50 Best Donuts near Albany

“The location or area is a little rundown, but the food and service was excellent. I think this are the best donuts I had in a long time. One thing I like about this donuts is that the bread is denser than other donuts I had before. Almost the same density as muffins. They also have a variety of flavors. I am a mail carrier in San Rafael, and one of my business customer gives out donuts every Friday. I finally asked him where he got them from and he told me it was from this location. so on the weekend, we made a 25 minute trip to this place, got donuts and then went to the beach. Perfect day for a picnic.“

“I always get the 12 pack for parties at my house and they’re a hit! Every flavor slaps. I would make sure to allocate time for pickups because there’s only one attendant and if you’re behind someone getting a lot of donuts, you need to be patient.“

“OMG!!! Time stopped as I bit into a donut savant cronut for the very first time. I live in N. Sacramento but I am fantasizing about the next trip to #oakland. You people are truly doing god’s work here. Carry on😋😘🙏🏿❤️“

“Ordered half a dozen and couple of chocolate donuts from them. I wish they would have been less sugary and slightly bit healthier but I don't think there is a lot of offers available.

Other than that,
Reasonably priced and quite tasty“

“No doubt the best donuts I've ever had. Great donuts and breakfast bagel sandwiches. Love this place. Every time I work in Oakland, I visit this place. Great people are working here, too. The only downside is that this is the only location, and they're closed on Sunday.“

“Een klein zaakje achter het Hilton hotel. Ze accepteren alleen cash. Ze hebben heerlijke verschillende donuts en muffins voor een goede prijs. Daarnaast kun je belegde bagels krijgen die ze ter plekke vers maakt. Ze zijn heerlijk. Prijs tussen de 7 en 10 dollar, ligt eraan wat je voor beleg kiest.
De plek ligt net op de rand van waar veel daklozen verblijven waardoor de sfeer wat minder prettig aanvoelt. Maar de verkoopsters zijn erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam.“

“Vegan Donut Gelato is PHENOMENAL! My wife and I loved our brief stop this week. The donuts are massive and well worth the price. Friendly service and the woman who served us was great. Highly recommended!“

“I go here for their croissants!!!! I'm a croissant lover. And as we know they aren't that cheap. Many places are charging you up to $5 for ONE croissant!. Well I went to try Lee's and I've haven't gone anywhere else whenever I'm in the mood for my carb treat. First their croissants are HUGE secondly, they're only $3.75! Depending on how you like you're croissants but this place for me are the best. They're not very flaky and a little doughy but I love that. As far a doughnuts I've only had their doughnut holes which were soft and fresh. And they were cheap for the dozen compared to all the other donut shops I've gone too! So if you want your money's worth I recommend coming here!“

“Donuts, cookies, french bread and coffee. Its a bit small but the food is good and cheap.

Kid-friendliness: Kids love it

Wheelchair accessibility: There's no steps but entrance is narrow so a wheelchair will be tight but there's seating in the back“

“This place gives off San Fran vibes and I love it. The staff is super friendly and welcoming. I had their french cruller and I think that it has crack in it—I was addicted after the first bite. Please stop by and support this neighborly little donut shop. My new favorite lil shop.“

“Stopped for breakfast one morning; what a delight! Tasty filling on a scrumptious bagel. The sight of all the donuts and pastries had us vowing to return. Which we did, scoring a box of various donuts and pastries and the biggest croissants I’ve ever seen. Definitely worth a return visit.“

“My boyfriend and I were checking out stiiizy, we were headed home and wanted some food. We stopped in because of the outside charm, the owners I believe might be husband and wife, anywho we got doughnuts, their lunch special of burger fries n a drink, plus a bacon egg n cheese bagel ( biggest bagels I have ever seen)

We don't live in El Cerrito, so it was nice to see something that has been around for almost 40 years. Bless you both, we will be stopping by again
Voted best doughnuts in El Cerrito I can see why.“

“Our family love Dynamo cafe. Previous owner made place cozy and friendly. Now there is a new owner and so far the taste of donuts hasn’t changed. About coffee, funnily enough it depends on the barista. It might be the same Vanilla Latte or (Lavander before), but some barista can make it a bit sweeter and the other less sweet. It’s a street level place so it’s easy to come in even for strollers or people on wheelchairs. They have a big variety of donuts, so everyone will find their favorite. My personal choice is classic vanilla donut with chocolate on top as well as vegan spice chocolate.
There is always a line, there is a good foot traffic so you can order from the window and take it to go or sit inside, or even on the quiet backyard. They are kids and dogs friendly!“

“This hole in the wall donut shop has the best apple fritters in the world according to my lady. I think their other donuts are great too. Make sure to bring cash and to lock your car. It is right off of the freeway. Getting back on the freeway can be confusing, but it isn't far.“

“Great products. I just wish I could figure out when they are actually open. Then seem to close quite a bit.“

“Some of the best donuts in the bayarea and the owner's are very nice people. Love there range of variety. There jelly filled donuts keep me coming back.

