Mrs Murphy's Donuts

A lot of people think that the donuts at Mrs. Murphy's are pricey, but compared to a Dunkin' donut, at $0.90, you get double the size, frosting, freshness, everything for only $1.00 or $1.10. I only think dunkin donuts are worth a quarter. They also have great cheese danishes and lots and lots of other homemade pastries to choose from. My favorite thing is that no matter what time of day you go there, everything stays fresh, unlike Dunkin' where everything goes stale after noon.

Mrs Murphy's has good doughnuts but they are over priced and the facility is completely inaccessible to Individuals that have a mobility disability! I would give it 0 stars, to earn any stars there would need to be an All Inclusive Access ramp installed.

I have been asked to bring Mrs. Murphy's donuts to meetings in the Eastern part of the state! Whenever someone finds out I live in Southwick they ask me to bring the donuts! Friendly, clean, prompt service and the best tasting, freshest donuts you could ask for. Not to mention great soups & sandwiches for lunch!

What would Southwick be without Mrs. Murphy's? Whenever we tell people where we live the first thing they say is "we love Mrs. Murphy's donuts". These are people from Connecticut and all over western Mass. We love the donuts and especially the cinnamon buns. They melt in your mouth.

Mrs Murphys is a real down home kind of place. The donuts are awesome. The soups and stews are homemade right there and are really good. They have a counter to sit at with the round stools that brings back memories of going out with my Dad when I was younger.

You will find many people who love Mrs. Murphy's donuts. I'm not from this area though and have to admit I prefer Dunkin Donuts. I believe Mrs. Murphy's is an acquired tast.

Mrs. Murphy's is one of a kind. Dunkin and Honey Dew can't compare. The chocolate frosted are out of this world. The H.S. baseball coach brings Mrs. Murphy's donuts to the 7 a.m. Saturday practices. It's an incentive that had my teenage boy, rubbing sleep from his eyes, saying "C'mon Mom, drive faster..." Apparently the popular flavors are gone very quickly...

Mrs. Murphy's Donuts has been in town for about 30 years. They have the most delicious donuts ever tasted. Also, the friendly, personable owners and staff make you feel right at home. This reminds me of the old General Store when people stayed for half a day playing checkers! You don't want to leave it's so cozy!

The BEST donuts ever! They practically melt in your mouth especially when they're fresh and warm. You can also eat in the restaurant for breakfast or lunch. But be sure not to leave without getting at least one donut!

Donuts are an infrequent treat...but when that time rolls around nobody beats Mrs Murphy's for freshness and taste. My daughters favorite is the chocolate glazed.

Before I moved to Western Mass I was told about Mrs Murphys Donuts. When I moved here I had to check them out and they were right. They are the best doughnuts in Western Mass. The place is nothing to look at but the donuts and warm service bring you back to a time before there was a coffee joint on every corner. You should check it out for yourself and see.

It is always a treat to stop by here on a Sunday after Church. The donuts are always fresh. Sometimes if you time it right you can have a warm donut out of the oven. The coffee is great too.

some of the recent changes were not the best. bring back the buttercrunch and the coconut. we don't want to have to ask for them when we come in. the donuts are excellent and are a great treat on a sunday for the kids. the donuts are a local favorite. also known for very good breakfast sandwiches and soups. local hangout for the retirees. worth the trip. ask for the buttercrunch---split it with a friend.

Without a doubt the best donut's in the area. If your lucky enough to get them warm, fresh out of the oven, you'll never shop for donuts anywhere else again. They are a bit pricey compared to other shops in the area but they are definitely worth it. The counter help is always friendly and the service is great.

These are great donuts and well worth the effort to get them. The downside to this store is the difficult entrance and exit from parking. On a busy day it can be hazardous.

Here's a tip. Get there early. Sit at the counter. Enjoy a coffee. When you see a fresh tray of donuts come out. Order it. It doesnt matter whether its your favorite flavor or not. You will be blown away by the taste. Not the cheapest...but the best.

While Mrs. Murphy's has outstanding donuts and pasteries...the price is getting to the outlandish state. We appreciate great food and understand the need to charge for such services, but where do we put a limit...I would not travel to Southwick just to get donuts, (thank goodness my employer supplies them occassionally, but if I were passing through, I may stop.

This is the best donut shop around. Located on College Highway makes it a little difficult to pull in and out of. Their donut selection is fabulous. I love their cinnamon buns!!! Their coffees are rich and it is not necessary for a lot of sugar. Remember to bring cash, they don't accept debit, but have a mechine outside that you can get cash from.

Mrs Murphy's Donuts has the best donuts in town. There is no doubt about it. The biggest problem with Mrs. Murphy's unfortunately is their location on College Hwy and difficulty pulling in and out of the parking lot. It is dangerous pulling either in or out but the donuts make up for it. Claire

Just love there donuts. No one can come close to them. Very busy donut shop. The parking lot isn't the best but it is worth it. They also have great soups at lunch time.

Mrs. Murphy's has some wonderful donuts. They are always there at work in the morning. My favorite is the plain sugar. I have never been in it myself, but I hear it is a very busy place.

You can smell this place a mile away! The donuts are HUGE and absolutely delicious. No chain taste here, only fresh which is the best. The sugared donuts are my favorite. A box does not last long that is for certain.

Mrs. Murphy's Donuts is a legend in Western Massachusetts. Everyone has their favorites (mine are the sugar doughnuts) and the fly off the shelves sometimes faster than they can be made. They make a nice treat. Enjoy!

These are the BEST donuts around. The counter help is always friendly and they always make the chocolate coconut donut we get for my mom even if there aren't any in plain sight. The prices are good. I have yet to try a sandwich but they always look so good.

Mrs. Murphy's is a good old fashioned donut shop with a wonderful selection of donuts and pastries. Take some home or have a seat at the counter for coffee and breakfast. These donuts are heavy so one is usually enough. Excellent service and conversation.

A great place to go on a cold winter morning for a warm home made doughnut. They are made fresh every morning and have a great selection to choose from. They do have a selection of lunch sandwiches everyday, chili and soups specials every day. You cant come to Southwick and not go try a Murphy's doughnut.

Mrs. Murphy's Donuts is a staple of Southwick. They offer the best home made style donuts you can ask for. In addition, they offer a full breakfast and lunch menu. They open early and close after lunch.

Just watch out for the parking lot, they are on a busy road so entering and exiting can be dicey.
