There's one young girl who works there and is SO RUDE. So rude. Never going back. I also forgot that this is a Nationwide CHAIN donut shop...so not guilt there for not supporting local. read more

Christys is the OG. Seriously.. I grew up in Montrose and I swear it looks exactly the same as it did back then. It's no-frills, staff are friendly and fast, and the taste is *chef's kiss.* Parking can be a PITA, but thankfully I'm close enough that I can walk. read more

Great kolaches and donuts and most of the staff is very nice with the exception of one younger woman who usually works on the weekends. Her attitude isn't very welcoming and I try to give people who wake up very early for these shifts the benefit of the doubt because I have also worked an extremely early baking shift but her attitude really isn't pleasant and she just looks absolutely annoyed with everything you say to her. Other than that great place! read more

Lived in this neighborhood for the last 15 years.. Never went in this place until a week ago.. I was impressed!!! Priced right!! The best Apple fritters !!! YUM!! read more

solid donut shop! small place, donuts are soft and light. reminds me of my childhood. closest i have had in houston. efficient staff too!

I've lived down the street from Christy's for over a year and finally made a visit. I'm wondering how i did not go here sooner!!! From the outside, it doesn't look like much - the staff there told me that they had been around for over 30 years in the same building! But don't let that stop you from trying the deliciousness that awaits inside!! I got a sausage and cheese kolache as well as a chocolate glazed donut. That plus a bottle of water was only $3!!! And they're not small bites. They were both very filling items. But then the best thing of all....THEY GIVE YOU FREE DONUT HOLES WITH OTHER DONUTS!! I opened up my donut bag and saw not 1, but 2 donut holes!!! Do you know how many times i think, i would love just a couple of donut holes?? But most places sell them by the dozen. It was true perfect thing to top off my breakfast. I'll definitely be making a trip back here on many more mornings! read more

Christy's Donuts - Donut and kolache display case - Donuts Near Me - Houston, Texas

BEST DONUTS EVER. I went at 5:15am this morning because I'm a freak and wanted warm donuts to soothe my soul during this pandemic. I ordered the glazed, chocolate frosted, cinnamon crumb, glazed old fashioned, apple fritter, and small coffee. My boyfriend got the cinnamon cake and sausage/cheese kolache. My absolute favorite was the chocolate frosted. Simple yet decadent. My second favorite were the complimentary donut holes the lady threw in. They had a light crisp from the glaze, yet melted in my mouth. I will be dreaming about Christy's Donuts until the next time I swing by. Thank you for making the drive worth it and for fulfilling-if not exceeding-my expectations! read more

Fast, pleasant service. Old school donut/coffee shop vibes. Food was f***ing amazing. Had a kolache, donut holes, chocolate long john, and chocolate donut. All super fresh and really good. Had a coffee as well which was hot and great. Best part is my total was ~$8. Montrose gem. read more

Popped in on a Wednesday morning at about 0700 and there were already happy patrons ordering and enjoying in the small seating area inside. Mom and Pop vibes with polite and friendly staff behind the counter (which I appreciate because it's getting harder and harder to find). Donuts were fresh and delicious! What more could you want? I'll be back soon! read more

Have been going here for years and even when they're busy, they staff enough employees to always be prompt. Their donuts and Kolaches are great and their prices are better than most. The ONLY challenge occasionally is the small parking lot. I moved further away last year and still drive over there plus now have them delivered via DoorDash! read more

Christy's Donuts - Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Houston, Texas

Simple at its best. All I want close to where I live is a small shop family owned donut shop that's cheap, delicious, and consistent. This place does the trick!! I'm not really a shipley's person. I always have believed smaller shops do donuts and kolaches way better and this place for sure does!! It's in Montrose close to all the central Houston activities so next time you're in the area for breakfast, try this place!! It's so delicious and a cheap breakfast option that reminds me of the family owned shop I went to growing up! read more

Best classic donuts in Houston! I got donut holes, a jelly filled and a cinnamon twist. Each one was light and fluffy on the inside and slightly crunchy and dense on the outside. Plus the staff was super nice! read more

Great old school donut shop. The best in my opinion. If you're an donut lover from back in the day like me you'll really appreciate the authentic style and taste of all their food. Without a doubt THE BEST Old Fashioned/Sour Cream donuts in the city bar none. I drive 25+ min to get on weekends. I hope they stay around forever! read more

I gave this place another shot because it's convenient for me to drop by when I want a kolache but of course I was disappointed again! If something says JUMBO on it, that's what you expect, and that's what the jumbo kolaches are lacking. The weenie to bread ratio is a joke. I could've sworn they were bigger but maybe I ordered the wrong kolache?? Either way if it says jumbo on something please make it so, so people at least get their money's worth. read more

This is my favorite go to spot for kolaches, donuts, and Yerba mates. Everyone that works there is kind, friendly, and helpful. The jumbo sausage kolache is amazing, buttery and soft breading with juicy jumbo sausage. The Boudin Kolache is one of the best I have had and I am not a huge fan of boudin. It's definitely a neighbor donut shop and has its nostalgia. I would go here before Shipley or Kolache shoppe. read more

Good stuff. My apple fritter was really hard. But maybe the next one will be softer nnn

Christy's is a weekend staple. We love the donuts but the breakfast croissants and kolaches are the stars of the show. They move fast with multiple people taking orders at the counter simultaneously. It's a no frills breakfast stop that specializes in to-go orders. read more

Jumbo sausage and cheese kolaches. Jalapeno sausage kolaches. Cheap. Delicious.

Doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's definitely the kind of place that has survived generations of gentrification in Montrose so you know it's good!! There's always a line out the door but it moves fast. My favorites are the jalapeño sausage and cheese kolache and the sausage egg and cheese kolache. I swear the sausage patty in the latter is the best seasoned sausage patty I've ever had - I don't even understand how it's so good, but it hits the spot every time. My boyfriend loves their donut selection, and I appreciate that they always give you a free donut hole with your donut. Really cheap and good prices and friendly staff! read more

5 Stars for old school donuts! 3 stars for breakfast sandwich options (the kraft-style cheese? Ugh just some cheap cheddar, please!) But i go here for the donuts and the insanely great prices! Christy's is a Montrose gem that I will always and forever keep coming back to! read more

I was looking for a place for kolaches for breakfast, and Yelp took me to Christy's. It's a small diner with a huge menu of yummy delights! The parking lot is very small, and full of cars when I went at 9 am on Saturday. Inside, they have a huge glass display of all of their doughnut creations. They have menus for breakfast sandwiches, kolaches, doughnuts, and drinks. You can buy each item a la cart, or save money by buying in half or full dozens. It was my first time at Christy's (and I'm a visitor to the area), and things got hectic while trying to order. The older ladies on staff got really impatient with my group and me, until a younger server stuck with us while we decided on what we wanted, which was a mix of kolaches and doughnuts. There are a lot of people in line and working behind the counter, so there's a lot going on at a fast pace, so try not to be indecisive. In the end, we ordered a dozen kolaches and half dozen doughnuts. The kolaches are okay; they're cheap but the bread is just regular bread. It's not exceptionally buttery or flakey, and the quality of stuffing varied among the kolaches. The ones that were good are really good! The ones that are meh, just skip them. The doughnuts are all really yummy! They are fluffy and not overly sweet. Go for any of the doughnuts you want. The kolaches: - Boudin - definitely the best. - Bacon, egg, and cheese - Good choice - Sausage, egg and cheese - Good choice - Jalapeno, sausage and cheese - Not much jalapeno in it, we weren't sure if it was the right kolache - Ham and cheese - Skip it! It's a slice of yellow cheese and one slice of ham Doughnuts - Apple fritter - HUGE, chunky, and delicious!! My favorite - Twists - soft and fluffy - Glazed dougnuts - not overly sweet and goes great with your morning coffee - We didn't order any, but we got some doughnut holes in our box. A nice surprise! Solid breakfast spot, but service could be better. I enjoyed what they offered at Christy's Doughnuts! read more

More donuts for a donut nut. I brought the Mrs along today. It's a good date day. Jr is away at daycare. Who can ever be upset at a donut? The donut would have to be really bad, cooked in bad oil and over done. Not today! 6 total donuts. Sugar, Apple fritter and a Strawberry Jelly for here. An Old fashion, chocolate covered yeast w/ sprinkles and a blueberry cake glazed to take home and share later. The jelly filled was really good. So was the fritter. After having been to so many donut shops, around the country....... Christy's was okay. Not really a gourmet donut place and that's okay. As for the way of donuts, they do the regular donut selection well. Will I return? Probably not. Just so many choices and this was a special trip from living outside of Houston. Good donuts. Just good. Not fair, not bad, Just good. A classic donut shop. Enjoy. read more

Christy, Christy, Christy Girl I outta kiss you in the mouth! I was finally able to sneak in there real quick with no line (Praise Be)! These Boudin Kolaches TOP TIER. I drive 20m to get my favorite Kolache and baby the best one was up the street. Shipley, Miss Krispy, and Dunkin couldn't hold a candle to these glazed donuts. You also don't have that thick grease taste. The options, the flavors, the customer service AMAZING. I always wondered if the line matched the food but I'm about to be on my way back up there to get my new regular order. read more

Christy's Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Houston, Texas

Pretty good. I've been to Christy's twice in the last month now. Some of their items are pretty good and some not so much. The parking is a bit crazy. The line can be incredibly long, last time it took me over 10 minutes to get to order. Some people came in, saw the line, and turned around. I do like their devil's food cake doughnuts. Their cake doughnuts will keep me coming back for more. There are plenty of different types of doughnuts to choose from, so that's always good. I picked up 3 dozen kolaches a week ago and asked for a variety. When I brought them to the all day meeting, I tried a few different ones throughout the day. I wasn't impressed with the huge cut up sausages inside the kolaches. Recently I went back because I needed a sugar fix to make it through the morning. I went ahead and tried two more kolaches and they were completely different. I thought these were pretty good. My confusion was that I don't know the difference between what I got before and the ones I got this time. I thought they were both sausage kolaches. As usual, the cake doughnuts were good. I think a long line will be a deterent for me in the future. I can't spend quite so long in the line. read more

Great donuts for a great price. The donuts were still warm at 11:30 am. We all had a good time there for brrakfast

Decent quick fix. Donuts are OK. I came here for kolaches and tried 2. The spicy sausage as pleasantly spicy. Overall though the kolache experience was very middle of the road. Nothing exceptional about either the filling options, sausage quality, or the dough. This is really cool to have as a neighborhood spot and I always enjoy seeing old school spots staying around, but the kolaches and donuts are just ok. read more

I only like getting donuts from Christy's! Best shop in town for donuts. I hope this place never goes of out business.
