    We got half a dozen! A plain glaze, two chocolate creams, a cinnamon stick, powdered jelly and blueberry! No complaints here- they were all delicious!

    Open!! Just bought donuts today! Not sure why this business is marked as closed!

    Delicious donuts! Fresh and made daily! Better than anywhere I've had in a long time. Definitely better than any chain or grocery store. Get there early before they sell out!

    An assortment

    There might be a new king/queen of donuts n the south hills! A coworker brought Madsen donuts to our office and though I was only able to snag one I knew immediately I needed more. We had a tough time deciding, so we got an assortment. There are both cake and risen donuts so there's something for everyone. And you honestly can't go wrong with any of the choices, but our favorites were the cinnamon stick, the jelly-filled stick, the chocolate long John and the powdered sugar. I should also mention that the staff was super friendly and helpful!

    We stopped to try Madsen Donuts for the first time today and definitely recommend them! We were able to try 11 out of the 12 donuts that they carry (the cinnamon sugar sticks weren't available yet). We arrived before they opened and were quickly in and out. It was really cool to see how patient and kind the owners were being with their teenage staff. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The donuts themselves were fresh and delicious. A lot of donuts in the area are greasy and leave that film in your mouth after you finish eating them, but Madsen's oil must be very clean and the right temperature because there was no oil flavor or oil residue. They seem to stick with the tried and true donuts and don't have the same variety you might find at other places, but what they do have are definitely keepers. I thought I'd miss all of the unique flavors, but it was actually kind of nice not to be overwhelmed with options. I've never liked jelly donuts, but I think their jelly donut might be my favorite out of them all! The most impressive are the glazed. Normally a glazed is the last people go for because they just seem boring in comparison, but these were literally perfection. We both agreed we'd go back and just be happy with the glazed. Their vanilla icing is a marshmallow based which is really fun. The chocolate icing is the perfect sweetness and dries to a hard shell. They don't skimp on any of the toppings either which is usually my biggest complaint. The cake is a great texture and the raised are airy and light. Looking forward to going back again!

    My husband was craving doughnuts so we stopped here because I have heard great things! When we went in around noon, we were the only customers in there. As we arrived, we were quickly greeted. He asked if this was our first time here and we answered that it was. He then gave us a quick tour and description of all of their doughnuts. We really appreciated that and it helped make our decisions of what to order. We ended up getting a half dozen of doughnuts and Turner's Tea. He also gave us their business card. He said we could look at their full menu online and call an order ahead to ensure we get what we want before anything would run out. We each tried a doughnut and whew... they were so fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back and we will definitely refer people to Madsen's to cure their doughnut craving!

    Cinnamon Stick, Brown Sugar cake donut, and Marshmallow-frosted donut

    On a scale of documentaries to romance novels, Madsen Donuts is a sweet, homey family tale. A lovely spread of donuts greets you as soon as you swing open the door, and there are many options to choose from. However, my favorite was not there so that's a bummer. I opted to try the cinnamon stick, a cake donut, and a marshmallow-iced cake donut. They were good, but I prefer larger and filled donuts so I likely won't be back. I recognize this is a personal preference. If you love cake donuts, then Madsen Donuts does them beautifully!

    Amazing doughnuts! 12 varieties of delicious cake doughnuts! I suggest their famous cinnamon sticks! They serve Turner's Tea & Nicholas's Coffee two Pittsburgh staples!

    Birthday donuts!!

    Recently ordered some birthday treats for our donut- obsessed 10-year old and we could not have been happier. Not only did the donuts taste better than any other I've had in the region, but the customer service was probably the best I've experienced anywhere in many many years. Amy went above and beyond to explain the options to me and make suggestions that she thought my daughter would love. They even decorated the donut boxes and gave her stickers and coloring pages, all on top of a large order that they had to run earlier that morning. Cannot recommend this place enough!

    I really enjoyed Madsens donuts when I tried them at their original location at Geneva on the Lake. When I saw that another donut shop was opening in Pittsburgh I couldn't wait to try it again. I was not let down. Everything we tried was good and fresh. One note though, go early to have a larger selection to choose from. If you like donuts it is worth a try.

I plan to visit again and update my review after my second experience. I have visited this place three more times, and unfortunately I noticed a clear difference in how customers are treated. The friendliness and attitude of the staff seem to change depending on the person. In my last visits, no one even greeted me, while many other customers were warmly welcomed. The atmosphere and the taste are good, but for me, customer service is more important than both. Because of this experience, I don't think I will be coming back again.

If you're not starting with a quality product you're not going to get a quality end product. If I'm treating myself, I really like when the drinks are special and thoughtful, and they are always thinking through the menu with a rotating selection of interesting, often themed drinks that offer something for every taste. I love how they partner with other local businesses including 19 Coffee Company, Pastries A La Carte, and Becca Bakes. In addition to these pastries there are some light bites such as sandwiches available. They have space to feature some local makers of things like jewelry and once I even bought a little painting created by a dog here to support the dog's medical treatment. That's the kind of local establishment you're dealing with and it's why I love them. All of this and I haven't even gotten to how cozy this place is. The decor is thoughtful with lots of room to sit and work or relax. There's a little book nook area, an outdoor patio, and spaces by the window where you can people watch out Brookline Blvd. The people are always super nice. It's a great choice for your neighborhood coffee shop.

Every weekend we…read moretry to hit up a new local coffee shop, and on this morning it happened to be Arabica Robusta Coffee House. This coffee shop is located in Homestead right on East 8th Avenue, and the inside is massive. The space features exposed brick throughout with plenty of seating, including a large number of tables and a sofa as well. Near the counter where you order, they had several baked goods displayed under cloches, along with a small area filled with a variety of cacti. For my coffee this morning, I went with a brown sugar latte while my wife chose a mocha. My son picked a banana, which was surprisingly free, and my daughter went with an apple danish. During the entire time we were there, we were the only people in the shop, and the two employees working were incredibly friendly. My coffee ended up tasting really good. The brown sugar added some sweetness while still allowing the coffee to shine through. It was deep and rich, and honestly had more coffee flavor than most lattes I have had in a while. My wife also enjoyed her coffee, and my twins were happy with what they ordered. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. My family enjoyed everything about this place, from the look of the space to the friendly staff, and especially the coffee.

The staff was so nice and were friendly and engaging with every person, plus they made a mean latte and coffee too! I wish they still had the fall special candied yam syrup, but their other ones are also delicious. The hash brown egg and cheese sandwhich was amazing, crispy and warm with a nice sauce too, definitely would get again. So excited to come back again!
