Clean and large sized location. Krispy kreme doughnuts are my favorite for glazed doughnuts. I'm happy with the original glazed. One doughnut is $1.15 and a dozen is $10.95. Come when the red light is on outside! It means the doughnuts are fresh. I liked the doughnuts when they are a little warm. On the box, it says to warm it up for 8 seconds and it really does the trick! The perfect amount of softness. This location has lots of tables and is well lit. You also see how they make the doughnuts through a glass window which is interesting to watch as a kid, or as an adult! I rate this place only 4 stars because the doughnuts are kind of pricey compared to other places. Maybe offer some sort of rewards program?

Popped in yesterday during our trip through Oregon up to Washington. The staff were super friendly and patient as we made decisions (We had never been to a Krispy Kreme before!). While I am admittedly not a donut person, the rest of the fam jam really enjoyed the donuts. Unfortunately we were not there when the "red light" was on but everything still tasted fresh. The young man behind the counter let me know that the red light is on at this location from 5-8 am and 3-5pm. The restaurant was CLEAN - beautiful and colourful with an old fashioned twist. Got some great photos of the kidlets in front of the LARGE glass viewing window area as well as some of those nerdy cute paper hats. We also tried 2 chillers - the mocha was great but the birthday batter one was sooooo sweet that we actually ended up throwing it away after all 5 of us gave it a try. It was cute and you could see the rainbow confetti/sprinkles throughout but it was too sweet for us. All in all, it was a great visit! PS - They give you a free donut on your birthday!

I have read there are two kinds of people, Those who like the dense cake like donuts, and those who like the light donuts, I like the second and that is what Krispy Kreme sells. I only stop when the red light is on. You know the light I mean, The neon Hot Fresh Now light. They are light and airy filled with steam and covered with their sugary glaze. Did i mention cheap?? it is hard to beat. Besides the Original glazed they sell different batters, filled etc not to mention drinks. I only by the original though. I also sometimes bring a box with me to work, all warm. They go fast.

Ok, they are doughnuts. Decent, but honestly, not over the moon awesome. The kids love them for some reason and we were passing nearby and stopped by for a treat. Awesome thing, this visit I got a military discount. Any place that does that, I really appreciate it.

Even though we're trying to eat healthy we came here leaving our Foster Care orientation one evening and wanted a warm donut. What we got instead were could donuts that ended up in the trash. My favorite are maple bars, and until this day Heavenly Donuts has the best in my opinion. Krispy Kremes maple bars are more like a syrup flavor and I definitely am not a fan. We went through the drive thru and the employees were friendly but we won't be returning here. Happy Yelping....

Been here multiple times and have always had a great experience. This last time was on Free Donut day and the line was long but the wait was worth it. The store is always clean and the donuts excellent and service good. Wish we had a Krispy Kreme in Salem.

Joy K.
Clean and attractive, smells great! I wish Apple Fritters had been available, but no luck this time. Also no red light, but I don't think the doughnuts could have tasted much fresher. Appreciated the helpful staff and would love to stop by again when in this area.

Very clean and nice, friendly service. Hot donuts when I came in and they gave me a free hot one with every dozen!

My daughter is in love with doughnuts, so reluctantly, we took her here. I've personally had these doughnuts on the job before, and I was never a big fan, but then again, I'm not a big doughnut fan anyways. I thought going in to the store might be better, because I thought they might make them on the spot and be fresh and warm, unlike the ones I eat from time to time at work. We came in kind of late, maybe around 8pmish, and there was a line. Everytime they brought out fresh doughnuts, it looks like that late at night they might have been made awhile ago, and just sat on a rack. I wasn't sure, but they sat there in the display case, and by the time we finally got to the front of the line, if they were ever warm, they were no longer warm. Oh well. The doughnuts were alright. One, the cookie dough doughnut, didn't taste like cookie dough at all, it just had colored frosting that looked like cookie dough. Don't get that one. The others were okay, inlcuding the Java doughnut which also didn't taste like Java. More like chocolate, really. I think these are doughnuts are alright, but people rave about them, and I've had better elsewhere. In a pinch, these will do though.

Small doughnuts for the price. Nothing too special. My wife was hoping for one fresh off the belt, but we settled for some in the case. It's definitely no Voodoo and honestly I'd rather go to another shop right down the street. Pretty good doughnuts but not really worth the hype.

Princess ( my 11 year old) loves donuts. I'm not super excited that she does. Me, well they taste good sometimes but my tummy,arteries, and hips don't benefit from them.If I do want a donut occasionally, I like buttermilk bars or old fashioned things Krispy Kreme doesn't typically have. But this location is on our way to summer camp and close enough that I will cave and get her a couple once in a while. (Because I'm a nice mom, she is a kid, and you're only a kid not worrying about arteries for that short tme. Also her diet includes quinoa and artichokes and salmon so I'm not worried about her nutrition so much, well a little, but shes pretty good with her choices). I like that KK has a drive thru. The women and kids manning it are generally nice and efficient. Their lattes aren't too bad. They sell milk and juice, which I always buy for Princess whether she wants it or not. During the summer she occasionally gets soft serve ice cream on a cone instead of a donut. Cheap and tasty. They also dip them in chocolate if you are so inclined. Princess and her friends say they are better than dairy queen. They have cute seasonal donuts ( pumpkin spice, pumpkin faces in icing, spider webs on chocolate frosting, Ducks and Beaver colors on sprinkled ones for the civil war, etc) and some coffee cake rounds if you're not into donuts that aren't bad. The regular coffee is ok. Nothing special. Today kiddo did not want to go to breakfast at Golden Valley Brewery with me so I told her if she ate some veggie sausage at home I'd bring her a treat. I swung thru after breakfast and got her donuts. I earned massive brownie points. She is all smiles. Tonight she's eating kale! Its all about balance. Right?;)

in terms of reference, this is one of the cleanest Krispy Kreme's I have been to. The surrounding area is also nicely manicured. There is ample parking and a drive through. & if you're wanting fresh doughnuts look for the bright neon signs stating so, these little fried pieces of dough are available fresh off the conveyor belt every few hours daily. 2 stars: as far as taste goes, I am not a fan to the -every doughnut tastes the same game- Just about every doughnut whether it be seasonal, cake, filled, or decorated is covered in the original over the top sweet glaze, making every doughnut that follows tasting the same. being the doughnut person that I am, this is a quick fix for a sweet fluffy pastry need, that fix is then masked by guilt "what did I just put in my body?" They offer hot and cold coffee caffeinated beverages, along with milk and soda. Nothing artisan about the product or the coffee. however, got a new job site or want to impress the upper management? bring in an assorted dozen and you'll be a god in the corporate world

Have not been disappointed yet so still good in my books. For the first time I tried the powdered strawberry doughnut and it was satisfying! I am a total crueler glazed type of gal! Give it a try and after 10pm A dozen of doughnuts are 50% off on selected nights! Not bad if ya ask me!

