    Such a great little coffee shop on the Main Street in Lawrenceville! It used to be an old bank, but was converted to a multi-use market space-with Oliver's at the forefront. (They also have a walk thru option, too!) Coffee is delish and everyone there is just so sweet and friendly. They have quite a few seats available, which usually never fill up from what I can see. They also have a variety of beautiful doughnuts (with fun flavors like lemon, lavender etc). You can tell they're homemade too, they are AMAZING. Make this a rotation for your morning coffee routine!

    Delicious cake donuts and wonderful staff! I love going to Oliver's Donuts because the space is bright, clean and calming and you could easily bring a book or your laptop to work. I've tried a variety of their donuts and they're all delicious. Today I tried the pumpkin and chocolate mint. The pumpkin donut had a beautiful glittery and glazed finished and wasn't overwhelming with the pumpkin flavor. It was balanced and not overly sweet. Again, these are cake donuts so they are thicker. Located in the Lawrenceville Market House, we are lucky to have quality donuts so close by!

    Delicious donuts! One of my favorite donuts in Pittsburgh. Oliver's donuts is located in Market house. There is not a ton of seating but I had no problem finding both a seat and an outlet on a Friday afternoon. Since it's in Market House there are a few shops you can browse too! Perfect place to study or get some work done. There were a variety of donuts to choose from including seasonal flavors. I tried the lemon lavender which is a summer seasonal flavor and it was delicious! The coffee was also very good. The coffee cup was very cute and featured Oliver the cat on it as well. Staff were very friendly and helpful! Since it was my first time there I struggled to choose which flavor donut to get. Staff helped me pick by telling me which flavors were popular and also gave a disclaimer when recommending super sweet donuts. Overall a great experience!!

    Came for a coffee left with a donut too. This new shop is in Lawrenceville metered parking on the street with that typed. Oliver's has a cute sign A take out window A bit of indoor seating Friendly service They have milk options almond and oat And their donuts My coffee was fine And when I was asked if I wanted a huckleberry donut on the house I was YES please Donut was a delish cake like donut with berries frosting was so good not too sweet. Prices per the sign a donut is about 3.19 Be the judge I would buy

    On a scale of romances to documentaries, Oliver's Donuts is the romance you expect. I missed the grand opening of Oliver's Donuts a year ago. Ever since then, I've been hoping to get there. This past weekend, I did. Oliver's Donuts is charming in decor with a lovely seating area. I love that they offer coffee-shop-level coffee alongside their cake donuts. The chocolate chocolate cake donut was decadent. Parking is street, and there is a lot (though I didn't check to see if it includes Oliver's Donuts. I assume so). You can also order donuts at a window, but I suggest going inside, ordering your goods, and then meandering the other shops!

    Donuts are always great. Try to get them early in the day since they will run out of certain flavors. Great location and you can check out the other stores in the market house. Price is pretty spot on for the quality of donuts

    I wanted to be wowed, but it was just ok. First, I was there at 2pm and there was a bit of a line in front of me, but no one behind me. They were out of a few flavors (completely acceptable that late in the day) but staff wasn't very helpful in explaining things to me. It was also confusing because they had given all the donuts Taylor Swift names, but then didn't use those names when I tried to order. Dang these were expensive donuts. I ordered 2 - sea salt chocolate and pumpkin. I thought the pumpkin was most and flavorful. The chocolate was super dry and just crumbled everywhere. These kind of donuts aren't usually my style, so maybe I'm in the minority. Anyway, I'd have a pumpkin one again if offered, but I don't think I'll rush back either.

    I met some colleagues for coffee here, and of course we had to try the donuts too. I had the Juniper and pear donut, perfect flavor! I also had a cappuccino. My colleagues had the vegan gingerbread donut and the huckleberry donut (the house specialty), both delicious. The staff was extremely friendly. The atmosphere was adorable. There are some cute local shops right in their space. They didn't open until a little later, but I'll definitely stop back when I can enjoy some donuts and shopping

    Espresso Tonic with Lavender

    So stinking cute with great options. I had the espresso tonic with hints of lavender which was refreshing and floral, perfect for a hot day. We tried the huckleberry and lavender lemon donuts as well. The donuts were delicious, just a little too sweet for me! (I preferred the huckleberry). The space is newer and very modern, and it's nice that the little local shops are in there as well.

