Oh, good Lord! *insert hard eye roll* Shipley's no longer lives here! I pulled up to the drive thru, checked in on Yelp, and had to do a double take when I saw that all the Shipley's signage had been replaced by "Shimmery Donut" signs. (If you aren't paying attention, you'll miss it as it looks almost identical to the original, stylistically speaking.) Was I tempted to immediately burn rubber and drive away? -- YES! But, I decided to give them the ol' college try AFTER discussing 2 major concerns with the girl working the drive thru window. Me: Ok, my eyes aren't deceiving me and this is no longer a Shipley's location, correct? She: Correct. We switched names about 6 months ago. Me: K! Me: But what about the product, has it been salvaged? She: Yes, it's the same. Me: ok, PERFECT! (Crisis averted!) But, the crisis was NOT averted at all! I ordered my donut-ty breakfast usual: One dozen original glazed donut holes and an ice water. (lol) Of the 12, I could only stomach two. How in the heck are the donuts not fresh, pillowy, and amazing at 7:27 in the morning? -- It's friggin' 7:27AM for Pete's sake! If they're stale at 7:27am, there's definitely no hope for donut lovers visiting at 8:30, 9, or 10AM! -- Just save your money, don't even bother. And you dare not take them to work for your colleagues. (Sorry, my doughnut standards are high!) That's not the Shipley's way at all. Shimmery is cutting major corners, y'all... and to their detriment. Staleness aside, they didn't even taste the same, and I cannot. 10 hours later, the 10 remaining donut holes are currently still sitting in my car. (I'll trash them once I get over my disgust!) Funny thing is, I couldn't even pawn them off on the hubs-- and he'll usually try anything I offer. But, he's a smart man and he knew there was a problem because I always buy a limited quantity and I NEVER offer donut holes. (especially not Shipley's) He usually has to wrangle the bag out of my hand! Le sigh. So, there went that! As the saying goes... "Fool me once, shame on you!" Shimmery, you got me this morning! I was trying to continue to support local, but now you've forced my hand and you'll find me over at Krispy Kreme for my donut fix-- when (and only when) the "hot sign" is on! Fact: Shipley's is greater than Shimmery. read more

See all

Stopped by for a couple of donuts and was very impressed. The donuts were larger and had more filling than most other donut shops. My only regret is that I don't live in the area. read more

Absolutely the best in Conway! Not too heavy. Not too oily. Always a friendly staff!

This will always be Shipley's to me. Not Shimmery's or whatever they are calling it now. When I first realized the name had changed I worried that the product had too. But the donuts are still light, fluffy and delicious. read more

Good donuts; they are fresh, light, and fluffy- I like the plain glazed best. No matter when I go, I can never get the chocolate cake donuts, which is frustrating. If those are so popular, they should make more each day. read more

Donuts were wonderful. Staff very friendly, establishment clean. Definitely making it our place to go for donuts.

Great do-nuts... My Arkansas native husband may be winning me over from Krispy Kreme!
