They are not only beautiful but oh so delicious! Such a great shop to pick up b-fast! My husband says they are the best donuts he has ever tasted.

I think better than the mainstream donut places and they are now also adding some creative treats to the menu! Mom and pop feel and service that deserves frequent visits! On a sad note though they stopped doing free bag of donut holes with every dozen purchased (Im sure bc of the costs rising lately).

Was looking for small breakfast, but not the major fast food. This was perfect! Kolaches, croissants with egg bacon/sausage. The donuts were good too

I love Instant Donuts. The staff are always amazingly friendly. The donuts are soft and fluffy. My personal favorites are the blue iced with sprinkles and the rainbow cloud donuts. The kolaches are fresh and tasty too. They have small and large sizes, with and without cheese. The Croissants are flaky and warm. Come give this locally owned business a shot!

A small mom and pop ran donut shop that offers good varieties of donuts and priced accordingly. This is our go-to donut place and has been for the last few years. The owners are very courteous and you can see their kids well behaved playing in one of the corner tables while their parents run the business.

Friendly employees greet you upon entering the business and the aroma of the donuts is pleasant. A large selection of donuts and breakfast food, a variety of kolaches, along with beverages to complete your order.

We normally go about 10:30 and theyre already running out of donuts and muffins.The glazed donut after taste I did not care for it all.They have beautiful croissant sandwiches. But when I heated them up the croissant tasted like cardboard.My family likes the kolaches. Because they use eckrich sausage.

I enjoyed the pastries (muffins specifically) more than the kolaches, which were pretty average. Still, they have good prices, a polite staff, and its always good to support a local business.

First time in this little shop of goodness. Ordered apple fritter, bear claw and cinnamon roll. They were awesome made fresh daily. Better than any big chain donut shop. This is now my to go place for donuts and sweets.

Review №28

All I can say is A BIG WOW with this little gem of 🍩s I try not come here to often because Ill buy all the 🍩. They make them so fluffy its like eating a cloud or piece of heaven. Dont even talk about the croissants stuffed with ham and Swiss cheese. Off the hook. When you are in the area stop by.

Jo
Review №29

Has decent food, very fast service, and is open early enough for me to be able to squeeze a visit into my morning routine without issue. The only possible downside I see is that theres a $4 purchase minimum to use a card. While its very understandable for small businesses, it does make it a little awkward if you are just buying stuff for yourself. I usually just keep the extra donut or kolache as a snack for a couple hours later. Overall, I would recommend it, especially if you live nearby.

Why do I love this place?Hmmm, let me see.First of all, it is Always Clean.B. I have never had to wait for service, but that may be because of my uncanny ability to see an almost always available parking spot.Thirdly. If they dont have what I came in for, I ask if they have it in the oven. If the answer is yes, Ill wait. If NO, then I pick from my long list of plan B!And forth of all---You cant beat the price OR the taste. Check out the menu in the picture.One drawback of this hidden gem is the one person/unisex bathroom, but like I said, no crowds!

Review №32

I love this place! Clean, super friendly, hard working staff, and I know they have store hours but sometimes they’ll stay open a little later to get rid of the days donuts and I personally think that’s amazing. They’re not reusing food from the day before. It’s all fresh and they want you to have it the day it’s made! Totally worth the trip even after google says they’re closed haha.

Review №33

Good standard donut shop, they offer all kinds of breakfast tacos and sandwiches too. Just wish there was more variety in the donuts. And wish the fillings were homemade. More unique offerings would make this an awesome place.

Review №42

We LOVE the fresh doughnuts and baked goods here!!! Our #1 fave are the ginormous housemade sausage-jalapeno-cheddar-croissants that they offer to heat up for you on the spot so you can eat it up while picking out other goodies, LOL!!! Everything is made daily, nothing old or left over or stale. In fact, the owner made 2 fresh Long Johns right in front of us this past week. We watched him fry the dough, fill it with cream then coat the top with the chocolate ganache topping!!! In our opinion better than a chain place like Dunkin Doughnuts. The male owner is also customer service pro....he can juggle multiple customers in line while running to back to flip doughnuts in fryer, coat them, heat kolaches or croissants up in microwave....then ring up customers in checkout. I get exhausted just watching him but what makes this place stand out/apart from other doughnut shops!!!

Review №49

Horrible customer service. My 5 year old son was trying to decide which donut he wanted. Nobody else in line to note. The gentleman was pressuring him to make a decision by repeating himself 3 times what donut does he want? I told him that he was deciding and to give him a minute. Bought 2 donuts and will never return. Sticking with Shipleys.

I have to share this amazing gem of a place off Judson just north of Stahl. Its called Instant Donuts. Theyre a locally owned business with the best tasting donuts Ive ever had. The owners are so courteous and friendly. They always greet us with a smile. My go-to place was Krispy Kreme, however, this place has them beat by a mile! I always had trouble heating up Krispy Kreme donuts the next day... they never tasted the same and, no matter how fresh they were, they always left my palate greasy. We always regretted eating them afterwards. Not the case with Instant Donuts. Theyre made fresh every morning, much tastier than Krispy Kreme, and no greasy film in your mouth! The best part is that a dozen donuts is less than 10 bucks, and with the purchase of a dozen donuts you get free bag of donut holes! How awesome is that? Better taste, better price, and they taste great the next day. Ill no longer regret buying dozen donuts because I know that theyll be just as good the next day. Bye-bye Krispy Kreme... hello and welcome to my life Instant Donuts! They also have yummy breakfast croissant sandwiches, kolaches, and tacos... Im just hung up on the donuts. So everyone, lets support our local businesses. Go and treat yourself to heaven on earth... eat a donut (bear claw, eclair, cinnamon roll, jelly donut)...or two 😉!

Carbs are the devil. When I avoid carbs, I stay lean and mean. Cant live without these delicious carbs though. The donuts are AWESOME. I keep reading these reviews about the other treats they offer so next carb binge I might give them a try as well. The staff is always extremely friendly, professional, and most of all...PATIENT! When you get up to the counter and you see everything, you instantly forget what you wanted because everything looks amazing. I dont usually Google review, but my last visit just astounded me. Not because of everything I said above, but also the other customers. I havent run into one rude customer there. Customers with kids keep their kids in check. People are smiling and holding the door for others, saying good morning. Sometimes I think I just step into another world when I go there. Makes it so much harder to drive by when I am in carb avoidance mode. :) Anyways, back on topic - THIS is what donuts are supposed to taste like. Try it, youll see what I mean.
