Nice little place near Bishop Arts. They have fantastic options from kolaches, eclairs, pink donuts with star sprinkles, Apple fritters and regular donuts. They also sell fancy coffee! They have a nice espresso machine on the back counter in case you are in the mood for a latte with your donut holes. The prices are good for donuts, though coffee was a bit pricey considering it is a donut shop. The back wall is covered in photos from Dallas. There was a photo of JFK, the Beatles and more. It was neat to sit and look at them. Its quiet so if you are looking for a place to chill and relax, this is it. There is outside seating and covered outside seating as well as indoor seating.

My wife wanted breakfast tacos this morning. This was the worst experience at a neighborhood donut shop every. Wasn’t greeted with any kind of nice welcoming. Woman behind the counter was very rude and abrupt with us like we offended her by just being customers. I asked for a kolche and she just straight up ignored me. Everything we ordered she acted like it was such a hassle and problem for her to get. Then we get home and open up our tacos to the most dismal display of a breakfast taco I’ve ever seen. Hardly any filling at all, way more tortilla than filling. We were not thanked for our business or anything on the way out. Terrible experience. Terrible service. Terrible food. Will not be going back!!!

HORRIBLE WE USUALLY GO ON ILLINOIS..BUT DECIDED TO TRY THIS LOCATION. NOTHING I MEAN ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WAS FRESH AT 8:15. DOUGH WAS DRY. MY APPLE FRITTER WAS HARD AS A ROCK AND INEDIBLE. IM NOT SURE IF ITS BURNT BUT ITS HARD AND DRY. SO DISSAPOINTED. ILLINOIS LOCATION IS THE BEST AND THE GENTLEMAN THERE MAKES SURE HIS FOOD IS FRESH.

Fell in love with Southern Maid during the many trips to see family in Shreveport. So, I was so excited to see that they opened a bunch of them in Dallas. My mom and I headed over to the Bishop Arts location and checked them out. We got three of their traditional glaze and a twist. Even though they were not pipping hot they still had that creamy and not too sweet Southern Maid taste--that makes you want to eat the entire bag and your friends too! I will be back when I need another donut fix!

I ordered the club sandwich and fries around lunch time yesterday, and then 5/6 hours later I started to feel sick. I have been in pain and throwing up since last night until now. My sister ordered a grilled cheese and said that it tasted stale. I’m positive that I got food poisoning from this place. (Considering that was the only thing that I ate yesterday.)

Great local spot for breakfast tacos at the right price, tasty donuts, and decent coffee. Its not quite as boutique as the rest of Bishop Arts, but the quality is good and the price is great!

Review №28

My experience wasnt super positive. The kolaches are not all that great. Originally I just assumed I caught them on a bad day but the bread tasted stale both times I have gone by.The donuts are pretty standard fare. We enjoyed those.The customer service was lacking. I asked for a couple more minutes to look (as I had a family blocking my view of what was available) and was given a pretty dirty look by multiple employees. Not sure what that was about. Once I finally got a view of what was available the girl who helped me did not seem to listen to my order. She just started shoving donuts in a box. May have been a communication issue? Might give this place one more chance to see if it was a fluke.

Its an ok place to get a cheap breakfast. Employees are too busy to say good morning. Something small like that can go a long way.

Best fresh donuts and breakfast croissants Ive come across. Theyve got donuts to suit anybody. Glazed, sprinkled, or covered in chocolate. My go to place for a quick breakfast snack. Do yourself a favor, and try them!

The guy that took my order at the window was extremely rude. Everything I ordered was awful, the donut holes were old and cold. Ham, egg, and cheese croissant was bad I had to spit it out. Even though this location might be close to me, I much rather to go the distance for better donuts and service.

Delicious! As well as breakfast tacos, delicious, the salsa with it delicious. Its rare to find a green salsa thats delicious. I dont like spicy but the pica to this sauce is perfect.

Southern Maid franchise is known for having fresh donuts. So why buy a franchise if you dont plan on doing what they are known for which is fresh hot donuts that are maid to order. Then she says we are a franchise but we dont do what like them.

Not what I expected from looking at the outside. Looks really are deceiving. Dounuts weren’t fresh and the pigs in a blanket were definitely not from today. I went in the morning so I would expect the food to be fresh. Prices were normal for a donut shop. I got a frappe and it wasn’t what I expected at. Tasted like a cold black coffee. Oh well

This place has very bad customer service. I went today there was nobody there customer wise so our service should have been good. It was horrible.. what I ordered was not what I asked for. When I asked the guy to fix it he had an attitude with me and act like he didnt want to. When I was giving him the order initially he had an attitude with me like hurry up. Their donuts are greasy. Employees should be trained on how to take a customers order without having an attitude. I guess the employees are this way because there has been a time when the owner has had bad customer service as well so I guess it starts at the top and just trickle down to the bottom of the barrell. I have great experiences with the Southern Maid in Wynnewood and the one near the Trinity. The one on Davis is trash. Will never go there again.

Review №57

I ordered ham and egg breakfast tacos and they smelled like fish. I had to spit it out. How can you have a Mexican or Hispanic run breakfast spot and not make decent breakfast tacos? Also, the donuts are meh.What they do well with is their full sized breakfast plates. E.g. ham, egg, hashbrowns, pancake, etc. Its pretty cheap too so Im giving them an extra star for that.But seriously, as the only donut shop in Bishop Arts you could be killing it but your food and service sucks. Hire a manager.

Review №58

Sometimes the donuts are good & sometimes they taste like they were made in an Easy Bake Oven..The only thing consistant about this place is the fact that the service Always Sucks now in some shape, form, or fashion; i.e (rude, slow, orders wrong, etc)

Review №60

This is a great place to get a classic donut. No frills, just great donuts. The apple fritter is huge and rich. I get the sense that this is a family owned store. My only gripe with this place is that the donuts run out quickly and the coffee is not very good at all. In this day and age bad coffee is just too easy to avoid. Again the donuts make up for most of this.

The lady in the front was rude she basically rushed me to order gave me my ham & cheese croissant cold she didnt heat it up also i ordered my son pig in a blankets and she heated them so long they were hard... We did not receive a greeting nor did she thank us so i will not be returning back to this location.. I have never experienced anything like this

Review №68

Donuts are good and they have a great a selection of items both donuts and drinks. However, the service here is horrible. Someone needs to really go in and show these folks how to work with their source of income, which is their customer. We have been quite often and always get the same sad face as if being there is an issue. No enthusiasm and just want you out of there as soon as you walk in. After everything you ask for they say thats all. There is a young girl that works there and is the only one that has not been corrupted by a crappy attitude, unfortunately she is not there all the time. Today we found out the main lady that is the source of negativity is the owner, which is pretty mind blowing. Good luck to future customers!

I dont know if the owners are the same, but the donuts arent what they used to be. I use to could get these hot & fresh. Now theyre cold, straight from a frig & hard.I specifically ask for HOT donuts. The Hispanic lady in the window just say ok & hands you icebox donuts. Its been thia way the last 3 times Ive went. I thought maybe they were having a couple of bad days, but no. 3 strikes youre out. Now I have to drive way to Krispy Kreme away from my neighborhood, just to get fresh donuts.

Waited close to an hour in the drive thru only to get the wrong order. When I went inside to have the order corrected I was argued with, the old lady said I gave her that order. I finally just asked for a refund, which they gave reluctantly. Please save your time and money or go to another establishment. These people are horrible.
