Praise the California takeover! That's right, you heard this native Texan say it. Shout it from the rooftop! For the last two Sundays i found myself in the drive thru line, waiting for the freshest, most delicious kolaches and donuts and coffee that they've had in a long time. It took me back to the late 90s when they ruled supreme in the donut and kolache world. The only thing different is that the price is a lot more expensive. But this tlTexan doesn'mind paying California prices, if that means way better quality. Keep up the great work, ladies and gentlemen. We will keep going back and referring business as long as you keep cranking out this type of quality. read more

Shipley Do-Nuts - A person holds a red coffee cup with a white lid outside a brick building with an archway and windows. - Donuts Near Me - Temple, Texas

A very small apple fritter with very few apples. Sugered dough is what I was given. Very disappointed. Won't return.

Terrible drive thru (curb is too far from the building) and prices are high compared to other shipleys nearby

Should be called Shitty Donuts. I asked for a dozen chocolate and maple bars, old fashioned, and buttermilk. I got an entire box of raised glazed except 1, packed on their sides so they smeared all over each other. read more

Shipley Do-Nuts - a box of assorted donuts - Donuts Near Me - Temple, Texas

The food looks good and tastes delicious, amazing service, definitely recommend Shipleys donuts!

Delicious and six minutes from home. They have maple with bacon long johns on the weekends. This shop closes early like 3 pm, so if you're looking for late night donuts we'll keep on trucking. My husband had bear claw and fritter, he really enjoyed. I tried iced chocolate and glazed. Light airy, but not without good taste through and through. Staff was very friendly... yup we will become regulars here. read more

I don't get it. I just don't get it. Please help me understand what's all the hype about Shipley's Donuts? I am still trying to figure it out. They have a deep following which is a good thing, but it makes me wonder if it just boils down to you don't know what you don't know....? What I do know is donuts, I've had plenty in my lifetime, and I'm always looking for one primary factor when it comes to any type of food: quality. Something that separates you from the pack, which in this case would be HEB or Dunkin. Unfortunately Shipley's has fallen short on this aspect every time I've sampled their donuts. I've had their long-johns, they resemble store-bought (HEB) donuts but there's an additional drawback - - there's hardly any cream or custard inside. I take a bite on one end expecting there to be custard, and I have to keep biting - - in most cases at least half way through - until I get to the good stuff! Last week someone brought some into work and only 25% of the long-john had filling in it - - WTF? I wonder if it's skimping or an execution issue, but to be honest every long john I can remember falls way short of expectations, so maybe it's their standard. I have never been to their store, maybe they taste fresher when you're there, but generally speaking they taste similar to donuts and pastries you can get at HEB. I've had their kolaches - - WHOOPEEE! The bread tastes like.....bread from a hotdog bun, nothing special, and it's not sweet or fluffy and isn't any different than....a regular hotdog bun you buy at HEB. So I don't get that one either. 2-stars means I've experience better, and that's what sums up my experience with Shipley's. Maybe if you venture out of the city lines you just may find some places that make a kick ass donut...but then again I wouldn't want to rock your Shipley's boat. read more

This place is my favorite donut shop of all time! Always smiling faces and always goes out of the way to at least chat with me for a few seconds while they're grabbing my order that they can because I know how busy they are especially in the mornings. Very christian-based environment love all the writings on the walls and the paintings on their Windows it just amazes me. I just always have a very nice warm welcome when I come in here and would recommend this store to everyone. read more

Shipley Do-Nuts - Best Halloween Donuts around so cute my kids loved them!! - Donuts Near Me - Temple, Texas

The donuts are always good, the kolaches are the usual mediocre too much bread donut shop quality. The customer service is why the three stars. Every visit there I am rushed, and they all seem very annoyed to be helping customers at the counter as other reviewers have mentioned. It is surprising given the theme of the decor. read more

Lost my business completely. I routinely go to Shipley donuts but today I didn't have kids with me and just wanted a bag of donut holes because I had a headache. Who knew they had a min credit/debit card transaction. So even though my bank and issuing card agreement says they can't have a minimum, they still impose it. I'm done with companies that only care about themselves and not the customer. I thought shipley's of all places would be different but I guess not. Just greedy at the end of the day. read more

Donuts are good, but sadly never have donut holes when I want them. They need to work on communication between employees because when I went through the drive through i ordered 5 donuts, got charged for them all but only received 4 (the person at register was calling out what i ordered over their shoulder). Should have checked before I left, now i know. read more

I like this location. The donuts are always tasty everyone is always friendly. I have been here are all hours, and they are always ready to help. The drive thru is semi-slow sometimes, but still a great location. read more

Shipley Do-Nuts - a white truck driving down a wet street - Donuts Near Me - Temple, Texas

The customer service is definitely lacking at this location but the donuts are donuts.

Inside is nice and clean. Staff inside are quick and friendly. Drive thru is very slow though!! You'll be in and out quicker if you go inside. Love their sausage and cheese kolaches!! read more

Awesome donuts. Good food and coffee. Many different flavors of donuts. Hard to decide on a favorite. The glazed are amazing.

The doughnuts are excellent and all personnel are friendly. For about 6 months I have been told that the machine that makes cake doughnuts is broken. They do on occasion have them so the machine appears to work when they want it to. Should just say "we didn't make them". read more

I have been going to this place since before they relocated and to this day they have my favorite donuts and kolaches. The people that work their, especially the ones that have been there from the start, are so nice and are clearly happy to be there! read more

Everything is delicious, I just don't understand why everyone working here is so cold? It seems like the person helping you is always annoyed. No smile, and they just look like they hate working here. read more

Shipley's is the stuff dreams are made of - seriously. When they're fresh and hot, nothing beats their donuts. The kolaches are wonderful, especially the cheese ones. I have never had a bad experience with this location and the drive thru is incredibly fast. read more

I love this place. Service always fast. Always playing Christian music. And the donuts are awesome. My kids love them for an after church treat on Sunday. There is always a line but it moves quick. They keeps sign person on 31st Str pointing folks down to the store. read more

Not bad, nothing special. Went looking for Kolaches, they had three meat/cheese types, two had little smoky hot dogs inside I think and were rolled up like a hot dog bun. Girl was very rushed at the counter, didn't seem happy to have me there; more like here's your stuff now get out so she could serve the drive up window. Will be looking for more authentic and unique donuts. read more

My family, the insensitive brood, love Shipley Do Nuts! I am diabetic/gluten intolerant and to make really interesting allergic to yeast. No donuts for me...and they are always in the house! You can hear them when they are getting low. "Okay, whose making a run. Make sure you get..." I hear, "Oh man, that's good." and all sorts of other accolades. I can tell you this...they smell wonderful and look beautiful. As for the taste...well, apparently they are, "The best dang donuts ever!" read more

The inside of the store was decent. I ordered a dozen do nuts and 2 of the kolaches. The donuts were great. Especially the glazed. The kolaches were run of the mill as the breaking seemed to be from a can. They were decent, just not the best. The donuts were really good tho. Watch out for the people in the drive thru though because they don't watch out for you. read more

Love this place!!! The people really make it great! Donuts are just icing on the awesome service cake!!!

Horrible service, sassy employees, cold donut holes and a kolache that was all bread. Really disappointed by this Shipleys, I usually have a much better experience at different locations. read more

Visit this location when shopping in the area. So far every visit has been a good one and the place is always clean. Couple of the employees even know what I want as soon as they see me. (yep been there that many times.) Love the devils food donuts and the sausage egg and cheese. read more
