Donuts are really good. Largest apple fritter I've seen in my life, lol.
I pre-ordered 15 different types of donuts for a Mother?s Day function. Long story short, after taking them out and splitting them in multiple ?sample? sizes, I did not receive all the specialty donuts I had ordered. I noticed instead they were replaced with duplicates of other donuts I ordered, and I was shorted one. Regardless they were delicious and service was good, but a heads up that my order was going to be changed, would have been appreciated!
This is a cozy little donut shop, that offers great tasting donuts! The plain glazed donuts are the closest saying I found to Round Rock Donuts world famous Donuts since I've been here in North carolina. If you know about Round Rock donuts, come check this place out! If you have ever been in a hail storm with softball size hailstones coming down, or been inside of a tornado greater than F4, then you will really come to appreciate the weather here in the Sandhills of North carolina. Very mild the weather is
Best doughnuts in Pinehurst! They are so tasty, huge, lots of flavors to choose from, and well worth the price. Make sure to get an apple fritter. They have a few sizes of fritters, with the large one easily feeding 5-6 people.
Love this place my go to hands down. Great quick service always great tasting donuts and absolutely love the variety they have. Them being yeast donuts give them a way better taste in my opinion then over flour raised donuts. If your in the area a definite go to
I had only tried donuts from Southern Angel Donut Co. before today... which have always been fantastic! The powdered sugar long john is delicious. The GINORMOUS apple fritter is great... but that might be the best cinnamon roll I've ever tasted!!
Southern Angel Donuts: Located in the heart of Pinehurst, NC, Southern Angel Donuts serves all of Moore County using old world recipes and hand formed techniques. The shop offers a plethora of interesting flavors, but seeing as I had a lot of food to try while visiting the area, I kept it to one. Peanut butter is a relatively unique flavor and one of my favorites from other doughnut shops that I've visited. I thought the texture of this yeast doughnut was exemplary as it was airy with a nice amount of chewi
These are as close to VooDoo donuts as you?re gonna get. 100% was worth every penny. 20$ for a mix & match dozen. Definitely the best donuts i?ve had around this area. Coconut topped donuts are killer.
You can't beat their maple-bacon doughnuts! You can eat on their huge, delicious apple turnover all day.
The donuts are soft and delicious! Service was great and fast. The two women working there were very friendly and welcoming!
Love the apple fritters. But have been very disappointed in service the past two visits. Twice we have ordered 10 fritters to arrive and find our order has been lost. Today we had given them 2 weeks notice. Even had talked with the manager on the phone. Order had been misplaced. We were offered to buy the last four left in the display case. Will continue to patronize, but not sure we will ever try to place a large order again. These were for guests who are disabled in a care facility. We live in Sanfor
Person working was fantastic, listened to my daughters wants, and helped her pick the best donuts. Everything was fantastic.
Very nice people and good doughnuts-lots to choose from.
Delicious and fresh donuts. I enjoy their unique shape with large holes in the center making just the right amount of glaze. I ate the white sprinkle donut before taking a picture. ??
I called the store and asked about the ingredients of their plain glazed donut and the lady kept talking in circles avoiding the answer!!! This shouldn?t be a secret what you feed kids!!!!!! Stay away who knows what they put in their donuts it?s a mistery concoction
Every time i come into town, I always stop here to get the apple fritters. Don?t get me wrong, the donuts are fantastic but the apple fritter may very well be the best pastry i?ve ever had. Do yourself a favor and get some fresh in the morning, you won?t regret it!
Fantastic donuts and service! The fruity pebble donut and apple fritter are my favorites!
We just moved into town and it is sooo good /dangerous to be living so close to this place! My wife always struggled to find a good, classic sour cream cake donut and this place finally delivered! The long John?s have this incredible marshmallowy filling that is to die for. It?s going to become a weekend tradition to swing through and grab one with some coffee while we live here!
Southern Angel Donuts are always fresh and always fantastic. Staff is super friendly and prices are VERY decent for what you get (these donuts are HUGE). My last visit was Valentine's Day weekend when I ordered my husband some of the heart shaped donuts, along with some other favorites of ours. I really enjoyed being able to place my completely customized order online the night before so that all I had to do was pick the donuts up the next morning. I'm a fan for life. If you're in the Pinehurst area, whethe
Love their doughnuts. Specifically the glazed lemon, raspberry and strawberry filled. I?m not a fan of their maple. My favorite is the custard filled with chocolate icing. Although the maple bacon is definitely worth a try. My kids especially love the pink strawberry flavored doughnuts with the fruity pebbles sprinkled on.
Very disappointing! I thought they used to have the best cake donuts in the area. I asked if they were fresh. Because last time it didn't taste or feel like it. More like (at least) day old. I had a glazed blueberry and a sour cream. Hard. Crunchy, but not in a good way, more like way too dry. Like cooked way too long. I prefer to support local independent business. But you've got to be at least comparable to the other options. They've not measured up in my last two visits.
Awesome little donut shop and super yummy. Love the owner, she is always welcoming and friendly. Crazy variety and fun options.
