Abilene Donuts — Restaurant in Abilene

➡️ Update: The last 2 times we went to this Abilene Donuts place, the shop smelled awful. It was the smell of old, overused, nasty grease. Their donuts also tasted just like the awful smell of old grease and when we got home, that same terrible stench had attached itself to the bottles of milk and juice we had bought there and we could still smell it on the bottles in our fridge 2 days later! I don't see how they haven't noticed this, or realized that changing out that disgusting, smelly, ancient grease is loooong overdue!! This should be done regularly...BEFORE you lose all your customers because the smell makes them gag, even days later. Why aren't you guys regularly changing out the oil that you cook your donuts in? It COULD be the fault of specific or certain lazy employees, but the owner should be checking the business often enough to correct this issue before the reputation of the establishment goes waaay down. I won't be returning for a long time, and if I ever DO return and it smells that horrendous again, it will be the last time I visit. I hope they fix this issue ASAP. It's extremely nauseating and off-putting. I am changing my original 5-star rating to a 1-star rating until this problem is fixed. 🤢👎🏻⬅️ 02/11/21

2️⃣— Tried these guys out one more time by having my husband pick up a couple pastries and bottles of milk. The horrible smell from this establishment was still attached to every item that came into my house. So much so, that I threw out my food and had to scrub the plastic milk bottles in dishwashing soap and water so they didn’t stink up my refrigerator. I don’t understand why this is still an issue. I personally will not be going back, unless I need milk or juice during a disaster and can’t find them anywhere else. I’m sad. 11/04/21 😔😢

ORIGINAL REVIEW: This donut shop is conveniently located on Ambler Ave. in North Abilene. The people who work here are very friendly and a joy to talk to. The donuts are beautiful and delicious. I especially love the apple fritters. 😍 The building is kept very clean and has a great setup. You can eat-in or use their drive-thru window, which is nice when you're short on time or on your way to work. Great prices, too! I definitely recommend the Abilene Donut Shop on Ambler if you're ever on the northside...

Normally I have good service and good food. But today 7/17/25, I had terrible service. I ordered my 2 sausage egg and cheese toasts and 2 sodas... sodas I recieved immediately. I was told to drive around and wait. The next 3 cars behind me were told to drive around and wait as well. While I was waiting, another car drives up. Well let's say all 4 vehicles got their orders and left. As another car drove up next to from the drive through I see the man bring her food. I said I been waiting 10 minutes.. where is mine. He looked at and said he would be right back. I wait 3 minutes still nothing.. so I drove off with just my 2 sodas. As I was driving down the street I see him open the door... but I was already heading to work. Turning around would have made me late. Now I'm here at work sitting with my stomach growling. Thanks guys for the first horrible service I had...

Customer service was not great today…clearly the register lady was having another bad day. Come to think of it I don’t know if I ever seen her in a great mood. Not a great way to start a Monday with someone else’s bad attitude. We’ve been customers for at least 6 years and there are just so many reasons why I don’t like this place. The prices are higher than other places and the food is not even worth it. Just get a sense of greed from these people. If it weren’t for my kids liking their pigs in blanket over other places I would never go here. I prefer the donut shop on 18th and Grape. They have always been friendly not one bad experience and we pay way less for...
