Peace, Love and Little Donuts of the Strip District

Very cutesy place to go to. Has seating area upstairs. The donuts were absolutely amazing. Me and my girlfriend went and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It’s really cool how they make each donut in front of you. Also the worker was very kind and gave us two free sugar donuts. 100% would recommend!!

These mini donuts are seriously addicting - 50+ fun, creative varieties to try! It’s a unique and tasty experience, well worth checking out in the Strip District of downtown Pittsburgh. The only downside is the tourist-heavy crowd, which can make staff a bit short at times, but overall, it was a great visit!

This was $10 well spent! We ordered 6 donuts and a bottle of water. I didn't realize at first that these weren't pre-made. You tell them what flavor(s) you want, and they make them to order. It's such a great little spot to pop into for delicious custom cake donuts. There is seating and restrooms upstairs.

I stumbled upon this little cute donut shop as I was exploring the area, and I'm glad I decided to try their little donuts! Very friendly staff, and there are lots of different varieties of toppings to add to your donuts. The donuts are made fresh, and they were very delicious! Cute little shop as well. Thank you!

Great donuts! Love the free samples of the cinnamon and sugar donuts they give out. Staff is friendly too. So many options it is hard to chose.

Welcomed addition to the Strip District. Peace. Love, and Little Donuts is a small bakery for small donuts. Customers walk in and construct a box from an array of options: fruity pebbles, Butterfinger, maple-bacon, Oreo, the creativity and combinations are almost endless. The case of Donuts start from ordinary with simple frostings (chocolate, vanilla, caramel) and expand in price, becoming more lavish and gourmet. Recommend for anyone wanting to quell their sweet tooth or bring kids here.

I wish I would have completed more research before placing an online order. I was anticipating typical size donuts, and didn’t realize they were slightly bigger than a Tim Bitt! My husband really enjoyed the banana split. We also tried the dirt, Oreo cheesecake, and cookie dough. They were good, but overall I didn’t feel they were worth the price.

Pretty solid spot for donuts. They have many of the classic donuts in their little format, but I decided if I was to order from this place, I wanted to try their interesting varieties, the funkadelic donuts. I tried so many different flavors, so I’ll just give a brief overview of each of them. Cherry pie - very nice and a classic. The cherries are super sweet and the donut itself is well made, balanced, but probably too sweet for many. Boston cream - another classic. Well made but I would have liked some more cream. Cookie dough - ordered this one but I don’t think I received it. Robert brûlée - one of my favorite ones. Great cream, and a nice sugary topping. Also one of the more unique and interesting ones. Strawberries and cream - nice one. I like coating on top. Not any real strawberries on this one though. Cherry cheesecake - similar to cherry pie in flavor, a slightly different almost graham cracker coating. Caramel macchiato - not a ton of caramel and almost no coffee at all, but some chocolate pieces on top. S’mores - my least favorite one. Artificial tasting chocolate, almost like Hershey syrup but lower quality. Not much flavor. Coffee and cream - similar low quality tasting chocolate with it. Not much of a coffee flavor. M and M - quite good. A nice crunch on the donut and plenty of M and Ms. The donuts themselves are obviously small. You can finish them in two or three bites. Price is a little high as well. Their outside has a nice little crunch but the inside can be pretty dry. All in all, an okay donut shop. Kind of gimmicky, but still, decent. I probably would t seek it out but some of their donuts are definitely better than others.

My favorite donuts in Pittsburgh. Best served warm but they aren't always that way. Maybe I love them since they are little and I can try so many flavors. Fruity pebbles is my favorite by far but you've gotta visit to see what your favorite would be Good vibes little shop in the strip district with some upstairs seating

Mini donuts have always been one of my favorites. Peace, Love, and Little Donuts did not let us down. The donuts are hand-dipped right in front of you in packs of 6 or 12. There must be close to 100 options from which to mix and match. The flavors were excellent, and I still can't get over how quickly they dipped them. A six-pack was more than enough for the four of us. This is now a must-stop for us when we are in Pittsburgh. The location is small, but upstairs, there is a really nice place to sit and eat your donuts. Note that the stairs are really steep and narrow if you have any mobility issues. The staff was friendly and worked fast. While there was a line of maybe eight people, it moved quickly. Well worth the stop.

Saw a line of people standing outside of the business. The bestie wanted to see what the hype was about. We grabbed a bite to eat at the Asian Food Hall then hopped across the street. By then there was no line... because it was 10 minutes till closing! Standing in line would've probably helped us as there were so many choices! The donuts are pre-made and you select the toppings and they dress the donuts right in front of you. These small bite-sized pieces are just right to quell that sweet tooth.

Our favorite donuts no matter what. We love the smaller size and variety. I recommend getting the catering package for an event- we have done this for multiple birthdays, etc and it is always a hit and a good value.

