About

Dale's Donut Shop in Benton has earned a passionate following from central Arkansas donut lovers who make the drive south from Little Rock for what many consider the best old-school donuts in the region. One TripAdvisor reviewer put it perfectly: 'I'm from NJ originally so Dunkin' and Krispy Kreme were my only experience... then I moved to Arkansas and realized the donut game was real life... the best of which, is Dale's.' The shop closes by 10:30 AM, creating the kind of scarcity that only adds to the allure. When they're gone, they're gone — and they're always gone by late morning. Dale's represents the best of Arkansas's small-town donut tradition.
