50 Best Donuts near Arleta

“THEE best donuts, not greasy or oily, fluffy, not too sweet, airy. i've been coming here for over 15 years and they have been consistent every time. If I bring anyone a donut from here they ask where they're from! Sweetest couple runs it, very mom and pop classic donut shop. Make the drive if you're not close by, it's so worth it. I almost don't even want to mention their carrot cake because it's the absolute best and it already sells out but get it if you can! Very LAUSD coffee cake adjacent, soooo delicious.“

“I stopped by this donut shop in the morning after I came back from putting gas. I drive by this donut place so many times because I live int he area but never took the opportunity to visit them until today. I came in the early morning so I was the only car in the plaza. If you come later in the day then it will be tough to find a spot because it's a very small lot with limited parking.

When I walked inside the place, a lady working greeted me and started asking if I wanted something to drink or am I going to order food. I told her I was looking at what donut they had. I went with the glazed donut, chocolate glazed donut and twisted donut. After I ordered the donuts, I saw that they had bagels which is what I wanted in the first place. It was on top of the counter so I ordered the jalapeno cheese bagel for my wife, asked for it to be toasted and the cream cheese on the side. I wanted a blueberry bagel but she told me they don't have that.

If you're planning on paying by card then there will be an additional cost. It's not that much but something to be aware of. They had a decent amount of options for drinks with boba and also food. I stuck with the donut and bagel, I thought the donut were good and my wife enjoyed her bagel, just remember to eat it when it's still hot.“

“Everyday my bf buys something from here and I've never had anything to complain about except that the jalapenos in the breakfast sandwiches are spicy, but that's not really a bad thing. Their donuts are fresh and the breakfast sandwiches are 🔥 fire! Plus they have 3 CA lottery vending machines and more scratchers at the register. They have been open for business forever for a reason.“

“I love it here! I always come in the morning at around 5:30AM after I do laundry and they always have a large variety of doughnuts! This place is family own and run which is really awesome, the only problem I have is with the parking, its so hectic to find a spot and there is a lot of drunkards from the liquor store but other than that this place is so great! Highly Recommend!!“

“K’s is awesome! I placed a few large orders on short notice (8+ dozen donuts) and their staff filled them quickly and without any issues. The woman behind the counter was so sweet and took amazing care of me while I was in her shop. My clients loved the donuts and I got a few very solid Vietnamese iced coffees.

I travel to the west coast for business a few times per year, and I guarantee that I’ll be coming back to K’s next time I’m in town!“

“We had a wonderful experience at Donut Hut in Burbank! We stopped by early in the morning and got some freshly made, delicious donuts. The display is incredibly neat and colorful, and everything tasted amazing. The owners and helpers are so kind and friendly, making the visit even better. My son absolutely loves their donuts. Highly recommend checking them out!

Plus try their sandwich and coffee too! Support local business!“

“I've been coming here for the last 4 years and it feels like home. Debbie is literally the most caring person I've ever met and they truly care of their customers. My husband and I come here pretty much every weekend and get sandwiches and iced coffees. The prices are good and the food is delicious. This is a neighborhood staple and you will return!“

“Mike at Mama Donuts decorated our donuts as a turntable for our daughter’s 50th birthday. It was a vinyl record party theme! The donuts were amazing! The decor, the taste. They fit the theme and they were scrumptious. Mike was so great! He was responsive and his customer service was excellent. I highly recommend Mama’s Donuts whenever you want donuts!“

“This spot is seriously one of the hidden gems around. The food is ALWAYS fresh, stacked, and made with care. Look at this sandwich, thick egg, fresh avocado, crisp vegetables, quality bread, everything balanced perfectly. You can tell they don’t cut corners here.

But honestly, the best part is the people. These ladies are some of the kindest workers I’ve met. They actually remember me and my order even if I haven’t been there for weeks, and they always treat me with genuine warmth and respect. That kind of service is rare now. You don’t feel like “just another customer” here.

The shop has that old-school neighborhood feeling where people actually care about their regulars. Great food, great energy, hardworking people, and consistently good service every single time.

