50 Best Donuts near Lemon Grove

“The only fresh donut in town! I had to go to sixteen donut shops in SD before I could find a fresh glazed donut. Miss Donuts delivered! Spongy, flavorful, and sweet, these donuts melt in your mouth. They are not like the dry, hard ones found everywhere else. I have done the research for you, the superior donuts are Miss Donuts donuts. Don't bother to go anywhere else, hands down, these are the best.“

There are tables inside to enjoy your donut with a coffee, if you’d like.

“Best donuts in San Diego, very nice people.“

“Stopped in for an iced coffee and donut on a weekday, I'm not even a fan of donuts but this one was delicious! I was a bit overwhelmed with the flavors when I walked in so I just went with a cinnamon donut but will have to be back to try more. Perfect place to stop for a quick coffee too with ample parking, will be back often for that coffee yummmm.“

“Nice family run doughnut shop. I had the old-fashioned maple bar. I was larger than most and tasted good. The bar cost me $1.75, which included a couple of doughnut holes.

The shop, although small, offers a good variety of doughnuts. They also affer drip coffee and croissant breakfast sandwiches. The shop offers three tables inside and no outside seating.

The service was super friendly.“

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

“Friendly place and the donuts are great!“

“Great product and incredible customer service.“

“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“

“I stopped in to pick up my first “too good to go bag” and I am so glad I was introduced to donuts plus. The pastries and donuts were some of the best I have had in such a long time. They were so fresh and had the perfect taste. The women in the store was able to give me some personal recommendations and she was the sweetest lady ever! I cannot wait to come back“

“As someone who has often worked in or around small airports, I learned, early on, that pilots always make sure to have good food nearby, and Christy's is no exception. And, as a dough-"nut," I believe that Christy's serves up what may well be the finest donuts in Southern California, (...and I've tasted most of the overpriced/novelty hipster ones. And, If you count a certain Portland chain, they may be the best on the west coast.) Christy's texture is significantly different from most every other doughnut I've had -- the cake varieties anyway -- and her glazes are also superbly applied with loving care; take a close look. While I'm no baker, my guess is that Christy's infuses each donut with extra butter, or something that makes it a significantly moist denser crumb. Amazing... And, each time I've been here, the donuts could have been used in a photo shoot. What the proprietors perhaps lack in a pretense of fawning, they make up tenfold in a quality product. The lady *(I presume Christy?), who's most often here when I've been here said they've been in the space for over 35 years. So - give her a break. She surely gives you one on prices - as they are in the In-n-Out affordable range, as compared to other bakeries, even with the ongoing inflation. The coffee's good too.“

“Glazed donuts are the best! Pair them warm with vanilla ice cream and hot fudge topping! Called this a Wagonwheel in my high school days in Connecticut!

Dietary restrictions: Donuts are a treat not really recommended for diabetics“

“Small store, freshly baked yummiest. Coffee good too. Plenty of parking to rush in and grab a few donuts and coffee. and be on your way unless you want to pause and sit inside the store. Fair prices. You will always be greeted by a cheerful smile.“

“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!“

“Best donuts around!!! Soft, and moist. The frozen drinks are super tasty and come with a donut on top of it. When u buy a dozen donuts they literally give every donut. Plus it's cheap and good. Only place I go for iced coffee and donut. Donuts are made fresh in the back. I wish more people knew about this place.“

“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“

“VISIT WHILE YOU CHARGE YOUR TESLA ON A SUPERCHARGER IN A VERY SAFE AREA! Service with a smile, clean, delicious selection of donuts, 24/7 coffee!

Parking: Parked to charge around corner at TESLA SUPERCHARGERS 250KWH. Easy to walk through to Donut Shop in plaza directly behind!“

“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!!!“

“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“

“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.“

“I work overnights, at a clinic. There's something comforting about a 24-hour donut shop down the street. And this one has good donuts round the clock, good lunch food, and a friendly attendant behind the counter. I'm so glad Yum Yum is there for us.“

“Best doughnuts and coffee!! All my kids loved them. The coffee tasted great and was fresh and hot. The service was excellent and the lady behind the counter was extremely nice and attentive. This place will be our family’s new doughnut spot. I definitely recommend everyone to try!“

“Little hidden spot. Went in but they didn’t have a lot of options. The one that I ended up getting were soo good!! Would give it another star if they had more options. The donuts are nice and fluffy. Also the lady was super nice and gave me a extra donut. I just notice that I went close to closing so maybe that’s why they didn’t have many options.“

