Solid solid donut shop in UC. Worth the drive if you can go out of the way to get here. Located in a strip mall in UC, they are easily accessible and fairly priced. They have been family owned for as long as I have been alive so you'll get super friendly service (remember to tip them well!) The apple fritters are amazing as are their cruellers. I have tried a ton of donut shops around town (and around the country) and they have a distinct taste in their sugar base - it shows through in their glazed donuts - try the glazed twist to get the most of this flavor!

The employees give me a free donut if I clean the glass in front of the case for them. But the last time I did this was around 1980, so the policy might have changed since then. I hope I haven't gotten any employees in trouble.

food was good but the service not the greatest. they have a surcharge for using card and when my mom tried getting a new cup of coffee instead of a refill it was 3.50 instead of 75c. there a bunch of scoffing and judgement from the service ladies and it just could’ve been a better experience.

I’ve been coming to Golden Donut since I was a kid. The donuts have always been very nice, but I actually prefer the breakfast sandwiches a little bit more. They also serve a variety of coffee, tea, juices, milks, and energy drinks.
The new owner, Sandy, is a very nice Khmer woman who does a great job running the business. While they were ash only for a long time, they now take cards, which is very convenient.
I recommend stopping by to try out the bear claws, cake donuts, or bagel breakfast sandwiches the next time you’re at University Square on Governor Drive.

Honest Critiques
The donut holes were soft and tasted okay. The male who worked the counter was indifferent. He did not say thank you, or have a nice day. He also was sarcastic when I asked if the donut holes were soft, and if they were made today. I personally will not be visiting again.

These Donuts are delicious and Large. My favorite is the Buttermilk Old Fashion. They'll warm my donut for me. I just learned they accept Venmo, otherwise Cash. I will drive past KK, to get these Donuts ? ?When I need to use the Laundromat, I look forward to treating myself here

Golden Donut never disappoints! From their wide variety of mouthwatering donuts to their prompt service, it's always a delightful experience. If you're in the area, don't miss out on this gem!

Maybe a little high priced but excellent donuts. I got two dozen and then it turned out. There were only six people at the meeting and four didn't want donuts. So two of us got a dozen each. LOL. Wish that I wasn't out of town and couldn't take them with me. I would definitely recommend this place for excellent donuts

Between Medicare appointments, I needed a mid-morning snack—my first time at Golden Donut. I ordered a chocolate and a glaze twist. Both were great. They tasted fresh, and the price was in line with what I expected. Yummy!
