When you think of doughnuts you don't think of chicken and vice versa. So when I heard that they were going to have both in the same place, I was kind of excited. This was back in December 2012. I kept hearing they were opening but no confirmation for months.
They finally opened so I was happy to go see what all the buzz was about. I got a dozen donuts for my coworkers.
They were pretty expensive at $2.00 +/donut (Dunkin Donuts is .99 cents/donut) but you only live once. I will say that you get what you pay for. They were very rich. I only tried the Maple Bacon which is now on the list of favorites. My coworkers also thought they were very good, so it was a thumbs up!
Here is a comparison between Astro's and Dunkin:
I also decided to try the Fried Chicken. I do not have the same opinion as I do about the donuts. I didn't feel a difference between this and what you get from Popeye's/Shoppers Food Warehouse. I would say to try it for yourself and come up with your own opinion.
I also tried the sides and felt the same way.
The only suggestion I would give is that they need to get bags with their logo on them, the blank canvas isn't cutting it.
So when I want to feel rich, it is Astro's to the rescue.
And when I feel frugal, I will go elsewhere.
But I know I have found a new love: Maple Bacon Donuts from Astro's!!
