36 Best Donuts near Foothill Ranch

“Literally reviewing as I’m still eating my donut (apple fritter, really) because it’s that good. I’m usually quite picky with donuts so I knew when I took my first bite I’d have to share a review. I also sampled the apple bear claw which was probably equally good but I’m—personally, anyway—in favor of the fritter. The woman that helped us was very nice and super generous. I was waffling over adding on a blueberry cake donut and boy was she right about trying it! Ok, I’m finished with the review, but not the fritter. It was huge and will still be enjoyed a second time later tonight.“

“Great time.......especially for 5:00 am. I couldn't miss your Grand Opening! Amazing Pumpkin Swirl Coffee & Lattes too! Pumpkin Muffins, Donuts & Carmel Apple Croissant Donuts were a big hit at home!! See you soon!“

“Just visit it friendly donuts. I ordered the crème brûlée donuts. It was fantastic and the chai tea I recommended to anyone who loves good donuts.“

“Great customer service! Great location! Yummy donuts!“

“This is the best Donut Star around. Family owned and run, they have the best mocha and the most generous staff! (I always find extra donuts in my order.

It's the only establishment to date that doesn't automatically ask for a tip and I have to remind them to include in my payment.“

“Absolutky hands down without a doubt the VERY BEST donut shop in Orange County.. possibly the world! Always fresh, prices are fair, and the service is top notch! This place is a Tustin icon i've been getting myself and my family donuts here for over 30 yrs and ive never had an experience anything short of perfect! A+++

Oh and if your in a hurry or dont want to get out of your warm car on a cold morning they have a drive through window.“

“Royal Donuts in Mission Viejo is one of those classic local donut shops that reminds you why small neighborhood spots still beat the big chains. From the moment you walk in, the smell of fresh donuts hits you and you can tell right away that things are being made properly, not just shipped in frozen and reheated like some of the larger franchise places.

The selection is excellent. You have all the classics you expect like glazed, chocolate frosted, maple bars, old fashioned, and jelly filled, but everything tastes noticeably fresher than the average donut shop. The glazed donuts have that perfect light texture where the outside has just enough sweetness without being overwhelming, and the inside stays soft and fluffy. The maple bars are especially good and are generously sized. One donut can honestly hold you over for quite a while.

Another thing I noticed is the consistency. A lot of donut shops are good early in the morning but fall off later in the day. Royal Donuts seems to keep a solid rotation going so you are not getting something that has been sitting around for hours. The donuts still taste fresh even later in the morning.

The staff has always been friendly and quick, even when there is a small line. They move people through efficiently without making you feel rushed. The shop itself is clean, simple, and exactly what you want from a neighborhood donut place. Nothing fancy, just good donuts done right.

Prices are also very reasonable compared to a lot of places now charging premium prices for basic donuts. Here you still feel like you are getting great value for what you pay.

If you live anywhere around Mission Viejo, this is definitely one of those local spots worth supporting. Great donuts, friendly service, and consistently fresh quality. Exactly what a neighborhood donut shop should be.“

“Great donuts and pastries. Sometimes they run out of certain selections later in the day. And can be fairly warm inside, especially during the summers. They have done special requests for birthday donuts, they never let down and I was very impressed. Nice family owned place. Thank you oum and ming.“

“This is the BEST donut store around!
The people here are very friendly & welcoming. All the donuts they make are SO DELICIOUS.
We have been to many donut places in SoCal but, this one is our favorite.
The chocolate covered old fashioned, the jelly, the Boston cream, the glazed, are delightful any time of day!“

“Omg! Their breakfast burrito is amazing. Came to kaiser for a doc app and was looking for donuts. Well, I now found my new breakfast burrito place. First bite melted in my mouth. The eggs are fluffy and have a great flavor. The tortilla is soft. Im not one for cheese on my food. But the cheese they use is also soft and melts right into the burrito. The salsa is a must to add onto before a bit. My new spot when I’m in the area 😍“

“Very delicious donuts!
We were craving donuts and ended up stopping here right before closing. I used to come here as a kid and the donuts have always been delicious!
The owner was soooo kind and gave us a few extra donuts. We ate a lot of them in the car because they were so tasty. Definitely recommend! We will come back the next time we are in the US! Thank you!“

“Great donuts and kind employees. When I go here, it's usually at 5am right when they open and I pick up a dozen donuts, some muffins, and often a ham and cheese croissant. The donuts are always fresh and still coming out, and the croissants are fresh and hot. Their old fashion glaze, old fashion maple, and powdered cake donuts are my favorites 👍. Also really like the fat free bran muffin😄!“

“Stopped in to this shop and everything was delicious! Great variety of donuts, burritos were delicious! Staff was kind and helpful. 5 Stars definitely recommend this place.“

“The Lox bagel sandwich is so good 😋💕 and the blueberry donuts are amazing! Also service is always 102038829191% amazing.“

“Please come here and try the Salvadoran food. Service was great and the donuts were good but the real reason to come here is the other food items available.
We tried the jalapeno and cheese and the mixed meat pupusa's and they were fantastic. We also had the fried plantains with beans and sour cream which was delicious. Had fries and a Salvadoran pork tamale as well.
Highly recommend this gem.“

“Workers (owners?) are so sweet and i’ve never had any issues with anything i’ve gotten here. Baked goods always taste good and the fresh orange juice is soooo good definitely a great local place especially after the bakery by the winery and deli closed a while back“

“So sad today was their last day, the owners retired and I'm not sure if there will be new management or not, but ever since moving into a home nearby in 2023, my daughter and I have have become a big fan!

