced !!

This doughnut shop is AWESOME!!! First, the cleanliness of the shop and the freshness of all of the doughnuts initially caught my eye! I ordered a sausage and cheese croissant sandwich and it was AMAZING! The croissant was fresh and buttery which made the sandwich even that much better! I also got an eclair filled with bovarian cream; and let me say that this is the first doughnut shop that I?ve been to that fills your doughnuts when you order them - meaning I was able to select the filling that I wanted in

Amazing!!!!! Doughnuts are so fresh and delicious, I love that you can pick your filling on some of the doughnuts! Mango bubble tea is delicious. We also tried their breakfast sandwiches, which are so amazing. I'm so glad we live close! This will definitely become our go to! Really affordable prices as well.

I had the philly cheesesteak sub and let me tell you, its the best I?ve ever had and it was gone in seconds. I also had a chocolate glazed donut and it was mouth wateringly delicious! The food came out in about 5 minutes and the staff were so friendly! Absolutely recommend

Great mom and pop place to eat. They have breakfast sandwiches, kolache, coffees, teas, and doughnuts. Plain doughnuts, filled doughnuts, apple fritters, fancy doughnuts (doughnuts with toppings) and cake type doughnuts. My husband and I have visited several times and everything we ordered was delicious. It is homemade early that morning. The staff are nice and helpful. Love this place!!

Maple Bacon Donut & the Sausage Jalape?o Kolache are fantastic!

Friendliest staff ever!! Very good breakfast sandwiches. Haven?t tried the donuts yet but the look delicious! Living so close I will be a regular! 11/10!!

First time eating here. Awesome, huge croissant sandwich and donuts! They fill your donut while you wait! A definite must if you want a good breakfast sandwich or donut!

Delicious donuts! Wonderful local eatery.

I finally got the chance to stop by this morning after driving by every weekday. I got an apple fritter and a glazed donut. BOTH were absolutely delicious! The best apple fritter I have ever had! I will be returning soon!

As a donut fanatic, these are my favorite donuts in the area! The sugar raised donut is just the best and have been getting me through my last few weeks of pregnancy lol.

Delicious! I?ve been wanting to try their donuts but haven?t had the chance to make it out to Mauldin, and now this new location is only ten minutes away. They?re fluffy and not too sweet, which might be dangerous! We?re excited to try more menu items.

They're genuinely the best in town ? always fresh, generously filled, and beautifully decorated. Whenever I swing by, I can't resist grabbing a dozen for the office, and they're always a hit. Plus, the staff are just lovely. It's become my top spot for a sweet treat.

Had the chicken sandwich and onion rings. They were great! I didn't grab a doughnut but they looked delicious and there was a constant stream of people buying boxes of them.

Donuts are delicious and service was great!

Excellent customer service, yummy Donuts & delicious sandwiches! The staff remembers your favorites & makes it perfect everytime ! The coffee is MUCH better than Starbucks & DD.

Delicious donuts and a wide variety of them to chose from! Best time to get there is as early as possible because they can sell out quickly.

These are the best tasting, freshest donuts around. They've even got Krispy Kreme beat! They don't fill the donuts until you order them.

Tasty donuts and pretty good selection, we definitely needed a donut shop out here. So far we are happy. The donuts have an amazing texture

Have been here many many times. Donut holes are delicious! Breakfast sandwiches are things I crave all the time. And just over all donuts are always a hit.

Outstanding breakfast sandwiches (egg/cheese/bagel and a egg/cheese/bacon/croissant) and Bavarian cr?me donut. Highly recommend!

The breakfast sandwiches and doughnuts are amazing. Great prices. Very clean inside. Will be coming back!

All of their options were mouth watering. One of the kids wanted a chocolate donut frosted in chocolate which wasn?t available. The donut queen behind the counter took a couple chocolate to the back and frosted them herself before I even asked. 10/10

Amazing place!!! owners are so friendly and food had me coming back the same day for more. Going back this weekend as well thank you guys for the amazing food.

Egg sandwich is unbelievable. Who would have thought...donuts are amazing as well. Great service

Sweet staff, delicious gourmet doughnuts and the bacon egg and cheese sandwich was wonderful! We will definitely be back!

Perfect every single time
