Few words can capture immediate attention, turn a head, and make someone salivate quite like the word DONUT. A universal food that makes a delectable snack any time of day or night, donuts are loved by everyone – and so is Paul’s Pastry Shop in Burlington, North Carolina.
Paul's makes fresh donuts, pastries, and cakes daily and has been doing so since 1942.

What about cannoli? Can you ever have too many of them at the ready for a mid-day or late-night craving?
Folks in Burlington have been seeking out donuts and more from Paul's Pastry Shop (originally named Phil's until 1968) since 1942 when Burlington's economy saw a WWII boom from the federal government with the installation of a manufacturing plant that made test aircraft.
The pastry shop is now on its fourth owner, and although the shop may have changed hands over the years, at least three things have remained constant: the quality and variety of the sweet confections and cakes, the friendly and personal service customers receive, and the loyalty of Burlington residents and their taste buds.
If you haven't tried a donut or pastry from one of the oldest pastry shops in the state yet, then it's never too late to grab a dozen donuts (and more!) from Paul's Pastry Shop — unless you arrive after their 2 p.m. closing time.
