50 Best Donuts near South El Monte

“One of the best donut shops in LA County. They make amazing cinnamon crumb donuts that are even better when fresh out of the oven. The service is great too. The older lady always has my donuts ready when I come in and is always wishing me a good day. Very welcoming atmosphere!“

“Small establishment with great blueberry muffins, but I recommend their ham and egg breakfast croissants with cheese,, they have a selection of donuts and also bagels along with refreshments and coffee.. they have Indoor seating but no AC unfortunately,

Parking: Limited parking but there's parking available on the city street.“

“This place is a family owned business and an absolute gem with the sweetest staff! I always drop by before I have a team meeting or a family outing. The blueberry donuts are so fresh, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. Muffins are also out of this world. I always go for the blueberry or banana nut muffins. Everything is always fresh at Wen’s 🥰“

“Please be patient to the employees here! Since the recent pass of the 20$ fast food minimum wage, their on staff employees were reduced by one person. In the morning rushes, there's 3 employees and towards the afternoon, there's 2. Keep in mind that because there is no drive-thru, they are bombarded with in-person, mobile walk-ins, Uber Eats/Curbside orders!That being said, they are incredibly friendly and will try to get through orders as fast as they can!“

“Best donuts this side of the Mississippi! Returning early 2019. YAY!!!“

“Thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to the charming, highly-rated Hello You're Welcome café. They make and bake everything in house- you can even see the ovens. Really friendly staff with a slight hippie vibe. Some items were made with almond flour, like their giant chocolate chip cookie, so I had to skip them (allergic). I was pleasantly overwhelmed by a delicious gigantic frittata slice with bacon, onions, and tater tots inside. Togadachi coffee is really interesting: the beans were fermented with lavender. Extra sugar helped me adjust to the unique flavor. The wall full of retail items features coffee beans in VHS boxes, which is a first! I love their mugs and bought one to take home.“

“I’ve stopped here a few times and have never been disappointed. Always good conversation and a plethora of choices. I’ve NEVER had a bad selection and I’ve never got the same thing twice.

For those that it matters to, this is a well-established business that’s been running a long time. Family owned and operated. They’ll continue getting my business every week.“

“Best doughnuts in Pasadena and everything tastes fresh“

“I have been going to Rose’s since the early 90’s, I even met my husband there while in high school. Rose’s is a staple of our community, always a kind face, a kind welcome and conversation to be had. Wonderful people, delicious food! Unlike any other!“

“Wow their glazed is one of the best I’ve tasted. Texture and flavor like Krispy Kreme without as much sugar. Chocolate bar was too - best chocolate bar I had in a while, perfect sweet and dough airiness. All the circular donuts had a little bit too much dough air but it was still very chewy, like donut tree’s dough airiness but problem with donut tree is the dough is too rigid.
This place has some donuts that are better than rainbow donuts. I would say they’re pretty on par for food quality, except this place is much more enticing due to box presentation and friendly staff/owner with literate English. But the chocolate bar and glazed is too good!!“

“So my brother brought donuts over to my house and he bought them from these. These are the best donuts I think I've ever tried. He bought the croissant donuts to make the one that I'm eating. They're so flaky and they have layers. No lie. This is like the best don't I think I've ever had in my life and it's so close to home. I've never been to this donut shop. I think maybe I stopped there before but never really paid attention. Didn't get the croissant donuts. These are a must try the croissant donuts. I give it a 10 out of 10. And he said that was like $17 for a dozen of donuts. That's not bad because other places charge more.“

“Jean Donuts is a 1000% way to support small businesses than large retail donut chains like Krispy Kreme. The donuts were not too sweet, just perfectly sweet and glazed on top. Moisture of the bread was spot on, and the fruit flavor of the blueberry donut appears to be the main winner. Donuts are very budget friendly $1.99 per donut. Lady in the front was very kind and generous. We will come back again!!“

“PK Donuts are the best I've ever had. Their dough is top quality and has a special taste. Our favorite place to go and family owned. 😊“

“It’s a total hole in the wall but 100/10 (yes 100/10) recommend. First day I went, I was scared go get out of my car but glad I did! Their donuts are amazing!!! You can tell they are made from scratch and with care. I got their iced coffee, it’s amazing! I don’t know what they do to it. But get it. They seem to be owned by sweet Asian/korean family, where English clearly isn’t their first language, so communication was a bit tougher….. but damn they have an amazing personality!! Great sense of humor, always smiling and laughing. I’m an out if towner, they recognized me immediately ok only a second video and even remembered I was going home that day. I wish they were near my house. (Well actually I’m not. I’d spend too much money and get way too fat) anyways, go give them a try!“

