“I’m in LOVE with these donuts!!! Not to mention how sweet they are in there!!! So nice, incredible donuts that are BETTER than the “other” big donut place out here.... Sorry Cali, Crafted is the place!!!!“

“Holey Grail Donuts is a stylish shop located on Main St in Santa Monica.
Having tried my fair share of donuts, I can say that Holey Grail Donuts is truly exceptional. Made with Hawaiian taro root and fried to order in coconut oil, their donuts are a flavor explosion. With creative and seasonal fillings, this shop is a must-visit for donut lovers. The unique flavor combinations are particularly impressive.
I tried the Taro Donuts and was instantly hooked. If you're tired of the same old donuts, Holey Grail Donuts is a game-changer that you need to try!“

“The best! Worth every penny.“

“The selection is off the charts! 📊 open 24 seven and the #21 is to absolutely die for! 😈 can’t wait to try the rest of their stuff!!!!!! Thanks“

“would definitely go here again!!! doughnuts were so delecious!!!“

“Somehow I had never tried this place until about a month ago through Uber eats when I was craving an Apple fritter. Have ordered a few times since and think I’ve found my favorite donut/breakfast sandwich place in LA. Everything is always super fresh even if I order at 3 in the afternoon. The fritter is huge and might be the best I’ve ever had. Bagel breakfast sandwiches are perfect as are the other donuts I’ve had. So happy places like this still exist!!!“

“Great quality donuts the building is magical the people are graceful and sincere they work hard and are very kind call out to them at the front desk if no one is there, God bless. Been going here since high-school lov the sandwichs better than McDonald's.“

“These were literally the best donuts and coffee I’ve ever put in my mouth. In addition, the Cambodian employee was beyond friendly and helpful; he even threw in a free donut :). I would recommend 100%. For reference: this is the first review I’ve ever given; it was THAT good.“

“A simple, family-run donut shop that I have been coming to for my entire life. The staff treats you like family, and the donuts are the best in Los Angeles. The Maple Bar, Apple Fritter, and cinnamon roll are stand outs.

To me, this is benchmark I compare all in the city to, and when compared to Miss Donuts, pretty much all fall short. Don't sleep on this hidden gem.“

“best doughnuts in my life“

“When I was introduces this place with my best friend The Owner, Niko Who also works there as well as a hard-working person very friendly, always goes up and beyond to make sure the customers are smiling and happy. His customer service is amazing and his donuts are yummy but along with his croissants, his coffee and his chai tea iced my best friend and I always make sure that we get there at least once a week if not every day of the week, keep up the great work.NIKO We’ll see you soon. ♥️??????“

“Omg, I come home from working nightshift in Santa Monica. I've had some stupid expensive donuts from super fluffed up donut places.This place doesn't disappoint at all.I absolutely love the quality, taste, selections, and price. I am a huge fan of Christy's. My favorites are the raspberry jelly donuts and apple fritters.I'll be bye very soon for my weekly dose of donuts goodness.“

“Love this place. Donuts & breakfast sandwiches are bombbb! They also got good people working here, I left my CC in the morning, didn’t realize it till the next day, called and they said they found it on the table and would be happy to keep it safe until the next week when I was back in the town. Faith in humanity restored!“

“Just went for the first time ever and got doughnut balls for only 2.50$ the quality and quantity were insanely great the man and woman behind the counter were so nice and the place was very clean if you want some tasty treats this is the place you need.“

“The pastries are very delicious. The donuts are very very good. The atmosphere is very classic and the customer service you cannot beat every time I come in they have a smile on their face and they are very attentive. Their suggestions are very good as well.

Parking: Parking is located right in front of the store quick and easy access in and out the door“

“Almost too hip of an atmosphere. Looks futuristic and like a hipster puked all over it but it’s still cute. I miss the old schnackenbergs! This place looks odd in old cute charming uptown Hoboken. It’s very Portland-esque. Good salad tho.“

“There are KFC, Dunkin Donuts, and Taco Bell across the street, but when I was traveling and wanted to go to a place I couldn't eat in Korea, I came across this place that was clearly visible on Google Maps.
They are as friendly as usual and the bread is delicious.
The glaze is done properly.
The roast beef sandwich was a little too salty for my taste, but this is America!

