Customer Reviews

Ordered various items. I've been here a few times over many years. The food is always good. The staff is friendly, helpful, and patient. This was my first time ordering inside. The place was clean and nice. My favorite are their donuts, but they have other food items.

Wow!!! This dozen donuts were a Big hit for Mother?s Day! The maple bar is missing since it was taken immediately. If you have not tried one of Sugar Babes? donuts, you are missing out. Highly recommended. Plus they still taste good after bring frozen. PS customer service is excellent!!!

LOVE Sugar babes! Their service is top notch and they?re the friendliest people you?ll ever meet! Especially Frankie!! He is always SO kind! Best donuts around! My kiddos get them every weekend. They have an amazing lunch menu as well. Best salads ever. Almost Taco salad is my jam!! You won?t be disappointed!

Had Goin? back to Cali sandwich and it was delicious? They have a variety of options!

I tried the apple fritter and the kolaches. Apple Fritter: tasty, nice glaze, chunks of apple. Kolaches: nice size, bread a bit thick, sausage ok, not the best in Anna/ Melissa. This place is worth trying.

I had a burrito which was ok. The donuts were ok. Fritters are small and soft. If you are looking for a more traditional, crunchy Fritters, this is not the place. However, the place is clean and kid friendly. They do have a sign that says, "we reserve the right to refuse service to amyone," which always make me wonder about the heart of the business. Also, their prices do not reflect what they post on their website.

Awesome service!! Like always!! We order sandwiches and wow so delicious Thank you so much!

Sugar babes gives you that at home breakfast feel. We got the croissant sandwich and it was so delicious and didn't taste artificial; like they use real eggs and cheese, etc. The service was fast even though there were slot of people. The location could be missed if you are not familiar with the area. i wish this location was also in a closer spot. i can't wait to go back to try more donuts and breakfast food items. If you are ever in the area, i would recommend that you stop by and grab a bite to eat.

I just love sugar babes. They are always so nice at the drive-thru window. The breakfast sandwiches are yummy, and the donuts, always on point. I love sugar babes for it's fast and easy option and the food doesn't taste oily and fatty like order drive through restaurants. I go to Sugar babes about 6 times a month. It's fast, inexpensive and the service outshadows the rest. It's my one stop for donuts and breakfast on the go!

Sugar Babes provides excellent service and quality food (especially the donuts) year after year. You?re always greeted with a smile too.

I have been going to sugar babes since they opened their doors. Not only are their donuts amazing, the customer service and staff are amazing! So grateful for this family owned and operated business.

Their bacon egg and cheese burritos are rather good with real eggs and a real strip of bacon and real cheese, not just a cheese sauce. The burgers are good, they use lettuces leafs rather than shredded lettuces which bugs me at other places. and they seem to offer free donuts which are really very good when you order food. I'm personally not big on donuts and go here for food but the donuts really are good. I avoided going here a long time honestly just because of the name "sugar babes" perhaps was appro

I can?t say enough great things about the people, service, and food. Frankie is the best! They have a great breakfast and lunch. One of the best businesses in town!

I always go for the donuts, never had anything else. The donuts are always consistently good. They have a great variety of donuts. Never had a bad experience there. Keep up the good work!

Our after church go-to on Sundays! Absolutely love the burgers and their tomato soup is incredible. The Spicy Cardinal is my favorite and the fries are crispy and haven't disappointed.

The restaurant was clean and it was easy to order. We received a free donut with our meals and they were good. The sandwich was OK.

We just love this place! Always so friendly and yummy. I?ve ordered speciality design donuts and letter donuts here as well and always perfectly prepared and ready at the agreed upon time. The lunch is good too, I?ve tried their burger and soups. Nice gem of a Melissa business!

You can?t go wrong with anything there. You can order breakfast or lunch. Their breakfast burritos are good and the salsa is homemade. I like all the donuts but my favorite is the coconut one. I love the Popeye?s salad for lunch. People are friendly!

