50 Best Donuts near East Los Angeles

“I've been coming here for a while for a few specific things:

-Vietnamese Iced Coffee, it's consistently good. Never had a bad one from here. At 5$ it's a pretty good deal.

-Ham & Cheese Croissant is always solid too whether it's cold or warmed up. Again, never had a bad one from here. I believe it's about 4/4.50$.

-Their filled donuts (Bavarian & Raspberry) are so good too! $1.75 each if I recall correctly.

Service is always great too, I don't know the dudes name (I catch him working mornings), but he's always friendly and efficient at getting your order ready even when he's got a few people in the shop.“

“I always go to this place to order the giant donut! The service is great and the people are friendly. Whenever I tell them the donut is for a birthday, they hook it up and add donut holes in the middle to put the candle and an extra donut as a gift. ❤“

“Great costumer service and very friendly staff.“

“Visited here today from Pittsburgh, PA and these are, without a doubt, the best donuts I’ve ever tasted in my life (I’ve tasted a lot 🤣😝). I don’t usually review places but that’s how amazing these are….“

“This Donut shop is definitely by far the best in town. GREAT costumer service and very delicious food and donuts. The burritos that are served here in this Donut shop are the best burritos that I have ever tasted in all of California . The donuts and croissant’s are also very good and taste great . I definitely recommend this Donut shop to anyone who is looking for good tasty donuts , burritos and croissants. Julian and Jennifer are the owners of this Donut shop , and they are extremely nice people and they care about their costumers.“

“Absolutely in love with this place. Gigi and her mom have built something special here. The BEST gluten free donuts I have ever had. I’ve been gluten free for five years and have been consistently disappointed with crumbly, dry donuts. Not anymore. This place has changed the game. Their donuts are perfectly moist and amazingly flavorful. I am beaming after visiting this place. Easily my new favorite spot and I will definitely be coming back. Impeccable vibes from the super chill baristas.“

“So yum!! My partner and I bought a range of donuts and they were all amazing! By far the best donuts we have ever had. Very reasonably priced aswell. The cinnamon roll donut was a standout. So soft and fluffy and the flavour is perfect. We got seconds for the way home 😍“

“First time having vegan donuts and Andres was super patience and welcoming. I recommend the rites of sprinkles, the jelly sound, and the promise ring. They were all delicious. I also had a cold brew with oat milk that was refreshing.“

“Best donuts this side of the Mississippi! Returning early 2019. YAY!!!“

“很美味的甜品，美食虽好可不要贪多呀“

“I'm not from here but this morning I had a really yummy omelet and the donuts are so good the people that work there are very hospitable and friendly thank you“

“donuts are always Fresh n good“

“Was at an event in Whittier and was craving a donut after. I didn't want an old chain like Dunkin or Yum Yum. I am so happy I came across Cherri's Donuts! The place was very clean and bright. I was happy to see that they had blueberry cake donuts because they are my absolute favorite. They are by far the best ones I have ever had. So airy, light, and not too sweet. The ones I usually get are denser and sweeter. Now that I've had this one, I will be dreaming about it! Unfortunately, I don't live near the area so won't be able to go as often. The man helping us out was very nice and funny! I can't wait to go back!“

“I have been going to Rose’s since the early 90’s, I even met my husband there while in high school. Rose’s is a staple of our community, always a kind face, a kind welcome and conversation to be had. Wonderful people, delicious food! Unlike any other!“

“My spouse and I come here at least once a week. We really enjoy the sandwiches and the iced coffee (strong and sweet, just how I like it). They stuff the sandwiches with lots of ingredients but will leave off any ingredient that you want and even give you pickled peppers on the side. We don't understand why anyone would even go to the Dunkin down the way when you can go to this place. The donuts are big and fresh here. They have such a variety of food and drinks (like fresh juices) that I'm amazed every time. If you think you won't find something you'll like, go in and at least see the menus on the wall.“

“delicious 😋 clean well done“

“Love this gems from walking in , friendly service and quality. Jalapeño bagel was yummy and my latte was perfect . I forgot to ask to make it less sweet, but it was perfect like I want it too.“

