Donut Shack: Reviews & Ratings
Food and service are great! I love how it looks like an older diner too. Highly recommend!
This place is very small and family run it's usually two people working , but I will say this place has the best and I mean the best breakfast did you get ever order? Give this a four-star actually I'll give it a five star and the only reason why I didn't make a five-star is because they don't have my donuts anymore. Lol lol
Great little diner spot, but be prepared to wait a while for food. Dined here two mornings in a row with over an hour wait for two people.
No donuts, but excellent diner fair. This is breakfast in a neighborhood joint, with 'the guys' coming in for coffee. The food was good, and quick. I'll go back.
Great breakfast diner. Excellent food as and service. Support small and local business. Highly recommended. Will visit again soon.
A decent spot in Penn Hills. Ended up here because other places nearby were too busy. Plenty of parking. The restaurant space could be a little cleaner. Staff was friendly and service was pretty quick. The food was excellent, I had the blueberry pancakes. Prices are very reasonable. Would recommend checking it out.
Hard working ladies, food was reasonably priced and delicious. They strive to make the the place covid safe. Highly recommend..
