Stopped in at the locksmith next door and grabbed some glazed donut holes and an orange delicious French cruler. Was excellent as was their selection at 10:30 in the day. Nice lady working there. read more

The word den is interesting because it either refers to where a wild animal lives like a lair or it can be a secret room to retreat to. Perhaps their name means a place to retreat and get donuts. Location is in a strip mall on the side of where Ross is on PCH in Torrance. Lots of parking on a Saturday afternoon. I had just stopped by off and on after shopping at Ross. Made a quick stop to purchase donuts holes or a donut for someone else or purchase very occasion donuts for the hubby and myself. On a recent visit, purchased a glazed old fashioned and a plain donut. Split them with the hubby and both were good! As for the other donuts in the glass case, they had basic flavors. No specialty donuts. They also have savory options such as bagels and sandwiches. Overall the experiences at Donut Den have been A-OK. read more

Good donut place! We ordered a glaze twist donut and a chocolate donut that we took to-go to eat at the beach. It tasted yummy and the staff were very kind and patient with us because we were overwhelmed with so many different flavors! read more

Love this place. I've been periodically coming to this donut shop since I was in middle school and I have no complaints. The service is always great. Donuts are great and fairly priced. Even their smoothies and Boba tea here is good! I think they have a pretty good selection of donuts, including cakedonuts, sprinkle, twisted donuts, old-fashioned donuts, and just regular chocolate or glazed donuts, etc. read more

Donut Den - Donuts Near Me - Torrance, California

Was in H Market across the street when we had a sudden craving for donuts and happen to see this. A bit worn and dingy but we were willing to try it....and like the physical store itself there isn't much to rave about - though there's a lot of variety in their donuts it wasn't really that good - even the only person serving in the store didn't feel enthusiastic about their product. Because it isn't really that good.... You can skip it. read more

Old school mom and pop donut shop. It's a staple in south Torrance for a reason. Very friendly owners. Priced well. Come here early and you'll find old timers occupying a both and catching up on life. Come before the school bell and you'll find teenagers meeting up for a donut and shenanigans They play the classics and keep it simple. The blueberry cake donut is a sleeper. The warmed up ham and cheese croissants hit the spot. Coffee is serviceable. Great spot to grab a dozen or quick pick me up in the morning. read more

Donuts are good. Coffee is good most of the time. Staff is friendly. Parking is plentiful.

First time here today despite all the bad reviews I read. And you know I should have listened. Everything i ordered was nasty. I got donut holes and a ham and cheese I couldnt even finish it. Wish I could have returned it for my money back. read more

Very good donuts coffee and customer service but lost lots of stars for their illegal. 50 surcharge for credit cards. Yes legally a restaurant or bar may charge in California but they must have the notice conspicuously posted which they don't making it an illegal surcharge. read more

Yum! Friendly service. Lots of options from donuts, cinnamon rolls, cronuts and event mochi donuts. Plenty of parking. All of the donuts were yummy! They were a hit with the family read more

They overcharged me. Donut holes were not that good. I'm very disappointed and do not recommend this shop.

We usually go to Randy's Donuts because they're good and consistent. But we had errands to run near Donut Den so we stopped in to get a half dozen. What a disappointment. I've been here before a few years ago and I don't remember the donuts being so lame. The guy was hard to understand and wasn't very friendly. I asked if the Fritters were crispy, and he just picked one up with the tongs and showed it to me. I said okay I'll have one in addition to a few different ones. It was not crispy and the chocolate buttermilk was kinda pasty inside. The lemon-filled that my wife got only had a tiny squirt of filling. Overall a fail and we won't be returning. read more

Average donuts for a premium price. Might as well go to Randy's and pay a few bucks more for a dozen. Fast service though

My daughter asked for fruity pebbles donuts for her birthday party school. Visited the den day before her birthday and placed a special order. Wow those donuts were huge, crispy pebbles and tasty! They also have great cronuts. read more

Donut Den - Special order of fruity people's donuts - Donuts Near Me - Torrance, California