“Alright, this might be the best donut shop anywhere around this part of town. It’s family owned and operated, no hipster shit just OGs with a classic and good shop. The donuts are really good in my opinion but the apple fritter is to die for.. so bomb. They have a big refrigerator with basically every drink you can think of and even in the middle of summer all of the drinks are super cold, an underrated detail missed by most businesses owners. Stop by after a work out or bike ride and get an apple fritter and a cold can of coke, you won’t be disappointed.“

“Best coffee, and good prices. Love the food there.“

“The workers are very lively and nice people! They have a good variety of foods and drinks and their donuts and other types of foods are priced well and are very cheap unlike most donut shops nowadays. I was surprised how light, fluffy, and perfect their glaze donuts were. An easy and relaxing spot if you’re looking for a cheap and tasty brunch!👍“

“I do really like it here the owner is super friendly not rude like other owners, his lady making the sandwiches is super nice as well and helps as a Spanish translator, if that helps, the donuts are absolutely fresh and fluffy and the croissants are super super delicious fluffy and crispy!! I like to eat here once in a while when I’m craving a good breakfast before work , he’s always busy and everybody seems to know him and I don’t think I have seen anyone not buy a dozen donuts here !! 5 stars highly recommend !!“

“Best Donuts in Downey. The staff are amazing. We've been going here over 10 years. Their croissants are soft and buttery. You cannot go wrong with their Apple Frittler. The traditional donuts are always on point. And their specialty donuts like the oreo cookie and fruity pebbles are yummy.“

“great donuts! great service!“

“His doughnuts are the 'Best!" Get their early B4 they are ALL GONE!!! My favorite is Jonathan's Grandma's apple fritter! 'BEST DONUTS EVER!" DELICIOUSLY FRESH,TASTY TIME!¡ 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩“

“Usually I don't like writing reviews but I bought glazed donuts for all my coworkers and the donuts were so fluffy, fresh from the oven and delicious. I'm so happy they really loved it. Specially the owner they are so nice and friendly. I will order again, I highly recommend this restaurant and Thank you សូមអរគុណ“

“Absolutely wonderful experience. The food here is magnificent. The team that works here is spectacular. They’re good kind God loving people come and get your bagel here. Come and get your bagel heel. Do you want a bagel? Get a bagel come to Mr. good and get a bagel it’s the best bagel you’ve ever had Miss. It’s so good.“

“This donut shop has good reviews, so I went to check it out. They have a large selection of donuts, pastries, muffins, breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, fresh juices, and lotto tickets. The donuts were tasty as was the breakfast sandwich I ordered. This is definitely worth going to if you're in the area.“

“Feels and tastes like love. From the extremely friendly and welcoming person taking the order, to the cook in the back. I got a coffee, donut and a #7 (chicken sandwich) and idk what kinda delicious seasoning they use but it's perfect. I'll be coming backfor sure“

“A coworker told me about this place for good priced breakfast sandwiches, and this is genuinely my new favorite donut/sandwich place. The man who works there is so kind and helpful. He knows exactly which donut I point at and will let me know the name for next time.

The tuna fish sandwich is so good! I’m extremely picky (it’s hard finding a good tuna fish) and this sandwich is everything. The smack it on a homemade croissant and I always add spouts, which he immediately said yes to when I asked.

I can’t not talk about their donuts however. They’re delicious!!!! Their bear claw is filled with cinnamon and apple filling, and when I say their glazed is extremely similar to Kristy Kremes, I mean, it’s spot-on but better. They’re lighter and fluffier.

