    Having thought I've eaten through most donut shops in BR, I was surprised to learn the existence of…read moreCrispy Donut, which has supposedly been around for the better part of the last two decades. Located along Highland Road just outside of the LSU campus, this Asian-owned biz has been hiding behind a popular Chevron gas. station. It's not much to look at from the outside, but fans of donuts and kolaches will be able to enjoy something here. The inside is quiet and has limited counter seating and goes heavy on the LSU decor. It feels like a cafe that is dated but still hasn't finished the renovation. I imagine the idea is to pump some gas and get a donut, which has a staple format for so many BR peeps. The menu will always elicit a double take from me, with its awkward placement of numbers and the fact the stickers are so large that they had to abbreviate kolache to "kolach" and jalapeño to jalap. What's not condensed is those prices, which show nearly $40 for a dozen boudin kolaches and $12-20 for a dozen donuts. The breakfast croissants are $44 for a dozen, which just feels very steep. If a donut maximizes the taste, then the value is sometimes justified. However, trying their glazed, sprinkled, cake, fritters, and chocolate donuts, I can't say they're exceptional. The jalapeño kolaches and boudin kolaches were solid, but I'm not likely to order them again. The fact they still have Yoohoo in the fridge, is a nostalgic throwback I can appreciate. The owner is a sweet Cambodian man and is welcoming for every customer. Any attempts to use a credit card will incur a 50 cent surcharge for any purchases less than $5. Parking is limited to the gas station spots, but it's never crowded enough in here to be an issue. Lastly, every pastry shop is guilty of this, but the mini flies stuck inside of the display case is a massive turn off. ___________ (#1) Thank you, Yelp app.

    We were so excited to see Krispy Kreme and decided to stop by even though their fresh hot sign was…read morenot lit up. We were told there was a 12 minute wait on glazed donuts. We ordered chocolate glazed but was told they only had 11. They were out of mostly everything. It was mid afternoon so I guess they stop making donuts throughout the day. We barely made it out with 12 donuts and they were almost 15.00 a dozen. Sad state of affairs. Might have been better to get them from the grocery store.

    I've visited Krispy Kreme four times this past week--each time, hoping to get my hands on…read morelemon-filled donuts. Every single time, I've left disappointed because they didn't have any, even right after opening at 6 a.m. The sweet smell of donut dough and icing that wafts out when they open the drive-thru window is always a nice touch, but the experience quickly goes downhill from there. One employee mentioned their drive-thru doesn't actually open at 6 a.m., even though there's no signage anywhere to inform customers of that. Today was the last straw. I went to pick up donuts for my parents and ordered 3 glazed and 3 lemon-filled. The employee took my order at the speaker, then asked me to repeat it again at the window. I was handed a box and assumed, after all this time, I finally got what I came for. Wrong. Once I got home, I opened the box to find only 3 lemon-filled donuts--no glazed at all. After four failed attempts and poor communication from staff, I'm officially over Krispy Kreme. It's frustrating to keep showing up for something so simple, only to be met with repeated letdowns.