Review #236] Donut Den has been bookmarked for awhile now... I think it's because of their themed donuts for the holidays such as Valentine's, Halloween, Christmas, etc. My son got the dreaded HFM disease from daycare so he's a bit fussy & has trouble eating due to the mouth sores. Donut Den to the rescue (at least I was hoping)! The shop is located in the same plaza as Ross Dress for Less, so there's plenty of open parking spaces. :-) When you check-in on Yelp, you can redeem a free donut without making a purchase; however, it's only available Mondays-Wednesdays. Though it says 1 free sample of my choice, the guy gave me a Glazed Donut (I wanted a different one for my freebie) & was trying to hurry me along (his body language was agitated) as there are customers piling in. Luckily. I previewed DD's pics earlier so I quickly ordered my 1/2 dozen: Cronut, Cinnamon Roll, Sprinkles Cake, Orange Cake, Apple-Filled Crumb, & French Cruller. No creatively decorated donuts on this Wednesday morning. M didn't have much of a breakfast so I thought the donuts could whet his appetite for lunch (& they did). The cinnamon roll was fluffy & pillow-light, & filled will cinnamon goodness; there were heavy streaks of cinnamon spice throughout the roll, & it was still mildly warm. The surprise was the Crumb Donut! :-O =) At least that was what it looked like until you take a bite, then you get a taste of this oozing apple pie-like filling. WOW! M kept begging for more so I portioned out the Apple-Filled Crumb Donut with a fruit & veggie smoothie for his lunch; it helped him drink/finish his lunch. ;-) I took a small bite of DD's version of a cronut (still haven't tried the real thing yet, but it'll be easier now that Chef Ansel has a L.A. location)... it was simply made, cinnamon sugar, without any filling. While it was somewhat flaky & crispy, but it was very greasy; I can't imagine if the taste & texture will hold up a few hours later. I'm a bit disappointed since the other 2 were executed well. No matter, I found my favs & will definitely be back for more since I regularly shop across the street at Sprouts. Is that a good thing or bad? Hehehe... ;-) read more

09.14.2021 Purchased doughnuts at 7am. These are a poor excuse of a doughnut store. When you step in take a nice glance at the glazed doughnut. You'll notice they don't glaze the entire doughnut. Seems to me they had a off day, but could be they're overall cheap. Who knows. I definitely won't be going back. I recommend trying Vickie's Donuts on ep Segundo and prairie. You won't regret it. read more

Ok it was my first time here and the lady who I'm guessing owns the shop was so friendly and sweet. I told her it my first time and she gave me an extra free doughnut. They are fresh and delicious. This breakfast sandwhich was also made quickly and super tasty for price. read more

Donut Den - Breakfast croissant sandwich - Donuts Near Me - Torrance, California

I visited on Sunday 7/30 @0945. I paid $9 for 4 donuts. 2 glazed cronuts, 1 chocolate round, and 1 chocolate twist. Also, I paid with cash to avoid their card fees. Yikes. This was my neighborhood go-to donut shop but with these inflated prices, I'd rather get a better & bigger donut down the street at Randy's. I will no longer be going here. read more

Subpar. The customer service is terrible! The guy who's always there isn't friendly and always seems to be annoyed. He will sometimes ignore your questions which I find odd. The Thai tea is watery and the boba comes out of a container from the fridge. They run water over it really quickly and put it in your drink. Yes it's as bad as it sounds. I wasn't expecting boba shop quality but I wasn't expecting that either. The taro smoothie was okay but I've had better. The donuts are pretty average. I've had the ham and cheese croissant and it was alright. The croissant could be better. I've had a few other donuts but they're nothing to remember. This place would get 3 stars for average donuts but the customer service brings it down a star. I don't shop where I feel like my business isn't valued. Next! read more

Donut Den - Why only one side though? Boba was bad, they ran water over it really fast. Drink was okay - Donuts Near Me - Torrance, California