If you want a place that deserves support, it’s this one. Much love and respect to the ladies running this shop, you can feel the heart they put into it. 🙏“

“fresh donuts made in house!! can't beat that..“

“I had a taste for some donuts and had seen this place heading home. Well this morning I went over there to check it out. The visit was quick, the service was prompt and the staff was very friendly. There’s not a a lot of room inside, and while you could sit there and eat, you’re probably better off walking out with a box. Also the parking lot is quite small, so maybe there’s 6-7 parking spots.“

“Why despair when you can just donut?“

“Mochinut consists of a wide array of unique flavors and shapes of donuts. Every time I go, I always get surprised by a flavor I haven’t noticed before. The donuts are soft and flavorful, the corn dog is crispy on the outside and the cheesy is stretchy, and the boba is perfectly sweetened.“

“I absolutely love Star Donut! Every visit is a delightful experience. Their donuts are always fresh, soft, and perfectly sweet, with a great variety to choose from. The glazed and maple bars are my personal favorites, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of their options.

Beyond the donuts, the shop offers a nice selection of sandwiches, boba tea, and smoothies—perfect for a quick lunch or snack. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making the atmosphere warm and inviting.

It’s also worth noting that their prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Whether you’re grabbing a quick coffee and donut on the go or sitting down to enjoy your treat, Star Donut is a gem in Reseda. Highly recommend it to anyone in the area!“

“Finally! A good local donut shop in the neighborhood!! I came too late for the blueberry fritter, near closing time, so I splurged on the apple fritter. And a glazed buttermilk bar. I will definitely be back for the blueberry fritter, and the blueberry cake donut.

Both I had were tasty and brought me back to childhood memories of these two favorites.

Easy free parking in the lot right in front with easy access from the side street, Tyrone.“

“the apple fritter is incredible. the donut holes are very good, i wish they had more halal options for breakfast, my friend got the ham bacon and egg bagel. I really love their Thai Tea but I added a little sugar, it doesn't come very sweet, which is good for most people“

“I was in the mood for some donuts last night and I stopped by around 5 pm. Was greeted really warmly and ordered a dozen donuts to go. The entire atmosphere was very comforting and the staff were very kind. The donuts smelled very fragrant and warm. When I got home I had a raspberry jelly donut and I was absolutely blown away. I have NEVER tasted such a perfect donut in my entire donut eating life lol. The donut had a perfect amount of glaze, the raspberry jelly was sweet and tasted fairly real (not artificial) and the donut was super soft and delicious. I highly recommend checking them out.“

“Jim's is my new favorite spot 😋
I've been coming here for a few months and I cant get enough! The staff is so nice I order the same drink but them just remembering my order from memory is what makes me feel like home.
I recommend this place always 👌 👏“

“Picked up 4 dozen doughnuts at 6am last week for a special event and not only were the doughnuts delicious and fresh, but the customer service was fantastic. They even brought all of the boxes out for us and put them in the car. Highly recommend this place!“

“Great donuts , coffee and bobas family owned super nice family ❤️🙏🏻“

“Had the best experience coming here for the first time! The young man that helped my family and I was very nice and generous. On top of that, the quality of the chicken sandwich, breakfast burrito, orange juice and the fluffy donuts were top notch.
We’ll definitely be going back for more! 🍩“

“The donuts are as big as my head! Highly recommend a dozen. 🤣😂🤣“

“Came here two times in 2 days because food was great, owner was friendly and has a sense of humor :) I had a apple crumb doughnut first time and it tasted fresh and delicious!

Second day I got a turkey sandwitch with everything on it and it was SOOO GOOD!! Cheaper than subway and tasted a hundred times better and fresh! It hit the spot. And its affordable. Highly HIGHLY recommend you stop by and support this local business if you can! A+“

“It's been awhile since I've been here due to the pandemic. I've always stopped in after finishing my laundry in the little shopping plaza. Today was no exception, and man... it's as good as I remembered. Ordered my usual turkey & ham croissant (everything on it) with some OJ. This huge baked croissant filled with cheese, jalapeño and ham caught my eye, so I also got that to go. The sweet owner threw in a free donut as well! Took them home to enjoy. Fresh, comforting and delicious ♡.“

“I go there every day I used to go for Mr Coffee and donut then one day I was treated to a tuna sandwich and I must say it was delicious and the amount of tuna they put on your sandwich is ridiculous, you almost want to tell him not to put on so much meat let the price they charge for the tuna sandwich makes me keep my mouth shut LOL nice ladies good place to go“

“Fresh donuts that are made in house! You can see and smell it every morning. Definite repeat spot“

“The donuts are delicious & fresh! The owner & staff are soo freindly! They also have a variety of other pastry & fresh squeezed oj! Luv the donut queen shop!“

“classic family-run donut shop that does things the right way. donuts are fresh, soft, and not overly sweet, with that perfect balance you expect from a proper neighborhood spot. you can tell they’re made with care, not mass-produced nonsense.

prices are super affordable, service is genuinely friendly, and the whole place has that old-school local vibe that’s hard to find now.“

“Love me a good powdered lemon jelly donut! Brings me back to my childhood when my mom used to bring us a dozen donuts in the morning and I would run to get the powdered donut before my sister. Donuts are always fresh and delicious - never stale.

