I've never actually been to the location, but my coworker brought me items from here for breakfast. I didn't give it a 5 star because I don't know how the store experience is. The food however is delicious though. I got donut holes and those are pretty amazing, they are larger than normal ones and it's very fluffy and light. I also got the bacon donut, that's pretty amazing, the bacon is crispy and delicious, the maple icing is just a little too sweet and too thick, so I could do with less of the icing. The crossiant kolache is a genius idea. I will definitely...
Read moreThe second-best part of KC Donuts is the look on people's face when you get home, put your white cardboard box down on the table, and open it up to show what's inside. It's like the briefcase scene from Pulp Fiction, but with glaze instead of golden light. Obviously the first-best part is the donuts themselves, which are huge, fresh, delicious, and cheap enough - confection perfection. It's difficult to be at the office and eat regular grocery store donuts after having had KC Donuts; the rest just taste like Monday morning somehow, even if it's already Thursday.
There's only 1 pitfall, which is that they are too popular. You might think that their unassuming location tucked away in a shopping center in mid-Brodie directly across the street from a popular chain like Shipley's would mean that they're a "hidden gem" or something like that, but you couldn't be more wrong. Everybody around knows about them, so if you don't get there early on a weekend or at Prime Donut Time during weekdays you'll probably stand in line for 10-15 minutes. Or, worst of all, your favorite kind might have run out and you will suffer such disappointment as you have rarely known outside of major sporting events or high-stakes poker games. Consider...
Read moreAbsolutely the best donuts in Austin. Especially the plain glazed, which completely melt in your mouth. Love the croissant sandwiches here also. We always get the egg and cheese which they make fresh for you (vegetarian option for the win!). Lastly, the breakfast tacos (of the potato, egg and cheese variety) are incredibly delicious, with a really unique and tasty fresh salsa! I've been eating breakfast tacos for years - in Arkansas, Arizona, and now Texas- and I have never had any better than those at KC. All around, KC donuts is breakfast perfection! Their iced coffee is good too. Only one downside is that they usually do not have any plain glazed donuts until around 8:15 in the mornings. I've often wanted to take donuts to my work, but I can't because I have to leave by 8:00 am. Earlier...
