Mmm...Donuts: Zombie Coffee and Donuts

Two reviews in one week?! Am I suddenly made of money?  No, definitely not.  But I couldn't resist sticking my head into Zombie Coffee and Donuts while running errands in Columbia Heights.  I mean, really.  It's got "zombie" in the name and I'm a complete sucker for good coffee and baked/fried dough.

The first thing I noticed is that regardless of how many donuts you're getting, they give you a little card to fill out where you can specify coatings (like glaze, frosting, cinnamon sugar, or powdered sugar) and toppings.  I'm a big fan of anything that lets me really build and personalize my order. 


I think the best way to tell the quality of a place's donuts is to eat one plain -- no frills, just donut.  While the yellow color wasn't super appealing, the flavor was sweet and doughy, and the texture was perfect: crispy on the outside, light and fluffy on the inside.

The coffee wasn't much to write home about, but considering that you can get out with a donut and self-serve coffee for less than $5, I'm gonna give it a thumbs up.

8/10 - would recommend
