50 Best Donuts near South Pasadena

“I like how these donuts when you eat them they it has very minimal grease saturation and and the toppings don’t fall on you while you’re eating them. It’s like a taste of pure heaven thank you very much to all the workers that take the time to do the jobs the right way and customer service is phenomenal“

“First time here, young lady cashier Taylor was extremely patient and helpful. I went up to the register and then my son became indecisive and Taylor just made the situation calm and easy by being patient and helpful. I know I probably would’ve been a little impatient but she was just so kind and professional. Thanks for the great experience Taylor. Will definitely return when in the area again!“

“Great costumer service and very friendly staff.“

“Visited here today from Pittsburgh, PA and these are, without a doubt, the best donuts I’ve ever tasted in my life (I’ve tasted a lot 🤣😝). I don’t usually review places but that’s how amazing these are….“

“Absolutely in love with this place. Gigi and her mom have built something special here. The BEST gluten free donuts I have ever had. I’ve been gluten free for five years and have been consistently disappointed with crumbly, dry donuts. Not anymore. This place has changed the game. Their donuts are perfectly moist and amazingly flavorful. I am beaming after visiting this place. Easily my new favorite spot and I will definitely be coming back. Impeccable vibes from the super chill baristas.“

“So yum!! My partner and I bought a range of donuts and they were all amazing! By far the best donuts we have ever had. Very reasonably priced aswell. The cinnamon roll donut was a standout. So soft and fluffy and the flavour is perfect. We got seconds for the way home 😍“

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

“很美味的甜品，美食虽好可不要贪多呀“

“First time having vegan donuts and Andres was super patience and welcoming. I recommend the rites of sprinkles, the jelly sound, and the promise ring. They were all delicious. I also had a cold brew with oat milk that was refreshing.“

“I'm not from here but this morning I had a really yummy omelet and the donuts are so good the people that work there are very hospitable and friendly thank you“

“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!“

“a late night beacon , fosters donuts is an oasis . i decided to go for a drive , nevermind it was 11 pm . up the 2 til it ended is where i ended up not sure how its just as it was . with out any other cars on the road it was easy to decide to take a look around this lil highway end town . glad i did because it was the lights i spotted first , lit up and sparkling , fosters donuts . i saw a few groups of people in the window which is always a good sign , a trusted establishment. once inside i immediately noticed that the cases were relatively bare except for say the random cinnamon roll or a few twists . luckily i noticed the racks in the back , full of fresh donuts ! i asked for one of the nearest ones , a cake donut . divine ! crispy outside soft warm inside , pleasantly spongy and very cakey . ive been to three weddings this summer and none of the cakes were as good as this . one of the best $1.80s ive spent this week . as LA slumbers fosters makes magic . i will be back very soon !“

“Jenny and Lee make amazing food and they’re just the kindest people. I discovered their breakfast sandwiches during my pregnancy and that’s all I wanted to eat! My husband loves them too so it’s a win-win. Every time we have guests stay with us, we make a visit for croissants and donuts.“

“Love this gems from walking in , friendly service and quality. Jalapeño bagel was yummy and my latte was perfect . I forgot to ask to make it less sweet, but it was perfect like I want it too.“

“Alright, this might be the best donut shop anywhere around this part of town. It’s family owned and operated, no hipster shit just OGs with a classic and good shop. The donuts are really good in my opinion but the apple fritter is to die for.. so bomb. They have a big refrigerator with basically every drink you can think of and even in the middle of summer all of the drinks are super cold, an underrated detail missed by most businesses owners. Stop by after a work out or bike ride and get an apple fritter and a cold can of coke, you won’t be disappointed.“

“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.“

“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!👍“

“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 !!“

“Love this place! :)“

“great donuts! great service!“

“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!¡ 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩“

“Absolutely wonderful experience. The food here is magnificent. The team that works here is spectacular. They’re good kind God loving people come and get your bagel here. Come and get your bagel heel. Do you want a bagel? Get a bagel come to Mr. good and get a bagel it’s the best bagel you’ve ever had Miss. It’s so good.“

“This donut shop has good reviews, so I went to check it out. They have a large selection of donuts, pastries, muffins, breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, fresh juices, and lotto tickets. The donuts were tasty as was the breakfast sandwich I ordered. This is definitely worth going to if you're in the area.“

“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“

“A coworker told me about this place for good priced breakfast sandwiches, and this is genuinely my new favorite donut/sandwich place. The man who works there is so kind and helpful. He knows exactly which donut I point at and will let me know the name for next time.

The tuna fish sandwich is so good! I’m extremely picky (it’s hard finding a good tuna fish) and this sandwich is everything. The smack it on a homemade croissant and I always add spouts, which he immediately said yes to when I asked.

I can’t not talk about their donuts however. They’re delicious!!!! Their bear claw is filled with cinnamon and apple filling, and when I say their glazed is extremely similar to Kristy Kremes, I mean, it’s spot-on but better. They’re lighter and fluffier.

