“This place has some good donuts they have a variety of donuts to select from. Finding parking is quite difficult so the only option is curbside parking. overall this donut restaurant was clean, they accept cash, card payment, and have friendly staff.“

“So went totally off of the Internet recommendations and Reddit and it did not disappoint! Probably my favourite donuts in long beach area so far! We got a couple of glazed, original, munchkins, apple fritters and twists. The lady behind the counter was super nice (Simone?) and gave us an extra to try! Every one of the donuts was so light and just the right amount of sweet! Also try the cronuts they were delicious!

Definitely will be back here when I can!“

“Greatest place on earth... I have no words for just how beautiful the owners were. True pride in thier business. Devastated they closed. This was my go to place for the best donuts & coffee on the planet. Happy Retirement. ❤️We Love You❤️“

“Amazing donuts and coffee. We drive further than our closest donut shop to come here.“

“Wish I had taken a picture of one of the tastiest apple fritters I have ever eaten in my life! Unfortunately it didn’t last long in the car.

This donut shop has everything one could ask for, delicious fresh donuts, kind staff, cleanliness and a classic donut shop feel. I love the nostalgia of a place like this and when coupled with great donuts and friendly service. We tried one of their fluffy glazed to start, Apple fritters, and sour cream old fashioned. Not one bad bite in the lot. Give this place a try. You won’t regret it.“

“Honestly, I can say this is one of the better donut shops for those that are going to work and need a quick bite to eat. They're donuts are fresh tasteful, especially the blueberry ones which I recommend and they do serve hot sandwiches, which is even better“

“What a beautiful experience at sweet retreat! They have the best donuts both vegan and non-vegan in the whole of Long Beach“

“Was looking for some fresh donuts came across Long Beach donuts best Decision I ever made. Can't go wrong they have everything you could possibly want and then some“

“I like to stop at this donut place when I'm in the area. They have a large variety of donuts and they all look delicious. Prices are reasonable. I usually get a mocha ice blended drink. The man who helped me last time fulfilled my request to have the drink extra blended (sometimes the ice is too chunky to drink through a straw when it's not blended enough). He was kind about helping me out. The lady is so kind too. I was having a rough time one day and she shared some kind words with me that kept me going. This place isn't located in the best part of town, but other than that I have nothing but good things to say about it - the food and the staff in particular.“

“Donuts were very moist and yummy, we picked up some in the afternoon and was surprised the donuts weren’t dry or dense. The coffee was also decent and the atmosphere is like an old school donut shop. Lower your expectations and focus on the food and service :) you’ll be happy you stopped by“

“Taro based donuts!
Each donut is made to order and dipped individually by hand.
Very interesting process of making them and fun names : original sin, hot single, PB cup, Hail Mary and lilikoi.
You can get an assortment box from 4 pieces to a dozen.
Friendly and patient service: it's not easy deciding which one to NOT get.
Also got iced Hawaiian vanilla latte and and iced Hawaiian chocolate drink.
One bathroom but no changing table for infants or toddlers.
Lot of merchandise including coffee beans and shirts, bags, mugs, hats etc...
Open air seating but our group took up the one long table (10 adults).
Many more stools available.
I really enjoyed the lilikoi or passion fruit donut.
You can get a pack of donut holes dipped in one flavor I suppose.“

“I can’t believe this place is still here. I moved from Long Beach over 16 years ago. Back in the late 80s to late 90s my family would go every Friday to the video 1 next door and then pick up some donuts and ham and cheese croissants. Glad it’s still around.“

“We've been coming here for over 10 years. I live near other donut shops but come here because the quality is better, pricing is better, the staff is friendly and helpful and the other food on their menu is really good. I've had their tacos before and they compared to restaurant street tacos. I drive out of my way to come here.“

“This doughnut shop is so cute and tidy and very friendly. It was my first time visiting here so I was very excited. I was able to buy the beautiful and fresh pastries that I wanted. And I found a new brand of energy drink that tastes amazing right here. I had a wonderful time and the gal working the counter was very nice.“

“Amazing donuts and coffee. We drive further than our closest donut shop to come here.“

“This place is awesome! I have been wanting a good maple donut and these hit the spot. They offer all kinds of fresh donuts and have tons of refreshment options. Even sandwiches and fresh juices! They also have tons of different scratches to choose from. The ladies that work in there are super nice!