“Feels and tastes like love. From the extremely friendly and welcoming person taking the order, to the cook in the back. I got a coffee, donut and a #7 (chicken sandwich) and idk what kinda delicious seasoning they use but it's perfect. I'll be coming backfor sure“

“This Yum Yum donuts is THE BEST in the San Gabriel area. The staff is very polite, professional and efficient. Both Sophia and Viegney are wonderfully genuine human beings who are kind and ready to be of service to others. The baker is phenomenal, his donuts are not greasy/oily and they are very well done fresh each day. If you want to eat something very Yummy; Yum Yum donuts at Maine and Los Angeles St is THE PLACE.“

“I didn't realize how spoiled we were to have such fresh and tasty donuts so close to home until we tried another place, on vacation, and were severely disappointed...

Aside from the pure quality, they have fun making cool donuts, like ninja turtle donuts, Dodgers donuts, holiday-themed donuts...

Thank you May, and the rest of the staff, for always being kind, for delivering a consistently high quality product, and for putting a smile on my mother's face when we bring her your doughnuts.“

“I'm new in the neighborhood, from New York. They make great coffee, doughnuts, drinks and sandwiches. The girl was pleasant and spoke politely. The prices are good and this will now be my go to coffee shop. I highly recommend this coffee spot.“

“This is the greatest little donut shop ever. these donuts are what a donut should be. Light, fluffy moist and so tasty. I don't know what they do different but it is better than the usual donut. And the prices are typical donut prices not the higher priced for specialized or premium donut shops.
We used to live in the neighborhood around the shop and took it for granted. Now that we have moved out of state, We have found there is nothing quite like A&A donuts. We stop every opportunity when we visit the area. Any of our friends and neighbors who travel to the area (Disneyland, Knotts, L.A....) we tell them its worth the trip to grab donuts here.. And they all agree!!“

“The workers are very lively and nice people! They have a good variety of foods and drinks and their donuts and other types of foods are priced well and are very cheap unlike most donut shops nowadays. I was surprised how light, fluffy, and perfect their glaze donuts were. An easy and relaxing spot if you’re looking for a cheap and tasty brunch!👍“

“Delicious food. Came in due to traffic and found this little gem. Tlayudas are massive and has generous servings of cheese with tomato and avocado 🥑

Ended ordering a Cafe de olla and a pan dulce.

Staff are very nice and attentive too“

“great donuts! great service!“

“I just love this place. 1 day I was looking on Google for early morning donut shop that was open and I found this place. It opens at 430am. It's also a drive threw. This place is a little hidden gem. If you're ever in Elmonte area, I totally recommend it. They're coffee. It's off the hook. And the donuts are always fresh. My brother and I love going there.
It's family oriented. I just can't express how much I really love this place. The coffee is so delicious. I give it a 10 out of a 10 better than any Starbucks. They also have ice coffee's flavored coffees. And it doesn't break the bank,“

“Best Donuts in Downey. The staff are amazing. We've been going here over 10 years. Their croissants are soft and buttery. You cannot go wrong with their Apple Frittler. The traditional donuts are always on point. And their specialty donuts like the oreo cookie and fruity pebbles are yummy.“

“I do really like it here the owner is super friendly not rude like other owners, his lady making the sandwiches is super nice as well and helps as a Spanish translator, if that helps, the donuts are absolutely fresh and fluffy and the croissants are super super delicious fluffy and crispy!! I like to eat here once in a while when I’m craving a good breakfast before work , he’s always busy and everybody seems to know him and I don’t think I have seen anyone not buy a dozen donuts here !! 5 stars highly recommend !!“

“His doughnuts are the 'Best!" Get their early B4 they are ALL GONE!!! My favorite is Jonathan's Grandma's apple fritter! 'BEST DONUTS EVER!" DELICIOUSLY FRESH,TASTY TIME!¡ 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩“

“Best shaved ice ever!“

“Excellent service, sweet ladies, great prices & a humble atmosphere�“

“I discovered JJs by accident when I made an improper u turn into traffic, and it was one of the best mistakes of my life. I dream of their breakfast sandwiches, especially the croissant one. By far some of the best quality and amount of food for your money and the friendly staff make the experience even more enjoyable. You wouldn't assume this from driving past, but JJs is a Michelin star restaurant in the making and I am obligated to make a pitstop any time I drive through along the 10.“

