While in the South Hills, we decided to get a donut snack. So glad we did. They were amazing. My husband, mom and I absolutely loved them. Their donuts are the best. They were especially good when warm. The Chocolate Caramel Crunch, Coconut Island Bliss and Blueberry Streusel were unbelievably delicious. It's too bad that it's not closer. We will definitely be back. read more

Duck Donuts - The Chocolate Caramel Crunch, Coconut Island Bliss and Blueberry Streusel were unbelievably delicious. - Donuts Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Simple concept. Start with a plain cake donut then either choose your own toppings from an extreme list of sweet as heck toppings or their own customized selections. What I like is if you are eating it there or in a short time frame, it's warm and partially crunchy on the edges. read more

I have been to this location multiple times, but I have never done a review for it before I just realized! We went around lunch time, and it was crowded, but the workers were friendly and organized getting people in and out of the store. We ordered the s'mores and chocolate covered strawberry and both were amazing and oh so fresh! read more

Stopped here on a Sunday morning after church (~10:45). The service was nice and staff were polite, but the napkin boxes were empty and tables were unclean. I had to ask for napkins. Our donuts were so warm that when we got home to eat them less than 10 minutes later the icing melted off (see picture). The ambiance was stiff, everyone could tell the staff were overwhelmed/stressed. On top of this the donuts are very expensive, no one wants to pay $3 for a donut with half effort icing... read more

Wow! I took my granddaughter to Duck Donuts. They were unbelievable. You can pick your toppings on freshly fried donuts. They have many different options that they can make. You pick what you want, they make it right in front of you and they are still warm. They spoiled me from other donuts. The staff were nice college or high school students. The cashier was very patient with me. The store itself is attractive and clean. I'll definitely go again! Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture, my granddaughter open the box and immediately grabbed a donut and handed one to me. read more

I'm not a big donut person. I'm not one to go out of my way for them, and I really truly think there are better things to get fat on than donuts. Duck Donuts is a little different. They do what I think all the other shops don't, and they have what I think all the other donut shops lack. I really love how their donuts are customizable and made to order. This takes their donuts from boring, stale, unexciting, to something really special. The fresh donuts are warm, delicate, flavorful, melt in your mouth, and texturally delightful. It's really night and day between these and any of the others that they pick off the counter and throw in a box or bag. I also love that you can choose from some tried and true flavor combinations, or if you don't trust them you can configure your own. Overall great experience. I'm still not going to be going out of my way for donuts, but you won't catch me saying no to one of these. read more

Duck Donuts - Strawberry and blueberry something donuts - Donuts Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

We came to this donut shop after the other shop we went to was closed. The hours here were great closing at 7 for all of us all day breakfast or donut people. That wasn't just a bonus. The best part of this place; they make donuts TO ORDER. They have an insanely large selection, are affordable, never run out because they serve as ordered, and have delicious coffee. My mind was literally blown; they came out hot and tasty and fresh as could be. I literally exclaimed like four times about how amazing this was. You can watch as they put your donuts together. The next best part is how adorable they are for all of this. 20$ with tip for 6 donuts fresh made and a large coffee. Go here. You will not regret it. The guy at the register wasn't particularly lively but had a flat affect, which is totally fine because he was at least kind as i kept exclaiming with excitement about his store. He also was kind when i swapped one of my donuts. Overall get your butt here asap. The cold brew was tasty, and they had alternative milk which was super tasty! The pictures speak for themselves and the flavors are abundant and will not disappoint. read more

Been here a few times. Everything from the donuts, coffee, and espresso has been great. We recently made a stop here because it was my son's birthday. He got two donuts and said they were excellent.

Duck Donuts - Enjoying a cinnamon and sugar with chocolate sauce birthday donuts. - Donuts Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I've had better donuts. This was one of the only close donut places to us that we hadn't tried (we've tried Peace Love and Little Donuts already in Northern Michigan). Duck Donuts serves warm vanilla cake donuts and then they're topped with their different variations. I got a maple donut and strawberry but the donuts were so soggy and soft they felt like they fell apart. The maple icing was applied when the donut was still hot so it just melted and soaked into the donut and I could barely taste the maple. Same goes for the strawberry. Not a bad donut place, but I've definitely had better. read more

What did I choose to have for breakfast today? That's right, donuts! I decided to try Duck Donuts because I have never been here before but heard they were very good. When I walked in around 9:30 there was only one person in from of me. She had a large order, but the man at the register was working quickly. There was definitely a lot of options to choose from and they all sounded so good, but I decided to only order a half dozen. The Beach Ball flavor was my favorite, although the Cinnamon Bun was a close second. Each donut is served warm, which I thought was an unique touch, and made them taste even better! The employees were quick to take my order and make the donuts. I only waited about 3-5 minutes for them to be made. Once the donut were made, the employee showed them to me to get my approval that they looked correct. Totally satisfied, give this place a try! read more

