50 Best Donuts near Winnetka

“I've been coming here for the last 4 years and it feels like home. Debbie is literally the most caring person I've ever met and they truly care of their customers. My husband and I come here pretty much every weekend and get sandwiches and iced coffees. The prices are good and the food is delicious. This is a neighborhood staple and you will return!“

“First time here, ordered the ham, egg, and cheese croissant with avocado and it was amazing. And the store had a full house that morning so that told me exactly what I was walking into and I’m happy for that. I will definitely be coming back.“

“This donut shop has a wide variety of bagels, donuts, coffees, tea, cornbread, muffins, croissants, tea cakes and juices.They also prepare their in-house cream cheese that’s quite delicious and tasty.Friendly & helpful staffParking is available in front of the shop.“

“Blinkies is amazing 👏. My favorites are chocolate covered cinnamon rolls with chocolate chips, apple fritters and black and white donuts. Everything is always fresh and the staff are always very nice and kind. Been coming here since 1980s in High school. Thank you special shout out to KC she's so sweet.“

“Very easy menu. Very clean and a good experience overall. Lots of Pikachu there too. I got their 2 donuts that are Vegan. The lemonade is really good. There something sweet and citrus at the bottom.“

“Mike at Mama Donuts decorated our donuts as a turntable for our daughter’s 50th birthday. It was a vinyl record party theme! The donuts were amazing! The decor, the taste. They fit the theme and they were scrumptious. Mike was so great! He was responsive and his customer service was excellent. I highly recommend Mama’s Donuts whenever you want donuts!“

“This spot is seriously one of the hidden gems around. The food is ALWAYS fresh, stacked, and made with care. Look at this sandwich, thick egg, fresh avocado, crisp vegetables, quality bread, everything balanced perfectly. You can tell they don’t cut corners here.

But honestly, the best part is the people. These ladies are some of the kindest workers I’ve met. They actually remember me and my order even if I haven’t been there for weeks, and they always treat me with genuine warmth and respect. That kind of service is rare now. You don’t feel like “just another customer” here.

The shop has that old-school neighborhood feeling where people actually care about their regulars. Great food, great energy, hardworking people, and consistently good service every single time.

If you want a place that deserves support, it’s this one. Much love and respect to the ladies running this shop, you can feel the heart they put into it. 🙏“

“fresh donuts made in house!! can't beat that..“

“Unfortunately for me there are no good donut places where I live, so when I was out visiting the Chatsworth area I was on the lookout for some good donuts.

After a quick search I found that Earl's was just down the street from where I was staying, I decided that today would be a great time to have donuts for dinner!

I wasn't looking for the usual glazed or chocolate dipped donuts, I wanted something a little more fun. I walked in and before me like a vision of heaven I saw a display of the most glorious donuts imaginable. I stepped up to the display and gazed upon the magnificence laid out before me, it was overwhelming!

Fortunately there was a young lady behind the counter that would be my guide, who would help me on this sweet journey.

I wanted them all but with help I was able to whittle my selection down to something my stomach could handle.

I took a seat in their dining area and began my luscious adventure. Each bite was a glimpse of nirvana, I savored every moment. I soon came to the realization that my donut box was now empty, but my stomach was full, and I was happy.

I shall return one day to continue this sweet voyage.“

“I had a taste for some donuts and had seen this place heading home. Well this morning I went over there to check it out. The visit was quick, the service was prompt and the staff was very friendly. There’s not a a lot of room inside, and while you could sit there and eat, you’re probably better off walking out with a box. Also the parking lot is quite small, so maybe there’s 6-7 parking spots.“

“I absolutely love Star Donut! Every visit is a delightful experience. Their donuts are always fresh, soft, and perfectly sweet, with a great variety to choose from. The glazed and maple bars are my personal favorites, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of their options.

Beyond the donuts, the shop offers a nice selection of sandwiches, boba tea, and smoothies—perfect for a quick lunch or snack. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making the atmosphere warm and inviting.

