These are some very tasty treats!…read more We selected a variety of both cake and yeast donuts. First try was the blueberry. This is a cake style and it tastes exactly like a fresh blueberry. I actually hesitated to choose this one, but now I am so very glad I did! It was wonderful. The chocolate on the Angel Cream and Boston Cream was tasty without being over sweet. The yeast dough is so light and fluffy. Both are very satisfying. The vanilla cream in the Angel Cream donut is quite sweet, almost like a frosting The Boston cream custard was nicely done. Not over sweet, nice and smooth. Many of the donuts we selected have a sugar glaze that compliments the donut. The donut itself is not too sweet, and the sugar glaze adds just enough sweetness to make for an enjoyable treat. There is a small parking area behind the shop. Eating-in is no longer an option and the dining room has been turned into a storage area. There are bottled beverages in a cooler, and hot coffee is available. Cream & sugar on a table to add yourself. I would definitely stop by for more donuts from Scotty's when in this area. These are very tasty, light and fluffy donuts.

If you are truly looking for some of the best donuts in the Pittsburgh area, then look no further…read more Better Maid is a locally-owned small business with some of the best cake donuts I have ever tasted. Located on Steuben Street in the West End, this shop dates back several decades. It is located in an unassuming white building, with little signage. However, there is plenty of street parking along with the private lot on the side. This place does not necessarily have set business hours. They have an open time, and go until they sell out. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday they are open at 7 AM, and the weekends is 8 AM. I would advise arriving for the set open time if you are planning to get donuts on any given day. Especially on the weekend, they will sell out within an hour or two (yes, the donuts are that good!!). Plan accordingly if you are planning to stop. It is not unusual for a line to be forming 30+ minutes before the doors open. The plus of getting there early like that is that you will be one of the first served, and therefore able to get first picks! The selection of donuts rotates each day. There is not necessarily a schedule on which this occurs, but they might have a flavor today that they will not have tomorrow. Some of my favorites overtime have been the blueberry cake, pumpkin cake, cherry "sandwich" filled, sour cream, and so many more. I have asked the staff before if/when they would be making a particular kind, and they will let you know if they have an idea, so do not be afraid to ask. They sell cake donuts, regular donuts, long Johns, cinnamon rolls, and other speciality items each day. There are also donut holes, while are quite honestly some of the best I have ever tasted anywhere. They are usually warm and melt in your mouth. Do not leave without buying some if they are available. The value here is unbeatable. With the donuts being homemade and fresh, the prices are the best anywhere. They are even cheaper than somewhere like Dunkin, but the quality is 100 times better. This is probably another reason the people keep coming back for these delicacies. However, note that it is CASH ONLY! When I first started coming here, an older gentleman owned the place. He was so friendly and social to everyone who walked through the door. I always enjoyed interacting with him when I came by. A few years ago, a younger couple bought the business. However, the previous owner still works alongside them, which is cool to see! The new owners have been more consistent with being open during advertised open days, and are active on their Instagram account. This helps with knowing specials, when they sell out, if there is a change in being open, etc. Before, the days were sometimes hit or miss if they would be open. However, this has improved a lot since the new ownership has been in place. I love Better Maid - there truly is not a better cake donuts or donut hole anywhere I have tried in Pittsburgh. Plus, it is local people producing a handmade product, which is something everyone can get behind supporting. I just wish there were set hours sometimes, but that is part of the culture of the business. So, plan on brining your cash and waking up early for these delicious treats.

Awesome donut place! There's a reason people start lining up 20mins before they open every day…read more Donuts are made fresh daily with love and care. They have a great variety of flavors too: glazed, cake donuts, cream filled, frosted, etc. I waited about an hour and 15mins to order, but it was worth it. Everyone in line was very friendly and shared the same feeling, something the staff clearly appreciated with their genuine smiles and service. I ordered a dozen donuts, a variety of their most popular. My favorites were the cherry donut and buttermilk log. The glaze on top was so incredible, sweet and creamy at the same time. The donut itself pretty much melts in your mouth, especially if you put them in the microwave for a few seconds. Definitely a spot for special occasions because of the wait and they run out quickly, but a great experience!

They are nice sized donuts and they have a few tables inside and sell drinks in the cooler if you wanted to eat in. Cute local shop would definitely return and recommend.

Most of the baked goods are randomly available depending on what they choose to bake that day, but you will usually find pies, donuts, cream puffs, various kinds of cookies and homemade breadsticks ready for purchase. The brunt of their customers come in for the hard rolls and buns so it is always wise to place your order ahead of time. I love the little notebook they use to record the phoned in orders. I never grow tired of my visits to this little shop. It is always fun to stop in and see what goodies are available inside the case or on top of their counter. They usually know their customers on a first name basis and the owners, (particularly Mrs. Enrico) usually take the time to engage in friendly conversation regarding you and your family. . I absolutely love the family history and beginnings of this bakery and certainly appreciate all the years of hard work that have gone into turning this business into one of the many gems of the city of Jeannette. Cash only.

Let me be the first to enthusiastically introduce yinz( hey like they say 'yous guys' in Philly) to a rare gem located an hour east of Pittsburgh in the town of Latrobe, Pennsylvania. I am writing about the one and only Powers Donuts and Pastries and their fantastic, passionate, accommodating and kind owner Monica, a US Army Veteran( Thank you for your service) who was active duty and is now sharing this love and drive via her quality and unique baked creations using local ingredients and products. My dear friend Ankit lives in Pittsburgh and today is his birthday. His mother and I decided to send him something at the very last minute.Sadly, Yelp delivery online to Ligonier stated" Oops, there are currently no open businesses that deliver to Ligonier". I did a search and called and e mailed 8 different bakeries and pie places in the vicinity. The only one who responded and within 37 minutes was Monica. She was so sweet and willing to help, make some fresh goodies and deliver them herself. She was so thorough - likes, dislikes, theme - b day or Halloween( Ankit has a 7 year old son), allergies, special requests. Honest is an understatement - her quote for the price for the box of goodies delivered by 4 pm( we spoke and placed the order at 11:52 am) was fantastic!! Payment was via Square. They LOVED the treats which were presented in a beautiful box with cupcakes, brownies and cookies!!! Monica, we can't thank you enough for your love - Philly might be the city of Brotherly Love but you sure showed us all this is Universal love; for your passion, kindness, thoughtfulness and for the delicious and amazing items that made my little brother's and nephew's day a million times more beautiful.
