Donut Stop: A Delicious Destination for Every Craving! Donut Stop is more than just a donut shop - it's a sweet experience! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with friendly service and a smile. The staff is always so helpful and cheerful, they even helped me pick out the perfect assortment for birthdays and special occasions. But the real stars are the donuts themselves. Each one is a work of art, with beautiful frosting designs and a perfect golden-brown crust. And the flavors? Oh my! They've got classics like glazed and chocolate, plus seasonal specials that are always a treat. My personal favorite is the caramel. It's a perfect blend of sweet and salty, with a rich caramel glaze that's not too cloying. The caramel melts in your mouth, leaving a smooth, creamy finish. The best part? They're always delivered on time! No matter how many donuts I order, they arrive fresh and perfect, making every occasion even sweeter. If you're looking for a donut shop that delivers on taste, service, and punctuality, Donut Stop is the place to go!

Nice place for a fresh donut. Brought the kids to give it a try. The selection was small - plain, chocolate, rainbow sprinkles, but they were good. We'll try the soft serve ice cream next time. Staff were neither friendly or unfriendly. Service was fair. Place was clean and new.

The ambiance was very inviting with beautiful decor and comfortable seating. The perfect donut test is all about a balance of sweetness and texture, and this place nailed it. The donuts were fluffy and had the right amount of sweetness, not to mention the gooey toppings and flavor infusions added a wow factor. The staff was incredibly friendly and quick to attend to my needs, making me feel welcome as a customer. I also noticed the shop was sparkling clean, which gave me peace of mind. Overall, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a treat or a break from their busy day. It was the perfect haven for a donut lover like me.

I had the double burger and it was awesome. Their french fries are very American better than McDonald's. Back again one year later, I live here in Addis now. Came back for yes you guessed it! Another double cheese burger# and it was as good as before! Thanks doughnut stop! Another edit! I'm back and this time I've brought friends and family!