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Great old fashion donuts“

“The MOCHI DONUTS!! Enough said“

“Nice chill spot. Staff can be a bit impatient, but don't blame them(they are really nice), there are so many unique offerings that people have a tendency to stand there staring (not joking). So if they're staring at you waiting and others are staring at you, you should probably just ask them to make you a box. Hot chocolate is SERIOUSLY hot chocolately. Make sure you get a mug and enjoy your pastry.“

“I have gone to Donut King several times in the am. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The donuts are really good, and I love the croissants. I just which that they stayed open a little later. I will definitely go back before going elsewhere. Parking is always full, but I find a way to get a parking spot.“

“The donuts here are so fresh and nice. The donut holes are a crowd pleaser and the ham cheese and jalapeno croissants are amazing. One of my favourite breakfasts with a nice cup of coffee. The glazed and the sugar donuts are super soft

Don't drive past this place stop and grab a donut and a coffee. You will be happy you did“

“Marshmallow fluff;) Loved the Milkbomb sandwich! Will definitely go again;)“

“The fruit is incredibly FRESH! The mango is ripe and sweet—the perfect honey orange color. The are generous with the ham, egg, and cheese croissant too?. The prices are reasonable and affordable!! The owners are so friendly! The atmosphere is homey. Come support this family-owned business☺️

Vegetarian options: They have a variety of fruit and food.

Dietary restrictions: They have a variety of fruit and food

Parking: Plenty of free parking. No need to worry about that just come on over.

Kid-friendliness: Extremely! They would love it :)

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s spacious!“

“Amazing donuts that are fresh and soft. Their Vietnamese coffee is also to die for, but the cherry on top is the amazing staff and service. Every-time I go I am greeted with warmth and hospitality that keeps me coming. I just moved in the neighborhood and am excited to be a regular!“

“Best vegan donut in the Bay Area! I was introduced to Pepple's via their cake donuts at cafes like Philz, which are outstanding, but their raised donuts are what really take the cake! The texture is spot on and my non-veg husband didn't put together that they were vegan until he saw me eat one! (They also do not skimp on the filling in the jelly donut, mine was bleeding raspberry jam as I ate it, LOL. Get a napkin!) The new Adeline location is small and geared towards pickup only (no seating, so I guess no more brunch). Bring cash with you as a backup, as when I was there their internet was down (even hotspotting wasn't working) and the kind lady behind the counter mentioned that this has been a recurring issue with this new space, so don't show up with only plastic in your wallet! Right now, the location is easy to miss as there's still paper up in some of the windows etc. but I am looking forward to returning for more phenomenal donuts! I hope they start offering their raised donuts all the time instead of just Friday, Saturday, and Sunday!“

“Nice people working there and nice new owner. Only issue is they don’t always warm up your food, that’s alright tho. Glad they accept card now. I feel like they should add more desserts like different donuts or stuff like that you know more variety.“

“Needed to pick up a quick dessert after enjoying the most amazing pizza a few doors down at Outta Sight. Gateway drew us in with their stacks of pink donut boxes--an immediate sign that this is a legit donut place. Our go-tos: blueberry and crunch which were immediately recognizable in the glass case. The lady behind register was very friendly and before we could assume it was cash only, she brought the POS out for us to tap and go. Gotta love it when a humble mom & pop keeps up w/tech. One excited bite out of each donut and we knew that Gateway would be our fav shop in the city. These donuts are AMAZING. They're fresh but more interestingly, they're sweet without being sickening (think opposite spectrum of a Krispy Kreme). I'm sure there's some kind of sorcery involved behind the recipe, but whatever they're doing is incredible. Even the small detail like the blueberry colored dough inside the donut is testament to their special touch. By the way, 2 donuts only cost us $3.75! What a deal.“

“If your looking for the freshest donuts in Richmond, open 24 hours a day, then stop by Andy's Donuts. These Donuts are so soft and fresh. You won't regret it...
WARNING: DONT GO TO THIS AREA LATE AT NIGHT. The area is crime riden, especially late at night and early in the morning. Be careful if you do. Be aware of your surroundings in the early hours. Please.“

“The donuts are fresh, fluffy and melt in your mouth. Randomly ordered from here on UberEats expecting average but finding exceptional! So many donut places with stale product… not here! I had the donut holes, coconut glazed donut and croissant… all excellent, will order again!“

“We love this quality doughnuts the owner and the stuff is really nice and friendly my daughter loves it. Also great price.

