50 Best Donuts near Lemon Grove

“The snacks are fantastic and specialized for those with allergies“

“Our favorite location with friendly staff, very clean and always has most if not everything in stock regardless of the time you good. We obviously go for donuts and recently tried their bagel sandwiches which we were really good and a great price. Portion was perfect and the bagel it self is good. I rather go to this Yum Yum vs. Other donut shops.“

“Came here in the evening and grabbed some apple fritters. Solid size that was larger than an average hand for $3. It still tasted fresh. I can see what other reviews meant by it might be from the morning, and that's totally a'ok in my book.“

“Always an amazing experience. I love that they offer vegan options that are delicious and unique. It is one of my favorites for donuts! The coffee is quite good too.“

“Great product and incredible customer service.“

“We visited KT Donuts today. Glazed, sprinkled, jelly and cream filled, chocolate and powdered sugar coated. All the standard donuts are well represented here. One of my all time favorites is the Apple Fritters.
CASH ONLY HERE!
Cheers“

“This is a great small donut coffee, Vietnamese coffee, and donut shop. We tried great Vietnamese coffee today, and a hot tea with Stash® brand teas. So many classic donut styles, and we settled on a bunch of delicious glazed donut holes so that we didn't have to say we ate a whole donut!
Great friendly service. Note that the Donuts Plus is cash only and offers an ATM machine. For those who do not want a brewed coffee or Vietnamese coffee, enjoy a chilled CocaCola® or Pepsi® chilled product from the refrigerator case.
Great friendly service.
Accessible entry via a wide ramp. Accessible counter to order and pick up food. Accessible tables indoors to enjoy your choices.
Van accessible parking in the strip center with several venues“

“Called ahead on a busy Thursday morning for a mixed dozen box of donuts, $19, and was ready when I picked it up - great service and very efficient, the nice woman at the counter even gave some extra donuts, she must’ve been able to tell we had a busy day at work ahead! Plenty of parking and other breakfast and coffee options as well“

“Truly the best donuts and baked goods in San Diego. Located in an unassuming strip mall near a laundromat, possibly owned by the same owners.

I find that most donut shops in the city use a similar recipe for their dough, but something about Golden Donut’s recipe for its dough is different - a little bit sour with a peppery taste.

The thing that originally led me to GD was the fact that, oddly, they served iced Vietnamese coffee which I had been looking for in San Diego. However, they don’t have many other beverage choices apart from Thai iced teas.

There are some interesting flavors that have popped up, like a banana turnover and matcha donuts. Would love to see more of these unique items on the menu.

Vegetarian options: Almost everything is vegetarian but the maple bacon donuts

Parking: Parking can be challenging as it shares the parking lot with multiple businesses. Constant traffic in and out. Parking on the street but might have to walk.

Wheelchair accessibility: As far as I can tell, not step to enter the shop and is flat inside“

“This staff is the best. They are so friendly. The best doughnuts I have had in awhile. If you are in this area be sure and get some these exquisite masterpieces. #bbUnicorn“

“Best donuts for miles and miles around. Happy I made the drive.“

“Best Apple Fritter in town!! I am an apple fritter connoisseur and I have to say this is the best one i’ve ever had!! It was even later in the day around 4pm and it was still fresh and delicious! I also tried their Maple bar, Coconut donut, and Maple Bacon. Their Coconut was okay, a little dry i’d say. Otherwise great donuts!!“

“Honey Donuts is one of my favorite spots in San Diego. They may not serve the flashy, Instagram-worthy donuts you see at big-brand shops, but the quality here is consistently outstanding. Every donut is fresh, perfectly fluffy on the inside, and made with just the right touch and ingredients and you can’t go wrong.

I’ve even seen them making fresh batches as late as 10 p.m., which speaks volumes about their dedication. The woman at the front is incredibly kind, warm, and hardworking; always greeting you with a smile. You can tell this is a family-run shop built on pride and heart.

Honey Donuts isn’t just a donut shop, it’s a local gem that makes you feel welcome and valued every time you walk in.“

“This was my first time stopping at Tasty Donuts. I had been craving a donut for weeks. I got an apple fritter and a glazed blueberry old fashioned. Like I said, I had been craving a donut - ONE. And I left with two. And I swiftly ate half of each, in my car, as I drove home.

To say they were delicious is a tremendous understatement. The apple fritter was moist, chewy, and the perfect amount of sweetness. So yummy! The blueberry old fashioned was moist and dense all at the same time, glazed just right - not too much, and not too sparse - and it was delicately sweetened, which was ideal.

One of the things I loved about both treats is the just right amount of sweetness. It wasn't overly sweet where one experiences cavities on the first bot, but it also was not bland. I nursed the remains for two days after. I kept them well wrapped to retain as much freshness as I could. And the total for both was only $3 and change! I was pleasantly surprised.

