This was our first time here, and I think it will be our go-to place for donuts. We were greeted promptly and were in and out in less than 10 minutes. The shop is small, but it does have a few tables for dining in. They have a variety of donuts and coffee. I'm not a huge donut fan, but these were so good! We opted for half a dozen. They were puffy, airy, and light. So delicious!
I was so looking forward to revisiting Square Donut. We tried them when they first opened and I had fond memories. Now wondering if Im mis-remembering! I arrived around 830 on Sunday morning, and the line was short and fast moving. It looks like they have a booming advance order business, lots of pink boxes. I'm not fond of chocolate-iced donuts, but I love Bavarian cream insides, so that was one of my six purchases. I tried to scrape off the frosting, to no avail. It was a hard-ish shell like melted chocolate chips. The interior was yum, but the frosting made it too sweet for me. Next up, a lovely (bunch of) coconut. I was told it had coconut pudding inside, but again, the frosting was overwhelming, so that was essentially all I could taste. What's my theme here? Less is more, ladies and gentlemen! Next up, Maple Bacon. The maple frosting was not overwhelming, and was delicious. That said, the bacon WAS! Can that even be a thing? When is there ever too much bacon? If I was going out for a meaty breakfast, I'd go to Vidlaks. This is donuts! Cakey breakfast treats! I felt bad, but scraped off more than half the bacon bits, and then it was ok. I feel bad being such a curmudgeon. The people at the shop were wonderful -- helpful, speedy, knowledgeable. But while the donuts all are pretty, they are just over the top on toppings! With all the sugary bites, I needed coffee to cut the sweetness ... and while the coffee tasted ok, it was lukewarm -- and I'd only just walked to my car! In short, I like cakey things where the cake shines, and hot drinks hot. And that wasn't my experience today. It was, though, less expensive than I anticipated ... for which I'm thankful. Two whole donuts (fruit filled and vanilla iced) remaining along with three halves. I may try leftovers with my own steaming, strong coffee tomorrow, but I'm not sure the sugar has dissipated enough to sleep tonight. We'll see!
Got square donuts this morning for the first time. They are about 9 miles from my house so that's why I had yet to go. Was up very early so thought why not make the drive. Got there right when they opened. They had all the donuts they make available. The donuts have a good chew to them. The chocolate frosted with sprinkles was delicious, the chocolate Bavarian cream was also good. Probably can't really go wrong here. My oldest son LOVED them as he ate 5 of them. A tab on the $$$ side but most boutique donut shops are these days.
I am now a believer in square donuts! When I stopped in, it was a special day in the community (End of Summer/Back to School), so the stock was *way* low. There were just a few varieties left, plus several flavors of the gluten-free cake donuts. The digs are super cute! Love the pink everywhere. The gluten-free plain vanilla iced donut was perfection: light and fluffy, sweet and soft, with a little fresh citrusy brightness to the icing. You can't even tell it's gluten-free. Amazing. The maple bacon donut was pretty good. The balance of the flavors was on point, and the donut was still light and fluffy beneath all the rich toppings. Kind of a quibbling point on if you like your bacon done a particular way, but it was still pretty good. The star for me, though, was the PB&J donut. The delightfully crunchy peanut butter took the spotlight only for a moment, because there was such a good covering of jelly through every bite that childhood memories came flooding back with glee. I was surprised how light and fluffy the donuts remained beneath the specialty toppings, especially the maple and bacon. But the square donuts held their own!! I'll definitely be back. Thanks, y'all!
