This place came highly recommended,
and I see why!!! These donuts are absolutely delicious. They're not too sweet, yet the flavors are both light and.... impactful. I highly recommend, and I'll definitely be back 💯💯💯

This place has been my go to for my occasional donut hankering for the last few years, and they never disappoint!! Consistently great quality. They’ve got the flavors and the textures nailed. No wrong choices, but the Bernie has gotta be my favorite!! Not to mention, their espressos are delicious too. Chef’s kiss!

So delicious. Ordered the creme brûlée, the Sean Pecanery, and a couple of the salted maple. I can’t pick a favorite. The NOLA coffee is also an absolute treat. If you haven’t been, you should check it out!

Donut Savant are my favorite donuts! Anytime I'm in Oakland, I try to get some. The cronuts are declious. I had a friend buy a bunch donuts from here to have it as part of their dessert table at their wedding. It was a big hit as well.

I've been coming here since 2021. I love the donuts here. For coffee, I often order the salted maple latte (not listed on the menu).

These are the best donuts I've had in the Bay Area (yes, better than Bob's). I've noticed that lines are getting longer, so you might be in for a wait, especially if you come on a Saturday.

Don't miss the 007 (Sean Pecanery) and if you're lucky, they'll have a WTF (What The Fluff - peanut butter and marshmallow fluff 🤤🤤). Amazing donuts and staff!

This place rules. We've loved it since it used to be at 19th street Bart and have become loyal to the East Oakland location. A special gift are their seasonal soufganyot for Chanukah. The vanilla bean custard is otherworldly. This place is just the best.

In the land of the bland, there’s a beacon that calls, The Donut Savant, where temptation enthralls. Cron’ts that flake like a whispered breeze, Layers of dreams that aim to please.

Cinnamon twirls and buttermilk's embrace, Cream-filled wonders, a confectionary grace.
From chocolate so rich it’ll make grown men sway, to bites so tender, they melt dismay.

I’ve yet to try if the brews are divine, but their pastries alone are a heavenly sign.
So heed my words, and bring a friend too, The Donut Savant is waiting for you.