I will return. I don't eat donuts very often, but when the craving hits again, I will most assuredly revisit Tasty Donuts. I was quite pleased. Enjoy your visit... and heck, splurge on two. You're welcome. ♡“

“Awesome place. My daughter and I went and we got Thai tea, plain and glazed donuts. They were very friendly and accommodating. My daughter accidentally dropped her atm card and when we got home she realized it, we called and they had it safe and sound. Thank you Crispy's donuts. They also gave us some sample donut holes.“

“I’ve lived in the area for years and finally tried this place—what a little treasure in our community! I needed to pick up 5 dozen donuts for my team at work, and since I was heading in early, I placed the order a couple of days ahead. They took down all the details, including a small special request, with no problem. When I arrived at 5am for pickup, everything was ready and absolutely perfect! From the friendly service to the delicious donuts, the whole experience was fantastic. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Just a hole in the wall donut shop offering traditional tasty donuts. I have to say with everyone describing the dough as fluffy.... they are spot on. There's something about it that's so soft and almost has the melt in your mouth feeling.
We ordered an old fashioned glazed and chocolate, as well as a chocolate twist. The gentleman that helped us was so nice and helpful. He gave us 2 donut holes for each of pur orders. It may not seem like much but this is a nice gesture for any guest.

My husband ordered the iced mocha coffee, he said it was ok. I ordered a hot coffee with cream. I have to say that the coffee was bold and good. I didn't expect that.

Definitely will be back for the good donuts and good prices!

Price $16 & some change for
Small coffee
Large iced coffee
5 donuts“

“My kids came here asking to change their dollar for quarters. My kids raved about how sweet and kind the people running the place were. In a world of negativity, such kindness should not go unnoticed. Thank you so much! Also the donuts they ended up getting afterwards were delicious. A+++ all around!!!“

“yes, yes my good sir 🧐. You literaly deserve these 5 golden stars like yall are underrated. IM LITERALY A FOOD CRIDICT. (I eat 2109 calories a day) I literally LOVE you, your donuts are cheap and I bought a dozen for my interview with a VERY important person. The leader of office admissions to a top 10 junior boarding schools. Literally tysm bro I want to glaze you like you did on my donuts.🤑🤫🥰“

“A tiny little donut shop on Aero drive.
I have wanted to stop after my VA appointment and get my standard for judging donut shops, an apple fritter and finally today I did.
WELL WORTH THE WAIT
The shop is clean and the selection.looks really good.
Got my go to standard and was not disappointed. The woman behind the counter was very nice too!
I guarantee, this will be a regular stop for me from now on!“

“I love this place the donuts are amazing excellent service and has everything very clean. I’m proud and impressed because two kids work there and they do a very good job and they treated me super good and asked about my day. I would totally recommend these donuts if your around Bonita.“

“The brown sugar boba tea was so good. The boba in it had the right consistency. The donuts were fresh and good as well. The ube donut had a very subtle flavor. This place is best for takeout as there is not much seating. Parking was easy to find.“

“Everything was fresh and delicious. When we got there, there were a couple of people in front of us. We had to wait for 3 bagle sandwiches, and by the time we left, there was a line of at least 10 customers. Mostly return customers. We'll be back!“

“I have been a costumer for over 35 years. Always fresh ans Always nice working people. I believe recently a new generation of the family has taken over, I do notice a even much more positive change overall. They are so so kind, Always smiling and kind. You guys are doing amazing. Thank you !“

“Best donuts in San Diego! Glazed donuts are amazing. Very cheap for the quality donuts they have. It's a great mom and pops shop. They have been on business for over 30 years. It's a little gem in National City. Highly recommended. Go early because they only bake once a day. When the donuts are gone, they close shop for the day.“

“The lady working here is so friendly and kind. She found a candle for me to stick into a donut to celebrate my birthday 🎂 and even took our photo. She was happy to talk to us about the shop and its history. I love places like this and will stop by whenever I'm in the neighborhood. The apple and spice donut is incredible. Not overly sweet and filled with apples like a pie. I ended up buying 2 more after trying one. Absolute perfection. Thank you so much 🙏🏽“

“Best donut I have ever put in my mouth. Hands down! Tried the ube blue yam donut it was so soft and delicious!! Hot fresh coffee was great! Breakfast sandwich on the everything bagel was great! And the half dozen donuts for the road will be finished momentarily. Haha. Highly recommend!! 10/10 Across the board!!“

“I have been looking for the best classic donut shop near me and I have definitely found it! They accept credit card, you have to be okay with $0.75 fee charge. Always got parking right in front. They have a handful of tables in the corner if you wanted to eat right there.

