Customer Reviews

My go to donut place! Everything's good here. Pheary is the nicest she even made me some cinnamon sugar twists that I craved for awhile. Highly recommend!

The Oreo doughnut was so good, but I can?t show you the photo but it?s really good

It?s a simple humble donut and kolache place. But don?t let the small selection of food and plain decor fool you, this location houses the freshest donuts and kolaches in town hosted by the nicest lady ever behind the counter. (She gave us extra donut holes and even an extra croissant kolache!) Their donuts/kolaches taste way too good for prices that low.

The little Asian woman ( my memory is horrible with names) is so kind and has great customer service skills. The food is good, and extremely affordable. I used to go there before work and get myself some breakfast. Sadly, I don't work in that area and can't come eat here anymore. But, I wanted to leave a good review to help support this little Donut shop. Thank you for your kindness!

The best kolaches, I have tried several different places but definitely the best. Donuts are very good too.

Donuts and Kolaches were so yummy! My favorites were of course the donut holes!

It's one of my favorite places for kloche, sausage & cheese. Used to be able get there at 6am, but now you're no longer lucky, had a big order for coworker for our Wine Wednesday. Shop needs to update their times of operation.

This place is never open consistently. They will be open before 6am maybe once, every 2 weeks. I have even seen them still closed AFTER 6am. Kolaches are good, but my juice was expired by nearly 4 months. They have a good location to make money, but management is very poor.

If you live in the Heritage Park area and haven't tried Paul's Donuts, you're missing out! The glazed donuts are probably the best I've ever had. I'm not sure where the negative posts are coming from. Maybe they caught them on a bad day or something because everytime i have stopped in the donuts were amazing. They also have a bacon, egg, and cheese croissant that's pretty tasty.

Proprietors are nice. Kolache is not. Jalapeno and cheese is non-existent in the kolache of said name. There is a tiny square of jalapeno on top of the bread and the "cheese" looks almost like it was sprayed lightly on one side.

These are the best donuts I've ever had in my life. They are soft and moist on the inside and have a slight crispyness on the outside. They are not overly sweet. Any time I'm around this part of town I'll make a stop here.

My cinnamon twist tasted like burnt grease . The doughnuts were tough and kolaches we?re very very tough .

Nothing compared to Shipley's. Don't care for the bread taste on kolaches. Very friendly. Don't have many donuts to choose from early in morning

Donuts are soft and delicious no matter what time you go. Definitely will be stopping by when I'm close by.

I love Paul's Donut! Best kolache dough, excellent glazed and cinnamon donuts! Love them!

I don?t like giving bad reviews. Maybe it was just a bad day but the donuts and orange juice tasted weird, sour, and expired

Best blueberry cake donut and donut holes. Their kolaches are fantastic too ??

Best small kolaches in the area! I?m always wishing I had bought one more.

Best Kolaches in town! We've been going there for years.

Consistently fantastic. The woman behind the counter is always an angel towards my kids and I.

Clean, friendly, delicious, and competitively priced.

Awesome food with friendly faces
