I've been coming to College Coffee and Donuts since as long as I can remember. I grew up in Bakersfield and this donut shop became my standard for donuts. I've visited donut shops across the country, and to be honest, I've never found ones as fresh and as good as these. For example, anywhere else is so skimpy with the jelly in the jelly donut. Don't worry if you come here, the whole center is a giant glob of jelly. Also make sure to have the mega chocolate twist. It has chocolate swirl inside with chocolate frosting and chocolate chips, and it is amazing. America may run on Dunkin, but not me, I'm enlightened. Way to go College Coffee and Donuts, you did it. Congratulations, you are the best there is and ever will be till the end of time. And it is at that time, at the end, that you will be raised up. You will be raised to one of the highest circles of heaven for the flavors you entice me with daily. And you will rain FIRE and THUNDER on all other donut shops that dare to claim your magnificence and your glory. You are a mighty shop, and your sugar bombs shall never be undervalued ever again. read more

Yummy doughnuts. Many options on the menu! From sweet treats to pastries to cookies, there is something for everyone. A cute small shop. Very clean and staff are helpful. Got a free doughnut with my purchase :) read more

College Coffee & Donuts - Donuts Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Nice folks who are ALWAYS OUT OF STUFF. Get your act together, College Donuts. I'm sick of walking into your establishment hoping to order something only to be told you're out. This morning it was polish sausage and Thai tea. For months it was espresso, period. It has happened A LOT. If you can't maintain such a large menu, you need to simplify. You need to do better if you want to keep customers. read more

I ordered a half dozen donuts through DoorDash and 3 of them were substituted for other varieties or flavors because the ones I requested were unavailable. Which is totally fine. The issue was the quality. The items that were substituted tasted old and stale. I was very disappointed in the mochi donut which was supposed to be light and chewy but was incredibly tough and doughy. I don't think I will be trying them again in the future. read more

All the hype about the Vietnamese coffee was not worth it. I was disappointed. I got two and 2 donuts and I thought it was over priced. But the server was kind.. read more

Donuts were delicious and the coffee was yummy too. Customer service was good. They offer lots of options. It was quiet and spacious. We did have like a 5 minute wait time since there were customers ahead of us. Have been back several times and will go back. read more

The service was amazing, the Vietnamese coffee was the perfect sweetness if you don't like a overload of sugar. The chocolate bar and crème stuff donuts were so soft and fluffy. Not too sweet. They have savory options as well, definitely coming back read more

Pretty big menu for a doughnut shop. Pleasant service and good Vietnamese iced coffee. That's all I wanted, so didn't try the doughnuts. read more

They don't have an expresso machine and they don't have boba. I ordered a coconut iced coffee and they gave me a coconut smoothie - with no coffee! Also had a cake donut, that was very greasy and just not very good. read more

Owner is always smiling when she sees us. My favorite is the honey dew with almond and whipped cream.

I was surprised I had not done a review before. I try to sty away because I really like their donuts. Today, i caved and went in aftergrocery shopping, and I was pleased they have mochi donuts. The mochi is pleasantly airy and chewy. Their prices have gone up but so has everyone else's prices. The other purchase was filled chocolate. read more

I Love eating donuts. I usually enjoy all kinds of donuts. I am not a big fan of Mochi donuts though. I find them to be too chewy and gooey. Still, when I saw that College Coffee & Donuts had a bunch of them....I just had to try one. I bought one Taro Mochi donut. It was not chewy, but I did not taste any taro flavor either. Despite the lack of taro flavor, I liked the taste and texture of this Mochi donut. 4 stars! Bought two other donuts as well. A Banana flavored cake donut and a Boston Creme donut. Not everyday that you find a banana flavored donut. I did not really taste the banana, but I liked the cake donut. So 4 stars for this donut too. The Boston Creme donut tasted good. The lack of custard inside the donut results in a 3.5 star rating from me. Overall, I think this donut shop is pretty darn cool. I really like the assortment of donuts they make. There were so many different kinds of donuts available. Many flavors that I've never seen anywhere else at Bakersfield donut shops. They have something for everyone here. Check them out folks. read more