    We passed by this place ad were instantly like "donuuuuuttts" because who doesn't love a good local donut shop. Then to our surprise they were having a free donut day the very next day! Perfect timing. I read some reviews first and it really seems to be a mixed bag of love it or "meh". I saw they were cake donuts, which are definitely a specific type and if you don't like cake donuts you probably aren't going to LOVE these. Here is my honest opinion as a cake donut lover. The location is adorable, located in Lawrenceville market. I had never been in there before, so it got me in the door to see some other cool spots. Decor is really clean and welcoming. Staff was friendly. The donuts were picture perfect. They were good, not the best thing ever. Like we went literally as soon as they opened so we probably got the freshest of the fresh. The icing on the carrot cake was really good, the cake part had a spice that kind of overpowered it. The death by chocolate was actually my favorite, it was still warm, had to be super fresh. The other 2 (cinnamon sugar and chocolate sea salt) were for my boyfriend and he gave me a 3.5 out of 5 rating on them for taste. I read reviews saying the donuts were dry or crumbly and I could see how if I got them later in the day how that might be true. All in all. I like them, not loved. If it was as soon as they opened in the morning and I was craving chocolate, I would go back for the death by chocolate for sure.

    Located in Market House in Lawrenceville! Homemade delicious donuts made from scratch with local grains. Specializing in the large cake donuts and offering great coffee and tea choices as well!

I can't say I've had many donuts from donut shops across my life, but these were the best I've had yet. I got lucky on a Friday morning before Fourth of July and had some luck that they weren't completely sold out. I went in and only wanted a glazed doughnut to see if they were as good as everyone says, but I left with a good variety of donuts, all of which were incredible. Each staff member was incredibly helpful, and helped me pick based on stuff that I like. They could definitely charge a lot more. This place is super cheap.

Showing up this early only for people ahead of you walk out with 3-5 boxes at a time. The hurdles aren't worth it. Now, if someone else brought them to an event and had them available - I would not scoff don't get me wrong, I'd have one (maybe two). I just can't get on board with this place philosophically. The mystique and purposeful scarcity of both selection and what leads to closing quite early is at this point trivial. But it appears the scarcity is the appeal. This is (currently) the NFTs of donuts. We got an assorted dozen and my wife and I were both of the mind "these are all average." Though we were aligned and agreed their Old Fashioned donut is the standout. That one is extremely cravable. Frankly, our experience left so much to be desired that we're content not to go back. I'd recommend not wasting your time either.

Starting in 2008, PLLD has taken Pittsburgh by storm with franchises popping up all over the area but the true start is right here in the Strip District... well two doors down, but who would fault them for moving into the corner spot when it became available. As humble of beginnings, the owner bought a donut machine from a friend's garage that didn't seem to work quite right. Finally working, all that could seem to be produced were this little donuts. Fast forward six months to the owner realizing he installed one component backwards... but the craze of little donuts had already been born! The shop is funkadelic! With the constant parade of fresh mini donuts being fried and topped right in front of you - you can be assured that yours will be hot and fresh. The toppings are always changing and they have display donuts right in front of you so you can eye up which you want to devour! Plus with mini donuts, you can grab quite a variety and tell yourself that 4 or 5 of these would equal the calories of a normal donut... right?! The employees greet you with a fresh cinnamon sugar donut to sample - a tradition that started last June on National Donut Day and they just never seemed to stop! For our Strip District Food Tour, we each got a little donut. We chose the Elvis, Dirt, Chocolate Chip Pancake, and Tres Leches. What a glorious little bite! Perfect combos of sweet and salty - that are almost as pretty to look at as they are to devour!

So many different flavors to choose from, they are tiny donuts though, individually hand dipped as you order and the batter is similar to a 'cake batter' which is denser and lightly crumblier than a typical donut.

The menu lists several flavors of donuts of "raised"/stick donuts and "round" donuts. Raised donuts include the following flavors: Cream Sticks (marshmallow filling with chocolate topping), Jelly Sticks (raspberry-jelly filling with sugar coating), Cinnamon Sticks (cinnamon glaze), and Glazed. Round donuts include the following flavors: Glazed, Powdered Sugar, Chocolate, Peanut (with marshmallow cream), Cinnamon Sugar, Plain Old-fashioned, and Sprinkle (with marshmallow cream). I chose the Raspberry Jelly Stick, and my husband chose the Chocolate Cream Stick. The employee provided excellent service in greeting us, patiently waiting for us to decide our flavors, and processing our payment. I do recommend that the business add labels near the donuts, but the employee did explain the flavors to us. Each donut cost $1.90. Both of our donuts tasted very good.
