This is a review of the Donut Palace on King St. in Seguin, Texas.
If you are wondering where to go for soft, good donuts...this is it. I have been there about 3 or 4 times in the 3 months since I have moved to Seguin. The donuts have been great until today.
Today I received an apple fritter that was pure grease on the inside. Not doughy, not soft. Just literally grease throughout the middle. This may make you wonder why I am recommending them when I had this horrible donut that may have been a day old and re-fried to appear fresh.
It actually was the first bad donut experience I have had there. All of the other times the donuts have been excellent. And I have 3 kids, so I have seen the range of the donuts from Donut Palace. Soft, fresh, good. Just one bad experience. I am still going to go back.
I want to say that at the same time I received this horrible apple fritter (the first time I got the fritter there...I usually stick with the cinnamon twist because it is soooo soft), my son wanted a sprinkle donut and they didn't have anymore. So they made him one! How great is that?!? I wasn't expecting them to do that, but they did with a smile.
Oh, that's another thing. They aren't real chatty. But they definitely are not rude. Just nice in general.
Oh, and one more good thing. They have a drive-thru. I love this. *************UPDATE: The drive-thru is a convenience IF you can get in line without being in traffic. It is becoming VERY hard, and frustrating to get into the drive-thru as there is always a long line. Because of this, I am now open to another donut store in Seguin. The staff is friendly, but convenience is starting to go downhill. Please!!! Fix the drive-thru issue!
I am going to write a not-so-positive review of Seguin Donuts in the plaza at 123/Court soon. But in the meantime I will tell you this. They are obviously selling day-old donuts and they are small and hard. The lady isn't really friendly, either. She strikes me as someone who hates her job! I don't have more than one experience with her, though. Because I haven't and won't go back. Who wants a hard donut?
