Sara Donuts — Restaurant in Johns Creek

The quality and taste matched exactly how they looked.. perfect, fresh and delicious. The donuts are made fresh daily, all the filled donuts are filled right there on the spot when you order it (impressive) and they’re not stingy with any of the ingredients. The filled donuts are filled, the maple bacon donuts have a bunch of bacon, and the icing donuts have a good amount of icing.

I’ve been to another Sara Donuts closer to me, and it didn’t it taste or look the same as this location. I drove further for this specific location because the quality was consistently better and I’ll definitely always come here because of how warmhearted the owner is and how friendly all the other staff is.

I visited over a month ago for the first time and talked about how my brother found this place and it reminded me of a mom and pop shop in Houston, TX. I came in today and she immediately remembered our conversation about Texas and was just as nice and friendly as before. She’s only seen me once, and I don’t think anything visually stood out to be memorable. The donuts are great, but that lady really showed me how much of a gem she and her store are and how much love and effort goes into this place.

Definitely worth going to this specific store just for her, but I’ve never been disappointed with any of the donuts in the few...

TLDR: I’ll add photos next time I go, but trust me that this might be the best yeast donut you’ll ever eat. Story time— My dad’s best friend used to live down the road from Sara’s and would start all of his mornings with coffee and a donut from there. He was a proud Boston native, who would complain about “Donuts just not (being) the same,” down here and was a super critic of every donut south of Massachusetts. But he would also say that once he discovered Sara Donuts, he would gladly die from a diabetic coma if it meant getting to eat those fluffy treasures every day of life. He started bringing a box of glazed, chocolate covered, and strawberry iced yeast donuts to my brothers and me every single Sunday morning for a few years, and thus began my obsession. That was 15 years ago, and Sara Donuts still holds the top spot in my heart today. I don’t live close enough to experience it often, but there have been times I’ve made the 35-40 minute drive just because I needed that fix. I believe there are many great donuts around Gwinnett Co. but I know that none of them are greater than a Sara donut.

P.S. There are other “Sarah’s” locations around metro ATL, and they’re great, but the original Medlock Bridge spot is just something different,...

Sara Donuts is hands down the best donut shop in Georgia. Their donuts are always fresh, soft, and perfectly made with just the right amount of sweetness. From classic glazed to filled and specialty flavors, every single one tastes like it was made with care. The texture is light and fluffy, never heavy or greasy, which makes them stand out from anywhere else.

Beyond the donuts, Sara Donuts also offers a great selection of breakfast items, coffee, and drinks to start the day right. The quality and consistency have been unmatched for years—you can always count on them for the same great taste every visit.

The staff is welcoming, friendly, and efficient, making sure the service matches the quality of the food. The shop is clean, inviting, and has that local charm that makes you want to come back again and again.
