    This place is unfriendly and expensive. The donuts taste ok, but are the smallest I've ever run across. I'm surprised this guy is still in business.

  • John A.

    This gets one star because there is not a zero star option. Terrible tasting donuts. Way, way overpriced. Only positive thing was that the donuts were exceptionally small and so there wasn't that much agony in finishing them. Steer clear of the donut connection!

    If there was less than one star, this place would get it. It seems to be a half donut, half restaurant that provides hoagies, sandwhiches etc. Firstly, sign on the front door which reads NO PUBLIC RESTROOMS. just like that in all caps. A business business in PA must have a publics restroom of they are providing seats for the customers, which they were. Went there at around 5:30pm for a sandwhich. Saw the sign and figured I would try it. Walked in and the place was empty except for the 65 year old man who was about to sit me until I changed my mind in eating there. YES, this review was made without trying the merchandise. Seems like a front for some organized crime outfit.

    Ugh, what an unpleasant experience. It amazes me that this place is in business. Rude service and terrible breakfast sandwiches. We asked for a donut with our egg sandwich, but he just gave us the sandwiches and moved on to the next costumer and we decided not to bother asking for the donuts. Keep driving!

    I stopped in the store to grab a cup of coffee for my dad, a disabled veteran, who was sitting in his car outside of the store. The owner told me that I would have to move the car which was in a disabled parking spot. I told him that I just wanted to buy a cup of coffee, we would leave immediately after the purchase, and that the car had a license plate indicating that the driver is disabled. The owner of the store responded by saying "You need to move your car, faggot."

  • Carol P.

    Went in to purchase a donut and coffee. Also had to use the restroom. I was informed that there was no "public restroom". OK...you're between two interstates and many paying customer might have to use the facilities. Since there was no sense in purchasing the food and then making another stop to use a resrtoom, I chose to leave. As I was departing the owner muttered- under his breath, that they're not a rest-stop. They're also not a very good business. What they are is a rude establishment not worth a visit.

    On Monday Nov 18 I was driving back from NJ to Pittsburgh with my 5 yr old daughter. Just arriving Carlise PA my daughter was throwing up for the third time. With no where to go I quickly turned into the Donut Connection an stopped abruptly so I can take care of her. Big Mistake! About 2 minutes later and cleaning up goop and a sick child, here comes the owner into the lot. I was blocking him but he could go around. Instead of checking to see the problem he proceeded to scream at me! I told him to give me a second to move my car..he continued to yell and scream at me. Once I moved the car, he screamed at me .."get the hell out of my lot! you are on private property, get out! I am going to call the police??you are trespassing" unbelievable...all this while my 5 year old is standing in the car looking at him and hearing him... I called the police on him and took care of my daughter and got out of his lot.......if he reacts this way to a mother with a sick child in the parking lot not bothering anyone...I could only imagine his service...so think twice!!!!