I said some hateful things about Kreme Krack last time, and there is no reason why I can't roll verbally over the place a couple times more. The most I will do is squeeze out a little Kreme that they overdo. But. I have found that I enjoy those sour creme old fashioneds. I need to warn you though, they give you the fish eye when you ask for a special order. Clearly they are trained within an inch of their lives, but no one while they attend Kristy Kreme Kollege has told them how to handle an irritated limping man with clattering dentures requesting a variation on Burger King regarding special orders. I had a rotten day. I'll fuss some with a clerk. "May I have a sour creme old fashioned without icing?" You could hear the whirring noise of a servo motor on high and steam coming off of their little cap as they fall over with a thud. Oh my. So I got my sour cream old fashioned with icing when the next model of clerk came to take over for the...dysfunctional one laying on the floor still twitching. I took it over to one of their lovely retro modern table and chairs. It is a swell set up here. It reminded me of Disneyland, except in Beaverton. I picked obsessively at the icing, as I looked at the slick lighting, the bullet proof glass around the Rube Goldberg doughnut maker, the graphics and framed photos. Does this joint make enough money to pay for all of this...slickness? Not from me.

I like to go through the drive through for frozen yogurt and an occasional icy drink but rarely donuts. Inside is interesting to view the selection. Lots of seating and easy parking. The plain glazed, when warm, remind me of cotton candy. They melt in my mouth and leave me feeling like I am empty and could eat more. Not so much because of the flavor but a melty sugar rush. Can't believe they have no chocolate cake, chocolate icing combination. If they did how could it be a success when nothing else there is memorable. Interesting flavors but they look and sound better than they are satisfying. Parking is easy and free. Watching the donuts be made through the glass window is a fun experience. The number one donut shop in Portland area is nearby 183rd and TV Highway, Every Day Is A Donut Day. My favorite there is a "Susan" (never on the shelf, but a custom donut). Lots of yummy choices but if you like chocolate, everyone loves their double chocolate.

It has been a few years since my first review and I have had the occasion to eat some Krispy Kreme Donuts a few times since then, I am updating my review. I either am not a Donut person or these are some overly greased and sugared donuts. The last 1/2 dozen I purchased, nearly all went into the garbage disposal and that would be unusual for me, to waste donuts! They just are not good, I am sure there are many other donut places around which have tastier yummies, I am not looking for one because I don't really have the urge to eat them often. I also noticed a chemical taste last time I partook and it was very off putting, along with the grease and overly sugared donut I am thinking KKD and I are parting ways.

Betty C.
Wow really. I have not updated because I love Krispy Kreme and hoped I was just having bad experiences. Nope. Tonight I went in because the hot light was on. Drive out of our way to get a hot donut. Asked for hot donuts. She handed me cold ones. This is of course after we paid. Now I told her three different times I wanted a hot one. So I said but what are you running now can I get that? She told me no they are not the same. I said but I didn't want a cold donut. She said they get cold fast anyway. Wow. Then why have an app for the hot light if you will get ca donuts anyway. No more. No more drives to beaverton. Hot light app is being uninstalled. This is the third time and that's a charm.

Brittanie M.
Pretty straightforward, standard krispy fare! I prefer the standard glazed doughnuts to anything else they offer. The steal of a deal is late night half off dozens! I think it starts at 11pm? Great late night sugar rush and even if you don't get them fresh which is the only way to go, you can honestly mircowave them a few seconds to get a similar effect.

KK was great when it started. Standing in line watching people who watch donuts being made gets old. The donuts are marginal. Smell great and taste ok. Service stinks. Donuts have a unique taste and make you fell horrible after eating a half of a lard sugar bread. Not good.

So, doughnuts, I have to admit I do love these on occasion. I really like them fresh and it seems they are only fresh on a very certain timeline, so no fresh ones for me...I am not usually on the way to a place with a microwave so I have to settle for eating it cold, and that's simply not the way to do it. Them being cold is just like any other doughnut, really. What I'd really like is to have an actual semblance of a line. Everyone just sort of crowds around the small doughnut viewing area and if two or three people are picking their donuts, it's hard to see the selection. That means people start walking around the people ordering to get a view and then suddenly they're ahead of us in line and don't care we've been standing there for a while...nice, get your doughnuts three minutes ahead of us, if you need them THAT badly. Coffee is quite possibly made from the finest quality of nature, there was no amount of cream or sugar that made it taste anything less than farmyard dirt. And I know the taste of farmyard dirt, we were all children once. I dumped half of it, ran you out of cream, decimated your sugar, and still ended up throwing it out.

I love Krispy Kreme Originals and was looking forward to having some Friday night at the Beaverton KK (my first time at that location). I used the drive-thru, waited nicely in that line and ordered 2 dozen -- the Double Dozen Deal and guess what? No Originals! On the corporate website it even said "Celebrating our Originals" -- so you'd think they would have had some on hand. I must say that I have never been to a KKreme that DIDN'T have their own freaking originals -- just how mismanaged is this place.
(2)
Marna G.
Huge fan. LOVE.LOVE.LOVE them. Not only do you get to see how donuts are made -- you know when the lights on they are piping hot and fresh!!!! You can't eat just one. And while they are bad for you -- they are good for your soul. Even if you don't believe you have a soul -- something deep inside says EAT me and boy do I ever!! I don't care how much I have dieted, how much I have sworn off sugar, there is just something about Krispy Kreme and from time to time I must get my fix. So are these death cakes on a plate with sugar coma inducing properties but I don't care -- they are delicious, amazing, and I love.them,very,much. You will be my best friend if you bring me an Apple Fritter and an original glazed!

After tonight, absolutely not! I used to love you Krispy Kreme but with what service I received this evening we are going to have to part ways. I ordered 7 glazed and 5 assorted and somehow received a dozen glazed, 7 glazed, and 5 assorted. The woman who took our order tried arguing with us but regardless we received full compensation and got the heck out of there. Oh, and did I mention these were stone cold doughnuts, days old finest.

