Big Daddy's Donuts is the only donut shop around here that opens at 7:00am on a Sunday, other than Dunkin. Between the two, I will always choose Big Daddy's. Walking in, the guy employee was kind and had a sense of humor that made me feel welcomed. I chose six donuts to take home which he packed in a white bag. The donuts were fresh and flavorful. My boyfriend loved the Boston Cream donut. One of these days, I would like to enjoy my donut in the shop with a hot coffee. I will be coming back to Big Daddy's Donuts! read more

Big Daddy's Donuts - Boston Cream, Peanut Chocolate, Chocolate Iced with Sprinkles, Toasted Coconut - Donuts Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Stopped in on a Sunday around 7:45am. The parking lot is small.. it can fit only maybe 6 cars, but there is parking on the nearby streets. I'd say he was halfway through his inventory at this point. So, definitely come early! They have an ATM on-site and a bathroom for customers. There's a small counter with seating available. The man behind the counter was very friendly! I purchased one Boston cream, one chocolate peanut, and one glazed. The menu didn't have pricing, but each donut was $1.50 each. He had fritters and cinnamon buns out that looked amazing. Unsure on the pricing for those. The donuts were delicious!! Would recommend!:) read more

Eeeh a lot of the donuts were stale :( there were 2/12 that were fresh. Very huge donuts and exciting flavors

We were only in Pittsburgh for less than 24 hours and had to hit the road early in the morning. We didn't want a sit-down brunch as we were trying to take precautions against COVID-19, so we were looking for something quick and easy. Donuts seemed just the thing! The friend who my family and I stayed with suggested Big Daddy's Donuts. On Sunday morning, we were able to walk right up and grab a dozen donuts without a wait. The shop is a bit of a hole-in-the-wall, but all that matters is the taste of the donuts. These were pretty good. We got a dozen donuts. The glazed, powdered cinnamon, chocolate peanut, chocolate cream-filled and the Crafton Angel (powdered sugar filled with fluffy white cream) were my favorites. (Promise I didn't eat all of those, but ate some and enjoyed bites of others.) The cake in these donuts is what helped them shine. There are also some tables out front to sit at, though on this rainy morning, we ended up huddling under a covered grill area instead. This spot also has parking, which makes grabbing a dozen easy. This is a great spot to keep in mind for mornings when you want something extra sweet. read more

Big Daddy's Donuts - Butter cake donut! - Donuts Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Stopped by to satisfy a donut craving while passing through Crafton. I got there in the late morning, so I figured their stock would be low. There were still a few options left. I snagged the last long john, though I think Big Daddy's calls them eclairs? Also tried a maple roll, sourdough glazed, and iced cake. It was pretty affordable (8 total) considering the specialty eclair and maple donuts were massive size and would probably satisfy 2 people. The long john was fabulous, honestly one of the best I've had. The dough was very light and it was absolutely stuffed with yummy pastry cream. Sourdough donut was my least favorite, it was kind of hard and dry, but this could have been because it was later in the morning and wasn't as fresh. It's really nice that they have a small parking lot, makes it easy to make a quick stop without looking for street parking. The woman working was friendly and there were a few regulars chatting over coffee. Cute retro style bar to hang out. Probably not the best cafe atmosphere to stay and work though. read more

Nothing beats the service of a "ma and pa" shop. This location was so easy to find, and the shop itself is so very charming. From the friendly service (and the friendly customers), I immediately felt welcomed and eagerly chose a number of donuts to try. The surprise winner donut in my opinion was the toasted coconut (and also, wow, that blueberry muffin). I see a return trip in my future, especially because I wish I'd snagged a cinnamon roll donut. read more

This was the only open donut establishment I found in this area and do not regret visiting at all! The person that ordered before us got the rest of the fruity pebbles so I asked if they had any more. The gentleman and lady working were so nice and said they could make me one. And wow was it heaven sent! We ordered some glazed (2nd fav), sugar, chocolate ring, and jelly filled. All were so satisfying. I'll be back this week for sure! Another note- it has old diner seats that are super cute for a photo op. read more

On a cold snowy, icy day working 16hours I felt my crew needed a pump them up. So I went donut hunting and found Big Daddy and his deelish hole in the middles. I just told the worker that I was tired so pull me a dozen and half please. They were so deelish. Give Daddy a try because I told you so. read more

The donuts were fresh. The service was fast. We got some glazed donuts and cinnamon roll. Delicious.

