Mustang Donuts

Donut Sunday! This place is delicious! I come here EVERY Sunday not only for myself but for my coworkers and customers at my work! Everyone looks forward to the donuts (glazed, chocolate and sprinkled) and it is always the best! I’ve tried 3 – 4 places on Sunday’s before I found this gem and I will never go anywhere else!
They are always super friendly! One thing to know is line is usually out the door but it’s worth the wait because it goes by really fast! It’s on campus so I expected a lot of college kids and it’s actually more families than anything.
I’m notorious for not having cash so I always have to go to the ATM but there’s one walking distance.
The donuts are soft, dense, and gooey. They’re not super thin and shrink to nothing when you bite. It just melts but enough to let you taste and enjoy the flavor.

I come here an embarrassing amount to get my caffiene fix: only $ 1.50 for 32 oz of soda.
The donuts are good and really inexpensive. I love that they sell individual sprinkled donut holes, the perfect treat.
This place is cash only so remember that.
The owners/​employees are so, so nice and are always willing to throw in extras.

I can’t believe I didn’t discover their amazing strawberry donut as an undergrad! Like nothing I’ve tasted before, the icing makes it perfect! Worth the wait, the staff is very friendly, works fast and the delicacies are always warm!!!

There’s really not much hype to the donuts or kolaches here other then the fact that it’s the closest to the SMU campus. There are many SMU a alumni and supporters in the area which lead to huge crowds on a weekday and especially a weekend morning. Unfortunately it’s not worth the wait here but it is convenient to Highland Park residents and SMU students as well as Starbucks customers.

I have been coming here since I was little. They have a great selection and always fresh and fantastic.

My favorite donuts in town. The donuts are fresh, not fussy, and they do not skimp on the sprinkles.
My only complaint is they close too early like all donut shops in dallas.

CASH ONLY & Nothing Special about this place!
So we saw the reviews in D Magazine (Dallas) that was voted #1 back in 2011 but this place was an ordinary donut shop. There literally is nothing special about this place or stood out to me. If you want great original donuts, you should try the donut shop on Oak Lawn and Maple Ave. This was a total bust and I was super disappointed, nothing spectacular about it at all. Maybe bc it’s near SMU? Geee, it may be convenient but certainly not the best. And I hope the person from D Mag back in 2011 still does not write for them anymore, because they would be leading you all astray.

Would love to review the donuts but since it’s 2014 and cash is a thing of the past I had to pass! Luckily Krispy Kreme wasn’t too far away!

I tried their plain cake centers, regular glazed donut and a buttermilk. Really enjoyed all of them. The cash only thing is my only complaint.

Best Donut Shop in Park Cities! I love Mustang Dounts, and it is always a treat.
Cake donuts, buttermilk donuts, and icing with sprinkles are my favorites. Reasonble prices as well.
If you get the trivia of the week question correct, they give you a free glazed donut.

The people who work here are incredibly thick in the skull. We were the only people in the place and the woman taking our order couldn’t get it right after about 5 minutes of her condescendingly asking us questions and looking at us like we were stupid.
I’m giving it 2 stars because I was hungry and it was better than Krispy Kreme.

I used to get breakfast from Mustang Donuts from time to time when I lived nearby, but I haven’t been there in years. I decided to randomly swing by today since I was in the neighborhood. FYI, they don’t take credit cards, just cash and checks. Fortunately, nothing on the menu is too expensive, so rummage through your couch cushions for some change and head on in.
Their donut holes are always good, so I ordered a dozen: ½ dozen of the cinnamon sugar and ½ dozen of the blueberry cake. Despite my precise order, I ended up with 10 cinnamon and 7 blueberry. Either they can’t count or they just grab whatever and don’t bother counting. Oh well, I won’t complain about extra donuts. I also snagged a sausage roll, which thankfully they didn’t try to pass off as a kolache (though several other customers referred to it as such, sigh).
The cinnamon sugar donut holes were really light and fluffy. They also had just the right amount of cinnamon and weren’t overly sweet. The blueberry variety was a nice cakey donut hole, but wasn’t too dense. Blueberry flavoring can be overpowering sometimes, but theirs was a nice mild flavor. As for the sausage roll, a large cocktail weenie does not a sausage make. The homemade bread was good and decently flaky, so at least that’s something.
Mustang Donuts offers a decent, inexpensive breakfast for a donut shop, but don’t expect anything too special.

