Cork's Old Fashioned Donuts — Restaurant in Albany

I have visits Corks on a few different occasions. Some to bring to work some just as a treat. It’s hard to find good donuts these days. And living in the valley my whole life I always have searched and never Turkey been satisfied. I’m not into voodoo donuts. More of a donut purest. Well Corks does a decent job!

Service: I’m always greeted with a kind very efficient staff member. They know the product so well even if I miss speak they know what I mean. It’s very quick. They smile and do their best every time whether it’s 6am on a Wednesday or 9 on a Sunday.

Food: they aren’t the best donuts I have ever had, but they are far superior to any grocery store donut or even some fancy bakery. They have great cake and regular donuts.

When they are open, they have pretty good donuts and coffee. I would say that Daynight Donuts in Salem has slightly better flavors, but unlike Daynight, their cafe area is more inviting and the people are friendlier. Would definitely give them more stars if they could pin down their...

First time here last Thursday. Several locals I work with said they had good stuff so I tried it.

Got 2 dozen assorted donuts, even some maple bars with bacon, some Bavarian filled, etc. specialty donuts. 1 box was for the office, 1 for our stockroom onsite ATI.

I had half of 3 different kinds, both were as good as any I've had, and I've eaten some donuts, believe me. That's why I only had half of each, I've probably had a few too many in my life already 😆!

It was about $44 for 2 dozen, including a fair amount of "specialty" ones, like 7 or 8. For comparison, a dozen regular old donuts from Albertsons is at least $18, more if you get any specialty ones.

These are well worth $2-3 more.