So my grandfather went through the drive thru and I ordered a white iced donut with the white iced donut holes but then when we pulled out and got home we saw only the donut holes and not the donut too so now I'm mad so next time I'm gonna just go inside the drive thru sucks

We?ve lived in Melissa for a long time and we?ve always gotten donuts from here. They are super friendly and the donuts are super good !

Sugar babe is it very good donut shop I recommend anybody to go my favorite girl was cast all the other young ladies that work there are very nice and helpful ??

Hands down THE BEST donut shop in town. ALWAYS exceptional service with great tasting food. They make you feel like home every time you walk in the door or roll through the drive thru. This place has been a fan favorite since they were just the Little Red Barn, and now they have even more options!! Absolutely LOVE this place and all that comes with it!! Frankie?you?re the best! And such a blessing to Melissa!!

Been there a few times, this is a delicious mom and pop donut shop with a drive thru. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Donuts are the best in town? super fluffy and they have a large variety. Another thing I would recommend is the breakfast tacos. The only negative is that their kolaches are a bit stale. Would love to come back for lunch sometime.

Everything here is delicious! The staff are always so friendly! Whenever we do a 5k, we always stop here first!

Delicious donuts! Very clean restaurant with lots of seating. They have an expanded menu of sandwiches, burgers, & salads too!

We love Sugar Babe?s! Delicious donuts and lunch! We have always had top notch customer service here. Thank you!

Every time I have time coming through Melissa I make it a point to stop here. The food is always quality and the wraps are my favorite they are filled up with meat. You get your money's worth for sure!

Fredrico made special donuts for me. The drive thru is incredibly courteous and prompt. And the donuts are wow delicious. Highly impressed!

Sugar Babes is a very frequent experience for me because my jobsite is right next to them. I have to say that they are the nicest people. The food is great! The staff is quick with the orders, and they even have healthy options. Highly recommend stopping for a quick coffee and donut or enjoy a nice leisure lunch.

Frankie and his family have been serving up the best donuts in Melissa for years and years now. The apple fritter is their best item, so make sure and give it a try.

Best donut shop I?ve ever been to.??

Great donuts, staff was friendly and helpful.

Tried them today since another donut shop I go to was closed. I got 2 cake donuts, 1 glazed cinnamon twist, 1 old fashioned donut. All very good, for $4.60.

They are pricey but worth it... get there early for better selection.

Excellent donuts since 10+ years when they were in the little red shed on the other side of the road. Excellent c texture, taste and smell. Getting pricey for whatever reason so don't stop as often. Say hi to Frankie the thin young man.

We were on the trip drove by grabbed some donuts and apple fritters... I regret did not get more apple fritters, they are so good, not over sweet, not too hard, I love it.

Amazing customer service! New to Melissa so it was our 1st to visit so it took us a while to pick out what we wanted. We had been going to the same donut place for 6 years with our daughter. We are so excited to have a new place so close to our new home! The donuts are light and fluffy, full of flavor and pretty! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to continue our Saturday morning sweets with our daughter ?? Can't wait to try the lunch menu! I'm sure it will be delicious!

The employees there are very kind and the food is very good.

Excellent baked goods prepared daily. Friendly and attentive waitstaff. Likely the best apple fritters in North Texas, possibly the state. We had salads for lunch ocne and found them very good and reasonably priced.

Sugar Babes is a very good donut shop. You can get coffee or iced tea (sweet or unsweet). Staff is consistently pleasant and friendly. The donuts are delicious. Prices are very reasonable.

If I could give 10 Stars I would. Fantastic little place and the staff is ALWAYS friendly. Very delicious donuts and some of the best around! I have yet to try the lunch menu, but will be doing so soon!

Great place for a quick breakfast sandwich or lunch! They have lots of options for both! Dine in or drive through or even call ahead! This is a great place!

Fantastic donut shop, I really like their jalape?o kolache.

Fresh delicious food. Huge portions. Reasonable price. Fast, friendly and clean. We will definitely be coming back.

Everything started out well, except the little feminine guy at the window was super rude with his racial slurs. When I told him my food wasn't right he told me not to come back. Sir, ma'am, or whatever you identify as I definitely won't be back because of your nasty attitude. Maybe he's having a bad day, but that's no reason to mistreat a paying customer.

