Overall Shop rating: 3 Nadas
In life, however much I wish we were all winners, there must be losers for there to be winners. This shop wasn’t a winner. With high hopes I visited Donut Queen accompanied by my sister. I was excited that the shop is so closely located to my parents’ house. This would have been the perfect place to jump on my beach cruiser and mosey on over for a nibblet but, alas, I don't make a habit of regularly eating donuts that have a rating below 4 1/2 Nadas. Call me a donut snob, call me what you want, but I know what donuts deserve blue ribbons and those are the ones that belong in my belly.
Vibe of Shop: 4 ½ Nadas
I was excited about the look of the interior of the shop. Ample seating, good lighting, street views, and good use of donut pink had me thinking that this shop may create a winning donut, but looks aren’t everything. You can’t judge a book by it’s cover.
Outside Appearance: 5 Nadas
The location is great. Right on the corner of 2 busy streets and across for the train station, it has a large bright sign and plenty of parking.
Hours: 24 hours!!!
Service: 3 Nadas
I got the vide that the people running the place didn’t want to be there. Not a very good way to welcome visiting customers, especially donut critics like myself.
Taste of Glaze Donut: 2 Nadas
The donut was dry and stale and the glaze was too thin. What a disappointment. Also, could have been the time of the day, but the selection of donut was very thin.
Blueberry Donut: No
Coffee: 1 Nada
Tasted like dirty mud water… and it wasn’t even that hot. Here’s some advice, Donut Queen: I’ve been told if you have bad beer, serve it really, really cold because the taste buds will not be able to taste it. In the same way, if you have bad coffee, serve it really hot.
Special: They sold bananas, a healthy choice. They also sold cigarettes to accompany your bad coffee, a not-so-healthy choice.
