Try at Least Once
“Donuts were old and cold. Greasy and stale upon holding the darn donut.”

Sara's full firsthand review

Donuts were old and cold. Greasy and stale upon holding the darn donut. Although known to be 24 hrs, this location totally does not serve warm nor fresh donuts. Service was a little dismissive as well and the standard menu outside of the drive thru wasn't even there. Hopefully they can revamp their product as they are conveniently located right off the freeway. Nevermind if this location doesn't satisfy your sweet tooth as their is another location just 5 mins away. I mean if you've got a hankering to eat a donut at 8 pm, it should be chewable. In regards to a 24 hr location; the Shipleys on Westheimer normally serves up the best and freshest donut any time of day. See ya later. Maybe.

What we tried

Sara tried donut. The visit exposed several shortcomings in execution, service, or consistency that outweighed the positives.

The experience

Service felt friendly and attentive. Service or wait time was a drawback.

Who might enjoy it?

Dessert lovers.

Would we go again?

Probably not. The visit had enough drawbacks to make a return unlikely.