We love Sugar Babes. Its our families go to spot for donuts and burgers. My kids always look forward to seeing Frankie at the window. Its a treat for us all! Thanks Sugar Babes!

All the young ladies that work at sugar babies. The whole entire staff is so nice and sweet. Cass is the most beautiful person you'll know Maria ??

Not many donut places are worth bragging about but dang this place has donuts lighter than air. They are fantastic!! The sausage rolls and breakfast burritos are also wonderful. Can?t wait to try more. We sat at a table and it was a revolving door, fast service and lots of happy people.

Wow!!! What a refreshing stop for donuts (and lots more!). The donuts are super fresh, light and airy. Even the cake donuts that are dense bricks elsewhere were super light here!! The breakfast croissants were amazing! Can?t wait to go back and try the cheeseburgers at lunch!

Absolutely fantastic donuts and great sandwiches as well. A locally owned and operated business with great customer service.

Fabulous Selection, delicious food, and the staff is amazing.

Very impressed with their customer service! I called ahead for some burgers for lunch and when I got there they had a big group of teachers there for lunch. Took 30-40 minutes to get my food. Without me complaining or say anything, they refunded me my money, gave me free drinks and a box of donuts. That is great business ethics and I will definitely still come here just for that big picture overall! Thank you!!!

I highly recommend Sugar Babes Donut shop! Everyone that works there are so sweet and friendly. Just if you go on a Friday or Saturday morning expect a little wait. I think I've only had one time that I waited for about 15 minutes in the drive thru but when I got there the line went from one side of the building to the other. I would have went in but the parking lot was full. I promise it was worth the wait time since our Donuts were warm. Their donuts are amazing no matter what but if you get one that's st

This is one amazing little donut ?? shop and deli ??!!! Saturday morning donuts is one thing but they have got it going on when it comes to the deli side of the menu. If you?re a plant based foodie they even have a few choices for you! Salads?? are really interesting and they have a huge burger ?? selection-including a bean burger. Easy to get to on 121 in Melissa, this is a definite go-to for healthier options. Next time I?m in I?ll review their over the top fantastic smiling crew that always makes you fe

The donuts melt in your mouth. I bought the Happy Birthday donuts super cute and delicious.

Happy Birthday donuts turned out even better than I thought they would. The kids loved them!

Visited in the morning for donuts. Ok but nothing special in that regard.

Hands down my favorite place to grab a burger any chance I get. I try the lm everywhere I go and these are amongst the best I?ve ever had. The staff are wonderful and you always get a freshly made donut with her meal. Best place and great prices. You gotta check this place out if you ever get a chance.

Great little donut shop. Best apple fritter EVER! The cruller is also fantastic and the breakfast sandwiches ??mmm mmm good

Tried them this morning... super friendly..fast drive thru.. love the window of donuts. Good to see.. had all selections.. an the donuts melted in my mouth.. driving over 10 minutes was well worth it!! I'll definitely be back!!

Host a couples shower and every single person at the party raved about how good the sandwiches were. Personal favorite was the chicken salad sandwich. Everything was full of flavor and tasted extremely fresh. Definitely am going back to this place!

Top of the line, without a doubt best donut I?ve ever had! The donuts are soft and delicious. Beautiful atmosphere and you can tell that the staff cares about their product and their customers? experience. Highly recommend this gem!

Sugar Babes has had the best Donuts in Melissa for more than 20 years. Their new store has a great layout with a dining room as they offer breakfast and lunch dishes. The staff there is friendly and quick to fill your order.

The donuts are fresher than compared to other donut shops. The staff seem helpful and nice. They also have a drive-thru that extends to the back of the shop. Highly recommend!

OMG we love their doughnuts and breakfast sandwiches, but I got the privilege of having their salad at a PTO luncheon yesterday and it was delicious. I had a chicken salad with walnuts and bacon and it was so good. I will definately be coming to get a salad again on my own for sure.

I usually don?t like donuts so to say that this donut shop is fantastic is a total understatement. This place made me LOVE donuts. I was craving them for a solid week after eating there. They have the absolute best donuts I have ever tasted.

