Donut Star

I could probably go to Linda’s donuts on Riverwalk in Riverside and they have very good recipes and pastry. I decided to try this place because I happen to be in the area and was very disappointed. It wasn’t too late in the day but it tasted like they were from the day before and the apple fritter had so much cinnamon in it that’s all you could taste was the cinnamon. I’m going to stick with Linda’s donuts and if you are in the area you should definitely look them up because they are far and above any other donut place that I have been to before.

Coffee coffee coffee I just need some coffee. And a snack. Parking is easy right in front. The only way to improve it would be a drive throw.

I was hoping to indulge in a hot, fresh glazed donut before heading into work. Something about the overcast day caused a necessity for a quick pick-​me-​up. Donut Star would have to do the trick.
I was surprised with how bright it was inside, and how clean the display case and display racks were. It’s nice to see owner/​operators taking pride in their business.
I wasn’t so impressed with their donuts though. They were neither hot or fresh. But to make matters more interesting, they were nearly twice the size of a regular donut… not in width, but in height. I had to break the donut apart just to create bite-​sized pieces. This isn’t the easiest thing to do with a napkin and its seriously messy. The hardened glaze was cracking all over the table. It seemed like more glaze was on the table than on the donut by the time I was through.
I also ordered a chocolate frosted donut and was met with the same result. Although the chocolate milk I ordered to complete the sugar rush was very good, it wasn’t good enough to salvage this place from receiving a 2-​star rating.
This is a cash-​only establishment, but luckily there is an atm located within the store. Standard charges apply. Total charge for 2 donuts and a small chocolate milk…$ 3.28.
Are donuts supposed to chip…
