    a display case filled with baked goods

    Coming from Houston, I've been a shipley's devotee, but I find the austin franchises' quality to be inconsistent. Enter Donut crown....one of the the best glazed donuts I've ever had. Their sausage kolache is also soft and fresh every time I've had it. Open at 5a daily, this place is tops here in Austin!

    Sausage and cheese kolache.

    Stopped in for a quick donut and kolache. Everything was tasty, fresh, and fairly priced. The service was fast and friendly, and we were able to sit down in the shop for our meal. Good ambiance, with the feeling of an old school donut shop. Would recommend!

    Loveeee this place.. small little mom pops donut shop that won't let you down.. Grey and fresh tasty donuts.. so many varieties to choose from chocolate, sugar glazed. I do recommend the donut hole that will melt in your mouth.. kolaches is a must try.. Great customer service and very nice girls that handled our order..

    Look at these beautiful donuts. It was a dozen but I had to down a couple .

    I visited this location this morning for donuts and what a great idea. The donuts were super fresh and customer service was awesome. I also bought a couple of Kolaches which also were delicious. This is my new weekend spot and I'm just right up the street from it.

    The donuts are good I will give them that, but the service is such a mess. The signage on the donuts is confusing, because there is a variety of items behind one sign for instance eclairs. One sign says Chocolate eclair, but there are two different kinds behind the sign. When you ask the girl that works there what is the difference, she is super snappy. "One is maple, obviously, simple." was the exact reply we got when we inquired about the difference. They have signs that just say old fashioned but 4 different kinds behind the sign. It appears they don't do well with signs because they had a simple piece of paper with the price that they just crossed it out and wrote over it instead of printing a new page out. I'm not sure this is the best business tactic since we can see the prices went out. The donuts are alright in my book, but the service has put me off from coming here again. I was not looking for a donuts and a side of attitude when I stopped in that morning.

    Lots of kolaches options

    This place rules. It's been a while since stepping into a crowded donut shop on a Saturday morning, but I revisited that this past Saturday and so happy I did. Like I mentioned, the tiny place was busy, but the kind moved fast as they had enough staff in ha d. Once he arrived to the beautiful, multi-colored array of donuts in in the display case, my little one was adamant a particular blue icing donut with sprinkles. The man was more than happy to oblige. It's like me understood exactly how important it was to make my toddler happy. He made my picky two year old was happy, so I was happy. But what struck me the most was that the place still had a solid selection somewhat later on a Saturday morn. They didn't run our after the early morning rush...or at least kept replenishing. We got a bag of donut holes for $1.25 and six donuts. What a great start to a Saturday morning!

    This is the best donut shop ever! 5 stars: bike parking Simple effective secure easy for multiple locking situations. It's a loop of steel bolted to the ground the way god intended. What's so difficult business ppl. This rack belongs to the shopping center. But happens to be in front of a couple of the best eateries in town.

    OMG!! Best donuts in Austin! A friend of mine told me these donuts are almost as good as Randy's Donuts in California. The donuts here will melt in your mouth. They will even make custom donuts for you. I had been looking for chocolate frosted with fresh coconut and now I have my supplier. Each time I visit I ask for a couple & they happily make them on the spot. What more can a donutholic ask for? They offer yeast, cake and old fashioned donuts as well as donut holes. If you are craving donuts, this is the place.

    Great selection of donuts. They're very patient with my children who take 5 minutes to choose which donut they like. Yummy yummy!

    So cute AND delicious! **Not pictured, the cheese danish I ate too fast to capture a photo of!**

    I really didn't want to like these donuts, because who needs a $9 donut, right? But I have to…read moreadmit, they far exceeded my expectations. Just to be clear, I AM somewhat of a subject matter expert. I have eaten all manner of fried dough creations from coast to coast, including Hawaii, and I have a lot to say on the topic. My favorite is still Cider Belly in Albany, NY, but I digress. The PB&J donut here is one of the best things I have ever eaten. I dragged it out for 3 days. Even semi-stale, and reheated in the microwave, it was still delicious. I put a scoop of Blue Bell vanilla ice cream on it which definitely helped. I also ordered a Heavenly Hash (one of my favorite ice cream flavors BTW) and a Naughty and Nice because I am all about the classics. They were both outstanding. No leftovers. I bought these donuts in lieu of birthday cake this year which may become my new tradition. Honestly, I think these are my new favorite donuts in Austin now.