“When Im craving a donut this is the place to go. The staff are always friendly and any time of the day they always have multiple selection of donuts. I always recommend friends and family to purchase from them.
I highly recommend you give them a try when you’re in the neighborhood.“

“daddys donuts are absolutely amazing always fresh i highly recommend if I could give a 1 million star i definitely would. best donuts in Florida!“

“Wow... The doughnuts are AMAZING.... the donuts dough is so soft.. I was reluctant to get into the place due to the outside appearance, but the donuts and cakes they make are delicious, and like I said the dough is so tender and soft... It's my new favorite place to get donuts ?. Definitely will come back and I 100% recommend this donut shop. Go in and try it you won't be disappointed. They also have sandwiches and the drinks are super hot... I got a vanilla cappuccino and the drink was super hot ...“

“Donuts are so fresh and delish. Been going there since they opened. Lunch is also good and freash.“

“Every day,their donuts are fresh😋😋😋👍👍👍“

“I love going here all the time before or after school. The items aren't so expensive and are a good price. The sandwiches and boba there are so good I get some all the time I'm there. It a good place to grab something and go, or to even just sit down and eat. My friends and I go here to get something and to study or talk. The workers are nice there, and are quick when getting your order done. I recommend to try at least one of their sandwiches, it always good.“

“The best donuts in town. Great food and great service and the staff are super friendly. Fresh food too. The burrito and the terriyaki chicken bowl are pretty popular in there. Besides those, they serve a variety kinds of breakfast, lunch and dinners. My most favorite place to grab my daily food.“

“by far they have the best donuts! My taste buds never have had enough, i come here mostly every day and love how nice and welcoming the workers are. Everyone is super friendly! keep up the good job 👏🏽

also, they’re open until 10 pm! so if your craving an amazing snack COME HERE YOU WONT REGRET IT“

“Love this place! :)“

“We came in from out of town and wanted a sweet treat to end the night. We stopped by here and the donuts were so good! The man behind the counter, who I assume was the owner was very nice and let us hang out inside for as long as we wanted. Great donuts, kind service, and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend!“

“Donuts 🍩 are soft and delicious 😋. There's a variety to choose from. They also make really good bagels 🥯 and croissants sandwiches 🥪 😋. With a good 👍🏼 coffee ☕️. You could eat inside there's plenty of chairs and tables. People here are very nice.“

“The #24 breakfast sandwich is very filling. It would be nice if there was a little less mayo and the cucumber was cut up a little more. The chocolate donut was good but crumbled very easily. Staff is friendly, will definitely stop by again!“

“They always have a lot of different flavors to choose from, and it’s fun to pick out a box with new combinations each visit. The donut “dressing” and toppings are amazing and creative, but the flavors are well balanced so the donuts are not too sweet, just super satisfying and delicious.“

“Some of the best donuts around. Have been the same for many many years. Food and coffee are great. Service always with a smile. She always refuses my tip and throws in extra donuts. Prices are super. I drive out of my way when I want a good donut to go there. Hope they never change!“

“Out of all the donut shops around the area, this is by far my favorite place to come. Of course when they get busy it takes a minute longer for my order but overall the best place to relax and enjoy my coffee and donuts. There sandwiches are delicious as well and made to my liking.“

“By far the best glazed donut and cinnamon roll donut I have ever had! And I've had my share of donuts, but hands down the glazed donut was delicious! It was like cake! The texture how soft and spongy the dogh was, no oil flavor at all and it wasn't to sweet it was flavored perfectly!!! If yall haven't been here to try these donuts out, you have been missing out !! I'm going back today to buy some more for the fam!!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great prices, good variety, and friendly service. I got a dozen donuts for around $16, which is a great deal compared to other places. They also had donut holes, long johns, twists, and a nice selection overall.
The person taking my order was very friendly, straightforward, and efficient — made the whole process easy and pleasant. Parking was easy, and the shop wasn’t overcrowded, which I appreciated.
Everything looked fresh, and I’m happy I stopped by. Will definitely come back and recommend this place for affordable, classic donuts.“

“The sandwich is a amazing , customer service friendly the guy smile all the time , even you don’t talk to him he even smile and make you laugh , I used to get smoothie and sandwich and the donut is my most favorite so fresh and warm everyday love this place . If it have 10 star I would give 10 star reviews“

“Quite literally the best place to get doughnuts, when we went 2 years ago he would always give us more doughnuts than we would ask for, yet for a good price (probably because it was near closing time). Today, we went and he was filled with excitement because we haven't seen him FOR 2 YEARS, he gave us a box of donuts as usual, but told us it was free. Christy definitely deserves the five stars💙“
