January 7, 20214 yr Author Just now, billfromlaketravis said: The only good Shipley’s locations in Houston: North Main and Ella. That’s it. The North Main location is the only one I go to. I drive past two others to get there.

The Ella location does the unique cake donuts which are a nice change of pace. They reduce the price of donuts as the day goes on. I’ve heard you can get them for free right before close. I’ve never checked it out because I refuse to eat a donut after 12 pm. Edited January 7, 20214 yr by billfromlaketravis

January 7, 20214 yr I’ll refrain from commenting on Shipley’s “kolaches”. It’s a disservice not to use a real sausage. I’ll leave it at that.

Wrap in napkins and place in your cupholders. The heat from a Texas afternoon sun will keep those bad boys ready for a 5 pm treat for the commute home.

They sell the boudian kolache and the Big Earl at participating locations. I count 4 locations in Houston. This is out of several hundred locations. The vast majority of locations are serving a hot dog with jalapenos and cheese. Edited January 7, 20214 yr by billfromlaketravis

Lived near both at different points and have bought from many others. This is just a silly “foodie” kind of argument that has no merit. Also, the sickest I’ve ever been from food poisoning was after taking one bite of a chocolate filled from the one on Main. I knew something was off with that fucker and next thing I know, I can’t keep anything in me for 3 days and my kidneys were on fire and felt like they’d been hit with a sledgehammer. 10 hours ago, Texas St. Armadillos said: A couple, glazed donuts picked up after lunch.

I only go to the one right across the freeway from me that I pass every morning on the way to drop my daughter off at school and they have them.

January 11, 20214 yr I tried the Big Earl and boudin kolaches yesterday. The boudin was dry and needed some hot sauce. The Big Earl was good, but kind of a unbalanced cheese/jalapeño/bread to sausage ratio. Still a really good “kolache”. I said it in the kolache thread, but River Oaks Donuts makes the best “kolache” in Houston. They buy their sausage from Prasek’s. It won’t make you forget about Hruska’s, but it’s good and inside The Loop.

Also, they actually have real kolaches

January 11, 20214 yr Shipleys glazed donuts are amazing good. My only complaint is having to train new locations when I open a new office or move. I prefer mine glazed and then with chocolate icing. I go in, explain what I am looking for and after awhile, they know me and will make 3 in the back and are usually still warm. I cancel out all the sugar with a Diet Coke.

Well, we'll see about that when their new Austin investment group overlords really take charge. That sounds like an inefficient process that will quickly get replaced with corn syrup and despair.
January 11, 20214 yr Houstonians' fascination with Shipley's just completely baffles me. Absolutely nothing unique or interesting about a chain donut business. Hell, there's one in San Marcos.
