Paula's Donuts helped heal me after surgery - seriously. But first, a few words about the best…read moredonuts in the United States. I feel confident that statement is true. These are not featherweight, boring, drive thru chain donuts that never fail to disappoint. The box says they are "made with love" and while I certainly hope the bakers and makers are not oozing affection for the creations as they do their job (because that would get weird right?), the recipes and standards of ultra high quality that this unique WNY establishment has sure shows a respect and appreciation for their customers. The dough is light and never greasy tasting. The cream fillings are also fluffy and airy and melt in your mouth. Jellies are all top notch and let me be clear, the donuts are packed full with whatever is inside. Or on top. The headlights are incredible. Peanut butter offerings (several to choose from) are stellar. I'm not sure if the chocolate icing is a ganache but it seems much more like a ganache than the lousy, dried out icing you might find at places we need not mention. Staff are always courteous, polite and fast. I think each donut is going for about $2.30 but well worth it for the size and quality. A box of 3 is heavy to hold. You get a lot of donut for your buck. I've been on a Paula's kick for a couple months, stopping in when appropriate for my donut desires but trying to be mindful of my waistline. I like to sit down and really enjoy every bite. These are not ordinary donuts, they are an experience to savor. But how do Paula's donuts help one recover from surgery? It's about what you might do with them. My friend picked me up and brought me home after the hospital and slyly produced a bag of donuts for me, which I sat down and ate the minute I walked in the door. The unexpected gesture of something I've been enjoying a lot lately certainly took my mind off any discomfort. Nice friend, right? Part of recovery is having supportive friends and family and I'm glad I've got that. And I'm glad I also got a bag of donuts to make a "rough day" a lot better. So, Paula's people - I haven't tried them all yet so I guess I'm going to have to return. (Image is different donuts from a different day.)

Stumbled upon this place after driving past here! It was on Easter day, so the store was closed but…read moredecided to come back the next day. Upon walking in, the store looked like a standard "hole-in-the wall" place and had a simple selection of donuts to choose from. If you want to use a credit card, you have to spend at least $5. Donuts: I got the classic glazed donut, peanut donut, red velvet, and a cream filled donut. The glazed donut was soft and delicious. The peanut donut was more on the crumbly side but still great flavour. The red velvet had a nice cream cheese icing. The cream filled donut had a typical white cream filling. Personally, I liked the glazed donut the best - great texture and wasn't too overly sweet. The pricing here is amazing - $1.50 for great quality donuts! Easy to park on the street. There's no seating inside, so it's more of a takeout place. They also sell lottery tickets alongside donuts. It is certainly worth the visit along the way coming from Toronto.

I was unable to find a large amount of the color scheme but Famous were gracious enough to try and accommodate our needs.

The moment you walk in, it smells like what I imagine heaven smells like. The display case is gorgeous, the decor is fun, and the whole place has that classic Buffalo comfort vibe. Customer service was friendly and upbeat despite the rush. Prices were very reasonable, especially considering the size and quality of the donuts. I ordered the Bavarian cream, and it might genuinely be the best thing I've ever put in my mouth. Light, fluffy, perfectly filled -- absolute perfection. Paula's is a Buffalo staple for a reason.

I had breakfast burrito which was really good and I'd order that again. They have a whole bunch of tables for two they have a few tables for four and they did have an outside seating area that looks like it might be covered for the colder weather, but I didn't visit it. They have a all day breakfast menu and then they have some lunch sandwiches. It seems.

The staff was friendly and food was ready quick and as we took our order to go, I was happy with the choice, that was until one of the sandwiches had not only 1 but 2 hairs cooked into the eggs so was thrown out! After the other one was checked, I tried it and it was nothing special and the home fries were ice cold! I'll admit I lost my appetite upon seeing the other sandwich so it was not much of a loss not eating more. Will not return.

I would definitely come back to try their other flavors as well as other menus since they have a huge array of icecream sandwich, floats, sundaes, etc. they have a decent size parking lot with a lot of people coming and going. They have decent seating area making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy the weather. Service was fast and great but only gave us 2 samples. Overall, a great experience and met some really people.

We ordered, they served us our "flight" in a tiny foam container, and that was it. In my opinion, this was very underwhelming. The presentation was 1/5, the price was a 2/5, and we liked 3 of the 5 flavors. Maybe it would've been better if we could choose our flavors. The coffee and the London fog flavors were phenomenal enough to carry this entire review. I would consider going back for specific flavors, especially the espresso one.

The store itself is very spacious and it's always a fun experience checking out all the different aisles. They have an in-house restaurant as well which is called "Masala Memories" and although it has a limited menu but all the stuff on it is great and very well-priced. Personally, I go to Spresh every couple of weeks because I use a lot of Indian spices in my cooking but I would definitely recommend checking it out for some interesting Indian snacks that you can't find in the other grocery stores.

I have tried one of each dessert and I have nothing bad to say about any of it. It's all a home run and you can't go wrong.

The staff are very welcoming and helpful when I come in as I usually take a long time to pick what I want each visit. They offer suggestions and give samples of new /seasonal products to try. The store itself is a little small inside but they have tables outside you can eat at if you order food. If I did have one critique, it's that the hotdog buns are a little dry but I have never found a gluten free hotdog bun that I like so I can't fault them on that. I feel it's just the nature of the GF game.