First timer, here. Small donuts--such a grand marketing scheme. Of course, I would want a dozen of the lil buggers and less guilt seeking to eat only one, but, being so small, why not 2 or 3 at a time? Haha! And, to boot, staff slathers on all the special toppings in front of you as you order. I ordered a dozen and requested them to pick toppings as they saw fit, each being different. I was pleased, very pleased. I took two days to eat them all. What restraint I showed!

Isn't this the cutest little name? I typically am not a fan of sweet things but their small bites were perfect for me! Order, pay, grab and go! So quick and easy. Unlike other donut shops that are made-to-order, their menus are incredibly easy to read and VERY visible, including their samples up front which helps remove any at-the-counter ordering anxiety.

We ordered through Uber eats on a travel day, our kids loved them, the order arrived quickly and each flavor was delicious

I have been eating donuts since i was able to chew food, and had them in Asia, Europe and the US. Never stumbled upon a store like this. Hands down best experience ever. There staff, WOW. Very kind and sweet, and fast making the donuts as you choose them. Like WHATTT!! (Yes, they ll grab a cute tiny yummy donut and put more yummy stuff on it in front of you, with so much efficiency) Super clean, and good vibes all around. Even the birds outside were happy to have some small pieces. (Pic attached)

You know a place is good if you Google how to buy a franchise after trying it. True story. The donuts are the perfect size. Staff load them with the recipe toppings as you order. And they do bring peace and love unless your spouse eats the flavor you ordered. Anyway. The two coffee flavors (mocha and coffee & cream) were not as strongly coffee flavored as we expected, making them a bit bland. The fruit flavors were incredible. Worth the stop!

fun place you get to build your own donuts basically and they make them right in front of you. They came out warm and delicious. They are mini so you can get a bunch. Strawberry frosted was definitely my favorite some of the extreme flavors were a little too much in my opinion less is more with these donuts. Overall very good

We love this place!! We've had it all over, from Ohio to Florida, and it's al ate the most delicious, fresh little donuts! They truly have every flavor ever, it's so hard to choose!! But they are perfect size and so tasty! We did the build your own half dozen and every one of them was amazing. The strawberry cheesecake and s'mores were some of our favorites. I also had the blueberry lemon in the past, and that might be my favorite of all time. The store is so groovy and decorated so fun, and the staff members were so friendly. We had a great time, this is the perfect spot for a sweet treat!

so yum!! Perfect treat while shopping around the strip district. The storefront is small but there are a couple tables outside to sit at. The staff is so friendly and quick at making the gourmet donuts right in front of you. So many different flavors to choose from and so reasonably priced.

Love the aesthetic of this place -- it's very colorful inside and the decor and art is super groovy. They also have really cute merch! The donuts have really funky names and are decorated really nicely. The donuts are pretty pricey for the size, but I guess you're also paying for the aesthetic. The donuts themselves weren't super memorable to be honest, but they looked so pretty, so a box of these would be a good gift tbh! Would definitely impress whoever you're giving them to. Workers are really friendly and patient. Worth a visit if you're in the strip district!

The person who greeted us was very nice and helpful. There is more variety at Peace Love and Little donuts than any other donut place I can think of. The prices are awesome! They offer a discount for military members. (I always try to frequent these establishments.) If you come to Pittsburgh you need to visit P.L.L. donuts.

A small donut store. Staff was friendly, and it was a neat experience. It was my 1st time there. The donuts taste pretty good! I appreciated them giving us a free sugar donut to taste. That way we could see if we liked their donut. They offer it as soon as you walk in the door. I will definitely be going back.

this place was adorable i loved it!! I don't even really like donuts, but im definitely planning on coming back here. I really liked how all the donuts were mini, so you could definitely try a bunch of different flavors if you wanted. They have SO many options too and the prices are really cheap! It was just so cute and im really excited to go back and try some more flavors.

Best donuts in the city hands down I love them ALL great customer service and great vibe

Yummy, adorable, unique and fresh!!!!!! This is the place you go to on your fat day and it's worth EVERY BITE!!!!

OMG ! SOOOOOO many options of delicious donuts! They are made fresh in-house, and the servers are so kind and patient (because it's tough trying to choose your dozen!) very small place so please don't come thinking it's a huge spot, but the size doesn't matter I'd definitely workout extra hard just for these mini donuts!

This is definitely a go to donut shop. The toppings are so yummy and the flavor combinations are addicting. It was challenging to have just one. You can order online and they have tons of options, but you have to get the "buttafinga" it's one of my favorites! The shop is small with some seating inside and fast service.