Everything we got was amazing! Prices very reasonable, and customer service actually a priority. The gentleman behind the counter was happy to help us select what we wanted, and address any questions we had. Fresh, flavorful, & friendly! Will definitely be back. read more

Today is my birthday. I'm a big doughnut connoisseur, so I wanted to try a new place for the occasion. Google says Big Daddy is open Mondays at 6am, and Facebook and Yelp say they are open 24/7. After driving across town, I was immensely disappointed to find that they were, in fact, not at all open. Please update you time listings!!!! read more

Sorry being local if like to support you but the ad just said reasonable prices. I stopped today and got some donuts. Charge was $2.00 each. Sorry I'll have to go to Dunkin . read more

I stopped by Big Daddy's Donuts at about 7:15 a.m. on a Saturday, and tried several varieties of donuts. The shop is definitely out of another era with its decor, and traditional diner counter. The woman at the counter was friendly and helpful. I was surprised that their plain cake donuts were already sold out just over an hour after they opened. I picked up a half dozen (about $5) and an apple fritter ($2.89). There are upcharges for fancy donuts, cinnamon rolls, etc. over standard fare. Frosted cake donuts- They are completely soft (similar to Dunkin' Donuts cake donuts), and were rather moist, but they had an unusual aftertaste that I couldn't place. Because of the strange aftertaste, I would not recommend them. Toasted coconut raised donut- The toasted coconut topping was crisp and flavorful, and the donut itself was pleasantly light and airy, but unfortunately, the donut itself was ultimately lacking in flavor department. Glazed raised donut- A light, airy, smooth texture with a slightly sweet glaze. Overall, an average glazed donut. Apple fritter- A light texture dough with a sweet, syrupy apple filling. While it is very large, it is nothing special, especially when you factor in the $2.89 price. The store opens at 6 a.m., counter to what is listed on Yelp right now. Sadly, I was underwhelmed by Big Daddy's Donuts. The cake donuts were not good, the apple fritter was middling, and the glazed donut and coconut donut were merely average. If you are in the area and in the mood for a donut, your "better" bet is to go to Better-Maid donuts, which is only a five-minute drive away. read more

I've been looking for good donuts for months since leaving beaver county. Found great ones at big daddy's donuts. Im assuming the gentleman that served me today was the owner. He was patient and wonderful to speak to. The shop has a nice family owned feel. Prices were unbelievable as well. This will be my new Saturday morning stop. read more

Hubs stopped in here for a donut run because our girl is missing her Sunday morning church donuts. Stupid Covid-19. Their power was out after a big storm. But they had their doors wide open so I told my husband to get in there!! Sure enough, they had donuts. Yea!! The guy was so sweet he gave my husband an extra 1/2 dozen donuts for free. Also they were setting up bags for putting together lunches for those in need. Small business giving back! Oh, did I mention, they have the best donuts around. Good variety too. Don't forget to try their massive cinnamon rolls and delicious pepperoni rolls. Sorry no pics, because we are them all!! read more

Nice little shop. Check it out...Some creative toppings. I usually go for less toppings but I did try a toasted coconut cream. The toppings were good. The donut was just your every day donut..softer on the inside with a nice buttery taste. The Orea cream, I was told was realllllyyyy good. read more

Big Daddy's Donuts - Oreo cream & toasted coconut cream - Donuts Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

This was only my first time here, but I'm a fan already. I think I need to make Donut Mondays a tradition so it sucks less to drive into Crafton for work. I got an Elvis donut: bacon-maple frosting on top of a banana-cream-filled donut. It was heavenly, though a little sweet. I'd like to have some actual pieces of bacon sprinkled on top to add a little saltiness or some dark chocolate to cut the sweetness. The dough itself was light and the perfect combo of crunchy/crisp exterior with a light, heavenly inside. I wonder if that's how the Crafton Angel donut got her name. I didn't actually look at the menu boards to see the full offering, but there were also Danish pastries and muffins in the case. The price is also reasonable ($8/dozen?!) though they're well worth more than that. The woman behind the counter was so friendly and there was a gentleman sitting at the counter (yep, a counter, like a true diner) who was a regular customer. Both were pleasant and I would have stayed to chat longer and actually look at the menu, but my work schedule would not allow the chit-chat. Maybe next time I can get here earlier - they're open 10pm to 3 pm the next day (usually 24 hours, but the weather got in the way of that). Also - is it doughnut or donut? I insist on the latter. read more

Great donuts with a wide variety to choose from and very friendly staff 100% would recommend

The atmosphere seemed nice. Interior and exterior is clean and well maintained. The day was lightly drizzling, at 9 am would have expected to see more locals in kibitzing. Small lot which would accommodate 4-5 cars. Other local shop is closed on Monday's and Tuesdays so though I would give this a try as a friend recommended. I ordered 3 donuts - pumpkin, snickers and chocolate coconut. All 3 were cake donuts, my favorites. The exterior was soft and not fried crispy as I like this type of donut. Batter not very memorable. Toppings were very pretty and tasted nice. Overall not better than what you could buy at the local gas station. Will not go out of my way to stop here again. If happen to be driving by (unlikely) may give them another try. read more

so I am an Amazon delivery driver, having a rough morning, and I ran into a gentleman at my one stop and he helps me get to the right door and I thanked him again told him happy holidays, an he asked if I liked donuts and I said yes and he gave me the whole box and said here take them all I just stood there shocked and thanked him and smiles... I'm pretty sure he said he's the owner... my mind wasn't there at the time so I didn't think to ask him if it's his shop and whats the name of it... but if he is the owner thank you soo much you don't know how much that cheered me up and the donuts are amazing!!! read more