This review is just for the mochi donuts. Since im a mochi donut fan and have tasted several brand of mochi donuts, made some at home as well-the flavors/glaze tastes ok except the taro but it definitely lack the chewiness/gooeyness that makes a good mochi donut- and, its a lil dry too. read more

College Coffee & Donuts - a box of assorted donuts - Donuts Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Friendly staff, great selection and delicious! I don't get in the mood for donuts often but a couple weeks ago I was doing training at work that started at 6am and being up so early made me want a donut. I hit up College a couple times that week and tried a few donuts from the selection. The New York Apple is freakin delicious and their custard filled (my personal favorite) has a ton of filling, more than the average donut place. Very happy with the price, quality, and friendliness I experienced. Definitely a must stop for your donut cravings. read more

This used to be my favorite place until the yesterday . I grabbed a box of sugar cookies and headed out. I got home and those things were hard as a rock. Most likely have been sitting out for a few days. I was so disappointed. read more

The mochi donuts are my absolute favorite. This is the first place that I've tried them. I did drive directly across town a couple times following to satisfy a craving for them so.. beware. read more

Fairly new to the area, admit discovered this place thru yelp review. Hoping to find a special donut place that also carry some good coffee. From outside it did appear to be popular w folks going in and out. When I approached the counter, and I asked for a dozen donuts consist of doubling up of 6 of their most popular donuts. He asked me again how I want them which I replied even more clearly. Yes he was confused and just randomly put 12 assorted donuts. Whatever, at that point And the coffee was ordinary. The price came out $27,, what?? Enough said. read more

Staff was very friendly and provided quick service. The doughnuts and croissants were DELICIOUS. The establishment was very clean and welcoming. read more

Walked in and it was empty ( typically whenever I do it is). Which I think is crazy because every time I have their donuts they are delicious. This time I tried the mochi donuts. Love the texture of them. Very airy and perfect amount of chewy. The icings are good as well. Perfect addition to my breakfast sandwich (not pictured or bought here). I went around 12 and they were already almost all gone. The service is always good and straight to the point. Definitely recommend! read more

I don't think many people know about this coffee and donut spot but they should because it is very good. I've had their donuts and donut holes which are very good. They have their own version of a kronut and it's pretty decent but it was a little dry. Their smoothie drinks with boba are delicious my favorite is mango! They also have a smoothie bar section where you can select what to add to your smoothie including fresh fruits read more

A big group of us walked in to this donut shop and we waited there for more than 10 minutes and We never received any service. Possibly the shop should be closed. The staff does not really want to work at this Donut shop from what we could see. read more

It's been a while since I've stopped by for my cream cheese, ham and jalapeño croissant. They were the best! Until today. Now they are filled with cheap yellow cheese that doesn't even melt and it's chunky when you bite into it. Also, they are very expensive now, $5 each. Not worth buying them. Not good enough for $5. We will not be buying these again. read more

This review is for their second location on 5330 Olive Drive, College Smoothies and Donuts. I went in with my husband Saturday afternoon and there was a good selection available. We saw crossiants, square croissant donuts, cake, bars, some cute cookies, apple fritters, glazed, and so on. They have jelly filled, but we got the last raspberry. They also have donut holes, smoothies, coffees, and a fridge full of soda, iced tea, milk, etc. We took a dozen donut holes and 6 donuts home. The square croissant donut I picked was flakey with plenty of sweet cream cheese filling inside and a chocolate drizzle on the top. The raspberry filled donut and claw did not have as much filling, but were fluffy and soft. The chocolate buttermilk bar was fresh as well. They had special flavored cake donuts like banana bread and red velvet cake, as well. The donuts are individually priced around $1.99-$2.99 each, but they do throw in another donut and take $2 off the price when you buy a dozen. I'm happy to have a new donut place in the NW that has so many choices and are fresh. read more

The Mochi donuts were yummy and the boba was good too, perfectly blended. The girl helping us was very sweet and made all the drinks promptly. Some of the reviews were saying the Mochi donuts are pricey and maybe they are but I've bought them in Las Vegas and Los Angeles before and all the prices are pretty consistent and run about the same whichever city you are in. read more

Me and my mom went today! The service was amazing. We ordered smoothies and a coffee. Will for sure order a monkey mocha again!

