I like Dunkin (I know blasphemy). They have the BEST coffee of any fast food place. There donuts are better than average.
Obviously it’s not Shipley’s but I can eat one in a pinch.
I would not eat KK donuts even if they are free. Too damn sweet and no matter how fresh, they have a store bought texture to them. I would rather eat donuts from Kroger or the local Panaderia.
Try not to eat too many pastries bad for the spare tire in the middle. Shipley is my go to when I get that craving. They use to make a chocolate cover donut back in 70’s when I first got turned on to them by a college roommate that taste like they had bourbon in the icing. My roommate like to drink, that’s why he was a fan of them.
They still pack in around 30 donut holes in the bag when you order a dozen. A neighborhood classic. A great owner as well who really supports the area. Couldn’t be happier about this new relationship!
Other than coffee. Why Shipley’s is still serving the equivalent of sanka is just bizarre. Straight up dirty water. But when it comes to everything else, Shipley’s is way better than Dunkin.
Go the Shipley’s off Ella an 610. They are making glazed around the clock. Nothing like driving back to Dallas after a game with a dozen glazed that are so warm the glaze is still melting off. AND – they melt before you start chewing!! And, for a bonus, their cinnamon roles are also fantastic! Has to be the best Shipley’s in Houston area.