Oh Lord Jesus. These are so fucking delicious. Fragrant, warm and light. You can just close your eyes while taking a bite and feel loved! Love. Lets just get married already before my looks go down the toilet and have some babies after a few years of marriage KK. BTW I prefer a platinum ring. But I guess I'll settle for white gold if you must..... ugh. It's ok you're not making as much as when you first opened and people were going goo goo gaa gaa all over you. I don't mind being the bread winner as long as you keep the house clean and not get all fat and ugly while I'm gone making that money cuz you are so fucking H-H-H-HOT! There is no pun there cuz they are never too hot in temperature. Hahahahaha.. oh I kill myself and none of the readers who stumble upon my reviews. I thought I had already reviewed this but guess not. I use to come here late at night on my way home at 2 or 3am in my 20s (ah the 20s.. when eating a whole dozen weekly at 3am meant no weight gain.. that was the best time ever) and stop by after I got off the freeway exit nearby and the red light was usually on.You know what that means.. red light = they're fresh and hot! Yay Yeaa! So fast forward to present day, me visiting Oregon and of course I can't leave without revisiting my old favorites I can't find in Chicago. On my way home from hangin with friends, I stopped by like usual for some donuts. Hours have changed though- they are no longer open 24/7! So I made sure to bounce early so I can get there in time before midnight on a friday.. plus I promised my little bro bro one. Bless the drive thru cuz inside they were packed with a long ass line. No thanks. Sucks that they now reduced their business hours, but in this area.. people are pretty health conscience so they're not really down with KK- we're snobby out here so only special donuts all gourmet downtown or weird and shit at Voodoo. Sometimes they try to pawn donuts off of you cuz it's crickets around here. I hope they stay alive though cuz I'll be back for more every once in awhile that I visit!!! I love you Krispy Kreme! Don't shut down cuz people would rather bike and eat organic granola over here. I shoulda visited everyday when I was at my mom's house.

Not the best donuts in the are but Krispy Kreme is close to where I live so it's great for satisfying my sweet tooth. After all the years of eating their donuts, I still love their original glazed donut the best, maybe because it brings me back to high school when Krispy Kreme first started out. My next two favorites are the glazed lemon filled and chococlate custard filled donuts. I also like how they have cute holiday themed flavors like snowmen and heart shaped donuts.

Thanks to the Krispy Kreme over expansion most locations in Northern CA have been shut down. So needless to say when I come to Portland I visit Krispy Kreme on a daily basis. There is not one doughnut here that I do not like. I love their glazed and even if they are not hot when I get them a quick seven seconds in the microwave heat them up perfectly. I especially love all of their creme filled doughnuts. I was so excited to try the dark chocolate creme filled with chocolate icing and it was the best one I have ever had. They are rich and decadent so I can never eat more than two at a time, and even that is a stretch. This particular location is clean and the staff are young but friendly. Don't take them for granted, you will be sorry if they go.

Krispy Kreme turns up at my office sometimes so I familiar with their basic offerings. But this evening I had seen an ad for their Cheesecake donuts topped with little crunchies. They also had on their website a bunch of blended drinks with coffee and fruits. I was having a weird craving for a blended drink and decided to just have an unhealthy Saturday snack and get a donut and drink. Except I arrived and they had no cheesecake donuts. Plenty of variety of the other ones. None of the ones I wanted. And the drinks they have ALL over their website? Those weren't on the menu either. Only plain coffee. I ended up getting a plain donut and it was good, but not as satisfying as what I wanted. And I ended up empty handed on the drink. The donut I can forgive as they likely just ran out. But they need to update their website if they aren't going to offer their blended drinks at every location their site should say so.

There really isn't any legitimate excuse for eating a Krispy Kreme. No, there isn't. You can stop it right now. YOU know it, and I know it. It doesn't matter if you've worked out twice today. It doesn't matter that you've been "good" and denied yourself sugary treats all week. No one should ever consume these things. They should never be ingested by any living creature. They represent all that is unhealthy, evil and unholy in a food--wait, they shouldn't even be allowed to be labeled a "food". Why the Surgeon General hasn't forced Krispy Kreme to put cigarette-style death warnings on their boxes is beyond me. Nevertheless, they are awesomely delicious, and nothing--NOTHING--will make you more popular at the office than strolling into the break room with a stack of Krispy Kreme boxes. When these deep-fried little death cakes are hot, they must absolutely taste exactly like that forbidden fruit that got A & E kicked out of the G of E. The way that sugar permanently coats every square inch of your palette and tonsils... Ohhhhhh. Anyway, don't eat these things. They'll kill ya. But if you're going by my office, could you pick up a few boxes of original glazed for me? Thanks.

My brother loves Krispy Kreme though to avoid being overcome by obesity, we avoid coming here too often. It's still a great place to get donuts and coffee before going mall walking. My brother likes the blueberry cake donuts when they have them. If you want a donut, yes, go to Krispy Kreme rather than the grocery store deli, just make sure the people at the donut shop don't get too familiar with your face; that would be a bad thing.

Have some sugar with your sugar... I am personally not a huge donut person but on occasion like a good glazed donut. These are not donuts but little bits of fried crack glazed in heroin or, as I have nicknamed them "diabetic coma in a box". Their chocolate cream is all the things you wished the Hostess cup cake was. The drive through here is pretty fast even when it is National Donut Day! And their staff are always really friendly, helpful and quick.

okay so when KK came to Oregon I couldnt understand why everyone was all atwitter over glazed doughnuts. Then I was dragged to the store right after they finished a batch. I was first impressed that you got to see how they were made. Then I was handed a hot..... I do mean hot out of the oil doughnut.... I took a bite..... I swear... my eyes got 10 times bigger and became all pupil. My heart may have grown 3 sizes and I was hooked on the sugary crack puffed air that was in my hand. I did not know how I HAVE LIVED BEFORE THIS DOUGHNUT. and was saddened when it was gone. I am positive it is coated in and baked with a special kind of crack. Seriously my gods this was heaven.... I ate a bit of heaven..... then I proceeded to run in circles for hours. I may have been banished from several friends houses since I couldnt stay still or anything. The sugar had hit me and I was an instantly on the ceiling. I now only go here once or twice a year as my body can only handle that kind of onslaught that much. I have tried their other treats that they have and while they are okay.... nothing to write home about or make me turn into a kitten on crack.

One of the decent donut places here in the metro area. I'm quite far from Voodoo donuts. as the advice for alcohol dirnkers: drink responsibly. this should have labels as well. Dear Fatty: EAT MODERATELY. sweet, soft, melt in your mouth kind of donuts. the price is not bad either. they often serve you with a fresh donut.

