Donut Haven — Restaurant in Clute

Wanted great donuts with the kids so looked for the place with the highest rating. Ended up here. The server was very nice. The selection of donuts was average at best. None of the donuts we ordered seemed fresh. The "filled" donuts two of my kids wanted turned out to be large solid donuts that the server cut in half and made into donut sandwiches with the requested filling. We also love sausage kolaches. The ones we got were very brown as if they had been in a warmer for many hours, maybe even since the day before. The sausage was not a normal sausage but a large dinner link that had been sliced in half long-ways. Mine had two big chunks of gristle in it. My kids would not finish them even though they are usually a favorite. The 4 kids each got a small (approximately 8 oz) milk or OJ and I got a coffee. Total bill for 6 donuts, 6 kolaches, 4 small drinks, and coffee = $29.90. I don't mind a premium price for a premium product and do not consider myself a price sensitive consumer, but this place was nowhere near premium quality. I will say that the employees were friendly, but I wanted to give a 1 star review just so that their rating is not so high and someone else does not get dragged...

Literally went there this morning on the advice of these reviews, it was not good at all. They use link sausage in the kolaches.. like the ones we eat at a barbecue. They were 3.80 a piece. A half a dozen glaze was like 10 bucks.. basically 19.80 for 3 kolaches and 6 donuts. That is absolutely ridiculous!. They do not have a big selection of donuts and I don't think the kolaches were even made today. I could've went to a competitor and got way better bang for my buck and we would've actually enjoyed our breakfast.. my kids don't want no part of it.. highly disappointed. If you enjoy not getting a value for your dollar go waste your money. But I really suggest going elsewhere.. was not worth it at all.. came home tried it and then cooked...

Top tier donuts, top tier owners and 12/10 kolaches. I've tried kolaches everywhere in Texas, all over Houston through DFW and nowhere comes close to this. These guys got it right and continually do. You're cheating yourself if you don't try it. I wish I didn't live in Houston now, I think about them all the time :(

If you think Shipley's is better, I'm genuinely sorry for you and your palette, especially if you're comparing kolaches. And the fact that they aren't small round sausages but bigger links cut in half is what makes them so amazing and unique. Try them and...
