Best donuts in this area are at Harvest Markets a local chain of family owned grocery stores. Only problem is you have to get them early or all the popular flavors are gone.

If you are ever near Hagerstown, Md. you should go by Krumpe's Donuts. They and open at 8PM. Their cinnamon twists are the best!

Krispy Kreme all the way. I'm sick of day old stale Duncan Donuts. The foreigners that run all the Duncan Donuts here don't throw out anything or try to keep them fresh. I've even caught them watering down the coffee a couple of times. I asked out loud why would you do that and then pour someone a cup of coffee? They wouldn't answer but everyone in line left the store. No I didn't make that up, it really happened.

'ol Pinion head... did I just read a Hurts donut? Did someone punch you in the arm? LOL I remember getting them in school.... a punch in the arm, and asked "Hurts doe nit?"

Diabetic and went paleo, lost 60 pounds and no longer need insulin but back when I did have donuts Krispy Cremes or Entemanns chocolate dipped cake donuts.
I miss grains but no more shots or insulin makes it worth not eating them.

HA!

When I went, I was a little too occupied checking out the cars especially one specific GTO... I actually never went inside!
Maybe, if I go again, I'll be a bit more outgoing & talkative, and enjoy a donut or three while there

As a lifelong Bostonian - DD is awful, unless you like crappy coffee, dry muffins from a huge factory and rubber microwaved eggs. I just don't get how people become enamored with a chain like this and go there every day, sometimes multiple times per day!

I used to go to Wawa for my coffee and a chocolate covered donut. The coffee sucks but the donut was good. And now that they raised the price for a 16oz refill to $1.39 I don't go anywhere near the place. Stuff it Wawa, you're a bunch of hogs!

I'll take 7 11's blueberry flavored coffee, 16oz refill, for 99 cents any day of the week. 7th one is free. And until the middle of this month a refill is 50 cents.

Between the 2, I choose KK. That said, there are others I prefer.

I was in your area last November. Business in Lynn, motel in Peabody. I had to leave the motel before their restaurant was open so I was looking for a quick breakfast. With all of the divided roads and limited access, the only place I could get into was a Dunkin' Donuts. And for that I was truly thankful.

Donut was great.
Coffee was average
Breakfast sandwich was sub-standard but was way better than going hungry till lunchtime.

Speaking of donuts, when is Fausnaut Day? My friend makes them. Mmmmm. I think Dunkin makes them, but nothing like homemade, warm out of the fryer with powdered sugar, or jelly.

Tuesday, March 5.
As a PA resident you should already know this. Especially living in the part of the state that you do.

Dunks or Heavenly Donuts, or possibly a Honey Dew.
