    Crown Donut is the pinnacle of donut shops. This is a Family owned and operated hole in the wall with impeccable service and peak coffee & donut selection. Every time anyone steps foot into this shop, we are always greeted warmly and treated with respect. The folks here take my order with care and are patient when I try to decide which donuts I should get for the fam. The heart and soul in this shop is everything. They have gluten free donuts on the weekends which has become the highlight of my Saturday mornings (as someone with Celiac disease). As someone born and raised in Austin and a witness to how the city has changed drastically over the years, it fills my heart to see a classic family owned business like this still around. The included picture is from this past Xmas morning when I snuck out of the house to surprise everyone with donuts. Crown Donut was the only shop that was open and I've never had a better cup of coffee!

    Stopped here while on vacation and I kept going back, an amazing donut shop. I'm a kolache girl so I tried those first and they were amazing very yummy and delicious. I would say everything is a good price and customer service is awesome, the people that work there are so nice and make you feel welcomed!! Very cute little shop and nice chill spot for a quick breakfast. Will defiantly come back when I'm in Austin.

    What a find! I hadn't attempted to visit Crown Donut because there just isn't much inviting about the outside that I [mistakenly] assumed that they weren't very good. But I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered multiple things even though I was only ordering for 1. haha. There was a previous review that said they didn't have much variety...have you seen their menu? They have a ton of options! I got two different breakfast tacos and you can essentially order whatever combo you want. I also got the blueberry donut holes. The breakfast tacos were made to order with plenty of filling and nice and hot. The blueberry donuts were excellent. They also have kolaches and drinks etc. So many options. I wish they were open on the weekends because that is when I'm more likely to have time to stop here. Bonus is that they have a drive-thru! Overall I was happy with Crown Donut and will be back!

    Gluten Free donuts. Wow!!!

    Crown donuts was sold to new owners and they no longer offer gluten free donuts. So sad. We will miss this birthday tradition.

    This was our first and last time going to Crown donut. We got a variety of donuts, a kolache and other baked goods. First off, the variety was limited and they were out of several things we wanted to try. It was nearing 10am on a Sunday so I could forgive them for that if everything else went well. Unfortunately from stepping into this place, I wasn't too hopeful. Behind the counter felt incredibly dirty, faucet was dripping, stacked containers with dried food on the outside, not appetizing. I've been to some run down places with good donuts so I didn't just walk out. We got: - frosted donuts - the kids didn't eat them so I can't imagine they were any close to good since they will eat any donut. They look super doughy and we're rock hard. - donut holes - both blueberry cake and regular - dry, crusty, old tasting - apple fritter - for being basically $3, you would think this would be one of their best items. This thing was inedible, burnt, dense, oily, and so hard it crumbled apart. Something that is supposed to be moist was as dry as the Sahara. Kolache - it was okay, nothing special and even though they heated it up for me, it was warmed through. Cream filled chocolate donut - old Wanted to like it but we'll be going to our normal spot or trying other places.

    My husband and I came in today and the service was phenomenal, as was the food!…read more My husband got the Brisket Burrito... and it is life changing -- it is now a favorite and a pregnancy craving. Their fried chicken sandwich was audibly crisp with fresh tomato and lettuce that I made two meals out of. To end the perfect meal... my husband actually coordinated with staff to create "Gender Reveal" pancakes! I didn't realize what they were until I got to the yummy surprise! Their cream is delicious! The pancakes were soft and sweet! The experience, unforgettable. It brought happy tears to my eyes and we really appreciate the thought and care put into our day. We will DEFINITELY be repeat customers!

    My first experience here was amazing, which is why I was excited to come back for breakfast…read more Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. I ordered the migas, and the amount of onions in the dish was overwhelming--so much so that it felt like I had ordered a plate of onions rather than migas. The masa cakes were definitely the standout item and were absolutely delicious. However, the rest of the dish fell short. The sauce was extremely rich, making it difficult to enjoy or finish the meal. That said, the restaurant itself is adorable, and our waiter was fantastic. The service and atmosphere were both great. While this breakfast wasn't a hit for me, I'll still return and stick with favorites like the fried green tomatoes and taquito salad, which were excellent during my previous visit.

Their burger is easily one of the best I've had in Austin, especially paired with their thin, crispy fries. It's my go-to order almost every time. One thing I love is that they switch up the steak portion of the menu a few times a year, and it never disappoints. Right now they have the steak au poivre, which is incredible, although I'm still craving their steak frites and hoping it makes a comeback. The escargot and French onion soup are also favorites of mine. At this point, June's has become a staple in our house--usually with a couple of Diet Cokes and either the burger or whatever steak they're featuring. A few of my friends swear by the chicken sandwich (fair warning: it can get a little messy!), the half roasted chicken, and the tuna crudo, so you really can't go wrong no matter what you order. On top of the amazing food, the staff is always incredibly kind and welcoming, which keeps us coming back. I definitely recommend making a reservation since it tends to get pretty busy, especially during peak hours.

The Lox n' found croiffin comes with a toasted croissant roll, smoked salmon, ricotta, avocado, arugula, capers, pickled onions and dill. I added an egg for an additional charge of $2.

    The food is delicious, and the setting is unique, but the service is a bit slow…read more The restaurant is located in the lobby of the Scarbrough Building. It's a small space, with only around eight tables and a tiny kitchen behind the counter. It's a bit hard to locate from outside. There's no big sign on the window indicating the restaurant's name, just a plastic A-frame sign outside the building's doors. When I got there, four of the eight tables were empty but the dirty dishes had not yet been cleared. It took close to 10 minutes for the tables to be bused. Because the kitchen is so small, I'd recommend going up to the counter to order as soon as you get there. I believe you can also place your order online using the QR code on the table, but I didn't try that method. I ordered the lox n found, a toasted croissant roll with smoked salmon, avocado, dill ricotta, arugula, onion, and capers. The menu says it also comes with a side of roasted potatoes, but mine didn't come with that. The sandwich was delicious and filling, so I definitely didn't need them, but I do feel like I didn't get what I paid for.