Jen K.
0 grams Trans Fat. Does that make it alright? I have a really nice co-worker and the ladies in the office have told him that part of his job is to keep his office stocked with chocolate. You see if the chocolate is in his office, that means that we will (slightly) hesitate before eating it. I know this drives you guys crazy. "Honey, I don't want dessert (or substitute fries or any other delicious thing), you get some and I'll just have a bite." Then, of course it arrives and it is sooo good, so we might take more than one bite. :-) Well, today he went overboard and brought in two dozen Krispy Kremes. And like the crazy women we are, we both loved and hated him for his generosity. Sometimes a guy just can't win. I've never gone to a store myself, but when they are lurking on the coffee bar, I am helpless to resist. I am a maple bar kind of girl, so the maple iced glazed is my personal favorite. I also smile at the memory of the countdown a few years ago when Oregon finally got its first store. Before we had a Krispy Kreme in Oregon, a coworker flew home from Mobile, Alabama with a few dozen Krispy Kremes and she brought them into the office that afternoon. I think it would have been exquisite torture sitting next to her on that flight. :-)

Brandi W.
I absolutely refuse to eat here! Ok, I absolutely refuse to eat here unless I have worked out that day! Hmm, not enough. I absolutely refuse to eat here unless I just finished a 15 mile hike and burned at least 2000 calories!! Yep, that's about right. These aren't doughnuts, so please stop comparing them to voodoo, Doughnut Queen/King, whatever, etc. Yeah, I know the word doughnut is in their name, but really this is just heavily iced cake. You have absolutely GOT to have a big sweet tooth to enjoy these. And if you do, then it is virtually impossible not to love the damn things. So don't even try to go there and get the little, dinky half dozen pack cuz that don't fly. My only issue with this location is that when I get the iced cream filled (I have a SUPER big sweet tooth), they have been inconsistent with the amount of cream inside. So I make sure to order some standard iced doughnuts as part of my 3 dozen just in case...

These aren't the worst donuts in the world (prepackaged Fred Meyer donuts), but they're certainly not the best (see Donut Day). These had been hyped up so much, before it opened, that when we finally got this Krispy Kreme, it did not live up to expectations. The only time they exceed mediocre is when they are hot off the line. If you're really jonesing for a donut, try your local shop: Aloha/Beaverton: Donut Day Ralleigh Hills/Beaverton: Sesame Donut Downtown PDX: Voodoo Northeast: Staccato Gelato (they serve donuts and gelato!) I'm sure there are other good local shops, too... I'm just not well traveled enough to know of them.

Krispy Kreame. What can I say? Good place to get good doughnuts. You have to go in when the light is on to get then nice, hot and fresh. You walk in and are presented with pictures on the walls of Krispy Cream in his baby and childhood years. Walk in the second set of doors and are presented with a large glass wall showing the kitchen. One great thing about this is you can watch them make the doughnuts. Lots of seating and if your not a coffee drinker they do have other choices such as juices, soda and tea.
(4)
Jennifer T.
As it goes with so many places that start out fantastic, over time the quality has suffered. Sometimes the donut oil is rancid, pure and simple. You can taste it and smell it inside the store. Not every time, and I am a fool to say these are not good donuts - but as I experience other donuts, my rating says it all: Meh, I've experienced better.
(2)
Kyle R.
Average Krispy Kreme location. Their doughnuts taste the same at every Krispy location I've ever been to, so there is not much to review, in regards to this particular location. The parking is strange, and its hard to get out of there, if you're trying to get back onto 26. And personally, to get any true Krispy Kreme experience, one must not drive thru -- as everyone should be forced to enter the store themselves -- to pick out their assorted dozen.
(3)
Sam R.
For manufactured doughnuts they are okay. Might as well save time and money by going to the grocery store. Coffee is drinkable but with enough cream and sugar anything can be gulped down. If jonesing for a doughnut it's a fix. Basically the doughnuts are sugar threatened with flour. Great place to take kids to wind them up on a sugar high.

Maggie A.
I'm not in on the whole thing about how these are the best donuts ever, but they are pretty good and are different from others. The Original Glazed really is pretty special when you get to have it fresh enough that it's still hot. Not many donut places offer you that. The coffee is actually pretty tasty and you can get things like lattes and mochas, so that's an extra star out of the gate. They have a drive through, but it's very worth at least one visit inside to watch the conveyor belt if you never have. I have mixed thoughts about watching the donuts move along on the conveyor belt under the descending sheet of glaze. While it's very, very cool to watch and at first gets me hungry for donuts, if I watch too long, it starts to fall under the TMI about food category (kind of like how knowing what's in a hot dog can ruin one if you let it) because it starts to look almost too sickeningly sweet to actually want to put much of that in your body. Not that it stops me. If you have kids that have never been to Krispy Kreme, the conveyor belt should be as much of a hit as the donuts.

eshwar k.
when that "hot donuts now" sign is lit i fly off the highway. and no don't go to the drive thru. you have to see the donuts coming around the belt and catch the aroma to get the total experience. if i were a krispy kreme donut dealer i would easily fail the golden rule "never eat your own supply"..

lili b.
All I can say is I know I'm depressed when I find myself here. The Doughnuts are good yes. But please for the love stop handing out cold old doughnuts. A few years ago that didn't happen as much. Please turn your HOT doughnuts sign on again :) maybe not enough people go here anymore. Btw, getting out of the parking lot if you have to turn left is a joke.

damn this place for being literally across the street from 24 hour fitness. while i'm driving by, the aroma of sweet warm donuts lurk through my vents and tell me "hey fatty you dont need to go to the gym today, have a donut." especially when the "hot and fresh" sign or whatever the heck is says is turned on, it only means theres a free fresh hot donut waiting for me on top of the dozen i would've planned to buy if i stepped in. but its too bad i don't have a strong sweeth tooth. the sweet smell in the air is already enough for me.. Everytime i take my first bite into that sweet warm original glazed, i swear my teeth are about to fall out. but that's just me. but for all you sweet lovin' homer simpsons out there, they are open until midnight, so hurry up and get it! and its good entertainment for kids, they can get a free hat at the end of the line.

Clean and large sized location. Krispy kreme doughnuts are my favorite for glazed doughnuts. I'm happy with the original glazed. One doughnut is $1.15 and a dozen is $10.95. Come when the red light is on outside! It means the doughnuts are fresh. I liked the doughnuts when they are a little warm. On the box, it says to warm it up for 8 seconds and it really does the trick! The perfect amount of softness. This location has lots of tables and is well lit. You also see how they make the doughnuts through a glass window which is interesting to watch as a kid, or as an adult! I rate this place only 4 stars because the doughnuts are kind of pricey compared to other places. Maybe offer some sort of rewards program?

Popped in yesterday during our trip through Oregon up to Washington. The staff were super friendly and patient as we made decisions (We had never been to a Krispy Kreme before!). While I am admittedly not a donut person, the rest of the fam jam really enjoyed the donuts. Unfortunately we were not there when the "red light" was on but everything still tasted fresh. The young man behind the counter let me know that the red light is on at this location from 5-8 am and 3-5pm. The restaurant was CLEAN - beautiful and colourful with an old fashioned twist. Got some great photos of the kidlets in front of the LARGE glass viewing window area as well as some of those nerdy cute paper hats. We also tried 2 chillers - the mocha was great but the birthday batter one was sooooo sweet that we actually ended up throwing it away after all 5 of us gave it a try. It was cute and you could see the rainbow confetti/sprinkles throughout but it was too sweet for us. All in all, it was a great visit! PS - They give you a free donut on your birthday!

