Ok, seriously, how could a Krispy Kreme experience go bad. Unless you somehow manage to miss your mouth or accidentally hurl it across the room because of all the excitement.

Mmmm...Donuts.... 7/28/2008

Krispy Kreme donuts are competitive in taste, but not in price. To save face they cannot lower their prices, now that the rave over their donuts has subsided in this region--but hopefully they won't raise them too. This chain is still unique in that they sell nostalgic toys to commemorate an era and the esthetics of their donut shop surpasses their competition. Known for their glazed donuts, these are still mouth-watering and still worth the addition to your dozen. One thing they could definitely improve on, is their lack of friendliness at the Drive Thru window. I get a more cheery reception at a McD's drive thru. Pros: Atmosphere of store Cons: Service can be aloof more

Great for a late night snack 3/14/2008

If you ever feel the need for a late night snack head over to Krispy Kreme and get a dozen of the original glazed donuts. Then pick up a gallon of milk to help wash them down. My daughter loves to watch them making the donuts, great place to take the kids. Pros: fast service Cons: lots of calories more

(I) Don't forget the hype 3/28/2007

Remember the hype surrounding Krispy Kreme's entry into the Seattle area? This Issaquah doughnut shop was fast the most popular place in town. There were lines out of the drive-thru such that police were there and the place was coned off to direct traffic and inside there were lines wrapping all over the place. Now, admittedly, standing in the shop watching the doughnuts get made and iced is really interesting, but apparently this shop was not quite worth the hype after all. The doughnuts are pretty good. I don't think they're really outstanding. A warm original glazed doughnut is pretty good and nearly melts in your mouth, but meh... They're ok. The lines are all gone and there's plenty of other Krispy Kremes in the Seattle area so eat up if you like doughnuts, or better yet, visit Top P0t. Pros: Doughnuts for a doughnut fan... The long lines are gone. Cons: The long lines are gone because the doughnuts aren't really worth waiting an hour in line for. more

Krispy Kreme Doughnuts 1/5/2007

Leave the doughnuts alone! Be angry at the people who tag our streets and rip off our community. They're just donuts! I'm sure everyone has their favorite. You don't go to K.K. for Maple Bars or Apple Friter's! You go for the experience of watching the dounts being made. The Flipper, Waterfall of Glaze and the smell of Fresh, Hot, Sugarery Delights. I bring my day care kids there for an extra special treat. They love it! Ask ahead of time and they will give you a one on one tour with your group. How cool! Where else can you go and do that? So don't hate....enjoy! We go to the Krispy Kreme in Industry, Calif. They have always been nice and it is always clean. Pros: Fun, unique and yummy! Cons: They go to fast. Charge to eat inside. more

What's so Krispy about Kreme? 3/21/2006

Partially hydrogenated oils stay in your body for six weeks. We have known this as a society for over 20 years now. Yet KK still uses them in their doughnuts. That should tell you how they feel about their customers-they only care about the profits. Quality is NOT important at this establishment. Pros: Fast, Cheap, Pre-Packaged Cons: Fast!, Cheap!, Pre-Packaged! more

Krispy Kreme rocks 8/23/2003

they have the best glazed donuts I have ever eaten. hands down the best. these dounts are so good it's hard to describe in words. trust me on this one. Krispy Kreme is no longer a secret so this info isn't really groundbreaking. but do yourself a favor and try their donuts. I also enjoy their Iced Coffee Pros: glazed donuts, Iced Coffee more

The most over-hyped eatery in the West 4/10/2003

Perhaps the most overrated place in town. I really can't understand how absolutely nuts people in the West go over Krispy Kreme. Their donuts are mediocre but the hype is downright nauseating! All I can say is that Krispy Kreme seems to have had one of the most successful marketting campaigns in recent history -- manufacturing a sensation from mediocre donuts. I'd rather go to my local donut shop down on Rainier, or Top Pot on Capitol Hill or the crazy little donut stand in Pike Market. Cons: over-hyped, mediocre donuts more

Sugar coma, ahoy! 2/10/2003

KK is a different breed of donut - lovingly wrapped in an icing ascot, flaunting their deliciousness to the Dunkin' Donus set. These are not supermarket donuts. They're best when hot. You'll usually get a free one in line. The retro feel is great. Their interior designers and architects did a bang up job. Bring the kids inside to oogle the donutted conveyor belt through the glass and watch these beauties be created before your eyes. Or swing through the drive-thru on your way to the gym. Pros: Yum more

What's the fuss? 2/8/2003

I was very disappointed by my first encounters with Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. I was not impressed. I have to think thatpeople are buying into the myth, not buying the product. I have had doughnuts of comparable quality from my local Safeway. more

Krappy Kreme 1/9/2003

Now I enjoy a donut just as much as the next Seattlite, but honestly, can you call this a donut. The ever-popular Krispy Kreme donut has invaded the Pacific Northwest. I cannot imagine why in this highly competitive day-in-age, a company can survive while making such a crappy product. The donut that this company puts forth has no structure (it flops right over in your hand), horrible taste (I became naucious), and I had to drive to frikin' Issaquah to taste it. No offense to those in Issaquah, but living in Federal Way, I was expecting a little more for the trip up there. Anyways, I'll stick to my south Sound donuts and hopefully you guys up north get it right before I make another trip. Pros: DONUTS, DONUTS, DONUTS Cons: MILK, COFFEE more

No accounting for (bad) taste 12/25/2002

While you're scratching your head and trying to figure out what the big hype is about--- consider this: these same polls say Dick's has the best hamburgers, Pizza Hut has the best pizza, and the Old Spaghetti Factory has great food. Almost ANY mom-and-pop donut store in California has better donuts than this (no, I'm not from California). I grew up in the South, ate these for years. Everyone there knows the only time to eat these is at 3am when you're full of beer. Any other time, they're so full of fat and sugar, they'll make you hurl. Pros: open at 3am, absorbs beer Cons: too sweet, too expensive, too greasy more

Best doughnuts ever! 12/13/2002

Kripy Kreme's are the only doughnut worth driving 40 miles out of my way to buy. My comment on every single other doughnut is ""Well, it ain't bad, but's it's no Krispy Kreme!"". Pros: Best Doughnuts Cons: Too far away, Not enough stores, Long lines sometimes more

Disgusting goo 12/6/2002

a Krispy Kreme doughnut is a undercooked piece of dough that would have been better used for playdough. There is nothing about them that is appealing. over priced undercooked ball of mush more

Stock and Donut Hype 11/27/2002

Way over rated donuts. Yes, its nice to get them warm, but after they cool off they are no comparison to good local donut shops. Pros: near where I work Cons: crowded, hyped more

No way 11/27/2002

Krispy Kreme is not the best! If you have ever had auburn donuts, you'd change your mind quick, theyre cheaper and have more varieties and they taste better! Cons: Expensive, no variety more
