Beyond Disappointing. Please note this review is specifically for the Vegan & Gluten Free Donuts. I’ll gladly update this review if there are updated/changes to these options.
For a place that takes pride (clearly visible in their regular donuts), why the hell would you put vegan & gluten free in the same donut without providing regular vegan options too? To top it off, all the donuts are $4.25 EACH for the tiniest bite size donut. It doesn’t matter what kind of toppings, frosting, glaze etcetera that you put on it, a gluten free item is tasteless (or I should say tastes the exact same with a worse after taste than any regular dairy made donut). Also for those that are unaware, most gluten free items are dry too.
It doesn’t say on the menu nor did the very sweet & kind hostess that helped us tell me about them until after I asked her what those little tiny things the Pastry Chef was making in the back. She said those are your donuts & proceeded to tell me they were baked not fried & that they were both vegan & gluten free. I was ordering these donuts thinking that they had the option of EITHER vegan OR gluten free options.
Very disappointing considering I researched this space & was told by local friends that it’s a must. The regular donuts look absolutely gorgeous & taste (I had to stay neutral about the overall venue & took a bite of my Girlfriends donut) pretty damn good.
Do better on the Vegan & Gluten Free donuts. Keep up the high integrity & high quality product that you showcase in the glass cases up front. I’ll look forward to coming back in the future. Hopefully there will be some better options (I’m back in town in November).
Thank you Team Parlor Doughnuts for the overall hospitality.

Got the most genuine, happy, enthusiastic service from Mason this morning… he was having a great day and made ours great too! Cassidy also made a great coffee. Best service I’ve had at this location!

This is hands down the best and most authentic donut place! Every donut tastes amazing, soft, and full of flavor. Every time we’re in town, we have to stop by and grab some because they’re just that good. It’s definitely a must-visit spot for anyone who loves donuts!

The doughnuts here are really good! I saw a lot of people walking at the Oside Beach with boxes of these and I went it to get one and a cup of coffee.
The service was great, servers are super friendly. The ambience is chill and welcoming. The doughnuts looked tasty and they have mini doughnuts too plus the prices are reasonable.
I got the maple bacon and it was delicious paired with their latte. I also came back to but the mini doughnuts and my friends enjoyed every flavor.
The city of Oceanside people and tourists walk around with this mysterious box. And, I had to be part of it, glad I found it. It is a must taste double layer doughnut pastry.

We couldn’t get enough Parlor Doughnuts during our one week stay in Oceanside. We wanted to try them all but there are too many flavors. We loved the apple pie one and coconut cream filled. What a unique take on the over populated standard doughnut market. I think that’s why they’re so popular. Don’t plan on eating there, they don’t have seating. Walk down to Pannikin to get a coffee with your sweets.

I like to enjoy my pastries with a cup of coffee, however service decided to help customers in the middle of making my coffee order. By the time it was ready, it was cold And we had already ate our donut. Very hot and humid in the building.
Pretty good.
