We had spent the morning on a walk on East Beach, and wanted to pick up some donuts as a late breakfast on our way back to the West End. They have a nice parking lot, which makes stopping here convenient. The selection was a little limited by the time we got there (nearing 11am on a Sunday), but we picked up a few donuts and some bottles of juice and chocolate milk. The cinnamon twist doughnut was delicious, and we especially liked the chocolate frosted with coconut doughnut. We definitely give this location a big, thumbs up! read more

Every donut place has a best of. Here, it's the cinnamon roll and the cinnamon twist. They actually layer the dough with tons of cinnamon before making them - just intense and delicious. Jalapeño sausage rolls were ok. We like our local better. The apple fritter was good (not as good as our favorite place in Alabama). We also got a cherry fritter, first we've ever had. It was tasty. We would definitely come here again. read more

Stopped by one morning because I saw they had breakfast tacos and I wanted to try a glazed cinnamon roll since I'd never had one before. When I was standing in line, I noticed the gentleman in front of me had already ordered and was standing there talking to the lady at the counter for awhile which was kind of off putting to me because the lady saw me standing there but they continued to talk. When I went to order the taco, I was told "oh no, the grill closes at 10am". It was a little after 11 when I went. Which that's fine, but how am I to know that when there's no sign or anything saying that the grill is closed at 10?.. anyway, the cinnamon roll is delicious. I would go back for that but I hope I have an overall better experience next time. read more

These friendly employees serve the best warm apple fritters I had ever tasted! They're outstanding!!

Best kolache I ever had! Get the jumbo one! The jalapeno kolachebis just right! The line is out the door! Great friendly service! Great coffee! Do-Nuts are excellent. I just wished for some brewed ice tea. Ok I just finished a cherry fritter and all I can say is wow! Then I had a strawberry filled donut and what flavor. You got to come here! Best donuts I have had, and I have over 60 years experience tasting donuts! read more

Donuts were alright, they are fluffy, the filling in one of them was a bit off, but still ok to eat. The only thing is, is that, we think they don't like nonlocal people. The lady that helped us seemed bothered to even help us, we asked for literally one of everything and she gave us a look and said, so your getting a dozen and we were thrown off, because we literally wanted to bring back one of everything for our family. Then someone she new came in and it flipped and you could tell she no longer wanted to help us. The ambiance itself is alright, smells good, but again, they need to highly work on their customer service for nonlocal people. We'll think twice about coming back on our next tour to explore for a beach house. read more

We're visiting from out of town and looking for a place for breakfast. This place was perfect for us! They had donuts of course which we got. I got some jelly filled cuz that's my favorite but usually they come standard with raspberry which I don't usually like but tolerate because- jelly donut! They had cherry or blueberry and another I think! Of course had to try all of them and yum!! Also had breakfast croissants that were very large and very good!! Would definitely go back here the next time we are in town! read more

After reading all the reviews of the donut shops on the island, this one seems to be one of the most popular. I have to admit this pink building stands out on the side of the road and has about a dozen or so parking spaces. Once inside, there's about Four tables to sit at and a display case filled with pastries. The folks behind the counter are quite personable and one reason this place is so popular is that their prices are surprisingly low. They do have cold drinks as well as coffee. If you want your pastry heated up, you'll have to use the microwave situated by the front window. The quality of their baked goods is very good, especially for the money which makes this place worth coming to. read more

The donuts were so good!! A little smaller than the avg shipley donut but worth it! The guy at the cashier was super nice! The ambiance is nice and quiet. I ended up grabbing like 10-12 donuts and the price was pretty good! Next time i pull up to Galveston ill definitely try and go again read more

We picked up donuts to go and ate them at a local cafe. The kids enjoyed them all. They are smaller than usual but perfect for kids because they always want more than two each. There are also sodas and drinks to buy. It's a small place with street and side parking. read more

Good donuts, customer service was trash. Will not be returning. Watch out for the short woman with colorful hair... she's got a real mouth on her. read more

Holy cow this place is not only very affordable but also really good and to top it off great customer service!!! The tonight's were fresh and soft. The service was so kind, the guy gave us some extra donut holes. It's pretty obvious this is a local favorite from the other customers here. Glad we stopped here on our way out of town!!! read more

We came in on a Thursday morning for a short and sweet stop. Their donuts are bright, happy and colorful. We love that there are savory as well as sweet options. Normally I have a salt tooth, but my favorite pastries here were the donuts. As someone who doesn't have a sweet tooth: I genuinely couldn't get ENOUGH of these. read more

FANTASTIC donuts and kolaches. Very fresh. Staff ALWAYS helpful. Easy in and out. Always a VERY SPECIAL treat. read more

