Donut shops are supposed to be happy places, but today I went to St. Georges for the first time and I could not believe the grumpy,unhappy folks there. Not the employees,the customers.Truly a sad experience. The donuts however were great.Worth your time and money. read more

The best I have tasted in Springfield. Daylight Doughnuts are a good second choice,but I almost always get a mild case of heartburn when I eat there. They aren't bad, I just prefer St George's,just can't go wrong in my opinion. read more

I used to stop in this shop at least twice or three times a week. I won't any longer. The last time I stopped in, I got two glazed doughnuts. Simple, right? I've always loved their glazed doughnuts. I paused at first because the doughnuts were shaped differently. But, I started eating anyway. The flavor was completely different than what it used to be. I couldn't finish them. Then it hit me where I had tasted that before. The grocery stores! So the owner of that store had gone to Dillon's or Price Cutter or someplace, bought a lot of glazed doughnuts, and put them into his case to sell! That same morning, one of the ladies I work with also stopped in for a couple. Her's as well was horrible. Her thought was that they were day old (or two days old). She couldn't finish her's either. I once commented to the owner how much I enjoyed the biscuits and gravy. His response back to me was (and I quote); "Well then I won't tell you what I put in it." I wouldn't order biscuits and gravy there again. Ever. On a side note, I asked the owner once last summer (since they also have a lawn service) if he would come mow my lawn bi-weekly. My landlord has a service that only comes every other week. He said no, because (and I quote); "Some guys don't like others to mess with lawns they mow. So he didn't even want my money for that! It's sad what's happened to this shop. They used to be so fresh and so good. Now, they sometimes go to the grocery store and put doughnuts from there into their case to sell. Pass them by, folks. They no longer deserve your business. read more

Delicious!!! My favorite is the white cream filled long johns. They actually fill them at your request which I think is cool. Great prices too! read more

So I am sure that this will get deleted because he doesn't want his customers knowing. I just thought I would let everybody know that after telling me that they could donate and they would let me know on the amount the day before benefit the owner tells me no we can't donate. sorry I didn't tell you a definite yes..I mean it's one thing to tell somebody know but it makes me think that you're going to help and you wait before the day before the benefit and tell them no low down and disgusting. This was to help a family whose son was hit by a semi walking on June 5 all we asked for was a box of donuts apparently that's worth more than customers and being kind and not lying to people. Then he had the nerve to block me so no one can see what he's done read more

I've been going to St. George's Donuts for as long as I can remember. AMAZING donuts (especially the sour cream donut!) for a great price. I would not recommend if you're looking for frills or atmosphere. However, if you're just looking for a great donut, this is the place for you!! read more

Best donuts in town hands down. There donut holes are delicious, their apple fritters absolutely amazing and their pine cones are to die for. Besides those staples they constantly have new specials like cherry turnovers or hot cross buns. I get up extra early before work just to get some St George's to kick start my day. read more

best donuts I've ever had in my whole life. I've had Donuts all over the United States none of them compared to St George's. The apple turnover was by far the best apple turnover I've ever had. read more

Their toasted coconut donuts are to die for. Their other donuts are great too so I have heard but I do not know as I always get the toasted coconut. read more

I bought donuts here for our office every Friday for at least 3 years. Lately, the selection has been pretty inconsistent. I started getting muffins and bagels as well to get more variety. Last Friday, the Vice President of my company opened a bagel to eat and it was green and moldy all over the top and middle of the bagel. I drove back to the place, as its right down the street and showed it to them. They recognized me when I walked in and I showed them the mold. Some guy behind the counter actually tried to convince me it wasn't mold, it was just 'green dust', yes, he actually said that! It was clearly mold! OK then, so even if it is 'green dust' why is there 'green dust' on my bagel!? They gave me .75 back for the bagel. 3 years of patronage, and I get hassled and get .75 I am looking around for other donut shops to patronize weekly now. The donuts here are ok, nothing too spectacular, but I'd be careful about the bagels, they are NOT made daily. read more

