I'm not crying-YOU'RE crying!!! Because you're not eating these amazing delicious, dreamy, AUTHENTICO, yeast, fried, hot, delicious donuts. There is nothing more life changing than a proper donut. Southern Maid is donuts made right. I suggest getting the glazed because they're hot all day (okay so till about 3 or 4) The chocolate sprinkle donuts are amazing in their own right. The donuts are under a buck each making them cheaper than Dunkin'. You convinced yet? read more

The time we went the donuts were hot and fresh. The area is sketchy so I recommend going early in the day. The lady who served us was very matter of fact so expect no frills or super friendly service. Get your donuts and go. Donuts are good when hot and fresh any other time forget about it. read more

Every time I'm in Shreveport, this place is a must-stop! It's a local favorite, and I can see why. I've been here twice so far, and when the donuts are fresh, they're some of the best I've ever had. Highly recommend checking it out! read more

Southern Maid are my favorite donuts of all time. Recommend them hot. I like glazed, chocolate and fruit/crème filled the most. Almost as good as the one by the Fairgrounds. Donuts and Kolaches only (no to-order breakfast items). read more

Southern Maid Donuts - Fresh glazed and chocolate top is vanilla coconut and chocolate coconut. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Bossier City, Louisiana

Terrible. When do they stop having coffee at 9:30 in the morning. Workers were rude I understand the cold donuts but no coffee

They're glazed is so sweet. They have a cute Lil shoppe. I got a dozen donuts, all different kinds and some donut holes. The ppl are so sweet, guess that's the theme of the south read more

When to SMD at 10:30 got a dozen to go. The place was wide open with all chairs stacked and taped off with a sign saying "lobby closed". Fast courteous service. I didn't notice the donuts were stacked on tray in the window behind the counter and not in the donut case. Into my first chocolate, frosted donut it was cold and had to been cooked the day before even the glazed were cold and stale. It appears they are cooking way ahead, which is understandable for glazed and chocolate frosted being the best sellers but I think they're getting a little too far ahead of themselves. I never had this experience at Southern made in Shreveport on 70th. I don't even think the microwave will revive these donuts. read more

You cannot beat a hot and fresh Southern Maid donut. They are the best there is! If you get them midday they are still good, but no where near exceptional. read more

Always good! Get them when they're hot! Always quick service! The best donuts in the south!

Always fresh & hot ~ the best location in Shreveport/Bossier, hands down:). Thank you for wonderful service!

Other than very glazy eyed workers (no pun intended) this location was spacious, clean enough, and of course, had good donuts. Kudos on the cream cheese filled chocolate. read more

These donuts were amazingly fresh and fantastic! A local favorite were decided to try. I think I ate these donuts for breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert--- for 2 days. I should've never bought a dozen.... because I'm too greedy to share, I bought my grand kids their own dozen. I'm so ridiculous! Go... enjoy! read more

We love Southern Maid donuts. We have been enjoying donuts from Southern Maid since 1965 read more

Food is always on point HOWEVER the tall blonde girl behind the counter is rude as heck. I misunderstood what she said and instead of explaining anything she proceeded to huff and puff, throw my stuff around, roll her eyes, and mock me to her coworkers. Her attitude is completely unprofessional. read more

We love Southern Maid's blue berry cake donuts and they only make them one day a week. It's a bummer and prevents us from coming here more frequently. read more

Affordable, tasty, and fresh donuts brought to you by a friendly and helpful staff. Parking is provided.

The southern maid donuts on barksdale can kiss my ass! I ordered a dozen half and half, half chocolate and half glazed, and I got them and not only was the box freezing cold, my damn donuts was also freezing fucking cold!! And then the lady caught a attitude with me when I asked if there was a way I could get them fresh because they are cold asf! And the lady likes, "Well the glaze will be the only ones warm, you will have to deal with the chocolate ones being cold!" Like bitch? I paid $9.35 ALMOST $10 FOR 6 WARM DONUTS AND 6 COLD ONES!! read more

Good old fashion doughnut shop. They s is an institution in this part of the United States.

