BEILERS DOUGHNUTS REVIEWS

Located in Reading Terminal Market, this doughnut shop is close to the 12th street entrance. We came early to savor the flavor and smells. Of the array of doughnuts, we chose a pink frosted sprinkle one and due to just being overwhelmed by choices, a traditional Glazed doughnut. Excellent flavor that taste like organic fresh ingredients. Here you stand in line along the cases of doughnuts to order and pay at an accessible counter. They offer no seating but there is a central area with accessible tables just around the corner in the market.

We got a bunch for takeout! it was sooo good! there was line when we got there but it went fast! totally worth it! the doughnuts were not huge just the right size.. love all the varieties.

There was a line wrapped around this place when we got there. Highly deserved. I got a 1/2 dozen donuts and they didn’t last long. We loved them. Especially the cream filled donuts! 10/10.

FEDERAL DONUTS REVIEWS

Best donuts in Philly and in my top 3 overall- my usual go-to is the hot cinnamon brown sugar donut, it’s amazing and a must try. They have revolving “fancy” flavors, this time I had tres leches which tasted so yum. We also had the fried chicken sandwich, it’s definitely crispy. It had a unique flavor similar to an onion ring which was interesting- however, it was a bit too salty and needed more sauce. The fries were good, nothing special although they were not the zatar fries. The interior is nice & modern with a colorful splash.

I walked by this place and thought that I definitely had to try it. They seem to be supportive of Pride too which is great. They do classic cake donuts, which usually aren’t my favorites, but these were so good. I had the cherry one, and that was top notch. Their latte is also very good.

Ngl probably the BEST traditional donut I have had in a very long time! The frosting and flavor is AMAZING for every donut. The staff was so kind with reccomendations and telling us they do hot chocolate with syrup instead of powder! Would stop by again for sure.

DOTTIES DONUTS REVIEWS

I have only ordered delivery but all of the donuts are always SO good. The fritters are amazing but the last ones we got, the glaze was weird like floral. Cinnamon rolls are bomb. Regular donuts good. Boston cream were not a fave but I think it’s the vegan cream so pretty decent for being vegan. I’d love to see a maple glazed one and/or blueberry donut with maple glaze.

There was truly no reason for me to eat 4 donuts in one day but it had to be done. I’ve been waiting to try Dottie’s for a hot minute and it did not disappoint. The Dunkaroos donut needs to never be taken off the menu. So nostalgic & delicious.

Amazing donuts, I went for the Dubai chocolate donut and it was the best I’ve ever had!!!!!! I like this location better than the fishtown location, it’s better to sit in and I feel the staff was kinder.
