    Outside at night. Storefront and drive-thru.

    We had a good experience at this Krispy Kreme. It's the only one in Raleigh, which I found kind of surprising since North Carolina is Krispy Kreme's home state. There are five Krispy Kreme stores in the Triangle. I grew up close to the one in High Point: https://www.yelp.com/biz/krispy-kreme-high-point-2 At this location, we picked up an Assorted 3 Pack for $5.79 ($6.27 after tax). We got two Original Glazed Doughnuts and one Chocolate Iced Custard Filled Doughnut. As always, regardless of location (in my experience), the doughnuts were delicious. You can't go wrong with a classic Original Glazed, in my opinion. At the right temperature, they melt in your mouth. And they're yummy at room temp too. As for the Chocolate Iced Custard Filled Doughnut, I enjoyed it. I think I prefer the version with "Kreme" Filling because the Kreme has a lighter, fluffier consistency than the custard, but both are tasty. At the time of our visit, a dozen Original Glazed were priced at $14.49 ($1.21 each), Assorted $16.49 ($1.37 each), and Specialty $18.49 ($1.54 each). 3 Pack Original Glazed was $5.29. They also offered combos (doughnuts + coffee/milk) and individual drinks like coffees and iced lattes (machine-made, $4.49 each). We visited on a Saturday night around 8pm. The store was comfortably busy with dine-in, takeout, and drive-thru orders. It wasn't crowded. Our wait was very short. Service was fine. This is an old-school Krispy Kreme with a classic, retro look, inside and out. This location opened in 1970. It's in downtown Raleigh, on the border of the Historic Oakwood neighborhood, just one block east of William Peace University (I knew it as Peace College). Like other Krispy Kreme locations, this one has clear views of the doughnut production line. I always enjoy looking at it. They also had the traditional Krispy Kreme fold-up paper hats here. The drive-thru lane and parking lot wrap around the building. There's plenty of parking.

    Pros: Hot & Fresh Donuts , fresh & friendly service! We were able to get in and out within a matter of minutes although they were pretty busy. Cons: Carbs

    I drove to the Krispy Kreme in Raleigh as the Wake Forest location was drive thru only when I bought the donuts for Discount Tire. I was planning to go inside. when I arrived there were a bunch of cars parked so I took one of the empty spots as I was getting out of the car to walk around to the door the lady working the window let me know it was drive thru only. So I appreciated that she saved me a trip around to see the note on the door. So I wanted to try the new donuts and had a coupon so I got in the drive thru lane that wrapped around the building. It moved pretty quickly considering the number of cars ahead of me. Two vehicles did get out of the line at various points. I got the banana pudding; strawberries and Kreme and the key lime donut as well as some other favorites. Customer service was very friendly from the minute I got out of my car to the minute I left the drive thru. They were very patient as well as I forgot to say how many donuts I was ordering. I will come back here the next time I am craving donuts.

    I haven't visited Krispy Kreme since relocating to Raleigh so I was in for a treat while driving through the Historical Oakwood section of downtown. My daughter insisted we pull over to get some donuts. The Drive Thru was already flooded when I pulled in and I had some time to think about my choices. There something about the thick sugar coated glaze on the original and Glazed raspberry filled donuts. My staples are the Raspberry filled and iced chocolate with rainbow sprinkles. The light was off so unfortunately I did not get to enjoy these babies warm.

    Hot and fresh!

    I've always loved Krispy Kreme; I mean they're fantastic. I stopped by to ask about party favors and the manager was so friendly and helpful. He gave me a sample of the box and doughnuts for the favor. I love how you can watch the doughnuts being made fresh and they will grab the doughnuts directly from the line. Krispy Kreme doughnuts are yummy, gooey, and perfect in every way. I only indulge every once in a while for my health, but I wish I could eat them more often.

    We stopped here purely because we drove by and noticed the old sign and there was a wait for dinner, and I'm glad we did. The strawberry sprinkles glazed donut was the perfect appetizer! So light and it had the perfect, glaze crunch. We also tried a regular glazed and chocolate frosted creme filled donut. As a Krispy Kreme newbie, I look forward to coming back. The staff were so nice and prompt too.

    I have visited this place a few times, I don't eat too much this type of treats but when in do I enjoy them. This donuts are good specially with a cup of coffee, they are sweet and delicious. Not the best ones that i ever had but it's just personal preference. Today they got a few for halloween, i got two.

    Stopped by Tepuy Donuts after seeing it repeatedly pop up in my social media feed. There's plenty…read moreof parking available, but the donut shop appears to be in a rougher part of town and there was a security guard in the parking lot during my visit. The donuts looked great on display when you walk in, but unfortunately my experience with the service was disappointing. I ordered a crème brûlée donut and noticed one had a visible finger imprint, as though it had been picked up and put back. There were several other fresh donuts available, so I was surprised it wasn't replaced with a better looking donut. The display case was quite full despite it being later in the day, which made the situation even more frustrating. We ordered a glazed donut, crème brûlée donut, and a Dubai chocolate donut. Unfortunately, none of the donuts lived up to expectations. All three were served cold, the crème brûlée tasted less than fresh and the Dubai chocolate was noticeably dry. I also felt like the Dubai chocolate was overpriced at $7 given the quality. Overall I left disappointed. While the donuts look appealing, the service and quality didn't match the hype, and I don't see myself returning.

    We got 4 donuts. That's all we wanted…read more The lady who served us was really cold. As we were checking out, we asked if the cinnamon rolls on display were all they had. We didn't say we wanted one but she charged us for one anyway. We had no idea, she didn't clarify our receipt with us, she didn't communicate much at all. As we were getting in the car, extremely disappointed and upset with the service from this establishment, she ran out to give us a cinnamon roll. She said we had forgotten but we didn't even ask to order one. I thought she was coming out to apologize for her attitude. Clearly confused, instead of explaining to us that she thought we had ordered a cinnamon roll, she just extended her arm inside the car and put the box of on the dash of my car, then went back inside without a word. She could've easily remedied the situation by simply saying, "Sorry, I didn't know you didn't want a cinnamon roll." I would've let everything go right there. Instead, she just stared at us as my sister and I were clearly perplexed by what was going on. An apology could've gone a long way and I wouldn't have felt compelled to write a review. The donuts were genuinely not bad at all but the service left such a bad taste in my mouth I can't quite cleanse.

Anytime we want late night chicken, we can't find a solid place that's close by we have to drive 25-30min. We can only eat rise in the morning. It's an amazing breakfast don't get me wrong, but we really think the Cary Morrisville area needs a solid late night chicken spot.

You order at a kiosk, although a staff member was nearby and available to assist.

It was incredibly delicious, and the sweet tea was excellent as well. The restaurant was modern and very clean, and the service was friendly. Since there was no dining area, I ate outside on a bench. Although I really enjoyed the food, I'm not sure I would return unless indoor seating is added.
