Not like it used to be customer service and kolaches, it's really gone down in 2026. I only stop by because it's literally blocks away from my job so I'll pick up a few for my coworkers. The two times I've gone I've had to repeat myself not to heat them up because when they do the bread tastes like rubber later but they are two busy talking among themselves to listen . The two women at the counter now aren't as pleasant as the men that used to work the counter . Not sure if they changed the recipe towards their kolaches but if you don't eat it at that moment the texture is real tuff to eat later. Please bring the young man back that attended to everyone with a smile and made sure the customers were taken care of in a timely manner

Friendly neighborhood shop with good donuts and Chappell Hill sausage (the best) kolaches! This is the only place I’ve found them inside the loop.

finally tried this place after passing by million times. im not much of a donut person but this spot was highly recommended when i was searching for delicious kolache. i always see lines of people in the morning here.!
anyways, walked in, they had a whole menu but it was confusing. i wish the menu was written on the glass window with simple $. i wasnt sure what to order so i just got the mini donuts, strawberry/chocolate/vanilla donuts one each and sausage kolache.
the kolache was super simple which it was a bit of a let down. the kolache bun was good but i was expecting for it to be a breakfast type kolache where it will fill you up. i think all the kolaches they have are really basic,. so i dont think im gonna get that again.
the flavored donuts were good and i loved the mini donuts! i liked how they werent overly sweet. that was a big plus for me. and the overall pricing was reasonable.

The only place that I can say is better than Shipley donuts. Shipley used to be the best but they lack consistency. Christie’s is great. My favorite is glazed.
I’ve driven by this place so many times, and with all the high reviews online, I figured, why not finally give it a try?
I love checking out new donut shops, and it’s usually either a hit or a miss. Unfortunately, this one was a big miss for me.
I got an old-fashioned donut with chocolate icing and a cinnamon twist, while my girlfriend went with a regular chocolate-iced donut. They also threw in a few donut holes for free, which was a nice touch.
Right away, the old-fashioned donut was extremely dry. Felt like I needed a sip of water with every bite. From there, things didn’t improve much. The cinnamon twist and the regular chocolate donut were also dry and lacking flavor, and even the donut holes had a strange taste.
Overall, it was edible, but not enjoyable. I unfortunately had to throw away what wasn’t eaten which I hate having to do.
Unfortunately would not come back here.

Busy with a line out the door but totally worth it. Excellent standard donut options!
