I've driven past this place so many times, and I decided to try it out today and my only regret is that I didn't come here sooner! The owner was so nice and there was a good selection of donuts and the biggest croissants I've ever seen in a donut shop, they looked so good, I will definitely get them for breakfast next time. Pricing was great and fair, and the donuts are SO DELICIOUS!! I got the chocolate glaze with sprinkles/cake toppings, mini apple fritter, donut holes and chocolate buttermilk bar (which is now my favorite!!). 10/10, and they serve lunch, so I will also come back for the burgers!!!

Love so much about this place! The old school feel, the super nice owners, and the crispy edges of the fantastic donuts. Can't believe it took me this long to come here, but it is my new happy place.

The donuts here are so fresh and nice. The donut holes are a crowd pleaser and the ham cheese and jalapeno croissants are amazing. One of my favourite breakfasts with a nice cup of coffee. The glazed and the sugar donuts are super soft Don't drive past this place stop and grab a donut and a coffee. You will be happy you did

Amazing donuts made by equally amazing people. The staff here is so friendly and always so happy. You can taste the love these donuts are made with. I try to pick up a box of a dozen donuts for our photo shoots and everyone on set loves them. I always look forward to coming back and getting more.

Really nice people. The product are fresh from the day and they don’t have any waste. Everything is sold in a few hours. So you have to wake up early if you want to buy some good donuts.

I came back to Alameda after 18 years and was surprised to see this shop still here. I came everyday before school for sunflower seeds and donuts. I am 35 and back then, I was 14-17. They weren’t super duper friendly growing up and well that has not changed. At least they’re consistent. They were not mean or rude but it wasn’t a hi how are you with a smile. I wasn’t getting warm service. Just basic. I felt like I needed to hurry and order. The 5 star is for longevity. I did get a donut that I brought back to Virginia to my husband and he seemed to enjoy it. I’m happy they’re still there and hope they continue!!

Wonderful people. Customer service is super friendly, donuts are incredible. Definitely get their custard filled maple bars! This IS a kid friendly establishment. They treat little ones and young adults with kindness and respect. Love bringing my kids here.
