25 Best Donuts near San Pablo

“This was my first visit to Donut King, a breakfast spot known for its sandwiches, donuts, and drinks. I stopped by in the morning after dropping off the kids at school. The parking lot is a bit small, and there were only one or two spots left when I arrived, but I managed to find a space without too much trouble.

Upon entering, the place seemed a bit dated, which initially made me hesitant. However, I was pleasantly surprised by their menu. While it’s nicely laid out, I do wish they offered a broader selection of donuts. The donuts they did have, though, turned out to be pretty good – flavorful and fresh. I tried a couple and was impressed enough to consider buying more in the future.

Aside from donuts, I also ordered a sausage, egg, and cheese croissant. It was actually quite good, with the croissant being perfectly flaky and the filling satisfying. This item alone makes me want to come back and try more of their breakfast sandwiches.

Overall, despite the minor issues with parking and the dated decor, Donut King offers a solid breakfast experience. Their donuts and sandwiches are worth a visit, and I’m eager to explore more of their menu. I would strongly recommend giving this place a try if you're in the area and looking for a good breakfast stop.“

“The donuts are fresh, fluffy and melt in your mouth. Randomly ordered from here on UberEats expecting average but finding exceptional! So many donut places with stale product… not here! I had the donut holes, coconut glazed donut and croissant… all excellent, will order again!“

“My boyfriend and I were checking out stiiizy, we were headed home and wanted some food. We stopped in because of the outside charm, the owners I believe might be husband and wife, anywho we got doughnuts, their lunch special of burger fries n a drink, plus a bacon egg n cheese bagel ( biggest bagels I have ever seen)

We don't live in El Cerrito, so it was nice to see something that has been around for almost 40 years. Bless you both, we will be stopping by again
Voted best doughnuts in El Cerrito I can see why.“

“Great products. I just wish I could figure out when they are actually open. Then seem to close quite a bit.“

“This spot has the better breakfast sandwich for someone looking for a quick bite to eat. The donuts are good too. I tried their chocolate chip cookies and was surprised that they were not some generic flavor actually tasted good! I can be a cookie snob so if you want, a decent cookie in a quick fix, this might be your spot. The sandwich has been consistent each time and I recommend giving it a try.“

“Stopped for breakfast one morning; what a delight! Tasty filling on a scrumptious bagel. The sight of all the donuts and pastries had us vowing to return. Which we did, scoring a box of various donuts and pastries and the biggest croissants I’ve ever seen. Definitely worth a return visit.“

“I try to give credit where credit is due. When it comes to pastries, I’ve yet to experience one that stands out among the rest. That is until I walked my happy self into Happy Donuts. I would have taken a picture of what I ordered but they were so moist and delicious it was gone before I knew it! It seems to be a husband wife Braun and Brain power duo running the place, playing their parts seamlessly. There were two aromas here; fresh clean and fresh baked! I’m not from here but I’m glad I made the detour. It was well worth it! PURPLE YAM!! They have a purple yam donut. The coffee cake donut will make you want coffee as an excuse to get the donut. It’s delicious in its own though. It’s worth saying more about HOWEVER, I need to devour this glazed donut! You can always tell how great they are if they have good specialty and standard donuts. I was told they have multiple locations however I recommend to is one. It was worth the drive.“

“Great old fashion donuts“

“I love this place and have been going for years. The quality of food remains fantastic and the owners are so kind and lovely, definitely helps cheer up an early morning. I used to work in a bakery and these donuts here are the best I’ve had since. Very fluffy and doesn’t taste like a manufactured sweet flavor at all (like some corporate chains). Hope to keep going here!“

“This place is AWESOME! Just a casual no fuss donut and sandwich joint. The apple fritter is a MUST. It is gigantic, delicious and unforgettable! I got it because it looked great and was hilariously large but the taste was perfect too, hard to explain how good it was and it lasted me two days!?“

“Omg best corndogs(the potato original and cheese and a bit of sugar dusted ?) I’ve ever had in my life and it was very reasonable priced. Also their strawberry ? lemonade with popping boba pearls is just ? Milk tea is delicious too. The young lady working the register is very nice and patient with you while ordering. I’ve yet to try their mochinuts but they look beautiful and delicious!It is small inside so you may want to avoid the time all the school kids gets out. Otherwise it’s super cute and very clean inside.My family and I are so happy they’re in our community and look forward to eating there very soon!

Kid-friendliness: It’s super cute inside and they have lots of sweet or savory options for kids and teens.“

“Inside: Dark, not updated, but clean.
Donuts: Dense, cakey. Only the top is glazed but it’s thick and the layer runs into the center hole a bit, giving a “filling” effect. I only tried the top shelf ones.
Price: Usually I expect to pay $3.00 per donut. This shop ranges $3.50-$4.00.“

“HERCULES is a great place to live crime rate is low compared to other cities . But it would help a lot to encourage neighborhood watch “ MODESTY ASIDE I DO . I have knocked to several houses esp when I was still working swing shift I kept my eyes open n still doing it if garages are open when I go hone from work n 1 time called the police station when 1 of the neighbor’s garage was opened n no one answered when I knocked her door . Let’s have a neighborhood watch all over “ HERCULES THIS IS OUR HOME AND WE HAVE PROTECT IT AS WELL AS THE PEOPLE WHO LIVES HERE . OUR CITY OFFICIALS SHOULD BE TOUGH LIKE ( MANILA PHILIPPINES ) MAYOR FRANCISCO DOMOGOSO HE MADE N MAKING MANILA A NICE PLACE TO LIVE IN . MANILA IS HOW MANY TIMES BIGGER THAN HERCULES !! HE WAS JUST A MAYOR FOR 7 MOS BUT MADE A LOT OF CHANGES NO WONDER PEOPLE LOVE HIM SO MUCH NOT ONLY IN MANILA BUT ALL OVER THE WORLD .“

“A truly delicious coffee and donut spot. I've driven by for years and was walking home after dropping my car off for repairs. The assortment of donuts caught my senses. Some looking artistic and delicious. Others came in for menu items off the grill. Watching the diverse group of customers was fun. Older, younger, and so on. The folks behind the counter are friendly and welcoming. Highest recommendation.“

“In addition to nice fresh donuts they also have a wonderful lunch steam table with chicken, chicken strips, fried fish, steamed vegetables, fried rice, chow mein and a few other items at very reasonable prices. I usually get the fish plate with vegetables or chicken and chow mein. You'll have to go early though as they sell out frequently throughout the day. They also have a nice assortment of bottled drinks.

Parking: Parking is a little tricky because it's a tiny lot but be patient as cars are frequently pulling in and out and you'll be able to find a spot in a matter of minutes.“

“By far the most creative and exquisite coffee drinks! Plus Pepples vegan donuts!! Danger Will Robinson...addictive And live music on Sundays.“

“Longtime staple for deep fried grease cakes, having loved *right above next door on 2525 Durant—the smells of baking usually arrive around dinner time. For another late-night stint. Donuts“

“I've stopped by here a few times and it's been an interesting experience. I've only got breakfast food so I can't speak on the other options but overall it is a good establishment with good pricing. There aren't many options at a similar price point in the area but the food I did get wasn't the best quality but it wasn't terrible. It did mess my stomach up a bit but was worth it.“

“I’m not a coffee maven, but the tea and sweets were excellent. (My friends who appreciate good coffee say that it’s excellent as well.) Good service, even in the face of an exacting clientele.“
