Somehow we booked a "healthy" Bed & Breakfast during our stay in Raleigh. They served plain Greek Yogurt with natural, local honey. Where's the damn pancakes?! After we packed up the Tesla, I was dizzy from hunger. We drove a few blocks and passed this beautiful Krispy Kreme with the sign on! I was dancing in the parking lot but walked in cool. (C'mon, I'm Bill S from New York) My sister in law? Lost it at the counter. "I want Hot Doughnuts, I see the sign lit so bring them to us asap" The poor kid behind the counter. It's early in the morning and our energy was at a 10. He goes to the conveyer belt and grabs two doughnuts, freshly made. I'm about to faint. That glazed doughnut, was so light and wonderfully sticky from the hot sugar glaze, did I just describe heaven? Of course, the worst coffee in the business. I didn't care, I bought a cup. Krispy Kreme? I love you man read more

Krispy Kreme - Hot off the rack! - Donuts Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Krispy Kreme is always a must-stop when we're traveling -- nothing beats a fresh donut treat. My go-to is the chocolate iced crème filled (perfection every time), and my husband went seasonal with the pumpkin and loved it. We stopped on a Saturday evening and it was incredibly busy. Also, they were out of the Harry Potter donuts and just stuck signs next to other donuts, which made ordering a bit of a guessing game. That said, once we got our donuts, they were as delicious as ever. A little chaotic, but always worth it. read more

Just a few words.. how are you out of every glazed donut but the filled ones. That's crazy

Kristy Kreme is a southern tradition for a reason. It is a North Carolina institution founded in the 1930's. It also makes the best melt-in-your-mouth donuts I have ever had. We always use the drive thru on a morning run for a fresh dozen of glazed donuts. We take our mugs of milk from home and then DIG IN at a local park. Drive thru can be very busy but the staff do a good job of moving things along. It is great to see the big classic sign out front and inside looks pretty old school. Hot& Fresh indeed! In the era of "foodies" and "artisanal" specialists, Kristy Kreme is a great example of a company keeping things simple and finding its sweet spot : ) read more

We had a good experience at this Krispy Kreme. It's the only one in Raleigh, which I found kind of surprising since North Carolina is Krispy Kreme's home state. There are five Krispy Kreme stores in the Triangle. I grew up close to the one in High Point: https://www.yelp.com/biz/krispy-kreme-high-point-2 At this location, we picked up an Assorted 3 Pack for $5.79 ($6.27 after tax). We got two Original Glazed Doughnuts and one Chocolate Iced Custard Filled Doughnut. As always, regardless of location (in my experience), the doughnuts were delicious. You can't go wrong with a classic Original Glazed, in my opinion. At the right temperature, they melt in your mouth. And they're yummy at room temp too. As for the Chocolate Iced Custard Filled Doughnut, I enjoyed it. I think I prefer the version with "Kreme" Filling because the Kreme has a lighter, fluffier consistency than the custard, but both are tasty. At the time of our visit, a dozen Original Glazed were priced at $14.49 ($1.21 each), Assorted $16.49 ($1.37 each), and Specialty $18.49 ($1.54 each). 3 Pack Original Glazed was $5.29. They also offered combos (doughnuts + coffee/milk) and individual drinks like coffees and iced lattes (machine-made, $4.49 each). We visited on a Saturday night around 8pm. The store was comfortably busy with dine-in, takeout, and drive-thru orders. It wasn't crowded. Our wait was very short. Service was fine. This is an old-school Krispy Kreme with a classic, retro look, inside and out. This location opened in 1970. It's in downtown Raleigh, on the border of the Historic Oakwood neighborhood, just one block east of William Peace University (I knew it as Peace College). Like other Krispy Kreme locations, this one has clear views of the doughnut production line. I always enjoy looking at it. They also had the traditional Krispy Kreme fold-up paper hats here. The drive-thru lane and parking lot wrap around the building. There's plenty of parking. read more

