*Reviewing Delivery*
Passed by this place on a drive out last week and vowed to do take-out or delivery the next weekend...and here we are, belly full of breakfast sandwich writing this review!
Located on Austell Road in Marietta a stand alone building, sits this location of Doughnut In The Box. To be honest, it doesn't look like much from the outside, but you know what they say..."Don't judge a doughnut by the box it comes in!" - I'm pretty sure someone said that, like 93% sure. And in the event someone did say that, they were talking about this place! While I have never been inside, I am glad I didn't judge it and opted to try it instead. We ended up ordering delivery utilizing Uber Eats. We got the best of both worlds and grabbed a couple of breakfast sandwiches and doughnuts, all of which cost us around $16.00, not bad at all.
As mentioned above, they offer more than just doughnuts and coffee with a wide variety of breakfast sandwiches that are really well priced and definitely filling! The sandwiches start at $3.50 for an egg/cheese and go up to $5.95 for a turkey bacon/egg/cheese. All sandwiches can be made on a croissant, french roll or a bagel. I opted for the sausage/egg/cheese on a french roll ($4.95), while my partner got a ham/egg/cheese on a croissant ($4.00). Lastly, we got (2) donuts, one plain glazed and one chocolate along with 1 ounce of doughnut holes. Basic doughnuts run $1.00 each and doughnut holes are by the ounce, starting at $1.25.
The sandwiches were excellent. The french bread was soft and warm, truly a perfect vessel for the sausage/egg and cheese. Something that also impressed me was the ratio of food to french roll. Normally when you get a breakfast sandwich on any kind of baguette style roll, the ends are always void of filling - not here! The meat, egg and cheese went all the way to each end making for a filling and flavorful bite from start to finish.
Overall, I am happy to have stumbled across this place and happy to see they are expanding around the city! We will certainly be back!
