Customer Reviews

Always love Shipley's and this is a good location. Quick in and out with large selection and has a drive thru. Easy access and this area has a couple of Shipley's around new location down the street from old Bingle location.

Came here around 830am on a Saturday morning. This location has a convenient drive through which is great. It is quick and easy to order. The only thing is you need to come prepared with your order! I grew up in SB and the shop used to be on Bingle. I miss the location being there. You could see them making the donuts and there were always the usuals there. Kolaches used to taste better, in my opinion and the donuts were definitely bigger! My favorite was the plain cake donut. It was just the right amount o

BEWARE of this location I got 2 glaze donuts and both had mold!! Had an upset stomach afterwards. So gross ?? better off going to Shipleys on Gessner

Was THE BEST SHIPLEY'S LOCATION EVER... Had to drop their rating. To often their twist aren't cooked by 6:30 am and an inconvenience. Their donut twist is of a higher caliber than any other location I been to. Their products are more authentic tasting than their commercially created counterparts. It's like they use more doe on their products to make them fluffier, more fulfilling and just heavenly!! Please go here and you won't be disappointed. Their staff is wonderful as well.

I went to the drive through on Sunday morning and waited 15 minutes in the line. That wasn?t an issue for me but when I got to the window I ordered a dozen donuts and the lady insisted on me getting down and going to the front counter to order. She made me park and go inside to order after I had waited 15 minutes in the drive though line. I didn?t want to get down that?s why I had originally gone on drive though but this lady gave me no option, she said that if I ordered in person I could see the donuts the

Shipley Do-Nuts is a fantastic spot for donut lovers, and my recent visit left me quite impressed. From the moment I walked in, the welcoming aroma of freshly made donuts filled the air. The variety on offer is one of Shipley?s standout features?whether you're craving a classic glazed, a filled donut, or even a kolache, there?s something for everyone. The glazed donuts are my personal favorite. They have the perfect balance of sweetness without being overpowering. They?re light, fluffy, and almost melt in

My dad has been going to this Shipley?s for a coffee and a doughnut almost every day for the last 5000 years. Or at least 30. Maybe more. The staff has been consistently amazing and he?s watched some of them grow up there. This place, not only supports. The community is respectful and kind to its patron, and always treats my dad like a rockstar. They noticed when he doesn?t come in and they ask how everything is going. it?s hard to find businesses like this anymore. Well done, Shipleys!

Great service, delicious donuts, and those kolaches are so good! ???? They have a couple of small tables to dine on and an actual half-and-half for your coffee instead of the powder junk. This was my first time visiting this Shipley and it won't be the last. Yum!

this was probably the worst experience i?ve had ordering from somewhere they got my order completely wrong the first time and the second time around they gave me a replacement for something that they were out of but hadn?t mentioned that to me when initially ordering. it shouldn?t take this many tries to get a correct order from a place that has very limited options. UPDATE: I would like to make an update and say although responding to my review this company did absolutely nothing. PLEASE go support a local

Even at 5 am when I go in there to get a couple of donuts. I ask if they are hot and fresh and they say yes when I get in my car and on the road they are very cold. I will go th the location on 43 rd instead of this location because there donuts are always hit and fresh the bingle location was better and they where hot and fresh when I asked not at lounge point location it seems service has just gotten very poor

Was told there were no doughnuts. At a donut place! Make it make sense. I don?t know if this location stops making donuts at a certain time or what but it was 3pm decided to stop by since I was craving Shipleys. I usually only go to the one on Ella where they are always hot and fresh but I was here so the lady attending the drive thru starts talking to me in Spanish. I am Latino but my Spanish isn?t that good and I say a lot of words wrong and did not know how to say glazed in Spanish so I asked for glazed

BEST KOLACHES EVER!!!, I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THIS SHIPLEYS SINCE I WAS YOUNGER BACK WHEN THEY WERE LOCATED OVER AT 1829 BINGLE RD <3 THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS JUST AMAZING! & THE LADIES ARE ALWAYS SO NICE!(= PLEASE DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS, SOME CUSTOMERS ARE AWFULLY RUDE AND UNPLEASANT(I'VE SEEN IT) THEY HAVE NO PATIENCE OR WHATSOVER. I'M SURE ANY ISSUE CAN BE SOLVED, DON'T BE RUDE ABOUT IT & WAKE UP EARLY!!! DON'T BLAME OTHERS FOR HAVING A BAD MORNING. THERE ARE SO MANY HARDWORKING PEO

I usually like this location but today I have decided not to return due to the lack of hit do-nuts Everytime no matter what even if you ask if they fresh. It's really not ever hot so I'm done with this location. It's nothing like the one on Ella and 34th st. Now they have good hot and fresh do-nuts no matter the time.

I have been coming to this Shipley?s since they opened it? but last time I came they gave me an expired chocolate milk and it had been ok expired for 2 weeks I don?t really understand how could this happen? I can?t really trust them nomore I got so scared me or My son could of ended in the hospital?? please make sure your food is up to date!!!

This is by far the most awkward and horrible location ever. Came by to this Bingle location and the donut shelves were almost empty. They didn't have a huge selection of donuts as other locations. Then they have these 2 guys making the kolaches where they can been seen through a glass window and they are not wearing gloves. They are rubbing their face wiping their hands on their aprons and touching things around there and that is just disgusting. So I guess on this day they had made to many sausage and che

Better than average Shipley's location. They were packed today and still managed to serve people will. Large window into the kitchen where you can watch them make the donuts. Neat place.