Corporate donut shops eat your donut hole out. Best Donuts I've ever had. Most of the time when you get there early there still hot and fresh. Coffee, milk, OJ, and newspapers also available, but if you think one donut's enough, better get 2. read more

DO NOT GO!!!! Last weekend,my family and i went to get donuts. I got a coconut donut and ate it at around 10:30AM. At 1PM, I became so ill that I couldn't walk because I got too lightheaded and dizzy. I later threw up and have still not completely gotten over the nauseating affects. Another member of my family who ate a donut also became very sick that day. I've been food poisoned once before so I know how it feels, either ingredients were bad or employees didn't use proper hygiene techniques!! STILL SICK AND DISGUSTED! read more

I've had the pleasure of stopping in here a couple of times now and I'd like to assure anyone who's thinking about it that the reviews greatly exaggerate the surliness of the ladies working here--I've never had a poor experience with them, including my first time in when I had to ask what nearly everything in the case was before buying half of it! They can be a little brisk, yes, but I find that it's easier for us all if I stand back from the counter while I make my decisions or, better yet, come in with something in mind--not hard to do when I'm as addicted to their pistachio muffins as I am! The only complaint I can think of is the early hours (there've been times I meant to get over there only to glance at the clock and realize they're closing before I'll be able to make it) and the hugeness of the donuts/pastries, though I doubt that last one's an issue for anyone but me! read more

I stopped by on Saturday morning to try out the newest donut shop around. I found out why it is named Hurts Donuts - cause it HURTS when you have to pay the ridiculous price they want for their donuts a whopping $6.34 for a bacon/carmel longjohn and a fritter (yes just 2 donuts). Crazy Crazy and the amazing part is the donuts weren't special by any means and for that price you'd expect them to be something special. Won't be going back for another robbing - I'll stick with the other options here in towns. St. George's don't worry as this Hurts place really isn't competition for the true donut eaters here in town as one trip to their shop just proved to me why your shop has been around all these years because YOU know how to make a customer happy and not rob us while doing so. Was by your shop this am to get our usual cherry and apple sticks, fritter, long john and donut holes... and as usual was happy again with the product and cost. Keep it up, but please considered opening another store back over on the side of town your original shop was located... we miss you being in our neighborhood, oh and we have to pass by the other shop mentioned earlier to get to you on National... but will drive over to your store simply because your donuts are worth the trip - we buy the donut holes just so that we have "samples" to enjoy in the car on the way home. read more

I was in Springfield for softball state finals and found this shop on Yelp then decided to try it this morning. When I arrived about 10:30 the line was out the door, but it was so worth the short wait. The staff was speedy and friendly. The glazed doughnuts-my all time favorite sweet-were the best I've ever tasted! Fabulous! I asked for a jelly filled doughnut also and when I tasted it the filling was cream, but it didn't disappoint me. Yum How I wish you'd open a St. George's near Kansas City. read more

The actual best doughnuts in Springfield. No hipster atmosphere or stale cereal, just good solid traditional cake doughnuts, fritters, glazed, and old fashioned. The orange frosted and red velvet are amazing, and the doughnut holes are my absolute favorite. I have never been disappointed in the product or the service. I just wish the national location was open on Sunday! read more

Best darn donuts in town!!! My husband and I go here at least once a week and have never had anything bad to say about this business or the owner! read more

Best doughnuts in springfield!!! Well established....consistent.....delicious doughnuts and pastries. St George's is the only thing that will make me get up early Saturday morning! Krispy cream is to sweet (I can't believe that can happen with a doughnut) and Hurts are good but if I had to Choose I'm standing by St George's! read more

My family gets to visit Springfield/Nixa Missouri once a year for vacation. We come from the Albuquerque area and always visit St. George's Donuts multiple time in 2 weeks. My favorite item is the Strusel Donut. My whole family finds these to be delectable! A nice, messy donut. Melts in your mouth. I cannot ignore another special treat: their Apple Fritters are the best I have tasted. I believe that they have much more apple in them than your average apple fritter. Every donut I have eaten from St. George's has been great. read more

