“Hands down wonderful all around. Highly HIGHLY recommend. P.S. I didn’t realize I need boba tea in the morning in my life, and these lovely beings make it in the morning FRESH!“

“Great sugar donuts. They gave us some freebies too! �“

“We have visited Rings the past few weeks and are always glad we have gotten our breakfast here. The donuts, kolaches, and breakfast sandwiches are great! And they have had great service every time. They greet us warmly as we walk in the door and provide special care for their customers. We would recommend Rings!“

“My sister and I visited Gram’s Donuts one morning before work. Upon entry, we were greeted warmly by the man behind the counter. Despite it being 7 a.m., he was cheery and pleasant. He served us our items and rang us up with a smile. If that wasn’t enough, the kolaches and donuts themselves were fantastic! My sister got a cronut, and as soon as she finished it, she said she needed another. I got kolaches for my coworkers, and within minutes they were all gone! I will definitely be coming back. We love Gram’s Donuts <3“

“Best donuts in Dallas. like that's all that needs to be said. Someone told me about them and I checked out the reviews and was like ok let me give them a try. These are the quintessential donut shop donuts. The kind of donuts that remind you of what a donut was when you were a kid. Fresh everyday, get there early to get the ones you want and kind owners. They always thank you for coming in, they are just such genuine and sweet people.“

“This place might look like a classic hole-in-the-wall at first glance, but don’t let the bars on the windows fool you. They’re turning out the best apple fritters in town—hands down, no contest. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and perfectly glazed.

The shop itself is spotless, the staff is incredibly friendly, and it’s obvious they take real pride in what they make. Prices are very reasonable too.

If you judge this place by the outside, you’d miss one of the best donut stops around. Definitely worth the visit.“

“Thank you for providing donuts for the Oak Cliff Chamber of Commerce event. Can’t wait to come in and try more flavors.“

“Finally went for the first time and my wife and I were not disappointed. The donuts were amazing. Will absolutely be going back.“

“Have you ever had donuts that were touched by an angel? No, really. Touched by an angel and baked by the Lord himself because these donuts are literally the best. They melt in your mouth. The kolaches are LARGE and in CHARGE! The service is top notch and beyond what me would expect from a donut shop in the Dallas Zoo area. I am so grateful I found them on my walk this morning. Not only did they fill my cup this morning, I was also blessed with inspiration to keep moving forward! Run don’t walk to AM donuts. You will be surprised and delighted! Thank you.“

“This is the best donut shop yet! Always fresh and delicious! I got my regular order which is a bacon jalapeño kolache with a plain cake and the plain cake was so crunchy and delicious! Thank you for always having wonderful quality food!
Tete E.“

“I had the potato, egg, and cheese burrito, and a bavarian cream filled chocolate eclair. Would DEFINITELY recommend. Service was fast and happy, even if a bit blunt. Loved it though! Gave it that family-owned feel.

To those that also try the burritos there, definitely get hot sauce! It's delicious, don't get me wrong, but hot sauce would take it to the next level.

Will definitely be back!“

“Donuts were really good and taste amazing. I enjoy that everything was fresh. I find that some donut shops have things sitting out for a while but everything was hot and ready to go. Loved their fresh jalapeño pig in a blankets too. Staff was very sweet and welcoming! Plenty of options as well.“

“Light and fluffy, and they don’t over do it with the icing. Best in Far North Dallas IMO.“

“They make Chocolate Chocolate cake doughnuts! This place knows how to make real chocolate frosting and they do Not add too much glaze! The Breakfast sandwich has seasoned egg and is fresh. They offer quick friendly service and ready to go early in the mornings! 👍“

“What a great and delicious hidden gem for that donut craving! 😋 So good the Dart buses stop for donuts! 😂 They are conveniently located on Spring Valley not far from the tollway so it makes for quick in out for that morning commute.
Excellent variety and if you need more than sweets they have fantastic freshly made breakfast sandwiches! It’s family owned and operated and they are as sweet as the donuts they make! Always smiling! 😁“

“No PHOTOS. FOOD GONE 🫶🏾
The donuts were very soft and fluffy. Chef kisses.
Very delicious.
I had also purchased the bacon egg and cheese croissant. And that too was delicious. I’m glad I made a stop there before going to work and not near home. Will visit again.“

“Got the best sausage rolls ever,,can't wait till they open“

“By far the very best place to get your donut fix ! They have these cinnamon twists that are absolutely melt in your mouth scrumptious alongside the classics like the glazed and chocolate frosted holes. The kolaches are lit af.

If you even think that Krispy kreme could be good, you have not eaten at a donut palace. Same with every other establishment selling supposedly superior donuts m.. no. This place is the best.

Vegetarian options: If you like to eat savory sweet on occasion that are no animals harmed, then get a cinnamon twist!