Donut Palace is one of my favorite donut places on the island! You know, it has a local business vibe from the kind of service and great prices. What makes it a personal favorite is the wide variety of breakfast options (e.g., croissant/biscuit sandwiches, croissant kolaches - in addition to your classic kolaches and donuts.) On top of that, the food is always fresh, and they use REAL EGGS. How many places can you name do that??!?!? read more

I go there every morning before work. they are very friendly and professional and Ive never had a donut that was that good before. I highly recommend! read more

This place is ok but they didn't have a huge selection and their donuts didn't take as fresh as others I've had before. Their sausage kolaches tasted like they were frozen and out of a bag. It's not bad but it's not great either. Not sure I'll make a return visit. read more

Nice folks, good donuts and good kolaches. Easy in and out not much more to say back room was full with patrons

Great donuts and fast and efficient service. I went through the drive through. The only thing they didn't have was the watermelon smoothie that I tried to order. read more

Love this donut shop each donut is one dollar and they gave me free donuts I tipped them, of course, but I am a huge supporter of their business and their donuts are a 10 out of 10 read more

Very good food here. Had a sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit. Also, a boudin kolache. It was also great. So many great places to eat on this island. Eat local and enjoy the cuisine. Had another fantastic breakfast here this morning. I cannot day enough good things about this place. Clean, nice family, outstanding food! It's a must try folks!!! read more

best customer service ever! super fast, nice, and accommodating. my mom said and I quote "best kolache I've ever had in my life" and she's tried a lot of kolaches, so she would know. also, the fact that they're recently renovated makes it feel clean and fresh inside. 10/10!!! read more

Even in a busy holiday weekend, this place has great tasting kolaches and bagels! Also the service was FAST!

Come here to pick up breakfast! We got donuts, kolaches, as well as an egg and cheese croissant sandwich. The donuts were fantastic- the glazed donut was still warm. The croissant was delicious as well. The prices were super reasonable for everything. read more

Donuts were great, coffee was okay. Staff was nice and inviting. Cute little store with decent parking.

First off - I'm not a resident of Galveston and we were rapping up a weekend there. I walked in about 10am on Sunday morning. We had driven by the building the night before and I had a feeling this place would be good. I try to eat healthy as possible but about three times a year I start to hankering for a good donut - and boy was I rewarded! Just got a two simple plain glazed donuts - one for my wife and one for me. But these donuts were warm and so sweet and so soft and at least as tasty as a Krispe Kreme plain glazed donut which we all know are their best. Donut heaven! if you haven't tried them go for it. These Donut Palace donuts are great! read more

Bestest softest sweetest and delicious donut ever - no need for a Krispy Kreme around here- nope!!! The owner is as sweet as her donuts too! I've spent a lot of money here, prices are great for kolaches and apple fritters are just right, seriously hot doz - heck I'll be there to get a box this morning. read more

Great little small neighborhood donut shop, just like you'd expect. Kolaches (pigs in a blanket) and handful of donut selections, drinks in the cooler like milk, water cokes. read more

Found this amazing gem on our bike ride this morning. The donuts are so soft and fresh! My husband and I had the croissant breakfast sandwich and the croissant was probably the best I've ever tasted even throughout my travels through France! The staff are very friendly and helpful. This is a must stop in Galveston!! read more

A lovely local business with very kind and helpful staff. They obviously really love working here and giving customers a great experience. The donuts themselves are standard. They taste good, like a donut does. read more

When it comes to getting donuts, my choices are very simple. I start with glazed donuts, because if that's not satisfying enough, I probably won't be wowed by the other options. And I'm trying to find the best glazed donut ever! I tried the glazed donuts, sausage croissant and sausage biscuit. These were all okay and nothing really stood out or had me craving for more. I did enjoy how the glaze was not dripping everywhere, but I was looking for something more sweet and savory. For half a dozen glazed, one sausage croissant and one sausage biscuit my total was $10, not overpriced for the serving size. You do get your dollars worth. If i'm ever back in Galveston, I will try another donut shop before coming back to this one. There's nothing wrong, but definitely think there could be better donut shops out there. If I do come back to Donut Palace, I'll have to try some of the other yelpers recommendation. I came in around 11AM and was second in line, but started to notice a line forming right after me. I think if you're in the area and you need to satisfy your donut craving, this place will do just that. read more

Visiting from out of town and found this place based on great Yelp reviews. It did NOT disappoint. When you pull up and have trouble finding parking, there is a steady line going in and out and you have to wait in a very long line on a Sunday morning, you KNOW it's a good spot! Everything we got was delicious! A croissant sandwich, breakfast taco, and the donuts! SO good. The blueberry cake donut was amazing! So moist and fresh! The glazed crueler - so good. I would HIGHLY recommend! read more
