The people are kind as always, and very generous. I went to stop by and grab a half a dozen donuts, and the lady they gave me two extra donuts which I’m greatly appreciative of. These are the best donuts around town and our homemade with love and care.

Finally Tried It — Totally Worth the Hype!

This was my first time visiting Paul’s Bakery, and after hearing so many great things from friends and locals, I finally made it — and I’m so glad I did! From the moment I walked in, I could smell the sweetness in the air. Everything looked so fresh and inviting.

I can happily say: it did not disappoint. The pastries were soft, flavorful, and made with obvious care. You can tell why this place is so loved in the community. Whether you’re a donut lover or a cake fan, there’s something here that will win your heart.

I visited Paul's Bakery for the first time today, and I absolutely regret not having gone before! I ordered 4 dozen donuts and couldnt resist eating one in the car. Jelly filled glaze donut, and it was absolutely delicious, a freshly made donut!

I ordered bunny foo foo cupcakes for Easter for the first time and they were absolutely delicious. I will order again next year.

Paul's bakery has an amazing deal going on. I got 6 of Paul's delicious Glazed Holes for free if I ordered a cup of joe. I left that place wanting just one more taste of Paul's Glazed Holes (trademarked)

We purchased a dozen donuts from Paul's bakery. The quick response is that the donuts didn't disappoint. Long response: In fact, these donuts are tied for first place with a donut shop from my hometown. Paul's Bakery smells incredible as you open the door to walk inside the store. To your right you will see cabinets full of cakes. To your far left you will see shelves lined with homemade pies. In front of you, more toward the center left you will be awestruck over the variety of donuts to choose from. The donuts 🍩 😋 😍 were very fresh, thick, light, and fluffy and tasted great.

This place is definitely 5 out of 5 🌟.

So glad I finally tried Paul's Bakery about 15 years ago! Who doesn't love a fresh baked donut??!! These treats never disappoint. I appreciate that the donuts are never stale and always full of flavor. Two of my faves are the old fashioned and the coconut. My partner loves the chocolate frosted! I love Paul's French Silk Pie. Devine. We savor each slice. It's always a good day when we start at Paul's.

Tasty donuts, but I would rather have a bagel or a less sweet option. Glad it’s not like Krispy Kreme or dunkin. Good option otherwise.

Truly delicious doughnuts in many formats and flavors, and the staff is efficient, cheerful, and helpful. The cakes and pies are tasty, too. This is definitely a stay-on-your-feet place, though, sometimes with a line that takes 10 minutes to wait through. Wear comfy shoes and bring a happy, patient attitude.

Dietary restrictions: There are gluten-free options, but this is largely a traditional bakery that uses full flour, full dairy, and full nut products as ingredients.

Wheelchair accessibility: This shop may be a bit cramped for wheelchair patrons to navigate comfortably, especially at high-traffic times.
