Ming’s Donuts

Was craving donut after a trip to the hospital so decided to stop by. We arrived at about 10:45am and the donut selection was quite limited. The maple bar and chocolate bar we ordered were generously filled and delicious. I’d say 4 stars for the quality of the donut and 3 stars for the selection (based on what I saw). I will definitely give this place a try again when I can make it there in the early morning.

Small independent family own donut shop Mings donut. Mings donut made famous by Unilocaler Eugene, I always see him come by to get a chocolate donut on his Unilocal reviews. Today I just stop by and want to see what this famous chocolate donut was all about.
I got the five of my fav. donut in the whole entire world
1. Cinnamon roll: $ 1.79 size of a miniature basketball fluffy and delicious, lack of cinnamon goodness overall C
2. Maple bar: $ 1.79 size avg, super super soft Donut texture with a maple glaze on top pretty big tasty B+

3. Glaze rise donut: .95 cent just like the maple bar super Duper soft donut texture believe they use the same batter for all the donuts good and soft l B+
4. Chocolate rise donut (Eugene special) .95 cent: out of all the other three don’t have I took in but up so far but chocolate donut has the best Texter not a sugary as the other three and yes they use a real chocolate not that fake crap, yes I can have this every Morning! A
5. Plain cake donut: Free The lady in the back of the counter I guess like me on my wonderful smile she gave me a free donut! hell yeah! Free donut !! A++!!
OK after by taken a bite of each other donut now I’m in a super sugar rush high overall Ming down at great place to be. Eugene right chocolate donut best thing ever!

My sister and I have been craving for donuts lately and have been hitting up every donut shop we could find. This one was located off Doolittle Dr. and right next to Sang Chong Supermarket so there’s plenty of parking spaces available. We have constantly drove past this donut shop all the time and they almost always look super busy.
When we came in it was about 9:30am and there were almost no donuts left! Not sure if they don’t make large batches or if everyone swooped in during the wee hours of the A.M. and cleared out all the donuts?! They didn’t even have regular glaze which is my favorite :(.
My sister and I settled for what was left which was a plain old fashioned donut, a blueberry cake donut, and a chocolate cake donut. My sister said the blueberry cake donut was bomb, not sure if they have it every day though. The chocolate cake donut was pretty good too, it was soft and fluffy, but the chocolate was not as sweet as I liked.
I also liked how this place sells little milk bottles. You CAN’T have dessert without milk!!! I’ve been to lots of cupcake/​dessert places and complained because I wish I had milk to go with it, lol.
Overall I’d probably check this place out again. I’d have to come in super early though.

I overheard the nurses at Kaiser talking about this donut shop so I had to check it out. I’ve had blueberry donuts before and was hoping to snag some but they were already sold out, then again, I stopped in at 9:30am which is late.
I ended up getting a glazed donut, glazed cruller, and an apple fritter. Definitely nice quality donuts, tasted fresh, and not heavy or bready. Nice people that work there too!
Overall, just based on this one visit, I’m a fan and will definitely hit up Ming’s at least once a week, maybe more once I get a hold of a blueberry donut!

Ming’s Donuts is my absolute favorite donut shop in the Bay Area. The donuts are always fresh. I especially like the bear claws & apple fritters because they make them correctly on a consistent basis; other places can’t seem to get the recipe right and either make them too doughy or overcook them. The blueberry donut is another favorite. The flavor is rich and the donut is soft; it’s almost like a small cake. Also, the people are very friendly and the customer service is excellent.

This place has delicious donuts the only problem is wish the ham in the ham and cheese croosant would stop getting stuck on the corner of the croosant would be nice if it was spread out in the whole crossant, but other than that all the donuts are fresh made daily you can tell, the reason I did not give it five stars is because I feel sum crappy service from the Asian lady with shorter hair .she trows your donut on the table like she is mad working there and don’t want to be there at all, she needs to go and keep the nicer Asian lady, if the hire sum hotter service this place would be full everyday

I love this place. Working in the ER makes you crave for donuts. I love it that it’s fresh. There ham n cheese crossiant us the bomb. Plus there blueberry donut too!

Donuts were great and inexpensive! We added milk to our order and it was nice and cold! I liked it:)

Ming’s Donuts is a favorite and local donut shop in San Leandro that I count on for all my donut needs (early mornings, or afternoons). They’re always opened and have the greatest selection of fresh donuts on display and are the sweetest family owned donut shop in the area.
No matter what time I come in, they’re always ready to give me at least a house dozen of donuts for my favorite starbucks baristas or picking up some goodies to impress my coworkers with. I’ve had a variety of everything, and nothing ever taste bad.
Their hours are impressive, as is their customers service. There is a huge donut selection every day with your classic glazed, to your sprinkles and their house specialty. Every now and then, they’ll throw in an extra donut or some donut holes with your order and it’s awesome. Come early if you want their special Ming’s blueberry donut or cronut (almost never there after 10am).
They take both credit card and cash, but as a small local business, I encourage you all to use cash. The inside is super clean and everybody is friendly. They remember local faces and there is always a smile.

