Found BC Donuts on Yelp when I was searching for places in the area that offer custom donuts. The ordering and pick up process was easy and seamless! I coordinated with them on Instagram (their handle is @bcdonuts_pasadena) and told them the letters I wanted as well as the color combination. I placed my order on Tuesday for pick up on Saturday, and they were able to accommodate the short notice! I would recommend placing your order earlier if possible :) The custom donuts that I ordered were a hit! I shared a picture on social media and many of my friends asked where I got them from. They're great for birthdays and other special occasions! I'll definitely be back for more in the future :) read more

Delicious donuts, yummy breakfast sandwiches and good service ! Never fails. Look at the smile on the little ones face!!! read more

BC’s Donuts - Sprinkles and milk!!! - Donuts Near Me - Pasadena, California

We ordered breakfast sandwiches and they were so delicious! We got an everything bagel with egg, sausage and hash brown. This is easily one of the best breakfast sandwiches around. We also got a croissant with egg, cheese and sausage. Super yummy. Love the Thai iced tea. Donuts are good too! Definitely a favorite spot! read more

Awesome mom and pop store in Pasadena/Alta Dena area. During covid, they have less of their fancy options. Their donuts were very chewy, fluffy and light. The glazed donut wasn't as sweet as the Krispy Kreme donuts. I got 7 donuts for $8 bucks, so it's reasonably priced! Johnny was super nice and patient with taking my list of orders! Make sure to ask for the matcha donut, it's not on the menu! read more

I highly recommend the Sausage, Egg, and cheese Croissant Sandwich. I always call ahead of time and they have it ready within 10 minutes. read more

If your in Pasadena you have to stop. Great people here plus winderful products! Go go go.

As one of what may as well be a thousand Donut shops in Southern California it would be a difficult task to describe anything that makes B.C. Donuts "different," but since 1987 the family owned shop at 2525 East Foothill Boulevard has been serving the residents of Pasadena fried Dough at a fair price starting at 5am daily. No-frills in a good way, cleanly but not "fancy" and cash-only for orders under $10, it was in a white bag that six Donuts were deposited on Thursday, first bites of Blueberry Cake warm and moist while the Buttermilk Bar found Glaze penetrating a few Centimeters beneath the exterior that fries up crisp and oilless. Serving a good variety, Yeast Rings topped with buttery Crumble light and sweet, B.C.'s Cruller unfortunately trends a bit too greasy while Devil's Food and a Sour Cream Old Fashioned are equal to or better than other mom n' pop shops. read more

I have tried a large variety of their donuts and enjoy their French Crullers, Apple Fritter and Blueberry donuts the most. What I like is that they have large variety and have unique flavors, such as taro, black sesame and matcha. You do taste the flavors within the frosting. I tried some other speciality donuts and thought was alright, such as their creme brûlée donut. I think they also do customized donuts. The workers there are super nice and they look family owned. They care about their customers and will let you enjoy choosing your donuts through their window. They also seem to follow the pandemic safety guidelines, wearing masks and gloves and only let customers order outside- which I prefer! They share a small parking lots in the plaza. Since it is bright and pink, you should be able to see it when your driving. read more

BC’s Donuts - Went with a basic dozen this morning! Yuuuuum - Donuts Near Me - Pasadena, California

Donuts are fresh and delicious. My favorite is the glazed twist. Recently tried the croissant breakfast sandwiches - sausage and egg, and ham, egg and cheese. Both were also delicious! I live close and usually get my order to go, but there are a few outdoor tables where you can sit and enjoy your food. The staff are always pleasant which rounds out a five-star experience. Be warned: the good stuff runs out early, so don't sleep (in) on this place! read more

This place is an absolute gem. The customer service is amazing-- kind and attentive staff.... Always smiling. The breakfast food is so good. My favorite is the Ham and Cheese croissant. Beats any fast food chain by a million points. The mornings are always busy with regulars but they get through the order really fast and so there isn't too much of a wait read more

First time here. Cute spot inside. But I noticed I didn't tip for asking for donuts and a sandwich and I was left waiting for 15 min for a sandwich that was cold and waiting in the back. I was waiting with my daughter for 15 min and I had to ask for it for them to go in the back and get it. I felt like cause I didn't tip they purposely waited and didn't tell me it was waiting. We never left the shop so it's not like they didn't see us. I don't think I'd be back off my experience for having a cold over priced sandwich read more

