    Honestly stopping here is a guilty pleasure of mine. If I'm in town and the hot sign is on, I have to go. The staff here is always so pleasant when I visit. Good customer service goes such a long way nowadays, so I definitely wanted to point this out. They always have cute decorated seasonal doughnuts on display. I usually just get the original glazed doughnuts though, and they never miss. Also for my dairy-free folks: They now offer oat milk for their coffee drinks! I was both shocked and excited when I saw this, so be sure to ask for oat milk in your coffee or hot/iced latte if you can't drink whole milk. Nothing better than coffee and donuts in my opinion. Not sure about the frozen drinks though. Highly recommend this location, I have no complaints and will definitely be back lol.

    What's not to love about Krispy Kreme? It is a long-established brand and their donuts are definitely a great option when you are craving something sweet. Krispy Kreme got its start back on July 13, 1937 in Charlotte, North Carolina and has since grown into a global empire with over one thousand four hundred locations. That in itself is quite the success story, but it is even more impressive that they still have a quality product. This particular Krispy Kreme location is in Gainesville, Florida and I am confident that a good percentage of their customer base is either the students or faculty of the University of Florida, also known as UF. The staff here was friendly and professional and only enhanced my overall experience at this particular location of Krispy Kreme. The place has a cool enough ambiance, pretty much what you wouod expect from a Krispy Kreme. I would definitely recommend this particular location of Krispy Kreme.

    Elf doughnuts in reality when they don't have all the parts

    Located just outside the UF campus behind The Standard, this Krispy Kreme is usually a good chance to find the hot and now sign lit and ready. Wanted to get some of the Elf advertised doughnuts before the holidays ran out, but I guess the elements to the doughnuts ran out before my trip. They did the best they could with what they had, but it definitely didn't have that Elf feel as advertised.

    Salutations. I visited the Gainesville 13th Street Krispy Kreme Doughnuts on February 21st at approximately 10:00pm. They were out of the custard AND kreme filled doughnuts. WHAT!!! WHAT!!!!!! WHAT!!!!!! DISGRACE. I took 4 Advanced Engineering exams today and crashed my car into a ditch trying not to hit a raccoon on the way to my exams and all I could think about was the perfect sweet goodness of a chocolate frosted frosting-filled Krispy Kreme doughnut. And imagine my surprise and despair when I arrive and all they have are regular kind, sprinkle kind, popcorn, and blue raspberry??? Brotha???? I am not mad, I'm just disappointed. And imagine my further shock when I am confronted with a 16.99 bill for a DOZEN doughnuts!!! What is wrong with this country??? Boe Jiden you owe me 7.99.

    I've been going to this place honestly for over 40 years. I love that they've kept the original building and everything as the city has changed around it. One of the few old mainstays in this part of town. I really like high end pastries and coffee, but the world will always need a straightforward coffee and doughnut shop. Never change!

    Sometimes my fake tan can look a bit Krispy and can require Kreme, but never as Krispy and Kremey as the donuts here. Way down in Gainesville Florida you'll find this great college area donut shop which can give you a lot of delight, especially if you're a college student looking for some crazy sweet snacks, and I have to admit they're pretty amazing when they're hot. This location is great for that because they're often hot here. You can often find them hot in the middle of the night here which is more than you can say for a lot of the Krispy Kreme locations.

    The red light was on! How can we not stop? It is almost a crime not to stop. As we walk in, there are many customers with their eyes almost as glazed as the donuts while trying to pick their favorite. My husband gets a selection of filled, drizzled, decorated and chocolate covered. My son gets the sprinkled and I get the original glazed. I go for the minis to try to justify the calories but who am I kidding? I plan to eat one when I get home with a cup of coffee but the smell in the car is too much to take and I grab one. Just one. It melts in my mouth like cotton candy. It is sweet, yeasty and delectably delicious. YUM.

