15 Best Donuts near Palm Desert

“Damn fine donuts. Reminds me of the day when Americans were fat.
I want to wake up...
Have a coffee... Black. Bitter. Hot. Um.
Grab a French cruller... Sweet. Melts. The hole. My drifts... All the holes I've been. Literally... metaphorically... physically emotionally... Bottomless... Sweaty and wet. So yum
I read my paper... The Times. Endangered if not extinct. Krinkle. Ink black and white and red all over.... Like a Dalmatian on the shoulder of the highway.
I light cigarette. 9:13 on my Timex. I think it's Friday. Off to work I scurry... I'm late. Maybe an hour... I don't know.
I start thinking about that delicious donut. I think about holes. I think of deeznuts. To hell with work. I go to the massage parlor.“

“One of the best and least expensive donut shops in the area. I love both the food and the excellent service. The donuts are all baked freshly in the early morning hours. Their selection is second to none. I like their donuts better than Dunkin's or Winchell's. I believe that it is a family run operation. So they take extra pride in running a very clean and excellent business. I highly recommend this place if you are a lover of all types of donuts. May they be in business many more years.“

“Is anyone going to talk about the fact that donut shops like Winchell’s are charging Starbucks prices for their drip coffee? Why are we charging $2.69 for a small drip coffee when it costs literally 50 cents to make and is 95% water. When I shop at Ross I don’t expect Bloomingdale prices and when I shop at Winchelle’s I don’t expect Starbucks prices.“

“Hands down the best mom&pop donut ? shop in the desert! The storefront is humble, but inside you’ll find fresh donuts that are sweet, fluffy, and delish! The photos don’t do them justice. They also have croissants, bagels, apple fritters, buttermilk bars, etc. The new owners (2024) are super nice and strikingly professional. We always stop here on our way to La Quinta. Worth it! ?

Parking: Small parking lot but plenty of spaces. There’s also curb parking behind the building if you want to avoid potential door dings.“

“This place is crazy good! No matter where we travel the first thing I look for is a great doughnut shop and Vienna Doughnuts has taken over my #1, must go to, to die for, spot!!! We were in the area for several days and tried several doughnuts and all were unbelievably good! The owner is SO kind and welcoming. You can't help but have a positive experience when visiting the Palm Springs area.“

“Yum!!!! We love The Jelly Donut! Great donuts. The jelly donuts are filled the way they should be, with lots of jelly. And the raised sugar twists make for the best mid-morning snack. There's a gym next door if you feel especially guilty before/after having a donut, but whatever you do, stop by. The owners are friendly and wonderful, and prices are entirely reasonable.

Parking: There's always plenty of room in the parking lot.“

“great stuff there😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😆😆😆😆😆😆😉😆😉😉😁😁😁😊😎“

“A favorite! The ladies are so patient while the boys make all-important donut decisions. I had a nice breakfast sandwich. The atmosphere is fun and friendly and everyone seems like a regular. The staff always says "See you tomorrow!" With good reason. You'll want to go back!“

“I picked up some donuts for a few of our clients, but I struggled to carry all the boxes. Kenny noticed my difficulty and kindly offered to assist, despite being occupied with clients. Fortunately, some gentlemen also noticed my predicament and helped me transport all the donut boxes to my car in one trip.“

“First timers! In donut heaven! Trays FULL of scrumptious looking donuts. Chose 1/2 dozen deal…glazed donut & twist, sugar coated twist, cinnamon roll, white cake/choc frosted/coconut & apple fritter! All YUMMY & super fresh and larger in size than most bakeries we are used to. Reasonably priced and within walking distance from our rental…. ++?❤️ ? ?‍♀️ We’ll be back! Service super friendly & efficient. ????“

“We come to Palm Springs every year and this has been our stop for donuts. We have four boys ages 8-18. I gauge how good donuts are by them and how fast the box empties. These donuts are always gone in under a minute. Grocery store donuts?? I don’t get that at all. We just made our stop about 15 minutes ago and the quality is still there. The boys will attest to how good they tasted. All of the donuts were soft and fresh.I did take a star off for the inside, or more specifically, the area behind the case. It is empty looking and in disarray. I do miss the petite woman that was always behind the counter. She was always so sweet to my boys when we would come in. It also seemed to be in good order behind the counter. Not a huge deal but loses a star for that unfortunately. Still, we recommend for the donuts.“

“This Donut shop is a Gem. Fresh donuts every time we come and it's been that way for years. Family owned and operated to perfection. I live 30 min away and make this trip for the best Donuts in the Coachella Valley areas.... Go try it yourself and you will be a believer.“

“Really good fresh donuts, and a complete assortment. This is from someone who seeks out donut shops where I live in Denver and places I visit. The owner was very friendly. When we were there, to the customer ahead of us when they left he said “I’ll see you tomorrow”. And as we were leaving he said to the next customer “The usual?”. Obviously he has repeat business. Which I am also a repeat customer.“

“rápido el servicio y atención“

“This location the staff is always friendly and very helpful. One time we ordered donuts and a kind employee brought us waters to our seat out of kindness because we forgot to order something to drink. It’s always clean and the donuts are superb chewy, moist and perfect sweetness. Good job everyone who works here.“
