Shipley Do-Nuts

I've been coming to this store for the last 25 years.. and NOTHING COMPARES. I've been to dozens of other Shipley stores, and this one has by far been my favorite!

We did have a slight hicc-up this last visit, where the milk we got from the fridge in store was spoiled, but that's the first time something like that has EVER happened. The milk was not expired or opened in any way, so there was no way for the employees to know. We grabbed two right next to each other, and the 2nd one was just fine!

Donuts are always top notch, and the warm glazed.. are out of this world!

Stick to the classics, glazed. Delicious. As for the rest, I’m sure you’ve had better.

Couldn’t help myself but to take a bite out of the glazed before photographing.

Stop by this morning to grab a quick breakfast for my staff. I love their kolaches! Especially the jalapeño sausage ones! It’s so warm and tasty. It wasn’t really busy when I came in so I got to the counter and ordered right away. Very clean inside! Service was prompt and friendly. Very quick too! Half a dozen oof kolaches, a dozen of donuts and 2 donut holes later.. my staff was well fed and major food coma too! Best feeling :)

Shipley Do-Nuts is a Texas symbol. Go ahead and mention Krispy Kreme or Dunkin to Texans and they'll be quick to lay you know. . that's not a real donut lol. I love coming to Shipley when I come into town for two reasons:

1) their hot regular glazed donuts
2) THE KOLACHES

What I love about their donuts is that they are yeast donuts. According to their website, "The donut that started it all was a glazed yeast donut. This donut has a light interior with a slightly crispy outside and smothered in the traditional glaze or a variety of other toppings including icing, sprinkles, nuts, coconut, and cinnamon-sugar. When eating one of our yeast donuts, you can imagine the sensation of biting into a cloud."

The cloud aspect, is true. When biting into a Shipley donut, you question "what Krispy Kreme?".

Now the kolaches. To be honest, I never had one until I came to Texas. I didn't even know what one was until my boyfriend introduced them to me a couple years ago. Everyone I go, I get the same one. The jalapeño and cheese one. Amazing every time.

Our order when my boyfriend and I are together are the same.
- 3 glazed
- 3 kolaches
- 2 bottles of water
