Krispy Kreme Havertown, PA - Donuts, Coffee and "FUN"D Raising!

 
You know it is going to be a great day when you start your morning with the smell of freshly baked donuts and piping hot fresh-brewed coffee.  And when that donut happens to be a Krispy Kreme Donut - well - let's just say that happiness lasts the whole day through (at least for me it did!).



Two weeks ago, I was invited to join several local bloggers for a relaxing and informative Blogger Brunch at the new Krispy Kreme in Havertown, PA.  Located in the Manoa Shopping Center, the store is a great place to grab a coffee and donut (or dozen) and sit back, relax and maybe even take advantage of the store's free Wi-Fi!  The donut selection is ahhhh-mazing and we were lucky enough to sample an assortment  of flavors while visiting.  Glazed Sour Cream is my absolute favorite (second only to the Original Glazed) - but I was also especially impressed with the Key Lime Cheesecake.  Hey - I can honestly say there wasn't a single flavor that I did not like.  I was also excited to learn that they carry Frozen Hot Chocolate and Berry Chillers, which are both super yummy and wonderfully refreshing on a hot day.  You will find tea, lattes and other assorted beverages on the menu as well.


Their assortment of donuts is just heavenly.  One peek at the donut case is enough to bring on a craving, huh?


But if that doesn't do it - this definitely will...


YUMMMMMMM!!!!!

Some facts I learned while visiting the Havertown location:

  • There are 646 Krispy Kreme locations worldwide in 21 different countries (I had no idea!!!)
  • Two cousins from the Philadelphia area, Brian Zaslow and Keith Morgan are responsible for bringing back Krispy Kreme to the Philadelphia area (WOOT!  Big cheers for this awesome duo!!!) - Their plan is to open more stores in the PA, Delaware and New Jersey areas in the near future.
  • Krispy Kreme Philly locations are NUT FREE and TRANS-FAT FREE ( Huge bonus for those with tree nut allergies or looking for nut free snacks to bring to share at parties and gatherings)
  • Krispy Kreme has some great Fundraising opportunities which are a "sweet" way to make some money for your organization.  - who wouldn't love some coffee and donuts?  Best of all you can make 50% or more return on your fundraisers!


I must say - I had a wonderful time hanging out at this bright, cheery new location with some of my favorite blogger friends.  It is such a great place to meet up and chat or get some work done while enjoying some fresh brewed coffee.  Noshing on Krispy Kreme donuts was such a treat and I am looking forward to returning soon with my kids during their summer break for a special end of school snack.



Many thanks to Krispy Kreme for treating us to a lovely morning.  My kids were absolutely crazy over their complimentary after school snack (complete with Krispy Kreme hats!).  I am truly looking forward to keeping everyone up to date on all of the latest happenings at Krispy Kreme!

Have you visited the new Krispy Kreme in Havertown yet?  What did you think?


Disclosure: Bloggers, including myself, who attended the Blogger Brunch, were treated to beverages and samples as well as complimentary donuts-to-go and a generous swag bag.  Opinions, as always, are my own.

  2. I love Krispy Kreme! I was so sad when they closed down the Montgomeryville location. Their coffee is divine.

  3. I may love my Dunkin Donuts coffee, but nothing comes close to a Krispy Kreme donut. Sadly, they closed the two locations I used to go to, but at least there's one on the way home from my husband's Army unit! :)

  6. Okay I know I'm all about the "real food" and all but I do love me a Krispy Kreme. I have missed them since going gluten free. I'm drooling on my keyboard right now! :-)