Ordered my grandkids our annual St. Patrick's day donuts last Saturday from Krispy Kreme, Person St location in Raleigh. Door Dash was to deliver but notified me after 15 minutes they were un available. I cancelled the order but noticed today it was charged to my card. I called and spoke to a nice young man who was very patient and took my information in order to refund my money. Thank you, Wesley! Excellent customer service! read more

I was told that is was the original one which is cool! And being able to watch them make the donuts is a unique touch! Getting the donuts fresh from the oven and hot, is better than Xmas and my birthday combined! read more

I drove to the Krispy Kreme in Raleigh as the Wake Forest location was drive thru only when I bought the donuts for Discount Tire. I was planning to go inside. when I arrived there were a bunch of cars parked so I took one of the empty spots as I was getting out of the car to walk around to the door the lady working the window let me know it was drive thru only. So I appreciated that she saved me a trip around to see the note on the door. So I wanted to try the new donuts and had a coupon so I got in the drive thru lane that wrapped around the building. It moved pretty quickly considering the number of cars ahead of me. Two vehicles did get out of the line at various points. I got the banana pudding; strawberries and Kreme and the key lime donut as well as some other favorites. Customer service was very friendly from the minute I got out of my car to the minute I left the drive thru. They were very patient as well as I forgot to say how many donuts I was ordering. I will come back here the next time I am craving donuts. read more

Staff is friendly and polite, store was clean and it's always good to have hot donuts

first thing you smell when you walk in is the smell of old, burnt oil.... not very appealing when you expect "fresh" doughnuts. You can tell the store is poorly ran, customers waiting in the lobby for an extended time. One cashier, they seem fairly young, probably their first job, running both lobby and drive thru. While the person in charge is in the back.. helping make doughnuts?... or whatever they were doing. The back room was filled with racks, which were filled with plenty of doughnuts. Yet, there were empty trays in the display. Guaranteed flies, tho! ... Lobby floor needed serious cleaning. Advertisement for items they were supposedly out of. I wouldn't recommend. Cashiers were very friendly! But the store is poorly ran. read more

We had a Uber order to pick up here. First off the doors were locked customers were having to help each other in. The floor was so sticky like they glazed it instead of a donut. They were so unorganized there read more

Visited the store 12/18 to pick up my online order. First went to the drive-thru to pick up my order and after waiting almost 5mins (no cars in front of me) a lady opens the door only to bark at me for using the drive thru and orders me to come inside. I do, and upon explaining multiple times to this jungle monkey what my order was, she proceeds to not honor the free Christmas donut promo with my purchase which was advertised on the app for the holiday. After arguing with this knuckle dragger some more, I realized it was futile and left the store as I did not wish to hold up the line behind me. Customer service- she should try it some time! Upon leaving and getting back in the car, I called the store to share my experience with management only to have them hang up on me cold turkey as soon as I went into detail. Will not be going to this location again FUCK THIS PLACE ZERO STARS read more

Be careful with the sneaky lady by the counter sneaking a hot glazed donut when you buy your order...she will also sneak in the price and sell it to you ‍. Such a shame that little petty things like that go on here but I guess someone has to nickel and dime customers. Won't be going here any longer and will make sure I post that this location is complete trash. read more

I haven't visited Krispy Kreme since relocating to Raleigh so I was in for a treat while driving through the Historical Oakwood section of downtown. My daughter insisted we pull over to get some donuts. The Drive Thru was already flooded when I pulled in and I had some time to think about my choices. There something about the thick sugar coated glaze on the original and Glazed raspberry filled donuts. My staples are the Raspberry filled and iced chocolate with rainbow sprinkles. The light was off so unfortunately I did not get to enjoy these babies warm. read more

Krispy Kreme - Donuts Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

I've always loved Krispy Kreme; I mean they're fantastic. I stopped by to ask about party favors and the manager was so friendly and helpful. He gave me a sample of the box and doughnuts for the favor. I love how you can watch the doughnuts being made fresh and they will grab the doughnuts directly from the line. Krispy Kreme doughnuts are yummy, gooey, and perfect in every way. I only indulge every once in a while for my health, but I wish I could eat them more often. read more

