Customer Reviews

Town Donuts is a true hidden gem! If you're a donut lover, this place is like stepping into dessert heaven. Their donuts and pastries are seriously what dreams are made of?whatever secret they?ve got in their dough recipe is pure magic. Biting into one of their donuts is like biting into a fluffy, sweet cloud. I usually go for the Chocolate or Regular Twist, but let me tell you, if you catch their hot glazed donuts fresh out of the fryer, you?re in for a treat that will transport you to paradise. Honestly,

I recently visited a new donut spot, and let me tell you, it was a total game-changer! The donuts were absolutely delicious?imagine if Shipley?s and Krispy Kreme had a baby, and this is what you'd get. Soft, fluffy, and melt-in-your-mouth with the perfect amount of sweetness. Every bite was pure bliss. But it wasn?t just the donuts that impressed me. I also tried their bacon, egg, and cheese croissant, and it was fantastic! The croissant was perfectly flaky, and the filling was warm, savory, and satisfying

I'm at this place more than I should be. Their breakfast choices are awesome! The fudge on the donut holes is devine , and their spinach pie/Danish is really really good. My boss likes the croissants with meat of your choice with eggs and cheese ?? . They also have a drive thru but I find it to be quicker to go inside.

Very friendly, Fresh donuts all the time no matter when you go in and decently cheap.

Really great donuts breakfast sandwiches and burritos. This has become my fiance's go to to make the morning extra special. Definitely better than Mary Lee or Krispy Kreme. They're always very friendly, I'm back my fiance is on first name basis what's the owner. Would definitely recommend swinging by on your morning commute

It's good but definitely has a seemingly limited selection of donuts,as far as the quality goes it's probably on par with Mary Lee's (basic standard) the staff was very pleasant but it's seemingly just missing something.

This is my daughter's favorite donut stop ?? Great customer service and delicious donuts/kolachies. We stop here OFTEN and have a great experience every time.

The donuts are donuts. They taste good and my kid likes the donut holes.

Me and my bezties since i was 13 go there every chance we get they way better than mary lee and krispy anyday and twice on sunday its become our go to spot since we allin our 40's we doing what our parents use to do itsbecome our go to place go get you some excellent service

The BEST donuts you will ever eat!!! We love this place and go regularly. Never disappointed. Staff are quick and friendly. Their donuts will spoil you for any others. Seriously.

The best and lightest fluffy donut?s that i have ever ate. A 10

This place definitely lived up to the praise. I had a boudin kolache and it really good. Had an spinach feta that was delicious. Service was very good. In the lobby of an old Chase bank but that did not take away from it at all. Have drive thru as well as sit down options with AC and clean washrooms. I would recommand this Donuts shop as grab and go on your way to work. They open at 430 am.

Cute shop, good food, great service ??

This little donut shop is located in Central on Hooper Road very good place to go to Services always great food is always the best I pick up donuts there a lot bring them to work my coworkers always ask where did I get these amazing donuts that they're so good they're light and fluffy and they're not heavy on your stomach and they're very delicious I've also had several different other things there and the food is always wonderful thank you for your great service keep up the good work I will keep coming wit

I heard about the boudin kolache's when I first moved here, and I finally made it in! The boudin is delicious, flavorful, and not overly spiced! So many places now make it so spicy you can't enjoy it. They've nailed the mix here! The drive thru is always around the building and it's worth the wait! You can also go inside for counter service and there are some booths if you'd like to enjoy your food inside. The bakery is well maintained, clean and the staff is friendly. They also have a killer apple fri

They have a really good selection and everything is always good and fresh. It's a very popular place now with multiple locations. I think this one was the original. Anyway stop by.

This is the best donut shop in EBR! Their breakfast burritos are incredible loaded with meat and cheese and very moist. It goes without saying that the donuts are to die for. The service is fast with top notch, friendly customer service. On a weekend morning be prepared to get in a long line unless you are there at off times.

Best donuts in town. Always fresh. Everything else is very good. Every now and then I?ll get a stale biscuit or a biscuit with old tasting bacon. But for the price and convenience, they?ve got it. The only real negative I have is their drive thru. It is so slow, but I guess that?s what happens when everyone likes the food!

Well being from Texas I was looking for my favorite Shipley's Donuts which is a fixture in almost every town in Texas. But I was not disappointed at all. Got several different kinds of donuts and jalapeno and cheese kolache and it was great. My chocolate covered ???? was pretty awesome too. I will go back. Enjoy your donuts. ??

The hot glazed donuts or the best around not going to lie I have a small addiction to them

Hood doughnuts but you?d better get there early because they run out fast. I just wish they served some regular breakfast items besides a biscuit. Central has no other place for breakfast that I?m aware of.

Nice people, but they don't like to wear shoes??????

Best croissant sandwich....best apple fritter...always fresh...favorite BR office breakfast place. They ask me to stop in on the way to work to pickup their breakfast at least once a week.

Great food, amazing donuts, and exceptional service. The prices are outstanding too, My faves are the burritos and the boudin, This is our favorite breakfast cafe.
