Shipley Do-Nuts is a fantastic spot for donut lovers, and my recent visit left me quite impressed. From the moment I walked in, the welcoming aroma of freshly made donuts filled the air. The variety on offer is one of Shipley’s standout features—whether you're craving a classic glazed, a filled donut, or even a kolache, there’s something for everyone.
The glazed donuts are my personal favorite. They have the perfect balance of sweetness without being overpowering. They’re light, fluffy, and almost melt in your mouth. I also tried their apple fritters and was equally delighted. The fritter had just the right amount of crunch on the outside while remaining soft and flavorful on the inside.
What I particularly appreciated was the freshness of everything. You can tell that the donuts are made in small batches, ensuring that they’re always warm and soft when served. It makes a huge difference compared to places where the donuts sit out for hours.
Their coffee, while not the main attraction, is a solid addition to the experience. It pairs well with the donuts and is reasonably priced. The service was also quite good—the staff were friendly, efficient, and made sure the line moved quickly.
If I had to find a downside, it would be that the selection can sometimes run low if you go later in the day, which is understandable given their popularity. I’d recommend visiting earlier to get the best variety.
Overall, Shipley Do-Nuts offers an enjoyable experience for anyone looking for fresh, tasty donuts at a reasonable price. It’s not gourmet, but it doesn’t need to be. It’s simple, delicious, and hits the spot. Four stars from me!
Quick, efficient service. Yummy food.

I went to the drive through on Sunday morning and waited 15 minutes in the line. That wasn’t an issue for me but when I got to the window I ordered a dozen donuts and the lady insisted on me getting down and going to the front counter to order. She made me park and go inside to order after I had waited 15 minutes in the drive though line. I didn’t want to get down that’s why I had originally gone on drive though but this lady gave me no option, she said that if I ordered in person I could see the donuts they had because they didn’t have that many flavors left. When I went inside and ordered they had most of the donuts. I was really annoyed because i waited in the drive through line for nothing just to be forced to go inside and order. Not to mention when I got inside I still had to wait in line to get my order taken. This employee ruined my experience today.

My dad has been going to this Shipley’s for a coffee and a doughnut almost every day for the last 5000 years. Or at least 30. Maybe more. The staff has been consistently amazing and he’s watched some of them grow up there. This place, not only supports. The community is respectful and kind to its patron, and always treats my dad like a rockstar. They noticed when he doesn’t come in and they ask how everything is going. it’s hard to find businesses like this anymore. Well done, Shipleys!

This location gives out ice cold donuts in the morning so if you are ordering delivery expect to get frozen donuts ?

BEST KOLACHES EVER!!!, I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THIS SHIPLEYS SINCE I WAS YOUNGER BACK WHEN THEY WERE LOCATED OVER AT 1829 BINGLE RD <3 THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS JUST AMAZING! & THE LADIES ARE ALWAYS SO NICE!(= PLEASE DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS, SOME CUSTOMERS ARE AWFULLY RUDE AND UNPLEASANT(I'VE SEEN IT) THEY HAVE NO PATIENCE OR WHATSOVER. I'M SURE ANY ISSUE CAN BE SOLVED, DON'T BE RUDE ABOUT IT & WAKE UP EARLY!!! DON'T BLAME OTHERS FOR HAVING A BAD MORNING. THERE ARE SO MANY HARDWORKING PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN SERVING THERE FOR YEARS SO THEY SURE KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING (=
Today I went and they gave me some raw, doughy colaches, the dough should check what they sell because we also got sick because they were really very raw.

Was told there were no doughnuts. At a donut place! Make it make sense. I don’t know if this location stops making donuts at a certain time or what but it was 3pm decided to stop by since I was craving Shipleys. I usually only go to the one on Ella where they are always hot and fresh but I was here so the lady attending the drive thru starts talking to me in Spanish. I am Latino but my Spanish isn’t that good and I say a lot of words wrong and did not know how to say glazed in Spanish so I asked for glazed donuts in English. Now I don’t know if she got mad because I spoke in English to her but she told me there were no donuts. In a donut place! Will never come back to this location. I will remain loyal to the Ella location.
Soggy donuts. Always soggy donuts.
The kolaches are very delicious
Even at 5 am when I go in there to get a couple of donuts. I ask if they are hot and fresh and they say yes when I get in my car and on the road they are very cold. I will go th the location on 43 rd instead of this location because there donuts are always hit and fresh the bingle location was better and they where hot and fresh when I asked not at lounge point location it seems service has just gotten very poor
Great service, delicious donuts, and those kolaches are so good! ?They have a couple of small tables to dine on and an actual half-and-half for your coffee instead of the powder junk.This was my first time visiting this Shipley and it won't be the last. Yum!
