I had an unmemorable experience at Alhambra Donuts. I ordered a Red Cereal Donut. The dough tasted bland and watery, and the top had potent processed sugary sweetness. It was also a little chewy as if being out for too long. (Important Note: Don't bring card. There's a 50 Cent added fee for card payments; however, Staff also mentioned that card required a $25 payment minimum. Compared to other donut spots, that's ridiculously high.) I arrived on a weekday (around 7:40PM). Parking is simple. There's an available parking lot out front. Staff is very attentive. Staff sits next to the door by the counter, so Staff quickly pops up when a customer arrives. Staff is professional and efficient. On ambiance, Alhambra Donuts is fairly clean. There's also a few tables, but a couple were kinda sticky. All in all, it's fairly standard. Overall, I had a very forgettable experience at Alhambra Donuts. The donuts are not the best, but it's also not horrendous. 2.9 out of 5 read more

I'm absolutely obsessed with the Vietnamese coffee from Alhambra Donut! I come almost every other day because it's that good. The flavor is smooth, creamy, and perfectly balanced -- it hits every time. You can really taste the quality in every sip. And don't even get me started on their pastrami sandwich with jalapeños... SO good. The pastrami is flavorful and tender, the jalapeños add the perfect kick, and everything tastes fresh and top tier. Hands down one of my favorite spots. Highly recommend! read more

I love this little donut shop! They remembered what I like and always go above and beyond to make sure I get what I like the way I want it. Service is amazing and the ladies here are super friendly. Its usually very quiet when I come in before work, but it can get busy with everyone getting their morning coffees and pastries to go. I will always support small mom and pop donut shops over the other popular chains. read more

Ok, trying another donut shop today in hopes of getting donuts that won't give the entire team a sugar high like yesterday. These donuts were much better. Also decently priced. The matcha donut was a bit bland... there was a tiny hint of matcha taste in it but tasted diluted. The ube donut was sufficient but didn't have that significant ube-ness to it. However, we still liked it because it wasn't crazy sweet. The dough had that elasticity that good donuts are supposed to have! Overall, I'd definitely come back to this one. Happy Halloween!! read more

Stumbled upon this donut shop because it's super close to my school. First of all, it's a clean place, inviting and love the customer service. The ladies were nice and greeted us with a smile. Their big box of 12 is actually really cute, with their name and design on it, The donuts were fresh and fantastic. Really enjoyed them and we brought them to the nurses in the facility we visited. I can't wait to be back and try their fresh fruit/vegetable juices next time! read more

My go to donut shop. I've been coming here regularly for about 3 years. The donuts are good and fresh. They remember who I am and my request like putting each donut in its own bag since they are for coworkers. Get here early because sometimes they run out of donuts. read more

Donuts are good! I always use the plain glaze as a litmus for comparison. Of the two donut places I've tried on the eastern side of LA, the other location (Crafted Bagels & Donuts, previously Angelino's Donuts) was just slightly better. It had more of the quintessential tasty donut features such as light and slightly crisp outer glazing with soft, airy, insides and a tad of chewiness. But both are solid donut places! Be aware that you'll be charged a credit card fee for orders under a certain amount (Crafted did not charge a credit card fee). Service was friendly though! read more

Their donuts are super fresh and soft. I stopped by in the morning after seeing they had a 50% off special for the weekend. I'm surprised even after a few days my donuts can still be soft after microwaving it. They also packaged my donuts well in a box and sealed with tape. The cheapest donut costs $1.65. Besides donuts, they also sell sandwiches, burritos, crossiants, coffee, juices, and smoothies. There is plenty of parking, but its location is located on a corner of Altlantic and a small street right next to Mission so hard to miss so drive slow. The only need for improvement I see is they should repeat a person's order to make sure they got it correct. When I ordered, I repeated and pointed at the menu the smoothie I want but ended up getting the wrong one. However, they remade it after I told them it's wrong. Therefore, it would be nice to make sure and repeat the order back to the customer to avoid these situations. Tip: Try to pay with cash if you can. A service fee of 50 cents is charged when paying with card. read more

Wonderful little donut shop! Service was very friendly. Ambiance was a typical mom and pop shop. Clean and ready for service.

My fave go to donut shop. staff are always super friendly and attentive. It's a small place but they always make you feel welcomed!