Simply gosh darn good donuts! That's what I generally come for but do nit sleep in the fact that there are a plethora of breakfast items and what is most important to me. Friendly and pleasant staff. I'm sweats in the go so this is my stop by for a quick tasty grab and go read more

wowwwwwww. I love this donut shop. stopped by because i was hungry in the area and saw this place. didnt look pleasing from the outside, in a small parking lot near sushi ya. Turkey crossiant sandwich - yum, cheese is perfect. not salty and how I like it . Turkey slices were really salt . but overall sandwich is good . I would order again without Turkey, since I'm sensitive to high sodium food donut was all amazing! freshly made in the morning and unicorn is really cute . I bought couple for a office . customer service was great!! employees were all friendly and nice. helped me figure what sandwiches were good. they made a warm welcome and goodbye . I love to come back often. (usually donut shop arent friendly and dont have young crowds working ) most of all , prices are good! for what I'm paying for. 4$ for a breakfast sandwich that I enjoyed. (unlike ptjrr doughnut shops , theres always something wrong with it ) read more

BC’s Donuts - half dozen for 8$ unicorn is cute - Donuts Near Me - Pasadena, California

The cinnamon roll tastes greasy, is smaller than other places, and is the most expensive in the area among independent donut shops.

Best donuts I've ever had!!! Unbelievably amazing. I can't stop thinking about the strawberry cruller and the raspberry glaze and I need to come back to try the buttermilk and classic!!!!!!!! I wish I lived in Pasadena so I could come here all the time read more

They have the best sandwiches! The breakfast croissants are so good and the Turkey Club is next level!

My coworkers and I absolutely love the donuts here. Everytime I bring donuts for our staff, they're always asking where this donut place is. Everything I've tried is really good here, but I love their glazed with coconut. What I love about this place is that everyone who works here is so nice. I've been coming here for years they've always been so nice and friendly with all their customers. read more

Love this place. Family owned and delicious donuts and sandwiches at a good price. Super friendly service.

Stopped by twice, never left disappointed. Don't let the exterior fool you, this place has a lot of unique donuts in addition to the staples. Their regular menu is expansive and solid, with A LOT of cake options that will please people like me who prefer cake over raised style! They offer some pricier specials on the weekends, and I got to try some of those too. Really cute! And the ones I ate (saved some for others) were delicious and lived up to social media hype, particularly the ube cake donut. I'll delve into a few of the more social media famous items... Picked up some celebratory donuts from BC Donuts, in Pasadena. Most of these are their pricier specials but the regular menu is still excellent. I took a couple of close-up pictures of the ube/taro cake donut and s'mores raised donut, because I think those are the ones most people see on social. The crème brûlée donut is often advertised, and while plain looking, it really does taste exactly like a crème brûlée... I preferred it with a burnt (dark) sugary crust, but that's just luck of the draw. It tastes good less burnt too. The ube one lives up to the hype. It is light and cakey, not as dense as traditional buttermilk or old-fashioned cake donuts. The ube cake isn't too sweet either, so the layer of frosting and Oreos add nice flavor. Their black sesame cruller and matcha raised donuts are also worth trying. read more

Heard so many good things about this place, but was seriously disappointed. Picked up a dozen various today (December 27) and took them to my parents. It was like biting into bread filled with oil. Old oil at that. None of us could take a second bite. I hope this was a rare occurrence and that someone new was baking? Will look to give them another chance because they have so many reviews and I know they've been there for a number of years, but they should know. read more

Delicious donuts, great breakfast sandwiches!!!! We order all the time. Kids are always happy as well

I've been here a couple times now and think their doughnuts are solid, not too dough-y and have decent longevity when you can't eat them the same day. Their apple fritter is better than average. They also have tasty croissant sandwiches. Custom orders with characters or letters are also possible. COVID-19 notes: order at window only read more

BC’s Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Pasadena, California

Have been getting donuts from here for years. We enjoy the quality. Service has also been friendly; However, 5+ dollars for 2 donuts seems alittle much. Also, I'm not a fan of thr businesses asking for a tip as you scan your credit card (on the screen). read more

First time to get donuts and bagels and croissants at BC Donuts and definitely not the last one. All my little family enjoyed everything we got there for breakfast. The people who welcomed us and served us were the nicest and we got our hot stuff in a heartbeat. Because all tables were taken, we went to Victoria Park, 5 min drive to enjoy our delicious treats read more

I was a bit slow to try BC. I had driven by it a few times, and not stopped in. I really don't think that there are that many good donut shops in LA or Pasadena. But I am the guy who brings donuts into the office on Fridays, so I know where to go for donuts. After trying BC, I have to admit this has to be one of the top 5 donut places in LA. But if you also judge it by price to quality, it's one of the best in LA. You can get a great donut at Donut Friend, if you want to spend $4 on a donut. BC is still very reasonably priced for an excellent donut. They are as good or better than Donut Man, without the overflowing fruit option. The cinnamon swirl donut is reminiscent of a Krispy Kreme, but so much more enjoyable. I know I am going to face a day when this place goes full hipster and there is a 15 minute line out the door, but until then, this is my favorite donut shop in town. read more

