Granny’s Old Fashioned Doughnuts

I came here off reading a review online! I get sick of the chain restaurants so I came here and it’s locally owned by the sweetest people who really took care of me! I needed two and half dozen and took them to a hospital for staff and they LOVED them! It’s so nice to support local business! It’s a great place and yummy donuts!

How can I tell you enough about this amazing donut house? Granny makes them by hand and they are huge, delicious, and uniquely decorated. Best donuts ever!

Granny must be crankin’ out some pretty magnificent doughnuts, but I guess I’ll never know unless I should find my way back to Aberdeen again for some reason. Was passin’ through town & thought I’d swing by and check this joint out, walked in the door at 10:05am & not a doughnut to be found, just empty cases with crumbs in the bottom, like a doughnut ghost town. I was late to the party I guess. I get it that they only make a limited amount of doughnuts for the day, but dang, sold out at 10:05am & I saw another reviewer encountered the same issue around the same time. There were probably 10 or 12 cars pulling in the parking lot while I was there. The funny thing is you have to turn beside a Dunkin Donuts & go about 2 blocks down a side street to get here, you can’t see it from the main Hwy. I actually drove through Dunkys parking lot to get here because I missed the street to turn on.
The only thing left in the whole place were about 3 blueberry muffins, about 6 banana nut muffins & probably 6 bran muffins, none of which I was interested in. My mom was onboard with me & she bought a blueberry muffin, said she hated to not buy anything. The muffins aren’t anything over the top, about the size of a cupcake, ma said hers seemed kinda stale, I don’t think folks come here for the muffins anyway.
There’s a great article you can see online about Granny’s Donuts that was featured in «Our State» magazine, I found it after the visit when I got home searching to see if they had a website. That article is great & the reason they get 5 stars even though I didn’t get any doughnuts. Get here early if you wanna get in on this doughnut action & check out that article.

If you’re out of donuts at 10:19am, you’re clearly not making enough. Supposedly it’s still pre-​busy season right now, so I can’t imagine even bothering to try this place in the height of spring or summer. They must be something special, but I hardly ever get up this early on a Sunday, let alone the 8am time you apparently have to keep in order to get these precious vittles.

Granny’s is my jam!!! I’ve been a patron of theirs since the 90’s. They’re friendly and the donuts are always fresh. Chocolate smiley faces are my go to! Check it out and help small businesses like this one stay alive!

A totally home town favorite… locals love it… they close when the donuts are done… Granny comes in @ 5AM & makes all the yummy goodies for the day :)

There is a reason they sell out here everyday. I had a Bavarian cream and another powdered sugar donut this morning. The cream cheese frosting filled are the best. I’ve never had a bad experience here, just make sure you get there early!

Great doughnuts! I have to go everytime that I go to Aberdeen because its a MUST! I will even leave the house extra early because once they run out, their done for the day, they are usually out of doughnuts by 12 or so. The cream cheese doughnut is pretty much the best thing ever, and the maple glazed is pretty great too, but even the original glazed doughnuts are fantastic, and they are all at GREAT prices!
Fresh doughnuts made daily, friendly/​helpful staff, and great prices. Cant beat it. :)

My company is headquartered in Southern Pines, and I dread the lengthy drive down there, taking some solace in the knowledge that it is around the bend from this delightful doughnut shop. I arrived around 8:45, and the selection still seemed fully stocked. I arranged for six, trying an apple fritter, alongside raspberry-​filled, frosted, and cake donuts. Fancy donut places back home do flavors ranging from innovative to bizarre, and are sometimes overly sweet or disappointingly dry. But here, you’ll get only the tried-​and-​true basics… and for a far better price. For freshness, taste, and value, they get high marks in my book.

Great donuts. You can really tell that they’re not serving mass produced donuts. The traditional and the cream cheese donuts are my favorite.

Don’t go to the Dunkin Donuts down the street! Keep going and Granny’s Donuts is a diamond in the rough! 80c DONUTS! They aren’t super sugary and light and fluffy. They have all the old fashioned donuts and the smiley face donut plus a LARGE Coffee is $ 2 and some change! AMAZING! I can’t get enough of these large fluffy donuts! There coffee cake is amazing and huge too! So inexpensive and delicious! Keep these good old mom and pop joints open they are the best! OH and there DONUT HOLES! Are to die for! I always go here with my change jar for a nice treat!

If you have had a doughnut from Granny’s then you already know they are the best. If you haven’t then you are probably visiting the area or new… now that you know about Granny’s you are well on your way to become a true local!
When you come to Granny’s I highly recommend trying a doughnut that you have never had before, don’t worry, it will be delicious… The maple syrup doughuts and the cream cheese ones are AMAZING!
Be sure to show up early, Granny runs out of her doughnuts almost every single day!

Best donuts! Get there early before they are all gone!

OH MY GOODNESS! Went there this morning before our round of golf. Cream cheese donut was unbelieveable. Also got a dozen glazed donut holes, and they blew Dunkin Donut «Munchkins» away. That cream cheese donut was probably the best donut I’ve ever eaten. You have got to try this place. (go early, when they are out of donuts, they close)

No grannys here, just hardworking young ladies. The donuts are good and not mass produced like in the grocery store. Can be difficult to find the store because it is off the beaten path.
