An A&W All American Food could maybe make their first Atlanta Ga location here or maybe an Arby's can open. Those would be good to accommodate this space possibly. jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11070899266541068218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-35051499928779788882016-04-09T00:33:52.398-04:002016-04-09T00:33:52.398-04:00Very upset to see the store closed!!

I went there several times. When I was there in January, something wasn't right. The hot sign was on outside but there was no hot doughnuts and two employees was making negative comments about my doughnut selections. I made up in my mind to choose another KK location to buy doughnuts. Drove pass it the a few weeks ago, it was gone. It would sort of nice to see a pharmacy there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-13729273407030949802016-02-18T18:26:40.308-05:002016-02-18T18:26:40.308-05:00Peoples eating habits have changed, KK donuts are ...Peoples eating habits have changed, KK donuts are way... too sugary sweet.

Some KKs do well, but they tend to be in more spirited 'communities' (maybe a high school or two nearby, lots of parents and teens stopping in, mid to upper-middle class neighborhoods in close proximity). <br /><br />I didn't enjoy their coffee (tasted like basic bitter, bunn pour-o-matic office break room swill), and having a Chick fil A next door probably didn't help their morning business. But for donuts, I like KK, moreso than DD (which are all made offsite).<br /><br />~mindspringyahooAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-91156256613807173702016-02-02T08:26:34.901-05:002016-02-02T08:26:34.901-05:00Krispy Kreme doughnuts are definitely better than ...Krispy Kreme doughnuts are definitely better than Dunkin's, but as you mentioned, Dunkin' has a larger variety of food. And then in cities such as Atlanta, we have specialty doughnut shops like Sublime, Revolution, and now Bon Glaze. It's tough to compete. If I want a treat, I'd rather have the "high end" doughnut. And if I want breakfast, I need some protein, so Dunkin' has something with eggs at least.AJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-33045265910918858222016-02-01T17:26:49.845-05:002016-02-01T17:26:49.845-05:00Krispy Kreme was once seen as sort of unique and a...Krispy Kreme was once seen as sort of unique and available only by driving to the location on Ponce or getting them through some fundraiser. However, now they’re available in most grocery stores and even many convenience stores along with the free standing stores. Bottom line the novelty sort of wore off and even though it’s good doughnut it’s not great. Hamnoreply@blogger.com
