    Customer service was great! Greeted me as soon as walking in and both were happy at 0630 when most are frumps. Selection for ME was great. Seems like they do a little of their own creative twists, and it is cheap. I'm a fan of classic doughnut holes and they were delicious. Homey doughnut shops are nostalgic. I didn't give 5 stars but that's only because I wasn't to impressed with the jalapeño kolache and if I'm not mistaken looks like they use a microwave to heat up the food for customers. My thoughts are a small little toaster oven would make those pastries really give it the "fresh oven" flavor. Maybe I'll try again later. There's coolers of various drinks. Looks like they have coffee drink machine but I didn't try. I'll definitely return here vs going next door to the other chain shops. There is a $4 credit card minimum but that's easy to hit.

    They sell tacos!?

    Woah. Have you ever seen fireworks when biting into fresh out of the oven, melt-in-your-mouth donut holes? Well this is the place to experience that! It's hard to explain, just go get you one. On a Sunday, people still kept stopping by, and it was busy! I can see why as their donuts, kolaches, croissants, and tacos, all provide that dose of magic that'll keep them coming. The place is immaculate and the people running it are prompt and friendly. Found my new Sunday donut joint!

    Small Jalapeno Cheese Kolache

    Small donut shop with pretty good donuts and kolaches. Usually, we'll pick up a Jalapeno Cheese Sausage Kolache. The bread reminds me of something that you get at a chinese bakery. Soft and pillowy.

    Awesome and affordable donut shop right down the road, right next to the Anytime Fitness . Donuts are made fresh daily and they give you free munchkin donuts when you order a dozen, for a grand total of about $7.50. They have a variety on their menu from donuts, Kolaches, breakfast sandwiches and burritos, and coffees/etc... Very friendly staff. Seems to be family owned and operated. Their donuts are amazing. They're always a hit with friends and family whonvisit

    So I'm giving 3 stars instead of 2 because my husband liked this place but it was very "meh" to me. I didn't like a single donut and it wasn't even the actual donut part, it was the glaze they use on the outside. I'm used to smooth buttery but it was very hard and crunchy. We even tried to warm it up and that just made it an even bigger mess. The Apple fritter to me tasted like a greasy cinnamon sugar funnel cake (very oil flavor heavy) which I like as a funnel cake but not from an Apple fritter. Jelly donuts were also a little weird to me, especially the texture of the lemon cream/ jelly. Service here was also meh. The boy behind the counter did not want to be there at all. He wasn't very inviting but instead was just like "what do you want?" And very monotone. He also made us feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. None of the donuts had labels so we needed to ask what some things were and he seemed annoyed by that. Which by the way, the chocolate and the blueberry donut looked exactly the same so good thing we asked. Maybe we went on an off day, I'm not sure but I personally wouldn't come back here.

    Great service. They also do speciality donuts and they are sooo good. Nice sitting area if you want to sit too

    Chocolate and Blueberry Cake
    Tranee J.

    I hate to give a local business a bad review but when we went on Sunday morning our experience wasn't great. I woke up craving a chocolate doughnut and blueberry cake, so we went to a close doughnut shop. We ended up getting two sausage and cheese kolaches, two glazed, a chocolate, and a blueberry cake. I'm not trying to be picky but the guy shoved all our doughnuts in the same bag and chocolate frosting got all over the blueberry; not a huge deal, I just peeled that part off. The kolaches were the best part of the order and deserves 2 stars. The doughnuts were DRY and lacking in flavor. To make them more palatable, we dipped them in coffee. After a few bites, we decided they weren't worth the calories. Our teenager did finish them off and promptly stated, "those weren't very good." Our hunt for a goto doughnut shop continues!

    Bacon egg and cheese croissant
    Kim P.

    This was my first time into this store. This store was extremely clean and organized, I did arrive around 1015 in the morning and they still had plenty in there display case. I was greeted immediately through the door and I had informed the women this was my first visit to their store. She kindly said "order when you are ready" I ordered a bacon croissant sandwich which she has warmed up for me. And an Apple fitter. The croissant sandwich was amazing. Good flakey buttery croissant filed with crisp thick cut bacon cheese and an egg that did have a bit of a runny yolk, I love when I get a runny yolk in a sandwich. This may have been a mistake but I loved it. On the apple fritter. One bite into this fresh apple fritter and it brought me right to a carnival. It was warm and crispy. Think of an Apple funnel cake hot out of the fryer. It was to die for! The women did let me know that they were fresh and man were they. I will definitely be back, with amazing service great prices and epic donuts this is defiantly a place you should not pass up

It's a large restaurant and you have two places to order, the donut side or the taco side. They did not communicate very well but food makes it worth it. Just know if you order a donut on the taco side they may not have it on the donut side. Our first time ordering was a bit confusing but nothing too hard to figure out. Can't wait to go back. Feels like home!

    I'm honestly extremely disappointed with my experience at The Original Donut Shop today. My mom and…read moreI stopped by to get a few carne guisada tacos, and this is normally a place we've always enjoyed. I've been coming here since I was a kid and have always had good experiences, which makes what happened today even more disappointing. We both took a bite of our tacos and immediately noticed that they tasted burned. We couldn't eat them, so I called the restaurant to make a complaint. I was told to bring the tacos back, so I did. When I brought them back, the "manager" asked me, "Where's the rest of the taco?" I explained that I had taken a bite, realized it tasted burned, and spit it out. She then told me she couldn't replace the tacos unless I had the entire taco. I understand needing proof of an issue, but expecting a customer to bring back an entire taco after they've already taken a bite and spit it out because it tasted burned is unreasonable. What bothered me most was the way the situation was handled. There was no real attempt to make things right or acknowledge that we had paid for food we couldn't eat. It's especially disappointing because this was a place I grew up going to and genuinely loved. After the way I was treated today, I will never be coming back. Good food can be ruined by poor customer service, and unfortunately, that's exactly what happened today.