Was in the neighborhood getting taxes done and went in for a cup of coffee but HAD to leave with a donut because it looked so fresh and good! They did me a solid and made a fresh batch of coffee which gave me time to hear and get the donut that was calling to me. There wasn't a huge selection of donuts but what they had looked freshly made and fluffy and delicious-I ended up getting the toasted coconut cream donut - was light and delightful. I'd totally come back. The guy (maybe owner?) helping me was super nice. read more

After reading some reviews 1 thought I'd check it out. It was a Sunday morning and I came in for a dozen. I was surprised at 9am on Sunday the place was dead. Which honestly was great for me, I do get impatient. The selection of donuts wasn't huge but enough of an assortment to have choices. I got 3 jelly, 3 glazed, 3 chocolate dip, 3 cream. I personally had the jelly and glazed. They were both very good and tasty. They tasted fresh and had a nice soft center. The jelly had ample jelly in it which isn't always the case at other places. A few others had the rest and they all raved how they all loved the donuts and asked where they were from. All in all good donuts at a reasonable price with good service. I will be visiting here again. Looks like they offer an assortment of other goodies, I'll be trying those out in the future. read more

I work in a high pressure office where we barely have time to refill our coffee let alone get breakfast, so when we found out that Big Daddy's Donuts delivered, we were all over it. These guys have always gone out of their way for us, even bringing extra treats like cinnamon buns and muffins. What's great for us is that they take orders at 4:30 AM, so by the time we get going, the donuts are already waiting for us. Not only that, but the donuts are always fresh and sometimes even come warm. My favorite donut so far has been their sour cream glazed donut- yum. I've also enjoyed their Heath topped chocolate donut, the Oreo style donut, and their chocolate donut with chocolate frosting and chopped peanuts- it tastes like a Reese's cup. Their cinnamon buns are fabulous as well. The cream filled donuts are average, and the sugar donuts are just okay, but I would say on average, most of Big Daddy's donuts are above average. Also, I have visited the bakery, and the front of the store reminds me of a 50's diner. There's a long counter with turquoise stools and high top tables along the windows. The guys answering the phone keep threatening to start serving sandwiches, so I'm sure those will be a hit with the patrons there. It's nice to know that there is a local business putting out quality products that rival their big corporate competitors. read more

Love their selection. Owner is nice funny and friendly. Miss the wife who sadly has passed. Support your locals

I Went around 8:30 am during the week. The lady at the counter was very nice and friendly. I ordered a dozen and took them home to my family. I enjoyed the toasted coconut, my husband thought the sour dough was really good and my kids loved the variety of sprinkled donuts. We will be making the trip back! We like supporting local business and it's easy when the product is homemade, super fresh and good! read more

Just mad because according to Google and their Facebook page this is a 24/7 donut place. However, sitting outside at 11:54pm Saturday night and the place is definitely NOT open! I tried calling but got a voicemail. Don't advertise that you're 24/7 if you're not!! read more

Good donuts ... sometimes the selection isnt the best and the service is sometimes better than other times... the girls talk on the phone most of the time so when you go in you feel likes you're interrupting them. Which is bad, I was going to get more donuts but i felt like i was a bother so i only got two... shame shame read more

Best around overall. Great prices. Great donuts (fruity pebbles is amazing). Great eclairs. I haven't tried anything else yet.

I worked here... I was the guy that made the donuts.. coming from the guy that made the donuts it was just OK.. nothing great or special about the place just regular average donuts.. they would come up with some flavors that they thought were unique every once in a while it's ok.. I can't believe this place is still in business.. read more

Get the children out from behind the counter. They were pawing all the cookies! Gross! Got two breakfast sandwiches that were about as good as I make at home. Very mediocre overall. Usually I like a family run business, but the whole crew was there, one was working, and it just wasn't a pleasant experience overall. read more

The donuts are not as expected . Dough was rough . Filled donuts were not even filled , if I wanted an not filled donut I would just went to Dunkin' Donuts. I don't know who wrote in the review that these were the best donuts in Pittsburgh . I don't know maybe they are because I'm from New Jersey but boy what a disappointment. What a shame for such a cute place . read more

I've already been here twice, and I'm sure I'll be back. Both times I came mid- to late morning, and there was still a pretty good selection. Their donuts are moist and fresh. I tried a sugar donut and a glazed donut. Both very good. My husband enjoyed the chocolate cake donut. Donut holes are good too. Cute and clean coffee shop to have breakfast, or pick up and take home. read more

I wasn't aware of just how good Big Daddy's Donuts are until I brought three dozen of them into work a few weeks ago. The donuts went quickly and received quite a few compliments (as an aside, they should really be printing their name on the box for some good marketing!). They have the standard fare but also include the quirky as well (the fruity pebbles donut was a hit). The selection seemed a little sparse when I walked in (6:45 am on a Wednesday) but was still good enough to please. read more

Experience was horrible. Service was rude. Ignored me. I asked what their favorite donut was and the man serving me said "No." I said okay well I don't want any donuts then thanks. Just rude. Not friendly. Would not recommend to anyone. read more
