Royal Donuts and Burger

Good doughnuts and friendly staff. I like their blended coffee drinks. Good place to study actually. It’s usually pretty quiet.

Even Lightning McQueen gets his donuts from Royal Donut!

Stopped by for a double cheeseburger and happy with the portion and how quickly it came out. They seemed very busy via drive through — definitely would come back. Lady there was very nice.

Best donuts in the area. Get the butterflies w the vanilla frosting. These donuts are solid. Good value. Burgers are good too. Not amazing but if you're hungry the combos come w a donut anyways. Good Service. Cool old school vibe!

Been going here for decades. Immediately thought there must be new ownership because of how it went downhill overnight.
Rude service, inattentive at best. Donuts were so old they tasted like cardboard with frosting!
They deleted my first review-don’t know how! Don’t waste your time or money!

South County iconic place, locals favorites!

Iconic burgers since 1986

I have been on a kick to go out of my way to support small businesses. I’ve driven by Royal Donuts and Burger when I drive my teenage daughter to/fro work on the weekends, but have never stopped by. Today, I decided to take her and my two other kids there to lunch after I picked her up from work.

It was easy to find a parking spot. I noticed two other cars in their drive thru while we walked up to the store. We ordered the Royal Burger pound burger with all of the fixings (lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo or ketchup), french fries, a 16 oz drink and your choice of either a cake or glazed donut. You can also make it a cheeseburger or a double cheeseburger. I got mine with cheese, one kid got one with ketchup only, and another kid chose a double cheeseburger with Swiss cheese and mayo and ketchup only. I asked if they could grill the onions for my burger and they said yes. We were there later in the afternoon, so we chose 2 glazed donuts and 1 chocolate cake donut from what was available. We ordered two Cokes from the fountain dispenser, an iced coffee (for an up charge with the combo) and also grabbed two chocolate milks from the self serve beverage coolers.

I was really impressed with the variety in the beverage cooler! I took a picture to post with my review.

We waited a short amount of time for our food. Maybe 5-10 minutes? It was really quick. And very delicious! The hamburgers are in sesame seed buns and remind you what a 1/4 pound burger should look like. The French fries were steak cut and perfectly salted and hot! For the price you pay, the combo was definitely worth it! The donuts were tasty, and a great dessert after the meal.

I’m definitely coming back to try their other products. They accept cash and card. I think there is a minimum of $6 to use a card, but no additional surcharge like other places.

Never have I ever walked into a donut store and been told I had to buy a minimum of six donuts, not only is this bizarre, but it's upsetting to think that you can't simply walk in and purchase a single donut from your local donut store. There's no doubt in my mind that this must be up a money laundering operation because who in their right mind would put this stipulation when purchasing a donut I would not recommend this place. ADAPT

I've been living in Trabuco Canyon for 15 yrs. I've never noticed this place and am embarrassed. The hamburgers are excellent and freshly prepared, extra pickles upon request. I plan to return this weekend with my family for breakfast and sample the menu. This place will become our go to breakfast sandwich place on weekends and quick hamburger place during the week. Can't wait for Saturday. Shop local.

Woman behind the counter kept chatting with a customer while totally ignoring me for several minutes. Coffee served was like WARM. Not going there again.