A great place and a great concept that started in 2009 here in Pittsburgh and is also in many other states. The donuts are perfectly sized for people who don't want to have so many calories, but want to burst of flavor and to be able to choose their own, according to their taste. The donuts are soft but supple and not pasty so they are just right and not full of oil like the processed donuts at major chains. They make the donuts fresh and they make your specific choices on the spot for you live such as if you bought the blueberry icing they would put the icing on top of the donut for you while you wait. I love the peace and love concept and what it promotes to all people. Why can't we all get along and love each other? Love is all there is and all we need.

I'm not exactly a huge sweets fan but this little donut shop was super cute. They of merch and adorable little donuts. Definitely very sweet and rich but super tasty!! Definitely recommend!

Ok ok - come here. Best donuts in Pittsburgh. They are the perfect little size because you only want a bite or two and then you can try twelve! So many choices. They make them right in front of you and the service is amazing. I walked in 5 min before close and Timothy greeted me all happy and it wasn't a prob. He helped so much and was very genuine. They even have Dog Donuts! Such a fun experience, and the ambiance is so kitschy and fun. Definitely will be my go to donut shop!

The girl behind the counter was so sweet. She gave us 4-5 cinnamon sugar donuts for free and I bought the heath bar donut which she topped fresh compared to pulling it out behind the counter. Perfect little treat!

I remember going to the one in Murrysville. I think it is merely the idea of mini, flavorful donuts and that's that. Truth be told, that's all I see. I love the vibe it has but that is the extent of it. I was not [as] impressed with the taste of the donuts. I think I just wanted smaller decorated donuts for the aestetic more than anything else; hence the 4 of 5.

Saturday midday we took a tour of the Strip and hit a couple of different pizza spots. We ended up stopping her for a small dessert on our way back to the hotel. A grab n go spot - seating is going to be limited to outside across the street in the strip shopping paddock area. The price point is very good for the donuts size - which is about the circumference of a can of soda. I went with the lemon blueberry, chocolate chip, and cherry cheesecake. The lemon blueberry was the best out of the three, though the chocolate chip was a close second. Plenty of choices and flavors here - and again with the price. - you can get a good sampling without hurting your wallet. Service was fine, they keep people moving thru at a good clip.

I am in love with Peace Love and Little Donuts. There were so many different flavors and I can't wait to go back and try them all! The donuts were fresh, delicious, and made right in front of us. The staff were super friendly and helped us navigate all the different kinds of donuts. Not only were the donuts decorated, but the store was decorated was so cute, inside and out. Definitely recommend Peace Love and Little Donuts for a sweet treat!

such a cute little spot, my sister and i came here for a small sweat treat and we were greeted with free donuts. service was so nice and the donuts were good. i ordered an apple pie and she ordered a cinnamon sugar. you def need something to wash it down bc it was so sweet but the size made it perfect. no where to sit inside and it is small so you kind of just have to get in and out.

peace love n little donuts is absolutely delectable oh my goddddd. i was worried that this place would be kind of gimmicky but it absolutely wasnt and i wish i lived closer so i could visit all the time. first off we got two free cinnamon sugar donuts with our order which left an amazing first impression (and those donuts were soo good too omg). for our main order, we got a blueberry pancake donut and a coffee cream donut. the blueberry pancake donut tasted JUST like a blueberry pancake and even the smell was 1:1. i liked the coffee cream one a bit less but it was also delicious and was the perfect balance of sweetness. all the donuts are honestly the perfect size if you're looking for a little sweet treat. the interior is so cute too!!! on the second floor there's a window you can sit next to and i loved watching the cars go by from there. overall a 10/10 experience!

I went there at 3pm on a Sunday and they had so many different options. I tried 2 different flavors and they were amazing! They also have a nice patio to sit outside. The donuts are small so you can try different flavors.

Definitely a must go to spot while in Pittsburgh! I love donuts so I was excited to try these cute little donuts. Upon entering, they offered everyone a free warm cinnamon donut. Omg. So good. We tried the lemon bar, Elvis and butterfinger. They were all Amazing but the lemon bar was the favorite. They are all mini cake donuts (no raised) but I guarantee you'll find something you'll love!!

This place is amazing. You hop in line, take in allllll the options for donuts and the folks put the toppings on your donuts in front of you so they're extra fresh! The people working here and efficient and kind. They even gave our group free donuts to try! Of our group of four we each got three donuts and it was a lot. The flavors were on point and the donuts themselves were soft and perfect. They're pretty sweet even though they're small, so one or two donuts probably would have sufficed. Can't wait to go back and try more flavors!

Small joint but very tasty donuts and for a decent price. The owner was very helpful and friendly as it was our first visit.

Grey donuts. There was not one I did not like out of the dozen I got from them! I would love to come back and try more of the all diffrent type of donuts!

