Donut Den

First time coming in to this place because of all the good reviews. However my experience was not as good. Ordered 15 donuts only given 13. Customer service is below standard. And way too expensive. $ 17.20 for 13 donuts, really!!! No worth coming back

This is my local doughnut shop. Many mention the Charlie Brown, which is good, but for me, it’s the solid selection, above average across the board options, friendly service and convenience, that makes this my go to local haunt. Maple bars will always be my go to… if you ever up early, stop in for the freshest tastiest bar ever.

They have fancy looking donuts here but that’s it. Meaning they decorate basic donuts with cereal toppings, pretty cool. Donuts were just ok, middle of the road. The selection was small not much of a variety.

Finally, after reading so many great reviews about this place I purchased my first Charlie Brown donut. I am not a fan of donuts so for someone like me to state that donuts like their Charlie Brown and old fashion donuts are actually good, that says a lot.
The service is very friendly. They welcome every person that lines up to get their delights. My first visit was a bite of their breakfast croissant sandwich comprised of egg, cheese, ham, and bacon. Not bad. It’s not spectacular but not bad either. Their ham and cheese croissant on a separate trip was also pretty good. You expect a huge amount of cheese but it’s just enough as to not goo all over the place like some other places do. That’s personal preference.
The Charlie Brown is a little tricky to explain. It almost looks like a cinnamon roll and unravels like a cinnamon roll but it’s not a cinnamon roll. You get a glazed roll with a combined twist of what tastes like both basic dough and chocolate. Definitely chocolate in the Charlie Brown.
The Donut Den, parking is super easy to find in the lot, the prices for donuts are affordable, service is friendly, and the donuts are a treat. Coming from someone who tries to go by a healthy food diet, it’s hard to resist Donut Den after the first couple of experiences. I say a couple because who knows if the first visit was a lucky friendly one. That’s happened plenty of times at other food venues. Donut Den checks out. So if you’re looking for actual legitimate donuts, this is the place to stop by. The Charlie Brown is not a must but it’s nice to try what all the fuss is about.

I like this place. The donuts are fresh, not too heavy, and taste really good. It’s a family owned business with Dad, Mom, and the kids taking care of customers every morning. They are extremely nice and warm people, and I enjoy giving them my business. I would go here every morning if I could, but since it gets dark early this time of year I can’t go running as much as I’d like to and I’d blow up if I ate donuts every day. Give this place a try; you’ll like it.
One piece of advice: it’s a hassle to turn into the parking lot from the turn lane headed eastbound on PCH, at least on weekday mornings where there’s a ton of traffic headed towards South High.

I love their donuts. Not greasy but sweet and delicious. Everytime I bring these to work people comment how good they are.

Wowzers! The cronut was amazing! We should’ve gotten more.
The coconut donut was super good too! What a good and bad sugar-​loading!
Staff was nice. I would go back for more.

Great donuts! Picked up a dozen colorful donuts topped with cereal and marshmallows for the office the other day and they were a hit! My favorite was the Oreo panda donut! The people here are so nice too! I’ll be coming back for sure.

Definitely not a service professional place. Went there on Father’s Day and got a very rude counter lady who spoke loudly and rushed your orders. Literally said «hurry up» to my wife with 2kids trying to pick there favorites for their dad. I understand there are rush hours (we were there at 10am) but to talk back and be rude to costumer is just not right for any business.
Btw, there donuts and sandwiches are like other Unilocalers comments, «nothing to write about».

Got some donuts for the coworkers for national donit day. The old fashion is the best donut here. It’s crispy on the outside, moist and dense in the inside. Come early for the best choices.
Plenty of parking and definitely a lot of memories going here during middle school and high school.
The newer owners are also nice.
Try them out, they have boba drinks too although I haven’t tried it myself.
.25 for credit card use. A dozen is $ 9.

Great little family owned bakery. The people remember me and they are very welcoming.
The donuts are really good too.

I came here the other day to get a donut treat for my little one and myself. I got an orange cruller. It was definitely light. I needed another, but I resisted. I was looking for some ice cream, but there was none to be found.

This was my first time here. I ordered an old fashioned and figured I’d get the free check in donut as well. I showed the check in to the employee and she said she said that it wasn’t for this shop. Uh… huh? So I double check the name, yup, it’s Donut Den. On PCH. She asks another guy who is working. He doesn’t know anything about the check in deal either. And repeats what she says: It’s not for here. I don’t have time for this foolery so I’m 2 seconds from high tailing it out of there when another lady appears, who speaks better English, says yes I can use it, on an original glazed. And this is what I expected in the first place. Not to be looked at like I was an alien trying to cheat the store out of a donut (really…trying to come up on a freakin donut??) The second lady who I figured was the manager said the other lady was new when I asked why she didn’t know about the offer. But still… why didn’t the other male employee know? The manager was totally nice but the employee who looked at me like I was crazy never apologized and stared me down after the debacle. I’m used to that type of treatment from that ethnicity (I’m black), but it’s a horrible feeling and the only thing that kind of made up for it was how nice the manager was. Hopefully it was a probationary period for that employee and she learns how to treat customers (especially 1^st time customers!) better.
Donuts were ok but nothing to write home about. Probably not coming back.

It was after fajr prayer on my wayback.home. around 6:30am.I noticed a bunch of elder folks outside the store with big smiles. big green bright sign. I had to go findout what’s up hahaha. I got in and it was busy!!! Nice folks. real good doughnuts. try it you will not regret it!!!