Their donuts have the best soft texture, their vietnamese coffee is Lee's sandwiches concentrate which is my favorite as well, and their brewed drip hot coffee is always fresh. The owners are very nice and always greet you when you walk in. I've visited them at least once a week every other week. Wishing them the best in their retirement!(:“

“So this doughnut shop is inside the grocery / general store in the plaza. They offer so many unique doughnuts like various candy bar and cereal flavors, as well as some more traditional flavors. The doughnuts were delicious and a great find. It's definitely worth a trip to try some unique and tasty doughnuts.“

“Good food! the chef there had a neat lava fist, and the donut i got tasted somewhat like burnt human flesh and a bit of a flame flame fruit taste to it. my friend luffy started crying though. oh well. Will Recommend! (ok jokes aside i havent been here but the donuts do actually look good.)“

“I went in this morning and ordered the signature burrito with no ham, cashier was friendly. It was ready quickly and tasted fresh and delicious with a side of green salsa I will return here soon, for another breakfast burrito. They have a very wide selection of donuts and drinks to choose from.“

“The Viejo bagel is one of my favorites! Good donuts! The blended mocha is excellent!“

“Chinese food not bad. Orange chicken was ok, fried rice good, and chow mein not good. I think at certain times of the day the food is good, and sometimes meh. Over all give it a try. Good place for chips, gum, and energy drinks, and doughnuts..“

“I went there to get a donut for my son's bday. The lady over there gave me hole donuts free. I didn't expect that but just doing little thing makes you feel more welcoming and comfortable. I love their donuts and the warm atmosphere that they have. Highly recommended“

“Donuts are good. The staff is super friendly and nice. They have tamales and champurrado which I have tried and must say is pretty good. Have been here several times and will keep coming as long as the service stays the same. Happy customer.“

“Absolutely love Parlor Doughnuts! Everything tastes incredibly fresh, like it’s truly made daily. The icing is perfect—not overly sweet, just the right balance. You can tell a lot of care goes into every bite. On top of that, the people there are always so friendly and welcoming. Definitely a go-to spot for amazing doughnuts! Oh be sure to download their app!“

“This is DEFINITELY the hidden South Orange County gem that the true locals around here know all about! Very friendly service. Donuts are great but their sandwiches are EXCELLENT. My tip: Always go with their longest length sandwich. I go with either pastrami, egg, or veggie sandwich -depending on the mood and always with everything on it. You get to choose a donut -I always go with plain, maple bar, chocolate cake, or chocolate frosted donut. Lastly you get a drink -I recommend the unsweetened ice tea. Why? Bc the dessert was the donut... No need to sugar your way up with anything moreGo here: Trust me you won't be disappointed“

“It’s my daughter’s birthday today. Thank you for the birthday treat - free dozen of donuts. She is super excited! She loves Krispy Kreme!“

“A great place with amazing food that never disappoints! Their service is outstanding, they do whatever it takes to make sure me and my guests get the best breakfast burritos in town. It is the unofficial Sunday burrito provider for our Angels entertainment team!“

“CUP offers a great patio seating area and a pleasant atmosphere. It’s quite busy on a Saturday morning, but the environment is still enjoyable. There’s ample space for kids and dogs to run around. The food selection is limited, but the items they offer are high-quality. They also have gluten-free and dairy-free options. The ambiance is casual and comfortable, making it a great spot for a relaxed meal. I would like to see the menu expanded to include more specialty drinks and food items.“

“The best breakfast burrito and sandwich of my life. Linda’s knows how to be generous with their portions and make a hearty breakfast. I love this place, ever since I discovered it I’ve been telling all my friends and family. Their doughnuts are always so fresh and taste better than anywhere else and they have cute designs and variety of flavors. Their orange juice is actually hand squeezed unlike other places that say it is but really isn’t. I couldn’t rave about this place more really.“

“I got a 3 leches cake this past Saturday (9/13) and let me tell you the flavor was amazing. I haven’t had a delicious and moist 3 leches cake in a long time. We would usually buy it from el Molino across the street but the past years their cakes have been super dry! It has nothing of 3 leches,
I was at the plaza where Efren’s bakery is and saw on a facebook group recommending this bakery so decided to try it out, didn’t disappoint! Our guests loved the cake as well! We devoured it!
Will definitely be coming back for more cake and try also their pan dulce!!“

“Love this Dunkin' location! Picked up coffee and munchkins for the office this morning and the $8 meal deal for me. Everything was delicious and my coffee was filled right to the top. The gentleman working the walk-up window was very kind and put a smile on my face!“

“This place is all about getting your dopamine going. Bright colors, lots of sugar. Service is quick, and the $6 meal deal includes a small breakfast taco, some hash brown nuggets, and a coffee. Portions are small and left me a bit unsatisfied. Wifi and outlets at every table is a bonus.“