Friendly staff! The place gets busy quick when the light goes on ! IYKYK. My shock and dislike is for the price of a dozen donuts; IT IS RIDICULOUS! $15 dolllars for a dozen glazed ... come on. If I'm paying that much for a dozen donuts, I want the whole ass donut - give me the center hole back as well. read more

We stopped here purely because we drove by and noticed the old sign and there was a wait for dinner, and I'm glad we did. The strawberry sprinkles glazed donut was the perfect appetizer! So light and it had the perfect, glaze crunch. We also tried a regular glazed and chocolate frosted creme filled donut. As a Krispy Kreme newbie, I look forward to coming back. The staff were so nice and prompt too. read more

Krispy Kreme - Chocolate with custard feeling, one covered in glaze, and two halloween special... - Donuts Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Melt in your mouth! This location is by far the best. Original to Raleigh, they have a viewing area for you to see the hot donuts come fresh off of the press. Always smiles behind the counter ready to serve you. Run in quick or stay for a while. A KK donut will turn any bad day around. Have a KK donut adoree- they have a little area with merch and donut worthy gifts. Nostalgia will bring you back again. Fridays are chocolate donut Fridays and boy are they good! A box of hot KK donuts express your love for anyone! read more

Craving pumpkin spice for the season. I dropped in and got a dozen to share with others. These were as good as I remember. Pumpkin is always a hit in my home during Fall and the holiday season. The others were glaze and a few random assorted to make the dozen since that made better sense as a purchase. Well worth it. Delicious! The staff here are pleasant and patient even when it's on a busy Friday evening. read more

I love fresh hot donuts.... This is the place to go and see where the donuts are made. You actually get to see the donuts being fried and coming down the conveyor belt. The store has hats ready for the kids and you to take the wear and take home. It is an amazing experience for little people to watch. They people that work there are interactive and so kind and it was decorated with Valentines decorations. I will be back for treats for my family. read more

Krispy Kreme - Scan code fun - Donuts Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Stopped in for some donuts while we were out enjoying all of the holiday lights. The drive through was quite busy around 8 pm and there were still customers coming into the lobby. This location closed at 8 and I didn't realize it until I checked the hours after I was inside and was told that the dining room was closed. I looked at the time and it was 8:09 and the staff members were still serving the line that had accumulated inside. Hubs had already purchased donuts and we wanted to bring our little one inside to watch the donut operations for a few minutes and the staff graciously accommodated us. The donuts were delicious and I loved the festive creations including one with a Santa suit and a snowman. All employees were wearing masks as well as all of the customers except one. Overall, a great stop after seeing holiday lights. read more

Your typical sweet, melt in your mouth Krispy Kreme donuts! My favorite are the original glazed donuts that are way too easy to munch on. This location is nice since there is plenty of parking, indoor seating, and the employees are efficient. Plus the donuts are reasonably priced and you can watch them being made. They are definitely the best when they are fresh, but are still good the same day. They do lose quality by the next day, however, if you warm them they are better. Krispy Kreme is still offering a free original glazed donut if you shown your COVID vaccination card. read more

Krispy Kreme makes the absolute best doughnuts on this planet, and probably the universe. Their signature glazed are hot, creamy, fluffy-soft sweet nirvana, and when you add a chocolate glaze, crunchy sprinkles or any of the other too-wondrous-to-adjectize flavors, you know how heaven tastes. Kiss your diet goodbye, because you won't be able to stop at just one. The staff is wonderful to deal with, and will get you loaded up and on your way fast so they can continue their dedication to churning out fresh holeyness. This chain prides itself on community service, and offers its fundraising programs to area organizations as well as donating time and money themselves, so there's another reason to get your sweet treats here! Don't just take my word for it. These tasty treats need tummy homes, and it's a sin to drive past when the Hot Light is on! read more