Best donuts in town! So delicious and always taste fresh. Staff attitude is hit or miss depending on who is working but they are always fast. They always have good selection and price isreasonable too. read more

Hands down best donuts in town! Great old fashions, cake, or regular donuts. Bear claws are delicious...everything is very well done. If you dont get in early, you wont have quite the selection read more

new shop is great and, as always, so are the donuts BUT when I went to the new shop for the first time they told me they did not have my prior "count of 8 dozen" . . . "oh well, I guess you'll just have to start over" said the young lady . . . kind of disappointing:( read more

Best donuts I've ever had. My brother lives out of state and ask me to bring some every time we come to visit. Literally amazing. Highly recommend. read more

Donuts are my favorite thing, and I believe that St,George donuts have to be the best!!!!

Stopped in with the family while visiting the area and was not disappointed. Great Donuts as advertised! If your looking for a great donut in Springfield, MO you found it! read more

I have been going to St. George's Donuts for over 20 years. I have always been very happy with the product and the service. Today, however, was another story. The lady got my order completely wrong and I was overcharged. I simply called up and asked to speak with a manager. The manager asked me who had helped me and handed the phone off to her. Her solution was for me to come back in and they would fix the order. I told her I could not do that because I was already at work. No mention of refunding my money for the "extreme" overcharge. I must say, I was very disappointed in how the whole situation was handled. This has nothing to do with their product (delicious), but more to do with the lack of customer service or even caring that they got my order wrong and overcharged me. I will point out that, I questioned the lady about the price while I was in the store and was brushed off because they were busy. read more

I have traveled all over the place from South Carolina to New Orleans back to Oklahoma and back to my home town Springfield, Mo and I have not found a better donut. The employees are always so friendly. I do agree with a previous review we need another St. George's on the North side of Springfield. read more

They are good for cake donuts. They are not too sweet either. They are not dry and made fresh. I have ate them after I had them in the box for a day, and they were still good. They dunk well in coffee. I haven't had one I didn't like, but I haven't had one that amazed me either. My co-workers get them for the office, but I wouldn't really go out of my way for one. read more

Amazing! They are curtious and have many options. They went upbove and beyond. I called early in the morning for their amazing red velvet cake doughnuts and they set aside 6 for me. When I went to purchase them..they were wonderful!! Thanks you huys for a great experience! I will be back! read more

Got up this morning and decided to satisfy my apple fritter craving so I come here and see St. Georges is open on Sunday. YES!! Jump in the car and when I drive up what is there to greet me? In big bold letters on the door: This location not open on Sunday ACK! EDIT: About a half hour after I posted this someone changed the business hours and NOW it shows "Closed" on Sunday. read more

Man I LOVE this place. Their cinnamon rolls are just the best!!! I also enjoy their apple fritters. These are the best donuts in town. Sure, they don't offer stale cereal on top of crappy, stale donuts. They aren't a gimmick. But you can't be all things to all people. Just go! read more

I had a very bad experience with one staff member and the owner. They were both very rude. I can't believe that a business owner would behave as he did. I shall no longer support this business. read more

Wonderful people. My all time best doughnut place in town. All my coworkers prefer st. George's. Simple. Great price. Great service.

These doughnuts are the best. Cake or glazed - all are really good. My personal favorite is sour cream cinnamon/sugar with slightly crisp edges and tender centers. Wish I had one right now. read more

Absolutely the BEST in Springfield. Real doughnuts, apple fritters to die for. I would recommend them to everyone! Locally owned too!

yummy donuts, always hot, lots of drink option and the dude that owns it (although not the original founder) is a chill guy, and very nice. perfect definition of locally owned read more

My co-workers love these doughnuts. Especially the bismarks. Always a hit in the office. Check out a Springfield staple instead of the box store. You'll be glad you did. read more