Staff is always quick and friendly. You can really tell this donut shop is filled with locals from the community as they would know their regular customers by name.

Great little donut shop and love to support small as often as we can. Will definitely be back!“

“I go there almost on the daily to buy a Black Milk tea with soy and boba, outstanding staff and service.“

“First time here, ordered the ham, egg, and cheese croissant with avocado and it was amazing. And the store had a full house that morning so that told me exactly what I was walking into and I’m happy for that. I will definitely be coming back.“

“KINDNESS of Jolly donuts employees speaks volumes. This particular day had lunch and☕and left to catch my ride home but unto my surprise my ride was delayed. So I went back to Jolly donuts and asked to use their ?they allowed me to use their?A HUGE Thank You?Showing kindness can impactsomeone's day, so I encourage someone today to reach out to someone who asks for help it wil have a ripple effect.“

“Fresh Donuts has been our favorite local donut shop for years. The donuts are always fresh (just like the name says!), and we've honestly never had a bad one. Our favorites are the glazed buttermilk, the cronuts, the bow ties, and I can never resist one of the cake donuts.

What really keeps us coming back, though, is the people. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming. They know us by name, ask how my husband is if I come in by myself, and always remember little details about our lives. It's the kind of genuine customer service that's becoming harder and harder to find.

My husband grew up in the Valley and has been coming here since he was a kid, so it's become a special little tradition for us too. If you're looking for a friendly neighborhood donut shop with consistently great donuts, Fresh Donuts is definitely worth a stop. We love supporting this little local gem!“

“Steve's donuts are some of the best donuts I've had. I got a chocolate glazed and a regular glazed. The donuts were big, very moist with a slight chewy texture which is absolutely phenomenal. These were way better than Dunkin donuts. Can't even compare and the owner threw in a coupe of freebie donut holes as well!. Definitely coming back here for my donuts.“

“The owner was getting ready to close but was kind enough to make me a croissant breakfast sandwich with turkey. It was fabulous! He toasted the croissant 🥐 and the sandwich was still warm when I got home. Reasonably priced and highly recommend! Thank you 👍😊“

“This restaurant is truly impressive!
Their Breakfast Burrito is hearty and made with the freshest ingredients. The eggs, cheese, hash browns, and grilled onions come together perfectly, and you can choose from a variety of meats///ham, turkey, bacon, pastrami, or chicken

all cooked just right, offering a rich and diverse flavor
I especially love that everything is made to order
you can really taste the freshness in every bite. The aroma of eggs and grilled onions is irresistible. And to top it off, the coffee is brewed with a high-end espresso machine, making it smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced.
⭐Highly recommended for anyone who love fresh, customizable meals paired with premium coffee and a satisfying breakfast experience!“

“I didn’t expect a pastry run to turn into a full-on core memory… but this place pulled it off.

The second you walk in, the smell hits you like a warm hug: vanilla, buttery dough, fresh glaze, and just a hint of cinnamon. It’s the kind of aroma that instantly upgrades your mood. The display case is straight-up edible art. Every donut is perfectly golden, beautifully puffed, and somehow manages to be light and indulgent at the same time.

The donuts deserve their own love letter. The glaze is flawless: glossy, delicate, and sweet without being overpowering. The dough is pillowy soft with that perfect slight chew that lets you know it’s made right. And the filled donuts? They actually mean it when they say “filled.” No sad little pocket. No empty promise. It’s generous, balanced, and ridiculously satisfying.

The freshness is unreal. Nothing tastes greasy or heavy or mass-produced. These donuts taste handcrafted, like someone back there genuinely cares about every batch. You can taste the pride in them.

Now let’s talk about the real show-stealer: the croissants. Everyone needs to know the croissants here are absolutely splendid. Flaky in that crisp, shatter-in-the-best-way kind of way, buttery without being greasy, and soft inside with that perfect layered pull. The kind of croissant where one bite makes you pause and go, “Oh… this is the standard now.” If you come here and skip the croissants, you’re missing a top-tier pastry moment.

Customer service was just as impressive. Friendly, patient, and clearly proud of what they make, which only makes the whole experience better.

I’ve had donuts in different cities, at all hours, from all kinds of places, and nothing comes close. This isn’t just a donut shop. It’s an experience, and it will absolutely ruin other donuts for you in the best way.

