What happened to Shipley's donuts, it looks like he got a toothpick to spread my chocolate over my donut. Quality assurance does not exist here too bad. read more

Be wary of paying by credit card. They are going present you with a portable screen where you can leave a 15, 20, or 25% tip. There is an option to not leave a tip, but most people like myself in the moment will check one of the tip amounts out of charity I guess, or so we won't feel like a cheapskate. But either way, umm, why am I leaving a tip? For walking 7 steps, picking out a few donuts and kolaches? The service was pedestrian. The donuts were only marginally better than HEB. Kolaches were tiny, overpriced, and forgettable. And look at the sprinkles, or lack thereof. Businesses that do not offer services where tips are normally rendered, but still solicit tips in such an in your face way, is really frustrating. Anyone who has busted their butts waiting tables for tips will find this practice a bit shameful. It needs to stop. And I know, "just don't leave a tip and don't worry about it", I get that, but in general, this practice has to stop. If you've you've got a small order, it's no biggie, but on a larger order, when you've been guilted into larger tip, for reasons unclear, it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. read more

Oh my goodness!!! This is my favorite Shipley's Donuts! The doughnuts are yummy but their kolaches are my favorite! They are so fresh and delicious! They always have a few without cheese. I even requested a blueberry cake do-nut with strawberry frosting; and they accommodated me. The customer service here is spot on. Everyone has been friendly here on my multiple visits and I really appreciate the consistency of service and product. read more

Old donuts for sure. I am comparing it to all the other Shipley location and the original one in Houston. My donut was dry and hard. Go to another location. I am upset because I purchased 4 other different donuts and they look old too. read more

Shipley Do-Nuts - Dry old donut - Donuts Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Went through the drive through this morning because this shop is in my neighborhood. I asked for a glazed old fashioned donut. I have no clue what was given to me, some kind of cake donut. Definitely not what I wanted, didn't even remotely look like an old fashioned glazed donut. It tasted okay, not terrific or fantastic. The service at the drive through was pretty quick, so I did give this business 2 stars. read more

See all

I always enjoy a stop at Shipley's donuts. I think the donuts are the best in town. The taste is beyond the sugared flavored yeast bread you get from Krispy Kreme. When you bite into a Shipley's donut you get the fix you need for your sugar craving. A fix that is not imitated all day over and over again. Because, Shipley's is not like Krispy Kreme and make there donuts all day till 11pm. If they did you obviously would not get the great tasting product that you get from them. The donuts are great, but the real reason we stop here on our way to church are the sausage and ham kolaches. It's like a freshly hand made hot pocket, which makes a great snack morning or afternoon. Overall I gave 5 because I think they make a better donut then Krispy Kreme, and the kolaches rock. read more

Awesome donuts and kolache excellent service and friendly environment seating inside and self microwave

I've never had a bad experience at this Shipley. Always fresh & great friendly customer service.

This location is awful. Serving donuts that are obviously not fresh first thing in the morning. Day old (at least) kolaches with dead gnats on them. Now I see why there was no one in line. read more

Totally recommend great staff ,amazing service, and all around good donuts.The environment is also a great place to sit in with your family, although it is quite small, would fully recommend. read more

Great service and love the donuts. Always friendly. I was surprised to see a 3 star rating because they have always been amazing.

"Make life delicious!" That, they sure do! Especially since they are so close to home. Which I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing. Lol! Good because on days that I've run out of coffee to make at home I can easily make a quick run for a cup. Which I believe is reasonably priced and tastes great. Bad because on days that I've run out of coffee to make at home I can easily make a quick run for a cup... but also scoop up some donuts and/or kolaches! And they too are always delicious! Mmmm! Their location has great access to get on or off the highway. Their drive thru is convenient and fast. Their staff is smiling and friendly. I've yet to have a bad experience at this location so I can't wait until the next time I "forget" to buy coffee at Sam's or HEB. Hehe! Enjoy y'all! read more

Shipley Do-Nuts - Oh sooo delicious!! - Donuts Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Must have new owners. The service has gone down. The donuts do not have the same flavor and the Kolaches are a lot smaller and with even smaller sausages inside. read more