I placed an order online on a Tuesday for pick on Friday morning at 8am. I get to the location at 8am, tell the cashier my name, they pull the ticket and then making my order. What is the point of ordering ahead if I have to stand there and wait for you to make the order??? They had to brew 4 boxes of coffee and put together 4 dozen donuts. The younger cashier (tall, slim, black hair, light skin women of color), who seemed like she was in charge, was rude and unprofessional. She made the last of my order and then just the items on a table, walked away and started taking other customer orders. After a few minutes, I asked the other cashier if that was my order, she asked the rude girl and the rude girl said yes. Smh. The customer service is terrible. The seemed short staffed. Another customer was picking up an order and they couldn't even find her ticket. I place a lot of orders for morning meetings, and this was my first time coming here. I won't make that mistake again. I will stick with Baker's Dozen or Daily Donut, where they appreciate the business. This location needs better customer service and people who want to work. read more

The ambiance was incredible. They were so kind to me and the line moved so fast. I love this place!! I love Krispy Kreme!

The dining area is constantly closed during advertised open hours. It's practically never open past 5 or 6 pm. This Krispy Kreme is in a residential area, and they force you to use the drive thru. It's so frustrating. I've seen many pedestrians walk away empty handed because they can't order without a vehicle. Terrible management. read more

Krispy Kreme - Donuts Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Love Krispy Kreme but this place has the least fresh Krispy Kreme I've ever tried in any state. It's so weird, you have to honestly try to have stale donuts at a Krispy Kreme since they can be made hot and fresh. I guess this location doesn't believe in that. When the lights on they don't give out free donuts either which I thought was part of the chain and whatever every other location in America does. Disappointing to say the least. read more

My cousin took me to Krispy Kreme because she had a coupon for buy 1 dozen and get the 2nd dozen free, LOL. She also made us wait until the hot donuts were being served and I wasn't mad about that wait. When we arrived, there were only a few parking spaces. I was happy to see that lighted sign "Hot Now." The staff were very friendly. It was a bit crowded in the store but it was fairly spacious. It was cool seeing how the donuts were being made right behind the cashiers. My greedy self had a hot donut as soon as it left the cashier's hand to my cousins and it didn't disappoint. It's very sweet and kind of melts in your mouth. Your hands get sticky but the mess is worth all that yumminess in your mouth. I can only drink iced cold water with these sweet (pre diabetic causing, lol) snacks. I was disappointed that I wasn't paying attention to the flavors my cousin picked out which where all original glazed. The next time I'm in town I want to try a variety of flavors. read more

This place is great. We love coming here. Packed when they have the hot doughnut sign on. This place is very busy tonight. But it's a place you can take your family and watch the doughnuts be made fresh. Even when the line is long it goes fast. They also do a lot of fund raising. read more

We love coming here at least once while we visit family. Courteous staff, fresh donuts, hot coffee. Great time

The doughnut conveyor is really the star of this show. I've brought out of towners who never fail to become entranced in the magical photo op of hot doughnuts being bathed in a hot slathering of gooey glaze. Even in the middle of the night the hot doughnut sign is the bat-signal of hungry sugar crazed stomaches everywhere. Come one, come all for the magic.of Krispy Kreme doughnuts! -1 star for the inconsistent customer service. read more

There are few things in life as good as a hot Krispy Kreme doughnut. Paired with a hot coffee or cold milk, the perfectly glazed pastry melts in your mouth when you bite it. I honestly maintain that it's one of the great culinary dessert experiences that one can have. On top of the taste and mouthfeel, it can be a visual experience if you go inside. The doughnut-making conveyor belt is downright captivating as it sends rows and rows of fresh rounds into a cascading wall of hot glaze. The end result is a sweet, simple doughnut that shines above many of the overwrought, pretentious artisan doughnuts that have become popular in recent years. This location has been around for a long time and the vintage neon sign outside is a testament to that. This place has survived the test of time. If the hot light is on, turn the car around at the nearest opportunity and get a fresh glazed doughnut. read more
