Best donuts in Pennsylvania?

https://www.foodandwine.com/travel/restaurants/best-doughnuts-every-state


Pennsylvania

In an age when even the most stubbornly classic doughnut makers have capitulated to the visually-minded crowd, not that there's anything wrong with bright colors and brioche dough (if you know what you're doing), one of the finest doughnuts in America comes from a charming little relic called Oram's Donut Shop, in a relic of a town called Beaver Falls, up the road from Pittsburgh. Plenty of people know that for the best doughnuts around, you've got to make a little bit of a drive. If you've ever had a cinnamon roll doughnut before—which is exactly what it sounds like: two delicious things at once—chances are you've never had one as epically gargantuan as the number one seller at Oram's, in business since the 1930s. That and a selection of their classic cream-filled, with a schmear of frosting on top—they're absolutely worth a drive, and from a lot farther than Pittsburgh.


I can personally vouch for the deliciousness of ALL varieties of Oram's Donuts, not just the cinnamon rolls.

(noon during the epidemic) but by 8-9AM, there's not a lot of product left.

I love the honey raisin donuts, but the last time I asked for one, was told they stopped making them.

I’m pretty sure they were turned into a corporate chain. They didn’t taste the same last time I was there.