If you're tired of the same ol' glutenous donuts that make you feel very fat, full and/or unhealthy, you need to come down to Donut Den! Today, I finally tried it for the first time and damn...it's GREAT! The difference between this donut place and every other local and Winchell's donut places around here is the fact that these donuts are so un-greasy, it's like you're biting into a toasted hawaiian bread dough style donut or something. That's how toasty and smooth these donuts are! They are as fluffy as the inside of a croissant! Seriously, if you've been to Korea or Europe and have tasted the DUNKIN DONUTS in any of those places, that is what I compare Den's Donuts to when it comes to the quality and taste! TIP: Don't be surprised if this place is "closed" all of a sudden, it has weird schedules, but at least it's near Redondo Beach and a Ross!? Trust me, if you want a really great alternative donut to Krispy Kreme, Winchell's and your regular local donut shops, Donut Den is the perfect place to hit up! read more

Donut Den - view from INSIDE of my donut bag! - Donuts Near Me - Torrance, California

This shop is your typical donut shop I've been going for years, but as of lately the quality of the donuts are not as good... my usual order is 6 donuts for the family... it just seems like every time the price is always different for the same 6 donuts!!! Also my donut was old and stale! Very disappointed! Will be looking for a new go to spot. read more

Good doughnuts in Torrance area. I work a nightshift in the Redondo Beach/Torrance area and stop by here on Saturday or Sunday morning at around 7:15am for a dozen doughnuts. Usually there are a couple people in line. And some people, probably regulars, sitting and having coffee inside. The service is friendly and most important, the doughnuts are good. Not chewy or dense, but just right. I usually get the traditional regular glazed, glazed with chocolate, twists, old fashioned, and jelly filled. I've never experienced bad service here and I've been stopping by for the last 2 years on weekend mornings. They greet and say hello and have never been rude to me. read more

Oof. It's not good. Technique is poorly executed and donuts aren't fresh. Croissants are bloated like they were not folded enough times and the dough was not chilled before heading into the oven. Glazes are over-sugared and lacking flavor despite how sweet. Texture of the old fashioned is mushy. I wouldn't go again, but as a testament to how affordable the place is there were two homeless gentlemen placing orders and purchasing lotto's while I was there, so if your only criteria is a cheap donut regardless of quality, this is the spot for you. read more

Good, average donuts. If you're in the area, its a solid option. Nothing stands out, but it will address your belly expansion requirements.

I just moved to Cali recently and was really surprised at the donut culture here! I plan on trying as many donut shops as possible! Donut Den was first on my list! I went today around 9a. I was the only one in the shop and the man (I'm assuming the owner) greeted me and asked what I wanted. I got a baker's dozen, a breakfast sandwich and a coffee. Coffee is on the weaker side which I don't mind, but for anyone trying to get punched in the face with a dose of caffeine, it won't be from this cup. Once I got home, I took a bite of each donut. Literally. I must say, I'm very impressed! The donuts are light, airy and fluffy without coating your mouth with oil! I think I'm in love. I can't even choose a favorite because they're all so good! The raspberry-filled had a lot of filling in it too compared to other places I've tried. The chocolate frosting is also sooooo good too! Melts in your mouth. The cronuts, I've had better but they're def not bad. I think I'll stick with the regular donuts next time. Worth a try if you've never had a cronut before though. Highly recommend! Oh before I forget. I read other reviews in regards to the mask situation. When I was there, everyone working had a mask on. And everyone coming through the door had a mask on. read more

Standing there for 5 minutes no one shows I say customer and no show. I guess they are to busy on their cell phone to deal with paying customers!!! read more

I like their donuts, but here's why I gave only 3 stars: I've bought donuts from here 3 times. 2 out of 3 times, I was overcharged. The first time, I figured they made an honest mistake. Today, I asked for a dozen donuts ($12). At the registered, I was told $13.50! I asked if the prices went up. She said "no, I gave you 13 donuts!" Which is fine...I can always use an extra donut at work. I got to work, opened the box, there were 12 donuts in there!!! Some other donut shops sometimes give you something extra; a donut hole, or even a full donut, to have you keep coming. Donut Den, for the second time, overcharged me!!! Sorry...No more! read more

This donut shop is one of my favorites-not only because the donuts are good-but the people serving them to you. And the fact that it is a family owned business as well, dope. If you have not tried the donuts here. Do. Because they are what some people say "fuego". Delicious, Donut Den you have served well. 5 Stars. : ) read more

