Paradise did an amazing job on decorated donuts! The owner and staff were all great and price was reasonable. They definitely nailed it for what I had found as an example and they did a great job.
Gotta love these donuts! Order ahead if you can. The baked goods are so fresh and delicious they go fast! All the folks that work there are so pleasant and helpful ??????
Best doughnuts in GI! I always try to stop here when I'm in town. The doughnuts are always fresh and a wide variety. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. They are popular, so they may sell out of your favorite variety. If that happens, try something else, you won't be disappointed.
Terrible customer service, the lady at the counter is very rude and disrespectful. If someone does not like dealing with customers maybe they should be in the back making donuts and not being disrespectful to customers. Previous owners 10X more amazing. Will no longer purchase donuts here.
Friendly service. Best donuts in town. Biggest apple fritter I've ever seen. The Kolaches are great too.
Grandkids looked forward for months to try Paradise when they were in town. We went at 8 am sharp, and the donuts were glazed, baked, and chocolate. Much better variety at Super Saver across the street. And no greeting, very tired-looking annoyed counter people. I won't bother them again.
Great donuts, family owned, and very friendly staff.
I only tried a donut from here once but when I did have one recently, it was really good. Would recommend.
I will definitely be returning here. The food was great who doesn't love a donut ?? and they have sausage roll wrapped in a bread that was awesome ??
Supposed to be open til 11am!!!! Sood out and closed by 9am on a Thursday morning, wth is wrong with you people, bad way to run a morning business when u dont even get thru the morning rush, seriously poor business management. Have yet to be able to try them cuz they NEVER open as long as they?re business listings say which is 11AM. We were there at 9:15!!! Its called make another batch NOT CLOSE over 2 hours early - it was obviously closed for a lil while.
I've loved this place ever since I first started going there. I just took my wife on a early morning donut cravings run, and was amazed at the sight of a fully stocked counter. Why would I want a meager cereal bowl when I can have a cinnamon roll the size of a cereal bowl!. And not to mention a apple fritter the size of a dessert plate. But you definitely need to get here early these doughnuts have wings and they fly.!!
My father owns a bakery in Western Nebraska and I stumbled across Paradise Donuts this morning. The fresh donuts were amazing. A great variety. The bear claws looked amazing and the cinnamon rolls looked like they were to die for. I started off with my favorite, a maple long john filled with baverian cream.. which they fill at your request and a raised chocolate donut. I will definitely be back to try the rest.
So polite and such wonderful smiles for 1st thing in the morning. The donuts and the rolls are delicious. Grand Island has needed a place like this for a long time. Love the fritters and cinnamon rolls. Being able to choose your filling in the rolls is great. Just a wonderful touch to give the customer the choice. Great place. Thanks for coming to Grand Island.
These are the best donuts in Grand Island. They are always fresh and melt in your mouth. If you like donuts you have to stop by this place.
Came in this morning in a rush. First time customer. Greeted upon arrival. I asked jokingly for the fastest dozen they could get me. I think I was in and out in less than 3 minutes! Quality is superb, service as well! Will be returning 100%
Paradise Donuts in Grand Island is indeed the only stand alone donut shop in town and we are glad to see them finally here. The donuts are very good.... if you can get the ones you like.... such as chocolate cake donuts. If you don't get there before 9am they will be out of chocolate cake donuts. This store has been notorious for running out of product from the day it opened. So in short the donuts are consistently good and fresh and you will like them if they aren't out of your favorite donut. Steve
Superb donuts. Fluffy yumminess. So we had the bear claw, no apples...but damn it was cinnamon-y and fluffy! Donut holes and glazed-the same-pillows of sweetness.. And the finale - the filled Long John's. Unfilled until you request your flavour and so much filling found could fill 2 or 3 competitor's donut. The gal, not sure if she is the owner or not was very polite and friendly. Thank you Paradise Donuts to give a good start to our morning.
Lady at counter was extremely rude when I didn?t know what came in a dozen box. Bad customer service.

