Best apple fritters we've ever had! Have had fritters all over the country and this donut shop beats all other donut shops on apple fritters, hands down!

Somehow a dozen donuts and 4 kolaches ended up being almost 40 dollars. Pretty certain we got overcharged by a wide margin.

I stopped by this donut shop and was pleasantly surprised. The donuts were fresh, fluffy, and not overly sweet, which I really appreciate. They had a nice variety—from classic glazed to more creative flavors—and everything tasted homemade with care. The coffee was solid too, making it a perfect quick breakfast stop. The staff was friendly and welcoming, even early in the morning, and the shop itself felt cozy and clean. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Definitely a spot I’d recommend if you’re craving donuts or just want a casual treat with your coffee.

This place is an absolute gem! Every time I stop by, I’m blown away by how fresh and delicious everything is. The kolache is easily my favorite—perfectly soft, flavorful, and so satisfying that I find myself craving it all the time. And the maple donut? Hands down one of the best I’ve ever had. The glaze has the perfect balance of sweetness without being overwhelming, and the donut itself is pillowy and light.
The staff is always warm and welcoming, and the shop has that cozy, inviting feel that makes you want to linger a little longer. Definitely my go-to spot whenever I’m in the mood for something sweet (or savory). Highly recommend!

If you’re looking for the perfect donut, this is the place! Each bite is soft, light, and melts in your mouth. They have both classic flavors and some fun seasonal ones, so there’s always something new to try.

Kolache was raw and mushy, cake donuts soft and no sorta raw as well.. not baked long enough on 2 simple items… icing was wet to touch … missing something? THIS IS WHY the owners bought a donut shop… because they don’t know what they are doing and took the easiest opportunity

Best donut in town, employees are so friendly and the boss is so handsome.
I stopped at Southern Maid Donuts late on a Sunday morning with my wife and son and bought a cake donut, cinnamon roll, glazed donut, and a frosted sprinkle donut, all for only $5 as a fun snack. I was hoping to find an awesome donut shop in Paris, TX, but alas, that was not the case. While the prices were great and the staff was friendly, the donuts were average at best. The cake donut was very soft, bordering on underdone. The cinnamon roll was pretty tasty, basically a glazed donut loaded up with cinnamon. My wife had a glazed donut, which she said was fine. My young son devoured his frosted sprinkle donut- he was definitely the happiest of our group.
I'm hoping that we just caught the shop on a bad donut day. If nothing else, the donuts are cheap and plentiful. We ate in, but there is a handy drivethru if you need a quick donut. Credit is accepted for transactions $5 and up.

My new GO TO donut shop! I’m super picky when it comes to donuts. I want soft, delicious pillowy clouds that melt in my mouth that aren’t just pure overpowering sugar or taste days old. Southern Maids has the recipe for pure sunshine and happiness in a donut! Their donuts are the best! The kolaches are light and fluffy and not dense and doughy like some other places. The glazed donuts are perfectly “maid” 😋. Highly suggest this place!
