TL;DR: Highly recommended. Excellent pit stop on I-81. ***Ambiance*** An inviting place for sight, smell, and taste! From the moment I step foot into the shop, the tempting aroma of freshly baked donuts enveloped me. The place is neat with approximately seven tables for dine-in. Most of the traffic there is for takeout orders. Parking is available right in front of the store and is an easy on-off option. We were there for a pit stop. The restrooms are clean and well-maintained. They have an automated assembly-line for making donuts, and if you time it right, you might be able to see it in action. A must-do for young kids. ***Staff*** Friendly staff. They were welcoming and they were patient with us while we were deciding from their large collection of donuts. ***Food*** Krispy Kreme never fails to satisfy my cravings for something sweet. The donuts themselves are pure heaven--perfectly fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth goodness. With a wide array of flavors and toppings to choose from, there is something to please every palate. We ended up ordering a set of 12 donuts, six original glazed, and six mix of flavors and found them all to be superb. **Overall** Highly recommended. Wonderful place to visit. I confess that in the past; I have overruled Google Maps and have modified my travel route on I-81 (without telling my travel partners) so that I can make a pit stop here...hehe. read more

We hadn't been to Krispy Kreme in quite a while because we have no locations close to us. On our way NYC, we passed through Clark's Summit and knew we had to stop. There were many new flavors since our last visit and all our old favorites. We had questions and the employee helping us, Debra, was so patient and friendly while she answered our questions. The "HOT" light wasn't on but our donuts were very fresh. Two chocolate covered and white cream filed, one glazed with raspberry filling and a new one to try, chocolate cream topping on a glazed chocolate frosted ring donut. delicious! read more

Well first off let me say that I have visited this location many many times and I personally absolutely love Krispy Kreme donuts. Especially when you can get them fresh right off the line. They even have a light in the window that flashes when they are making new ones in case you're driving by and having to see it and you want to peel in there and grab some. Due to my job description I'm usually at this location around 4:00 or 5:00 a.m. which is fine because that's when the donuts are usually fresh and I can grab a coffee and head home. Bathrooms are always nice and clean and I've never had any issues at all with any employees there they are all very professional and patient while you stand around and choose which donuts you want. They also have specialty donuts during specific holidays and unfortunately I missed it last summer a key lime pie donut that just tastes incredible. Now of course for you people following me you understand there's going to be something bad about this place in my review :-(. It's a lot of this is not their fault as covid-19 happened so they are short staffed and because of this over the past year or so during the times I've been here the lobby has been closed not a big deal though however because the drive-thru is open 24 hours. Right now for example it's 3:34 in the morning and I am at this location. Google says the drive-thru is open 24 hours, there's a sign in the parking lot that says lobby temporarily closed drive-thru open 24 hours. Unfortunately the drive-through is currently closed. I spoke with a gentleman who happened to come outside to throw some trash away or something and he said yeah because of covid they are so short-staffed that even the drive-thru isn't open 24 hours anymore. I didn't want to come off as being rude however my first thought was well why don't you go over there and take down that sign? Maybe update the Google hours however that would be up to management, but still it could be done. So very sadly I am not going to drive home without donuts. This is the nearest Krispy Kreme to my home and it's about an hour and 15 minutes away. Hopefully next time I'm in the area it's a different time of day and I can get my donut fix. read more

Krispy Kreme - Donuts Near Me - Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania

On of the locations where you can watch them make the donuts fresh...and buy them as they come right out. Been to this location several times while in PA and even staying at the hotel next door...easy walk to get fresh Krispy Kreme donuts. Nice to watch the donuts as they go through the process. There are limited time specials as well - happened to be week they had blueberry glazed donuts..they were a bit too sweet for me. I prefer regular glazed or the donuts with filling. Hard to just have one when they come out fresh. Bought 1/2 dozen regular glazed to share and a couple of blueberry glazed to try. This location is a drive thru too..so stop by to pick up some Krispy Kreme donuts to go. Picked up some on the way home to NYC on another trip. read more