I seriously love this place, the kindness of the workers/owner, and the food for the price is unbeatable. My new favorite place to stop for a quick lunch!!“

“Donuts are so fresh and delish. Been going there since they opened. Lunch is also good and freash.“

“Every day,their donuts are fresh😋😋😋👍👍👍“

“Very fresh and great looking donuts!“

“I love this place pillowy doughnuts fresh soft best doughnuts I’ve been coming here since I was a little kid girl with my with my grandma now at 48yrs old I drive to El Monte to have my coffee n doughnuts n I bring my friends here polite. Family owned I will always support n bring my money here“

“Great place to get a chicken sandwich, my favorite number 14, delicious 1st class chicken breast, 1st class bread, and all ingredients. Add avocado and is way better and affordable than any Subway or Jersey Mike's. Also great bagels. Can't speak for donuts cuz don't eat donuts.“

“Excellent service, sweet ladies, great prices & a humble atmosphere�“

“Wow... The doughnuts are AMAZING.... the donuts dough is so soft.. I was reluctant to get into the place due to the outside appearance, but the donuts and cakes they make are delicious, and like I said the dough is so tender and soft... It's my new favorite place to get donuts ?. Definitely will come back and I 100% recommend this donut shop. Go in and try it you won't be disappointed. They also have sandwiches and the drinks are super hot... I got a vanilla cappuccino and the drink was super hot ...“

“Everything about this place is amazing—I’ve tried boba drinks, sandwhiches, donuts, coffees, and juices (probably more stuff too i just dont remember), and all were SOOO tasty 😋 I would come here quite often after school to pick up a thai tea boba and a warmed up croissaint: OMG the croissaint is buttery and has a very nice cheese-like pull to it when you bite into it 🤤🤤 And the donuts are amazing as well 😄 they’re soft and are never too sweet 😌 Also they do cash and apple pay but I think they charge you $1.00 or less (i dont remember 😅) to use apple pay.“

“daddys donuts are absolutely amazing always fresh i highly recommend if I could give a 1 million star i definitely would. best donuts in Florida!“

“Fantastic donuts did such an amazing job with our daughter‘s bday order!! Every single donut was decorated with such incredible detail and so much love, everyone at the party was blown away- especially our little birthday girl! And did I mention yet how delicious they were!? WOW!! Thanks so much, from our family to yours!!“

“Prices have gone up from when I 1st started going with my GF. I remember my GF and I would go specifically for her bobas but they are now 6$ I remember literally a year ago they were 4.75$ the doughnuts are just ok. You can tell when they are yesterdays or even the day before. They crumble apart. Besides that we did find that going to winchells Doughnuts was much less expensive and better.“

“Super fun place! It’s fun for everyone. Delicious donuts!“

“Que Delicia! Todo Fresco! Y Vegano <3“

“I love going here all the time before or after school. The items aren't so expensive and are a good price. The sandwiches and boba there are so good I get some all the time I'm there. It a good place to grab something and go, or to even just sit down and eat. My friends and I go here to get something and to study or talk. The workers are nice there, and are quick when getting your order done. I recommend to try at least one of their sandwiches, it always good.“

“By far the best glazed donut and cinnamon roll donut I have ever had! And I've had my share of donuts, but hands down the glazed donut was delicious! It was like cake! The texture how soft and spongy the dogh was, no oil flavor at all and it wasn't to sweet it was flavored perfectly!!! If yall haven't been here to try these donuts out, you have been missing out !! I'm going back today to buy some more for the fam!!“

“Got the jelly cherry glazed and glazed dots they were fresh and delicious. The cherry jelly glazed had the perfect amount of filling, glazed dough was delectably scrumptious, finally my family and I can enjoy quality made donuts at a modest price closer to home. Keep up the great quality service you provide this community SWEET TIME DONUTS.....“

“I highly recommend it here. The donuts are great. They have thrifty ice cream. Their sandwiches are delicious. Speedy service even when they are booking with business. I highly recommend their juices. Carrot juice or the orange juice are my favorite fresh made.“

“It's 3AM and you want some donuts, a sandwich, or whatever kind of comfort.... this place has got you.

On our way home from some degeneracy and I got a jalapeno ham cheese croissant and some donuts. It was hot and fresh out the kitchen and straight into my mouth I could barely contain myself on the drive home.

Now it's nothing special and but given the context this was the best thing to end that night (morning?) with.