I had never tried Square Donut before and had a chance to go check them out via Yelp's Treat-o-Clock series (that's the great part about the Yelp Elite Squad, getting to try new places!) After that first visit courtesy of Yelp, I had to go back and get some more flavors of donuts, because they were such high quality (and giant!) It's always super busy in there, and they will run out of certain things by mid-morning, so definitely go early in the morning if you want the most selection of options. The staff is super sweet, and works well under the pressure of the busy atmosphere. The interior and branding inside is SO cute and very pink - my favorite color. It just puts you in a fun, bright mood so early in the morning. The donuts I have ordered (all delicious) are: -Square Jane: I think this is their play on a "Long John" - It was stuffed with a whipped cream filling and had a topping of chocolate icing with cute pink swirls. -Chocolate Peanut Butter: Also cool swirls on this one! It was a chocolate topped donut (the same tasty chocolate as the Square Jane) but with peanut butter on top and stuffed with a peanut butter flavored whipped filling. If you're a fan of peanut butter and chocolate together like Reese's - this is definitely one for you to try. -Maple Top Raised: I'm a huge fan of maple donuts, and this one was great! The maple glaze on top was very flavorful and sweet, and the donut itself (like all their donuts), was fluffy and light and easy to eat. -PB&J: This was another of the fancy style flavors I picked. The donut is covered in "chunky" peanut butter glaze (little bits of peanuts on top) and is filled with a grape jelly middle. It is literally like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich you make at home, but with a little extra sweetness since you're having it as a donut! -Strawberry Top Raised: In addition to maple, strawberry is one of my favorite flavors too, so I had to get this one! Perfectly pink strawberry frosting covering a light, fluffy donut. You can't go wrong with this one. -Chocolate Top Raised: This is an age old classic - just a super fluffy donut, covered in their scrumptious chocolate glaze. They also have a full array of coffee, from standard drip style to full on lattes that they can make. The last time I went, it was pumpkin spice season so I tried one of their Pumpkin Spice Lattes. It was a cut above the Starbucks PSL, it was that good! So if you see a flavor you like on the specialty lattes menu, grab it before it's gone. If you're a fan of amazing quality donuts, tasty coffee drinks, super cute cafe style spots, and wonderful staff - definitely give Square Donut a try. Just go early!
Narrowly escaped with a half dozen donuts at 12:30, but the last one for March's DOTM slipped through our fingers! Super CUUUTE merch, and I had no idea they sold Hardy Coffee Co there! #IYKYK Can we ALL just take a moment, and APPRECIATE how evenly filled the Bavarian cream is in the chocolate frosted one? It's not to one corner, or is it just a literal pea sized specimen. It's got a DECENT amount, in the middle - and let me tell you, that matters. Details folks, details. That maple?! Perfectly sweetened; not too sickly and oh so just right. Kinda disappointed the hubs got the first bite on that one... but I've got my eye on that simple yet sophisticated, chocolate glazed with sprinkles! I'll be honest, my first experience with Square Donut was for my nieces 3rd; ya know, the GIANT square donut, with strawberry frosting. The dough then was airy, moist, and what I "prefer" when I smash a donut. This batch?! SAME! Consistency is key and they do not disappoint on their dough. We knew pickings would be slim on a Saturday, so late into their working hours, but when in Rome as I always say REALLY looking forward to what April's DOTM will be!!
Quick and friendly service and really good donuts! The choices were diminished due to arriving a little late in the morning, but they were really delicious.
This place not only has exceptional donuts but amazing customer service! The girl behind the counter complimented my hair the second I walked in, and several other employees there were so pleasant and friendly during my 2 visits. To my surprise, the simplest donut I got (strawberry) was my favorite. Such a great taste on the dough alone and I am NOT a bread person so I normally don't enjoy donuts like this! Highly recommend, I will be back for sure!
Square Donut we just love you!!! zach's go-tos (so good that he hardly ever strays from them): classic glazed raised & the apple fritter donut. the perfect mix! my choice today: coconut cream and WOW!!! first time having this & I loved it. not too much cream in the middle which I personally like. plenty of coconut flakes on top. petition for one with chocolate frosting (I may have just missed it)??? if you haven't been here, it's definitely a must try in omaha. they have the most fluffy raised donut with fun flavors too read more