10/10. I would fight someone over the last glazed. And I’d win with a croissant in my other hand.“

“I had passed by this spot many times since I moved to the area in November and I finally decided to try it this morning on a walk with my dog. Not only are the people there friendly, but the quality of the food is just fantastic. I ordered a bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a french roll and holy shit. The sandwich itself was huuggeee, the bacon was thick and crunchy, the egg was salted to perfection, the cheese was the right amount of melted and the bread was warm and perfectly toasted. THEY ALSO ADD PICKLES AND CHERRY PEPPERS TO THEM!!! You could tell they put effort into their food. Will definitely be going back to try more items on their menu!!!“

“Been coming here for a few years now and have always been happy. Simple but good selection of doughnuts. I'm partial to their apple fritters, which are huge and heavy, and exactly what you'd hope for. The lady who runs the place is always so nice and she has a great report with all her regulars, myself included. The prices are very reasonable, too, especially for the fresh juice drinks! I like the sandwiches, too. They're what you'd expect at just about any doughnut shop, but they've always treated me right, and I like that you can add avocado or jalapenos if you want. Great little place.“

“Excellent food and friendly staff. This place is the best.“

“This is a great donut shop if you're looking for something early in the morning with different options as well. They have a decent amount of smoothies and juice selection. They also have lottery tickets if you play that. I stopped by this morning because I was craving some donuts. I went with the mini donuts and the price was very reasonable.

The lady working this morning was very friendly with me and provided great customer service. The parking lot doesn't have that many spots but if you come at a good time then you might find one.“

“I was craving a breakfast croissant with an iced matcha and found this place. They had exactly what I wanted! I didn't see the matcha on the menu but I asked the lady anyway and they had it! And omg it was really good. Exactly how I like my matcha. Nice and sweet lol. And the breakfast croissant was big and tasted so yummy. Two other people came in while I was there and for both of them it seemed like they were regulars because as soon as they came in she already knew their order and I loved that mom and pop type feel. My breakfast croissant and iced matcha was $15 which I feel like is a very reasonable price for what I got... I will definitely be back! 🤗“

“I've been coming here a few times a week for five years. Me, my gf and son have become friends with the owner. The sandwiches are fantastic! The donuts are always fresh and taste amazing! Boba here is always great! This place is a constant winner!“

“Amazing Owner so kind they give free donuts to children every day as a way to help parents that may not have the money to give their children that little treat do to inflation. How sweet is that. What a big heart. Please buy donuts from them.“

“fresh pressed juice make daily and kolache“

“Just walked in here for the first time. I need breakfast and donuts. Ordered 5 bagel sandwiches and box of donuts. I have to say this place is super friendly and amazing. Appreciate the love! Thank you for the kind and genuine service.

Love from Savior Towing <3“

“i used to come in here with my mom as a kid because I lived down the street. When I biked over by myself from my old house (on Lorne Street), the owner would recognize me and give me my order on the house. I never abused this but I would make sure to always stop by and say hello. I don't know if it's under the same ownership but this old shop made me happy and I'm glad it's still kicking.“

“Stop In Donuts is exactly what you hope for when you walk into a neighborhood donut shop. The owner has a genuinely friendly, easygoing disposition that makes you feel welcome from the moment you step in.
If you like supporting local, no-frills, family-owned businesses that treat customers like neighbors, this place is worth the stop. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in the area.“

“My husband and I found this place about a year ago, after dropping off our cat for surgery. It was early in the morning and needless to say, we were extremely worried. We decided before heading home to go to a nearby breakfast place, and we found this place.We've been frequenting Donuts Park ever since. The lady who runs it is extremely nice and kind, and we love chatting with her and her kids. She clearly works hard, and the food is so good! Her egg and cheese croissant sandwich is my favorite breakfast sandwich ever, and the pastries are so yummy.Her food is comforting, the place is small but cozy. Our cat's surgery was a success at the end, and her food and warm energy is so inviting and really cheered us up. Please visit and support your local small shop!(Please note that these pictures were taken after 12pm today, so pastries were nearly out of stock! They are too yummy!!)“

“i can say so much about tasty’s. their donuts are perfection. i always get exactly what i want! the breakfast sandwiches are soooo tasty!! i usually get the ham, egg, cheese and bacon croissant, and it never disappoints :) HUGE fan of their thai iced tea. im always greeted with a smile and wonderful service no matter who’s working the front! prices are great, especially considering the quality treats you’ll get here. if you have a chance, stop by! it is right on burbank blvd, so depending on the time of day it could be a little loud. it’s never been an issue though! i love tasty’s 🫶“
