Oceanside Donut

I love coming to this donut café. This is a great place to bring your family, your friends or just passing El Camino Real, the donuts are made in house. They are fresh fluffy, and they use high-quality ingredients. The owner and her family are so friendly, kind and funny. this donut café is tucked into a strip mall off of Stater Bros. The filling in the donuts are always on point compared to the corporate chains. A perfect amount of custard/ icing! The apple fritter is best in show!!

Reluctant to leave a review on my favorite hole in the wall donut shop lest it gives away my secret! Super fresh yummy donuts that live up to SoCal’s donut reputation. Hole in the wall, no frills, classic place - a few tables, plain black coffee, donuts. It’s a vibe! The owners have been very kind to our kids, occasionally offering them free donut holes as we ordered. Prices are great. And they have my favorite: Boston cream, custard filled!

Today I had the choice between this small mom and pop local donut shop and the big chain donut shop I had tried previously and to remain unnamed and my usual spot nearby was closed, so of course I decided to stop here and see what they're all about.

I'm glad I did, because it can not be overstated how nice it is to walk into a place like this. They don't have the massive selection of their competitors but that's OK, this is reminiscient of the small time donut shop some of us have had in our lives at one point or another.

This is a great place. Go here!

Doughnuts were tasty and soft, the croissants pulled apart easily, and the owner was very nice.

Oceanside Donut is a family-run shop that is one of the best doughnut stores in the area. Best of all, the owner is extremely kind and friendly. Their croissant sandwiches are delicious. They are my go-to stop for doughnuts.

The service was friendly and quick. She made us feel like regulars. And the donuts were fresh and soft, melt in your mouth delicious. The ham and cheese croissants were also AMAZING. Yum!!

Lady behind the counter was so rude and dismissive like I was bothering her. Pretty sure it was the owner. I walked out

Decent donuts. Dont ask for a dozen unless you want half of them to be their worst selling donuts. Better off going somewhere you can pick what you pay for

I have been going here for some time now. Always the best donuts around.

Worst donut shop ever, the place is nasty, I was standing looking at the donuts to see which one I like, she said I had enough time after being there for 1 minute, sweat was falling from her face donuts ? on the floor in the back health department need to come there it's time for another inspection. I would never invite my friends or family here

My normal donut shop was closed and I just had to have an apple fritter...I'm sure you understand. So this place came up as close by and I headed there immediately. The staff was super friendly and the apple fritter was great! When...I got back to my car and noticed a free donut hole in the bag! That is the best way to start your day!
