They forget to put half my order in the bag and so when I remind them, they then charge me credit card fee because it didn’t meet the $10. Even though they made the mistake and the order was already over $10.

Is there only like one or two people constantly busy and don’t pay attention

If you like Krispy Kreme you'll like their style of donuts. Price was really good as well especially considering the neighborhood of Burlingame. The ladies at the front counter were friendly and nice. I went on a Saturday morning when the cases were well stocked and the donuts tasted fresh.

Used to live close by, now I will travel across town for their cronuts, best on peninsula that I've found. Bahnmi sandwiches just are an added reason to go here

This is one of the worst donut shops I have ever been to in my life. I went on a Tuesday night at 10 pm so sure, maybe not the best time to go. I was hungry and theres almost nothing to eat at this time of day in that neighborhood. The case was almost empty. The option was a glazed donut more or less. I asked for a ham and cheese croissant because that is what appeared to be left in the case. The guy sold me a ham egg and cheese which I only realized when I was down the street driving away. If I knew there was egg in it, I wouldn’t have bought it because who knows how long this stuff had been sitting there. I feel sick to my stomach and there’s a film in my mouth. I saw they had a raised chocolate bar on the bottom case and a single maple egg donut. Both were stale, old, and flavorless. Such a let down. I payed $15 for an apple juice basically. On the way out the guy made a joke, “call me if you need anything.” Yeah, I need a stomach pump and my $15 bucks back. No wonder I heard the guy behind me order a hot dog. He must have known how bad these donuts were. Stay away. Not worth your time or money. I am puzzled by the glowing reviews. My experience was the exact opposite. I almost never post reviews but this was so bad it was notable.

Small donut shop with many choices of donut and coffee. The raisin croissant and double chocolate donut cake are always my favorite.

Donuts range from ~$1 for donut/cronut holes, ~$2 for regular donuts, and ~$3 for more specialty bars and fritters. They serve savory donuts and croissant sandwiches as well.The classic glazed/raised donut was pretty good. It's less yeasty but more buttery than other glazed donuts I've tried. It's pretty light and fluffy.The cronut holes look a little sad/lopsided and they're really sweet. They're also somewhat greasy or buttery on the inside despite not having been fresh out of the oven (at the time I tried it).There are extra charges on card purchases under $10. Service was okay but not extraordinarily friendly.

Ok, it’s a donut, but heavy like soaked in oil. I think I would pass.