I wanted donuts one morning while in Pinehurst, NC. My Mom lives nearby and suggested this place. She said I better go early because they tend to sell out. I went around 10am last week. My Mom wanted an apple fritter because she said they are as big as my hand. She was correct and it was done perfectly and tasted amazing. I tried a free donut hole sample while I looked at all the many options. I got a chocolate cake donut with no icing. I loved it and it was larger than I anticipated because I was full afte
Great donuts. Usually good service. Last time I was in, two employees spent five minutes on a delivery order while three people waited for donuts. Do not know who the delivery was going to, but you ordered dark roast coffee. They ran out about two thirds full, filled the rest with regular coffee. Glad I had already poured mine, just waiting to get my donut and pay, lol.
Good donuts and good prices! Cute little shop in Pinehurst!
First time here & the donuts are amazing!! A local Mom and Pop shop, everything is fresh & made in house with a yummy selection. If you're ever in Pinehurst and want good, fresh donuts with down to Earth service, you must stop by Southern Angel Donut Co.!!
Saw the sign, so I thought I would stop in to buy some donuts. The prices are very high, and the donuts were awful! I had a blueberry cake donut, and it was hard, dry, and lacked flavor. Got my husband an Apple fritter, and it was obviously left in the oil too long and for too low a temperature; it was all oil around the edges, but the very center was not quite done. It also seemed stale. The $2.00 price tag was ridiculous. I only bought the fritter and a half a dozen donuts; I am glad I didn't buy more. Si
This is hard because I REALLY love the donuts, proximity to my home, selection, etc? but the worker, Ashley, ruins it. I usually chalk it up to it?s her personality but my last interaction was unbearable. She?s really mean for no reason.
Their donuts are not like anything I've ever had. Someone gave them a bad rating because they were over indulgent but if you're eating donuts isn't that the point? It's hard to explain how these donuts are so much better than anyone else but they are soft, rich and extremely not good for you. They are a bit expensive but it goes with the old saying you get what you pay for. If you haven't tried Southern Angel you need to give them a go just once because you really don't know what you're missing.
Great little out of the way spot for a remarkable donut treat. Try the s?more donut, it?s yummy. The donuts are light and fluffy, not overly sweet. Defiantly, a win in my book. The staff is so sweet, the location is clean, and there is an outside sitting (limited) area.
Okay! When we first moved here, I thought these were ther best donuts around... we're from New York, so nothing compared to donuts and pastries from back home. But we've had Grandma's and Duck's... but no one knows how to fill donuts correctly... and NY is just not about topings... but all about fillings too!!! But as times gone on... they've started to suck. Their giant apple fritters are always burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. And as of late... they've been selling old donuts... this is a maj
This is the third time we have bought donuts from here and they were just ?meh?. This morning we ordered 2 apple fritters and 3 donuts. The apple fritters are huge a d because of that they have to fry for a long time to cook the dough inside. So the outside tasted over fried and the inside has next to no flavor. And there?s hardly any apples. The filled donuts were ok. I guess we will have to find a different donut shop.
5 stars (before 12pm) - This is undoubtedly the best donut shop in Moore county. My absolute kryptonite ?I never leave Pinehurst without having at least a dozen. Southern Angels has an incredible variety of every flavor you could think of, but my personal favorite is just the original glazed. (This is how you know they're good). Their only downside is for the majority of the time, their inventory is very cleared out by late morning (as they should be). However, their management is good about pre-packaging
Good selection of donuts. It was my first time there. The apple dumplings were so huge it filled us up for lunch. They were extremely delicious as well. We will return. I would recommend this place to anyone.
Excessively sweet. They use way too much sugar in their dough for at least on their yeast pastries. Frostings also. So sweet it hurts your teeth. My wife can not stand them. One bite and she knows where the donut came from. She asks me to never get them again. It's simple, cut back on your sugar in the recipe. You will get a better product.
This place is awesome. Highly suggest the cinnamon crumb donut and bluberry cake. They do call ahead ordering and the staff is very nice!! So many other unique donut options as well!
I?d been waiting to patron this business after all the good things I?d heard. The donuts were very fresh and delicious. Light and fluffy and not too sweet. Very nice people ad very welcoming.
My 10 yr old daughter didn?t have school today. I was off work today so we had a daddy/daughter day planned. The first thing she wanted was donuts. We live close to SA so we went on over. We ordered two frosted donuts with sprinkles, a medium coffee and a milk. The woman behind the counter stated that she ?thought? they were out of milk. I asked if they were out or not, and she just replied with ?I think we?re out?. At this point I turned and saw a glass front cooler with various juices, etc in it. So I ask
I'm a sucker for their mystery boxes! Outdoor seating is cozy as well. Blueberry cake is my favorite!
Every time I go by Granny?s Doughnuts in Aberdeen the place is always CLOSED. Sometimes as early as 9:30. One day, while in Pinehurst, I stopped by this little doughnut shop called ?Southern Angel.? When I walked in the front door I was greeted by one of the happiest and most genuine person I?ve ever met; Bee. They have so many different doughnut creations and textures that they easily beat the big brands. If you?re a local or visiting the area ?Southern Angel? should be a part of your morning routine.
