28 Best Donuts in Los Angeles

“Holey Grail Donuts in LA is a must-visit for anyone looking for a unique donut experience. Their taro-based donuts, fried to order, are a refreshing departure from the usual offerings. The flavors are creative and inspired, using fresh, locally sourced ingredients, and there’s a good mix of both sweet and savory options. The donuts are light, crispy on the outside, and perfectly chewy on the inside. Plus, their eco-conscious approach, using sustainable ingredients and biodegradable packaging, is a bonus. It’s a bit pricier than your average donut spot, but worth it for the quality and originality.“

“Great costumer service and very friendly staff.“

“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.“

“Yummy! I had the Impossible Burrito with avocado. I was afraid it would be too spicy or greasy..sooo not the case. It was so delicious 💕 The flavor was multi-layered, surprisingly outstanding and it had some crunchiness. I will definitely be returning soon. The bonus is the staff that was welcoming and most helpful.“

“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“

“Great Doughnuts! I would definitely recommend 10/10 👍🏽“

“I got the huge cinnamon roll. To my surprise it was only $5. That wasn’t even the best part the lady that was cashier on Monday (September 30) was so nice and provided amazing customer service. Will be going back to taste more options.“

“?So delicious! First visit. Referred by a friend who saw a TikTok. Tried the Crème Brûlée this morning. Cracked the thin sugar shell to reveal the soft crème filling encased in fluffy mildly sweet cake -- almost like angel food or funnel cake apparently made with rice flour. If I skip lunch...another donut?“

“I’ve been here 4 days in a row now it’s that good!!! Everyone is so nice, it’s sensory friendly and the coffee is amazing. I tired their pumpkin spice latte and it is amazing! I’ll try their apple next!“

“I remember buying a donut on my walk to Rosemont elementary school in the early 2000's. I left the city but everytime I visit my mother I stop here!! for an iced coffee and a breakfast sandwich! If ur ever in the area I definitely recommend this is a real "mom& pop shop" where u will most likely be helped by the owners 💖💖💖💖💝💝 & the quality of the food will make your tummy happy!! Cash Only!! almost forgot!

Kid-friendliness: Yes!“

“Always get my green tea smoothie, and some combo meals teriyaki chicken sometimes beef broccoli with fried rice and chow mein for lunch when I’m nearby. Very friendly family owned couple. Been there for years and always welcoming Henry is such a good cook ! Love their meals and donuts ! Definitely come check them out !“

“Stayed nearby Big Jim's Donuts when i was in LA with my friend. We visited them a few times at night when we needed to satisfy our sweet tooth. Really nice uncle and aunty who ran the place of unique charm. The variety was great and the donuts were definitely nice. Will definitely visit them again when i'm back in LA.“

“I was pleasantly surprised at the freshness of the donuts and coffee in the evening. I am a Dunkin fan, but buying donuts in the evening at a Dunkin is something I usually regret. This was not the case at this Dunkin. Could it be that they bake the donuts more than once per day, as other Dunkins do?“

“would definitely go here again!!! doughnuts were so delecious!!!“

“Amazing coffee and stunning breakfast burritos“

“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“

“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.“

“I’m in LOVE with these donuts!!! Not to mention how sweet they are in there!!! So nice, incredible donuts that are BETTER than the “other” big donut place out here.... Sorry Cali, Crafted is the place!!!!“

“A simple, family-run donut shop that I have been coming to for my entire life. The staff treats you like family, and the donuts are the best in Los Angeles. The Maple Bar, Apple Fritter, and cinnamon roll are stand outs.

To me, this is benchmark I compare all in the city to, and when compared to Miss Donuts, pretty much all fall short. Don't sleep on this hidden gem.“

“i love coming here for the #11 ham and cheese croissant, it's always fresh and delicious! the staff is always friendly, very nice and actually care for their customers.my nephew loves their donuts, always fresh and their strawberry/banana shake.“

“The service was quick and friendly. The donuts were great and very reasonably priced. I thought this shop was great! The store itself is a bit shabby, but with great service and donuts, it does what it needs to.

Parking: Parking was easy and plentiful right in front of the store.“

“They have all I always want
The taste of new drink Matcha. Einspanner I tried will be my favorite drink from now on yeh~~
Also their tteok bokki suprisingly it is very delicious. I bought in small just fillup my hunger but definitely will get large next time.“

“This is my favorite donut shop in LA. So far I've been to Donut Man, Yum Yum, Olympic, Kinley, Echo Park, Winchell's, and Donut Friend. The maple buttermilk bar and maple bar are both to die for - very fresh with delicious frosting. The cake crumb was also very good. Inexpensive donuts. Looking forward to my next visit.“

“I visited this place right after trying the Old Ferry Donut. I really enjoyed both. This place is more of your classic donut place, but it’s done really well! No old oil flavor, the bread is light and fluffy, and those bear claws…boy oh boy they’re the best I’ve ever had! Like I said, the bread is light but that bear claw had some heft! They weren’t afraid to really stuff those things.

Highly recommend if you’re passing by.“
