Shipley Donuts

If you go here don’t get a «kolache» they use hot dogs instead of traditional breakfast links
And I would put my life on it that it IS NOT an Earl Campbells sausage as stated below

Yums! This place is in an underground tunnel, but it’s pretty easy to find; google maps has it right. There are a lot of donuts to choose from, and I got a twist, cream-​filled, and devil’s food. They were all really good! The devil’s food has a very chewy almost bread-​like outside, and the cream inside tastes somewhat like coffee, though it’s really sweet. The cream-​filled is chewy and light, and the cream isn’t too sweet which I appreciated. The outside was glazed though, so it was pretty sweet by the end of eating it. The twist I think could have been fluffier, and it was glazed as well. There wasn’t additional sugar besides that, but since I ate it last, it was pretty sweet. Not a bad place, all this cost almost $ 4 though. Expensive breakfast!

After moving from Houston to NYC, the second thing I wanted to eat after I stepped off the plane was a Shipley’s kolache. So many good memories of mornings kicked off the right way with a couple kolaches on the way to work…
This location did not disappoint. Pretty convenient location for a tunnel location — just a quick escalator down from the lobby.
Craving satisfied. Now on to Pappasitos…

Well… I use to frequent this location atleast once a week but I think the location wasn’t well thought out. They opened it right next door to a smoothie king so guess what happened… they have now relocated outside of my walking radius. I can still smell it like it was yesterday… ahhhh

I know, I know. I’m possibly shocking you with my secret love of fried dough.
I am picky though, so there’s that. For example, if I was having an insulin reaction on a desert (or is that dessert?) island and could only find one sad, flattened doughnut at Shipley’s and a doughnut festival at Dunkin’s and/​or Krispy’s, I’d be fighting people off for that one glazed Shipley’s. (Then probably wander around looking for a Christy’s Blueberry Cake Doughnut until just before I passed out — you know, just to make sure a better doughnut wasn’t out there waiting for me.)
Since there is no decent bakery in the tunnels and I was having a desert island sort of moment, I reached for a Shipley’s. Sugar dusted yeast if you must know the specifics.
It hit the spot and I was able to continue my tour of the tunnels. I sort of felt like Ms. Pacman chomping up a cherry, though — glad I don’t have to endure the tunnels on a daily basis. Yikes!

Nothing makes me happier than coming into work and finding a box of Shipley’s that someone had brought in. Not many things can beat a warm, fluffy, glazed donut. Except maybe a kolache because they sell mean kolaches as well. Sadly, these donuts are making me fat and I might need to take a hiatus.