Shipley?s Do-Nuts is always a good spot to grab breakfast on the go! Sadly, this location is a pain to get into the limited parking lot. You never know if your food will be cold and hard or warm and freshly cooked. Even if the line reaches the door, workers quickly prepare the orders like clockwork. There is not a drive-thru at this location.

Ordered 2 dozen Kolaches Friday morning and 1 dozen donuts for office, the attendant was talking to a customer personal info waited almost 10 minutes to get served? She wasnt friendly at all and spent $40 and not even a than kyou Wow! I am going to stick with the Shipleys on Gessner . Not recommended or going back! Rude folks Nearly speak English Do these ladies have documentation to even work ?

Best Shipley?s out there! I have been coming here for 2 decades and majority of the workers are still there! You shows you the kind of company Shipley?s is, and how well they treat their employees. I hope they never fix up this shopping center, I love it! I also go to la plaza and use the mechanics!

The lady here is super rude, it's like she was running out of patience just because I was choosing what kind of donuts I wanted. They have good donuts and food but the customer service was horrible! If you want to save yourself from a bad customer service experience, don't go here. Bad bad customer service!!!!!

I stopped by this morning for a donut and cup of coffee. As usual the food/drink is good but at this location, the service was poor! I approached the counter and the lady just stared at me. I ordered.. she said nothing.. I handed the money, she returned change.. and said nothing. Pretty poor service!

New building on longpoint not good customer service on Ingles high prices won't come back They should have left it a hartz chicken We don't need anymore donut places or taquerias we need people to speak our language and please do it right no more mistakes ?? please I'm paying for your mistakes no English and they blurt all over your English or call someone else to wait on White people

This one has drive thru and seems to always take much longer than the location that closed down the street (Bingle). That one spot was always packed but quick. 15 mins been waiting in drive thru just for a coffee shop ????

This location gives out ice cold donuts in the morning so if you are ordering delivery expect to get frozen donuts ??

always good coffee and kolaches yum. New post the new location only has a couple of tables so you can't visit or enjoy hot coffee and warm kolaches anymore guess that's a sign of the times so sad.

Born and raised in Spring Branch and always visit when I come into town. Today was not a great experience. I had to repeat my order 3x?s to her. Not sure how anyone can get this order wrong. One dozen mixed, glazed and chocolate glazed only. She had the nerve to call me a PENDEJA when I turned to leave. Some white people know Spanish...... FIX YOUR EMPLOYEES!

The location is not very nice. The roof leaks and the place itself is shoddy...BUT they have the best Shipley kolaches around. Some Shipley's make their kolaches super doughy. They come out like big rectangle bricks but this place makes them more tapered and torpedo like. Much better dough to meat ratio. And sometimes there is a lady outside who sells tamales. Nothing better than rolling into work with kolaches and tamales.

This particular Shipley's is definitely one of the worst that we go to. The one on Gessner is always VERY accommodating, this one however, will give you the product that has been sitting there all morning. Even w hgv en asked for hot, fresh donuts the response will be, you'll have to wait 20 minutes. If it's taking them 20 minutes to cook a batch donuts of donuts, it's time to replace some employees. It's BEEN time to replace some counter people at thiz store. Ever hear the term 'GOOD customer servi

The donuts were good but they don't warm them for you. They do however offer the pink glaze which was delicious.

So happy this has opened up here IN the branch. Great quality as you expect, see habla espa?ol, and hope people keep it clean and alive.

Best Shipley's in Houston! Excellent customer service and they always treat you with a smile on their faces. Thank you Natalie!

This is definitely one of the best Shipley's Donuts in Houston Bingle location in Spring Branch always friendly and courteous open during this hurricane Harvey and just excellent

The jalape?o kolaches are very good,it's a very small place with 3 tables and a few chairs, the atmosphere is awesome the lady's that work there are very friendly staff and it's fun watching them make donuts with the machines and kolaches by hand .

Best Shipley Donuts in Houston! Parking lot is always full in the mornings. Great prices and always tasty!

Employees gossip around while the line is on hold

This was a good place to eat at and the donuts were good but 8/10 donuts... Kolache were 9/10 and I would come again

Kids can watch the donuts getting made. Fresh coffee. Ok kolaches - not great, but you go there for the donuts.

Love coming here. Friendly people. The food is all ways fresh. You most tray the old fashion cinnamon rolls

I like the convenience and friendliness of this location, but they have had too many health code violations. I realize I'm already eating unhealthy, but this is a bit much.

People were kind and efficient. You could tell by their attitude that they are all great workers. The food was also top notch.

Nice hot and fresh donuts My kids love them and so do I??

The donuts are good, but the lady with clear eyes,three times she wanted me to pay 10 dollars more than my account,and i asked her to give me the price,and a told her to give me the price of the donuts and kolaches,and my total was less , Three times she wanted me to pay more.

Life long Shipley's lover. I grew up on them. Great variety. Made on site.

As far as donuts go, this place gives you a great fresh donut (in the morning) and a good cup of coffee.

Quick, efficient service. Yummy food.

Location has moved to Longpoint Dr. and even has a drive through. Ignore the photos and street view on here, it?s the old location.