It's very delicious.“

“Good donuts and friendly staff, but they need to be better prepared according to the demand. I have been there around 9am and they had no donuts anymore. What kind of place runs out of donuts so early? And a bunch of people came in after me. They are loosing money.“

“Good service n great food“

“Doughnuts are top notch but very pricey. $4 and up for an artisan doughnut is way too much.“

“A very nice place to buy donuts and lottery tickets. The donuts are always fresh. A very friendly staff and i have won hundreds buying their lottery tickets and i hope you never ever go away. I absolutely love that place“

“A landmark and also a delicious spot to get donuts , there is a reason why there been serving the best for the last 70 years!! Come take a picture and also enjoy a donut at Randy’s .“

“My favorite donut spot in the Hyde Park area very good been here for years they have the nice cool smoothie healthy Shake especially if you're on a diet it's just that husband he's something else sometimes he a little weird but you just got to overlook him and the donuts they are pretty cool especially if you got to take them to your job on one of your good days?“

“I got an iced coffee and a singlr donut. Total was $7.75. Seems a little ridiculous on price if you ask me.

The coffee was an espresso shot mixed with syrup and milk. If you wanted it sweetened with syrup or any flavor, it was an additional 25 cents. Basically, it's a latte when I just wanted a simple iced coffee.

The donut, on the other hand, was pretty good. They asked if I wanted it warmed up, and I said no....however, they proceeded to warm it up because one of the ladies in back said they had to warm it up to make it taste better.... so that tells me it must be pretty bad when it's room temp? Overkill on the service, especially when it wasn't necessary.

The location is a little rough... tight parking and hard to access when theres a lot of traffic. I'd go back to try other donuts.“

“Went here for donuts one morning with the family and thought it was so good that we went again the next morning during our trip to L.A. the donuts were fresh and tasted great even the day after. The staff was very friendly and accommodating as well. I give it excellent marks.“

“I randomly came here while doing Uber rides around Ucla at 3 o’clock in the morning not expecting much. Oh, how wrong I was. my first bite into the bagel Breakfast sandwich set my taste buds flying. It’s the perfect amount of each individual ingredient, but nothing overpowers each other in the ingredients. I was blown away honestly. Will be coming here for now on whenever I’m in the neighborhood. Bravo to the owner :-)“

“Ive been going here for years with my bf to this donut shop. I love the food here it’s so delicious! and customers service is amazing! I feel like I grew up with the business and to see it blossom and get even more better overtime is blessing! It’s an awesome local spot and I’m so happy seeing the business booming more customers! They deserve the recommendations! Get the #7 crossiant sandwich and Thank me later! Donuts here are honestly the best in town! Yup better than Krispy Kreme and Randy’s!“

“Warm donuts and delicious food here, love the hot dogs and coffee - I can come here almost every day to get my fix! I love their warm atmosphere and a mom and pop-shop feel. Their wall of lottery scratchers also makes me tempted to try my luck.“

“Good place and good service“

“The donuts so fresh and hum and cheese good service“

“we get donuts pretty often at my work, and the donuts i get from jolly donuts seem to be everybody's favorite. that said the donuts are more expensive than other similar mom and pop donut shops, its easy to spend more than you anticipated.“

“The donut shop is top-notch with 5-star everything – clean and tasty food, refreshing Strawberry Banana and Mango smoothies, great iced coffee, and a killer croissant sandwich. The staff is super friendly, adding to the cozy vibe. It's just a really nice spot for a treat. Definitely worth checking out! ??“

“Best baked choco 🍩 .. mmm“

“Donut King is a doughnut and sandwich shop located on Venice Blvd. i ordered the vampire and super green drinks. They were both made fresh and very tasty. They have a large selection of sandwiches on bagels, croissants and French bread. It is very reasonably priced and i will definitely go back to try it. The lady working there was very nice and gave me a bag to hold the drinks.“

“This is my favorite donut shop!! I love the owner!! She's so sweet!! I used to pick up donuts for my boys when they were little...and shape them into numbers according to their birthday! They are always fresh! This is a family-owned business and the owner and the son are super nice and super amazing! I will always purchase Donuts from this shop whether I'm near or far. Whether it's for a birthday or just a craving! Their donuts are awesome! The glazed donut, the chocolate donut, even the donut holes and everything in between are great! And you can't beat the price! I will take these Donuts any day before I will drive to any famous donut shop! Support local businesses!!“

