First time trying this donut spot I'm usually a Krispy Kreme fan, but since moving from Florida there isn't one nearby and honestly, I'm not missing it anymore. With full foodie confidence: these donuts are AMAZING. We tried donut holes (which were free I might add), a sprinkle donut, plain iced, chocolate iced, and my toddler had a cinnamon roll donut. Every single one was so good. My husband and I both agreed these are the best donuts we've had around here so far. We'll definitely be regulars! Also, shoutout to the great service thank you! read more

Nothing special about this place. Awful parking situation. It is small and the selection is modest at best. Donuts are run of the mill that pretty much every donut shop makes. Staff was friendly but just not worth the effort to get to it. read more

I love their iced donuts. They are the best I've ever had. Very sweet though. The staff is always friendly there as well! Service is quick.

The donuts always are good. The people there are nice too. The vibes kinda gives like an old place but it's a nice old place. I've been going here for almost 15 years. read more

Been to all the donuts shops in Benton but never to Dales,and I never will. Stopped at my bank,walked over to Dales for donuts. They were closed with 2 signs up saying closed out of donuts this was at 9:20 in the morning How can a donut shop be closed at 9:20am All the other shops were open with customers lined up. I'm sure that they appreciated Dale sending them his customers. I won't be back. 0 star. read more

I rarely eat donuts because I am not supposed to, but I was craving donut holes. If you like cake donuts they were thick. I was expecting them to be more airy. The service was great, but it wasn't to my taste, but I'm sure a lot of people would really like it read more

Fantastic donuts! First time in but won't be last. Love the consistency and being served warm.

Dales donuts is my absolute favorite donut spot in central Arkansas! It's also my favorite place to get donuts for my customers. The ladies on the weekdays are super helpful and have wonderful service. My go to place for donut holes for myself. Go early or they will be sold out! read more

This is a small little donut shop that delivers in a big way. The glazed donuts would almost melt in your mouth. I am a big fan of cake donuts and they definitely had some good ones. This shop has a huge following too- expect some lines and limited inventory at peak times. The lines are worth it when you bite into one of their donuts. read more

Just happened to be grocery shopping in Benton and noticed all the cars at Dale's Donut Shop and thought, why not. We stopped, so glad we did. Those donuts hit the spot, we'll be back again, and again. we ate them so fast we didn't have time for any photos. read more

Donuts were fresh and tasty. I highly recommend dales for donuts. The glazed were fantastic

Dale's gets a 5-star from me based on their donuts alone. They are the best donuts I have ever had. The glazed donuts and donut holes are perfect and their other donuts are pretty good. The only problem is the location of the shop is difficult to navigate and finding a good spot is difficult when it's busy. However, it is definitely worth the struggle getting in for their donuts! read more

You can keep your Krispy Keene and your Dunkin donuts I'm gonna stick with Dales. They are about the best around... read more

I have been coming to this donut shop for over 20 years. The donuts are literally the best in Benton, maybe arkansas. They are light and airy, coated with flaky sugar. Not the prettiest things but delicious. They treat children to free donut holes. My only qualm is that this place has had literally no renovations or changes since we've been coming here. It has horrible parking , on a corner without street parking, and looks like a bait shop instead of a donut shop. But, it's Benton- things will never change. read more

Dale's Donut Shop - Factory like exterior - Donuts Near Me - Benton, Arkansas

These donuts are delicious! The donut holes, glazed yeast, and maple iced were our favorites! We stopped in on a long road trip home and the ladies here were so friendly and kind to my husband and I and our children. We'd go back in a heartbeat if we ever pass through again. read more

The best donut shop in central Arkansas, hands down. People travel 30, 40 minutes to get these. A true staple of Benton, and nice people too. Once you try one, you will be back. The best is the traditional glazed. read more

Great place but they have new hours now! 5:30-10:00 on Sunday's. Wish they'd stay open later than 10:00am.

Best doughnuts around! The staff is very pleasant and welcoming and always on top of everything! This is a must go to if you are in the area or just passing through! read more

"Been to lots of donut shops this is the best!" Better than the donuts in Dallas TX! Blairsville GA read more

Dale's Donuts, may I give you 100 stars? It's quite possible I may be your biggest fan, reasons being: 1) I have been visiting this place for over 20 years. I loved it so much as a kiddo that I made my Dad start telling me "donut stories" at night before bedtime. These stories starred your donuts as superheros and yummy protagonists, ready to save the day (and of course) be eaten at the end. 2) I'm considering getting an image of your strawberry iced donut tattooed on my ankle. No joke. 3) If I ever get married, I'm going to ask you guys to make a donut cake for me. Would that be possible? Although I live in Texas now, everytime I visit my family in Arkansas, I come grab my favorite breakfast of champions of all time: 1 pink donut, 1 old-fashioned chocolate iced donut, and half a dozen donut holes. I've never had a better donut. Keep doing what you're doing, Dale's, and remember, I love you. read more

Best donuts around. By far. Friendly staff and kids get free donut holes. Worth the wait in line as well as the drive from little rock

Best around, when I take my Grandkids they always say they are having the best day ever...love the strawberry covered glazed, cinnamon rolls, Apple fritters, as well as donut holes. Owners and staff super nice. read more

A locally owned donut shop that offers the best donuts I've ever tasted! If you are traveling through Benton, you will not regret stopping here for your morning coffee and donuts. Small seating area but most locals grab theirs and go. Worth the visit!! read more

when we come home to visit from CO., they are the first breakfast we have! we go the first morning everytime! kids love them!

Definitely good donuts... better than average but not the yeasty, doughy delights I was expecting. We picked an assortment of 6 and the bill was $11+!! Had the donuts been superb, that would still be a lot of money. Donuts at Dale's are good tasting, but definitely not a good value. The best deal there is the glazed donut. They taste the best to me and the cost, though high, is less than the other styles. read more

Best service and donuts! I feel like I'm in my own home ...that's how Dale's makes you feel when you walk in the door. My grandson LOVES them too!! If you haven't tried the donuts, you're in for an awesome surprise! read more

Best donuts. Not an opinion. Fact. Crispy and soft at the same time, perfection every time. I don't minding begging them to expand and have a shop in Austin (Texas) so I don't have to travel hundreds of miles to get good donuts. Even though I primarily eat Paleo-based food, I'll make an exception for Dale's donuts. read more

I love this place!!! The blueberry cake doughnuts are especially wonderful. The staff is the best...it's just an excellent place to get your morning sugar fix! Love that this local business is thriving because they are good at what they do & the community loves them still! read more

Worst donuts around by far. You can get a better donut at Walmart at midnight. Donuts were not good and cold. We waited in line for at least 10 minutes. Horrible donut experience. Go to sunshine donuts if you want a good donut. read more

My favorite donut shop in Saline County! I buy from them once a week for the fam and we love eating their donuts. The weekend staff is friendly and even though it's usually packed I don't spend more than 5-10'min there. read more