You know Ming’s is the best when six people in front of you in line order a combined 14 dozen! And guess what? They still appreciate my small order of a few donuts and a coffee. All flavors are phenomenal, take it from someone who’s tried each one. The owners are a joyful bunch who care deeply about their business and it shows! I’m always greeted politely with a smile even when I roll through at 4 am. If you are up for an addictive, divine treat then head to Ming’s, it’s the best donut shop in the bay area hands down. Watch out Colonial, Ming’s rivals all contenders!

Make sure you call the shop before you go. Wasted my time and gas one Saturday morning, when I see that the store was closed with a sign on the door «Sold out of doughnuts». If you run out of product, you make more. Simple as that. Never coming back here again.

Origional glazed Donuts are always a must for me at every Donut Place but the Original Glazed here is the True Delicious image of a real Fluffy and fresh donut from your local hub. This goes to all donuts in fact, Freshly made early morning (u can see thwm making it from outside). Cinnamon Twists, crunchy and taffy in middle, delicious tho. Blueberry Donut, like stwpping into blueberry heaven, perfect coffee bread. …
Coffee. Hot chocolate. Milk. Or Apple juice.
Here now often, as u can twll. Lol

Congrats ming, you earned my first review FOR YOUR DISHONESTY!
The dishonest woman at the counter quoted $ 9.80 for a dozen of the cheaper donuts… said she would give me a deal
Not much of a selection left after 10 am, but i did decide to pick out a dozen
Went home and looked at the receipt… it read $ 11
Maybe it was because I used a credit card… well let the customer know!!!
For stealing $ 1.20 from me… this place gets one shitty star
Almost forgot my manners, thanks ming for the deal!

Worked night shift the other day and decided to stop by to snag some blueberry donuts and an apple fritter before they were all gone. Now I know it’s not good for your health to eat sweets right before bed, but I couldn’t resist after taking that first bite. Two words: blueberry goodness. I managed to resist the other 5 donuts since I was saving them for family and friends and spared the fritter until the next day’s lunch though. BTW, it’s HUGE… Almost made my lunch burrito look like a side dish instead of the actual entrée. Oh and did I mention the price was only about $ 6 total? Definitely going to be back.

Omg! Blueberry doughnuts sooooo good!!! The first time I had blueberry doughnuts was in SoCal. I was really craving some. So I turned to my trusty Unilocal App! (:
I came here on a Friday at 10:15am. Lucky for me there was two blueberry left! I bought them all plus a maple bar. No, I did not eat this all by myself lol. But I probably could. LOL they are just thaaaat good!
Blueberry-​Soooooo delicious packed with blueberry flavor. The batter is so good. It is lightly glazed. Not overly sweet, which I love!
Maple bar-​This was also really good! I can’t stress enough that their batter is so light and perfect.
The doughnuts aren’t heavy which is awesome. You don’t feel like crap after you eat it. The lady that helped us out was super nice. Great place to grab doughnuts. I will definitely come back & try the other ones!

After seeing Eugene L.‘s many check in’s here, I finally came by last weekend in hopes of trying their blueberry donut. Unfortunately I didn’t realize that they close at 1PM on weekends which meant that it was all sold out of blueberry by 11. So I ordered a glaze which was pretty good, denser and larger than a Krispy Kreme but lighter than most old fashion donuts so a good middle ground.
So second time is a charm when we went back at 10 yesterday and bought 3 out of the remaining 5 blueberry donuts. My dad is a big blueberry fan and really enjoyed it. However, I am withholding where I got it from since he’s not great on moderation and would probably eat half a dozen in one sitting. Great to know that I can pick up donuts closer by without having to go to Krispy Kreme but need to control myself before it becomes an addiction.
It is located in the Marina Faire Plaza or if you’re not great with names, the strip mall with the big New Sang Chong Asian Market.

Amazing donuts! Always fresh. Light, airy, and not greasy like a lot of places. Never had anything bad here. 9.80 for a dozen. Worth it!

Really great donuts.
I have been coming here since I can remember. The donuts are made fresh everyday and the people here are so nice. If you wake up early enough, or stay up very very late like me, come here at like 5 AM for the best donut holes ever. They melt in yo’ mouth! It may have been 5 in the morning and I didn’t sleep yet, but I know I was not imagining the deliciousness that was the donut holes. If you can’t make it that early, make sure to get here somewhat early as all the donut holes will sell out. All their donuts are really good though. The donuts are light and fluffy without being too oily or over frosted. Basically, Donuts GOOD. Come and get one… or 12, I don’t judge.

Ming’s Donuts is a small place that has good business and good donuts. The blueberry doughnut is tasty as is there ham and cheese croissant.
The service was full of smiles and quick.
The place has an older feeling like it was built in the early 80s as the seats are small.

So this has been my morning stop the last couple of weeks.
Ming’s is always clean and there is usually no waiting.
Another plus is they always seem to have enough donuts, unlike so many other shops that seem to run out by nine or even earlier.
I’ve been indulging in a morning ham and cheese croissant which they warm up really quick and by the time I get to work and open up the bag of goodness its still hot and delicious.
I have also tried their cinnamon rolls which are decent, their donut holes which I actually find to be to big because I always end up with sugar all over. I actually think I still have a piece in my keyboard from the other morning but I’m not sure.
Everything that I have tried from Ming’s has been fresh and tasty and their prices are low compared to some competitors around the block, and the ladies that run the place are always friendly.
