Krispy Kreme Doughnuts

I was very, very bad bad girl and by bad I mean a girl who ate a glazed AND maple glazed donut with so little shame. Why are Krispy Kreme donuts so dang good… why???
Also those less than stellar ratings and reviews must be due to long lines because the donuts here are the jam.

Meh. Donut Country in Medford blows this place away, except for the donut machine which is fun to watch.

It’s Krispy Kreme, duh! LOVE walking in there to see hot donuts being fried and glazed moving along the conveyor belt. The employees have always been friendly too!

Super sweet donuts!
Seriously, the donuts are super super sweet, so if that’s your thing, you will LOVE these donuts. I didn’t find them particularly greasy, dry, crispy, soggy, or anything else, the one and only defining characteristic is SWEET.
They are fluffy, and flavorful, excepting the cake donuts, which are cakey but not too heavy– still slightly light in a cake sort of way.
No, they aren’t wild and crazy like VD or BS, but these are very good donuts. They have chocolate, white, maple, and sometimes a cookies and crème frosting. There are a few seasonal flavors that come and go, and sometimes they put colorful sprinkles on. That’s about it folks.
The best part about KK is they have a DRIVE THRU! Drive thru donuts! I love me some drive thru sweets!
I do wish they’d go full-​on with their coffee shop offerings though. I don’t drink coffee or dairy, but I love a coconut milk hot chocolate. I would go here 3 times as much if they had my drink.
There are no drive thrus that offer good sweets and good hot drinks, so whoever comes up with the idea that a lot of people in the «green» state get the munchies is going to make a fortune. ;-)

Worst drive thru ever. They regularly have problems making change and always take forever even if you are the only one there. Inside no faster. Only come here if you have lots of time to burn.

A family was having issues with a gift card but the staff patiently addressed the issue. In the interim the family paid for my order as I was waiting behind them. The pleasant and friendly atmosphere at this location is infectious. I will keep coming back!

After dropping my wife off at the Portland Airport, I stopped by this location to get a dozen of original glazed doughnuts. As soon as I ordered, I was told that it would be a few minutes. Of course, I knew that it would be worth the wait. When they brought my doughnuts, I was told that since I had to wait, they would give me an extra doughnut.
That was nice to see that they cared about my time by compensating me for the inconvenience.
I would highly recommend this location.

I love KK. It’s only a love that comes to life like once a year, BUT it’s there nonetheless. I especially have fond memories of this location. To my memory this one is the one KK that has the «hot now» sign most often, and several years back, my family and I used to buy like 8 boxes and drive them up to Canada to share with my cousins/​friends/​etc (before KK moved up to Vancouver).
They are so generous with giving out their hot donuts too and it’s SO delicious when they literally just fried it up like 10 seconds ago, just glazed it and you devour that shit like it’s your last meal. The service is quite good here too, and coffee is good! A plus that they don’t judge you when you buy 8 dozen donuts when you have 4 people in the car.

Clean and large sized location. Krispy kreme doughnuts are my favorite for glazed doughnuts. I’m happy with the original glazed. One doughnut is $ 1.15 and a dozen is $ 10.95. Come when the red light is on outside! It means the doughnuts are fresh.
I liked the doughnuts when they are a little warm. On the box, it says to warm it up for 8 seconds and it really does the trick! The perfect amount of softness.
This location has lots of tables and is well lit. You also see how they make the doughnuts through a glass window which is interesting to watch as a kid, or as an adult!
I rate this place only 4 stars because the doughnuts are kind of pricey compared to other places. Maybe offer some sort of rewards program?

Ok, they are doughnuts. Decent, but honestly, not over the moon awesome. The kids love them for some reason and we were passing nearby and stopped by for a treat.
Awesome thing, this visit I got a military discount. Any place that does that, I really appreciate it.

Good for office meetings
Drive thru

Clean and attractive, smells great! I wish Apple Fritters had been available, but no luck this time. Also no red light, but I don’t think the doughnuts could have tasted much fresher. Appreciated the helpful staff and would love to stop by again when in this area.

Popped in yesterday during our trip through Oregon up to Washington.
The staff were super friendly and patient as we made decisions (We had never been to a Krispy Kreme before!).
While I am admittedly not a donut person, the rest of the fam jam really enjoyed the donuts.
Unfortunately we were not there when the «red light» was on but everything still tasted fresh.
The young man behind the counter let me know that the red light is on at this location from 5 – 8 am and 3−5pm.
The restaurant was CLEAN — beautiful and colourful with an old fashioned twist.
Got some great photos of the kidlets in front of the LARGE glass viewing window area as well as some of those nerdy cute paper hats.
We also tried 2 chillers — the mocha was great but the birthday batter one was sooooo sweet that we actually ended up throwing it away after all 5 of us gave it a try. It was cute and you could see the rainbow confetti/​sprinkles throughout but it was too sweet for us.
All in all, it was a great visit!
PS — They give you a free donut on your birthday!

