They Are one of my best donut places of all time.. They usually have what I'm looking for in a donut, keep in mind, after like 6 or 7, they tend to run low on choice donuts since they close at 10 pm. All the other Mom and Pops places close at 3 or 5 pm. With thee exception of Yum Yum which we're not talking about them. Lol! With either a glass of milk, cocoa, and or coffee. They hit the spot .

Chocolate frosting was definitely chocolatey.Get your donuts here guys. I drove from Tarzana to Glendale for these donuts. Worth it.“

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.“

“Foster’s donuts has a large selection of donuts and pastries. The store is clean, open 24 hours and accepts credit cards with $10 minimum order. We ordered the Apple Fritter, which was delicious. We were asked if we liked our fritter more crispy or regular, which was a nice option. The prices were a bit high, but as many say, you’re paying for quality. The transaction with the sales staff was efficient. Overall it was a positive experience.

Parking: Parking lot.“
