Imagine getting up wanting a bacon biscuit but following doctor orders. I have hypertension, so I decided to get donuts at Shipley’s. I ordered two donuts, one original and strawberry glazed this was my first time ordering the strawberry donut. I ate the original first and waited to eat the strawberry one later on. I had eaten my dinner, I go to eat my strawberry one afterwards and lord behold I took a bite on some type of metal. I was furious, I tried calling up there to speak with a manager and no one answered. Next day spoke to the black older lady in there, she said no manager was available. She stated she would give them the message and no one has yet to contact me. Imagine if that was a child, a parent would have been highly upset. So, just squeeze your donuts and make sure they’re safe to eat. I simply wanted my money back for my donut!!!
Went to Shipley's in Starkville this morning. Was disappointed as to the lack of donut selections. was out of most donuts. Grandkids wanted chocolate and strawberry sprinkled donuts- didn't have any.So do not know if they were out or had lack of supply issues....
Good for someone who is on budget. The best is coffee.
Go see Miss Linda she's the best.
I lived in Starkville for over 15 years, but moved out of state in 2005. Every time we come back in town for a visit, we have to ‘eat our way’ around Starkville. Shipleys is ALWAYS our most favorite stop. We even take donuts across state line to share with others who have never had, what might be, the BEST donut on earth. Unfortunately, this round, we were let down. We came to the shop around 7am, to find there were no donuts to be had. About 2 hours later, we tried again. Again, we were disappointed. Four people making donuts and they couldn’t keep up. The manager seemed nice, but totally dismissed the issue and acted flippant about the situation. Lots of people in line were also displeased, but there were plenty of large Togo orders leaving the store. Better planning might be needed to fulfill the demand of these ‘sugar nuggets’
Great donuts, employees need a raise.
Wonderful donuts, blueberry is my favorite!
This is the second time I’ve been in there within past 2 weeks and they had no donuts!
Mornings in Starkville .... get up, take the 3 minute drive to Shipley's, grab donuts and coffee. Snag a Starkville Daily News off the shelf and catch up on the latest Bulldog news while enjoying hot, amazing donuts. Then do it again tomorrow. :)
Hands down the best.!
