Me! I lived in Leander Texas many years ago. RR donuts are legendary.

[@MichaelNaydeck]

I live in Cedar Park. Have been to Round Rock Donuts many times. They recently opened up a branch near me in Cedar Park now. We love Round Rock Donuts

[@tammymiller5801]

We live in Killeen, Texas and anytime we head south on IH 35 we stop at RR donuts. Sometimes with a list from family and friends.

[@monabonejakon2797]

I graduated from Round Rock High School in 1977, so yes, I have had Round Rock Donuts. They opened in 1926. 🤠🍩🍩🍩

[@tammycenter8757]

If I worked there I would let Alana have the whole doughnut shop.

[@CCoburn3]

The lesson we learned today is that local eateries beat national chains almost every time.

[@TBNTX]

100% true.

[@charlenemorris5516]

Always local eatery’s….💖

[@emilyb5307]

Yup! Every. Time.

[@thecapturban]

Every damn time❤

[@CCoburn3]

@@thecapturban In our town, we have a donut shop that is acknowledged as making the best donuts in the state. Someone tried to open a Krispy Kreme here, but it closed in less than 6 months. There is a Dunkin Donut near the interstate, but they don’t get local customers. And it’s the same with pretty much everything else. If you want Mexican food, go to a hole-in-the-wall restaurant. If you want a good sandwich, go to a local sandwich shop. But I understand why they have to try the chains. Their audience recognizes those names. But I hope they also got to try more of the local places too.

[@brianm523]

I used to be a firefighter in Round Rock about 20 years ago. One night we got a call to respond to RR donuts… it all went up in flames! I’ve never seen so many sad people at the scene of a fire, and I completely shared their pain. It was like our collective house was burning down in front of our eyes. But, a few weeks later they rented a trailer and kept baking while the new restaurant was built. They are the heart and soul of Round Rock! I still call that building “the new one” even though it’s old enough to drink now lol.

[@FUBAR1986]

I love the story and I miss that America….

[@jtclark5274]

I remember when that happened. People were sad that day.. 😥

[@codytibbs2480]

I'm born and raised in RR hell I went to CD fulkes right around the corner and I remember that day

[@jamesnew8170]

Legends never die!

[@dirtyfiendswithneedles3111]

Thank you, not only for sharing that incredible story, but also for risking your life to help others.

[@RobbieAmerican]

Round Rock Donuts are the Best! These donuts melt in your mouth!! Yum! Y'all were close to my neck of the woods.

[@CCoburn3]

Mrs. H., "You can't just pick up a big one!" Baby H., "Hide and watch me."

[@sherryford667]

I laughed out loud when Alana tasted it and put the tiny bit back in the bag. 😀

[@mikeleschber33]

If you have never had a Round Rock Donut, you will never understand how good they are. There is nothing even close to them.

[@Mrhandfriends]

Agreed

[@Ss-dz6cm]

I love RR donuts. I have been to one other donut place that had that same special quality. In Springfield, Ohio, there is a local donut shop that has been famous to locals forever. It is called Schuler's and their claim to fame is their chocolate glaze. Not taking away from RR donuts. Just calling attention to another local donut shop so people can visit if they are nearby.

[@Ss-dz6cm]

There is something about local eateries that beats a national chain every single time.

[@mikeleschber33]

@@Ss-dz6cm Now I want to got to Ohio!

[@Ss-dz6cm]

@@mikeleschber33 they are pretty special. Not sure which I would pick. I think the donut from Schuler's and the kolache from RR. But it would be a hard choice. If you are ever there, go visit.

[@RoGueNavy]

The donuts literally just melt in your mouth, when they're warm. And just from walking in the door, you can gain five pounds from the smells alone.

[@cinexploits]

That doughnut would make for a great birthday cake....