I have read there are two kinds of people, Those who like the dense cake like donuts, and those who like the light donuts, I like the second and that is what Krispy Kreme sells.
I only stop when the red light is on. You know the light I mean, The neon Hot Fresh Now light.
They are light and airy filled with steam and covered with their sugary glaze. Did i mention cheap? it is hard to beat.
Besides the Original glazed they sell different batters, filled etc not to mention drinks. I only by the original though.
I also sometimes bring a box with me to work, all warm. They go fast.

Been here multiple times and have always had a great experience. This last time was on Free Donut day and the line was long but the wait was worth it.
The store is always clean and the donuts excellent and service good.
Wish we had a Krispy Kreme in Salem.

Small doughnuts for the price. Nothing too special. My wife was hoping for one fresh off the belt, but we settled for some in the case. It’s definitely no Voodoo and honestly I’d rather go to another shop right down the street. Pretty good doughnuts but not really worth the hype.

Even though we’re trying to eat healthy we came here leaving our Foster Care orientation one evening and wanted a warm donut. What we got instead were could donuts that ended up in the trash.
My favorite are maple bars, and until this day Heavenly Donuts has the best in my opinion. Krispy Kremes maple bars are more like a syrup flavor and I definitely am not a fan.
We went through the drive thru and the employees were friendly but we won’t be returning here.
Happy Unilocaling…

My daughter is in love with doughnuts, so reluctantly, we took her here.
I’ve personally had these doughnuts on the job before, and I was never a big fan, but then again, I’m not a big doughnut fan anyways. I thought going in to the store might be better, because I thought they might make them on the spot and be fresh and warm, unlike the ones I eat from time to time at work.
We came in kind of late, maybe around 8pmish, and there was a line. Everytime they brought out fresh doughnuts, it looks like that late at night they might have been made awhile ago, and just sat on a rack. I wasn’t sure, but they sat there in the display case, and by the time we finally got to the front of the line, if they were ever warm, they were no longer warm. Oh well.
The doughnuts were alright. One, the cookie dough doughnut, didn’t taste like cookie dough at all, it just had colored frosting that looked like cookie dough. Don’t get that one. The others were okay, inlcuding the Java doughnut which also didn’t taste like Java. More like chocolate, really.
I think these are doughnuts are alright, but people rave about them, and I’ve had better elsewhere. In a pinch, these will do though.

in terms of reference, this is one of the cleanest Krispy Kreme’s I have been to.
The surrounding area is also nicely manicured.
There is ample parking and a drive through.
& if you’re wanting fresh doughnuts look for the bright neon signs stating so, these little fried pieces of dough are available fresh off the conveyor belt every few hours daily.
2 stars:
as far as taste goes, I am not a fan to the –every doughnut tastes the same game–
Just about every doughnut whether it be seasonal, cake, filled, or decorated is covered in the original over the top sweet glaze, making every doughnut that follows tasting the same.
being the doughnut person that I am, this is a quick fix for a sweet fluffy pastry need, that fix is then masked by guilt «what did I just put in my body?»
They offer hot and cold coffee caffeinated beverages, along with milk and soda.
Nothing artisan about the product or the coffee. however, got a new job site or want to impress the upper management? bring in an assorted dozen and you’ll be a god in the corporate world

Princess (my 11 year old) loves donuts. I’m not super excited that she does. Me, well they taste good sometimes but my tummy, arteries, and hips don’t benefit from them. If I do want a donut occasionally, I like buttermilk bars or old fashioned things Krispy Kreme doesn’t typically have. But this location is on our way to summer camp and close enough that I will cave and get her a couple once in a while.
(Because I’m a nice mom, she is a kid, and you’re only a kid not worrying about arteries for that short tme. Also her diet includes quinoa and artichokes and salmon so I’m not worried about her nutrition so much, well a little, but shes pretty good with her choices).
I like that KK has a drive thru. The women and kids manning it are generally nice and efficient. Their lattes aren’t too bad. They sell milk and juice, which I always buy for Princess whether she wants it or not. During the summer she occasionally gets soft serve ice cream on a cone instead of a donut. Cheap and tasty. They also dip them in chocolate if you are so inclined. Princess and her friends say they are better than dairy queen.
They have cute seasonal donuts (pumpkin spice, pumpkin faces in icing, spider webs on chocolate frosting, Ducks and Beaver colors on sprinkled ones for the civil war, etc) and some coffee cake rounds if you’re not into donuts that aren’t bad. The regular coffee is ok. Nothing special.
Today kiddo did not want to go to breakfast at Golden Valley Brewery with me so I told her if she ate some veggie sausage at home I’d bring her a treat. I swung thru after breakfast and got her donuts.
I earned massive brownie points. She is all smiles.
Tonight she’s eating kale! Its all about balance. Right?;)