I would probably give this place 3.5 stars, but opted for 4 obviously. Staff was pleasant and helpful. My cousins and I stopped here after a day of shopping at South Hills for some donuts. The bacon was my favorite, which I wasn't expecting! I liked the sugar and peanut donuts as well. The regular glazed, sprinkled, and iced just tasted like reheated donuts from dunkin' to me. read more

I was here a few months ago. It was November 1st, 2020. I remember it so clearly, I recall it very vividly. I was starry-eyed, after a socially distant Halloween night. Recounting the shenanigans we had, and the unexpected moments from the late chat. I didn't know why my friends were excited about donuts, but I went ahead when they said "join us." I'm not someone who craves sweets, but I certainly wish I had been more open. You see, their bacon donut was delish! I should have grabbed a dozen! I definitely plan to return soon, but they're closed in this moment. I'll be back by week's end, and I'll try to smell their oven. Donuts ok! I liked their donuts! read more

We went to the South Hills to check out a new restaurant that just opened, and saw on the map that Duck Donuts was nearby. I haven't been near South Hills Village mall in literally 10 years, so my boyfriend and I explored what was around. I have seen so much hype about Duck Donuts on Yelp, so we had to try them. They are located in a fancy strip of stores near Whole Foods. We went in around 3pm and it was completely silent. There were a few people waiting for orders and one girl making their custom donuts. We looked at the menu and waited for someone to take our order. Another girl came out from the back and waited on us. We each ordered a custom donut - so two donuts total. I got one with maple icing and graham cracker crumbs. My boyfriend got one with blueberry icing and oreos. They were cheap - I think it was $4 total. We then waited about 15 minutes for our 2 donuts to be made. They custom made every single donut in the 2 dozen order before making our two quick donuts. It felt silly, especially because we stood there watching while the shop was completely silent. It felt sad in there honestly - not like a donut shop should be. I liked the warm donut and thought the size was perfect. However I think there are better donut options (Thyme Machine/Bitter Ends, Peace, Love & Little Donuts, Valkyrie Donuts, Oakmont Bakery). I would not make a special trip here again. read more

We were trying to go to Nothing Bundt Cakes (which is right next door) but they were closed on Sundays so thank goodness Duck Donuts was there and open or we would've had a very sad little girl on our hands! So Duck Donuts saved my bacon! This was my first time here and the concept is simple - they make one kind of cake donut base and you can customize any way you want or you can select from some set flavors they have created already. We just picked 6 different set flavors which was easier but next time I might just build my own donuts. The donuts were fluffy, warm and delicious and got two thumbs up from our little guest. They had interesting flavors and we enjoyed sampling all six of the ones we selected. My personal fave - maple and bacon -everything tastes better with bacon, am I right??? read more

I have to say I was disappointed this time around. My first experience was great. This time totally different. I ordered a peanut butter paradise donut and a plain donut for my 2 year old. My donut was rather messy looking and of course got on the supposed to be plain donut. So therefore wasn't eaten by my kid. It was 12:30 so really not too late in the day. I had decided to stop here because target's Starbucks was closed and I wanted a coffee. Just a less than awesome experience this time around. read more

Warm and delicious. We stopped in and decided to try the breakfast sandwich. Yes it was good. Yes it was warm. Yes the toppings were over kill! Had the option with some maple and bacon on top. How could I say no?!?! One thing, had an ice tea...not so good. Forget the ice tea, the machine just doesn't make good tea. The staff is super friendly. read more

Duck Donuts is always super consistent! Love their fresh made to order donuts. They always come out with new assortments seasonally and it's fun to see the creativity. I don't recommend the coffee here. Even the cold brew tastes burnt but it's a fun spot to grab donuts when you're in the area. read more

Duck Donuts - Donuts personalized! YUMMY! - Donuts Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

First trip to Duck Donuts and it was interesting. Most of our selections were tasty, but a couple ended up getting a little soggy. They still tasted good, but the texture was mushy. There are many options available, so if you love donuts, I am sure you can find a few to enjoy. They also offer breakfast sandwiches and some coffee drinks and smoothies, but we just had donuts. The workers were patient as we perused the menu. They were not busy, so we had plenty of time to review and decide. Happy with our selections. If you have texture issues, I would recommend eating them in store and not taking them home for later. read more

