Krispy Kreme Doughnuts

Being pregnant and seeing people constantly post about donuts, today I finally got my fix.
If you’ve never been to Krispy Kreme you will find the donut making machine running and tons of glazed donuts being made. You are able to ask for a sample of a hot fresh donut if you haven’t tried any before.
The counter has a variety of donuts outside of the original glazed. You can get glazed chocolate cake, glazed blueberry, glazed sour cream, chocolate frosting glazed donut, some filled donuts and since today was Superbowl they had football and Valentines Day themed items.
A dozen of original glazed is about $ 7.69, while an assorted dozen is $ 8.69
My favorites are the chocolate cake which if you take it home and heat it up slightly it would be soft and yummy. Original glazed is best eaten hot, since it melts in your mouth and can disappear quickly with just a few bites. The chocolate frosting glazed, can be overly sweet if you are used to regular donut store chocolate frosting over a regular plain donut.
Overall yummy donuts, IF warm or hot. After it is cold it’s relative to the eater. Not something for everyday as diabetics should most likely stay away I’d worry it’s not going to help given the amount of sugar probably used. Also, if it’s eaten frequently I can guarantee your waistline will suffer and a trip to buy larger clothes will be in order.

On a chilly Saturday night, after an early dinner and a long stroll through the aisles of IKEA, one of my favorite stops on the way home is Krispy Kreme for a hot chocolate and a warm, fresh donut. On this particular evening, my boyfriend and I ordered our usual. As we attempted to pay, the entire computer system crashed. Immediately the young teenager running the register apologized and advised us to accept our donuts and drinks on the house!!! We felt so bad that we told her we’d check back after we finished our food to see if the registers were back up. She came and found us, handed us our receipt and advised that the charge had actually gone through. Hands down the absolute best customer service I have ever encountered!
It’s Krispy Kreme: the donuts are always the same which isn’t a bad thing.

Its Krispy Kreme so donuts were great BUT… floor in entry door was wet and they were throwing down napkins to dry it up and leaving them. Ordered a Iced Latte. Machine was broke. Then ordered a Lemonade and out of that too. Only reason getting 3 stars is cuz of donuts. One off of 35 & Metcalf is alot better location.

I drive past this Krispy Kreme twice a day, it’s between my home and work, but I usually only visit when it’s time to bring treats to staff or before driving to Nebraska to visit my nephews. My nephews absolutely love Krispy Kreme, I have had to train them to use appropriate social skills and actually greet me before asking where the donuts are upon my arrival. Interestingly enough, some staff members react the same way when they see boxes of donuts in the lounge. The drive thru makes swinging by and picking up a few boxes super convenient, though at times the line moves very slowly.

Awesome, although I’ve heard you might put on weight after eating these. I’ve lived in Boston and the donuts there are s***. But these are really tasty, especially if you get them fresh which might be sometime between 6 and 7 in the evening and other times during the day. Perfecto, I get some on my way back from the gym and it reverse all the gains that I made during the workout. But it’s cool, they taste awesome. Original Glazed please!

I hate writing bad reviews, and I usually give a place the benefit of the doubt first. But I’ve gone to this particular location for a few years, and it’s usually on Sunday morning before Church when there is usually one person (maybe two) ahead of me. There’s always one or two workers in the drive-​thru, one working the counter, and one who seems to be working in the back just putting boxes together or something meaningless. It is that person that always annoys me because he or she will see that there are several of us in line who haven’t been acknowledged, and the worker will continue performing the meaningless task.
It’s just painfully slow. There doesn’t seem to be any attempt on the part of the workers to get us through the line at a decent clip. I’ve tried the drive-​thru, and if it’s the guy who’s working, he will make me repeat my order two times AT LEAST. One time, I repeated my order four times. If I had to repeat it a fifth time, I was going to drive away. This Krispy Kreme has become more of a farce to me, in terms of the experience. And because there is no donut place on the way between my house and church, I’m stuck with this place. Bleh.
LOVE the original glazed in the mornings. Hate them when they’ve been sitting around. LOVE Bavarian Crème filled donuts — at Dunkin’ Donuts since they’re actually soft.

Always fresh donuts and the coffee is good for a chain.
In and out very quickly, recommended for those traveling in the area making sales calls in the morning.

This was the first Krispy Kreme I went to…
never really went krazy for the over-​glazed donuts. too sugary. but i liked how they would give you a fresh one.
i used to watch the doughnut-​making theater. (the story of krispy kreme is an interesting read, plus it’s been such a quick decline now since 2004 after a rapid rise in 2000)
nowadays, since you can get krispy kreme in almost every grocery store/​gas station, there is less need for their innovative storefront