Dietary restrictions: Probably should avoid if have gluten sensitivity or lactose intolerance

Parking: Super helpful staff, patient and kind.

Wheelchair accessibility: Unsure“

“I've been coming to this location for a while. There's always fresh Kolaches on standby, and Ashia's always a pleasure to work with. Come here if you want a friendly environment with staple breakfast items to get your day started!“

“This place is great! The donuts and pastries are seriously delicious. Always fresh, soft, and full of flavor. You can tell they actually care about what they’re making. I’ve tried a bunch of different kinds and haven’t had a bad one yet.

The staff is always so friendly and welcoming too. They make you feel like a regular even if it’s your first time stopping by.

If you’re looking for a donut spot to start your morning, this is the place. Highly recommended!“

“I enjoyed one of the better sausage and jalapeño rolls I’ve had in DFW here.

There was also a unique croissant doughnut item that had smaller donut hole size pieces arranged to look like a flower… That was really nice

I apologize for eating everything before realizing I should take a picture :-)“

“Truly THE BEST DONUTS IN LAKE HIGHLANDS. The staff was so friendly and nice, I felt like family the minute I arrived. All of the donuts are incredible, but I recommend any jelly filled (SO MUCH JELLY, YES!) and the old fashioned since they are my favorites. Will be returning for all kolache, donut, croissant and sweet good needs in the future. Thank you!!!“

“All I can say is YUM! These are the best donuts I’ve ever tried! There are so many flavors to choose from! If you have never tried them, you are missing out! Best little donut 🍩 shop in Dallas 🩷“

“Always a quick and pleasant experience“

“I’ve been coming to this donut shop for YEARS, and they have truly never disappointed me! So when it came time to help coordinate Lab Week at Labcorp, it was very important to me to support a community-based/local business for such a large order.

They fulfilled 28 dozen glazed donuts AND 28 dozen bear claws for us, and everything was fresh, organized, and absolutely delicious 👏🏽

The staff was professional, kind, and handled a large order with no issues at all. And let me just say these are honestly some of the BEST donuts in Dallas, in my opinion 🍩✨

Thank you all again for helping make our Lab Week special. We’ll definitely continue supporting and recommending your business!“

“Solid local donut shop in the oaklawn area. We got a variety of donuts and kolaches. Our favorites were the glazed and blueberry cake donuts. They both tasted fresh and the glazed was soft in a great way. The kolaches were good and reminiscent of classic donut store kolaches from growing up. Ownership was kind and price was affordable.“

“We had some blueberry cake donuts and a sausage cheese Klobásník and coffee. The cake donuts are some of the best we have had anywhere. The Klobásník was delicious. We only come to Dallas once in a while but will be craving these till we can get some more.“

“some of the greatest donuts and kolaches ever“

“VERY FRIENDLY SERVICE VERY PATIENT AS WELL! THE SERVICE WAS ALSO VERY FAST AS IN SPEEDY GONZALES FAST! IT WAS ONLY ONE WORKER THERE VISIBLE TOY EYESIGHT AND THAT MAN WORKED THAT LINE DOWN HONEY! GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. FRESH PASTRIES AND COFFEE. PRICE'S WERE PRICED AS IF IT WERE THE YEAR OF 1999. I WILL DEFINITELY RETURN MY BABIES EVEN RAVED ABOUT HOW GOOD THE DONUTS WERE AFTER TRYING TRYING THEM OUT. I WILL GIVE THIS FINE ESTABLISHMENT A FIVE STAR RATING. ONLY SAD THING ABOUT OUR EXPERIENCE HERE IS THE FACT THAT WE MADE IT A MINUTE TOO LATE. AS THE SELECTION LEFT WAS FEW SINCE THEIR REGULAR MORNING CROWD HAD ALREADY COME AND SWIPED EVERYTHING UP LOL. STILL RETURNING THOUGH FOR SURE. JUST A LITTLE EARLIER NEXT TIME! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Great sugar donuts. They gave us some freebies too! �“

“Warning: You will come back DAILY esp if you work in the building 💯 💯 💯

The BEST donuts, kolaches, breakfast croissants, coffee/cappuccino, cronuts, and soooo many more and they're all addicting. Quick, friendly service and everything is spotless.“

“THE BEST DONUTS IN DFW. Nothing even close, they are fluffy, soft, and with a perfect glaze. They are the only place I’ve found that still uses real shortening (tallow/fat) over the vegetable shortening (crisco) that most places use. Makes for a far tastier, less greasy, and even healthier donut! Everyone should try Royal Donuts once, please.“

“This place has great donuts. The only thing that doesn’t like where I went is that they exchange prices on the coffee and I really wanted a coffee and the coffee price on board was 1.99 and then they said it was 229 and I really feel I should’ve had the coffee for 1.99 so I didn’t buy any coffee but just to let y’all know that they change prices and they don’t write them up on the board“

