    Ice vanilla latte
    Hannah K.

    I've stopped by Christy's a few times now (2-3 visits so far), and it's always a consistent experience: fresh donuts and great coffee . My go-to order is the old-fashioned with white icing paired with an iced vanilla latte, and it never disappoints. The donuts are always freshly made in the morning, and the coffee is smooth and flavorful. What really impressed me is the value -- a 24oz iced coffee is only $6, which is incredible considering most places charge that for just a 12oz drink! Beyond donuts and coffee, they have so many snack options -- every type of chips you can imagine, a fridge stocked with energy drinks, juices, Gatorade, and more. They also make freshly squeezed orange juice which tastes amazing, plus hot and ready croissants and sandwiches for when you need something more filling. One thing I do wish is that they had a little more variety in donut options. They've really nailed the basics/classics, but it would be fun to see some new flavors or unique styles here and there . The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and I love stopping by here when I'm on the go. Great customer service + delicious food + unbeatable prices = highly recommend

    Neighborhood Gem Alert! My brother came to visit from out of town and stayed around the corner from Christy's Donuts. One morning, he asked if I had ever been, and I said no completely unaware that this was the donut spot I pass every single day coming off the jammed 405 freeway. I always thought it was closed since I rarely saw cars out front, so I never paid much attention. Well, my brother started raving about this place how soft the donuts are, how they make fresh-squeezed orange juice with no sugar added, and even green juice. He talked about the iced coffee and said their croissant sandwiches are top tier. He stopped in almost every morning during his stay, and that piqued my curiosity. So, one day, I went on my own little food adventure to Christy's Here's what I ordered for me, mom and my daughter: -Two vanilla iced coffees -One fresh orange juice -One glazed donut -One sprinkle donut for my daughter -A croissant sandwich with bacon, egg, cheese, avocado, and jalapeño -And for my mom, a Thai iced tea (she's picky and only gets it from one Thai restaurant she loves so this was a test!) We all sat around the table at home to try everything, and let me tell you it was a hit across the board. The croissant sandwich? Chef's kiss. Flaky, buttery croissant with perfectly cooked eggs, crispy bacon, melty cheese, creamy avocado, and just the right kick from the jalapeños. Every bite was balanced no one flavor overpowering the other. The vanilla iced coffee was smooth, creamy, and not overly sweet. You can probably request a stronger coffee flavor if that's your thing. The orange juice tasted like it came straight from the grove fresh, perfectly sweet and no added sugar. My mom loved her Thai iced tea, which says a lot because she rarely finds one that meets her standard. And those donuts? Now I get what my brother meant. They're soft, not dry or doughy like some places. Just perfect. Service: The vibe here is so warm and welcoming. When I mentioned my brother had been coming in, they immediately knew who I was talking about! The staff is super friendly and genuinely kind. I've even stopped by on another day and saw how sweet they were to the kids coming in after school talking to them like family. That kind of kindness stands out. They also offer chips, drinks, and quick snacks great for students since there's a school nearby. It's definitely a neighborhood spot that deserves more love. So next time you're getting off the freeway near El Segundo and craving a donut, iced coffee, or fresh juice don't just drive by like I used to. Stop in and support a local gem. Christy's might just become your go-to, too.

    Pastrami sandwich should be more called a vegetable sandwich. You can see the meat in it. Very disappointing for $12 would not recommend.

    I ordered the pastrami sandwich and the overall taste was OK. People are friendly but as an old commercial say where the beef as you can see in the picture for sandwich that was almost $12 I got bread lettuce, tomato, onion, and jalapeño very very little pastrami, I thought for a little donut and sandwich shop at that price. There would be a little more. The service was pretty fast and it is a very small business on the inside very hot. I was just very disappointed.

    Excellent service and yummy donuts! A great family shop. Highly recommend! Donuts are very good.

    Love this ma & pa shop. Donuts hit the spot. It's nothing fancy, just normal donuts and croissants. I love the jalapeño ham & cheese croissant and cake donuts!

    Jalapeno Ham & Cheese Croissant
    Angela H.

    Jalapeno Ham & Cheese Croissant!!! These are the best ever and from a donut shop. It's been sooooo long since I've had these and they still tastes the best. It's has the perfect amount of cheese, ham and jalapeno spice. Seriously super delicious and the BEST!

    Local doughnut shop having the best big fluffy donuts! Have your typical doughnut mix nothing too fancy and do made to order breakfast sandwiches!

    The first two days we stopped in, they were sold out. WHAT!!!??? Well technically they had one doughnut the first day and were basically closed, so they just gave it to my friend for free! Really cool gesture! Showed up the next day, sold out again! Showed up the third day, I got everyone out of bed earlier for a doughnut run and told them we can get ready later after we get back. Jackpot, a full selection of doughnuts. Got a cronut, apple fritter, and buttermilk. The buttermilk wasn't as good as I hoped, but the cronut and fritter were decadent! Everything was well priced (see my pic) and we were able to get doughnuts on our last day. We were staying nearby at the courtyard marriott and yelp review and curiosity helped steer us here. Stop by if you are in the neighborhood and if it is before 10:30 am.

    IMO Sidecar has the best fancy doughnuts in the South Bay. If you can't decide what to try, here…read moreare my recommendations. Huckelberry is a bit tangy and fruity. If you like blueberry donuts, get this one. Butter & Salt is the perfect sweet+salty donut with a brown butter glaze. Maple Bacon is one of the few raised yeast donuts and the sweet+savory combo is the best! The Apple Fritter is really good, but only available on Fridays. I highly recommend trying at least one of their seasonal donuts too. They are very unique and delicious. What I recently discovered is that their coffee is quite good and reasonably priced for the Manhattan Beach area. If you still can't decide what to purchase, the staff is always very nice and helpful. They always seem to be in a really good mood. The donuts are presented in nice, branded boxes if you purchase 3 or more. The store is located in the Manhattan Village, right near the entrance, so there is plenty of parking. Definitely check it out!

The flavors are great and really unique which i like. They have a seasonal weekly flavor and the service is always nice. It has plenty of parking and there's seating on the inside. I also really like how there are samples if you go in the morning which has persuaded me to try some new flavors I wouldn't have gotten. Yes its a bit pricey, but definitely worth it as the taste is amazing. My only feedback is on Too Good to Go orders. PLEASE allow there to be a separate non-meat/vegetarian option. Since if you order through the app, sometimes they may have a maple bacon donut which I don't eat meat so anything that donut is touching I also throw out which is a waste.

After I sat down, ate, and finished, I asked for my receipt -- and they said they couldn't print it anymore, even though it had only been a few minutes since the purchase. That's completely unacceptable. I also asked the person who made my croissant why there was only one thin slice of cheese and one thin slice of ham, and they told me it's because the owner instructs them to make it that way. That's ridiculous. For reference, I usually go to Yum Yum Donuts (Winchell's Donut House in Redondo Beach) -- a very similar type of shop, but their croissants are delicious, full, and generous. I always ask them to make mine fresh, not one of those pre-made ones sitting in the display. They cut the croissant, add the deli slices, and make it right there -- and it's always worth it. If they do this to 70 customers a day, that's $70 every single day, or about $2,100 a month. That's not a mistake -- that's stealing. I decided to try Wancho's for the first time today, and honestly... never again. This place needs to learn what honesty and quality mean. Customers deserve fair change and decent food, not to be shorted in both.