I have read there are two kinds of people, Those who like the dense cake like donuts, and those who like the light donuts, I like the second and that is what Krispy Kreme sells. I only stop when the red light is on. You know the light I mean, The neon Hot Fresh Now light. They are light and airy filled with steam and covered with their sugary glaze. Did i mention cheap?? it is hard to beat. Besides the Original glazed they sell different batters, filled etc not to mention drinks. I only by the original though. I also sometimes bring a box with me to work, all warm. They go fast.
(4)Tom S.
Ok, they are doughnuts. Decent, but honestly, not over the moon awesome. The kids love them for some reason and we were passing nearby and stopped by for a treat. Awesome thing, this visit I got a military discount. Any place that does that, I really appreciate it.
(3)Nyla S.
Even though we're trying to eat healthy we came here leaving our Foster Care orientation one evening and wanted a warm donut. What we got instead were could donuts that ended up in the trash. My favorite are maple bars, and until this day Heavenly Donuts has the best in my opinion. Krispy Kremes maple bars are more like a syrup flavor and I definitely am not a fan. We went through the drive thru and the employees were friendly but we won't be returning here. Happy Yelping....
(2)Eric E.
Been here multiple times and have always had a great experience. This last time was on Free Donut day and the line was long but the wait was worth it. The store is always clean and the donuts excellent and service good. Wish we had a Krispy Kreme in Salem.
(5)Joy K.
Clean and attractive, smells great! I wish Apple Fritters had been available, but no luck this time. Also no red light, but I don't think the doughnuts could have tasted much fresher. Appreciated the helpful staff and would love to stop by again when in this area.
(4)Celine W.
Very clean and nice, friendly service. Hot donuts when I came in and they gave me a free hot one with every dozen!
(5)Stouty M.
My daughter is in love with doughnuts, so reluctantly, we took her here. I've personally had these doughnuts on the job before, and I was never a big fan, but then again, I'm not a big doughnut fan anyways. I thought going in to the store might be better, because I thought they might make them on the spot and be fresh and warm, unlike the ones I eat from time to time at work. We came in kind of late, maybe around 8pmish, and there was a line. Everytime they brought out fresh doughnuts, it looks like that late at night they might have been made awhile ago, and just sat on a rack. I wasn't sure, but they sat there in the display case, and by the time we finally got to the front of the line, if they were ever warm, they were no longer warm. Oh well. The doughnuts were alright. One, the cookie dough doughnut, didn't taste like cookie dough at all, it just had colored frosting that looked like cookie dough. Don't get that one. The others were okay, inlcuding the Java doughnut which also didn't taste like Java. More like chocolate, really. I think these are doughnuts are alright, but people rave about them, and I've had better elsewhere. In a pinch, these will do though.
(3)Trent M.
Small doughnuts for the price. Nothing too special. My wife was hoping for one fresh off the belt, but we settled for some in the case. It's definitely no Voodoo and honestly I'd rather go to another shop right down the street. Pretty good doughnuts but not really worth the hype.
(3)Janet M.
Princess ( my 11 year old) loves donuts. I'm not super excited that she does. Me, well they taste good sometimes but my tummy,arteries, and hips don't benefit from them.If I do want a donut occasionally, I like buttermilk bars or old fashioned things Krispy Kreme doesn't typically have. But this location is on our way to summer camp and close enough that I will cave and get her a couple once in a while. (Because I'm a nice mom, she is a kid, and you're only a kid not worrying about arteries for that short tme. Also her diet includes quinoa and artichokes and salmon so I'm not worried about her nutrition so much, well a little, but shes pretty good with her choices). I like that KK has a drive thru. The women and kids manning it are generally nice and efficient. Their lattes aren't too bad. They sell milk and juice, which I always buy for Princess whether she wants it or not. During the summer she occasionally gets soft serve ice cream on a cone instead of a donut. Cheap and tasty. They also dip them in chocolate if you are so inclined. Princess and her friends say they are better than dairy queen. They have cute seasonal donuts ( pumpkin spice, pumpkin faces in icing, spider webs on chocolate frosting, Ducks and Beaver colors on sprinkled ones for the civil war, etc) and some coffee cake rounds if you're not into donuts that aren't bad. The regular coffee is ok. Nothing special. Today kiddo did not want to go to breakfast at Golden Valley Brewery with me so I told her if she ate some veggie sausage at home I'd bring her a treat. I swung thru after breakfast and got her donuts. I earned massive brownie points. She is all smiles. Tonight she's eating kale! Its all about balance. Right?;)