“I used to buy donuts here when I lived in LA, and it was like for more than thirty years. It has not changed a bit. The donuts are huge, delicious, and at a darn good price. The area is still sketchy and grimy, but I would still buy donuts from here when come back and visit family.“

“Love this place! Very nice and humble people work here. Always busy but they seem to get everyone in and out quickly. I work grave yard shift so this is always my stop to get my wife some breakfast and coffee before getting home. Highly recommend.“

“Besides Mom's Donuts on Inglewood and marine, these are the best and most fresh donuts you can get in a 30 mile radius. These donuts are heavenly, moist, melts in your mouth, and warm. Just overall fu#@$& yummy! You will never regret coming here, the food is always on point. BTW, cash only, but there is an ATM is inside. Enjoy!“

“This is the donut shop of my childhood and I was in the neighborhood so stopped by for the first time in decades. It was a little past 10 and they were nearly sold out of donuts... a testament to their deliciousness. I still managed to get 4 for my family. My only regret was not also ordering a ham and cheese croissant, another childhood favorite.They accept cash and credit card and service is fast and friendly. I don't know if the current owners are rated to the owners from over 20 years ago, but they're just as nice.“

“Very nice local location that is off of a busy street but they do have free parking. Brought my kids here and they really liked how the sandwiches are cooked in real time with fresh ingredients and the smoothies were also fresh ingredients. Not a lot of room to sit. But food is good enough.

Parking: Parking is available but it is very small so you’ll need to consider street parking as well

Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly with yummy options for them“

“Love the Donuts prices are fair ,Cash only there is a ATM on site, love the ham and cheese summer days I come to get some ice cream. The store is good clean renovated not so long ago small details but seems great, they serve fresh donuts here , They even have a sale on day old donuts for those those that don't mind and looking for a bargain.“

“As someone from the east coast I always have to get doughnuts when I come out west, and Randy’s reaffirmed why. The raised doughnuts especially are spectacular. The flavors are good but the texture and bite is outstanding. No way to go wrong no matter what you buy though, everything was excellent.“

“The store personnel were very nice and welcoming. They always make us feel good and very friendly environment. I also deliver and pick up food for Grubhub and never encounter any issues with the store. I really appreciate all the assistance you offered us and I became one of your customer buying hot chocolate and donuts. This place is highly recommendable for an excellent service. Thank you and keep that smile on you. Be happy always.“

“My second time at this donut shop and both times my experience was great. I was kind of skeptical of getting donuts around 5pm because I thought they would not be fresh but they were fresh. This will be my go to donut shop when my daughter wants donuts in the pink box lol. The customer service was great and the lady gave me donut holes that I didn't ask for. I recommend this place for donuts.“

“UPDATE 4/8/23
I started going here again. Customer service has greatly improved! The donuts are really good and they have crullers!! ❤️ I also got a cronut which was delicious. My cat was fighting me for it! 😂 Changing my review from a 1 star to a 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This place has the best crullers! Adjusting my review on 3/15/22. I went there Friday 3/11/22 at 8:30pm. They are open 24 hours a day. I walked in and no one was around out front. I wait a few minutes and call out for someone. I can hear them in the back room. I tried yelling to them for 10 minutes and they would not come out so I left. When I got in my car I called there to let them know they lost a customer. They wouldn't even pick up the phone. Very disappointing.“

“Winchell's Donuts and Coffee Shop never disappoints! This was my second visit, and once again, the donuts were delicious and consistent in quality. It's the perfect spot for a quick breakfast sandwich or a sweet treat on the go. With everything you'd expect from a small donut and coffee shop, Winchell's is a reliable choice for satisfying your cravings any time of day.“

“Been going here for a long time and I love Johnny’s and he’s super nice all the time. I’ve never had a bad experience personally and hope you give it a try. Plus he’s open like almost all the time too so he’s super convenient to add on top of everything“

“My first time!! It was a good experience. Told the owner it was my first and he gave me a free glazed donut. They just made me a loyal customer. The donuts were soft and decadent. And they make a really good açai bowl. It just took a while to make. But overall very good. I ordered the funnel cake, peach cobbler, pb&j, and maple bacon bar fancy donuts. They were all really delicious.“

“Best donuts around! Way better than R___'s! Got mine early... about 4:30 am, and they were soft, sweet, but not over-sweet, just-right sweet. Ordered the blueberry and was full of filling. Lucky's is real close to the airport. Best time for donuts is early morning 🌄“