I lived in Bossier City for two years, and used to frequent this place thinking they had fantastic donuts. Much like the many other places I revisited over the holiday weekend, this one severely disappointed. The donuts while alright, were just that: alright. Everything about them was very forgettable. I honestly think I've had better donuts from a gas station. I got a strawberry iced donut, blueberry stick donut, and a coconut iced donut. I couldn't really pick one that stood out. They were all very mediocre. If you're wanting a really solid donut, this isn't the place. If you're just having a really massive donut craving, and don't mind what sort of donuts you get, then maybe I'd come here. read more

Southern Maid Donuts - Strawberry Iced, Coconut Iced, and Blueberry Stick Donuts - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Bossier City, Louisiana

Just arrived read the reviews figured had to stop and try it. They weren't kidding awesome doughnuts. Always like to try the family style places instead of the big chains. Still had good selection even through it was close to closing time. Updated: We'll drove 6 miles to get some of blueberry donuts that they only make on weekends and they had everything but those and this isn't the first time. Place was very good now bathroom faucet don't work comes off in your hand. Guess he has enough business he wouldn't miss mine! I find another more consistent place.not like donuts are cheap here to start with. Wouldn't be using anymore. read more

Picked up some donuts this morning and they are not what they used to be. Not to mention the young lady stuffed 12 donuts in a tiny box instead of laying them flat on a bigger box. read more

Southern Maid Donuts - This is after I asked for them to be moved to a bigger box bc all of the glaze was getting rubbed off in the smaller box - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Bossier City, Louisiana

These are some of the best donuts I've ever had!! I've never been a huge donut person but wow these are amazing and I'm always craving them!! Pretty good prices too!! I recommend getting a mixed dozen and a bag or 2 of donut holes!! read more

While working at Barksdale AFB, I needed breakfast at ridiculously early in the morning most days, and Southern Maid was the perfect answer! I decided to check them out because they were located near the main (West) gate to the base, but I was quickly convinced to come back after trying their offerings. If you're the type who wants some protein in the morning, they offer "Kolaches" that are a decent sized link of mild or spicy smoked sausage wrapped in dough and then baked, available for a dollar each. If you're looking for the sugar rush, there are a lot of options here, but I'm going to highlight three in particular: 1) The chocolate dipped, sweet cream cheese stuffed donut. This started life as one of their regular yeast donuts, dipped in chocolate, then piped full of the kind of sweet creamy goodness you find topping the best red velvet or carrot cakes. 2) The "pink" glazed donuts - sweet, silky glaze that sets up into a tasty, somewhat berry flavored shell. I'm pretty sure they're a strawberry donut, but when I asked, I was simply told "Honey, it's pink!". Sometimes, that's all the answer you need. 3) The dutch chocolate filled donut. This starts life as a fried yeast donut that gets rolled in cinnamon and sugar, and then pumped almost to bursting with decadently rich dark chocolate. It basically exists as a tiny cinnamon sugary shell to protect that delicious goodness before it can get inside your mouth. They do offer a drive thru, while inside is basically just a few plain tables, but when you're making a 5am donut run, you're not looking for ambiance. If you're visiting Shreveport or the base, this should be one of your first, last, and best stops for sweet goodness! read more

Light, fluffy texture with the glazed donuts, very generously filled donuts and eclairs, and great selection! Sampled several types of donuts and enjoyed them all. Staff was super friendly and helpful. They even have a drive thru. Definitely a winner! read more

Nothing like a good warm southern maid donut. Not sure if they have any outside the local Shreveport/Bossier area, but definitely stop in and have a traditional glazed. read more

The best doughnuts I've ever had. They have made me a hot glazed man! I'm here every Saturday with my daughter. They also do a military discount! read more

Southern Maid Donuts - Hot glazed doughnuts! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Bossier City, Louisiana

Best donuts and plate lunches in the area. Once you have a donut from here you won't go anywhere else. I won't eat Krispy Kreme or dunkin donuts it may be because I grew up with southern maid but it's the best. You are always greeted with a warm friendly smile! read more

i grew up in Shreveport and Southern Maid Doughnuts were an IMPORTANT part of my childhood. Friends have even flown them to Chicago for me. This trip I was staying WAY OUT of town with relatives with no wifi or cell coverage. I remembered fondly the Barksdale Blvd. Southern Maid and stopped in for a coffee and a couple of doughnuts AND to use their wifi and catch up. The one and only attendant --I believe her name was something like Shuana, was sullen....not even returning a greeting. And when I asked her for the password...she not only didn't have it but would not call the manager,Tommy as she did not want to be "chewed out". She said Tommy didn't want to doesn't want to have folks sitting around on the wifi. But then ---why have the service? I was most disappointed! Next trip I will find another location...or go to the ever friendly Mc Donald's down the road. The doughnuts are still great...but the service obviously sucks! read more

