We came here on the fourth of July and were helped by Isaiah and Talia! They were so sweet and amazing to us AND to our dog! The donuts and the coffee are great! I personally prefer their cappuccinos but their new iced mocha is very refreshing and delicious. Dont pass up on the opportunity to come to this place because you will get excellent service and you will leave happy you went and sad you had to leave. Thanks Isaiah and Talia! You guys are the best! Well be coming back!!!!!

Easy to know why they are going out of business. I placed an order over the phone, and when I got there, they said they were out of what I had requested. I just went to a chain doughnut place instead. So sad that these local places dont understand customer care here in El Paso.

Great service and yummy food! We arrived at 7:20am and had all the options to choose from. We were passing through town and didn’t want just a donut from Dunkin or Krispy Kreme; worth the few extra minutes driving into town!

The donuts are made fresh and they’re made in an old fashion manner which makes them very filling. The staff is very friendly and informative.

Not the prettiest donuts in El Paso, but definitely the best donuts around here. I’m assuming I met the owner, super awesome dude. Will be buying from them more often.

My wife and kids were satisfied, but compared to some of the other mom and pop donut shops here in el paso its a bit more expensive. They do offer some different options which I like, as well as the drive through. But just to get a dozen donuts...Id rather go elsewhere. Over all tho...the service was good as well as the donuts.

The donuts were kind of hard for it still being early morning 9am and they were all out of kolaches and milk! I went for these specific things and was let down. I let them know about the donuts and the guy did offer to replace them but the options were few. So.. I guess maybe youd have better luck getting here super early in the morning. Idk.

Place sux, never have a good variety of donuts, coffee is horrible, always out of everything and they close super early even before scheduled time, trust me this is a wannabe business not a real business. Wish Dunkin could just take this place over and we could have a place close by.

(Before I came here, I did read some of the reviews) Pulling up wasn’t the greatest. Felt like I was in a scary movie total ghost building. They had no drive through intercom. So, you had to drive straight to the window for them to take your order. As I get to the window there’s a sign on the window stating there’s no donuts. NO DONUTS! Ok? Then I thought to myself I must have been reading some old Google reviews. So, I went back of course and read the newest ones. Let’s fast forward here. I order a croissant sausage, egg, and cheese. And I was very impressed with the size. I took my first bite and I mediately had to remove the egg. I was thinking it was going to be a fresh egg. Which it was not it was those eggs you put in the freezer and take out and warm up. I guess I had high expectations for a mom-and-pop shop. My order didn’t take long at all. But I can taste why. My first and last time here. But I wish nothing but the best for this place!

Love this place. Rick, the owner, is a hoot. Loves to kid around and All of his staff is awesome. I’m going there now. Instead of going to national coffee or doughnut store, I’m going to a local guy giving great food and great coffee. How bout you join us?

Fresh tasty doughnuts and friendly service. Frosted doughnuts have flavors they aren’t just colors. Like the orange colored ones have a hint of orange flavor.

Review №35

Its a bit out of the way from my usual go to Krispy Kreme, which is now trash because of the employees. But worth the extra drive!! Not only do they have fantastic service but donuts are hands down the best for the price! The cherry to top it all, even if you are going through drive through, FREE DONUT!!!! Wish more businesses were like this, customer oriented!!!

I drove all the way from the West side to try these donuts and the service was HORRIBLE! My boys love chocolate donuts. And they wouldnt make any for them. It wasnt even 9:00 on a Saturday morning. Im not from here and have been looking for a regular donut place for my kids. But after that they will not be receiving my business.

Review №45

I would give 5 stars but I cannot due to the fact Ive gone several times just to hear were sold out. Southern has the best glazed donuts in the world. Yes,better than Krispy Kreme. Ive shown up several times sometimes at 9 00 or 10 am on a Sat morning just to be told we are out of glazed and the explanation was we make a certain amount and when we sell out that is it. For a Saturday morning that is a inexcusable business approach.I have contacted the main office in Garland,Tx.and spoke to a representative about alleviating this issue. So donut lovers in E.P. hold on and maybe we can have glazed until 12 noon.Other locations in major cities like EP have Southern Maid producing hot glazed donuts all day long.

I highly recommend this place for donuts and kolaches. Their lunch burritos are also very good and authentic Mexican food. You are greeted in the morning with a hot donut while they prepare your order. They have good coffee and hot chocolate. It was nice meeting the owner and their service is very fast. I was getting breakfast for myself and my coworkers one morning and they had me in and out very fast which I cannot say the same for the more famous chain place in town.

Review №91

Went to get a dozen, just to throw them all away, they had nasty fridge taste,all of them they had a taste and smell like they dough had been left open in the fridge, couldnt eat any, my co workers also said they have a stale freezer taste, it was bad we just threw them away and a co worker of mine went to go get Krispy Kreme donuts. Your doughnut are not fresh if they taste like fridge,also the empanadas u have on the side had a strong taste of fridge stale.

Review №92

Go to on the daily commute. Fresh baked everything. Kolaches, donuts, and my favorite croissants (the breakfast and lunch sandwiches on these are the best!). Monster club is exactly that, HUGE. Recommend getting there early, they sell out of kolaches fast, but worth the early trek

Southern Maid is my favorite doughnut shop in El Paso. Their personnel are always friendly and caring and their doughnuts are the best in town, hands down. The quality is consistent and always very tasty. Being a Law Enforcement Officer, I am naturally a connoisseur of doughnuts, and Southern Maid is my choice for Great doughnuts.
