These used to be some of the best donuts in the area… Now that they’re fried in beef tallow they are a soggy oily mess not worth the traffic in the avenue to get to… guess fayco is back to being without a good donut

Multiple times now we have arrived 15-20 minutes after their opening time on Saturday morning and they have had the door locked even though they could see multiple people outside waiting to be let in. Today we waited almost 30 minutes after their opening time to be let in. Food is great but service could use some serious work. Almost left before getting food.

Very friendly staff and a great selection of doughnuts. The peanut butter cream and the apple bacon were fire. Coffee was typical. Will definitely stop by again when in the area.

I’m genuinely so glad Heirloom Donuts made the switch from frying their donuts in seed oils to frying them in beef tallow. This isn’t just a trendy change—it’s one that actually makes sense from a nutritional and chemical standpoint.

Seed oils (like soybean, canola, or vegetable oil) are high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), which are unstable at the high temperatures required for frying. When heated repeatedly, these oils oxidize and form harmful byproducts like aldehydes and lipid peroxides, which research has linked to inflammation and oxidative stress in the body.

Beef tallow, on the other hand, is rich in saturated and monounsaturated fats, which are far more heat-stable. This means fewer oxidation products during frying and a cleaner, more traditional fat source—exactly what was used before industrial seed oils became common. From a food chemistry perspective, tallow simply performs better under high heat.

The result? Donuts that taste richer, fry more evenly, and align better with how real food was historically prepared. It’s refreshing to see a place prioritize both flavor and science. Heirloom Donuts is proving that better ingredients really do matter—and you can taste the difference.

Can not express how thrilled i am they switched to beef tallow instead of seed oils. There is so much research on how bad seed oils are. Outstanding customer service as well. Cameron is the sweetest young lady.

We used to love this place. But most unfortunately they now fry all donuts in nasty beef tallow. They no longer use vegetable oils. We will not be coming backed. We used to come once a month. And every party we had we would buy several dozen donuts instead of cake or cup cakes else where . We will no longer be supporting this business because of their choice to switch to cow fat

They used to be vegan but now fry their donuts in beef tallow. One can only assume this is due to falling for the right wing MAHA movement against the use of seed oils. They lost a customer here.

Didn’t think it was possible to ruin donuts. Came for vegan options and found they’re all now fried in dead animal fat instead 🤢🤮

Delicious. Best cake style donuts, cakes, and pastries in Georgia!

Why did you suddenly change your hours to be closed on Sunday??

Such a special place with outstanding donuts and coffee.

A perfect exercise in hedonism! This is a perfectly clean spot for your sugar surge. The variety of donuts is excellent. I purchased ten and I have no regrets. The establishment is clean and the service is superb. Sometimes you just have to have your sugar.🍩🧁🍰
