The "Big Donut" is a store in Beach City that sells doughnuts and assorted food products and the place where Sadie and Lars work.
The Big Donut's roof is topped with a large doughnut sign covered in chocolate icing with pink and green sprinkles. The walls are a muted violet-brown, and the window canopies are a deep pink and brown striped pattern printed with "Big Donut" in front.
Interior
Goods can be purchased at a counter at the back of the store's front room; baked goods are stored under the counter. Vending machines, coolers, and product posters line the walls. Small tables are scattered around the shop.
Behind the store front through a hallway on the right is the storage room, where baked goods and other products are held. An employee break room with a small television and shipping boxes containing some food products, is located behind the central room.
A small parking lot with a few street lights is situated behind the building.
Logo
The company's logo is a doughnut resembling the letter "D" with a bite taken out of the side to resemble the letter "B". Employee t-shirts are printed with the logo.
Steven buys three doughnuts for the Crystal Gems, but since he goes back in time, he has 9. He pushes the Big Donut's doughnut sign from the roof onto the Electric Skulls, defeating them.
Steven buys Cookie Cats here before the store stops carrying them and takes the freezer, as Lion Lickers became more popular. Amethyst destroys the dumpster behind the Big Donut to which Lars exclaims "Again?!", implying that she has done this previously.
Steven and Connie go here for help to break Steven's magical bubble, only to be mocked by Lars as well as Sadie breaks a stool trying to pop the bubble.
Lars starts a fire in the Big Donut; fortunately Sadie prevents a disaster by using a fire extinguisher to put out the flames. Later Steven is seen in the Big Donut's break room, while he is a temporary store employee. It is mentioned that the Big Donut originally made their doughnuts in-store. Doughnuts are currently shipped to the store, following an undisclosed "accident."
Steven and Lion go to the Big Donut for breakfast one morning. Later, Steven and Sadie watch a tape from his mother Rose Quartz in the employee's room.
Steven and Garnet explore Garnet's foresight in at the Big Donut, and Lars almost accidentally spills coffee on Steven, before Garnet jumps in the way to get burned instead.
The store used to make their own doughnuts there, but now they just get them shipped to the store, due to "the accident" from the past.
Mr. Smiley sings in the Big Donut's employee training video, shown in "Joking Victim," however, it is noted that he was never actually a store employee.
The store name may be a reference to the "Colossal Donut" from The Simpsons.
The store's exterior design may be a reference to "Randy's Donuts": a chain of big donut drive-thrus originated in Los Angeles, California.
According to "Cat Fingers", it is revealed that doughnuts at the Big Donut cost $1.05 each.
The Big Donut is the Beach City building located closest to the Crystal Temple.