DONT DO IT horrible customer service at this KRISPY KREME location don't give them your $$ The absolute worst customer service experience I have ever encountered! I hate to use race as the reason but without getting into details I am Hispanic and was not even greeted, met with attitude and eye rolls staff, manager didn't even acknowledge me! I was first in the store took the 3 workers 4ever to ask me what I wanted while 2 white couples followed and were in and out in less than 5 min. took them about 20 min to get me out the door ignoring me for about 10 min an getting my one coffee order wrong while making it with a big attitude. if your "not white" ( what this world has come to.) and have had a similar experience at this Krispy Kreme. please post it! i have never been treated so horribly as a customer! read more

Had to stop by on the way back to NYC. I've always had Krispy Kreme donuts via fundraisers, so this was my first time stopping in an actual store. There's a great variety of flavors from oreo to cinnamon. It's definitely a place to check out, but be careful... Too much sugar is not good :') Service: The front lady were extremely helpful in letting me take the time necessary to pick out flavors considering it was my first time. Price: I feel like it's cheaper than Dunkin Donuts but I'd say it's around the same. Ambiance: Pretty typical of any fast food chain, but inside is really clean. Overall, this is a good place to grab some yummy donuts if you're on the way. read more

Frequently my husband and I stop at this location on our way to weekend trips to Philly as it's right off the highway. It's your typical Krispy Kreme which is a special treat for us, in general as we no longer have locations in our home town. I love the Hot traditional glazed and really love it when they have the Hot traditional donut holes available. Their filled donuts can be hit and miss, as I have had some with minimal filling and others that had a decent amount. I really enjoy their cake batter filled variety when they have it. Their holiday decorated options are usually super cute. They have a drive-thru available for quick pick-ups. Multiple coffee flavors, smoothie/frappe options, general store merch also available here. Download their app for rewards and special coupon deals. read more

Thru sheer luck we happened upon this Krispy Kreme while driving up Interstate 81 on our way to visit Niagara Falls. The freshly made donuts here, which you can see thru the windows in their open kitchen, were the best donuts I've ever had. And I've had them all. From Dunkin Donuts, where I did most of my studying in college (and picked up a lot of second hand smoke) to expensive gourmet hipster donut shops in Manhattan. The signature Krispy Kreme donut aka the original glazed was just made when we got here the first time. Excellent! I made sure to set my GPS to stop by this Krispy kreme once more driving home from our road trip. The glazed creme filled donuts were just made this time around and they blew me away. The donut was still warm and the cream melted in my mouth. Great price. I think for a dozen donuts I paid $9.75. Nice facility and friendly service. read more

Krispy Kreme - Freshly made donuts about to be glazed! - Donuts Near Me - Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania

Krisy Kreme is without a doubt one of the best donuts you will ever eat. I mean, they are all soft, fresh, tasty, delicious and really look good too. It's too bad they received such bad press some year's ago. They really offer a great product, just do not eat a dozen a day. There shops are always conveniently located on main roads with easy access and exit. They also have plenty of parking. I like the drive through but also like to see everything available. Glad they have an indoor shop in Penn Station in New York. All there free standing places are pretty much the same. Big, bright with extremely friendly team members. Who can resist watching the conveyor belt in action. Being that we always get the same thing every time we visit a KK, it was a quick visit. Just love the custard filled Chocolate donut. Also, the glazed chocolate donut, these are my favorites. I know that I can count on KK for a great cup of coffee too. I hope that they open a few stores. There are plenty of customers to go around between DD and KK. Keep up the good work! read more

Nothing like a craving for something sweet. To my surprise we found this Krispy Kreme right off the highway. We picked up a dozen assorted donuts/ lemon filled, raspberry ry filled, original glaze, and boston creme. We also order ice coffee. Although the iced coffee could have been better as we had it black and the coffee had a small amount of acidity, even when paired with a donut. There are no tables for seating in or out, the place seemed exceptionally clean and the staff was wearing masks so it was good to see they follow protocol. We really enjoyed it. read more

