    Sausage, Cheese and Jalapeño Kolache
    Anthony B.

    Located on the Northeast corner of Florida Blvd and Wooddale Blvd, I visited this Shipley's on Wednesday 11/1/23 at 6:40 AM. This was my first-time trying Shipley Do-Nuts and I was looking forward to trying the donuts and the Kolaches that so many people are talking about. The restaurant was very clean inside and out. The Service I waited at the front to place my order for about 8 minutes even though I was the only one in the lobby at the time. There were two employees that I could see (one working the drive thru and another employee doing prep (who also serves as the front counter person). As I stood there patiently, I was never acknowledged by the employee in the font. The drive thru employee finally acknowledged my presence and said, "we'll be right with you". Finally, when the front-end employee approached me to take my order, there was no good morning, no sorry for the wait, no smile, nothing, just a cold may I help you. She seemed like she didn't want to be at work, or she really don't like her job. I know it was early in the morning, but please acknowledge your customers as soon as they walk through the door and make them feel welcome and valued. The Food: I only ordered 1-Glazed Donut ($1.23) and 1-Sausage, Cheese and Jalapeno Kolache ($3.46) because this was my first visit and I wanted to try the food before going all out. The Glazed Donut was very small compared to the donuts from other local donut shops, but it was warm, well glazed, and it tasted very good. I would order donuts from this restaurant again. The Sausage, Cheese and Jalapeno Kolache was awful. According to the website, it's a "pillow soft dough baked full of cheese, sausage, and jalapeno". It was cold and it's too much bread (flavorless) and it's not stuffed with sausage, but with what seems to be a cheap tasting hot dog wiener. It did not have any or so little cheese that I could not taste or see the cheese and very little jalapenos for the size of this Kolache. I know it was early in the morning, but please acknowledge your customers as soon as they walk through the door and make them feel welcome and valued. Great customer service although it usually doesn't make up for the poor food quality, but it does leave the door open for an opportunity for a revisit to try something different on the menu. Poor customer service closed that door and makes a paying customer like me not wanting to patronize this location again. Shipley Do-Nuts 8121 Florida Blvd Baton Rouge, LA

    I have been wanting to try Shipleys but I haven't been in the area until today. The lady who serviced me in the drive thru was so nice and patient with all of my questions! This place reminds me of the donuts Dunkin had when it occupied this location. Except compared to Dunkin, I can come here at 1-2pm and they still have donuts left, so there's no need to rush in an attempt to get your favorite. Anytime I want something not too sweet and filling with great service, I'll definitely come to Shipleys

    Best kolachke in Louisiana. The bread is better, the cheese is better. They actually make something spicy when they say it's spicy.

    Hours aren't accurate, they close early/unexpectedly. Half the times I've visited they've been closed despite posted hours claiming open.

    Having thought I've eaten through most donut shops in BR, I was surprised to learn the existence of…read moreCrispy Donut, which has supposedly been around for the better part of the last two decades. Located along Highland Road just outside of the LSU campus, this Asian-owned biz has been hiding behind a popular Chevron gas. station. It's not much to look at from the outside, but fans of donuts and kolaches will be able to enjoy something here. The inside is quiet and has limited counter seating and goes heavy on the LSU decor. It feels like a cafe that is dated but still hasn't finished the renovation. I imagine the idea is to pump some gas and get a donut, which has a staple format for so many BR peeps. The menu will always elicit a double take from me, with its awkward placement of numbers and the fact the stickers are so large that they had to abbreviate kolache to "kolach" and jalapeño to jalap. What's not condensed is those prices, which show nearly $40 for a dozen boudin kolaches and $12-20 for a dozen donuts. The breakfast croissants are $44 for a dozen, which just feels very steep. If a donut maximizes the taste, then the value is sometimes justified. However, trying their glazed, sprinkled, cake, fritters, and chocolate donuts, I can't say they're exceptional. The jalapeño kolaches and boudin kolaches were solid, but I'm not likely to order them again. The fact they still have Yoohoo in the fridge, is a nostalgic throwback I can appreciate. The owner is a sweet Cambodian man and is welcoming for every customer. Any attempts to use a credit card will incur a 50 cent surcharge for any purchases less than $5. Parking is limited to the gas station spots, but it's never crowded enough in here to be an issue. Lastly, every pastry shop is guilty of this, but the mini flies stuck inside of the display case is a massive turn off. ___________ (#1) Thank you, Yelp app.

    Even though it was at the end of the day for them, they filled my donuts and cream and made me a…read moregood cup of coffee. I would stop in again.