After watching the Donut King documentary, i realized this donut shop is one of the stores named in the movie, and it's just a few miles away from me! Since my first visit, I've made a few repeat stops here. For donuts, I typically teach for glazed, and they're solid here. When I want a hearty breakfast though, I love their croissant breakfast sandwiches!! Highly recommend these! read more

My now HUSBAND and I have been going to BC donuts for the past 6 years since being in our duplex near by. They are the absolute best donuts, fantastic sandwiches and diner coffee that is De- LICious and overflowing. They remover the name of anyone who comes more than once and will sometimes throw in a couple extra donut rolls if it's late in the day. They are some of the few people who work to please the customer. Cannot recommend them enough! read more

They were fresh! We enjoyed it. Specially after many hours, they were still ok. If you are looking for decent place for donuts I would recommend it. read more

Best donuts around. You can taste the homemade-ness. You can taste that the oil is clean and not over used. Cinnamon crumble, glazed are our faves. I also like the lemon jelly, which is special. The jelly is their own recipe. Donut part is not soggy, but has slight crisp. If you like lemon, you gotta try it. Best old school donuts. Not overpriced like Randy's. My favorite donut place. read more

Stumbled upon this spot and so glad I did! First impression I thought the donut shop was so cute loved all the pink seating and how clean it looked inside. All donuts looked so pretty and fluffy. Definitely give their breakfast items a try, so delicious. I ordered the bacon egg and cheese bagel and it was definitely the best I had. Also got an iced coffee strong and flavorful! Employees we're extremely kind and friendly. Service was fast and efficient. Will definitely come back! Worth the drive read more

Quick and easy service. Sandwiches were freshly made. Need to try more items on the menu

They have the best Ham, egg, and cheese croissants! They have a lot of different breakfast sandwich options to choose from.

No tricks, no gimmicks. This is a solid basic donut spot. I was lucky enough to arrive when donuts were coming hot from the fryer so my sample was at peak freshness. My reference donut, glazed, was great. I also got a huge breakfast sandwich bagel and a few other donuts (French Cruller FTW!). All were what you'd expect from your corner donut shop--fresh, cheap, and tasty! read more

I've been coming here for years but not frequently. I've found that over time their donuts and breakfast sandwiches are great every time! read more

BC’s Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Pasadena, California

Grabbed a yeast raised and a donut hole (yes, one donut hole. I know, I know... I'm weird). Anyways, the donut hole was more enjoyable than the donut. Mostly due to the desire for a little more sweetness on the much larger donut. The donut itself is pretty damn thick, and the ratio of sweetness to dough was just a tad off for me. I'm more of a fan of the lighter/soft/pillowy/airy interior. Customer service and staff courtesy was on point. It's definitely worth a visit if you're local or a passerby. The price is right, and donuts are still life *insert drool emoji* read more

BC's......what happened this morning? Came in for National Donut Day a little after 8:00 and the racks were almost completely empty. Took the last Old Fashioned and the last Buttermilk Bar. The The Old Fashioned tasted like yesterday's product....dry and tasteless. Too bad for the people behind me in line. This has always been my go to donut shop in Pasadena. Hope this was just a one time hiccup! read more

OMG, if you haven't had their Signature Sandwiches... what are you waiting for? My favorite is their Spicy Tuna, the perfect combination with their Wasabi/Sriracha Mayo is amazing! Love their specialty donuts as well, get them while you can... Creme Brulee, Rocky Road, Green Tea, and Carrot Cake are to die for! Still my favorite donut shop in Pasadena, and I always leave with a Big Pink Box! read more

Honestly this place is so yummy. It may not look like much from the outside but the quality and flavors don't lie. They have everything from breakfast sandwiches, lunch, to your good old fashioned doughnuts. One thing that I loved was that it tastes so fresh. I hate doughnuts that taste stale or like they've been sitting there for a while. Or have like an oily taste. BC's doesn't taste like that at all. I personally love their avocado toast which is currently not on the menu but if you ask they have always been kind enough to make it for me. Their turkey club sandwich for lunch is fire!! My husband really likes their breakfast sandwiches. This spot is defiantly a little gem in Pasadena. read more

Came across this shop randomly while getting sushi. The quality of the donuts were actually really good, and i'd say one of my top picks in the area. Got the buttermilk glazed, super crispy edges and the flavor was on point. The thai tea was also solid. Service was awesome and I liked the friendly and informational vibes from the family that runs this place. Will be back to try the sandwiches. read more
