It's a small inside with one table and a few high top tables. I got a bear claw for later and an everything bagel as well. I was really disappointed in the bagel. I would say it took about 10 minutes to get my bagel with cream cheese. I wouldn't actually mind if the bagel was really good. I was a bit disappointed in it because it tasted like a store bought packaged bagel. The bear claw was decent. I didn't realize it was a filled with apple filling. That was ok I just didn't know. I do not see me coming back but the donuts did look good all in all.

One of the stops was Mary's donuts in Santee. I had originally asked if they had plain donuts and she said no with a rude tone. I kept my composure and said okay. I selected the glazed old fashioned to replace the plain donuts she said they did not have. This woman was an older woman behind the counter . Right after she told me that, a younger girl also was working there but she was on the sales floor, and I have no idea what she was doing but she said check in the back there and that she saw plain donuts. So, the woman goes to get the plain donuts and I also told her I needed the crumb donut holes. She said what loudly since she didn't hear me. But instead of loudly saying what why wouldn't you ask a customer can you please repeat what you said . Is that asking too much to have manners when dealing with customers? I don't think so. I was taught to have manners and I always hope if you go to a business to spend money the workers will be grateful and nice. Well, this was not the treatment received today. So,she puts the doughnuts in the bags, one bad for the regular plain ones and the other bag for the donut holes . I decide to have a few of the donut holes, but when I looked in my bag they were glazed donut holes and not the crumb that I had asked for two times while she said what to me instead of excuse me can you repeat it. I was so darn upset, I walked out! I will never be coming back to the Santee location again. This treatment was unacceptable! She is not representing Mary's donuts in a way the owner, Mary would be proud . In a competitive world of donuts, I can go anywhere but had chosen this place. I will go elsewhere next time.

If you ever had a 1AM "I NEED a donut" moment... just know I absolutely acted on mine…read more So yes -- I pulled up to Honey Donuts in Santee because when the craving hits, it HITS. And since they're open 24 hours, I knew I had a good chance of getting something fresh. Let me tell you what I grabbed: Glazed donut Bear claw Sinclair donut BABY... when I tell you these donuts were hitting?! The glazed didn't even make it home. Not even out the parking lot good. You know how sometimes you bite into a donut and it's just... air? Dry? No substance? Not here. These were hearty but still light, fresh without being greasy, and that glaze? Soft and perfectly sweet -- not that dry, crackly, fall-off-in-your-lap situation. Just melt-in-your-mouth goodness. And that bear claw? Stuffed and substantial. They are not skimping on anything over here. The donuts are a really good size too. At $1.75 for regular donuts and $3.00 for the large fancy ones, it's honestly a steal. Now let's talk service. Peter is SO sweet. Great customer service, patient, and he'll happily explain the donuts, ingredients, and menu if you have questions. That kind of hospitality at 1AM? Top tier. I'll be honest -- I'm normally a Sunny Donut girlie... but "Honey Donuts" just took them down and took the crown. If you're ever in Santee and you want fresh, affordable, legit GOOD donuts any time of day (or night), give them a try. You won't regret it. Thank me later. You're welcome.
