Krispy Kreme (Fulton)

Click right to take a look around…

New York just New Yorks, everywhere you go, people are New Yorking. Yes, this Krispy Kreme in Fulton Transit Center, a major subway terminal, has finally inspired me to turn New York into a verb. Why it’s taken me this long is the real question. This Krispy Kreme is at one of the best avenues for viewing New York flying by foot...a stop for donuts or for bubble tea at the immediately opposing Gong-Cha. “Abdul,” a kid, probably around high school age, asked an approacher as he gripped his backpack straps. “I can’t believe it. Nooooooo,” he continued in light-hearted astonishment. They one-arm embraced and melted into a group. While definitely not emotional, you could tell that these two really hadn’t seen each other in ages—well, ages in young people time. You can oscillate between drooling over the donut case and staring out into the Fulton Transit Center mezzanines while you wait for your coffee, sweet, or to order, and—once you’re equipped—there are standing tables closer to the northeast entrance of the station (a nice touch for a town that aims to keep you moving). You will probably continue on down the escalator into the depths or out onto Fulton Street, presumably having come from below ground to begin with. Nevertheless, there’s a chance that you might run into an old friend. A reunion in a subway station while picking up Krispy Kreme...I’m having trouble thinking of another town where I could possibly witness such a Mad Libbed moment.

Drink: Iced Coffee

Here’s the craziest part about Krispy Kreme iced coffee: it’s not bad. The times where I’ve literally spit out iced coffee (Madman Espresso, I’m looking at you—but honestly it’s my own fault for ordering iced coffee at an espresso spot) are seared into my brain. Yet, Krispy Kreme—unpromising, not cold brewed for fifteen hours, without any major descriptors—offers a stable and solid 100% Arabica brewed iced coffee blend coffee (“CRISP & REFRESHING”) over ice that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend pairing with your donut of choice.