The donuts are Delicious I would recommend this donut place to anyone I know if I got the donuts with donut I tried most of the donuts and they were delicious . read more

Best kolaches in town, get lots of mustard!!! The people that work there are always very nice, smiling and make me feel welcome! Delicious coffee also:) great place for good breakfast, and FAST! read more

i love that they changed their hours of operation because waking up late hungover and driving over there to see that they were closed is one of the worst feelings a person can experience, its really heartbreaking. read more

Recently moved from New Jersey and fell I love with this place. Yummy airy donuts. Not too cakey! I'm a Krispy Kreme girl so this place was definitely a win ! read more

Used the drive-thru, service was fast. Donuts were delicious as was the coffee, better than DD & cheaper!

Made a run on this place early on a Saturday, 'round 8 am (that's early for me on a Saturday), the wife had mentioned kolaches earlier in the week and now I had them on the brain. This is the closest Southern Maid to me, so I hopped on the Shreveport-Barksdale Bridge and was here in mere minutes. The place was hopping, but I was tended to immediately. I ordered a dozen kolaches (6 mild, 6 spicy) The only reason I ordered the mild, is because I wasn't sure if the wife wanted all spicy, and I left my cell phone at home and well, you know how that goes. The mild kolaches are good, but I'm definitely a spicy kolcahe kinda guy. And not all Southern Maids sell kolaches, but this one does and the spicy kolaches are the business! Next time, it's all spicy, all the time! A kolache, by the way, to those that don't know, is kinda like a pig-in-the-blanket, it's sausage rolled up in dough, but waaaaaay better! And since I was in a doughnut shop, I ordered a half dozen glazed (right?) and one chocolate-filled doughnut (yeah!), one raspberry-filled doughnut (uh-huh!) and one white-cream-filled doughnut (that's what I'm talking about!). All the goods rang up a shade under 20 bucks. It was weird, because I noticed one side of the doughnut box, was blue and white and the rest of the box, was the traditional green and white, I asked why this was, having never seen this before in my Southern Maid-eating life, the the worker told me, that the empty boxes sit in the window of the store and the sun bleaches them and they turn blue...Interesting...I did not know that! Go LSU! Beat Florida! read more

Clean, Wonderful, and Polite I love Southern Maid Donuts especially when the glaze is thick enough to lick off of your hands and donuts. The workers are all very caring and professional. They go out of their way making sure everyone leaves the shop happy with their order. There is no standing around waiting for your order. They are very efficient and clean with your order. They realize how important it is to get hot or warm donuts. Boy! are they delicious. I live in Shreveport, but come to this location to buy my donuts because the workers don't tell you how much glaze you need on your donuts. I have tried to pay for a double dip in the glaze because there wasn't much glaze on them. I have also been told that I could only buy one or two donuts when there were plenty of donuts in the stand. Nope, I am not over weight. Anyhow, thanks to this location, I don't have to hear or deal with their sorry excuses. I take my business to Bossier City where they are so kind and friendly. The shop is always clean and inviting to sit and eat with your family or alone. read more

Tried this place when we first arrived in the area after many recommendations. This place has the worst donuts I've ever had in my 30-year life. Even gave them another chance and still the donuts are nothing to rave about. The glazed donut tastes dense and the glaze leaves a thick coating the tongue. All their other products are subpar. I have no clue why people think this place has the "best" donuts. read more

The Southern Maid donuts are the epitome of southern donuts. I've LOVED Southern Maid donuts forever and I'm 57. I don't like any other donut. Southern Maids are always lighter than others and the glazes are perfect!!! I'm a big fan. read more

Use to eat these growing up in the area. Today I got to bring my son, while in town visiting. They are just as yummy as I remember. Great yeast donuts and the glazed melt in your mouth. read more