I go here a lot (lol) and so here are my personal pros and cons: Pros: * The staff is always extremely friendly :) conversation is always funny and inviting! * If there is a line, it seems to always move at a fast pace * They have a good range of different type of donuts and prices are good/normal * The blended coffee is a good size, tasty, and has a lot of flavors but, the price might be nice or hurtful to different consumers @ $3.50 * The location is nice with the entrance off the access road but with two exits to help you get out of the lot easily. Cons: * While the sausage in the kolache IS TASTY, the kolache could really stand to improve on only one thing -- SAUSAGE TO BREAD RATIO. The bread comes out about 1.5-2 inches further than the small sausage link and is very fluffy so, you're eating bread a whole lot more than anything else. It's a bummer because now I ONLY get donuts here and kolachies somewhere else so HOPEFULLY this review is read, considered, and entices them to come up with a better game plan because I don't want to go to two places for stuff for too long. I wonder if the sales in this area lacks compared to others because buyers are only making the mistake of buying the kolaches a handful of times or less. Semi, possible con: * The coffee could probably have more coffee IN it but, with all the flavor there might be a decent amount and I just can't tell all the time. I don't know if this would be a con but the next time I'll pay attention to how the coffee "kicks in" and update my review when I'm actually taking note on it! read more

Consistent and available. This chain of stores helps me to handle my DD-less town. This specific location has never disappointed me - the cake donuts are nice and warm with a perfect crusted outside. Perfect for dunking in coffee according to the hubster... I am a more traditionalist and enjoy mine with manners. Affordable - right around $10 for a dozen yummy treats! This location has easy access to the freeway, plenty of parking and a drive through. read more

My husband brought home donuts and kolaches today (it's Saturday morning) and they were all cold and very stale. I'll have to try a different location from now on. Just terrible. Absolutely no excuse. read more

Please be warned the Chinese lady working there is shady. I see the menu to think what i am going to order, because i hate getting to the window and not knowing what to get. I order an iced caramel coffee and she gives me something I've never seen, i remove the lid and it looks blended. I see her looking at me and i tell her she gave me something i didn't order and she tells me i ordered caramel and i said yes but i ordered an caramel iced coffee. She said i gave you a blended. I tell her again that is not what i ordered then she started saying she doesn't have caramel iced coffee (when the menu clearly states otherwise). I told her the menu shows there is caramel, then she mentioned they ran out and she only has mocha and vanilla. I tell her then you need to tell me that, can i have a vanilla. She said i don't have vanilla, at that point all i wanted was to leave. I told her mocha was fine and she opened the fridge served me from a store bought container and just poured ice. I can not believe she had the audacity to do that. She doesn't have customer service skills and she doesn't communicate with you. Oh and she also charged me $2.00 extra, because i had already paid for something i did not even order in the first place. I wont be coming back. read more

Shipley Do-Nuts - I cant believe i paid $5 for this, i could've bought the whole container at the grocery store. - Donuts Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Shipley's to San Antonians is what Dunkin Donuts is to Bostonians. They are the safe donut. You know what you are getting yourself into with the kolaches and the regular sugar donut. While I can heffer down about 12 Krispie Kremes, if anyone asks, I would rather go to Shipley's. I feel that the service there is far better and the donut quality is much more than any other place in San Antonio. Now since I am on a diet, I normally just pick off the leftover crumbs that the kids throw my way, but after a long race - Shipley's is one of the first places I think of to satisfy my craving of sugar, spice, and everything unhealthy. read more

Well I'll give 3 stars just to get my point across. I had to take my mom to work she had to be there at 5. I passed here on the way and decided to stop on the way back home. So I did and was very disappointed because they didn't have anything but iced donuts ready . My tip is this. Don't open at 5 if you can't have everything ready by 5... but the girl at the window was nice ‍ read more

All I have to say is.... the warm fresh glaze doughnuts are the best!! It's worth the diabetes you would get if you at a whole box!!!! Ijs

Donuts have their own style. Each one is different, each donut shop is different. Love the flavored icings here, cinnamon twist is killer. I'd recommend this place if you want that mom and pop taste and originality. read more

The glazed donuts weren't the best and there didn't appear to be a lot of variety of donut to choose from. Also, they ran out of glazed. What donut shop runs out of glazed at 0830 on a Saturday morning??? That may have been due to the fact that the cook was busy sexually harassing his high school co-worker. Not impressed read more

The filled donuts are not consistent. Some have lots of filling while others have less than a bite. Have tried several flavors over four visits and will now be taking our business elsewhere. read more

One thing you can count on at Shipley's is consistently good donuts and koloches. This spot is always good. The service both times I've been to this location has always been quick and positive attitudes from employees. Even though it was raining and I went through the drive thru, the two young girls worked quickly to get my order to me. There is no cover so when they open the window they get wet also. This is been my go to place on sayer mornings when in town visiting family. read more

I was shocked by how horrible the service was here. I pull up through the drive thru and I can here one employee yelling at another through the window. She had a horrible attitude and was being extremely rude to me. Then the doughnuts were less than appetizing. I can definitely say I will never go back there again. I would rather drive farther for better service and food. read more

