Shorty's Donuts

Honestly I ate here a year ago, and I ate here today. I believe in second chances and trying to support small/local businesses, but after giving them a second chance. I will not be back. On my first visit I got a BEC biscuit, it had a hair in it and mediocre at best. I can get past accidental hair, that's going to happen. Second visit, I ordered the 2 pancake meal, with 2 eggs and with bacon. $8.99 not an awful price, didn't receive my bacon. I also ordered a cake donut stick I believe is what the lady called it. Burnt on the side, and okay I suppose outside of that. Wonderful customer service both times, so I'm not knocking that, but the food isn't for me. Sadly I won't be back. Good just isn't that great. :( God bless!!

I’ve been here 3 times in the past 2 weeks. I’ve been treated kind each time and service is always swift. I order the Pittsburgh hot links with chili and cheese on the side for my dad and I. I’ve tried their iced coffee and the pies. Everything is 10/10.To the lady with the glasses, curly hair, and tattoos I appreciate you so much! You always do an amazing job! ❤️

Having eaten Pittsburgh hot links in Pittsburgh my entire life I was stoked to find Shorty's and see they prepare and serve their hot links in the manner I was used to in Pittsburgh.. the links were great, as I'm sure the rest of the menu is as well .. I'll definitely be a regular customer

Very disappointed. Google says they're open on Sundays. Drove over here and they're not open on Sundays. Posted hours are Monday through Saturday onlyCame back today. Ordered a biscuit and sausage gravy. Flavor was alright, but I prefer creamier gravy. I will come back again.

Recently had to do some work In Texarkana and found this place through google. Could not be more pleased with this breakfast spot. Do yourself a favor and have the “old fashion” donut. Met the owners, they are there everyday and a pleasure to see when you come in. I will be back every time I am in the area!

Killer breakfast joint!!! Very glad my wife and I stumbled into this place. Very worth the drive. It's name is misleading, donuts are served, but their omelets were freaking awesome!!! We will be back and it was very worth the drive!!Revisit:Back again, same service and food!!! Glad to have found this place!

No matter how bad of a day your are having, if the donuts and food won't put a smile on your face, the sweet ladies that work there sure will.

A female worker wiped a customer chili cup with her shirt and I was balford. I stated poor customer service everywhere and once I got my order most of my Pittsburg hot links burnt. Put I had a appointment and couldn't take them back. Oan I've seen roaches crawling on the walls in that place so be careful

One of the hidden treasures in a big city. Found this place by accident but enjoyed the home style cooking. I ordered biscuits and gravy with a slab of ham, everything was delicious and I'm a picky eater.

The donuts are always yummy and somehow taste like they were just made no matter what time of day you go there! The girl at the drive thru window was super nice and she even gave my dog a plain donut! She was so pleasant and cheerful, a nice way to start the day!

UpdateIt's been one of my go to places since the first review.If we were eating just the rate of the food it'd be higher. No complaints for the service by the ladies taking the orders, as they were sweet.We ordered a double bacon cheeseburger plain and dry and a burger no onions and well done fries.Fries were not well done, burger has lots of onions and the double bacon was not plain or dry. Exchanged the bacon burger, got a new one made but by the time we left with our to go order, we noticed there was no bacon.That being said, the food was good and tasty, but normally I'd give less than 3 stars for every order being wrong.Maybe I'll give them another shot, as the food was good, but I would not recommend to go order, perhaps it's better to eat in to get what you order and pay for.Forgot to add: best cinnamon roll type dessert (but wasn't actually a cinnamon roll)

This is a local restaurant that has been around Texarkana forever. I had an omelet, and it was excellent. I also really enjoyed the biscuits on the side. I highly recommend getting a side of salsa with the omelette. The prices were also good. I highly recommend you check it out! They have donuts, but they have so much more. The service was a little slow as far as getting a refill on my drink, but they did a good job taking my order and getting my food out.As far as atmosphere, it has a bit of that hometown hole in the wall feel. It's not fancy, and you certainly won't want to take a date there, but it's got that intangible friendly quality that's nice to find in a local restaurant.

Amazingly outgoing staff, friendly environment, with great homemade food! Went in for a to-go order for the first time and was offered to taste sausages before ordering! Even left with free donuts, 10/10 will be back! Never had a better experience.

Another Texarkana-staple! Family owned comfort food. Highly recommend the burgers. Their links are similar to boudin so a big heads up if you’re texture-sensitive.

The biscuits were very dry , the gravy was sour ( found out it was made 2 days ago, I take it that the biscuits were not freshly made either).The donuts were raw in the middle ( the large butter rolls donuts and apple fritters).I was deeply disappointed , because it was a once a great place to eat.The tables were sticky and unclean.We will not go back again.Praying Noone gets sick from the food and that they can pull things together again.God bless and good luck Shortys!!!

They used to be good I'm not sure what happened. They have young girls running everything. We had our order taken twice in the drive thru. When we got our order it's half of what they give you inside and my grandma tried to get a senior breakfast and all they gave her was bacon and eggs. I don't think we will be coming back here sadly

It's been awhile since we've ate at Shorty's and it will be a while longer. As always, food and coffee was good but their service is horrible. I didn't get the oj with my breakfast and we Never got any coffee refills. Apparently you have to be a constant regular to not get ignored in there?! And yet they asked for a tip....I don't think so! Smh

Shorty's Donut's was a good place to go for great service and a nostalgic diner type atmosphere. The breakfast burrito that I had was okay. I could tell that it was homemade because it didn't have that "processed chain restaurant" taste, which really appealed to me. My daughter enjoyed her meal more than I, but I repeat, it wasn't bad at all, just okay. I plan to go back and try other menu items because I could see that the people that seemed to be regulars here really seem to enjoy it.
