Queen Donut Shop No 1

this the best donut shop in town. amazing donuts my favorite is the baked cinnamon rolls. I would skip Shipleys and any other donut place in town. The staff are sooo kind and helpful especially the lady in the front and they have a clean and beautiful place. I recommend everyone who enjoys a great taste. Oh and their biscuits are the bomb.

Seriously, this is one of the best donutshop in town if not THE best. Personally, I’m a kolache man and the croissant kolache is amazing. Bread is perfect, quality sausage (just the right size), cheese is good.
Place has the classic donutshop look and looks well maintained. Price is also what to expect.
I’ve been to Christies and Hugz and Donuts and wasn’t impressed with any.

Truly OUTSTANDING Baked Cinnamon Rolls! If you want to be the star of the meeting… or you need to ‘bribe’ someone at the office, bring some of these!
Melt-​in-​your-​mouth glazed Donut holes! Buy a dozen because a bag of six won’t make it to the next traffic signal.
Great family owned-​operated business.

This place is really great. As others mentioned the ham and cheese croissant is amazing. The meat donut is not at all healthy but its out of this world good, and is available with ham, sausage, or bacon with egg and cheese. To be honest though the best thing they have are the plain glazed, donuts or holes. They are so light and soft and always warm. They keep the place clean and are always prompt and friendly. Can’t ask for much more. I used to think shipleys was good but this place is so much better. It’s obvious that they take pride in running their own business, unlike a franchise with inconsistent management and quality standards. This place makes me feel like a kid again.

Tastiest glazed donut iv had here in houston. Not too sweet, not too airy and with just the right texture in it. :)

Been twice.
Cake donuts are stellar, and yeast needs some work. But man, those cake donuts.
Also, good kolaches. Family owned, and will come back. It’s the local family alternative to the other expensive donut shop on 20^th.

I live right next to a Shipley’s but drive right past it to go here. Great donuts and kolaches. The ham and cheese croissant is also really good. The best thing here are the people though, very friendly and fast.

I’ve been to every donut place within a 10 mile radius of my home and this by far is the best! Better than Shipley, Heights Donuts, Cristies, all of them.

This review is 3 years in the making and coming straight from my sticky glazed fingers and a sugar high.
We’ve been coming to this donut shop since we moved into the neighborhood in 2012, and it never disappoints. I am a southerner but I’ve never understood the Shipley’s hype. You will not find a more perfectly fluffy, soft (but not too soft) glazed donut in all the land. Warm and fresh, and melt in your mouth fantastic. I honestly haven’t tried their other varieties because I’m a glazed donut purist, but I can’t imagine them not being just as good. My husband stops here almost daily for a jalapeño kolache on the way to work, and our toddler loves the regular kolaches as well.
The friendly locals that run this place are so kind and helpful, too. It is cash only for purchases under $ 5, but don’t let that stop you. You know you want AT LEAST $ 5 worth.
God bless you, Queen Donut. You are the real MVP.

Love is not the only thing that wins.
This place is drop dead delicious. Someone from work brought them in and the food was phenomenal. If you put this shop up against places like Christie’s, Queen Donut is Floyd Mayweather and Christie’s is Manny Pacquiao.
Keep doin what you doin queen.

Everything here is fresh and delicious. They remember your name and your order. They have the best donuts in town hands down plus their meat donuts are my favorite.

Best donuts in Houston! Apple fritters are my favorite. But I have had pretty much every type of donut here at some point. Fresh and soft donut holes.

Favorite donut spot in Houston! We drive about 10 minutes out of our way to get to Queen. The thing I love about this place, is not only are the kolaches the best in town, but the staff are great! Highly recommend if you are looking for an early morning food fix and want to sit down and eat or take to-​go.

I’m going to start by saying, I’m a rare breed. I don’t really care for donuts all that much and kolaches are something I could live without. I tried Queens after much praise from my husband and I was super skeptical when we pulled up, as it looks like nothing special on the outside. But let me tell you. I’ve never had anything like it, their jumbo jalapeño kolaches are amazing and their donut holes … Omg don’t get me started. Best donut holes you’ll ever find, and their prices are some of the lowest I’ve seen. Try this place.

This place is awesome. Fast, affordable, and Really good donuts. Their Pigs in a Blanket are great, and they’ll warm them up for you.

Delicious glazed donuts. So fluffy and sweet — not too rich. Haven’t tried any other kinds, because the glazed are just so good! Sausage and cheese kolache was okay… not the best I’ve had. Good service too! Highly recommended.

The most amazing ham and cheese croissant ever! They are always very flaky, buttery, and delicious. The donuts are always on point too! Seriously love this place!

I just happened to be in the neighborhood (okay, I lied I was going to Hughie’s), and saw this donut shop. I figured since I already claimed myself Donut Queen, I might as well try Queen Donuts.
I get my three usual donut shop selection: glazed, sugar, and a sausage kolache. The glazed donut is very glazed centric. A little overwhelming for me, but nonetheless, a good donut. Took a bite of sugar, and the dough literally melts is your mouth. Magic town, yo. At this point, I’m on a sugar high — so I must counteract the effects with the savoriness of the sausage kolache. Eh. Not my favorite.
Overall, I wouldn’t go out of my way to go here. Bakery Donut is still the best donut place in the Heights.

This is my favorite donut shop in the world. If I ever find a better kolache, I will be heartbroken because I truly love this place. Their prices are great, their service is always fast, and the food is always exactly how I want it.

Two stars for the glazed donuts.
I’ve been here twice, as the first time the donuts tasted metallic and chemical, and the second time they just tasted more chemical like I was eating baking soda or something. I’m no expert on these glazed O’s, but dang, where’s my water to wash this aftertaste all down?!?
Four stars for the jumbo kolache.
The sausage is bigger, as it’s cooked with bits of cheese and jalapeño inside. I would have preferred more cheese between the sausage and bread, but it’s good enough.
They also have these weird meat donuts, and I still haven’t been brave enough to pop one in my mouth. You can get your combo of bacon/​ham/​sausage with egg & cheese. Maybe next time.
Oh, and they don’t serve decaf coffee. =(