“Really good donuts, which is nice for me because it's only a few blocks from my house. If my husband is ever in the dog house, he just runs up to the donut shop as soon as it's open and gets me a warm cinnamon roll. Melts in your mouth! That is the most delicious apology I have ever had. The Kolaches are good as well. It's a hidden gem in the neighborhood“

“We found this place by accident when looking for a donut shop near Peavy/Garland. Now, I drive past 2-3 other donut stores to come here.This is a small, local, mom and pop run store with a wide variety of donuts. They may run out of some varieties, so get here early! They are generous with the icing and haven't shrunk their donuts recently, unlike others in the area...Great, homemade donuts served by a couple who take pride in their work. What's not to love?“

“OMG this is by far THE BEST DONUT SHOP I have EVER been to!!! They are hella good!!! 10 outta 10 Stars!!!! The owners were so pleasant and THANK GOD I live close, cause I don't think I'll go to any other place!!!!!Thanx guys for the awesome donuts!!!!!~Harlee Charamut“

“I always use drive thru because I like to go to a place where they offer convenience for their clients. The donuts have always been fresh any time I go. The lady who I assume is the owner is always very nice with me and always greets me with a smile.“

“It's the best donut in the city ! I'm a regular customer ~“

“I just saw the sign and decided to pop in for a little breakfast snack. I got a large jalapeño sausage kolache, and donut holes. There was a short line and both the lady and man we working fast and efficiently. The donut holes were sweet and fresh. They warmed them up in the microwave which seemed to be a standard procedure. Their service was very fast and the food was very delicious.“

“Small business / family owned place. Ima FAN! I drive by this “hole” in the wall all the time…. And never saw it. But I’m glad I did! Nice smiling folks running the place and what a display of fantastic choices I walked into…. Thank you for what y’all do!!“

“Best donuts in Rowlett! Always fresh with a great selection:)“

“Great sausage rolls! Open very early in the morning until noon, it’s a great way to start the day. The donuts are always fresh with a great price and the warm sausage rolls can’t be beat. The staff are very friendly, and I’m always happy to support a local business.“

“🌸 Fast friendly service. 💜 Lots of love & care put into these delicious donuts!! Nice assortment. LUV the cute decorated unicorn & butterfly shaped donuts. Perfect for a tea party. 👍 Will definitely be back.“

“I stopped by this donut shop with a friend, and it was such a pleasant surprise. You can really tell the donuts are made fresh — soft, not overly sweet, and just really well done. Every donut we tried was good, which honestly doesn’t happen often.

The sausage rolls were especially good — warm, savory, and perfectly balanced with the dough. The coffee was also better than expected, fresh and smooth, and paired really well with the donuts.

What really stood out, though, was the atmosphere. The owners and staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, especially to families with kids. Even though it was busy, they took the time to smile and interact with customers, which made the experience feel warm and genuine.

This is the kind of local spot that makes you want to come back and support. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great donuts, sausage rolls, and good coffee.“

“I used to live in Dallas, and I still miss the donuts from this place so much. Even after moving out of state and living in a new area for five years, I haven’t been able to find anything that compares to the taste I experienced here.

The owners are incredibly kind and generous, always sharing with their neighbors and making everyone feel welcome. The donuts are freshly made every early morning, and their flavor and taste are truly exceptional.

The building may be a bit old, but it reflects the many years they’ve faithfully served their customers. This is truly a special place.“

“This place is awesome the workers are cool and nice you can't go wrong with a good donut my favorite item is the pigs in a blanket yummy and the cinnamon roll you can't go wrong with the service it is great t he workers are nice and cool everyone is cool nothing beats this place it is bussian 😍 yummy“

“Me and my wife always end up coming back to Billy donuts—it’s easily our go-to spot for donuts in the morning.
The donuts are always fresh, soft, and full of flavor. Whether you’re grabbing something simple or trying a few different ones, they never miss. The kolaches are solid too if you want something a little more filling.
What really keeps us coming back though is how consistent they are. It’s one of those local spots you can count on every time—good food, quick service, and a laid-back, neighborhood vibe.
If you’re in Dallas and want a reliable donut shop, this place is definitely worth stopping by.“

“The couple who run the donut shop are so kind. I've been coming here since before I can even remember, now I take my son here at least once a week. The donuts are always fresh and warm, the pigs in a blanket are amazing, and they have a good variety of drinks.TLDR: Good prices, great donuts, fantastic service.“

“If you want local, amazing donuts- go to mustang. They are the kindest, sweetest people. They will learn your name and talk to you. Love going here! Their frosting is fluffy and unmatched to any other place around. If you get donut holes, they will give you extra. Don’t sleep on this place!“

“I drive 20 minutes from mesquite to only buy donuts from this place. This business is amazing I've been going since my parents took me as a child. They are so nice and stuff their eclairs so well and just help in every way. I love these people