The donut shop is old school. Love it. Definitely a gem in the area.“

“Super friendly staff. Recent change in ownership, and they are much more attentive and friendly than before. Their breakfast sandwiches and fresh OJ is amazing! ? The donuts are really good, too. I will be back!

Kid-friendliness: It's a donut shop, of course kids are welcome.“

“Great donuts and no wait time! Donuts are cheap and when I went they came out nice and fresh.

I’ve been to Granny’s a couple of times and have to recommend getting a sprinkle cake and original glazed cake donut.

Wish I had pictures to share but they are usually gone by the time you walk out the door!“

“Sorry picture was a dozen but kids couldn't wait! So I've been coming here since I was like 2 years old with my grandmother. Fast forward 27 years later, it is still the same owner behind the counter! The memory she has is remarkable! As there was a period of time that I didn't live in long beach and it was years before I came back here! That first time coming back, her tone was just that, like a family member who hasn't seen you in a long time! Remembered who I was, asked about my grandmother, mother and brother, and now that I have kids of my own, she has met my 2 daughters as well! It's crazy to think someone you only really know as the donut lady can see so life and growth in people! I'm sure I'm not the only child who grew up and had this experience. Donuts are A1! Love her coffee and cappuccino! My favorite is her ham and cheese crossaints! Support local business owners like her! She's one of a kind!“

“The croissant is crazy good. Donuts. Very nice. OMG... Croissant sandwichs for lunch ♥️
☺️ Sometimes I'll get for breakfast and lunch.
The older guy went on vacation or something. Still good, but I know his food. Note the same 🤣 but still good.“

“Lots to choose from and get your lotto ticket same time as your coffee or smoothie😊“

“Great family ran place with very kind friendly owners! Very respectful to us even though we were somewhat unwealthy they still happily to help us accomplish our requests which included helping me find a open electric outlet to plug in my cell phone and let it gain some charge.

10 stars even if it was out of 5 stars 🌟 🤩 ✨️ 💛

Definitely will go back and Definitely a place that sticks in your memory even years after my visit.“

“I stopped by this small neighborhood donut shop in Long Beach and it’s exactly the kind of place you want when you’re craving a quick, classic donut. The shop is simple and no-frills, but the smell of fresh donuts hits you as soon as you walk in.

I grabbed a couple of classics — a glazed donut and a chocolate-frosted one — and both were soft, fluffy, and just sweet enough without being overwhelming. The donuts tasted fresh and went perfectly with a hot cup of coffee.

Prices are very affordable and the service is quick and friendly, making it a great stop for breakfast or a quick snack before starting the day.

Overall, Penguin Donuts is a solid local donut spot. Nothing fancy, but fresh, tasty, and exactly what you want from a neighborhood donut shop.“

“I absolutely love Granny’s donuts! The breakfast sandwiches are incredible, and my vanilla iced coffee is always made with love—you can tell by the first sip. The customer service is outstanding, and I’m always greeted with a beautiful smile.“

“What a beautiful experience at sweet retreat! They have the best donuts both vegan and non-vegan in the whole of Long Beach“

I was greeted coming in and when i left i was given appreciation as a customer! made my morning start great!! i had to come back to give them an amazing review!!!“

“Convenient, in corner area with 7-11 there also. Get your dinner and a big gulp soda or coffee! They fill the plates enough to feed at least 2 people! Taste is great! Or I'm spoiled♡ maybe both. Attitude is always friendly with me. Discovered by circumstances and will keep going back!“

“So I got a regular chocolate glazed donuts, definitely one of the best donuts I have had so far. I also got a turkey sub, which I felt was a nice balance between bread, meat, and veggies. Bread was a little dry. They had quite a few ootions, they made sandwich fresh so it took a minute to get order.“

“This is a mom and pop donut shop on 7th street. Stopped by a few weeks ago to grab some donuts. They tasted like any other sugary goodness that contributes to diabetes. I also got their crossiant which I was a fan of. It was reasonably priced, cheaper than my local coffee shop and bigger. I don't each donuts all the time, but I'd recommend checking them out. Prices are reasonable and staff was nice.“

“My favorite our their cake donuts and my son loves the glazed donuts. Always quick service with a big smile to start our day. And lots of selection to choose from.

