These donuts are delicious!! They truly taste homemade, and rightly so because they are made fresh to order. There are many choices for toppings. They're smaller than typical donuts but they're a perfect size especially if you want to eat multiple different flavors. My picky kid also loved them. The shop is super clean and nice and the owner is incredibly friendly! He offered to help us out to the car and gave us sample donuts while we waited for our large order. We will definitely be going back!! Highly r
Delicious! We stopped here when visiting Connecticut, and so happy we did. The donuts were fresh, a variety of flavors, and so yummy. The folks working were really kind and helpful, too. We will definitely return when in town!
Dad's Doughs is really sweet - pun intended ;) It's the donut and coffee shop Mansfield needed! Their locally roasted coffee is my favorite in town and their rotating donut flavors are fun and super tasty! I'm a big fan of the mini style. They're just the perfect amount as larger ones can be a little too much sometimes and the mini style allows me to try different flavors if I want to :) The owner, Lucas, is super kind, hospitable, very generous and is always a pleasure to talk to. Stop in for a lovely ch
Honestly the best doughnuts I've had, which made sense after I learned they're all made-to-order instead of sitting out! They're light and fluffy with just a little crisp on the outside, and absolutely 0 greasy taste/texture. Their blueberry glaze was especially outstanding, but there wasn't a single one in the six-pack that we didn't love. PLUS 2/3 of the flavors are always changing! And they have daily coffee flavors! The doughnut flavors are really unique too (think chocolate pretzel, maple bacon, etc.)
Pros: - New and local business - The branding is on point - The establishment itself seems very clean - The service is very quick - The owner seems very nice and attentive to his business - The texture of the doughnuts are quite pleasing. Cons: - The actual doughnuts are much smaller than you think they are. They are closer to doughnut holes in size - Given the size of the doughnuts, the price is way more than what I would have thought. I understood going in that this is a new small business that claims to
Stopped in for the first time. Was greeted warmly by the man at the counter (presumably the owner) when we walked in. You could tell he was very passionate about the shop and the doughnuts they make. His customer service was excellent, explaining that they have 6 permanent flavors and 12 rotating flavors. And that the doughnuts are made to order, instead of pre-made and sitting around. Our order came out quickly. The doughnuts themselves were terrific. A nice little crisp on the outside, while soft and doug
I picked up nine 36 pc boxes for a high school event. Also picked up some of the Allergen Free donuts. It was a huge hit with the students! Lucas was very easy to work with ... we will be back!
Was driving to UConn when I noticed this new sign in Mansfield Center. I decided to stop and try the new doughnut shop in town. Parking was very easy and the entrance is in the bottom floor of the building. I entered the front and needed to take stairs, there is parking higher up for easier access. There are fresh made mini cake doughnuts. There were many different toppings to try. The doughnuts are pricier, but they are fresh made and have specialty toppings, so compared to other designer doughnuts these
Super cute little spot! The owner was super welcoming and friendly. Staff was on top of it and the service was great! The doughs were out of this world!! The mini size is genius, definitely worth a visit!!
We stopped in to try some donuts, and I am so glad we did! We went in a few minutes before closing expecting that they wouldn't have much, but everything is fresh to order so they had so many options. The donuts are delicious, fresh and it's a fun experience! We will certainly be back as we found a new favorite spot!
Amazing! Absolutely love this place. A must try for sure. They are a great addition to our community. Staff is friendly outdoing and ready to provide suggestions. They also made a donation to one of our school fundraisers which was huge for our small community! Please support local and stop by Dad's doughs you will not be disappointed
I stopped by here the other day because I had a gift card from Christmas and I?m so glad I did! Great options to choose from and these little treats are beyond tasty. Though they are a bit sweet for my liking which is my reason for 4 stars.
My dad brought me in this morning for mini doughnuts to celebrate my sweet 16 yesterday. The owner there greeted us as soon as we walked in the door with a warm smile and kind words. His customer service was amazing and he even gave us complementary homemade strawberry tea and a mini doughnut to wish me a happy birthday. There was a window to watch him make the doughnuts which I recommend for small curious children. We bought 2 dozen mini doughnuts that were delicious and it was overall a wonderful experien
An incredible new local place! The donuts are super fresh, with a lot of unique (and delicious!) flavors. The coffee and tea are also surprisingly good for somewhere that isn't a cafe. Highly recommended, especially for a dessert treat!