in terms of reference, this is one of the cleanest Krispy Kreme's I have been to. The surrounding area is also nicely manicured. There is ample parking and a drive through. & if you're wanting fresh doughnuts look for the bright neon signs stating so, these little fried pieces of dough are available fresh off the conveyor belt every few hours daily. 2 stars: as far as taste goes, I am not a fan to the -every doughnut tastes the same game- Just about every doughnut whether it be seasonal, cake, filled, or decorated is covered in the original over the top sweet glaze, making every doughnut that follows tasting the same. being the doughnut person that I am, this is a quick fix for a sweet fluffy pastry need, that fix is then masked by guilt "what did I just put in my body?" They offer hot and cold coffee caffeinated beverages, along with milk and soda. Nothing artisan about the product or the coffee. however, got a new job site or want to impress the upper management? bring in an assorted dozen and you'll be a god in the corporate world
(2)Thuy N.
Have not been disappointed yet so still good in my books. For the first time I tried the powdered strawberry doughnut and it was satisfying! I am a total crueler glazed type of gal! Give it a try and after 10pm A dozen of doughnuts are 50% off on selected nights! Not bad if ya ask me!
(4)Lisa G.
The product is excellent (although this location has biffed it a few times). But the service at this location is awful, especially the manager. He was rude to us again today. I'm sick of that jerk.
(1)Annie T.
Love when the red light is on! Draws you in from the freeway...lol! Always have had great customer service thru the drive thru. We haven't walked into one yet. My fave is the original glazed..warm
(5)Bob M.
I said some hateful things about Kreme Krack last time, and there is no reason why I can't roll verbally over the place a couple times more. The most I will do is squeeze out a little Kreme that they overdo. But. I have found that I enjoy those sour creme old fashioneds. I need to warn you though, they give you the fish eye when you ask for a special order. Clearly they are trained within an inch of their lives, but no one while they attend Kristy Kreme Kollege has told them how to handle an irritated limping man with clattering dentures requesting a variation on Burger King regarding special orders. I had a rotten day. I'll fuss some with a clerk. "May I have a sour creme old fashioned without icing?" You could hear the whirring noise of a servo motor on high and steam coming off of their little cap as they fall over with a thud. Oh my. So I got my sour cream old fashioned with icing when the next model of clerk came to take over for the...dysfunctional one laying on the floor still twitching. I took it over to one of their lovely retro modern table and chairs. It is a swell set up here. It reminded me of Disneyland, except in Beaverton. I picked obsessively at the icing, as I looked at the slick lighting, the bullet proof glass around the Rube Goldberg doughnut maker, the graphics and framed photos. Does this joint make enough money to pay for all of this...slickness? Not from me.
(2)Susan B.
I like to go through the drive through for frozen yogurt and an occasional icy drink but rarely donuts. Inside is interesting to view the selection. Lots of seating and easy parking. The plain glazed, when warm, remind me of cotton candy. They melt in my mouth and leave me feeling like I am empty and could eat more. Not so much because of the flavor but a melty sugar rush. Can't believe they have no chocolate cake, chocolate icing combination. If they did how could it be a success when nothing else there is memorable. Interesting flavors but they look and sound better than they are satisfying. Parking is easy and free. Watching the donuts be made through the glass window is a fun experience. The number one donut shop in Portland area is nearby 183rd and TV Highway, Every Day Is A Donut Day. My favorite there is a "Susan" (never on the shelf, but a custom donut). Lots of yummy choices but if you like chocolate, everyone loves their double chocolate.
(2)Cheryl D.
It has been a few years since my first review and I have had the occasion to eat some Krispy Kreme Donuts a few times since then, I am updating my review. I either am not a Donut person or these are some overly greased and sugared donuts. The last 1/2 dozen I purchased, nearly all went into the garbage disposal and that would be unusual for me, to waste donuts! They just are not good, I am sure there are many other donut places around which have tastier yummies, I am not looking for one because I don't really have the urge to eat them often. I also noticed a chemical taste last time I partook and it was very off putting, along with the grease and overly sugared donut I am thinking KKD and I are parting ways.
(2)Betty C.
Wow really. I have not updated because I love Krispy Kreme and hoped I was just having bad experiences. Nope. Tonight I went in because the hot light was on. Drive out of our way to get a hot donut. Asked for hot donuts. She handed me cold ones. This is of course after we paid. Now I told her three different times I wanted a hot one. So I said but what are you running now can I get that? She told me no they are not the same. I said but I didn't want a cold donut. She said they get cold fast anyway. Wow. Then why have an app for the hot light if you will get ca donuts anyway. No more. No more drives to beaverton. Hot light app is being uninstalled. This is the third time and that's a charm.
(1)Brittanie M.
Pretty straightforward, standard krispy fare! I prefer the standard glazed doughnuts to anything else they offer. The steal of a deal is late night half off dozens! I think it starts at 11pm? Great late night sugar rush and even if you don't get them fresh which is the only way to go, you can honestly mircowave them a few seconds to get a similar effect.
(4)Ramie M.
It's a donut.
(3)B C.
KK was great when it started. Standing in line watching people who watch donuts being made gets old. The donuts are marginal. Smell great and taste ok. Service stinks. Donuts have a unique taste and make you fell horrible after eating a half of a lard sugar bread. Not good.
(2)Diva A.
So, doughnuts, I have to admit I do love these on occasion. I really like them fresh and it seems they are only fresh on a very certain timeline, so no fresh ones for me...I am not usually on the way to a place with a microwave so I have to settle for eating it cold, and that's simply not the way to do it. Them being cold is just like any other doughnut, really. What I'd really like is to have an actual semblance of a line. Everyone just sort of crowds around the small doughnut viewing area and if two or three people are picking their donuts, it's hard to see the selection. That means people start walking around the people ordering to get a view and then suddenly they're ahead of us in line and don't care we've been standing there for a while...nice, get your doughnuts three minutes ahead of us, if you need them THAT badly. Coffee is quite possibly made from the finest quality of nature, there was no amount of cream or sugar that made it taste anything less than farmyard dirt. And I know the taste of farmyard dirt, we were all children once. I dumped half of it, ran you out of cream, decimated your sugar, and still ended up throwing it out.
(3)Ana M.
I love Krispy Kreme Originals and was looking forward to having some Friday night at the Beaverton KK (my first time at that location). I used the drive-thru, waited nicely in that line and ordered 2 dozen -- the Double Dozen Deal and guess what? No Originals! On the corporate website it even said "Celebrating our Originals" -- so you'd think they would have had some on hand. I must say that I have never been to a KKreme that DIDN'T have their own freaking originals -- just how mismanaged is this place.
(2)Marna G.
Huge fan. LOVE.LOVE.LOVE them. Not only do you get to see how donuts are made -- you know when the lights on they are piping hot and fresh!!!! You can't eat just one. And while they are bad for you -- they are good for your soul. Even if you don't believe you have a soul -- something deep inside says EAT me and boy do I ever!! I don't care how much I have dieted, how much I have sworn off sugar, there is just something about Krispy Kreme and from time to time I must get my fix. So are these death cakes on a plate with sugar coma inducing properties but I don't care -- they are delicious, amazing, and I love.them,very,much. You will be my best friend if you bring me an Apple Fritter and an original glazed!