Best donut place in west omaha hands down. They always have amazing seasonal flavors as well as OG flavors. Eating those donuts while pregnant is an even better experience. It always hits the spot! Service is super friendly and seems happy to work there. read more

Had such a great time. Went on a Sunday morning with my son had a great time. He got a vanilla sprinkle I had a strawberry lemonade (donut if the month) and got a strawberry sprinkle for my daughter. I had a hazelnut latte with oat milk. It was delicious. I normally get skim milk but they don't carry skim. They did just add lattes to their menu so they might increase their milk options in the future. The service was good and the place was so cute. Said outside and enjoyed a beautiful morning. read more

I've been here a couple times and I would only go out of my way to drive 15 minutes here for their specialty donuts. Their regular line up of donuts are taste just as good as other donut shops in town except they're square-shaped. I tried their crème Brûlée specialty donut and ice cream donut and those were so fun to try. They change their specialty flavor every month. read more
Donuts taste great and their staff is so friendly! I only wish I would have came earlier because some of the square donuts I would have liked to try were gone! A good problem for them! Came out here with Yelp and would come again. I got a simple glazed donut but man was it delicious! read more
I'll preface this review on saying that I'm not typically a donut fan. I have no problems passing by a box of Krispy Kreme's, Dunkin's or Casey's donuts without even a second glance or thought. But Square Donuts is the exception. These square little sweet delights are wonderful! The plain glazed aren't too sugary and the dough it light and airy as a cloud. Literally couldn't ask for a more perfect breakfast, unless you're talking about their caramel apple fritter! *cue Janice's voice* OH MAH GAWD! The caramel apple fritter is KILLER! It's still square and sweet, light and delicious. But man, you put caramel over that baby with the apple bites inside and it is off the charts INCREDIBLE! If you stop by there, those are must try! I promise you won't be disappointed. But that could really be true of any of their donuts. The only one I haven't tried is one of their bestsellers - the maple bacon. I'm not a maple fan, but so many have told me how amazing those ones are as well. I don't think they make anything that is even mediocre. Plus they offer gluten-free options too! The best part? The owner Elizabeth is a complete doll and her team is kind and helpful. They're accommodating for special orders and do a great job at personalizations too! Get there early or place an order for pick up ahead of time. These sell out early if that tells you anything about how yummy these donuts are. 12/10 read more

So I might be slightly biased since I'm friends of the owners son who helps out a lot at the shop. But let me be clear, the first few times i had donuts from square, it was at the Depreciating Assets car shows last season, and at that point I did not know they were from square. As far as I knew they were just community donuts for anyone that wanted one. Well I gotta say, their donuts are easily the best I've ever had, second to none really. The 2 Allstars of their lineup that ive tried so far are the maple bacon donut, and their peanut butter and jelly donut. The latter being the best donut I have ever eaten. The Pooley family knows what theyre doing with donuts, and also knows a thing or two about customer service. When you walk in you feel like family, and that combined with the quality of their craft makes it well worth the drive out to west o, even just for donuts. read more

Crème brûlée has been popping up on my FYP's across all medias lately. The latest to pop up was a recommendation for Square Donuts flavor of the month. So of course I had to grab some for me and my kiddos. Never been to Square Donut before today and was impressed at how beautiful their donuts are. The location is bright and inviting. I definitely see myself coming back to try other donuts. They offer gluten-free that have milk and eggs. And they offer vegan that has gluten, but no milk and eggs which I thought was interesting. The staff were very friendly and informative as there were a couple customers ahead of me. They took their time and helped to the fullest even as more people were coming in. Now to the highlight of the visit. The crème brûlée donut was delicious. Crispy Brûlée over the donut, but not too much to make it sticky to hold. And just the perfect amount of crème to donut ratio. Perfectly picked berries to accent. Reasonable prices with todays ingredient costs. $13.50 for the four donuts; Worth it! read more

The doughnuts at Square were good but they didn't blow my socks off. The raised doughnut I had was fluffy and the icing was tasty, but there was nothing special about it. The doughnut itself isn't very sweet, but the icing is plenty sweet so overall it tastes fine. Others have said they thought these doughnuts are less sweet than others, if you compare it to Krispy Kreme then I think that's true. I also tried a sour cream cake doughnut and it was a bit dry inside, almost crumbly. It had a slight spice to it (I suspect nutmeg). They were out of their gluten-free donuts, but they had some vegan ones. The shop was cute, and there are a couple of tables inside where you can eat your doughnuts. At least half of the doughnuts were sold out by the time I got there at 9:20 on a weekday. Like most doughnut shops, if you want more selection you have to get there early. read more