I haven't had a Krispy Kreme donut in probably 12-15 years. I remember them opening in Rochester (my hometown) around the time I was in college, and within a couple of years it was closed. I also remember them being very sweet, very airy, easily compressed in the mouth, and overrated. But, they had a cool robot donut machine. Fast forward to 2019, and while driving through town my friend and I saw one. We stopped in on the way back as I had to relive this part of my life (who knows if IT would be around still in another 12-15 years?) The robot machine wasn't on but I took some pictures and then looked in their display case. They had at least a dozen donuts, more than I remembered, but most were based on the round glazed donut (strawberry glaze, coffee glaze, sprinkles, etc.) They did have a few filled donuts. Since we were on our way home to dinner I could only get one, so I got a strawberry glazed donut. It was very sweet, very airy, and easily compressed in my mouth. But it wasn't overrated. To have something you thought was gone forever will do that to you. Now, my friend didn't get a donut. He passes by here now and then. He said that if the "hot" sign was on outside, indicating that they were making them fresh, he would have eaten one. But not now. To him, they were just overrated. That is what happens when you have a KK near you... you take it for granted. read more

It's been years since I've had a freshly made Krispy Kreme donut so it was amazing to have them again. The moment you walk into the store, you're hit with the scent of sugary fried dough goodness and it's like getting a whiff of heaven. Went there at around 6 pm and there was still a decently sized line but it moves pretty quickly. Absolutely would recommend stopping by if you're in the area. read more

Krispy Kreme - Donuts Near Me - Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania

Okay so I've never had Krispy Kreme doughnuts in my entire life.. I know, what kind of human being am I? As I was on my way home back from upstate NY.. my friends saw Krispy Kreme on one of the exit signs and said "OMG we have to go there". They were also shocked I've never had it before so we HAD to go. Although I never had Krispy Kreme prior to this visit, I am very happy that the first time I'm eating it is when its freshly made. All I gotta say is, there's gotta be more Krispy Kreme chains in NJ!!! Upon walking in, you can see how the donuts are made - the plain donuts are constantly fresh. When you place your order, they will pick the fresh plain donuts off the assembly line. I got a dozen to go for the family (which they devoured the same day.. should of gotten an extra box lol) but I had to have a fresh one so I opened my box and oh my lord, this is what heaven must feel like. I never had a better donut - the sweetness, temperature and texture was absolute perfection. I wanted to eat more but I had to control myself. My mouth is watering as I am writing this review. This place is amazing - smells incredible in here, staff is very friendly, the coffee is good and the store is very clean. Now on the search for more Krispie Kreme stores.... read more

A little sad that the conveyor belt wasn't going when we got there because I really wanted to show my boyfriend how awesome Krispy Kreme is. We decided to come here because the other location was closed when we got there. The store is very modern and clean and was worth the drive to eat at. Plenty of parking outside and also had a drive thru and bathrooms. Customer service was excellent and there were a lot of donut flavors available to choose from. Looking forward to coming back here again. read more

I had my very first Krispy Kreme original glazed doughnut about the same time as I got some teeth and was able to chew. A family friend would always stop by on Sunday morning and bring one dozen original glazed doughnuts. They would always be so fresh that the doughnuts were still warm, and the sugar glaze was still sticky. That was more than fifty years ago. I was passing by on an early Sunday morning and in not the best mood actually, so I stopped in and treated myself to a dark roast coffee and one original glazed doughnut. It literally was like going back in time. It was just as amazing as it was all those years ago and it saved my day, I was "uplifted" for lack of a better word and have been back every Sunday since. The quality hasn't changed and fifty years on that's worth a review and I don't write many reviews. Krispy Kreme Clarks Summit deserves one. Thank you. read more