    Where else do you find a bit of nostalgia other than in an old fashion donut shop! We that will be only at an original Krispy Kreme! Where you know they are always fresh donuts when their neon light is flashing. A last night treat when you need that sugar or caffeine fix. Remember, this place is old so don't expect updates or spotless establishments but the sugar glazed donut is why you are here. Image a freshly sugar glazed donuts that just came from the gooey melted sugar conveyor belt. It is decadent. Piping hot, sticky and melts in your mouth. You got to be a fan of the "donut shop" to appreciate its appeal to this new and upcoming side of Gainesville. Cheers

    What time does the store open in the morning?

    The shop is open 24 hours a day.

    What time is the hot doughnuts light usually on?

    When the hot doughnuts are ready & out for sale. Pretty sure they make them when they start to get low.

They also have outdoor seating on the patio out front. Concord Coffee offers a nice selection of drinks with unique syrups, etc. Although I didn't order coffee this time, I would be willing to try it in the future! The staff is super friendly and helpful. Their pastry case is limited and I believe they get their baked goods from somewhere local. I wasn't sure what to get and the worker recommended any of their pastries, as opposed to their bagels, as they were delivered fresh today. I ended up ordering the cinnamon roll, she heated it up and that took about 5 minutes. The cinnamon roll itself wasn't anything super special. The dough reminded me more of that of a croissant due to its flakier consistency. The glaze on top was light and the cinnamon inside was underwhelming. I still didn't have a problem with it until I reached the center. I noticed the center wasn't fully heated up and even felt slightly cold. But my biggest issue was the fact that the dough in the center was very much raw. It was not cooked/baked through at all. Disappointing to say the least. I would not return for a pastry or baked good, as I believe you can find better ones around the area for a better price. But I would return to try the coffee. Overall, I think Concord Coffee is a super cute coffee shop located in midtown. The staff is really sweet and helpful as well. I thought the inside was clean and I appreciated the decor. With that that being said, I would stick to beverages as opposed to their food items. My cinnamon roll was anything but special, I feel like one from Publix would have left me more satisfied. By biggest issue was definitely the fact that it wasn't baked through and raw in the center. I will get around to trying their coffee at some point in the future.

Definitely a place that welcomes sitting and talking, where you can relax for a bit. A small selection of bagels and baked goods, but all are good quality. 3-4 kinds of bagels and 3 kinds of muffins on the days we were there. The coffee is decent but not spectacular, though they have a long list of specialty drinks to appeal to a variety of tastes. There aren't any pour over options, if you aren't getting an espresso drink you're getting coffee from an urn. The beans do seem well sourced, the brewing doesn't seem like it's getting the best out of them.

Located right on the cusp of downtown, the cafe is a great place to relax, socialize, and study. The inside is rustic with an "old European" kind of feel. There really isn't another cafe like this in Gainesville! The service was super amiable and helpful. I specifically wanted to check out Cafe Voltaire for their crepes as I've heard so many rave reviews. And after spending this past summer in France, I feel like I am a good judge of an "authentic" crepe. I went just after they opened (8am) and it wasn't busy at all. While I wanted to try a crepe, I was told they don't start making them until 9am. Unfortunately, I couldn't stay that long on this particular morning, so I didn't get a chance to try their crepes--but I will be back to try one FOR SURE. Since I couldn't try I crepe, I ordered one of the items in their display case. They bake several other items in-house and even have home-made gelato! I opted for a piece of their bacon-Gruyère caramelized onion focaccia. She worked offered to serve it with an herbed butter and house-made pickles, so of course I opted for that! The focaccia was served heated up and was decent. I honestly thought it was a little dry and the butter lacked salt. While this wasn't a hit, the chocolate gelato I ordered to go certainly was! This truly brought me back to Europe and I will need to get some more of their gelato down the road. Overall, while I was unable to try a crepe, the item I truly wanted, I still had a good experience. The focus wasn't bad, but could have been better. But that gelato--WOW was that memorable. You really cannot find anything like this in Gainesville and it is a true gem of a cafe. It is very reminiscent of a European cafe and really look forward to returning. I will be updating this review soon with a review of some crepes and coffee too!!
