Nice texture, fluffy and light. Slight crisp from being fried. In love with the flavor options, I'm a big fruit fan and the tropical themed flavors are unique. The mango was definitely top tier! Churro was also a favorite. I was a little disappointed with the guava cream, a little light in flavor for my taste but still good. I like that you can customize the donut to an extent, able to choose the outer dusting for your donut. I wish I went full glutton and tried more flavors!! $2 and some change not bad for a non-basic donut. I've been to other trendy donut spots that horribly overcharge! Some seating outside, parking was plenty. Cashier was patient and cheery. read more

After so many suggestions, I was finally able to find a minute and stop in to Aloha Jay's in Hellertown. I did not get the chance to meet Jay, but the girl at the counter was very friendly and understanding when I said I want a breakfast sandwich and I don't want to have to try and pronounce it . So this sandwich is ... really friggen good. Creamy scrambled eggs with cheese, bacon, scallion, and a hash brown on a Malasada with sriracha aioli and a sweet cream drizzle. This was absolutely the creamiest breakfast sandwich I've ever had. The texture of the eggs was awesome, and the bacon being chopped up throughout was really nice because it was far easier to eat than having to chew through full slices and break them up. The sriracha adds a really pleasant dimension and flavor and the Malasada was a nice change of pace, no matter how much I love a fresh Kaiser roll. I'll definitely be back to try the sweet Malasada's and the burger they're doing for lunch now but I will say for now that Aloha Jay's absolutely - Didn't Suck! read more

Placed an order for pickup online using their website (they have a rewards program). They have a parking lot with plenty of spaces which looks to be shared between 3 places. Did not have to wait for my food at all, everything was ready upon entering the store. I placed an order for a Mana Jr meal set w/ Jay's sauce, regular Kona iced coffee, and a mixed mini malaysada set with the chocolate dobash and snow cap cream dipping sauces. The bun was not overly sweet and the burger was delicious, fries were well seasoned but not too salty and the sauce reminds me a little in and out's. The dipping sauces were also not too sweet so I felt like I could indulge Will definitely return to try their other mixed flavors of malaysadas and the breakfast sandwich when I get a chance. Yum! read more

Visited on a Sunday morning. Friendly service, fair prices, sweet lady near the entrance was making sure people had a Hawaiian lei if they wanted one too (also offered a seat to me in case I wanted one while I was waiting for my order). I like that it had a fun, original concept. I had a chocolate cream filled malasada (the one I chose tasted kind of like a Boston cream donut with chocolate cream with sugar costing instead of a plain/glaze imo, but maybe a very slightly different texture to the donut than I'm used to). Enjoyed my latte too (note: they don't have mocha sauce, only chocolate syrup if you want it chocolaty - I opted to just have it sweetened with sugar and it was all good). read more

Have been hearing about this place for awhile, finally had a chance to try them out and it was worth it. I ordered the mana jr, alpha fries and the aloha jays punch. The burger was awesome wish I woulda got the mana burger(2 patties vs the jrs 1)they use the same donut base so it was fluffy. Shoestring fries were good wished I got more but $2 for a small is very reasonable. Also got a few donuts, strawberry creme was my kids fav. Made a special trip up here to try them out n will be a repeat customer for sure! Staff was great, small coffee shop with big personality and great flavors. read more

I'm down for ube anything but unfortunately, their ube malasadas were out of rotation when I FINALLY made my way to Aloha Jay's. Instead, they had matcha which is always a close second favorite flavor so I got that. That, and the chocolate covered banana cream pie. The latter was not the neatest to eat but it was DELICIOUS!! I mean D E L I C I O U S! The banana didn't taste fake and the chocolate was not overbearingly sweet. So good! The matcha, however, was a HUGE disappointment. Like I said, I love matcha but this was awful! It didn't taste grassy or earthy at all. Instead, it had a fishy flavor to it. I couldn't understand it. It was NOT good. Overall, the donuts themselves were GREAT! Warm, with a nice chew, and a good size for the price. I think next time, I'm gonna get them NOT filled with another chocolate covered banana cream pie malasada to go with it. The place is cute and bright and feels islandy in the middle of Hellertown. There is no indoor seating but they have some seat out front. No bathrooms to wash your hands of the stickiness so bring wipes. Customer service was great with the Auntie helping everyone out up front. The cashier, God bless her for hustling the snaked around line AND drinks at the same time! read more

Malasadas are the ultimate donut. Soft! Great taste! Warm! Excellent! The sandwich's are big! Big and tasty! Highly recommended!