Kid-friendliness: They always have a big smile for my young son and sometimes throw in some bonus donut holes“

“Yummy! Customer service was awesome. Called in for pick up order and I’ve never been here so wasn’t sure if they do that. Simple enough - we ordered 4 breakfast sandwiches and 2 dozen donuts, mostly maple and everything was ready in 10 min. Nice owners and professional!“

“Sandwiches worth the price also the $.75c card fee is normal. Some places charge two dollars just to use your card there. It’s California. Things are expensive. Get over it for those worried about pricing card fees been coming here for the past 15 years and not once have they ever missed it is a family oriented place so do not expect something super big in grand. This is a loving family business that has been helping out the community whenever they can.“

“I love this shop, don't eat often but when I have a taste for a turkey and cheese croissant and French vanilla coffee, this is the place I go every time. Also, the customer service here from the young ladies is always welcoming and sweet. They are always professional and helpful. My daughter has me hooked on this shop.“

“When you first walk in Sweet Retreats the atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. The decore gives off a warm and positive vibe that makes it feel cosey. The customer service is the best I've had in a long time, that only will keep me coming back. And their vegan donuts are so amazing � they taste even better than regular donuts. I found my spot for vegan sweets“

“A true delight! The service at this donut shop was prompt and friendly—staff members always had smiles on their faces and were happy to help. As for the donuts, they were a game-changer! The flavors were unique and delicious, especially the lemon glaze. The ambiance is bright and airy, with fun touches like pastel colors and artwork that makes it feel like a cheerful, inviting space.“

“Wide variety of Donuts they have egg sandwiches and they have all kinds of really huge croissants. I like that they use kielbasa for the sausage on the sausage egg and cheese croissant. People are very nice very accommodating and the food is really good.“

“Do yourself a favor and sample one of Lina’s doughnuts before you die. The best I’ve ever had. Fresh, awesome flavor with just enough crunchy edge on my glazed old fashioned, and the apple fritters were so good, you’ll have to kill yourself (Ala movie Big Night). Loaded with real apples and crunchy edges and pillow soft body. YUM YUM YUM!!! Great coffee too. Like I said… the best I’ve ever had. We bought extra to take back to Colorado… they’re THAT good. Thanks Lina!!!“

“Staff is very friendly and helpful. If you love Boba, they are served in a pull-tab top plastic container. Many boba flavors to choose from, and I had coffee flavor and it's very good. The mochinut donuts comes in many different flavor. I really enjoy the strawberry funnel and chocolate churro. Try them out to see for yourself.“

“The best looking donuts you will find! 🍩

I’ve attached a couple imagines of donuts I’ve gotten here during there special events. When I want show stopping looking donuts, this is the only place I go to. Everyone is always impressed and asking where I got them. Each donut is a piece of art all with there own unique characteristics. I. Terms of flavor it like a 8/10 and in looks 10/10. Usually a box of 6 is like $40ish which to me makes so much sense because there all made in house. I will say if you want the cool designs the first day or 2 they are released, PREORDER them. Don’t stress or get disappointed when you don’t get them remember you could have preordered ahead.

Love this spot!“

“Donuts are super fresh and the coffee is very HOT ? be careful when drinking it.

Got here early this morning and guess what? A line out the door! In 30 years I never seen a line at a donut shop ever before, in fact this tells me that everything is awesome here!

Thank you staff for working as hard as your doing everyday. You guys are amazing ? ? ❤️

Thank you,“

“It’s an interesting place that makes me feel at home even though I’m not quite sure what that feeling is exactly. The neighbourhood is lively and diverse, it’s a safe space for me. I bought a turkey sandwich or a wrap, I can’t quite remember which, then hurried off on my way.“

“I had a really great time here and finished my video without any problems. It is definitely a place worth visiting for those who want to balance work and leisure.“
