Paul's Pastry Shop NC — Restaurant in Burlington

Love their donuts...they are the best around and have been sense the original owner open the shop. In December 2019 I ordered two pies to take to Christmas Dinners and was EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED and embarrassed. Chocolate pie was $15 and Pecan pie was over $17 dollars. $33 Dollars thrown away! Worst chocolate pie EVER...could not eat it. Was made with a graham cracker crust and filled with what tasted like chocolate donut frosting...was so sweet no one could eat it at Christmas. The Pecan pie was pretty...too pretty and too perfect looking. I could see, taste and tell that it was a store purchased pie being resold for $17. If had wanted a non-bakery made pie I would have went to the store and paid $8 for it. Disappointed in Paul's and will never reorder/buy another...

I don’t think I will ever come here again. There are better choices including the high end grocery stores. I used to be a frequent customer at the old location but life gets in the...

I have a friend who no longer drives. Monday she was craving maple bacon donuts but the shops were closed. This morning, after Ash Wednesday service I tried to go to the shop near my house to surprise her but they were closed. I tried to think of where I could get the donuts and I remembered the shop near my mom's neighborhood that my mom talked about. I called up and although they didn't have any made, the manager offered to make some for me. My friend was happily surprised & Paul's has a new customer! Thanks for spreading some sunshine on...