It’s also worth noting that their prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Whether you’re grabbing a quick coffee and donut on the go or sitting down to enjoy your treat, Star Donut is a gem in Reseda. Highly recommend it to anyone in the area!“

“Mochinut consists of a wide array of unique flavors and shapes of donuts. Every time I go, I always get surprised by a flavor I haven’t noticed before. The donuts are soft and flavorful, the corn dog is crispy on the outside and the cheesy is stretchy, and the boba is perfectly sweetened.“

“I discovered this little donut shop earlier this week and I'm so glad I went inside because the owner was so kind and helped me decide what to order as a first time customer. I got the Vietnamese Iced Coffee (which was the perfect combination between creamy, sweet, and strong) and a Ham and Cheese Croissant. I'm usually not the biggest fan of glazed donuts just because they're a little sweet for my taste, but after trying one of their hot, freshly made glazed donuts, I was really impressed with the quality, freshness, and texture (soo fluffy)! I got to work and told all of my coworkers to try out this spot. I definitely need to come back because the quality and heart is there!“

“Always happy to come here. They have a great selection of donuts no matter the time of day and whoever is behind the counter is always happy to help. The quality and pricing is great and makes it hard to want to go anywhere else when the family is craving something sweet. I haven’t tried the breakfast croissants yet but that’s definitely next on the list and the muffins are delicious and fluffy as well without being overly sweet or dense.“

“Literally drive to this location for their Ham, Cheese and Jalapeño croissant. It’s absolutely delicious. Better than ‘Yum Yum’s’ in my opinion. Also the staff is very hospitable and the place is always clean. Great variety of selections to choose from. Must try!!“

“Love me a good powdered lemon jelly donut! Brings me back to my childhood when my mom used to bring us a dozen donuts in the morning and I would run to get the powdered donut before my sister. Donuts are always fresh and delicious - never stale.

Staff is always quick and friendly. You can really tell this donut shop is filled with locals from the community as they would know their regular customers by name.

Great little donut shop and love to support small as often as we can. Will definitely be back!“

“Picked up 4 dozen doughnuts at 6am last week for a special event and not only were the doughnuts delicious and fresh, but the customer service was fantastic. They even brought all of the boxes out for us and put them in the car. Highly recommend this place!“

“Had the best experience coming here for the first time! The young man that helped my family and I was very nice and generous. On top of that, the quality of the chicken sandwich, breakfast burrito, orange juice and the fluffy donuts were top notch.
We’ll definitely be going back for more! 🍩“

“THEE best donuts, not greasy or oily, fluffy, not too sweet, airy. i've been coming here for over 15 years and they have been consistent every time. If I bring anyone a donut from here they ask where they're from! Sweetest couple runs it, very mom and pop classic donut shop. Make the drive if you're not close by, it's so worth it. I almost don't even want to mention their carrot cake because it's the absolute best and it already sells out but get it if you can! Very LAUSD coffee cake adjacent, soooo delicious.“

“Get ready TOMORROW 7/13 is Dulcet Gourmet Donut Day ... Maiden Community let’s show Kip ,Debbie and Mint our love❤️ It’s a family run business run by their families for over 30 years!!!🍩They are located @ the corner of Platt Avenue and Vanowen... please mention that you are from a Maiden Community all week and especially tomorrow ☕️🧃 23717 Vanowen Street“

“classic family-run donut shop that does things the right way. donuts are fresh, soft, and not overly sweet, with that perfect balance you expect from a proper neighborhood spot. you can tell they’re made with care, not mass-produced nonsense.

prices are super affordable, service is genuinely friendly, and the whole place has that old-school local vibe that’s hard to find now.“

“Great donuts , coffee and bobas family owned super nice family ❤️🙏🏻“

“The donuts are delicious & fresh! The owner & staff are soo freindly! They also have a variety of other pastry & fresh squeezed oj! Luv the donut queen shop!“

“My husband and I came in this morning the grab some donuts for our doctors and nurses that we're going to be seeing this morning and also grab the few donuts and some coffee for herself thank you for your hospitality for being warm and welcoming and the delicious donuts so we've already enjoyed this morning“

“I go there almost on the daily to buy a Black Milk tea with soy and boba, outstanding staff and service.“

“I love it here, all the employees are so friendly and kind. I go 1-3 times per week and they always ask how I’m doing, several employees know my order by now. I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place, highly recommend!“

“Fresh Donuts has been our favorite local donut shop for years. The donuts are always fresh (just like the name says!), and we've honestly never had a bad one. Our favorites are the glazed buttermilk, the cronuts, the bow ties, and I can never resist one of the cake donuts.