I seriously love this place, the kindness of the workers/owner, and the food for the price is unbeatable. My new favorite place to stop for a quick lunch!!“

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

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

“I love this place pillowy doughnuts fresh soft best doughnuts I’ve been coming here since I was a little kid girl with my with my grandma now at 48yrs old I drive to El Monte to have my coffee n doughnuts n I bring my friends here polite. Family owned I will always support n bring my money here“

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

“Great place to get a chicken sandwich, my favorite number 14, delicious 1st class chicken breast, 1st class bread, and all ingredients. Add avocado and is way better and affordable than any Subway or Jersey Mike's. Also great bagels. Can't speak for donuts cuz don't eat donuts.“

“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 ...“

“Very fresh and great looking donuts!“

“Everything about this place is amazing—I’ve tried boba drinks, sandwhiches, donuts, coffees, and juices (probably more stuff too i just dont remember), and all were SOOO tasty 😋 I would come here quite often after school to pick up a thai tea boba and a warmed up croissaint: OMG the croissaint is buttery and has a very nice cheese-like pull to it when you bite into it 🤤🤤 And the donuts are amazing as well 😄 they’re soft and are never too sweet 😌 Also they do cash and apple pay but I think they charge you $1.00 or less (i dont remember 😅) to use apple pay.“

“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!“

“Fantastic donuts did such an amazing job with our daughter‘s bday order!! Every single donut was decorated with such incredible detail and so much love, everyone at the party was blown away- especially our little birthday girl! And did I mention yet how delicious they were!? WOW!! Thanks so much, from our family to yours!!“

“Prices have gone up from when I 1st started going with my GF. I remember my GF and I would go specifically for her bobas but they are now 6$ I remember literally a year ago they were 4.75$ the doughnuts are just ok. You can tell when they are yesterdays or even the day before. They crumble apart. Besides that we did find that going to winchells Doughnuts was much less expensive and better.“

“It's 3AM and you want some donuts, a sandwich, or whatever kind of comfort.... this place has got you.

On our way home from some degeneracy and I got a jalapeno ham cheese croissant and some donuts. It was hot and fresh out the kitchen and straight into my mouth I could barely contain myself on the drive home.

Now it's nothing special and but given the context this was the best thing to end that night (morning?) with.

“Que Delicia! Todo Fresco! Y Vegano <3“

“Their glazed donuts are nothing short of perfection-- a delicate balance of sweetness and texture that melts in your mouth with every bite. The sugar twists on the other hand... is delightful, soft, fluffy, and each bite is a heavenly experience that leaves you craving for more. In a world filled with tons of donut shops, this place stands out as a beacon of quality, creativity, and passion. The staff here are also friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready with a smile. Do yourself a favor and pay them a visit, your taste buds will thank you!“

“Really good croissant. I drive all over la and ie and this is one of the best croissant I've had in a while . Mine you I drive from San Diego to Oxnard daily sometime . Very good . Price was good too 1 chocolate bar and 1 ham and cheese croissant $6 total on Saturday morning.only thing was lady said it was warm but I needer her to micro wave it back up warm tp eat it good overall 5 star place“

“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!“

“Man oh man how can I explain the flavor kick in these heavenly donuts. Let me just say these are the best donuts in all of man kind. Le glaze donut tasted like the sweetest vanilla glaze ever. So pillowy and soft i demolished the whole thing in like 40 seconds. If you’re in the bell area you must try these delicious donuts.“

“I am almost a regular customer of them. Their coffee is good enough.. I tried donuts 2-3 times but normally I am not a fan of Donuts.

I wish to them_ they will ensure their Customer Service. Specifically on Communication. Specifically_In the morning.[Talking about the Lady’s two girl.] The Lady is good-who I see every time.

Good Luck.🌺“

“We love to stop in the morning around 10:00 their donuts are very moist I've gone in the evening and their donuts are not that fresh so the best time for you to stop by isn't the morning ?

Kid-friendliness: Very friendly employees are very helpful“

“The donuts here are the BOMB. There is nothing fancy about them, they have all the usual ones a donut place should have like glazed, twists, devilsfood etc. But these donuts are delicious. They are perfectly sweet with a perfect consistency. I could eat a whole box! The only thing that I'm not happy about is that their prices have gotten kind of expensive. I also used to get a discount when I ordered a dozen or more, but now it's close to $20 bucks. I used to get a dozen+ every weekend, but now I'll maybe get one dozen a month or just stop in and just get a couple of chocolate glazed. I don't know if it's just inflation or if they have changed management or owners. Overall, if you want a GOOD donut, you need to goto this place. I recommend the chocolate glazed they taste like heven.“

“We found this place while driving around LA on a trip. As fans of Trejo, we had to stop. Being from the East Coast and not being fans of the typical strong-tasting dark roasts served at West Coast coffee shops, we didn't expect to love the coffee! We ended up stopping in 3 mornings over our 6 nights in LA because those donuts and the medium roast drip coffee are THAT good! On our first visit, a tray of red velvet donuts came out as we were ordering. OMG, one of the best donuts we'd ever had! Definitely stop by. As fun as it was to take pictures of the decor and Trejo's face on everything, their products are damn delicious!“

“Delicious - simple and straight to the point classic donuts. We got the buttermilk, glazed twist, and apple fritter. Hit the spot. Iced coffee is a delicious sugar bomb - sweet tooth is needed. We will be back to try the breakfast sandwiches and thai iced tea.“