The kolaches where Hot dogs in hot dog buns.... that was extremely disappointing coffee tasted like it was from bottom of the pot and burnt.... donuts were good but not what Shipley is known for. Very disappointed would never spend money there again. read more

Best doughnuts in San Antonio - hands down. As an all-around lover of anything doughnut, I've put away my fair share of fried dough. I grew up eating them from the Albertson's bakery and I've had more doughnuts from HEB than I care to think about. I'll admit I was super excited when Krispy Kreme came to down a few years back but I was a bit disappointed by their doughnuts. Don't get me wrong - their doughnuts are delicious. If you get them while they're still warm they practically melt in your mouth. But they're just too sweet for me. They're so sweet, in fact, that I can only eat one at a time. And even then I feel like I need a shot of insulin to make it through the day. My other problem with them is that they're made by a machine. There's something about an irregularly-shaped, obviously hand-made doughnut that appeals to me. Maybe it's that 'homemade' look that just appeals to me, I'm not sure. Shipley's gets my vote every time. Their doughnuts taste fresh, they're not overly sweet, and their dough has a deliciously evil amount of chewiness. I'm not sure about this but the staff appears to be related - the elderly woman who helps me at the counter is super sweet and reminds me of my late grandmother. This doesn't have a lot to do with their doughnuts, but the courtesy of their staff definitely makes an impact on my experience. So give them a shot, you won't regret it. I challenge you to find a better Cinnamon Twist in town. read more

My only issue with this place is the service. It takes too long to get people thru the drive-thru (which is the point of the drive thru) and they should really implement an order-taking system BEFORE the window. That way when people, with no common sense, place huge orders thru the drive-thru you're not just finding out about it and trying to prepare it at the window and making everyone else wait in excess of 30 minutes (and yes, this actually did happen). Also, stop letting your kids run the window. They don't listen well and they're part of the problem when we're talking about order speed and accuracy and they don't even look like they're the legal age to actually work. read more

Where else do you go for doughnuts in San Antonio.... GUESS WHAT? NO WHERE!!! Shipley is always on point, Always fresh to death and killin it in the doughnut game. Ive never had a bad exspirence. The only bad thing for ME is, due to the incredibly kind people at work we buy from Shipley 4 days a week.... which means I may need to curve my addiction a bit. read more

Past 3 times I visited (weeks/months apart) they always say they don't have anymore reg sausage kolaches. 3rd strike, went to different location and not gonna waste my time next time read more

I love me a Shipley donut. They have a wide variety of donuts. My favorite is the powder sugar. It's messy but I don't mind. Sugar raised a second favorite. We usually visit the location on Bitters as it is open late. This location is closer to us, clean and friendly staff. read more

It's a Shipley's. Good service and products. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Shipley donoughts is great. This location on the other hand, not so much! They sell burnt doughnuts without letting people know. It's worth driving a few more miles to get to a better location! read more

Great donut shop, beats all the rest. It is delicious, it has good customer service. This is a great place.

After reading the other reviews I can tell that whoever runs this Shipleys doesn't care. The girl that works the drive through is rude and unprofessional. After she asked what I wanted in a rude tone she turned her back to me as I ordered and scoffed when I asked for a coffee. I won't be going there until they remove her from a job she doesn't deserve. read more

Customer Service at this location is terrible. The girls that work here all look like they just rolled out of bed. It's unfortunate that this place is not better managed. read more

Closest Shipley to my house, but won't be back. Our last visit was using the drive-thru, first question I always ask regardless of location is: Do you have kolaches? No matter which flavor, they are great, and popular and usually run out. The girl said yes, so we ordered 2 ham and cheese, 2 sausage and cheese. When we got to the window, she corrected and said they were making sausage and cheese and it would be about 5 to 10 minutes. Love the kolaches, so worth the wait, I said okay. She directed me to park and it would be brought to the car. 15 minutes and at least 4 cars later, no acknowledgement. When I went in, the kids working were more focused on getting their chores done, wasn't acknowledge for at least 5 minutes! When one of the girls asked what I needed, I explained it had been at least 20 minutes that I had been waiting on 2 kolaches. She then asked the guy in the back how much longer? He said it would be another 15 minutes. Needless to say I was livid, one thing that gets to me is lack of communication between employees. The kicker was the girl at the counter didn't apologize but simply asked if I wanted my money back. Would recommend if they hire kids they need to train them on courtesy and communication, major disappointment. read more

I'm still trying to find the filling in the dozen of filled donuts I got there yesterday. One bite of filling in your filled donuts doesn't cut it. I hope I didn't pay extra for filled donuts. They donuts sucked. read more
