Outstanding Delicious Donuts... My friend had told me how good these donuts are and brought me a couple of glaze back to Texas from Louisiana... 10 hours later they were still fresh and delicious... Have to get a couple of King Cakes next year... and a dozen glaze...

Kolaches are not good. King cake good, donuts good. Kind of afraid to try other menu items after having kolaches

If you place an order they wont let you know they are out of an item they will just replace it with whatever kind of donut and charge you the same amount. Also the kolaches were the WORST. PS .Ive never encountered kolaches that I didnt like, so this was a first πŸ₯‡ .

Very disappointed. This is the only donut place that I get my donuts from because they advertise hot donuts before 8am and they normally melt in your mouth. I ordered a dozen donuts, two sausage kolache and two bacon croissants for the kids. I even asked the young lady if they were hot and she said yes. The donuts were not even warm and croissants were hard as a rock. The only thing that tasted like it should was the sausage Kolache. Very sad at this experience.

OMG - the best donuts Ive had in a very long time (since Southern Maid in Shreveport)! We were passing through early on a crabbing trip and they were the only thing open - what a great opportunity! Oh, and the boudin kolaches were wonderful with the best baked dough!!! Next time I pass through Ill be heading there intentionally.

THE ABSOLUTE BEST GLAZED DONUTS IN LAKE CHARLES!!! I love baked goods and donuts are at the top of that list. I’ve noticed that some of the shops in LC have a sort of generic donut. It’s very cheap and not memorable. But I assure you, when you bite into these warm, soft, and sweet delights..Mmmmm:)...you won’t be sorry...the customer service could be allot better but it’s not horrible.

We have been to this place 3 times and every time we got old donuts. My husband got a kolache that was 3 long and the dough wasnt even cooked! This place is nasty. Youd be better off going to the one further down the road on 171/MLK... Their stuff is always fresh

Review β„–51

Rudest people in the service industry. They wont help you at the walk up window if there are people in the drive thru. Then after waiting several minutes while they just look at you through the glass, you walk back to your vehicle and they ask if you want something, you tell them no not anymore and they laugh. I guess the owner thinks its funny he is paying them to laugh at the customers while the donut case is still full of donuts at 10a!!!!
