Duck Donuts — Restaurant in Bristol

I didn't really like this place. No hate or anything, it's just not my thing. I'm a simple man. I drink black coffee and my favorite type of donuts are plain cake and sugar raised, so I'm not enticed by myriad toppings and flavor combinations. The place was empty when my wife and I arrived at 11:00AM on a Sunday. There were no fewer than 5 employees which made things feel a little awkward. "Have you ever been to Duck Donuts...?" "No, we haven't", I replied. She proceed to explain how things are done at Duck Donuts. I thought, 'Take me to a donut shop... where I know how things work'. The cheezy pop music was a little too prominent for the number of people in the place and a little too upbeat. One of the songs was a super-clean, techno/ska/reggae version of "I Got You, Babe", for example. They make the donuts fresh to order, which is worth something, but the order took 16 minutes to complete. To me, it's not worth 16 minutes. Everyone was friendly and the place was clean though, so you can tell that the problem isn't with the employees. I actually kinda felt bad for the employees. It's just not a great...

Not as good as we expected. Just cake donuts dipped in whatever you want on them. The area where they are prepared is very messy and unclean which I understand that the toppings are sticky and messy but this was just too much. Tables were dirty. The box that they gave us was literally a sticky mess on the bottom and down the side so if you set it in your car seat or carry it, it will get all over your hands and your seat. There were more toppings in the box than on the donuts. They need a better system in my opinion. We went yesterday to try them and their system was down so they said it would be a wait so we returned tonight and it was a long wait anyway. Like 15 mins for 3 donuts. Employees are not quick at all and act like they are not properly trained on how to make the orders. $8.71 for 3 donuts. A dozen is over $20. No thanks on the price and service and food. I'll stick to Dunkin and...

Lots of people will like these donuts, and they are good for the style of donut but not quite what I was hoping for. Duck makes them fresh to order. I recommend ordering ahead on the app. These are yellow cake donuts with just about any topping you can imagine. Cool concept, nice workers. I am not a huge fan of cake donuts. I prefer the fluffy soft donuts. I'm probably being a bit harsh, but it is what it is. I'm just being honest these donuts are not my thing, definitely not worth the half-hour wait for me. But you might like it. If you like brands like Dunkin, these are a huge step up. If you love places like Seavers or Auntie Ruth's, these won't be your style.ALSO EXPECT TO spend 20 bucks a dozen plus tax. 13.95 for a half...