[@olds777]

I love watching you Brits eat American food you always say its the best you ever had lol

[@SoTiredofHandles]

It’s not just Brits. Look up Giannis Antetokounmpo NBA star from Greece. He lost his mind over Oreos and lost it again over them dipped in milk. First time he had a Frappuccino he said “God bless America”. I’ve been a few places and food here is just better.

[@candice7914]

What a good baby.. no matter how good that donut 🍩 look... She knew that was a stranger and she wasn't going there.... ❤❤❤

[@CCoburn3]

Baby H. seems to have liked the donuts. But she would have liked them better if there had been something to dip them in. She loves to dip.

[@katrinagreely5399]

Elana looks so pretty in yellow. And with her darling pigtails. ☺️

[@nullakjg767]

You didnt mention it, but those donuts are only a dollar each, the special ones maybe 1.40. The giant donut is only 12 dollars. The value is incredible.

[@mrbill8542]

WOW--Mr. H was actually speechless there for a moment !!! Never seen that before !!

[@Mrhandfriends]

I'm going to take him for donuts more often lol

[@mrbill8542]

Poor guy !!@@Mrhandfriends

[@mushroomhead3]

Mrs. H has great interview skills! She's like a news correspondent on location.

[@SoTiredofHandles]

I was thinking Journalism degree??

[@honda86tb]

Instead of Michelin Star ratings, restaurants should go for the Baby H approval.

[@Mrhandfriends]

😂

[@SoTiredofHandles]

Amen!

[@tazmom0]

Oh my goodness! Baby girl is tearing those donuts up! She's so sweet.

[@joanneth4919]

I love donuts, and RR had some good-looking donuts. It shows that America has certain foods other countries don't do as well as us. Donuts and barbecue are really American.

[@heatherdavis8843]

I used to work at a school down the street from RR donuts… most staff meeting was well attended b/c there were often RR donuts! That bakery also made my sister’s wedding cake… it was the first wedding cake I had that actually tasted good!

[@smazrack]

I grew up in Round Rock and moved away when my job took me somewhere else. Didn't realize how special it was until I didn't have it anymore! My folks still live there and I always stop at RR donuts when I come home! Thanks for bringing back the memories! PS - You two and Baby H are a treat to watch. Keep it up!

[@John-hr9ec]

Been there , had the head sized donut! It fed 4 of us 😂. Salt Lick bbq later that night was awesome too.

[@ginger4141]

Salt Lick's pecan pie is the best I've ever had. Sorry mom. 😁

[@creinicke1000]

Salt lick is my favorite!!!!

[@hatleyhoward7193]

Kolaches. Sausage and Cheese… add Jalapeño if you’re feeling saucy. Fun fact: Kolaches are actually Klobasneks but the translation changed from the original Czech to Czech-Texan and it’s now in our lexicon; the definition has changed. Just don’t go to Eastern Europe and order a Kolache, and expect what you are served in Texas.

[@Mrhandfriends]

I found this out afterwards. The klobasneks are the sausage filling, whereas kolache are more like the fruit fillings. Is that correct?

[@Juliah-gc7ts]

In PA we say kolaches too. Usually they are nut rolls

[@hatleyhoward7193]

@@Mrhandfriends Technically yes. But the term Kolache in Texas is acceptable for the sausage. It was a translation error that changed the meaning…. But god bless the Czech’s for such a delicious breakfast option. 😂

[@hatleyhoward7193]

@@Mrhandfriends And if you guys ever make your way down to Houston prepare yourself for some Vietnamese Crawfish Noodles that will knock your socks off…. I might be biased, but Houston has the best food offerings in the State. Bring it y’all!!

[@Rose-z4h6k]

@@hatleyhoward7193 Oh, yes! Viet-Cajun crawfish boil or tamarind blue crabs at Crawfish and Noodles is a must when you're in Houston. I have to agree. You can eat your way around the world in Houston. ​ @Mrhandfriends as you saw, you will find both kinds of kolaches in Texas. The sausage seem to be more common away from the Hill Country. And most Texans seem to mean sausage when they say kolaches. There are a bunch of places in West (on I-35 between Austin and DFW) that have both. There are a couple places in FW that have good fruit ones. I love the poppy seed. The one food I miss from the Rust Belt town where I grew up is perogies. Those are hard to find in Texas. But I'm sure somewhere you can get BBQ brisket perogies, lol.

