    Staff are friendly and nice! Donuts, tacos and kolaches are delicious! I wish they have their salsa instead of the prepackaged salsa.

    We had to fuel our car up very early and this place was AMAZING. Hot coffee and greasy warm donuts right out of the oven. Very satisfying!!

    All these years I've been coming here enjoying all these kolaches, donut holes, and donuts and I…read morejust realized I had not written a review. 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!

Today I showed up about 6:20 am and bought 9 dozen glazed. Per habit, I opened a box before driving off, anticipating the melting in your mouth experience I treasure. But the donut I chomped was ... COLD. I checked my other boxes too--every donut cold. Shockingly, a store employee told me it's the bakery's practice to give chilled donuts to customers because that preserves them longer. That's not for me, I replied, and the store swapped out my coldies for delightfully warm replacements. I hope the employee was wrong about this cold donut "practice."

    Store #FC6305, 3250 E Palm Valley Blvd, Round Rock, TX…read more I placed an order on www.shipleydonuts.com for pick up. The order was ready when I arrived - which I thought was great. When I got home, I realized one of the items was wrong. I ordered an egg and cheese kolache. They gave me a sausage, egg and cheese kolache. The person this was for is a vegetarian and cannot eat sausage. This item been trashed, as no one else likes sausage I called the store (#FC6305). The first time I called, someone answered and hung up on me. The second time I called it rang and went to a voicemail that is not set up. The third time someone answered and they were very confused why I was calling. They could not comprehend that I was given the wrong item. I kept repeating the issue. Eventually, they told me that they only carry sausage, egg, and cheese kolaches - so that's what they gave me. It doesn't matter that I ordered egg and cheese. I complained that if they don't care this item, I shouldn't have been able to order it. And that they never told me at the store that they couldn't fulfill this item to give me another option at that time. It's inappropriate to charge someone for an item and give them something different - without their knowledge. This person did not care. This clearly wasn't a mistake; it's their business practice. The manager, An, blamed me for ordering through DoorDash. I told her several times that I ordered through their website. Then she blamed me for ordering online, because "the website has all items served at all stores. Not just our store." She repeated that only carry sausage, egg and cheese so that's what they gave me. She sees no issue with being given the wrong item, or that the person is vegetarian and can't eat it. She went to talk to someone else (a guy); I was expecting a solution. When she came back she said "what do you want?!?" as if she forget why I was on the phone. They refused to offer a refund or any solution. She told me to call someone else. I called corporate and the agent I spoke to filed a claim. She was yawning through the entire call. I've never experienced something like that... I gave her my contact info and when she repeated it back, it was incorrect. So, I don't expect to hear back from corporate. I wish this store had just told me that they didn't have the item that I ordered when I picked it up. This could have been resolved very easily. The kolache cost just $4. The fact that they do not care and don't see the problem with knowingly serving the wrong item is my real issue. The donuts are okay. Coffee was awful. With so many coffee shops and donut shops to choose from, I would recommend going to another place.

    Donuts or Doughnuts? However you spell it, they both equal to soft doughy and sweet goodness. A…read moretopic of doughnuts came up and our friends from Austin said, we MUST try Round Rock Donuts while here in the Austin area. Being a lover of sweetie goodness, I can't pass up that recommendation. We probably let our eyes do the ordering because we probably got more than we should have. Before I forget, I have to give a shout out to Karen who took our very complicated orders, but she was so nice and friendly, she stepped out to hand us our order and made sure to give each of us a hug and one photo for the gram or Yelp. Super sweet lady that has been with the company for a very long time. As for my take on the Donuts or Doughnuts, these are definitely doughnuts to me because the dough was very light and fluffy with a very subtle sweet glaze. Just like most doughnuts, you have to eat it fresh or they lose their softness, fluffiness and sweetness. Day old doughnuts just do not taste the same, and Round Rock Donuts also do-nut hold their freshness the next day. I argue that Krispy Kreme are the only donuts I have ever had that are still soft the day after. I'm sure there are those who will disagree with me. Since we got it fresh, I'll rate the glazed donut a 7/10. If given a box of fresh round rock donuts, I will not say no thank you, but Thank you very much.

    I love that there are now two locations to go to for Round Rock donuts. This new location is closer…read moreto my house. Easy to pull into the drive-thru and pull out once I am finished. The young lady that was outside taking orders (tall, slim, beautiful curly hair). She asked if we would like to try one of the summertime lemon cake donuts because I was distracted and did not see the sign sticking up in the drive-thru. Lemon cake is my favorite, so I couldn't turn down the upsell she asked me. I ordered 3 lemon cake donuts. The size is perfect. You can ask for the donut to not have the drizzled icing on top too because I find it just a little too sweet for my taste when the icing is on top. These are only seasonal and offered during summertime, which is the only negative thing I can say about it. Wish they were a new daily menu item. The (older, slim, blonde hair, blue eyes) who took our payment and handed us our order is the nicest and sweetest lady I have ever come across. I absolutely love being greeted by her when I come through the drive-thru.