Kid-friendliness: They gave my daughter extra doughnuts as a regular costumer! Goodjob they know to work around kids“

“I love the pho noodle soup, ban mi sandwiches and curry chicken with rice -- solid vietnamese dishes here. Great take out and carry away options for the busy working professionals. There is also some seating in the shop at the front by the windows, and in the back as well.“

“Excellent Service and Food is Hot And Well Prepared!“

“I am use to hometown family run bakery donuts. This is the place in Richmond. None of these frufru things. Great apple fritters..one feeds 2 grown men, great raised donuts and my favorites old fashion glazed cake donuts...glad I found you!“

“These donuts are delicious. They are perfect with a cup of coffee. Iwould definitely recommend getting them.“

“My son wanted a cheese danish, and theirs was double-sized. Because it was big, when the server retrieved it, the thing broke. She ended up giving us a perfect one, and then included the broken one for free- a nice surprise! So we enjoyed 2 for the price of 1. Great food, great service!“

“Omg best corndogs(the potato original and cheese and a bit of sugar dusted ?) I’ve ever had in my life and it was very reasonable priced. Also their strawberry ? lemonade with popping boba pearls is just ? Milk tea is delicious too. The young lady working the register is very nice and patient with you while ordering. I’ve yet to try their mochinuts but they look beautiful and delicious!It is small inside so you may want to avoid the time all the school kids gets out. Otherwise it’s super cute and very clean inside.My family and I are so happy they’re in our community and look forward to eating there very soon!

Kid-friendliness: It’s super cute inside and they have lots of sweet or savory options for kids and teens.“

“Those donuts are so fresh and amazing I still go there even though the lady at the counter has no customer service skills whatsoever. She didn't acknowledge me when I entered. I had to say hello more than once to get her out of her trance. Then she was very impatient while I selected half of a dozen options. But these are very fresh donuts so.“

“The best donuts ?!! I love them, the donuts are prepared daily, they are fresh, forget about buying hard donuts HERE THEY ARE ALWAYS FRESH!! There is variety, but I like the chocolate ones ?‍↔️ Customer service is nice.

Pd. They also sell breakfast and coffee.“

“good 🍔 tasty doughnuts and the ☕ is hot. also has nice service.. I go there every day and I love it“

“This has been a must stop for coffee and donuts for the past couple weeks. They have multiple choices for addative for coffee, including creamers and raw sugar. It is awesome they have mini versions of apple fritters and cinnamon buns. I love apple fritters, but it is hard to finish big ones. With I split them between meals or days. They also have some lunch choices and other beverages. Oh yeah, they are cash only. But don't worry, they have an ATM if you need it.“

“The MOCHI DONUTS!! Enough said“

“No frills, decent normal donut shop. I stop in a couple days a week to grab coffee and a donut after I get off the bus to head into work nearby. They usually hook it up with some extra donut holes, love this spot. From the outside and peeking in it’s not much to look at but who cares. Great donuts!! I notice a lot of people order breakfast sandwiches here but haven’t tried myself.“

“I love this place, have only tried breakfast sandwiches & donuts they are delicious. It's mom & pop shop which I prefer. I feel the love in food & customer service is always welcoming which is missing from so many places. My coworkers all ordered different food options & love them as well Thankyou all star

Parking: Theirs parking garage in the alley by Twitter building & another parking garage if you can't find meter parking“

“A nice restaurant in SF that you can’t tell from the outside. It happens to be near our hotel and the price was great. Croissant was $3 and it was quite good. They have a lot Asian dishes and also some American food too. Asian dishes are best in my opinion although not very authentic and some are quite oily, but delicious and affordable compared to nearby options.“

“Delicious and extraordinary.“

“Sometimes you need fresh coffee and a goddamn apple fritter right meow. If that's the case don't forget to get a maple bar filled with custard. Listen fat stuffs, don't quibble 'bout it. Get your shit together. Pay the nice lady and keep it moving. Can't ever miss with a spot like this.“

“That's a great donut. She has been doing this business for more than 25 years. It's very hard to pass this donut store and NOT buy some.

Parking: First come- first serve. If you wait you can find the parking space after 3 minutes

Wheelchair accessibility: There is some parking for accessibility“

“This place is AWESOME! Being vegan, I asked what was available. I was told the plain cake donut, the sugar donut and the crumb donut were all vegan! I grabbed a crumb and sugar and they blew me away. Absolutely wonderful. My partner, who is not vegan, got an egg and cheese sandwich that was HUGE and delicious! We also shared a lemonade that was the perfect balance of sweet and sour. I can not recommend this place enough. If not for the food, then for the excellent service. Definitely needs to be a stop when visiting San Fran:)“

“Lee's Donuts is a rare find, and I can’t stop recommending it! Not only do they serve some of the lightest, fluffiest donuts at unbelievably affordable prices, but they also have a mouth-watering range of other foods that keep you coming back. Their Oreo and M&M milkshakes are to die for—rich, creamy, and packed with flavor!

What's amazing is that they also offer Chinese food, meatballs, veggies, fried fish, chow mein, and fries, all perfectly cooked and insanely delicious. It’s like having several top-tier restaurants in one! And to top it off, the people at the counter are so warm and welcoming; they make you feel right at home. If you’re anywhere near Lee's Donuts, you have to stop by—you’re in for a treat!

Parking: There isnt alot of parking, but people come in and out alot, so you will get a spot withim 1 and a half minutes.“
