About Our Donuts
A Legacy of Deliciousness
For over 60 years, donuts have been a part of the Akron, PA community.
W Donuts is continuing the tradition using the same recipes. While we’ve added new flavors and fresh ideas, we’ve stayed true to what matters most: hand-crafted, high-quality donuts made with care. It’s a legacy we’re proud to carry forward.
Fresh, Hand-Crafted Flavors
Every donut is made by hand, using only the freshest ingredients. From classic flavors you love to exciting new creations, we’ve always got something for everyone. Our rotating weekly specials keep things fresh, fun, and full of flavor.
Special Orders & Occasions
Need donuts for a birthday, holiday, or company event? We’ve got you covered. From custom decorations to unique fillings like pumpkin and Dutch apple cheesecake, we’re ready to make your event unforgettable. Plus, for bigger occasions, The Dub Truck is available to bring fresh donuts right to your venue.