Really good donuts. Poor selection of your favorites during week days. This is really the only better than grocery donut store in the area. It would be easy to improve this place to an all-time favorite with more chocolate cake varieties or candy bar like toppings.
Amazing donuts! They where able to brighten a distant loved ones day with there incredibly delicious donuts! I can?t thank them enough for their hospitality and care! Many thanks from our family!!
The best place to get the biggest and freshest donuts. The Christmas decor is adorable with a cute little elf for you children to take pictures in!!!
The staff was amazing as always!!! Top notch customer service and top it off with the BEST Donuts in town!!! If you want amazing Doughnuts and all the works, go to non other than Grand Island's Paradise Donuts!!!
This is probably the best place to get doughnuts at in grand island, I apsolutely love there doughnuts and doughnut holes, I picked up a bag of them when I went to the harvest of harmony parade and man I wish I had bought another dozen. I did drop a bag of doughnut holes, and they gave me another bag free of charge I love them for doing that, Honestly worth the price of 10$ for a dozen they work hard to sell you doughnuts in the morning.
Was told I would not be waited on while on cell phone trying to show family what kind of donuts they had. Both lady and man were very rude to me and then I asked for three donuts. Got home only received. Two they don't give receipts. Wo u ld not recommend this place at all for customer service.
Paradise do its is the Best! Great people and very freshest most delicious pastries! :) you can also preorder your donuts so your favorites will be boxed and ready when you arrive! :)
You guys are amazing. I wish you guys were open longer, but I understand that you guys work a lot of hours. Thank you for all that you guys do.
For the occasional indulgence, Paradise Donuts never disappoints.... (unless I get there too late! Lol) Plus, the gentleman, I think he's the owner, is always friendly!
The donuts and rolls are wonderful! There is a huge variety, and several are decorated, with almost a painted look. The people who work there are friendly and gracious.
I've been there twice with my nephews around 10:30-11:00 on a Saturday & they've already run out of ALL donuts. I wish they would plan better for the weekend business.
Nice big warm yummy donuts but don't go too late they will be out. Always busy and I feel rushed to make my selection.
Sad to say... this place is gone... they've been "Sold Out" now for a long time and I don't see them coming back... such a wonderful place...
It's a shame that you can't go later in the morning and get donuts without them being sold out. Probably would make more money if you could accommodate to the customers ;) great donuts...terrible customer service.
The absolute best donuts in town "fair prices and the staff are very friendly!" Better get there early before they sell out for the day!
Myself and a group of friends came here after work for some fresh donuts. The staff is super friendly.
Thank you for your wonderful donut service today Friday August 7th 2020 and thank you for trying to get people to care about each other's Health with the mask wearing your place was clean your service was friendly and the Donuts were yummy for my kiddos and I
Awesome. Wonderful pastries and excellent service. I love how you can have your bismarks or long johns filled when you order.
The donuts are always so delicious and the employees are always so friendly! Always happy to support a small town business like Paradise!
The best glazed/raised donuts I have ever tasted by far! If you are a donut connoisseur or just a regular donut person Paradise Donuts is the place to go.
If you are looking for glazed donuts. Go to to new donut shop coming soon. Every time I go into Paradise, they are out of simple glazed donuts. Unbelievable
Extremley kind people and the donuts were really, really good. 10/10 Recommend.
Donuts are great but the lady with the black hair and all the tattoos needs to learn some better customer service she was very rude this morning!
Best donuts around!! If you are wanting a broad selection, make sure you're there early, as their donuts sell fast.
They use to be darn good but lately something going on, they out of donuts all the time, front help not very nice,too bad,pushes customers away. I'll give them a couple more tries.
Good doughnuts but they run out quickly but it's worth getting up early
Paradise donuts is just that--a donut paradise! They have one of the best raised donuts I've ever have, and their assortment is consistently impressive!
amazing donuts, these are definetly one of the greatest places to get donuts. the only bad thing is they are open till sold out or till noon :-( .....