On a snowy day this Wednesday, we stopped for a quick breakfast sandwich and a filled donut. Mackenzie took our order and a few minutes later, a stuffed sandwich full of scrambled eggs, bacon bits atop a hash brown pattie. $5.85. Quite satisfying. And a filled sugar coated malasada to enjoy with coffee later. The donut was light, fresh and hot $2.59 each read more

My wife and I tried this place today for the first time. Wow! The donut itself was amazing. This is a place where I would perfectly happy ordering a plain donut. I ordered a donut filled with chocolate that tasted like a melted Hersey bar. On top was crushed up Kit Kat pieces and caramel. It was phenomenal! My wife got a sweet, salty, tangy one. I don't know what it was coated in, but it was tasty. I also ordered a breakfast sandwich. The donut was cut open, stuffed with eggs, cheese, and some sort of sauce. It was wonderful. So good in fact, after one bite, my wife ordered one for herself. I will be returning here again! read more

Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and greeted immediately by a very nice lady who gave me a lei. I ordered 3 plain sugar coated, 3 Bavarian cream filled, and 1 mango filled. They were all hot and delicious! Definitely better than any large chain donut offering in the area, even though it's not a donut. I will definitely return to try different flavors. Highly recommend! read more

Great addition to Hellertown! Fun, upbeat spot. Malasadas are fresh, delicious and true to Hawaii. Kona coffee is great. The true asset is Mamma handing out leis as you walk in! The only negative it that when busy (weekends), it takes a very long time to fulfill orders. read more

Aloha Jay’s Malasadas - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hellertown, Pennsylvania

This is a must stop if you are in the Allentown area. The malasadas are delicious--made fresh and served warm. The dough is very light . Was I shamelessly eating one as soon as I got in my car, topping all over my face and running down my hand? You bet I was! Were the people in the car next to me doing the same thing? Yes, they were! Was someone else standing outside of the building gulping down a malasada as soon as she rounded the corner? Yep! I think that tells you just about everything you need to know. I should add that the coffee was also excellent. On a sidenote, these are not as good the next day, but that's to be expected. This place will be a definite stop for me the next time I'm in the area. read more

Made to order malasadas. The girl behind the counter was nice. Such a variety of flavors. Seems expensive for 1 "donut" but they're more than just that. One is very filling. read more

We tried a few of the malasada flavors: mango, pina colada, strawberry, ube, apple, peanut butter banana, key lime, banana cream, and they were all good. Iced Kona coffee was also good. Jean offers leis to customers when they come in, as a way to add to the Hawaiian experience, which is the theme of their business. And Jean is so friendly and helpful to customers. We also greeted Jay when he said hi to us, not knowing who he was at first. And we met one of the donut chefs. Aloha Jay's is a great addition to Lehigh Valley. read more

Didn't get lei'd but I did get to meet Mama Jean who was pretty darn amazing. She was ready for a laugh and in the short amount of time I was there, we had plenty of them. I had a plain Malasadas which was basically just warm bread but it was well-baked and very hearty. I'd recommend getting something with a little sugar on it, but I am not complaining! They had latte type drinks but my hot latte was pretty cold. Still nonetheless a nice toasty place on a cold Winter morning read more

Great malasadas, super nice staff, very ohana vibes. The coconut cream filled was bananas (slang, contains no actual banana), and even the plain was delish. The only reason I'm not there this morning is because I'm out of town, but I'll be making another trip as soon as I get back. Bonus: Kona coffee was hot, legit, and really robust. Can't go wrong. read more