With an assortment of different donuts, breakfast burritos/sandwiches, and smoothies to choose from I'm sure there is something for everyone to choose from that they will enjoy! Located in a small plaza in the corner of Atlantic Blvd and Front St, the store is located in a nice area where they can easily be spotted. The staff at this store are always very friendly and accommodating, telling you the best deals. Their donuts are fresh and soft as well as their croissants that they prepare in the front when you order. You can definitely taste the freshness of their food. Ever since my family and I tried this store, it has become our local donut shop, I hope everyone can come and support this local business. read more

On a Friday morning 5:50am in March, I decided to check out new donut shop. The glass shelves had full range donuts. The lady behind the counter said the donuts are half off. I picked plain croissant, bear claw, cinnamon roll and total was $4.60 cents I think. She kept telling me to order a drink which I said no. They also sell juices, breakfast sandwiches, and lunch sandwiches. I took a bite and it was freshly made. I would go back and try other items. read more

I normally don't yelp anymore, but this is relevant. At first, it's easy to overlook this spot as a typical SoCal strip mall donut place, but it's not. This place has recently had a huge facelift. They no longer sell scratchers and the donut quality has improved by a long shot. I didn't even like this place before the remake. They make fresh juices and smoothies that can easily compete with the bougie spots in Beverly Hills. As I write this, I'm drinking a fantastic orange, beet, and carrot smoothie that tastes like they added sugar even though they didn't. The pastrami on croissant could probably feed two people. Get it with the jalapeño and sprouts. This place has amazing potential and I don't want future customers to overlook it because they don't know how much it's changed. read more

tl;dr the ok-at-best donuts aren't routinely worth the price -- this spot would only be worth visiting for an early morning treat when other donut competitors are still shuttered Los Angeles and the surrounding suburbs are saturated with mom-and-pop donut shops. In Alhambra, one of the most popular is the aptly named Alhambra Donuts, a friendly neighborhood store off the busy intersection of Atlantic and Mission. It shares a strip mall with a Domino's and a laundromat, sporting a sign reading only "Donuts". The shop opens at 4:30AM, clearly catering to the early bird crowd. Before dawn, the lotto jackpots shine through the window, lighting up the otherwise dark parking lot. Inside, cooly-lit fluorescent fixtures shine from the curvy recessed ceiling onto the rust-red tile floors. The wall space is all put to use, whether by cluttered shelves, mismatched menu boards, or cultural knickknacks. To the left, a long donut display is filled with the standard varieties. The light wooden counter loops to the back of the room, and an Alhambra Donuts mosaic hanging at the far end. Mismatched tables are scattered around the open room, and pink contour booths are pressed to the window on the right. During my first visit mid-morning on a weekday, Alhambra Donuts had only a small trickle of customers as I sat and "enjoyed" my donuts. I use quotation marks because, even at 9AM, the donuts collectively tasted a bit old, as though they were crafted the night before. The maple bar had a surprisingly dynamic frosting, but my compliments end there. The donut itself was dull and dry, so I tossed most of it. Meanwhile, the apple fritter sported a thick glaze and a pleasantly dense texture. However, it was completely devoid of either apple or cinnamon flavor. Finally, the old-fashioned was moist, cakey, and evenly glazed -- leaning on the above-average side of standard. Only the latter option was worth the price (which, in total, summed up to an eyebrow-raising $7). Quality wasn't much better during a return visit even earlier in the morning -- although I was impressed to see a much more robust stream of regulars shooting the breeze, buying lotto scratchers, and sipping black coffee. The owner was friendly and efficient, and she would occasionally chime into the ongoing conversation. I imagine that Alhambra Donuts has stayed afloat for years thanks to these devoted regulars -- a group that I don't ever see myself joining. read more

Delicious donuts and croissants/sandwiches. Traveled here to try something new in the area. On a Sunday morning, open parking in the lot. Not busy in the store or in the parking, so it was quiet, which was nice. Met the owner and he was very nice and amiable. A little misunderstanding with forgetting to charge 1 donut, but no big deal. Ingredients for croissant sandwich made fresh as you can hear him cooking it. Tried the ube donut, which was fresh and not too doughy or difficult to chew. More on the sweeter side and with a hint of ube. Try it out if you're in the area and want to support local businesses! read more

My kids devoured the donuts! I was surprised. The reviews has me expecting okay donuts, but these were good! We got 6 for a little over $6. We got some cruellers, an apple stuffed bear claw, Apple fritter, classic chocolate glaze and probably a sourdough donut with chocolate glaze and rainbow fritters. I've has expensive $5 a piece donuts before with stale tasting better that overwhelmed me. This is not that. The batter is solid, fluffy and fresh. The glazes and apple complement the batter. The textured donuts like cruellers and fritters are solid. Staff was friendly. At 1 pm, there were only a few trays of donuts left, probably good to go early. read more