Donuts are homemade with real homemade icing. A few bites and you are sick full floating on cloud 9 donut heaven. Once you eat homemade ecstasy you can’t even look at store bought or chain donuts in the eye.
Someone brought Dunkin Donuts to work and it tasted like garbage compared to Mustang. I ate one quarter of the chain Donut, threw it in the trash and vowed never to commit Donut adultery again. No scarlet A for me, I want a big homemade dripping with thick icing letter ‘M’ for mustang on my chest.
Just to give you a lil background, I live in the neighborhood and often ran past this joint and smirked at the ‘screw your health’ donut line goers.
But after sharing one with Ma and Sis, I know why donut party line goers are all smiling and screwing their health. These babies sell like Hotcakes for a reason and are worth the calories.

A coworker brought Mustang Donuts in for us this morning. I had a chocolate glazed donut, which is my donut of choice. This tasted just like any other yeast donut I have had. This was nothing spectacular but the donut was still tasty. I tried a bite of the regular cake donut and it was a little dry.
However, with the location, this is super close to my office. I might try to stop in sometime and see how their prices are.

I’d like to be able to review their food, but alas, they only accept cash or check. It’s amazing to me that in 2014 a place will accept checks as a form of payment but not debit cards.
Appearance wise, this place looks to be a standard donut shop, nothing more, nothing less. Their sausage rolls looked doughy and dense and they refer to donut holes and cake balls, but we know what they really are.
This shop isn’t one I am willing to go to an ATM for, so I guess my review will always be missing the most important part, but oh well, accept cards!

In the Uptown-​ish area, there’s actually very few doughnut shops around! Apparently, they’ve be replaced by the proliferation of frozen yogurt shops!
Now donuts are a bit unhealthy for my usual routine but, who doesn’t love a sweet doughnut from time to time?! Mustang Donuts is a great place to pickup a dozen on the way to the office to please a client or your co-​workers. They’ve got great donuts and it’s pretty close to home for me. Parking can be a tad fussy as it is along Hillcrest across from SMU.
On my last visit, it was a school holiday so it was not the best day to stop in. Park cities moms and their screaming children lining out the door! Keep in mind they take cash only so come prepared.
Stop in before your next work meeting for a dozen served with a smile!

Well, just another weak donut shop. Went in this morning to buy coffee & a chocolate donut. At alittle before 7am, how do you not have a chocolate iced donut?! This has got to be the #2 selling donut in the history of donuts after the glazed donut! So you shouldn’t be running out no matter how good they are. But if they taste like the glazed donut, it’s even more inexplicable.
Not sure why it’s considered so special, oh well, no accounting for taste.

These donuts are AMAZING!!! Loved them! The perfect light and airy feel! I loved the white icing sprinkled one, to die for! They were all great! CASH ONLY so make sure you have some on you! I had to run to a nearby ATM.
Only complaint is because it can get packed in the morning on the weekends… parking can be tough!

I ended up here while looking for Yummy Donuts. Pretty standard donuts. No complaints though.

Since they seem to be everywhere, I wanted to checkout a donut shop before departing Big D so I googled «best donuts Dallas» on our last morning and Mustang was ranked #1 on the first result. It was nearby so we stopped in.
The line looked long but the staff did a good job moving through it quickly. We were in and out in 5 minutes.
I had the Mustang Cream Filled donut and my wife had the chocolate version. Both were fluffy and tasty. Cream wasn’t overly sweet but it left me wanting water.
I’m not sure what I expected because it was just like any bakery I’ve been to in Minneapolis, but either way it was still good.
