Nates Donuts & Coffee — Restaurant in Lake Worth

I'm not sure if this place changed ownership, or maybe they have multiple locations and the friendly people who were working here months ago are focusing their attention on a different shop, but as of late the one man I keep seeing behind the counter really hasn't maintained what I used to like about this place.

He isn't all that friendly (he isn't MEAN, but the woman and various students that used to be working this place were SO NICE). The variety of breakfast sandwiches is gone. (At first I thought I wasn't getting in there early enough, but I've come in there earlier and earlier and it's just been sausage rolls; they used to have this one with a fluffier bread stuffed with a rice and sasauge mixture... haven't seen it in weeks.) Doesn't seem to interested in making any of the specialty coffee drinks they advertise on the menu board (a variety that, admittedly, seems to have dwindled recently, too, given the amount of handwritten edits the board has seen lately). And the dining area used to be kept really tidy, with all the cooler drinks and supplies kept out of sight, but this is no longer the case.

All-in-all, the things that made this donut shop stand out among the crowd seem to have vanished, which is kind of a shame. But, ya know, maybe it's for the best. I probably shouldn't be eatin'...

I've tried to take my little kid here 3 times now, all the times were before 9am, around 830ish, and literally EVERY single time they are out of almost everything, basic donuts like donut holes, sprinkled chocolate, chocolate. It just doesn't make any sense to be open until 12 or 1, and not make enough stuff to last you until even 9 or 10 o'clock?! This shop is the most convenient for us when we get donuts, however we will just continue to drive a little further to Yummy Yummy donuts on jacksboro, they are ALWAYS stocked up and ready to serve. And they have great service which means a lot as well....

OMG! Omg! Absolutely the world's best donuts. You have to go in about 5:15 in the morning and tell him you want a cinnamon roll I promise you you put it in your mouth and it just dissolves it is so incredibly good I can't even explain it. Now I've got a ton of children 17 grandchildren and I bought a lot of donuts in my 60 years and I promise you if you pull into this place and buy these donuts you will always come back here. The owner is Nate and his wife and his son work there as well and they are really special people . They're always friendly and always have a smile...
