    A beautiful array of treats! We chose the spinach tart and the jalapeno cheese sausage kolaches. Delicious! Will definitely be back.

    These are the lightest and most delicate donuts around. It's like eating sugary clouds! Great selection of kolaches and croissants as well.

It's a very popular place here and some donuts were out of stock for the day despite coming here not all that late in the day. I got two donuts. I got the Glazed Donut and the Brown Sugar with Salt. The Glazed one was all right at first as the tingling of salt mingled with the sweetness and it definitely came across as a novelty but by the end of the Glazed my enthusiasm diminished a bit as that was all it felt like I was tasting but salt. I don't think that was entirely it but that's all my taste buds were picking up. But now the Brown Sugar and Salt Donut... now that was a good one! The flavors blended much better and I had more than enough enthusiasm to finish it. I do like Brown Sugar very much so this was a Donut I can definitely recommend if you come here. I wanted another but I controlled myself. They have coffee drinks as well that are solid so they make a nice pairing as you nosh on your donuts and want some coffee to go along with it.

The hubs and I decided to split the Big Elvis donut with house made peanut butter icing, fresh grilled bananas, grilled bacon and honey). What is not to like about this combination of ingredients? This savory donut's base was Gourdough's (play on words) signature sourdough donut and then layered with each of the ingredients.

I prefer the mini but they're sold out a lot which shows you how spectacular this place is. My go to is the nutty valentine. The donut is always warm, fresh, and crispy. And the toppings of Nutella, cinnamon, and strawberries adds dimension & the perfect story. There is plenty of patio seating and lots of parking outside. There can be a line on the weekends and they tend to sell out so keep that in mind. The staff is friendly and service is quick!

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!