[Homer Simpson]mmmmmm donuts[drooooooooolllll]
Donut Den, family owned and operated.
I had to wake up at 4 in the morning (2÷2÷2015) so I can get ready for work at Williams Sonoma which they were doing inventory at 5:30 and so they were having a pot luck. I decided on donuts. I rolled in at 5 am still sleepy and bought a dozen donuts that was freshly made.
The lady grabbed a dozen glaze for me and also asked if I wanted some coffee but I declined but also asked if I was going into work and I said yes.
I’ve been coming to Donut Den for a while since my good friend Peter K. and his family used to own this place. I would come here get a donut or a drink or buy a lotto here and shoot the crap with Peter as well as watch the customers come in and buy food.
The Non-​Greasy and Lightweight carried on to the new owners!!!
By the way when a bunch of us break for lunch at 9:30 in the morning, a bunch of the donuts I brought in were gone. As I got off work, there was one left!!! I did good!!!
Donut Den still beats the crap out of Krispy Kreme.

DEN of DONUTS
Who doesn’t like DONUTS? I’m gonna go with NO ONE, unless your have the unfortunate gluten or wheat allergy and even then you probably still really like them but just can’t have them or shouldn’t.
Well this SUNDAY morning after spending a second night in the hospital and be surrounded by a army of WONDERFUL nurses and nurse aids who were basically at the mom-​n-​ators and my beckon call and SUPER UBER HELPFUL I decided to get up and go get some DONUTS for the nursing staff on my mom’s floor. It is NOT like I was getting any rest anyway seeing as when you’re in the hospital there is someone coming in the room every 2 seconds to do or monitor something for the patient.
I rolled over and grabbed my not so smart phone and searched for «DONUTS» on my TRUSTY Unilocal app. Several came up and I selected the one that was the closest to my location so I could run there and be back in two shakes of a lamb’s tail. That’s «QUICKLY» for the rest of you.
I popped in my contacts, grabbed my wallet and keys, jumped in the car and headed over to the DONUT DEN. It was ONLY like 1.5 miles away from my location which was PREFECT. The streets were pretty empty so I got there in a FLASH! Parking was SUPER DUPER easy and PLENTIFUL since this place is located in a large strip mall with Ross and a drug store.
When I walked in I was greeted right away with a smile and a WARM CHEERY «GOOD MORNING, How can I help you». After my long night at the hospital it was MUSIC to my ears. Seems so simple but that WARM welcome made all the difference at that point.
I asked for 2 dozen of assorted donuts. I was asked if I wanted them all in one box or separated and I got them separated. This was perfect because there are two nurses’ stations on the floor and I wanted to be able to split up each dozen. I also asked for a few assorted muffins and 9 assorted flavored croissants in case there was someone TRYING to watch there sugar in take or waist-​line, plus there might be someone that didn’t care for DONUTS!
There was also a FREE DONUT with check-​in and the KIND lady through in a few DONUT holes as well. SOOOO NICE! I also grabbed a couple OJ’s to wash in all down as well. I paid and was out in less than 5 minutes and heading back to the HOSPITAL.
I dropped off a dozen of DONUTs and a half DOZEN of muffins and croissants to each desk and headed back to the mom-​n-​ators room. I was able to get the treats there before the shift change so both the night and morning shifts were able to partake. Sooo MANY «THANK YOU» were received from all the staff both in the morning and also as some returned later that night.
The DONUTS holes and FREE donut I got was LIGHT and YUMMY! You could tell they were FRESH! Not OVERLY glazed up which was GREAT! The croissant were also SUPER DUPER LIGHT and FRESH and didn’t fall apart in a crumbly mess like they do when they are STALE or HARD. They were also NOT GREASY and DIDN’T weight you down. They also sell several different bottled drinks, ham and cheese croissants, b-​fast sands, coffee, and hot chocolate to accompany your DONUT.
I would totally go back when I’m in the area for MORE FRESH YUMMY DONUTS!

This place claims their donuts are Non-​greasy and also Lightweight! They fulfill that promise all the way! Every single one of their donuts, even the buttermilk isn’t greasy, which is hard to come by everyone!
I’ve had so many of their donuts! the apple fritter, charlie brown, buttermilk, and their glazed donuts are fantastic!
Bummer they’re only open till 3pm, they could have business till at least 6!

Yummy donuts! Way better than Dunkin donuts. I had a glazed and a chocolate iced and they were good! They seemed fresh and were just good! I don’t know what else I can say lol cute boxes too!

What lured me into this place was their sign that said «light and non-​greasy.» I mean donuts that are non-​greasy? I def had to come here to try it out. After checking out their Unilocal page, I also saw that a check-​in gives you a free donut! Now, I DEF had to come try a donut.
What sucked was that they close pretty early during the day (around 3PM during the week). After a second try, I finally was able to make it in on a Sunday before they closed at 1PM. I saw that there were cronuts and since I’ve never tried cronuts before, I decided to try one. I showed the worker my Unilocal coupon, but he said that was only for the normal glazed donuts. Well, I guess I just had to get 2 donuts then!
The cronut was pretty good. It was my first ever, so I didn’t really know what to expect. However, it was definitely NOT light. The glazed donut, however, was pretty light and non-​greasy. Usually you see the oil from the donuts sink onto the bag. However I didn’t see any grease or oil at all on the bag of the donut.
I would suggest getting the glazed donut if you want something light and non-​greasy!

Disappointing donuts.
The cruelers have fake flavored toppings and the chocolate donut I had a bite of barely had any chocolate.