[@heatherspence3848]

9:36 Ms H interview skills are so natural and would love to see more. You made her feel comfortable in the window

[@mikesample6104]

The Southern United States has the best Donuts 🍩 😋 I am from South Carolina Folly Beach ⛱️. I love Texas

[@Navyuncle]

You guys are a hoot to watch. I never know what to expect next. I saw that Jimmy and Millie from the Beesleys are the next British family intended to invade America. As my dad would say, " the more the merrier." ❤

[@DeAnne1233]

Baby H has the perfect amount of trust and mistrust around you guys and friendly strangers. My kids were very similar with unfamiliar people, observant but cautious. That nature helped them access who to let in and who to keep out of their inner circles. Hope that made sense, just saying that you’re doing the parenting thing Right. 😊

[@b.slocumb7763]

Baby H is like “Forget the kolache! Give me some more sugar!!” She ain’t no dummy, y’all!

[@spams8208]

I used to live in Texas as a kid and my siblings and I still talk about RR donuts. We miss them so much!

[@PerfectoMendez-xk7wi]

Really enjoy watching these nice folks. Beautiful family.

[@brt5273]

Their doughnuts are evrything you would want a doughnut to be.

[@robertwickkiser3040]

I'm truly glad that you enjoyed the doughnuts,

[@clydeallen8681]

OMG watching y'all eat that made me drool with jealousy! Welcome to Texas where everything is bigger and better! Yeehaw! We bloody love y'all back a lot!

[@AnnaZverina]

I've lived in Round Rock my whole life. I've had hundreds of those donuts. Need a birthday cake? Texas sized donut. Need to pay someone back? Buy them donuts. Need to get breakfast for everyone? Donuts. Can't imagine life without Round Rock Donuts. Hell, I can't imagine growing up anywhere else besides Round Rock.

[@Mrhandfriends]

Looks like RR Donuts are the new currency in Round Rock

[@susanthomas-reed1022]

I love watching Baby H going for it! You all are living your best lives ❤️

[@Marcus-p5i5s]

When I was about 10 years old a bakery that was on my way to school sold Texas donuts. HUGE. 50 cents a piece.

[@Mrhandfriends]

Wow. I would have ate too many

[@Marcus-p5i5s]

I was limited by a 10 year olds weekly allowance fortunately. :) @@Mrhandfriends

[@jeffhampton2767]

I remember when donuts for .99 cents a dozen. 🤔😆

[@Marcus-p5i5s]

yep@@jeffhampton2767

[@frances4309]

The little balls that are cut out of the center are called "doughnut holes". They come in so many yummy flavors and in both the cake doughnuts and yeast doughnuts. EDIT to say, the ones shown in the video are yeast doughnuts. Cake doughnuts are more popular in the Fall/Autumn with hot/warm apple cider.

[@patricebetts6531]

They are also called pop ems , and munchkins depending on the brand.

[@TerminalFailSafe]

It’s been awhile since we visited Round Rock Donuts and I can honestly say, this is what a true donut 🍩 really is! These donuts are worth the drive!! It’s only a short little drive around here.. We can be the in 2 hours and 40 minutes!!! Just up the road!! - I’m thinking we have a ride trip coming up in the very near future!

[@stevewilliams8559]

My "Mum" as you say used to make donuts from Pillsbury's canned biscuits. She used a sewing thimble for the hole. Just fry them in oil, flip them once and then glaze with whatever you like, powdered sugar, maple syrup, whatever.

[@tammybeck906]

I love fresh made doughnuts. I've never been to Texas but if I ever go I'm trying those.

