King&#x27;s Donuts

I have see this donut shop before but I never bothered stepping inside. I was with my dad and he…read moresaid he enjoys this donut shop (my dad loves pastries). So, I had to give it a try. Inside makes me felt like a Time Machine. It felt nostalgic and even the menu had those old school boards where you replace the letters individually. The prices were actually pretty cheap for a donut. I honestly cannot remember, because I was walking and looking around while my dad was purchasing them. Chocolate Old Fashion: This was crispy and crunchy, which is what I expect for a old fashion style donut. The chocolate glaze was delicious and not overtly rich. And I always enjoy breaking the "rings" of my donut and they came off easily and still maintained its crunchiness. Overall, this was a delicious donut. I truly enjoyed it and look forward to coming back again.

Just the right amount of yummy icing, the dough was really nice and solid, no greasy taste or aftertaste. The ham & cheese, OMG it's huge with at least 4-5 pieces of ham, plenty of cheese.

King's Donuts is the KING of donuts. I was waiting to post this review once I took some nice photos of my donut order but I literally cannot stop myself from inhaling them once I leave the store. Their yeast donuts are like sweet little clouds. The cake donuts are moist and dense. The old fashions have a nice crunchy crust and a soft interior. The croissants are buttery and flaky. The apple fritters are perfect. I could go on and on, but I hope you get the point. Even if I get there a little later and my faves are sold out, it doesn't matter because I know that whatever is left will be just as tasty. The only thing I would change is their payment system! The folks who work there are so nice but with their register, you can only tip them cash and I never carry cash anymore :( I hope they stay in business forever!!!!! read more

I brought my summer camp kids group here for the breakfast . Order one dozen donuts fresh and tasty. Kids love it customer service was really good. We I left I realized I don't have my debit card with me. I went back checked everywhere can't find it. I left my phone number with the lady at the counter . I was really nervous where my debit card went? Later checking every where in my car, I received a phone call from them stating they found my debit card by the garbage when the lady went outside to check. I was so happy and would like to give them good review and 5 star for their honesty and helping me. read more
