I love Krispy Kreme doughnuts! The staff have always been friendly and patient, even when people don't know what they want or are making massive orders. The doughnuts are good and consistently so. The hours are also great because in a college town it's good to be one of the few places open so late! The only downside to this particular location is unfortunately not something easily fixed, and that's accessibility. There is no way to left turn into the establishment and often the line is so long that it spills out onto the main road. So overall the food and service is good. It's just the debate of is it worth figuring out how to get there.

KRISPY KREME is BACK!!!! I was here at 5:15 AM on Aug 21 for the Grand Re-Opening. There were cars backed up for a quarter mile, and a line around the corner waiting to get in. The owners & staff had done an excellent job of preparing for a huge day so everything went quickly. Those "HOT NOW" signs are right! The Donughts are GREAT! Welcome Back Krispy Kreme!

Everything is awesome. Very awesome. The doughnuts are great, the Hot and Now ones melt in your mouth. The coffee is above average but still really good. The place is super clean and the staff are without a doubt the nicest and happiest around - can you blame them?? They work in a doughnut shop!

Love the staff at this restaurant; very friendly and helpful. Not sure if it's new, but it appears that way and is very clean. I swung in to grab a donut & coffee. They have a large fresh array of both. I didn't even know Krispy Kreme offered that many types of donuts! This location also sells Krispy Kreme gift items. I bought myself two shirts as well. I will definitely return if in the area again. Just don't tell my trainer.

Doughnuts 24 hours a day? Yes! I love and will only eat their cinnamon twist. It's the perfect size to have and not feel like a doughnut whale for the rest of the day.

Yelp is a Great way to share awesome places from your community. I am yelping about Krispy Kreme Tuscaloosa. For years, and i'm talking about the last 40+ this family owned business has always been loved by our community. Swept away by April 27th 2011 tornado, it is back and better than ever.

The Good: :: it's krispy kreme. nuff said! :: when the donuts are hot and fresh, they light the red neon sign. pay attention and pull over IMMEDIATELY. nothing beats the feeling of a fresh warm glazed melting in your mouth like candy. i'm serious, it is like a moment of heaven :: they have a good variety of other donuts like donut holes, filled donuts, cake donuts, etc :: the place is kept clean :: they loop a video in the dining area to entertain you while you hog out on donuts. the video shows you how the entire process goes for a donut, from ingredients in the manufacturing plant to the end product. very educational! :: they sell their coffee, which is tasty. pick up a bag and try it! :: you can see how the donuts are getting cooked in the donut room via a huge glass window you can see through. very entertaining for both adults and kids! The Bad: :: the parking lot is pretty damn small :: getting into the place can be a nightmare if you are heading westbound on mcfarland/highway 82. don't try the left turn in front of the store when it's busy...go down a little further and make a uturn. :: employees can be super blech/meh/grumpy/unfriendly. that doesnt deter me from eating there :D The Ugly: :: none Would I go back? Try and stop this donut lover!!!! This place is IN.

I could eat here enough to gain 50 lbs in a year! I love this place, and the new building is fantastic (rebuilt from tornado a year or so ago)! Plenty of staff here, and they're always friendly. You can see the donuts made in the back, through the array of glass walls. They have a fantastic selection of items here, probably none of which are low-cal... but who can resist, particularly when the Hot Light is on? :)

I think the new Krispy Kreme looks nice. Staff was friendly this morning.Too bad the parking lot is so darn small. My biggest complaint: lack of variety. Oh sure, it looks like there are so many different kinds of doughnuts. but notice anything that they all have in common? Glaze. I mean I like glaze, but where's the chocolate cake doughnut? I thought that was their best one! The only non-glazed options were the powdered (could go to Publix for that) and traditional (was one of the worst plain doughnuts I've ever had. Dry and just bad tasting all around). I will say their raspberry-filled doughnut was outta this world, but I'm not going to fight crowds for that.

This is the most stylish Krispy Kreme I've ever been in. The employees were very friendly & my kids enjoyed watching the doughnuts being made. The parking lot is a little small but everything else totally makes up for that. Loved it!
