Hot Donuts is exactly what the name promises--hot, fresh, delicious donuts served by some of the kindest people around! Every employee we've encountered has been incredibly friendly, patient, and thorough. We've only scratched the surface of their menu so far, but we're determined to try everything they offer. The cinnamon twist donut is hands-down my new favorite donut. If you visit, do yourself a favor and order one! We also tried a maple-glazed donut, which was a fantastic choice and something new for us. Every bite was fresh and flavorful. The food isn't limited to donuts either. Jason tried the tacos on one visit and the bulgogi on another, and both were absolutely amazing. It's rare to find a place that does both sweet and savory this well. We still have our eyes on the cinnamon rolls and cronuts, and honestly, my mouth starts watering just thinking about them. We're already looking forward to our next visit and the many visits after that! Do yourself a favor: follow them, visit them, and bring your appetite. The donuts are truly outstanding, and this is the kind of local business that's easy to support. read more

I appreciate the suggestion by fellow Yelpers. Finding a good donut is hard and this place has some pretty good dough. The donuts are light and airy. The hangry dogs are all so good and filling. I have had the boudain, all beef, and brisket. The Texas muffin also light fluffy and covered in bacon bits, sausage, cheese, and jalapenos. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. read more

What an interesting donut shop! Nothing boring about their menu, definitely not your ordinary selection. Fruit topped, variety of cream filled, lots of kolache choices and the standard fare, as well. Service was with a smile and prompt. The sweet owner gave me a sample of a new specialty donut, on the house. It was really good! The interior was clean and the coolers had a large selection of breakfast drinks. As donut shops go, this is a 5 star all the way. I will definitely return and highly recommend. read more

Definitely my favorite donut shop in all of DFW. I really love donuts and kolaches. I've tried most of the "top" places in DFW and honestly, Hot Donuts is definitely my favorite. Particularly love the creme brulee donut. This place never disappoints. Well, I take that back. It is a bit disappointing that they no longer make the Elmo donuts. But outside of that - no complaints on my end :) read more

Loved the cronuts! You will not be disappointed Staff was super friendly too! Go early because this place can get busy. read more

Hot Donuts - Cronut - Donuts Near Me - Rowlett, Texas

We stumbled onto Hot Donuts driving through Rowlett. The donut shop was packed, super friendly service, and treated the kids with a little extra. I loved the variety of donuts, cronuts, kolaches. We got donuts and donut holes that were warm-fantastic! We will be back! read more

We've been coming to this donut place for years. They have fantastic donuts and friendly service. I love their simple staples (chocolate, glazed, cinnamon rolls, donut holes) as well as their new additions and breakfast sandwiches! You can't go wrong with any choice here. read more

The donuts are so good my customers in Weatherford and McKinney love them and only want me to bring them donuts from here, nothing else compares. The donuts are soft and fantastic warn. They also have great kolaches and small sandwiches. Ask for Kevin. read more

First off, this place is meant for you to take your donuts to-go. The tables are pretty much where employees can take a break after a hard days work! Sure, every once in a while you'll see someone take a seat and wait for a fresh batch to come out. It's just completely unacceptable to leave poor review on something that someone has no clue on what they're talking about. Because goodness forbid if someone used an old newspaper they had laying around to soak up any water that might leak from the roof it it rains. Most places do that. Now for the REAL review!: These are the best donuts in this country!! Literally the best! It's definitely a hidden GEM! I've been eating them for over a decade now and I've lived all over the country and visited many donut shops and this place is by far the best! No donut can compare! Hot is in the name for a darn good reason too! When they're always fresh and hot they just amazingly melt in your mouth! read more

I don't eat donuts that much anymore but when I do get that craving this is the place I go to. The same family has owned this place for over three decades. The donuts are top of the line. I really like the cinnamon rolls. The son now runs the business after his father passed away. He and his mother are some of the nicest people you will meet. They greet you and make you feel at home. As for ambiance, this is a donut shop. It is extremely clean and well run. read more

If you go into a place with a bad attitude and a penchant for drama, you probably won't have a good experience. Oh my God! They had the nerve to take out the trash and leave the lid on a table! Let me take a pic of it! Weird. This place is clean, cheap and delicious. If you come here to eat a breakfast pastry, you'll love it. If you come here just so you can write an exposé about a trash can lid, you should really get a life. read more

Everything keeps changing in this area, but this donut shop still stands after 20+ years. Better than Duncan, better than Krispy Creme. Better than any donut shop in the world. Maybe it's just because I've known the owner since I was 8. If there is one shop in the world that I would take to outer space with me to explore the universe, this would be it. Yum yum read more

Fantastic traditional donuts! Amazing to see that this shop is still producing an excellent product while having been in business for over two decades! Service is great. Don't forget to grab some kolaches/ sausage rolls while you're there they are great! read more

I wanted to leave one of my favorite local businesses some love during the chaos that is COVID-19. My husband has eaten donuts here since he was a kid. Once we moved back to Rowlett as a family, I was introduced to the amazingness that is Hot Donuts. Donuts here are SO FRESH and the kolaches are perfectly made. I've never had a donut here that I did not drool over, if I'm being honest. If you're hungry for donuts and are in the area, please stop at Hot Donuts!!! read more

This is the best donuts I've ever had in my life! I've been going to this place for 5yrs now and I moved away farther and still drive the distance for these delicious donuts. The customer service is phenomenal compared to the other donut shops in the metroplex. You must try these donuts! read more

Tried this place because of the good yelp reviews. The good: it is a donut shop, and the donuts are good and inexpensive. The bad: the young man behind the counter didn't ask if we were eating here or taking it to go (we were eating there), so we wound up having to use an open napkin as a plate/placemat. There are two tables in the place, and both were covered with remnants of the last person's meal (which he saw me wiping off before we sat down, and didn't come over with a cloth or anything). If that wasn't enough, one table had the garbage can lid sitting right in the middle of it (gross!). The young man was absorbed by his phone too much to actually put a bag in the garbage can, clean off the tables, or pretty much do anything other than take your money. The bagless garbage can had a folded newspaper in the bottom (to absorb any leaks?) that was from March. Yes, March...this is October. Disgusting. I hate to leave bad reviews, but I don't trust a food establishment where employees think garbage can parts on the eating surface is an ok thing. read more

I've lived in rowlett 15 years, and these are far and above the best donuts in Rowlett, maybe even Dallas!! They are always fresh, moist, and usually still warm! I consider myself a donut expert, and I've tried them all in rowlett, and various other places all over Dallas, and these are the best. Owners are extremely nice too and they always throw in a couple freebies! read more

Just an Average Donut shop to pick up a good snack.. Nothing truly amazing.

I really enjoyed the donuts. They were soft and warm. Only problem, they were rather small in size. The customer service was mediocre. Not quite the greet in the morning. I purchased 10 donuts and 4 jumbo pig in blanket for staff for 14 bucks. Just to give an idea. read more

I was impressed. The location is small and hard to find parking but the donuts are always very warm. There is a good variety of donuts. I love the chocolate cake ones! read more

These donuts are above the best! Family owned and operated. Been eating here over 17 years. Fresh and hot, and their dough is unbelievable. Love them. read more
