    Sugar donut
    Isaac Z.

    A childhood spot of mine, the owner is always super sweet and includes extra donut holes whenever I go. Always gotten the same thing, a sugar donut, and it's always perfect. Love their donuts!

    Weekend evenings when I'm in the OC somehow always lead me to Donut Star, and honestly, I don't even have to ask myself why... Because their donuts are consistently good--like, dangerously good. The Bavarian cream, raspberry, and lemon-filled are basically my weekend therapy, and don't even get me started on the buttermilk glazed. Soft, sweet perfection that makes you forget about your diet, your problems, and the bad Chinese food you had for dinner lol Now, full disclosure: the evening lady behind the counter isn't exactly auditioning for Miss Congeniality. But hey--as long as the donuts keep tasting this heavenly, I'll keep showing up with a smile big enough for both of us. And if you happen to walk in right when the apple fritters are fresh out of the fryer? Forget sliced bread, forget world peace--THIS is the real miracle. Crispy, golden, sticky, gooey, everything you want in life wrapped up in one fritter. You'll wanna grab two, because the first one will disappear faster than your self-control lol - however, this was one of those 3 AM on my way home stops, just an FYI (and no--I am not a street walker lol) So yes, the smile-o-meter could use a little winding up, but who cares? The donuts do all the talking. And they're saying: "Come back tomorrow. And the next day. And the next."

    Happy  Easter

    I know I can always count on Donut Star for fresh donuts and a hot drink 24 hours a day/night! I enjoy their creativity with their seasonal donuts! They also may a variety of smoothies! The staff has always been so friendly.

    Open 24/7 and had been around forever. Standard donut shop, The maple bacon bar is generous with the bacon. I think its been the same lady here since I was in high school 20 years ago. She's nice. Very to the point. $3 for "a dozen" donut holes seems steep to me but I havent bought these in a few years so maybe I'm out of touch? But they tasted fine. Open 24/7!!!!

    She didn't even close my lid lol

    The female older employee is consistently rude for no reason I've been here for 2-3 years I've never had a problem with other employees. Today she told me light ice was a dollar extra for my iced coffee Dollar extra when you're gay and mind your business.

    Walked in last night around 12am and immediately starred this location and added it to my maps under "24hr good donuts". Service was fantastic, I asked her opinion on different donuts and we shared a laugh over a flavor we had differing opinions on. The store was clean, staff was friendly, and treats were delicious. Priced very reasonably as well, four donuts and a croissant for $10! Will be coming back for sure!

    I don't know when this donut star became THE DONUT STAR. I've been living in Placentia for roughly 12 years now and I have to say, this is by far the best mom and pop donut star. I don't know when the kids took over but I love the family ambience. I love the creativity that goes into every bite. I'm a first responder and have taken multiple of my work partners here all the way from east Los Angeles where we're based out of and not one single soul has rated this less then a 10/10. this place deserved more stars and more praise then it gets. Try their blueberry donut, their strawberry muffin. Their creative artistic creations and I guarantee this spot will have you coming for more. EVEN THERE COFFEES SLAP. literally what are you doing and go TRY THIS PLACE NOW.

    The fancy here is really nice and cute! DEFINITELY SHOULD STOP BY TO GET SOME

    The best donuts and muffins I ever tried in my life! If there are 10 stars, I would have given 10

    i love the donuts here !! it's super cute and the place is always so clean. Service is also fast and friendly ! 10/10

    Are they cash only?

    I believe they do cash and cards, no apple pay though.

    I came here initially to just purchase a lotto ticket, but when I stepped in, I was immediately…read moregreeted by a very friendly and professional male employee. I really love how hospitable he was and decided to try some of their items. The ambiance is very down to earth, chill, and typical like any donut shop you can think of. There is a lot more room than usual and they also have more food items than what I recall with other donut shops. I saw what seemed like a crepe rolled up pastry with different toppings on it and found out they call them "burrito", but is a dessert type. I got myself one of those "burritos", a bear claw, and an original crueller. "Burrito" - 4.5/5 the flavor was fine and I got the apple topping with cinnamon. Flavor was on point. The texture was a bit hard for my teeth, but nothing horrible. I just prefer softness when it comes to sweets/donuts. Bear Claw - 5/5 It was so moist, perfectly sweeten, and I don't know how they made it look so perfectly portioned to where it actually did look like a clean looking bear claw, but that definitely helped when I was pulling each "claw" and enjoying each bite. Definitely a must have. Crueller - 5/5 it was extremely soft and moist on the first bite. I devoured that thing like nothing in one sitting. I plan to come back and try their other flavors.

In addition to have a store front, they also have a drive thru. Food They had a ton of good donut options. Additionally, they have croissants, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, coffees, and other drinks. I grabbed an iced mocha and a half dozen donuts. Chocolate cream filled, chocolate bar, blueberry, chocolate sprinkles, and a M&M's one. If you couldn't tell, my family loves chocolate. Everything was good and priced fairly. 4/5 Service Staff were friendly throughout my time in the restaurant. They were helpful and knowledgeable, and accommodated all requests. 5/5 Ambiance B & B had your typical donut shop feel. It was clean and inviting. 5/5 I am a big fan of mom and pop donut shops. Their product is always so much better than the chains. Check them out.

I must admit, I was lured over by someone else's photo here on Yelp of a blueberry donut, so thank you for that ;) It was mid-morning when I arrived, so the cases reflected that the most popular items had been snatched up by the early birds, but there were still plenty of donuts and bagels to choose from. Best of all, there were still blueberry cake donuts to be had!! Donuts are similar to potato chips in that you can't just get one. I also ended up with a maple old fashioned and a raised that was dipped in maple glaze and further adorned with Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal. I'm saving the old fashioned for tomorrow (I figure of the 3, this one will do best on the second day). The blueberry cake with blueberry glaze was perfect with my morning coffee ~ I'd definitely pair these two together again! The Cinnamon Toast Crunch raised was light and fluffy, the cereal giving it a nice added crunch, and it was a much appreciated afternoon treat. The girl working the front of the store was very friendly and didn't look at me funny as I started snapping pics of the shop to go along with my review. When she finished my transaction, she went over to finish chatting with a customer. When I noticed a few ceramic coffee mugs hanging on the wall, I asked if they belonged to their regular customers. Indeed they were, one of whom she happened to be chatting with. Gotta love that!
