Customer Reviews

Laughter, great food and most of all excellent customer service.

I've been really disappointed lately with the quality of the donuts at another well known place, so I picked up a variety from Daylight yesterday. 24 hours later they are still fresh and soft! So delicious too. The best part - Daylight Donuts is less than a mile from my house.

These are the best donuts you?ll ever have. They are leagues above any big brand donut shop and will leave you wanting more, my only issue is that I ran out of donuts too soon but I?ll definitely be back to buy more! The donuts are pillowy soft and you can taste the quality and freshness. Definitely recommend for law enforcement and emergency service personnel, they are affordable, delicious, and local. Buy a couple dozen for your workplace and you will be everyone?s new favorite coworker!

Awesome place, great donuts, owner is really funny

I had no idea this was in pinson. My first experience was amazing the lady was super nice and didn?t get annoyed that I took a minute to make a selection. She even gave me 2 extra donuts to try since it was out first time there. Took my kiddos again today and again great service my kiddos loved going there. And their donuts taste so good and fresh! I?ve tried donuts from all over and they are the best in the area.

I stopped in today to get a dozen doughnuts. Let me tell you, they are so good. I got some of the longjohns and got them filled. They were really filled( most places have just a little bit of filling in them), but these were perfect. The taste takes me back to when I was a young child and I got this treat with my dad. The owner was so sweet and helpful. I will definitely be back.