Great donuts ! I enjoyed the donut holes. The price was reasonable. I would recommend going.

There was not too big of a rush of patrons until immediately after we came in and placed our order, yay us. The service was good and the pastries were delicious. My spouse got the Vietnamese coffee and he says he enjoyed it. I recommend stopping by and trying it for yourself. read more

Great donuts but pizza place next door forgot the name but got me sick and the sauce was brown do not recommend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everything at the pizza place was dry and got me sick i ate at both of them but donuts tasted good not pizza read more

this place bussin mochi donuts are absolutely scrumpdiddlyumtippityumtious and makes me want to lay on the ground and hiss at anyone who comes near me the boba is mega squishy and the drink tastes like freshly juiced fairy essence-but it's good...very good. it had me craving boba for months definitely would recommend 100000/10 if you don't go here you're depriving yourself of a once in a lifetime opportunity for a round trip to heaven. if you're reading this you better head over to the bank, empty all your accounts and get over to college coffee and donuts. then spend every single penny you have on every donut, drink, and pastry and tip anything you got leftover. that's not a request that's a direct order. now hop to it you won't regret it read more

They have the best donuts. So much better than the ones I had from Dunkin' Donuts the other day. So now I know I don't have to go anywhere else for my don't fix. Thank you read more

I came in here looking for my Boba fix on a random Friday afternoon. After walking in I was immediately greeted by a very helpful employee. It's always great when the people working at an establishment you visit seem to enjoy their work. I had a few questions about the boba and the types of tea they have. They have Thai tea, taro tea, and green tea. Sold. Sold. I went for the Thai tea frappe with boba included. One note I have is that the boba at this establishment is slightly larger than those at other establishments. Extra chewy as well. I was satisfied with the tea and I will come again. This establishment is recommended for their boba drinks. I will return to visit for the donuts soon. read more

Always a good and smooth visit although I should come more often. The maple bacon bar was the best out of everywhere I've been and the iced caramel latte I got wasn't too strong or bitter it was BOMB. Thank you again read more

I came here for the smoothie bar. Great service, but all the fruit just looked old and sad. Tasted fine, just a basic simple smoothie but I liked being able to customize exactly the amount of fruits and kale. read more

The donuts are good but overpriced. The customer service is terrible. I've been there a handful of times and left feeling not good about the entire experience. The men that work there are very rude and dismissive. Won't be going back there read more

I have passed College Coffee and Donuts many times but never had an opportunity to stop by. Since I work at Starbucks and we are currently in the midst of Frappuccino Happy Hour, I wanted to show my coworkers that I appreciate them with some delicious doughnuts! I came in this morning at around 9am and I was shocked to see that they had a full case of doughnuts ready for the taking. I quickly told the friendly girl behind the counter that I wanted to purchase a dozen doughnuts and a few other items. They had a great selection: huge bear claws, giant doughnuts that looked like glazed cinnamon rolls without the icing, maple bars, cake doughnuts, cream or jelly filled, glazed with icing, crullers, doughnut holes, etc! They had it all. I also purchased a ham, cheese, and jalapeño croissant. It was huge! They also had sausage croissants. I'm gonna have to get one next time. They also sell smoothies and coffee here, but I was so distracted by the delicious doughnuts that I didn't even think to take a look at what else they have to offer. I will definitely have to visit again. The staff was friendly and their doughnuts are absolutely delicious. read more

I ordered a Boba latte (caramel). The shop was clean and I received friendly service. The boba was very fresh. Tasted like it was made minutes before it was put in my drink. The mochi donut was delicious and tasted fresh as well. There were a lot of options available for food items. I've had the donuts quite a bit (always brought in at work by coworkers). They are always fresh and delicious. I would return here on a weekend/weekday for coffee or treats on my own. read more

I was already upset that 3 donuts came up to $10 but when I get home and the chocolate & pink tastes like pure sugar with no chocolate flavoring I was really upset. Also super dry the dough is terrible. So over priced no flavor except sugar super sweet why have variety of donuts if they're all going to taste the same. Also tent don't sell dozens weird places go somewhere else read more

Amazing customer service from Hannah! She was so sweet and made the perfect smoothies for my co workers and I. I will always come back to this coffee and donut shop. read more