Fast, efficient service means you can get your donut fix pretty quickly despite the line. I'm usually sceptical of trendy donut spots, but these plain, cake doughnuts are actually really tasty by themselves. While you choose from the 30+ flavors in front of you, they'll invite you to enjoy a cinnamon sugar doughnut for free. We got a box of 6 different flavors--from simple fruit flavored frostings to more elaborate flavors like the sea salt pretzel--and they were all delicious, not too greasy, and freshly made. You can also order in advance if you want to pick up. There is seating inside and out, and street parking available out front. Of all the sweet treats near the Terminal building in the strip district, I recommend these!

Wow! Peace Love and Little Donuts is simply amazing. What a great concept! Please have patience when coming here- these little masterpieces are made to order! We had to get a dozen- because why not? The options were endless, unique, & delicious! We left with smiles on our faces and happy we were finally able to give them a try! There are multiple locations around Pittsburgh, but we stopped by the strip district shop.

Very rude and dirty. I ordered my donuts a moved up in line to pay where I was standing in garbage which was overflowing from the garbage next to the counter and was all over the floor! I mentioned it to the staff taking my payment and one shrugged her shoulders and the other glared at me and curtly said have a nice day. Needless to say I couldn't eat the donuts and threw them out after a few bites! Time for the health department to pay a visit!

Finally tried Peace Love and Little Donuts to checkout what all the hype is about. They have so many fun and interesting flavors to choose from. We ordered a half dozen variety. They dip the icing and create them right on the spot. We sat at the tables outside to eat them (there isn't any room indoors). I found the donuts to be surprisingly bland and the icing overly sweet. I was actually disappointed. They were $8 for a half dozen too and they are tiny. The staff was extremely friendly, pleasant and patient but I probably won't be coming back again. Honestly I would rather have Dunkin Donuts over this fancy donut.

I was there a while ago. I found the donuts in general to be fresh. I also found that they do have a good selection. They are a bit pricey though. The staff where friendly and helpful. I would not go back do to the owners terrible views on people. Sorry to say I can not recommend this establishment.

This donut shop is a fan favorite for a reason- they have so many cute and delicious donuts! I absolutely love the size of these donuts because you can try multiple without it being too much. There are tons of donut flavors to choose from too, my favorites are the caramel macchiato and the coffee cake! There's also a little bit of seating upstairs if you want to sit down and enjoy the delicious donuts! If you're a donut lover, you definitely need to check peace, love and little donuts out!

These donuts not only look good, but are absolutely delicious. They are a nice size perfect for one or even to share for two. Not too sweet, but definitely full of flavor. The shop itself has a great vibe and the employees are very friendly and happy. They even gave us the two sugar donuts as a sample! I can't wait to go back and try more of the flavors!

My favorite donut shop ever!!! Quality Tasty Fresh When I come back to Pitt, this will be my 1st stop.

This spot has the cutest mini donuts!! So many flavors, from the classics to unique flavors and toppings. They have fun names like snick jagger and peanut nutter. The Samoa and butterfinger were our favorites but you really can't go wrong with any of the flavors! This space is super tiny only about 4 or 5 people can fit at once. They make the donuts as you order them, so it can take a bit for people to complete their order with the indecisiveness.

There is a big sign out front with pictures of every donut they offer and it definitely caught our eye. We had to walk in and see what this place was about! It was insane all of the toppings and combinations they had but we opted to choose 6. I really liked that you can see what each donut combination is and then they will make it fresh for you. My favorite was the Oreo and peanut butter finga but trust me there is something for everyone.

This is such a cute hidden gem in the Strip district of Pittsburgh. We saw their sign on the corner down the street and decided to stop in. They serve speciality mini doughnuts. The toppings are added right in front of you to warm, fresh mini doughnuts. I got the chocolate chip cookie dough. It was warm with melting chocolate topped with chocolate cookie dough crumbles. It was so good we came back for a half dozen to take home to Florida with us! Service is super friendly and accommodating.

Quick, easy and kind staff. I liked all the many options. The lucky charm might've been my favorite that day. Cute little run shop and you're in and out.

What a fun change up on your normal donut shop! Such a good idea to do mini donuts, then you can try more flavors and not feel miserable because they are smaller. Tons of flavors too, that all sound good. I tried one of their holiday flavors, snickerdoodle, and maaaan was that good!! They make the donuts fresh, the frosting was still warm and there was some sort of cinnamon sugar coating on it that was just wonderful and I wish I would have gotten another one. The lady who helped us was also super friendly. This location is convenient as well because it's right on the corner of the Strip, a really well known part of Pittsburgh with tons of dinky stores and places to eat random foods and desserts. Great place!

Done on the spot. Great concept. The little donut is good. But basing it off my eval of "would I come back for this?", the answer is probably not. They're good but not great. And they are pricey.