I found the Kreme de la Kreme of donuts! For around $3, I tried 3 donuts: glazed raspberry creme filled, glazed regular, and chocolate ice custard filled donut. This was listed in order of my favorite to lesser favorite. The tartness of the raspberry added a nice balance to the overly sweet nature of a glazed donut. I like yeast-raised donuts much more than cake donuts because of its fluffiness and lightness. They even have donuts that are filled with chocolate creme instead. They also sell cake-style donuts. They have a drive-thru. I don't know if folks compare Krispy Kreme's to Dunkin's but there is an obvious winner in this competition in my eyes (hint: it's starts with a K). Krispy Kreme school fundraisers always did well. I even though about having Krispy Kreme donut favors for my wedding because they offer really cute individual packaging for that. I do think I'll utilize that option for some kind of party in the future. read more

Hmmm This is a bakery location, and you can see the donuts coming out of the donut making machine and down the conveyor belt. Clearly they make the donuts sold around the area. You would think this would lead to fresh donuts for purchase there. Well, it may, but not the one I had. Tasted stale. Sadly I had done "take out" and was not interested in going back to ask for a new one, but I will say, likely wont stop here again, but if I did I'd be sure to ask for one off the belt. That way its fresh for sure. read more

We got half a dozen donuts and two coffee drinks. We love the original glazed donuts especially when it's fresh. We got the cake batter it wasn't good, it tasted too eggy. I got the caramel latte it was way too sweet. The regular coffee wasn't great. The iced coffee was good and not too sweet. The prices are great. Next time we won't be getting drinks from here. We will stick to donuts. read more

The cashier that was ringing me out was so rude here. I asked for pumpkin price ice coffee...she gave me hot regular coffee. I reiterated it when she after she typed it into the register and she said yes and then made me the wrong drink. Then she was trying to argue with me saying I didn't order an ice coffee, I basically had to fight with her to make my correct drink order. Then, she was all pissy making it and bitching to her other coworkers about me in front of me. This is the worst experience I've ever had in a fast-food place. read more

Would be 3.5 stars... ***FYI - This franchise location does *NOT* participate in the Mobile Rewards Program. I told them I had a free doughnut reward offer, and they said (including the manager when the employee inquired about the rewards program) unfortunately this location isn't participating in the program. That said, *NO* offers or any coupons from the mobile app are accepted. Same goes for the accumulation of points. There's no sign posted anywhere in regards to the location not participating (at least when I patronized this place). Folks, be sure to keep this in mind if you have Reward offers. (-2 Stars)*** The above is enough for a rating reduction, but not enough for me to walk out empty-handed. Why? Because I never had a fresh, hot glazed original doughnut from this chain in years (Brick, NJ - Closed Down) and I was really craving for one ever since I found out about this location that was easy to get to from my apartment. This is a "Hot Light" location, which means that fresh, hot original glazed doughnuts are made on the spot during certain times of the day. I'll settle with those instead of the delivered ones that may become stale later on. When I walked in on Saturday around 7:30AM, I saw the kitchen where the hot, original glazed doughnut making procedure was in progress. 1st is the mixing. Then the rest of the procedure being on a conveyor belt, frying, glazing (oh yeah), and then sending for distribution. I enjoyed seeing those breakfast treats being made when I was a kid in Brick, and still enjoy watching them now as an adult. I ordered one Hot Original Glaze Doughnut, while specifically saying that I wanted the fresh one from the conveyor belt. The doughnut was really warm when I started eating it. It was also moist and sticky from the sweet, smothered glaze that covered the doughnut. Ahh, freshness at its finest. I also ordered their unique Original Kreme Latte to go along with my breakfast treat. The latte was simply made up of espresso, steamed milk and their Original Glazed Doughnut flavored syrup. The taste was quite unique and it wasn't too sweet! The girl even offered whipped cream on top moments after I paid, which I accepted of course. The whole place appeared to be clean. A drive-thru was available for those who didn't want to stop in to buy. Giant windows were available for the patrons who wanted to see how the doughnuts were made, and seating with the classic KK paper hats were available. Limited souvenirs (t-shirts, travel tumblers, etc.) were also available. The Hot Light can be seen outside. This location is on US-11, which is also a prime spot for anyone who wants to come via I-81, I-476, US-6, and US-6 Business. The Hot Light hours are from 6AM-11AM, and from 6PM-11PM. Overall, this is a fine location. I'll definitely come back on a once-in-a-while basis, but ONLY when the Hot Light is on. Hey, who can resist a hot, fresh glazed doughnut? read more

I went to my local Krispy Kreme with a coupon I received in the email for one dozen strawberry glaze donuts for $5 with the purchase of ANY regular priced dozen doughnuts.