It was so fresh and delicious! I had the smores donut, fruit punch, and the Holoholona (the egg sandwich). The service was great, everyone was super sweet. Thank you guys! Most definitely coming back. read more

Excited to try the new minis which just launched and the choice of dippers was limited. I was hoping that after a month the consistency of the dough would be less "chewy" and a bit lighter. My husband had trouble biting into his regular size and needed to get out a knife and fork. This was 8:30am so we had hoped they were hot but barely warm sadly. The music inside is also very loud especially when trying to order. read more

First timer .. ordered 12 different pastries.. please keep in mind .. I don't eat a lot of sweets so for me way too sweet.. the dough is good but too much sugar on the outside making it very messy.. very fresh pastry/donut..for me too much filling at least they are generous.. cute place .. easy to find.. pleasant employees ..clean.. prices very reasonable.. I would definitely recommend you try Aloha Jay's !! Support small business ! read more

Don't walk, RUN to Aloha Jay's! The coffee is perfection, the malasadas are light and airy, the vibe is on point, and when you walk in, you're greeted by Mama Jean and a lei! Every single employee always has a smile on their face and clearly loves this place as much as I do! We had a great conversation with Jay this morning, such a down to earth, cool guy! I can't say enough positive things about this place! read more

Greeting by Mama Jean was special. The experience was unique, highly recent it. Malasadas were AWESOME. we'll never eat another donut. This place is a must go to whenever you need something special. Now our regular go to. read more

I really enjoyed the donuts they were filled and fresh awesome customer service I will highly recommend aloha jays

Incredible. Great food great service and great ambiance. Keep coming back again and again.

Visited for my first time, it's a cute small shop, the baristas were polite. The owner (I believe it was the owner) was also very nice and gave me a free doughnut, which was delicious. Different than a regular doughnut it's very airy almost if a croissant and a doughnut mixed. I also got a Carmel iced latte, it was just average. The one thing I will say, it's quite pricey but it's a new shop so I expected it. read more

Went here on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. I think the filling flavors vary depending on when you visit, we got four malasadas but two stood out: mango filled sugarcoated and a rice pudding filled cinnamon and sugarcoated. Dough is chewier than a traditional donut and the day after malasada we had was underwhelming, however, I would try more flavors as they are amazing when fresh. Got a couple colorful leis on the visit too. read more

The donuts (malasadas) are the most delicious I have ever eaten! They are warm and absolutely melt in your mouth. You can choose your filling and outside sugar flavor. Make a special trip to try these delectable treats. Get one of each. You will not be sorry. read more

5 stars all the way! I frequent Hawaii often due to family, and the malasadas at Leonard's and Penny's in Honolulu are no comparison to this place. Leonard's in Honolulu is a staple of the island and they definitely produce a good product. But Aloha Jay's far exceeds Leonard's in my opinion. The consistency in texture, taste and fillings far exceed anything I ever had on the island. And as a coffee drinker the Kona Coffee is off the chain. You will not be disappointed. Worth the drive. read more

Greeted at door. All of the staff are friendly. Reasonably priced. Will be back. Good variety of flavors.

These donuts are delish!!!! Yummm can't wait to go back for more!! They were fresh and the balance from the sweetness of the filling with the light dough is delightful! Highly recommend! read more

We tried 4 different malasadas. All were fresh, warm, fillings were delicious. You can have with or without sugar coated. I had iced coffee which was good too. The people serving are friendly and they serve fast so didn't had to wait. It has its parking space. It has access ramp, and a nice waiting area out, to wait or wanna have a quick bite. Recommended, will come again. read more

if you want a donut come early!!!! I came in at 11:00am and they said they had 2 donuts overall. They said the next batch they have will be in 45-60 minute, also with that if one customer bought like two dozens they will have little mount of donuts. Even though I couldn't buy what I want the cashier was understanding and the lady with the haiwian necklaces was very nice read more