What really keeps us coming back, though, is the people. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming. They know us by name, ask how my husband is if I come in by myself, and always remember little details about our lives. It's the kind of genuine customer service that's becoming harder and harder to find.

My husband grew up in the Valley and has been coming here since he was a kid, so it's become a special little tradition for us too. If you're looking for a friendly neighborhood donut shop with consistently great donuts, Fresh Donuts is definitely worth a stop. We love supporting this little local gem!“

“The owner was getting ready to close but was kind enough to make me a croissant breakfast sandwich with turkey. It was fabulous! He toasted the croissant 🥐 and the sandwich was still warm when I got home. Reasonably priced and highly recommend! Thank you 👍😊“

“This restaurant is truly impressive!
Their Breakfast Burrito is hearty and made with the freshest ingredients. The eggs, cheese, hash browns, and grilled onions come together perfectly, and you can choose from a variety of meats///ham, turkey, bacon, pastrami, or chicken

all cooked just right, offering a rich and diverse flavor
I especially love that everything is made to order
you can really taste the freshness in every bite. The aroma of eggs and grilled onions is irresistible. And to top it off, the coffee is brewed with a high-end espresso machine, making it smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced.
⭐Highly recommended for anyone who love fresh, customizable meals paired with premium coffee and a satisfying breakfast experience!“

“I didn’t expect a pastry run to turn into a full-on core memory… but this place pulled it off.

The second you walk in, the smell hits you like a warm hug: vanilla, buttery dough, fresh glaze, and just a hint of cinnamon. It’s the kind of aroma that instantly upgrades your mood. The display case is straight-up edible art. Every donut is perfectly golden, beautifully puffed, and somehow manages to be light and indulgent at the same time.

The donuts deserve their own love letter. The glaze is flawless: glossy, delicate, and sweet without being overpowering. The dough is pillowy soft with that perfect slight chew that lets you know it’s made right. And the filled donuts? They actually mean it when they say “filled.” No sad little pocket. No empty promise. It’s generous, balanced, and ridiculously satisfying.

The freshness is unreal. Nothing tastes greasy or heavy or mass-produced. These donuts taste handcrafted, like someone back there genuinely cares about every batch. You can taste the pride in them.

Now let’s talk about the real show-stealer: the croissants. Everyone needs to know the croissants here are absolutely splendid. Flaky in that crisp, shatter-in-the-best-way kind of way, buttery without being greasy, and soft inside with that perfect layered pull. The kind of croissant where one bite makes you pause and go, “Oh… this is the standard now.” If you come here and skip the croissants, you’re missing a top-tier pastry moment.

Customer service was just as impressive. Friendly, patient, and clearly proud of what they make, which only makes the whole experience better.

I’ve had donuts in different cities, at all hours, from all kinds of places, and nothing comes close. This isn’t just a donut shop. It’s an experience, and it will absolutely ruin other donuts for you in the best way.

10/10. I would fight someone over the last glazed. And I’d win with a croissant in my other hand.“

“Been coming here for a few years now and have always been happy. Simple but good selection of doughnuts. I'm partial to their apple fritters, which are huge and heavy, and exactly what you'd hope for. The lady who runs the place is always so nice and she has a great report with all her regulars, myself included. The prices are very reasonable, too, especially for the fresh juice drinks! I like the sandwiches, too. They're what you'd expect at just about any doughnut shop, but they've always treated me right, and I like that you can add avocado or jalapenos if you want. Great little place.“

“Excellent food and friendly staff. This place is the best.“

“I had passed by this spot many times since I moved to the area in November and I finally decided to try it this morning on a walk with my dog. Not only are the people there friendly, but the quality of the food is just fantastic. I ordered a bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a french roll and holy shit. The sandwich itself was huuggeee, the bacon was thick and crunchy, the egg was salted to perfection, the cheese was the right amount of melted and the bread was warm and perfectly toasted. THEY ALSO ADD PICKLES AND CHERRY PEPPERS TO THEM!!! You could tell they put effort into their food. Will definitely be going back to try more items on their menu!!!“

“This is a great donut shop if you're looking for something early in the morning with different options as well. They have a decent amount of smoothies and juice selection. They also have lottery tickets if you play that. I stopped by this morning because I was craving some donuts. I went with the mini donuts and the price was very reasonable.