Yesssss this stop made my day...my weekend!!! Watching those soft pillows cooking, flipping, glazing and then in my box was a fabulous experience! These donuts melt in your mouth and it's super cool watching them being cooked fresh and placed in your box fresh from the conveyer belt still warm. I knocked one star off because I remember they used to give you one free donut when you went in and were watching them cook. That was a bummer just because I haven't been to one in years as the one in Buffalo New York closed. Still am so excited to tear into these donuts and not sure they will make the ride to Buffalo to share! read more

Every time I go anywhere south of Syracuse, I always make sure and stop here to get myself a yummy donut. Now I have had donuts all over the lace and everybody has their own method that makes their donuts amazing. Although Krispy Kreme is a chain shop, I can't help but love their method. When you walk in you will be greeted to an intoxicating smell of dough and icing. If you didn't want a donut before you will definitely want one now. The key thing KK does different is they have all their donuts hot and fresh going down this conveyor. Icing pours on them like a dedicate dance of delicious. Anytime you come here I always recommend asking for a fresh one right off the belt. Price wise they are right in line with any other donut shop. So they won't break the bank at all. If you are in the area. Come here for a sweet treat stat! read more

Came in because the app I downloaded said they would have 1 free donut.... then I go to show it to the cashier and the manager is like "I don't honor those apps cause I'm a franchise and I'm not giving anything away for free" I understand that it's your business but you don't need to be rude about it... and if it's a franchise then you should remove your information from the app so people don't come back for the advertisement they market read more

I've only been here twice. The donuts are good, but when you can get them fresh off the line they are amazing, and I wasn't able to get fresh ones on my first visit, but I did on my most recent one, and it really makes me wonder how the Dunkin Donuts down the street can even stay in business! I got a dozen with 4 of the fresh glazed ones. The strawberry frosted ones were ok, as was the oreo one. I thought the chocolate chip cookie one was really good though, the cream they used in it actually tasted like cookie dough! the chocolate on the cream filled donut was pretty good, and the cream was good too, but it was pretty light, I think I would have preferred a heavier boston cream filling. While the specialty donuts were good, I think next time when the fresh ones are available I might just strictly go with those ones. The only bad thing was the service. It wasn't awful, but not very professional, it was mostly teenagers up front and I couldn't tell if the girl serving me was listening to me or not, she seemed more preoccupied with what her male co-workers were saying. oh well, teens will be teens. read more

Krispy Kreme - Donuts Near Me - Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania

This is a regular rest stop for me when I am traveling a far distance and pass by Clarks Summit. Krispy Kreme is right off the highway and always has an open bathroom. It's open from 5:30am - 11pm or midnight daily. The drive thru is open 24hr a day. Today I had the chocolate cake donut which was a little dry. The original glazed was soft and sweet as always. They offer some seasonal drinks such as peppermint infused hot beverages in the winter. The frozen hot chocolate is one of the better ones I have had. The staff are always friendly and of course the service is fast. The donuts still stay fresh for a few days so sometimes I will get their half-dozen deal. The apple filled and raspberry filled donuts are also quite tasty. Of course they taste like the filling comes from some processed jelly, but that is to be expected at $1 a donut. read more

As someone who's never been to a "real" Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, this was quite the treat. I've had Krispy Kreme doughnuts before in NYC, but I don't think that they were ever freshly made.

Plus you get to eat the doughnuts right after it's been made, and while it's still soft and warm on the inside. Next time I'm going upstate, I might just make another stop here. read more