Incredible donuts and even better customer service. My kiddo loved watching them make our donuts through the window. We will definitely be back!
I finally tried Dad?s Dough?s, and I already can?t wait to go back! The staff was incredibly friendly, and the donuts are made fresh to order right in front of you, which adds to the whole experience. They?re testing out a French vanilla coffee, so I brought one home for my fianc?, and he loved it. I?m not much of a coffee drinker myself, but I decided to give it a try?and wow, it was surprisingly good, even without any creamer. The real highlight, though, was the mini donuts! They were absolutely delicio
Finally stopped in for my first time yesterday and I already can?t wait to go back. I placed my order online which was super easy and everything was ready when I got there. The staff (I believe the owner) was super friendly and made sure I had everything I needed. The donuts were fantastic, everyone loved them, and my iced coffee was really good, too. I definitely recommend checking out Dad?s Doughs!
This is a great local business! Absolutely delicious, fresh doughnuts. The rotating selection of flavors is awesome, so I got a dozen to try the different flavors. I loved the blueberry pancake donut!
Donuts are amazing and have a lot of flavors to pick from! Staff is extremely kind and impressive and we received an extra free half dozen for a minor mix up in our order! Definitely coming back
Dad?s doughs is a breath of fresh air into the Mansfield community! I was pleasantly surprised first off with the customer service off the bat. I was greeted warmly by Lucas, one of the owners who gave me a run down of the flavors available that day, both the signature donuts and the new flavors on rotation that day. My favorite was the maple bacon. The mini donuts were made right in front of me and it was really cool to see the whole process from dough to your mouth. They were fresh warm, had that perfect
Dad?s Doughs is the perfect treat to stop and get if you find yourself in Mansfield. It?s easy to find and easy to park at. It has a fun vibe when you walk in, and the service was friendly and quick. They had a lot of fun flavors to choose from, and the doughnuts were delicious! My favorites were the strawberry shortcake one as well as the maple bacon. I also got an iced coffee, which was good with plenty of local milks to choose from to add to your drink with no additional cost. They even had local eggnog
Ordered 3 dozen doughnuts online the night before for my daughter's school. Super easy to do, quick, easy pick-up. Service was absolutely amazing, the owner was incredibly nice and helpful, offering to carry the donuts out to my car for me since I had a toddler and newborn in tow! Absolutely delicious doughnuts and a great selection. Personally love the mini size. Can't wait to go back!
We drove all the way in from Canton for these! Delicious fresh mini donuts, tasty coffee, & really nice staff. I also appreciate how allergy conscious they are here, with gluten-free and nut-free options.
I heard a lot about these adorable doughnuts, so I finally stopped by today. I saw a negative review about the size being too small and the price, but I thought the opposite. That's what they're known for those mini donuts and they are adorable and delicious. The price I thought was really good. If you go to Dunkin' Donuts a normal sized donut that is mass produced and sitting all day are over $2 a donut. I bought a six-pack of variety and it was under $10. They were freshly made and had such a nice crisp o
What a great spot!! Definitely must check it out. Delicious homemade donuts made fresh when you order. Coffee was really good too. Staff were so friendly and helpful!
Dad's doughs. Oh my! These little sweet delights are soft and fluffy on the inside with a slight crispy texture to the outside. The best thing is the variety of individually made flavors. You must try them. You won't be disappointed!
Incredible mini doughnuts. The texture is unreal. Perfectly crispy on the outside, cake like melt in your mouth on the inside. Great variety of toppings.
This place is AMAZING. It?s fresh donuts, not like Dunkin? Donuts that have there donuts sitting out there all day. They make them in front of you so you can see how fresh they really are. They have an array of different flavors to suit everybody?s taste buds. The owner is great and a down to earth person who deserves the support of all the locals and students at UCONN. Got a half dozen and they all exceeded expectations. Greatly priced, so check this place out!!!
the donuts and the coffee are incredible. the owner is the nicest person ever and makes you feel so welcomed and even takes advice. please come here and show your support to this awesome small business!
