Plan your trip!
Google Maps Before we embark on this delightfully delicious donut trail in Pennsylvania, we should note that because it’s a day trip we only have time to stop at a small selection of the state’s best donut shops. That said, get ready for the sugar rush of your life as you embark on the Pennsylvania donut trail. Off we go!
- Federal Donuts, Philadelphia
Facebook/Federal Donuts
Facebook/Federal Donuts Let’s start our scrumptious journey at Federal Donuts in Philadelphia. (The popular donut shop has several locations in the city, but we’re stopping at South Street for this trail. Or, customize the Google directions, so you can visit your favorite location.) Though its name focuses on donuts, Federal Donuts is known for two things: Donuts and fried chicken. Can you think of a better combo? How about trying fried chicken on a honey donut? Or a fried chicken sandwich? Of course, you have plenty of donuts from which to choose, including cookies and cream, chocolate peanut butter crunch, and Mexican hot chocolate. To learn more about Federal Donuts, visit the website.
- Donut Haven, Garnet Valley

Facebook/Donut Haven Our next stop takes us to Booth’s Corner Farmer’s Market, where we’ll find Donut Haven. The popular donut shop, a beloved farmer’s market staple, has been open since 1973. Stop by to try such delicious homemade goodies as donuts, pastries, and butter cake. And, even though this is a donut trail, be sure to try Donut Haven’s famous sticky cinnamon buns. To learn more, visit Donut Haven’s Facebook page.
- Benchwarmer’s Coffee and Doughnuts, West Reading

FourSquare/Brian K. If you love dunking your fresh donut into a piping hot cup of coffee, you’re going to love our next stop. Benchwarmer’s Coffee and Doughnuts serves fresh-brewed coffee and espresso, the perfect pairing for your donut(s). But, what kind of donut will you try? Peruse the selection that includes cinnamon and sugar, chocolate and rainbow sprinkles, and chocolate and fresh strawberry. Or, order a fresh glazed donut with three of your favorite toppings - from ground coffee and raspberry to graham cracker and caramel sauce for some of the best donuts in Pennsylvania. To learn more about Benchwarmer’s Coffee and Doughnuts, visit the website.
- Duck Donuts, King of Prussia
FourSquare/Brenda M.
FourSquare/Dave L. If you haven’t tried Duck Donuts, you don’t know what you’re missing. Let’s fix that at our next stop in King of Prussia. You’ll have to make a few delicious decisions first, however. Start with the classic vanilla cake donut (and even watch as your donut is made fresh). Then, decide what type of coating you want: glazed, cinnamon, bare, or another? Of course, you also have to choose your toppings (everything from sprinkles to Oreos) and a drizzle (hot fudge, raspberry, salted caramel, or marshmallow). Or, if you prefer something other than a made-to-order donut, try the chocolate icing with chocolate sprinkles or the classic powdered sugar donut. To learn more about Duck Donuts, visit the website.
- Beiler’s Doughnuts, Philadelphia
Trip Advisor/K O
Facebook/Beiler’s Doughnuts Our final stop on this delectable donut trail in Pennsylvania takes us back to Philadelphia and to Beiler’s Doughnuts in Reading Terminal Market. (The popular donut shop has several locations in Philadelphia and Lancaster.) Peruse the mouthwatering selection of donuts that includes such flavors as caramel apple, chocolate mousse, and peanut butter jelly. Order one or opt for a dozen to go. To learn more about Beiler’s Doughnuts, visit the website.

Best Donuts In Pennsylvania April 23, 2021 Melissa M What are the best restaurants in Pennsylvania? Pennsylvania has numerous incredible restaurants, many of which belong on your bucket list. Pittsburgh and Philadelphia are even considered some of the best dining destinations in the United States, but you can find excellent dining options all across the state. Some of the top restaurants include Schultheis’ Carriage House Restaurant set in an 1800s farmhouse in East Greenville. The unique ambiance, delicious food, and specialty wines and beer make this a memorable place to dine. If you are looking for a place to be entertained watching a play while dining, purchase tickets for Dutch Apple Dinner Theatre in Lancaster. For more options, visit our previous post on highly rated restaurants in Pennsylvania. What other food trails can I take in Pennsylvania? We have several food trails in and around the Keystone State, so let’s get ready to explore! Do you like hoagies? We have a hoagie trail taking you around the state in search of the best deli hoagies. If you want another sweet trail, take this delicious ice cream trail around the Finger Lakes region. From a dairy farm to a creamery and a variety of ice cream shops, you will be able to satisfy your sweet tooth in no time! Where can I find the best coffee shops in Pennsylvania? Obviously donuts and coffee go hand-in-hand, so if we spend time discussing the best donuts in Pennsylvania, then we must address the best coffee shops! Specialty lattes can be found at Muggles Mug Coffee Shop, a Harry Potter-themed cafe in Jim Thorpe. Order a Butterbeer latte which tastes like butterscotch or Deathly Hallows with notes of chocolate and orange. Whether or not you’re a Potterhead, a trip to Muggles is worth it for the one-of-a-kind coffee concoctions. In Butler, which is close to Pittsburgh, lies another cafe, one that’s been around for well over 100 years. Cummings Candy and Coffee House offers fresh roasted coffee and chocolates! It’s the best of both worlds here at this cafe.
