Got 2 original glazed doughnuts and a tall cappuccino, they gave us 2 complimentary doughnuts with chocolate creamy stuff inside and oreo's sprinkled on top and then at the next window said because I had ordered a doughnut and drink they would give us another original glazed one too.

Us and one other car behind us were the only customers in the drive thru but while we waiting a good five minutes or so for the coffee to come a number on cars came driving in so was thinking with the empty drive thru and all the freebies they must be scratching around for business but looked more like we just got there at a fortunate time.

Not worth the hype original glazed were alright, the chocolatey oreo type ones were too sickly and the coffee was shithouse, even HJ's cappucino's run rings around KK's.


We went through their drive-thru Wednesday night about 7ish, and there was no one else there. The tunnel thing seemed a bit creepy and the checkout dude had a staring problem.

We got 6 glazed, 3 mudcake, 3 caramel rings, and 3 cookies and creams (those sickly things you speak of).

I had two mudcake ones, and one caramel one over 2 days, and dont want any more. They're terrible.

Don't be knocking HJs coffee. They're my coffee of choice on the way into work. $2 for a medium, and tastes much better than the Maccas ones. Plus Im not the kind of tosser to hold everyone up at a servo to get a coffee.

I hear ya I wasn't knocking HJ's coffee just that with how much money is pumped into KK you would think they could make coffee better than HJ.

FWIW, I love the $2 medium cappuccinos from HJ's and probably get one a week, when their coffee machines aren't broken or being cleaned that is.

Well he started with 1 servo and now owns 111 and is worth about 400 million by the age of 37. Not bad going.

Dad passed away around 18 months ago.
Woody West or South was their first servo.

I like how they still have the "No queuing on the road for Krispy Kremes" sign out the front, when no ones even queuing in the drive-thru anymore.

Agreed a little bit cheeky, we decided to hit them up again tonight and were the only car in the drive-thru. No freebies this time either.
