    Get there early because they sell out quick! All the donuts are delicious but I very much enjoyed and recommend the apple fritter, pineapple fritter and cinnamon roll! They are enormous and either take days to finish it you can be nice and share. They are fresh and flavor is perfect. The sandwiches are also very good and made fresh. Great to take down to the lake or on the boat. The place itself has tables outside, plenty of parking and a cute mini golf area.

    Dank DONUTS oh my gosh I can't even begin to explain how cool and interesting this place is. The staff was super friendly and gave us recommendations on what to try so we decided to go with the Apple critter donut. Hands down the best tasting donut we've had especially since we're from out of town. They also have donuts for dogs which I got my dog one and he loved it. If I could recommend anything I would say forsure the apple critter and the mini donuts as well. I got an iced matcha which I will say is on the sweeter side but still delicious. 5 stars from me !

    Great experience at Dank Donuts. Enjoyed the place's ambiance. Had great Christmas music, hospitable & helpful service and I liked looking at the decorations. The Rueben exceeded expectations. Wanted more with every bite.

    Oh Dank Donuts where have you been all my life?This gnarly donut shop boasts the highest elevation in California, creates some of the most delicious and freshest donuts I've ever had the privileged of tasting, and also hosts adult beverages and scrumptious sandwiches. Nestled up high by the slopes of Big Bear is this awesome place that seemingly all the cool kids know about. Luckily my family and I stumbled upon it while out for a walk and just had to stop. Fried dough with sweet glazes make my heart go pitter patter, and Dank did not disappoint. Over the course of 14 days we tried all they had to offer and everything we had was delicious. My favorites were the chocolate long John, giant apple fritter, and veggie sandwich. The service was always friendly and quick, so they do a lot of business with ease. The inside is very small, so it's a squeeze if they are busy, but the outside has plenty of tables to sit and enjoy the gorgeous Big Bear mountains. They have fun coin rides for the kids which kept my little ones busy and happy so we got a few extra minutes to relax. Big Bear has amazing donut game and Dank Donuts does a wonderful job of standing out amidst the crowd to offer unique and fresh tastes and at atmosphere that goes above and beyond your typical donut shop.

    I paid $5.45 for 5 donuts. One of which was a cinnamon roll that was bigger than my head. If you have a sweet tooth for donuts, this is your best bet in big bear. Everything was very good and affordable. I believe I was there during happy hour (4-5pm daily). I think the happy hour is $0.50/donuts during happy hour. The staff were also helpful when I had a question about online ordering (you need to call to order ahead).

    Vegan sprinkle donut and dirty ish chai

    Dog donut

    We spent the weekend in big bear just to get away for a few days with our dogs. We decided to get dank donuts, we got a donut for the pups to share and a few for ourselves. We ordered off door dash so I had no idea how big the apple fritter was! HUGE! so good. I love a blueberry donut and this is by far the best blueberry donut I have ever had! It was so soft. So many places say they make their donuts fresh. And I'm sure they do but Dank donuts really taste and FEEL fresh. Even having the chocolate bar a day later it was still amazing! Whatever their recipe for dough is DONT CHANGE IT! love this place. We'll be coming back any time we're in big bear !

    Blueberry Cake
    Nayomi C.

    Tried this donut spot today, it was delicious! Hot chocolate was hot but not extremely hot that it burned my tongue. The service was quick, employees were very friendly. The ambiance was nice and welcoming, even though it was really cold, I wanted to sit down outside to eat my donuts. The blueberry cake is a popular one and now I know why, it's super delicious, a bit crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I paid $20 in total for two hot chocolates, one blueberry cake donut, one long John, and 6 donut holes (these are about $2.60 ish for 6). Overall really good, I will be coming back!

    Boston cream donut
    Maegan L.

    Solid donut, tried the Boston cream one and it was not too sweet! Good balance of fluffy donut and filling. Dark chocolate glaze was yummy!

    Are the gluten free donuts vegan?

    Anything vegans and gluten free?

    Yes!! A few vegan options when we were last there. Not sure about GF though! And the vegan donuts are very reasonably priced, less than $5 each.

    Hi! Do your gluten free vegan donuts have soy in them? I have a soy allergy :)

    Yes I'm sorry. They do contain soy.

    Is the free wifi reliable for getting work done on the patio?

    Yes! We have wifi for customers... It's sort of like if you were in an airport or hotel... You type in your email address in the browser and have free Wi-Fi when you are at Dank Donuts!

    Any gluten free?

    Yes! They are baked and mini, but still great!

Even though some local Hawaiians have bashed this place, I don't think Tropicali is trying to be a mainland "poke salad bar." They understand what real poke is: marinated fish and rice. That said, they don't really have the traditional Hawaiian poke flavors, except for the Pele Bowl, which has a shoyu-based spicy mayo and wasabi flavor. I got the Cabo Bowl, which tasted like a mix of spicy mayo and Mexican-style spicy ceviche. It was definitely different, but still good. Personally, I prefer traditional Hawaii poke flavors, but I can understand why Tropicali is ranked so highly on Yelp. They have a great sense of aloha, and their poke is legitimate than what you usually find at most mainland poke spots.

I ordered the KRAKATOA- salmon with spicy ahi and it was delicious! So fresh and clean and reminded me of being back home even though it was Big Bear. Also the island style cold brew was to die for! It has coco mac but which made the cold brew so good.. trust me give it a try if you love cold brews like me. This is a must try if you're in Big Bear, you won't get disappointed!!!

Very disappointing experience. Edit in response to the owner: I don't believe it's rude to ask about my drink after waiting what felt like an unreasonable amount of time. I think most people would understand feeling frustrated by a long wait. That said, even if the wait time hadn't been an issue, seeing an employee brushing their teeth in the same area where food and drinks are prepared was extremely off-putting. I found it unhygienic and frankly unacceptable. That, combined with the poor service experience, is why I ultimately felt compelled to leave this review.