The lady working this morning was very friendly with me and provided great customer service. The parking lot doesn't have that many spots but if you come at a good time then you might find one.“

“Steve's donuts are some of the best donuts I've had. I got a chocolate glazed and a regular glazed. The donuts were big, very moist with a slight chewy texture which is absolutely phenomenal. These were way better than Dunkin donuts. Can't even compare and the owner threw in a coupe of freebie donut holes as well!. Definitely coming back here for my donuts.“

“My husband and I have been coming to the donut shop ever since we moved to North Hollywood almost 17 years ago we also want to thank the owner's son up for calling the paramedics a little over a month ago when I fell he was very kind and very concerned and stayed with me until the fire department paramedics came to assess my medical situation“

“Amazing donuts and amazing food. Thank you so much. ❤️❤️“

“All the employees are friendly and very welcoming. I got the an onion cream cheese bagel along with a fruity pebbles donut. Everything was good when I opened up my bag for my bagel there was 2 donut holes it was a very nice surprise. Those are the small details that will make me come back“

“I pass this place going to work. I had enough time before my shift. I got a strawberry pineapple smoothie and a pastrami sandwich on a croissant. 10/10. I will be back to try more of their smoothies and sandwiches. I was very satisfied for my first time!“

“fresh pressed juice make daily and kolache“

“i can say so much about tasty’s. their donuts are perfection. i always get exactly what i want! the breakfast sandwiches are soooo tasty!! i usually get the ham, egg, cheese and bacon croissant, and it never disappoints :) HUGE fan of their thai iced tea. im always greeted with a smile and wonderful service no matter who’s working the front! prices are great, especially considering the quality treats you’ll get here. if you have a chance, stop by! it is right on burbank blvd, so depending on the time of day it could be a little loud. it’s never been an issue though! i love tasty’s 🫶“

“Stop In Donuts is exactly what you hope for when you walk into a neighborhood donut shop. The owner has a genuinely friendly, easygoing disposition that makes you feel welcome from the moment you step in.
If you like supporting local, no-frills, family-owned businesses that treat customers like neighbors, this place is worth the stop. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in the area.“

“Visited around noon on a Friday, the service was great, fast and friendly. I was annoying and didn’t know what I wanted so the lady made a box for me. Amazing selection and ones I probably would not have tried. Fluffy and quality frostings making it the best doughnut in simi so far. Danish wasn’t too bad either (not pictured bc I ate it driving home)“

“They have great quality donuts at reasonable prices. The staff is friendly and they have a good selection of tasty yet crispy donuts. They rarely close, even on holidays if you need a donut they are here for you :)“

“This is the best place in the valley, I was a regular here for a couple years I’d say especially the last year before I moved. I had moved and had not been back for 4 months. I came in and started ordering my usual and the owner finished my order for me. And then said long time no see. Service is incredible they are very kind people and I have seen them deal with some very annoying people at times. The donuts are great the number 7 sandwich is amazing and the strawberry banana smoothie with boba is my go
To. Please support them times are hard for business right now and they deserve all
The support.“

“This Denny's is nearby my workplace. They always provide friendly land and timely service. In particular, this Denny's hosted my work place's holiday breakfast and provided abundant food for the employees. We all felt very appreciated. They were timely in their preparation of food for an early morning pick up. I could not be any happier with their service and generosity.“

“This review is for the service. The man who attended us had a warm and welcoming demeanor. He was very friendly. He was patient with my little ones who kept changing their mind on what donut they wanted. Great service and great way to start our day today. Both my kids walked out feeling welcomed.“

“Such a great little shop! Happy to have them in the neighborhood, definitely the best option in the area. Don’t sleep on their mango smoothies or apple fritters.

We ordered donuts for our mother and son game night and EVERYONE loved them. Thank you so much for helping to make our event a success!“