    Doughnuts made to order out of an airstream, you say?…read more Looks like they used to offer mini versions but that side of the menu is all mask taped over. When we went our choices were $9-$10 donut base desserts. I say base because the toppings cover up the donut visually. Despite that, there's no covering that scrumptious taste and texture. Wowaweea. Yes, you feel your cells expand and pants tighten and it is for sure run club pre and post, but quite worth it. These divine donuts have that cakey interior I love so much. We had the Puddin': cream cheese icing, vanilla pudding, fresh bananas with nilla wafers. According to the menu. Ours didn't have any nilla wafers and the presentation was uneven, hence the four stars. I didn't miss the wafers. The icing and pudding were one goopy topping and the bananas slices were half scattered slices and half banana chunk that I had to separate. Side notes: Gourdough sits on a corner with parking spots that are not free. There's a pay via QR code so you'll need a phone or something to scan that. Boo for digital shackles. Next note- I feel like this is a low key meet up spot. Like the way they tried to make the first train cars on the MTA the singles car? There was a series of singles getting doughnuts and they were a little done up for the occasion. Who knows. With the little IG ready love seats and doughnuts made for sharing, you could walk away with extra sugar.

The audacity Story time, Today I went to the original Round Rock location, downtown Round Rock, to buy my son's birthday donuts, It's tradition. Every year on his birthday he gets a dozen half glazed and half chocolate frosted donuts. Then I get a kolache and a dozen donut holes for myself. Well when I pulled up today the line was wrapped around all the way to Mays street. So I just followed the line of cars and got in line. You'd think that a line that long would take a long time but.... Round Rock donuts has this process down to a T. It took less than 10 minutes to get through that line and get my order. And those donuts came out hot and fresh. So did my kolache. Anywho, Don't let the lines scare you away, Just jump in and know they're going to move quickly. Also, If you're planning an office event or any type of event and you want donuts and coffee or kolaches donuts and coffee, Round Rock donuts offers a great menu for large orders and also they have a cake menu for custom cake orders. If you don't want to stay in line in your car you can also park wherever you can find a spot and go to the walk-up ordering window, It's shaded and there's plenty of space to hang out while your order is being made and brought out to you. All this to say, It's a Round Rock Donut, Happy Birthday to my Son!

For years, I'd heard so much good about them; it was about time to sample their goods. Since it was a weekday and a bit later in the morning hours, the line wasn't too bad. Watching the vehicles flying through the drive-thru, I could see that these folks have it down to a science. Order after order is being handed to their customers with military precision. We got a cinnamon roll and a fritter for the road, plus 6 donuts to take back home with us. The fritter was OK, I've had better. My wife's cinnamon roll was too huge to manage. It was definitely Texas-sized. The six donuts we took home were two blueberry cake donuts, two regular raised donuts, and two filled. The filled donuts were our favorites, along with the cake and the traditional raised. We can now say we've been to the legendary Round Rock Donuts.

    Cool spot to check out in downtown Austin! The vibe hits you right when you walk in -- they've got…read morethis huge neon American flag that instantly sets the mood. Definitely a fun atmosphere. The donuts themselves were a bit of a letdown, though. Ours were a little stale -- now, in fairness, we did roll in later in the afternoon, so that might've played a part. But here's the thing: I'm a HUGE donut person. I can eat a donut basically any time of day, no matter how long it's been sitting out. So for them to fall a little flat, especially at the prices they're charging, I was expecting a bit more. That said, it was a nice place to sit and take a break while we were wandering around downtown. Would I make it a regular stop? Probably not -- but if you're on vacation and want to check it out for the experience, it's worth a peek.

Why am I going to one in Austin? Well, it's because I am a completeist and I try to go to as many Voodoo Doughnut locations as I can. Austin has two locations but Steve was only willing to tolerate going to one location so we went here. The doughnuts are going to be about the same as any other location however I did come across one that I haven't seen before. I am not sure if it was limited edition or what but I liked it. It was kind of take on a Black Forest Cake but it wasn't cherries that were on top of the doughnut and cream. It was more like blueberries. It was good and I am glad I tried it! I was really hoping to see the Ring of Fire Doughnut as it's my favorite but I didn't see it here. I got more of a powdered doughnut too as I do like their more basic doughnuts too. Steve got something that almost was like a Dubai-esque Chocolate Doughnut. It had pistachios on it and was a chocolate cake. That one was good too! Atmosphere is weird and quirky like all of their locations try to be which I can appreciate. So if you are addicted to Voodoo Doughnuts or have been wanting to try them but don't plan any PNW trips then definitely swing by the Texas locations. More and more locations are popping up all of the time!

Glad the choice was made for us -- the ube was perfect on its own. Also happy we skipped the toppings since the creaminess really came through. They sell mochi donuts too -- they were pretty good but not as good as the ice cream. Parking is limited but we had no issue snagging a spot at 430pm on a Sunday. Only a few narrow spots outside (no official lot). Full disclosure -- both my daughter and I had tummy aches after eating this ice cream and you know what? I have zero regrets! It was that good.
