    3 pack glazed donuts
    Hannah V.

    I came through the drive thru today and ordered a 3 pack of glazed donuts. The curb appeal of the building is not great- bumpy parking lots, weeds all over, and tree branches hit your car in the drive thru loop. The service however was quick and efficient. The donuts tasted like the KK usual: good! I do enjoy having their app and getting rewards and points. Overall, not my favorite location, but gets the job done.

    I drove down to Des Moines specifically for Krispy Kreme. Was it worth the drive? Yes and No. Donuts are amazing warm, be sure to check the hot hours, usually first thing in the morning or the dinner rush. I did take a box home and warmed them up. So yes, worth it. Docking a star because I went for the July 4th box and they did not have it.

    These days with covid-19 I always try to use the drive-thru when I can. I will say it looks like the safety procedures are being followed the staff are masked and have gloves so that's good news. the donuts as always are really good I love the original glazed and I really enjoy the chocolate glazed as well. I think if you ever want to be a hero in your family you could always get a dozen of these to go and bring them home for a wonderful treat. It's the only crispy cream I know of around for many miles and they have a great product. It's always good to support a local business that's trying to keep us safe and still provide good stuff.

    It's very clean, organized, and well maintained store. To be frank donuts are not something I would commonly get my myself... I'm more a savory food person, and donuts are way too sweet for me. But I guess it's because I haven't experienced the best of donuts yet! I still don't really like regular donuts, but the ones that just made from the machine, the donuts that JUST got coated with sugar 5 seconds ago.. is AMAZING. It's still warm, the top sugar layer is still not sticking to the donuts due to the heat.. THAT IS SO GOOD. It's not as sweet due the the sugar frosting is kinda melted away or is crumbled and falling down while you eat the donuts so you can taste the dough flavor way more than just sugar. I LOVED IT! Didn't know it could be this good and also didn't know you can request for the ones that just made from the machine! I like the store and I saw many people were there ordering the freshly made donuts (they know whats uppp) which you can tell it's a pretty darm popular place to be! lol Not sure I'll go there more often (rarely once a year for me), but I will sure take the opportunity if someone ask me to go there! Or if you are a donut fan, well no excuse for you!

    This is the only Krispie around for miles. The few times I've been it's always clean and courteous. The donuts were rolling off the conveyor belt this morning when I came in around 10. Today's big this was the chocolate chocolate glazed donuts. They had hot fresh ones and then I found a coupon for a free dozen of the original glazed too. There was about seven people working behind the counter making donuts. The line was not long, it moved quickly. I bet earlier in the morning was crazy with the first Friday of the month promotions. They are busy enough that the donut cases ate empty after a short time in the mornings. The smell in there is intoxicating and you could stand and watch donuts being made for awhile if you wanted.

    Love the donuts when they are fresh off the conveyor belt. If you get the app there is a notification when the are being freshly made. Get coupons in the mail, ValuPak, and in the app for some awesome bogo deals. Usually in and out within minutes. They do have a drive thru.

    I am a big fan of Krispy Kreme donuts, but not the biggest fan of this location. The sitting areas were pretty dirty when I went with a group of friends. The floors looked like they hadn't been cleaned in a while, and the bathrooms were pretty gross. So, overall the cleanliness of this place was not great. The employees were there but did not seem to care too much about helping. They were more distracted by other things. It seemed that all the employees I saw were teenagers, so I'm not sure where the manager was? The donuts were very good, and hold to the Krispy Kreme standard, so I recommend the donuts, but I'm not a supporter of the environment that they are in.

    Stop 2 of our daddy daughter afternoon. Dessert and coffee!…read more Tucked away in Valley West Mall is European Taste. This shop has been on my list for a while, but every time I seem to get to VWM is on Mondays. The only day European Taste is closed. That's my luck... Lol It's a small space with three two person tables if you choose to dine-in. Which we did... It's order and pay at the counter. The majority of the food items are handed to you upon ordering and they bring the drinks to your table when they are done being prepared. The menu board is easy to navigate and the desserts are showcased right up front in a glass refrigerated case. Straws, spoons, lids, etc. are at a station to your Left as you face the front counter. The owner (Alina) helped us today and you couldn't ask for better customer service! Very personable. I really enjoyed our conversation! She let me know most items are prepared fresh and a few of the specialty items come in through other local sources and/or a distributor. We ordered the following: 2x Tiramisu cake 1x Chocolate macaron 1x Double latte with vanilla syrup with oat milk (hot) 1x Blended chai; iced with vanilla syrup Everything was fantastic and I know I'm going to be back! My daughter is a Starbucks girl and she said the chai was sooo much better here... At almost half the price! Besides the tiramisu cake they offer a tiramisu cupcake... If you zoom in on the picture of the tiramisu cupcake you will note the included extra shot of espresso poised in the tube to be released into the pastry... I have to try that! Not a lot of businesses are thriving in Valley West Mall and I wish I'd made it here sooner. VWM doesn't have the food court of locally owned businesses that Merle Hay Mall has... Yet. But this place is worth the stop! It's literally a couple of storefronts inside the entrance by Blaze Pizza on the second level. Plenty of parking and easy to get to! Convenient to grab and go! If you haven't checked them out yet... Swing in and say hello! https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61559973381958 https://order.online/store/31914193?pickup=true...

I was actually surprised seeing that this place also offers coffee, so as a "cafe goer", I decided to order a latte to my liking. When placing my order, I needed to wait to pay after they have made my drink which made the encounter a bit awkward as I'm standing there watching them. Receiving my coffee, it was your standard latte. As the cup was hot, there was no sleeves having me use napkins as replacement to not feel too much heat from the cup. That was another reason for my low rating.