Haven't been here for a while. Stopped by today, was in the area. Got 1/2 dozen donuts containing an Apple fritter. The fritter was for my mom. She's really picky but was very pleased with the apple fritter. I had a traditional glazed donut and ohhhhh soooo soft and read more

Donut Den - Apple fritter, glazed, sugar twist, nut covered donut, milk(hidden under twist), glazed cruller - Donuts Near Me - Torrance, California

I'm not sure about how "healthy" this donut is. I believe they make them the traditional frying way but without trans fats which is great that they don't use trans fats and you can actually really taste the difference between this shop and others' donuts(esp in the crumb cake donut). The donut were pretty darn good even though I stop by at 1:30pm. Will be back in the morning to check out all the other yummy flavors. read more

These are the beat donuts in this area! We've tried 5 other donut shops and these are by far the best. Don't miss the buttermilk glazed and the apple-filled crumb! They are fresh cooked apples in the filling--not some canned mush. Really great quality--light texture, not oily at all and clearly made with care! read more

My son and I go here on a regular basis, it's kind of our ritual. Love the donuts, even though I'm generally not a donut eater. The cro-nuts are especially good. They also sell boba which I've tried and is good. Staff is very nice and friendly and it's close to home. read more

Simple old school donut shop with excellent donuts, fair prices and great service. The Apple fritter was amazing, so crunchy and full of flavor, free donut with check in, a plain glazed which still tasted soft and fresh the next day, loved it. Plenty of easy parking, much better than expected, worth checking out. read more

Wowzers! The cronut was amazing! We should've gotten more. The coconut donut was super good too! What a good and bad sugar-loading! Staff was nice. I would go back for more. read more

I keep hearing this is the best, and the sign outside says it was voted Best of the South Bay. But they are out of stock every time I go, and the selection is very, very bad. Yesterday at 10:30 AM the selection was so bad I was embarrased for them. The guy behind the counter should have closed shop. Just odd. What, you can't afford the electric bill to fry more dough-freekin-nuts? Once I was there at 9AM on a Sunday, and same thing: No Goods. Don't tell me you are so popular you can't keep stock. Two words: Bake More. Or fry, whatever the case may be. read more

I like this place. The donuts are fresh, not too heavy, and taste really good. It's a family owned business with Dad, Mom, and the kids taking care of customers every morning. They are extremely nice and warm people, and I enjoy giving them my business. I would go here every morning if I could, but since it gets dark early this time of year I can't go running as much as I'd like to and I'd blow up if I ate donuts every day. Give this place a try; you'll like it. One piece of advice: it's a hassle to turn into the parking lot from the turn lane headed eastbound on PCH, at least on weekday mornings where there's a ton of traffic headed towards South High. read more

Left for work earlier than usual so I could make an out of the way stop here. I just had to buy a few more for my son and hubby to try. I tried the apple fritter and it's absolutely delish. I finished it before I even started on my coffee! I'm ashamed to admit this but this is to attest how great these donuts are...the chocolate one didnt make it to my son, before I knew it, I scarfed that down too. In comparison to the donuts that my office mates bring in, those are very greasy. Please note by 10 am, the apple fritters are long gone. If you're in the Torrance/Redondo area, give this place a try! read more

I just found my new favorite donut spot. They have the cheapest donut holes ever so I bought a dozen! I also had the vanilla sprinkle donut and the chocolate sprinkle donut. Delicious. My favorite was their ham, egg and bacon croissant. It tasted absolutely amazing! They didn't have much variety of donuts when I came in but their donuts are very satisfying. I'm craving more donuts as I write this review. Check this place out! read more

Got some donuts for the coworkers for national donit day.The old fashion is the best donut here. It's crispy on the outside, moist and dense in the inside. Come early for the best choices. Plenty of parking and definitely a lot of memories going here during middle school and high school. The newer owners are also nice. Try them out, they have boba drinks too although I haven't tried it myself. .25 for credit card use. A dozen is $9. read more