Krispy Kream doughnuts were the bomb. I bet that place is better.

[@Mrhandfriends]

I've only had Krispy Kreme in the UK so imagine they taste better in the US, BUT.... I cannot see how any donuts are going to be better than Round Rock Donuts. Mrs H 💕

[@jeffhampton2767]

Great job on the video!. I don't normally eat donuts or even crave donuts, but after seeing this video I wanted one of those donuts, because it looked so fresh. ❤🇺🇸🙏🏻👍🏻✌🏻

Whats dynamite in the fall is going to an apple orchard and getting a dozen freshly fried apple cider donuts. Count yourself lucky if some are left to make it home 😊

Hey Jesse. We loved every mouthful of every donut

I am only 25 min drive to that donut place. we use to get 2 boxes of variety of flavor donuts. it is the best in Texas.

[@judykeown]

I just want either the plain glazed or a chocolate glazed. They also have good sausage kolaches.

[@danor6812]

Loved when she threw the little piece back in the bag. The best way to know if food really taste good. Is to eat it when your not hungry. If it does its good food, because when you are hungry, almost anything taste good.

[@genamayhew1961]

Amazing & hilarious, There's nothing like a fresh warm glazed donut. We have Dunkin Donuts, Krispy Kreme & we have Duck Donuts in my city. I love that they gave u the VIP tour & some cool swag. I loved watching her glaze those donuts, I love donuts & my favorite is usually a powdered donut with chocolate or vanilla cream filling. The 1st time I ever saw Elana shy, that's a good thing tho. So happy to see everyone was so kind to our British cousins & hope it makes u want to come back to visit more & more. 💜🙏⭐🤠🍩😍😻

In Houston we eat the local brand Shipley’s. An old donut shop with kolaches. We also have the Kolaches Shop. They sell dozens of different types from sweet to savory. Bristol could use one and also Cardiff across the bridge into Wales. Glad you enjoyed the little bit you saw of Texas.

[@chazfu]

I was born in Houston and love Shipley's. We moved to the DFW area when I was 11, and I missed them. Luckily Shipley's expanded to my area about 6 or 7 years ago. Now I just need James Coney Island to do the same.

[@mylesmartinez162]

So glad you guys are getting to try some local delicacies. As many of your followers have said, local spots are usually the best compared to the large chain restaurants and shops. Hope you guys have an amazing holiday here and you continue to come back for future holidays!

[@denisehaukkala9742]

There is a saying, " I'm not from Texas, but I got there as soon as I could. " Pretty well sums up their trip.

[@Nimbus1701]

Love the reaction, and based on what I have seen it seems like your family enjoyed your visit to Texas. I've lived in Texas my entire life and so many of our people are more than proud of living here and consider it a privilege. We have our problems and there are jerks like everywhere I suppose, but the vast majority of people in a state of around 30 million people, the jerks are the exception to the rule. I could likely say the same thing about every state, and it also seemed to hold true to our great neighbors in Florida when you visited there. Southern hospitality, friendliness, and manners may be considered old-fashioned by standards today, but we don't care in Texas. I live in a city with over 250,000 people and have literally met a person in my golf league give an extra shirt, towel, and the spare $25 he had packed in his bag to a person digging in the trash over the past summer. I'm so sorry you all seemed a little under-the-weather when you first arrived, but I hope you enjoyed your time and experiences and consider coming back at some point. I know a channel called TheBeesley's, and another channel called JonoGraham are dying to come to Texas and maybe it could be an event you all could coordinate. With as many people you have subscribed that know people (like the press passes at the State Fair), you all could very likely get offers to stay at places free, or get unique access to certain things (possibly a tailgate at a college football game), or a VIP Tour around Jerry's World. We love you guys and wanted to let you know that y'all are always welcome and to come back anytime and as often as you can. You guys are officially adopted by the great and friendly citizens of our great State of Texas!