(5)Dmitriy K.
Love KK Doughnuts!!! Great location. Simply a great place!!!
(5)Jessica S.
After tonight, absolutely not! I used to love you Krispy Kreme but with what service I received this evening we are going to have to part ways. I ordered 7 glazed and 5 assorted and somehow received a dozen glazed, 7 glazed, and 5 assorted. The woman who took our order tried arguing with us but regardless we received full compensation and got the heck out of there. Oh, and did I mention these were stone cold doughnuts, days old finest.
(1)Izzy N.
Oh Lord Jesus. These are so fucking delicious. Fragrant, warm and light. You can just close your eyes while taking a bite and feel loved! Love. Lets just get married already before my looks go down the toilet and have some babies after a few years of marriage KK. BTW I prefer a platinum ring. But I guess I'll settle for white gold if you must..... ugh. It's ok you're not making as much as when you first opened and people were going goo goo gaa gaa all over you. I don't mind being the bread winner as long as you keep the house clean and not get all fat and ugly while I'm gone making that money cuz you are so fucking H-H-H-HOT! There is no pun there cuz they are never too hot in temperature. Hahahahaha.. oh I kill myself and none of the readers who stumble upon my reviews. I thought I had already reviewed this but guess not. I use to come here late at night on my way home at 2 or 3am in my 20s (ah the 20s.. when eating a whole dozen weekly at 3am meant no weight gain.. that was the best time ever) and stop by after I got off the freeway exit nearby and the red light was usually on.You know what that means.. red light = they're fresh and hot! Yay Yeaa! So fast forward to present day, me visiting Oregon and of course I can't leave without revisiting my old favorites I can't find in Chicago. On my way home from hangin with friends, I stopped by like usual for some donuts. Hours have changed though- they are no longer open 24/7! So I made sure to bounce early so I can get there in time before midnight on a friday.. plus I promised my little bro bro one. Bless the drive thru cuz inside they were packed with a long ass line. No thanks. Sucks that they now reduced their business hours, but in this area.. people are pretty health conscience so they're not really down with KK- we're snobby out here so only special donuts all gourmet downtown or weird and shit at Voodoo. Sometimes they try to pawn donuts off of you cuz it's crickets around here. I hope they stay alive though cuz I'll be back for more every once in awhile that I visit!!! I love you Krispy Kreme! Don't shut down cuz people would rather bike and eat organic granola over here. I shoulda visited everyday when I was at my mom's house.
(5)Missy W.
What more can you say about a yummy, piping-hot, fresh original glazed donuts. AMAZING!
(5)Jenny H.
Not the best donuts in the are but Krispy Kreme is close to where I live so it's great for satisfying my sweet tooth. After all the years of eating their donuts, I still love their original glazed donut the best, maybe because it brings me back to high school when Krispy Kreme first started out. My next two favorites are the glazed lemon filled and chococlate custard filled donuts. I also like how they have cute holiday themed flavors like snowmen and heart shaped donuts.
(3)Frankie P.
Thanks to the Krispy Kreme over expansion most locations in Northern CA have been shut down. So needless to say when I come to Portland I visit Krispy Kreme on a daily basis. There is not one doughnut here that I do not like. I love their glazed and even if they are not hot when I get them a quick seven seconds in the microwave heat them up perfectly. I especially love all of their creme filled doughnuts. I was so excited to try the dark chocolate creme filled with chocolate icing and it was the best one I have ever had. They are rich and decadent so I can never eat more than two at a time, and even that is a stretch. This particular location is clean and the staff are young but friendly. Don't take them for granted, you will be sorry if they go.
(4)Erica L.
Krispy Kreme turns up at my office sometimes so I familiar with their basic offerings. But this evening I had seen an ad for their Cheesecake donuts topped with little crunchies. They also had on their website a bunch of blended drinks with coffee and fruits. I was having a weird craving for a blended drink and decided to just have an unhealthy Saturday snack and get a donut and drink. Except I arrived and they had no cheesecake donuts. Plenty of variety of the other ones. None of the ones I wanted. And the drinks they have ALL over their website? Those weren't on the menu either. Only plain coffee. I ended up getting a plain donut and it was good, but not as satisfying as what I wanted. And I ended up empty handed on the drink. The donut I can forgive as they likely just ran out. But they need to update their website if they aren't going to offer their blended drinks at every location their site should say so.
(3)Gioia Z.
It is the BEST donut in the world! YUMMY! Love it so much. Also they open till 11pm which is awesome!
(5)Wolf L.
There really isn't any legitimate excuse for eating a Krispy Kreme. No, there isn't. You can stop it right now. YOU know it, and I know it. It doesn't matter if you've worked out twice today. It doesn't matter that you've been "good" and denied yourself sugary treats all week. No one should ever consume these things. They should never be ingested by any living creature. They represent all that is unhealthy, evil and unholy in a food--wait, they shouldn't even be allowed to be labeled a "food". Why the Surgeon General hasn't forced Krispy Kreme to put cigarette-style death warnings on their boxes is beyond me. Nevertheless, they are awesomely delicious, and nothing--NOTHING--will make you more popular at the office than strolling into the break room with a stack of Krispy Kreme boxes. When these deep-fried little death cakes are hot, they must absolutely taste exactly like that forbidden fruit that got A & E kicked out of the G of E. The way that sugar permanently coats every square inch of your palette and tonsils... Ohhhhhh. Anyway, don't eat these things. They'll kill ya. But if you're going by my office, could you pick up a few boxes of original glazed for me? Thanks.
(4)Eric G.
I don't know how anyone could give Krispy Kreme anything less than 5 stars. Legendary big greasy sweet doughnuts. I drive 20+ miles for these yummy treats. Yay!
(5)Kerbey H.
Good customer service. Kids can watch donuts be made. I get tired of the taste of Krispy Kreme donuts but atleast they are consistent in taste and texture.
(4)Sharece B.
My brother loves Krispy Kreme though to avoid being overcome by obesity, we avoid coming here too often. It's still a great place to get donuts and coffee before going mall walking. My brother likes the blueberry cake donuts when they have them. If you want a donut, yes, go to Krispy Kreme rather than the grocery store deli, just make sure the people at the donut shop don't get too familiar with your face; that would be a bad thing.
(3)Mikhail H.
Have some sugar with your sugar... I am personally not a huge donut person but on occasion like a good glazed donut. These are not donuts but little bits of fried crack glazed in heroin or, as I have nicknamed them "diabetic coma in a box". Their chocolate cream is all the things you wished the Hostess cup cake was. The drive through here is pretty fast even when it is National Donut Day! And their staff are always really friendly, helpful and quick.
(4)Jen E.
okay so when KK came to Oregon I couldnt understand why everyone was all atwitter over glazed doughnuts. Then I was dragged to the store right after they finished a batch. I was first impressed that you got to see how they were made. Then I was handed a hot..... I do mean hot out of the oil doughnut.... I took a bite..... I swear... my eyes got 10 times bigger and became all pupil. My heart may have grown 3 sizes and I was hooked on the sugary crack puffed air that was in my hand. I did not know how I HAVE LIVED BEFORE THIS DOUGHNUT. and was saddened when it was gone. I am positive it is coated in and baked with a special kind of crack. Seriously my gods this was heaven.... I ate a bit of heaven..... then I proceeded to run in circles for hours. I may have been banished from several friends houses since I couldnt stay still or anything. The sugar had hit me and I was an instantly on the ceiling. I now only go here once or twice a year as my body can only handle that kind of onslaught that much. I have tried their other treats that they have and while they are okay.... nothing to write home about or make me turn into a kitten on crack.