Absolutely delicious, pillowy donuts! The cinnamons twists are our favorite! Fast and friendly service!

They're ALWAYS friendly and the food, not just the donuts (though those are delish) is great. I lice the chicken salad & tortilla soup!

Cute, clean cafe with DELICIOUS donuts that could compete or surpass even Krispy Kreme! Friendly staff and prompt service always. So popular that they moved from a small drive through only red barn, to a full cafe with lunch and dinner options. If you eat in, it's my understanding you also get a free donut! I haven't tried any lunch options besides the chicken tortilla soup, but it was delish! I also order my son birthday donuts from here every year. They can spell anything out for $1/donut. Always makes hi

Stopped for quick bite en route to meet the teacher. The sandwiches were delicious and we were blown away by variety of menu. We will be back! The Hollands

I?ve always loved Sugar Babes, and am so happy to see their growth from the mini-barn to a full fledged shop. Staff are always so sweet. I had their Back to Cali with the tomato basil soup last night and am tempted to have it again tonight. Sometimes they?re out of certain donuts when it gets later in the morning but who can blame them for being busy? Swear by this place!!

10/10 amazing service, donuts !! Don't even get stated on the tortilla soup !!!! YUUUUMMM

Order is often wrong especially if you order ahead. But can be wrong when order in store. Service is indifferent and unfriendly. Food ok but not great. Jelly donuts are very good.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS FAMILY OWNED SHOP! Very kind service! I sometimes call my lunch or dinner orders in and they are ready so fast, less than 15 minutes!!! I plan on trying the whole menu because everything has been absolutely delicious and made fresh to order! The black bean patties and chicken breast sandwiches are phenomenal here. Huge variety of artisanal salads, soups, sandwiches and burgers that have such fun and cute names haha. Don't get me started on the breakfast food here! The fried egg is prep

Fast and fresh morning snacks. Cute little prefab large shed of a building with wrap around drive. Friendly service and kolaches were good and didn't have any of those hard pieces of cartilage in them like the places that use the cheap sausage links in them. Good place!

Excellent donuts! Get there early on the weekends, as they tend to run out of some donuts before 9:30 am. The teenage boy that works the drive thru window is always very nice and accommodating.

Best donuts I've had in long time! This is now our go to spot every Friday. Service is always with a smile. Everything is made with care. I work out extra hard just so i can eat them.

What a great place to get donuts! Even if you come from McKinney or Anna! Today I was able to get some special made treats for Valentine's day! Nice people and quick drive thru! Definately try all the different flavors!

The place to come if you want to kill your diabetic friend. Donuts are a good texture but extremely sweet compared to other donut places - even Krispy Kreme. Croissant is good but the sandwich fillings are mediocre, and the biscuits are below par.

Sugar Babe's have the very best burgers in town, hands down!! I have always had hot, fresh food any time I've ordered. Great service, great food...what more could you ask for!! :)

The sweetest staff! It's always clean, inviting, and the Big Tex sandwich is AMAZING.

There's almost always a line at this little drive through (and walk up) Donut shop, but it always moves quickly. They have my favorite kind of donuts, chocolate with coconut! They have other breakfast items too.

My go to for my going back to Cali breakfast and donuts. Love the great customer service. There is one particular person I can't remember the name but always at the window with an amazing smile.

I?ve been going Here for over 11 years! I love their Doughnuts! I think it?s funny people complaining about it lacks flavor it?s not a upscale doughnut shop if you want that then go to Dallas not Melissa!

Average doughnut place, cute for the area but the dougnut selection is limited and sparce. J haven't had lunch there but I have heard it's good. The employees are great and the store is warm and inviting.

Great staff and great donuts! Some of the best donuts I?ve ever had! The staff is always friendly and kind! We?ve found out new donut spot!

Great donuts! It's just a little barn, but man oh man do they make good donuts. My family that visits from Missouri always loves to stop here when they visit. Fantastic place to grab breakfast.

I couldn't tell you enough how good this place is. Coffee (dare I say) is better than Starbucks and their donuts are always fresh. I come here every Sunday and sometimes twice a week. Definitely recommend