I fully believe in supporting small local businesses and I LOVE donuts, but this place was way overhyped unfortunately. The donuts are tiny, as advertised, which isn?t a problem in itself, but for almost 2$ a donut they are too small. They are advertised as fresh but ours were quite cold, and all the flavors had the same dominant fryer oil and sugar flavor with little other flavor coming through. I love the idea of a new donut shop in town and want to support this place but the donuts are just way too expen
Totally love this place. The donuts are really good. They're smaller than a typical Dunkin donut (but not too expensive!) which means you can have a couple different flavors. I really like the Strawberry Shortcake and Pi?a Colada flavors! The service is very good and the staff are so nice and friendly. So long as it's not a holiday, it's very quick especially considering the donuts are made fresh. I went with my dad and we got a half dozen donuts and some coffees for the family, and I decided I wanted to b
Incredibly friendly and generous owner, and fun DELICIOUS donuts!!! He gave me 2 free donuts as a first time visitor and offered to top off my coffee on my way out after I sat and read a book for a bit. 10/10 would recommend!!!
Such a great new donut shop!! All the flavors I have tried are so delicious and I love the donuts being smaller so you can eat multiple of different flavors to enjoy it all!! The atmosphere is great! Lucas is such a vibrant welcoming person which adds the experience!!
What an awesome concept! I love the mini donuts and selection of delicious flavors. I love that it?s a small business and supporting someone who lives in our very own community. Skip over Dunkin because those donuts have nothing on these mini beauties!
We went on the first day of their soft opening. The energy was high. Everyone was so happy to have a local donut shop in the neighborhood. The employees were happy and transferred that joy to the customers. The donuts are delicious, and the coffee wasn?t bad either. Looking forward to our next visit.
I put in a large order of donuts and coffee to bring to my son?s daycare. The team there was so helpful and kind. They even helped me bring it out to my car! The shop is very cute and sparkling clean.
I'm so excited to have a new doughnut place nearby. Doughnuta are made fresh to order, not mass produced and left to get stale through the day. The staff is friendly. What a great addition to the area!!
After trying dad?s dough I am absolutely hooked! They have a variety of flavors so you can get a new one every time you go, the staff are super friendly and welcoming, the dining area and kitchen are very clean! Overall 5/5 stars for the excellent experience!
We went yesterday and ordered a dozen mini donuts and were highly impressed with the creative variety of flavors to choose from. The staff was super friendly and the artwork inside made it super welcoming and family friendly. Being able to watch our order being made through a window was a very cool perk and enjoying our DELICIOUS doughnuts warm and fresh from the oven was the best part! My favorite flavor was dulce de leche, my husband's favorite was maple bacon and our son said his was a tie between s'more
Superb experience. Great environment and fresh donuts. What?s not to enjoy! Owner was very friendly and cares for the customers. We will be coming back!!
These are MICRO doughnuts. I don't want anyone to be disappointed by the size. They're Itty bitty. Barely 2 bites. Doughnettes.....but still delicious.
Awesome new donut shop in town! Fun donut toppings and great coffee! The owner?s super friendly and the atmosphere is really cool.
?I had a great experience at Dad?s Donuts! The donuts were fresh, delicious, and absolutely hit the spot. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. I?ll definitely be back for more!
Great donuts, and the owner was very friendly. They even donated several boxes of donuts to the teachers at a nearby elementary school for Valentine's Day!!
dads dough is awesome, the donuts and coffee are amazing and the owner is incredibly kind. everyone needs to come here and experience how awesome this place is.
AMAZING!!! doughnuts were so delicious and the customer service was top tier! 5 stars all around
Such a great spot!! Owner was delightful and the donuts were the best I ever had. Cannot wait to go back!
Amazing local donut shop. Delicious high quality and awesome team working here! You see your donuts being made right in front of you which is very neat.
This place is very cool, donuts are great and the owner is a truly wonderful person. If you?re in the area don?t hesitate, stop over and treat yourself.

Awesome new spot! Lucas the owner is a great guy and did an amazing job getting this place launched, and the product is soooo good!
Amazing donuts and atmosphere, and the owner is so so sweet! Have to visit spot!
Awesome Sauce and even gluten free options, for those gluten sensitive like me ',-)
the donuts are amazing and the owner is so so nice. 100/10.
Nice owner and nice little clean shop, but overpriced small dry doughnuts.
The doughts here may be small but are quite delicious and the perfect size for kids. Highly reccomend!
Very nice owner, donuts were great and came out fast, totally worth the price!
Delicious donuts, fresh hot and iced coffee, and great customer service. Thanks Dad!