“Excellent Donuts. First time visiting today, and the Donuts tasted fresh, the bars were perfectly soft on the inside, slightly crispy on the out, and the chocolate and maple icing was delicious - not overly sweet but bursting with flavor. Old fashioned was amazing as well.There has not been a lot of Donut places which deliver so well: and I've tried plenty from Chula Vista all up to Rancho Bernardo - little hole in the walls to gourmet "fancy" places. Through it all I've been locked to my ol' regular place for a while. Happy to find another place I can become a new regular at.“

“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!“

“I have been coming here since about 1987 when my dad used fo take us before he dropped us at school and went to work. If we got up good at 5am and got dressed and ready on time, he would bring us here or to Aunt Emma's restaurant further down the road. I used to always get the same thing, it's like a tortilla with fruit and a sugar type frosting on it. I also love the maple bars. So good.

One thing that i always wonder is why they leave the doors propped open all night long. Weird.

Parking: Tons of it“

“Came here once early in the morning to grab donuts for a mini gathering on my wedding day. (May 3,24... late post) I finally came across this and wanted to leave a review. First, the service was great, they are very nice and patient. The worst thing you can do is walk into a place such as a donut shop and not have good service. When we got home, we all went to town on the donuts, I'm sure I had 3. They were so good! I just felt this review was well deserved.

You also can't miss the pink and white building!“

“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!!“

“I recently visited Bom Bom Bake House/Bonita Donuts and was thoroughly impressed with the delightful experience! The moment I stepped in, I was greeted by the warm aroma of freshly baked goods and a friendly staff.

The donuts were the real stars of the show - soft, fluffy, and packed with flavor. I tried the [insert flavors you tried], and each one was a perfect balance of sweetness and texture. The [insert specific donut name] was a standout for me, with its creative flavor combination and beautiful presentation.

The bakery itself is cozy and inviting, with a charming atmosphere that makes you want to linger over your treats. The service was top-notch, with friendly and knowledgeable staff happy to answer questions and offer recommendations.

Overall, I highly recommend Bom Bom Bake House/Bonita Donuts for anyone with a sweet tooth. Whether you're a donut aficionado or just looking for a tasty treat, this bakery is a must-visit destination!"“

“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.“

“Best doughnuts! ? I had a cake doughnut and my family members had maple glaze and traditional glazed as well as the jelly filled ones. All were EXCELLENT! Not greasy, not dry, full of flavor and fluffy. Even the cake doughnuts were fluffy and super soft. Soooo good! We are very picky with doughnuts but this place exceeded our expectations. The service was excellent too. We were greeted by the two people working there with a warm smile and hello (I’m assuming they were the owners). Very nice people. I will be coming back every time I’m in the area and wanting a doughnut for sure. It’s definitely a must try!“

“There is no sign on the building. We passed it twice trying to find it.

The donuts were fantastic and tasted fresh and were still warm.
Highly recommend the apple fritters from here. Hands down the best I've ever had.

The store looked clean.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 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“

“Take a squirrel to breakfast in the Spanish Village Art Center with a muffin at Daniel's Coffee.“

“The food was great, I got a turkey avocado bagel sandwich and a cherry jelly filled donut and was very satisfied. Service was quick and to the point. I went late at night so I think they wanted to fulfill the order fast, which didn't bother me since I wanted to be out fast anyways.

Wheelchair accessibility: This location is decently wheelchair accessible, with enough room to maneuver if it isn't too busy.“

“Really good milk tea!! The mocha mochi donut, the oreo Mochi donut, and the ube Mochi donuts were the best! I wish I could've tried the Black Sesame flavor but they were all out.

Parking: We went on a Sunday, but it's always hard to find parking in Hillcrest. We got lucky and found street parking a couple blocks away.“

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

“I haven't been in a doughnut shop for years. However I know a good fresh doughnut! So today 10-1-2024, My husband and I happen to drive by and stop in. I can ASSURE you these doughnuts are FIRE!!!! I can't begin to tell you how fresh, and soft they were. The customer service behind the counter and at register was IMPECCABLE and just absolutely joyous?. We live in El cajon and I would hands down drive to this location just for the customer service and the freshness of the doughnuts. I ate the Cherry filled with white iceing and it taste like fresh Cherry pie. The only thing I am afraid of, is eating the whole box.. and thats no joke. TY Yum-Yum for keeping good doughnuts ALIVE and keeping it old school on the customer service ?, I did not get the two gentlemen's names but you to are breaking stuff up in there?? . I had to edit because I just ate my chocolate frosted Crueler and I can't even describe how AMAZING it was. I'll be back for sure? “

“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.“
