14 Best Donuts in Pasadena

“Great spot! My mom is celiac and it’s rare (like never happens!) that she can find a gf donut. This spot is dedicated gluten free and she was soooo stoked to visit Hello Yr Welcome twice during her recent visit to LA. We got 3 donuts her first time in and 1/2 dozen the second (bc she loved them so much). They were all very flavorful and delicious!

Staff is super friendly and we enjoyed talking with them. Oh and the coffee is great. I got some delicious espresso / good flavor and not bitter - they know how to pull a shot ☕

Also worth noting that all the breakfast sandos and other items look delicious as well! But we were just focused on my moms rare opportunity to enjoy a donut

Worth getting here early as they do tend to sell out of some flavors by afternoon. We found there’s plenty of street parking in the surrounding area, even on the weekends.

Thanks for an awesome dedicated gf bakery, hello yr welcome team 🙏“

“Best doughnuts in Pasadena and everything tastes fresh“

“This place is really good but they don't have all donuts available at the time they open. Went in around 540 (open at 5) and they only had cake donuts and old fashioneds.

I'd call ahead or go in later if you're looking to buy an early morning dozen.“

“Absolutely phenomenal in house baked donuts, pastries and sandwiches. Tina was so welcoming and helpful. This place is an absolute ‘must visit’ for anyone in the area. Try the ‘Cronut’…half croissant, half donut!“

“Wonderful neighborhood Doughnut 🍩 Shop. Maple & Chocolate 🍫 Bars are soft and fresh. Good amount of Maple & Chocolate on them. Glazed are good too. Just an overall Old School Doughnut Shop, with coffee ☕ and many other drinks! Even Thai Tea 🍵 my Highest recommendation. Family Owned and friendly truly deserving of your patronage!“

“Love this place! :)“

“Featured in the The Donut King 🫶🫶🫶 @bcdonuts_pasadena this donut shop founded in 1987 represents the legacy of Cambodian representation in the donut scene in SoCal today!

Great people, great food, great drinks! A local favorite as evidenced by the ongoing traffic and first name accounts!

Go support them!!! Their breakfast options and drinks are also solid 🩵👌“

“I love Sidecar!!! This was my first time at the Padadena location, which seemed a little cramped, but has a good flow. There is a big parking lot in back, which is the entrance. There is a counter if you want to sit and enjoy your donuts/drink there; there is also seating outside. They get busy, but are efficient. I'm not sure if Donut Day affected this. They are conveniently located at Arroyo and Filmore, and I would easily return to this location.“

“Very enjoyable and they even had a dairy free option for one in our party that is lactose intolerant. Frozen treats for the doggos is also nice. Lots of nice seating and the setting in a vintage gas station replica is cute and adds to the charm.“

“Grade A (93): Donuts are usually fresh and tastes great although these days I'm not eating that much donuts but if I have an urge every so often I stop by and I pick up a glazed buttermilk, and that's some time pass for my body to process it before I go back and get it again 🤣😂“

“Decided to randomly stop in while waiting for a friend - the place is nice and quiet. I got a medium mocha cappuccino and a single glazed donut. Everything tasted delicious. I could totally see myself visiting more often to get a coffee and study in here with the peace and quiet.“

“I LOVE this place! I bring all of my friends who visit to Randy's and they also always love the place. The donuts are always fresh and delicious. I love the points system. The staff at always friendly and also offer good recommendations.“

“The food, bread and drinks are very delicious. Although frapes seem sweet to me. Delicious bagels and a great variety. Fresh ingredients and they make bread right there
Today I ordered Turkey bagel with avocado and it was super delicious. I liked their dressing and garlic bread. It is in a small square and there is free parking. They have a table with the calories of each product (I liked that) The place is simple, I would put a little more decoration on it ?and the service is normal, I'm used to the warm service of Mexico then ?. They have takeaway and dine-in service. Food as such ?⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ IG: foodie_girl_mx“
