Overnight fire reported at South Austin donut shop (KC Donuts)
Hopefully they can come back from this, they've been my favorite shop in town since I was a kid.

One of my neighbors started a GoFundMe. I don’t know if they had insurance. I donated anyway – maybe they can get a bigger fryer and make more of those glazed donut holes I’m gonna be missing.
Damn! I literally drove by today on my way to pick up groceries and had half a thought to grab some croissants but remembered they are closed on Tuesdays. Thankfully we just had some last week, but super sad I’m going to have to wait even longer.

I personally preferred Shipleys but I know a lot of people love KC so hopefully they can bounce back

did their solar panels catch on fire? I hope not, particularly if they fried those donuts in delicious animal fats.

South Austin staple, I hope they have insurance and/or can recover from this. Absolute best donut holes and breakfast tacos

This sucks! The people working there are really nice and they have much better donuts than the shipleys across the street.

Dang, really hope they are ok. I have some fond memories of the place. When I moved to Austin a decade or so ago we lived right behind here on Eskew! Really small duplexes but it was great to walk to that strip mall.
