South Side's Dat Donut is open 24 hours for all your donut needs. Grab a glazed, chocolate , buttermilk , or cake and if you've really got a hankering, go for a signature Big Dat doughnut . Read more

When the donuts are freshly made , and still warm; you can't find donuts any better! Yummy, yummy, yummy says it all. If you haven't already, stop by and pick up some for the whole family!!

If you are in a fresh donut kind of mood this is the place to go . They have a big delicious variety and they have coffee , juice , as well as sandwiches .

The doughnuts are really good. I know people come for the fritters , but as crazy as the Big Dat seems, that giant doughnut is fluffy, yeasty, & just enough glaze to be perfect. Get one to share...

Our favorite donut is of the buttermilk persuasion. These lightly glazed, slightly tangy cake doughnuts achieve what few of their kind can—an airiness resembling that of their yeast-risen brethren. Read more

In case you were wondering, the vanilla frosted one is filled with jelly , the chocolate frosted is Boston Creme , and the glass is bulletproof. Order two donuts and tip your server well !

Romunda Ratliff

Donuts were so fresh and delicious. Even the coffee was good!

Big Mark

Everything! Every donut is greasy and delicious and the breakfast sandwiches are the Bomb.
