Wawa coffee rolls are the best! Between the 2, I prefer Dunkin'. Landhope and royal farms sell kk but they are puney, and have no 'donut' flavor. To me they taste way too chemical. I never knew what all the hype was with them. Then again I prefer a plain ole glazed donut over most others.

If I'm going to eat a donut, I want a Krispy Kreme. Plain.

KK are small and DD hasn’t had much selection in years.


The Wawa apple fritter is good with a 22oz. Coffee, but a little to big for me.

Not healthy...true! Every other weekend I make breakfast at home, every other Sunday, is a treat of a donut and coffee, or breakfast sandwich and coffee, so don’t get a donut that often.

I'm diabetic, so donuts aren't on my diet any longer, but if you're ever in Erie PA there's a local place called Mighty Fine Donuts, and another local donut shop called H & K Donuts. I grew up in Erie and lived there until I was 47 and consumed quite a few from both places until In my early 40s I was diagnosed with diabetes.

I'm going to say Mighty Fine was probably my first, with H & K a close second, KK & DD not even close to either of the aforementioned. I almost forgot another place called, Jack Frost donuts, All local, and all good.

Dunkin PR attorneys contacted me. I am not allowed to praise them again, unless I spell more correctly. Super One food store here in Kalispell has amazing glazed and I just ate one.

KK all the way, especially when still warm. Dunkin is second, then Tim Hortons. Locally I like Buckeye Donuts.

I have never met a donut I did not like, there are different flavors and breads but a donut is a donut. Here we have Dunkin, Lamars, KK and the donut haus and would not turn down any of them. Just like a cookie, some are better than others but give me some cookies and milk.

often an old fashioned bakery's donuts are best, but for any chains, or dedicated donut business, Krispy Kreme is my all time favorite.

I love how you can see them being made... for me at least, it adds to the atmosphere, and fun of going there... free samples don't hurt either

Unfortunately KK pulled up shop and left my city years ago (maybe five years ago?) - so the closest KK that I have gone to is a brief eight hour one-way drive in Spokane
I believe that the KK in Kalispell Montana is closer, but I have never been there, so that's a rather moot point.

Neither one really appeals to me. My local Vietnamese bakery has terrific donuts and maple bars.
