I got two bear claws and two maple bars and it was $11. Donuts were doughy and under cooked.

My first Kolby’s review was about four years ago, and they’re still hands-down my favorite doughnut spot. I’ve tested it a few times by bringing other brands—like Krispy Kreme—to work, and those boxes always seem to sit there half-eaten. But whenever I bring Kolby’s, the doughnuts disappear fast, and people are constantly asking where I got them. It got to the point where I started leaving their business card next to the box.
I usually swing by not long after they open in the morning. The staff is always friendly—99% of the time Monita is behind the counter, and she’s the best. Their doughnuts are consistently fresh, and my personal favorite is the peanut-butter-and-jelly claw.
The reason I’m updating my review is because of TikTok. I saw someone rave about their breakfast sandwiches and realized that after all these years I’d never tried anything but the doughnuts. I finally ordered the egg, ham, bacon, and cheese sandwich—and now I might be making more trips just for that. It was so good… easily a 10/10.
If you’re looking for incredible doughnuts (or a surprisingly amazing breakfast sandwich), I highly recommend Kolby’s Donut House.

The donuts are super soft and tender, and melt in your mouth. My favorites are the maple bars and chocolate frosted raised donuts. They are big, too!
Sooooo YUMMY!

I've gone here more than a few times in the last 5 years since it's the closest doughnut place to me, but the convenience just isn't worth the low quality and value. The staff is friendly enough, no complaints there. At least half the time their fritters are undercooked, and just raw dough in the middle. A few days ago I was craving a jelly filled doughnut, so I bought 2.
There was literally only enough filling to color the hole they poked in it. Both of them were like this, and raw dough in the middle. I felt robbed, but my dogs liked them. Luckily, Frank's Donuts is 2 minutes further up the street. I've learned my lesson. I'm done with Kolby's.