(4)Jyoti N.
Loved the hot donut! Yummm..
(5)Ron T.
One of the decent donut places here in the metro area. I'm quite far from Voodoo donuts. as the advice for alcohol dirnkers: drink responsibly. this should have labels as well. Dear Fatty: EAT MODERATELY. sweet, soft, melt in your mouth kind of donuts. the price is not bad either. they often serve you with a fresh donut.
(4)Jen K.
0 grams Trans Fat. Does that make it alright? I have a really nice co-worker and the ladies in the office have told him that part of his job is to keep his office stocked with chocolate. You see if the chocolate is in his office, that means that we will (slightly) hesitate before eating it. I know this drives you guys crazy. "Honey, I don't want dessert (or substitute fries or any other delicious thing), you get some and I'll just have a bite." Then, of course it arrives and it is sooo good, so we might take more than one bite. :-) Well, today he went overboard and brought in two dozen Krispy Kremes. And like the crazy women we are, we both loved and hated him for his generosity. Sometimes a guy just can't win. I've never gone to a store myself, but when they are lurking on the coffee bar, I am helpless to resist. I am a maple bar kind of girl, so the maple iced glazed is my personal favorite. I also smile at the memory of the countdown a few years ago when Oregon finally got its first store. Before we had a Krispy Kreme in Oregon, a coworker flew home from Mobile, Alabama with a few dozen Krispy Kremes and she brought them into the office that afternoon. I think it would have been exquisite torture sitting next to her on that flight. :-)
(4)Brandi W.
I absolutely refuse to eat here! Ok, I absolutely refuse to eat here unless I have worked out that day! Hmm, not enough. I absolutely refuse to eat here unless I just finished a 15 mile hike and burned at least 2000 calories!! Yep, that's about right. These aren't doughnuts, so please stop comparing them to voodoo, Doughnut Queen/King, whatever, etc. Yeah, I know the word doughnut is in their name, but really this is just heavily iced cake. You have absolutely GOT to have a big sweet tooth to enjoy these. And if you do, then it is virtually impossible not to love the damn things. So don't even try to go there and get the little, dinky half dozen pack cuz that don't fly. My only issue with this location is that when I get the iced cream filled (I have a SUPER big sweet tooth), they have been inconsistent with the amount of cream inside. So I make sure to order some standard iced doughnuts as part of my 3 dozen just in case...
(5)Bill S.
Extremely generic place. Safeway actually has better donuts and coffee. I go here since I don't have to get out of my car in the morning and share my morning hair.
(2)Sam W.
These aren't the worst donuts in the world (prepackaged Fred Meyer donuts), but they're certainly not the best (see Donut Day). These had been hyped up so much, before it opened, that when we finally got this Krispy Kreme, it did not live up to expectations. The only time they exceed mediocre is when they are hot off the line. If you're really jonesing for a donut, try your local shop: Aloha/Beaverton: Donut Day Ralleigh Hills/Beaverton: Sesame Donut Downtown PDX: Voodoo Northeast: Staccato Gelato (they serve donuts and gelato!) I'm sure there are other good local shops, too... I'm just not well traveled enough to know of them.
(3)Matt W.
I remember years before we had any in Portland, a client of mine would bring we boxes of glazed donuts back from her business trips to Seattle. Man they were good! Went this morning and got a dozen of mixed and most were really good. Yum!
(4)Walnut A.
Best donuts ever! Reasonably priced. Yum
(5)Chris H.
Krispy Kreame. What can I say? Good place to get good doughnuts. You have to go in when the light is on to get then nice, hot and fresh. You walk in and are presented with pictures on the walls of Krispy Cream in his baby and childhood years. Walk in the second set of doors and are presented with a large glass wall showing the kitchen. One great thing about this is you can watch them make the doughnuts. Lots of seating and if your not a coffee drinker they do have other choices such as juices, soda and tea.
(4)Jennifer T.
As it goes with so many places that start out fantastic, over time the quality has suffered. Sometimes the donut oil is rancid, pure and simple. You can taste it and smell it inside the store. Not every time, and I am a fool to say these are not good donuts - but as I experience other donuts, my rating says it all: Meh, I've experienced better.
(2)Kyle R.
Average Krispy Kreme location. Their doughnuts taste the same at every Krispy location I've ever been to, so there is not much to review, in regards to this particular location. The parking is strange, and its hard to get out of there, if you're trying to get back onto 26. And personally, to get any true Krispy Kreme experience, one must not drive thru -- as everyone should be forced to enter the store themselves -- to pick out their assorted dozen.
(3)Sam R.
For manufactured doughnuts they are okay. Might as well save time and money by going to the grocery store. Coffee is drinkable but with enough cream and sugar anything can be gulped down. If jonesing for a doughnut it's a fix. Basically the doughnuts are sugar threatened with flour. Great place to take kids to wind them up on a sugar high.
(1)Maggie A.
I'm not in on the whole thing about how these are the best donuts ever, but they are pretty good and are different from others. The Original Glazed really is pretty special when you get to have it fresh enough that it's still hot. Not many donut places offer you that. The coffee is actually pretty tasty and you can get things like lattes and mochas, so that's an extra star out of the gate. They have a drive through, but it's very worth at least one visit inside to watch the conveyor belt if you never have. I have mixed thoughts about watching the donuts move along on the conveyor belt under the descending sheet of glaze. While it's very, very cool to watch and at first gets me hungry for donuts, if I watch too long, it starts to fall under the TMI about food category (kind of like how knowing what's in a hot dog can ruin one if you let it) because it starts to look almost too sickeningly sweet to actually want to put much of that in your body. Not that it stops me. If you have kids that have never been to Krispy Kreme, the conveyor belt should be as much of a hit as the donuts.
(4)eshwar k.
when that "hot donuts now" sign is lit i fly off the highway. and no don't go to the drive thru. you have to see the donuts coming around the belt and catch the aroma to get the total experience. if i were a krispy kreme donut dealer i would easily fail the golden rule "never eat your own supply"..

All I can say is I know I'm depressed when I find myself here. The Doughnuts are good yes. But please for the love stop handing out cold old doughnuts. A few years ago that didn't happen as much. Please turn your HOT doughnuts sign on again :) maybe not enough people go here anymore. Btw, getting out of the parking lot if you have to turn left is a joke.

damn this place for being literally across the street from 24 hour fitness. while i'm driving by, the aroma of sweet warm donuts lurk through my vents and tell me "hey fatty you dont need to go to the gym today, have a donut." especially when the "hot and fresh" sign or whatever the heck is says is turned on, it only means theres a free fresh hot donut waiting for me on top of the dozen i would've planned to buy if i stepped in. but its too bad i don't have a strong sweeth tooth. the sweet smell in the air is already enough for me.. Everytime i take my first bite into that sweet warm original glazed, i swear my teeth are about to fall out. but that's just me. but for all you sweet lovin' homer simpsons out there, they are open until midnight, so hurry up and get it! and its good entertainment for kids, they can get a free hat at the end of the line.