This shop serves Vietnamese Iced Coffee for $5.50 and paired with a chocolate donut and I’m a happy camper for the morning! I’ve watched them make the espresso too (some donut shops have those ‘machines’ that make coffee, and it’s just not the same!)

I’ve also gotten their croissant ham and cheese sandwich and it’s really good and pretty big - soft and fluffy.

Definitely a spot to stop for 8 bucks of deliciousness!“

“Went in at 10:30pm, 30 mins before closing and yet was provided with great customer service. The man at the counter was patiently waiting for us to decide since we were so undecided of what we wanted to try. He even suggested some doughnuts for us. The donuts themselves were delicious and soft. Overall, great experience.“

“I have loved this donut shop since I was a little kid. My dad used to always bring dozens of donuts home before I even woke up. Now that I am old enough to get my own donuts I still go here because the donuts taste the same and havent changed through the years. Super delicious! Do not get 711 donuts when this place is right next door!“

“By far the best donuts you will ever eat. Fresh, cooked perfectly and run by a local family. I suggest trying the maple bacon if you love bacon, sweet and salty.

Kid-friendliness: Kids will love the different types of donuts.“

Great people , great times 💯
Yum yum donuts are an amazing treat to start your day with a sweet treat or a great breakfast sandwich, orange juice, chocolate milk, coffee etc!
They have a wide variety for everyone to enjoy! Thank you all @yumyumdonuts for allowing the car show! So many people get to enjoy the cars and the coffee & donuts!“

“Rita works the night shift and she’s absolutely amazing! I caught her right at the end of her shift and she was still so friendly, professional and graceful. She is honestly the best employee I’ve encountered at any of the locations. This specific location is always very clean! The food is always fresh and everything tastes great.“

“Roses donuts? Solid. Fluffy, not too greasy, and just the right amount of sweetness. The classics like glazed and chocolate frosted are spot-on, but the real gems are the seasonal specials—think lemon blueberry in spring or apple cider in fall. They also do a killer maple bacon donut that somehow works every time.

Aside from donuts, they’ve got a few dessert surprises up their sleeve—cream-filled eclairs, soft-baked cookies, and a rotating lineup of mini cakes that go way harder than they need to. Pair anything with their locally roasted coffee or a rich hot chocolate, and you’re golden.“

“I had the Mexican Mocha Espresso as a Frappuccino....oh my gosh it was so tasty. San Diego winter warm enough for a cold coffee. I'm feeling so spoiled and lucky. ❤🤍💙“

“Christy's donuts in El Cajon has the best donuts. They don't have a shiny new store like that other place in Santee, but they have better tasting donuts the owner and his family run the shop and they are so very nice.

Instead of cakes, we've started treating ourselves to Christy's donuts.

😋 Delicious!“

“I like this little doughnut shop..............doughnut here are pretty good...............they have a dining area if you want to eat there.............I usually do............the couple who run it are super nice............only drawback for some is that they are a cash only business..............but their prices are a bit lower than other places in the area............I usually stop by at least twice a week“

“Just purchased 2 dozen of the TWIX speciality doughnuts. While the combination of Krispy Kreme and TWIX is a dream come true, I'm curious as to why these doughnuts are not nearly as soft as the typical chocolate glazed? Just a bit disappointing.“

“It's a small shop with very tasty mochi [rice] flour doughnuts and teas to add boba or jelly to for washing down the doughnuts! When I visited I wanted to try the grass jelly, but it had run out. There was a bit of confusion for a while about that and despite being the only one there until a young lady came by, I waited quite a bit for my order which I had to change a bit. I was surprised I got my doughnut and drink after that young lady because it didn't seem like she ordered online. Unfortunately that's why I don't go here as often as I can, but the food is delicious!“

“We got a variety of Donuts and some drinks for a pretty good price. Everything was delicious, so we went back in to get some taiyaki. For sure coming back here another time!

I recommend the mango or ube mochi donuts specifically.“

“This was my first time having rolled ice cream. It was really flavorful. I got the strawberry with cheesecake bites.“

“Delicious, wonderful, and great customer serve. I’ve never been unhappy. That’s my me-time place to be.“

“I came here a few months ago to get donuts because my usual place was all out. I saw that they made breakfast sandwiches and thought I'd give that a try too. Turns out those sandwiches are amazing. Make sure Lin is the one behind the counter though. I've been back several times for the sandwich and there's another lady that works sometimes who makes them completely different and not as well.Lin takes what I assume is a croissant they make there, toasts it up and makes you two fresh eggs to put on top of it. You can get cheese, ham, bacon etc as well. I usually opt for the number four which is ham, bacon and cheese. It's amazing. Highly recommend this place. The donuts, donut holes and other creations are amazing as well. Stop by soon!“
