SMITH DONUTS 2 — Restaurant in Fort Smith

I’ve been hearing all the buzz about Smith Donuts in Fort Smith, Arkansas—and their huge variety of fresh donuts made daily. So yesterday, I finally made the drive to see what all the hype was about.

Right when we walked in, we were greeted warmly and with genuine friendliness. I went straight to hunting down the ones on my must-try list: the Cronut, Pineapple Raised, Strawberry Raised, Apple Fritter, and Blueberry Fritter.

Dora was helping us out, and let me just say—she’s a firecracker! She even recognized me from Facebook and my reviews, which was such a fun surprise. I couldn’t find the Cronuts at first, but Dora went to the back and brought out a hot, fresh batch straight from the fryer, and let me tell you—I didn’t even wait. I opened the box right there at the register and took a bite. That Cronut was absolute heaven—layers of pillowy, buttery dough with a crisp, flaky exterior, all wrapped in a sweet glaze. It honestly sent me into a donut-induced euphoria. If you’re wondering whether it’s worth the trip—YES. GO. NOW.

Next, I tried the Pineapple Donut. It was good, but honestly, nothing could compare to that Cronut. The fritters were solid, but I’m still loyal to my favorite ones up in Gravette.

Overall, the experience was awesome—from the amazing service to the huge variety of fresh donuts. And the cherry on top? The team gave me a box of hot, fresh donut holes to try—for free. So thoughtful!

Smith Donuts is officially my favorite donut shop in the River Valley. 🍩🔥

Went last weekend on smith donuts around 930 10 the place was dead so we start ordering 3 different people take our order then they got busy soo. They had my order all the 3 people that work the only one rig us up so I did a run down on what we order the girl rung us up and paid for what I oder but forgot one oder so the whole entire time we are eating one of the 3 people got our order was staring at us down like we stole a donuts soon we got up start cleaning up the table lady the start accusing us we stole and did not pay for order but I had the receipt she was all mad because of 1 order that the other person that check us out didn't put on my bill we offer to pay for but told us that we didn't paid but I have the receipt except for 1 order that I didn't ring up my self and I guess the owner step up told us it's on the house...

Smith Donuts has some of the most fluffiest, melt in your mouth donuts I have ever had. They aren’t too sweet like some donuts and are light and crispy. We bought a dozen for only around 13$! Me and my husband used to spend that much for just 4 donuts at Dunkin’ donuts, but not anymore! Also if you are wanting crème donuts they fill it as you pick them out which I find so cool! That way you know they haven’t been sitting in the bread making them soggy plus I am sure it helps when waste once it gets close to closing time. The staff is so friendly as well! We didn’t pick up drinks or anything but the prices there were awesome too! I also like the fact they don’t close at 12 pm like most donut shops. 4 am to 4 pm are such good hours!! I have no complaints and highly recommend you try...
