Bobby Jo's Donut Palace

Reviews Summary

This donut shop is highly praised for its fresh, delicious donuts and kolaches, with many customers loving the boudin, jalapeño kolaches, and variety of pastries. Friendly, fast service and a family-owned atmosphere are frequently highlighted. Most reviews give 5-star ratings, citing great customer service and consistent quality. However, a few negative mentions include occasional cold food, lack of napkins, and donuts with an off-taste (possibly from cross-contamination with kolache ingredients). The drive-thru and convenient location add to its appeal. While overwhelmingly positive, some consistency issues are noted in food temperature and taste.

Customer Reviews

2x now, the doughnuts (particularly the ?clairs & the chocolate covered doughnuts) tasted of garlic. It seems as though they don't clean WELL the counters, bowls, and machines they use for making the kolaches BEFORE using them to make/process the doughnuts. This has happened to me the last 2x I bought doughnuts there. 2x over 6 months.

They always have delicious things! So much more than plain donuts. Always hot.

Good old fashioned donuts and kolache's and fast service!

One of the best donut shops I been in awhile. Very friendly, clean and expedient. Every donut looked delicious with other homemade donuts keeps comming out. Seemed very popular place. I bought a dozen and half of variety of donuts and they are amazing. Make sure you put in on your to do list, when your in the fairfield area, you would not regret it, one bit!!

Chocolate donuts are poisoned, I think don't eat them ??????.

Yum! I really enjoyed my glazed donut, donut holes, and coffee. The price is very reasonable too! My favorite part... the contact-less drive-thru window! SO convenient and safe! I love that I had this option for grabbing breakfast.

Incredibly friendly service and great products, even when he's the only one there and the morning rush is on! I stop almost daily for my daughters breakfast (and sometimes she takes it to lunch), and until she changed her order recently he'd already know what I wanted and have it ready by the time I reached the front of the line!

Interesting restaurant that has more to offer than we expected. Being here for the winter only, we've passed Bobby Jo's many times without stopping and finally decided to try it out. Extremely pleasant and helpful staff answered our questions about the kolaches (in Texas, they are pigs-in-a-blanket - different varieties, too) and boudin (pigs-in-a-blanket with rice and seasoned meat.) We ended up with a few kolaches and of course, a couple of donuts to sample what the name is all about. Tasty food and wonde

Donuts and all are great...you need to watch out for the hot cheese in the ham and cheese thing because he will microwave the shit out of them

I've been all over from the west coast to the midwest and this is the best donut shop I've ever found. None of those Krispy Kreme, Hurts Donut, Dunken Donuts etc.... even come close. You can taste the real yeast in the light but chewy bread. The apple fritters are single handedly going to give me diabetes and I'M HAPPY ABOUT IT. The old fashioned donuts are SO crispy on the outside and SO creamy on the inside... how do they even do that? It's like magic. And the kolaches....mercy.... the bread is sweet, lig

Have to go by here almost every morning. The owner, his children, and the lady that works up front/window are very welcoming!!! The service and food are excellent!!!!

Really enjoyed the boudin kolache, and the sausage cheese and jalape?o! Fast service and great staff! The glazed donuts were okay.
