Choony’s Donuts & Bagels

I love coming to this spot for breakfast! I started driving a different way to work and I need my bagel every morning. This place is quick and has a variety of bagels. The customer service is great the lady remembered my face and knows what I want when I come in. Their ham & cheese croissants are yummy too and they don’t skimp you on ham & cheese like some places. No complaints here :)

Choony’s Donuts & Bagels is the best donut shop in the city of Sylmar! If you are looking for a quick breakfast on the way to work or school, this is the place to be.
Choony’s Donuts & Bagels is a small sit down shop that is very quiet. They have a few tables so you can sit down and enjoy the delicious food they prepare. If you go early morning their is not that many other clients so you are able to get your food quick.
Many of the employees are welcoming and give you their full attention.
They have a lot of different varieties of breakfast food you can pick from. They have breakfast bagels, donuts, croissants, muffins, and deli sandwiches for the afternoon. They also have coffee, iced coffee, lattes, etc. Choony’s even offers boba. Their pricing is very reasonable and fair because of how big the food is. I would suggest if you are in the area, try the croissants because they taste AMAZING! They have the perfect sweetness that just tingles you taste buds. They are even better when they are freshly made and warm. These croissants melt in your mouth! I also suggest trying one of the croissants that are filled with either strawberry, blueberry, or crème cheese! They are very delicious and are addictive.
The location for this donut shop is horrible because it is in a corner plaza that gets busy during the afternoon. There is hardly any parking and it is such a hassle to find a parking spot because the parking lot is very small. Another thing that I dislike about about this donut shop is they only accept cash. It is a pain because whenever I am in a rush to school and have no cash, I have to use the ATM that they have in the shop and it cost extra to take out money.
Overall, I love Choony’s! This is the best donut shop in the city.

This place is great! Clean and bright on an otherwise dirty street. Donuts, bagels and sandwiches along with tasty coffee. Everything we had was fresh and service was excellent.

Not a big selection, got there at 9 and not much left. Plus when I ask for something they was out so when I asked what kind another worker blurts out here is menu. Menu is great if you have all the items. Plus only take cash.

This place doesn’t accept cash and there aren’t any signs posted. Get up with the times, people. Just ok selection. Out of a few items. Staff is nice. He gave me a free donut because I had to use the ATM machine.

Quick review.
Bagels– pretty darn good. Better than the chain bagel shops. Chewy on the inside. That’s a good thing. Downside? Not much variety.
Donuts– taste strange. Probably whatever they are using to fry them in. They look good, but do not be deceived.
Other reviews say things like «best donuts.» Um. Use Unilocal.Find other places that have high ratings and MANY reviews by people who have written MANY reviews… not just places that have reviews posted by people who have ONLY posted reviews of that ONE PLACE. Hmmmmm… a little fishy. I promise you– these are NOT the best donuts. If you truly think this place has the best donuts, you HAVE to venture out of the town of Sylmar. Or, I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion. :-/​
TINY parking lot. Bad.
CASH ONLY. Very bad. I hate going to places that require cash only.
Service– ok. Average friendly.
Not a whole lot else to say about this place.

Great selection of donuts and bagels! Im here almost every
Morning for my coffee and ham &cheese. I really like the service I get from the bald Asian guy (good looking guy). ;)

My family and I have been coming here for the past 10 years. And after all these years, I can still honestly say that their bagels, donuts, are hands down the freshest and best I’ve ever had. Every single pastry item in the shop is baked fresh daily and the best time to get is between 4am-​12pm. They make everything from scrap including their homemade cream cheese. Their bagels arnt your typical east coast style where the bagels are literally as hard as a rock! Bagels from Choony’s are soft and fluffy. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! Once you’ve tried it, you’ll know what I mean :) Customer service is outstanding. The wonderful elder lady who greeted my family and I throughout the years is one of the sweetest, kindest person we’ve come to known.

BEST Donuts in Sylmar, this place has been around for over 15yrs. I’ve been going here from Jr high school, high school, collage, and now i have been dropping by almost every morning before work for a donut and a coffee. Donuts and pastries are always hot and fresh. My co workers also LOVE their donuts and pastries. And finally their bagel sandwich are also VERY delicious.
my favorate is the Glazed Twist. yuuuuuuuuuummie!!!
BTW the bald asian male is also very nice and quite handsome =P

The location is kinda shady. Hood-​rats, cholos and bikers saturate the area. Its located right down the street from like 6 diver bars, in the heart of Sylmar. That’s the thing though, it’s Sylmar, what do you expect?!
The donuts and pastries are A++, much better than the major chains like yum yum, way fresher too. Large selection of bagels and sandwiches as well. It would be nice if I could walk in there at 11am and they still had a large selection of donuts. Later in the day, pickings in the donut display case get slim.
They really need to improve their service and stop rushing the order/​paying process. I always feel pressured to pick my fancies on the fly, sometimes they rush me so much that either I or they forget to include part of my order.
The donuts are moist, fresh and fluffy! Worth a visit!

Donuts and pastries are good. Seating area was dirty and my decaf coffee took forever to be ready. Also, a bit overpriced.

The last thing you want early in the morning is an angry host. I bought breakfast and sat down to have a quiet meal when the owners/​host was arguing with other customers. The food was okay, but if you eat there, watch out for the yelling.