Quite an excellent Maple Bacon donut. The donut crumb was extremely soft, chewy, and sweet. The bacon portion was substantial. The bacon was flavorful and well-seasoned. The maple flavor added complexity and balance to the savor of the bacon. Overall, this was just a quick sugary flavor bomb that was pleasant and a little bit savory. The mouthfeel was exquisite. You wouldn't go wrong trying one. read more

Oh how I have craved these donuts recently. Knowing that I wouldn't be getting them until a return visit to the Outer Banks usually made me sad. But lo and behold, they started franchising and expanding their reach for people to enjoy. If you've never had Duck Donuts, I feel for you. Seriously, they are some of the best donuts you can have. And this is coming from a person who usually steers clear of donuts. These ones seem different to me. The best way to describe Duck Donuts to you is that it's the Subway of donuts. Yeah, I know that sounds generic, but it is what it is. You go in, order the quantity you want and proceed down the line. You, and your children if you have them, can watch the donuts go through the process of being a simple cake based dough to the rings of delight. Then comes the fun part, toppings. There are a multitude of selections. Last time I was here I told them to surprise me with my dozen and they did not disappoint. I was a little greedy while I was here as well. On top of my dozen I ordered I got an extra doughnut to go, just so I could eat it on my drive. They gave me a maple bacon one and was I in heaven. That sweet and salty combination on that cakey dough was the closest to perfection that you can get from a doughnut shop. It made me happy to know that I didn't have to make a day's trip to get these doughnuts again. It is definitely a welcomed addition to the area for me. read more

We have shopped at the mall many times and always pass this place. Today, we decided to try it for the very first time. I tried the raspberry fluff, midnight madness and chocolate explosion. The donuts are amazing. The chocolate explosion was my favorite. The only things I didn't like was, the raspberry toppings melted because the Donut is hot. The other 2 were fine. The only thing that would make the chocolate explosion better, is to use a chocolate Donut. I will definitely be back because my friends tried a couple different ones and I want to try them too! The staff was friendly and we were able to watch the 2 young ladies assemble our donuts. The cashier showed us where the menu was and they had quite a selection to choose from. So worth the stop! read more

Yep. Still holding at 5 stars. Every time I'm here, this place is immaculate, and the employees are so nice and friendly. Andy, the owner, is one of THE nicest, most down-to-earth people on the planet. Seriously, I've been in the food and/or hospitality industry (as a side hustle) for 30+ years. This man is genuinely passionate about people and his business. I ask myself "Would I like to work here?" when I eat out. Here, the answer is a resounding "Yes!". Andy doesn't ask anyone to do something he wouldn't do. He us everywhere, from running the cash registers, to brewing coffee, to cleaning, and making donuts. For instance, when I arrived at 6:20 a.m., (they open at 6), Andy was putting the finishing touches on decorations. The tropical theme is colorful, fun and festive. After a long winter, we could all use that. (Please excuse me while I put on my grass skirt). read more

I love Duck Donuts and I was so happy when they decided to put this location in Pittsburgh. I love being able to customize the donuts. I always loved Peace Love & Little Donuts, but would sometimes find myself wishing that they were just a little bit bigger. All of the flavors that I've had here were excellent.

I would definitely come here again. read more

Stopped by to try a donut after hearing about it from colleagues. Was definitely not disappointed with the "Beach Ball" donut I got! All of their donuts are vanilla cake donuts freshly made and prepared. They start at $1.60 for a single, then you can go half doz, doz, or 18; of course, the more you buy, the better value you get per donut. You pick your toppings or choose from one of their suggested combos. Since it was my first time, I went with a fun sounding suggestion :) The beach ball had glaze, sprinkles, and chocolate drizzle. It was so fresh and hot, I had to give it a little bit of time before I picked it up or else it would have broken apart in my hands! The donut was delicious, I only wish I'd gotten a coffee to wash it down with. They have a bunch of combinations of donuts as well as donut sundaes, breakfast sandwiches, and various coffee/espresso drinks. The service was also very friendly, with the cashier being very patient in explaining the donut process and the girl preparing the donut being very enthusiastic about her donut creation! Definitely a great place to stop for a delicious treat! read more

Ah-mazing! A big fan of peace love donuts, I was hesitant to try another donut place while in the south hills. Soooo glad I did!!! You choose your donut toppings and the staff was phenomenal at explaining the process and helping with selections. I went with the vanilla icing with toffee crunch/salted caramel drizzle and the churro fluff latte. Yes, you wait maybe 5 minutes for the donut while it is individually dressed to your specifications, but you get to watch the whole process! The fresh donut is carefully curated in front of you and then presented to you in a cute little box. So fresh, warm and crumbly with gooey perfection on top - and the drink was sweet happiness but not overly sweet. If in the south hills or anywhere nearby do yourself a favor and stop in for the most amazing donuts!! read more