This place in incredible, so much so that it is easy to take it for granted since it is so unassuming in a small place in a small town. In addition to a great variety of scrumptious doughtnuts, they have a world-class online ordering system.
I Like So.Do. their donuts are large like Dunkin'. The batter taste (to me) like that of KrispyC, but caters creativity like Duck and home owned like Granny's. They even have a PB&J donut!!! But the Lemon filled are in my opinion " The Best!!"
Sweet baby jesus...BEST APPLE FRITTER IVE EVER TASTED!!! Not only is it the size of my face, but its crispy on the outside and still moist on the inside, everything it should be and more! I've been in the food industry for 10 years and would love to have a little spot with the same vibe as this, you know they are passionate about what they do, and they do it well! You gotta check this place out!
I came to visit my Dad and was staying at hotel nearby. I saw the sign and walked inside. I was greeted with a friendly smile and a sample. I was hooked. I got 6 glazed donuts they were pillows of pure heavenly bliss!
Hands down the best donuts in town!!!! Not only are the donuts delicious, but the staff are so sweet and welcoming!!! This is definitely a hidden gem I'm glad I found
The absolutely best glazed donuts anywhere - except for fresh, hot Krispy Kreme - which we don't have here! Lots of different flavors, too.
Absolutely delicious donuts! I tried the vanilla coconut, the chocolate cream cheese, and the cinnamon roll. All of them were huge and very well-priced. I can?t wait to visit again!
Great doughnuts and nice people. Listen when a chubby old guy tells you where to find a good doughnut, trust him.
I really like this place. Their stuff is high dollar but worth the money. Every time I've gone they had a decent selection too. The one with cocoa crispies on top is the bomb.
Delicious! The regular glazed doughnuts are the best! They taste kind of like Krispy Kreme glazed doughnuts, but on steroids??
Donuts were amazing. Lady at the counter was friendly and enthusiastic.
Great donuts, love the fluffyness and the taste is the best. Staff is super friendly and helpful !! And them donut holes never make it home!!
Southern Angel Doughnut co made my son's birthday party a very special one with the Dounghut cake that they made for him! He loved it, and so did his classmates!
Pretty darn good. Not mass produced like dunkin and not overly sweet like duck and granny?s. 4 stars because there?s no espresso machine. Gotta have that in the doughnut game these days
The Donuts were pretty good, but they messed up our order. :(
Very friendly and very good old fashioned donuts. I highly recommend if your in the area.
This shop rocks, the Apple Fritters are awesome, the blueberry doughnut holes are really special. Worth the trip, from anywhere!
Very good donuts and coffee, too! Loved the chocolate covered donut with cream cheese filling. Very unique!
Great doughnuts! Bye bye Duck's...... There's a new kid in town...... Apple Fritters are amazing! Very welcoming staff and owner is super dedicated!
Best donut I?ve ever had!!! So moist and tasty with lots of different flavors. I?ve never had a donut hole that was so yummy!!!
Best donuts I've ever tasted! The staff is suuuper friendly. I've always received fast service.
Best donuts around for sure. You are going to get what you pay for, these are not your twenty five cent donuts, but they taste great.
Great lil place. Fresh donuts good variety, interesting flavor combinations. Will definitely b back
Best donuts around!! Super friendly staff! Go early or ya might not get everything ya want!!
Great place to get a dozen. Get there early as they are better at the beginning of the day. Wonderful selection.
Adorable store front, excellent donuts.
Not quite as good as Better Made Donuts in Pittsburgh, but not bad. Good variety!!
Best donuts and service. I stop by, every time I'm in town. Delicious.
We were there on vacation thought the place was awesome the donuts were great and the folks serving them we're just as great!!
Great little place get a donut. Some time they have day old and you get them cheaper. I am cheap what can I say. I always look for a deal.
The doughnuts are very good, but if you don?t get there early the selection is very limited.
Amazing donuts and I found my favorite place for the best (and biggest) apple fritters!!!
The donuts are so good. Nice variety and that staff is great
The Best doughnuts around. I buy 3 dozen everytime I go there.
Well, I'm there for the doughnuts, not the atmosphere. Great doughnuts ??!!!
After tasting their doughnuts, the texture is very close to Krispy kreme.Better tasting than Duck doughnuts.
The doughnuts where awesome,even took some home for later. Still really good. Will go back.
Did not like these donuts. Just way too much sugar. Overindulgent. Even the glazed ones. Nothing beats dunkin donuts.
These are SERIOUSLY the best donuts in town! If you haven't tried them yet, what are you waiting for?!?!
BEST DONUTS IN TOWN! Always amazing texture and fresh. Also great prices and customer service!
Delicious doughnuts and friendly group of ladies that genuinely value the customer Even small conversations are warm and inviting
Great doughnuts and fritters
The donuts were good and fresh!
Donuts were fantastic , needed a pick me up super early in the morning !
This is a wanna be duck donuts that uses thawed tasting donuts similar to Dunkin? horrible all 5 times I?ve been there.
Lots of different Donuts to pick from. All tasted great.
Good but not exactly as fresh as preferred. Maybe due to lack of business or the time if day visited.
My first time here and the donuts was so good.
