    DO-NUT PASS THIS PLACE UP!
    Carlos C.

    This place is more than a Donut Shop, Once you walk in you'll see what I mean..don't expect a Starbucks environment with the price to go with it.. This is a humble place with fresh everything! 17 assorted Ice Blended Drinks, 20 different sandwiches on a variety of buns..Croissant, Wheat and Bagel.. Oh? Did I tell you they have waffels too? Seating is limited so Take Out is your best choiceYou will just have to trust me on this.

    Very unprofessional. The guy there made me feel unwelcomed. I ordered donut holes, got a few small bags of chips, and chocolate milk. He watches me reach for my pocket and pull my wallet out; he sees my cash - I choose to use card. He swiped it extra hard and so fast then tells me it's declined and looks at my cas. In my personal opinion, I highly suspect he wanted cash and would do whatever to avoid card payment because he didn't look happy at all when I pulled the card out. I politely asked him to swipe again slower and he rejected it saying I always bring problems when we don't even know eachother and never had any conflict. I've always just paid and left and that's once in a while when I go (only been there maybe 5 times). He doesn't appreciate long term customers I guess. He also has an extreme language barrier which made it even harder. I won't be returning here and I am going to look into further complaining. Maybe they're not in compliance with how they're handling payment methods, etc. Last: he tried calling the police on me. If i wasnt in a hurry I'd of sat there a recorded the whole thing, letting them come.

    The owner was making my 13 year old uncomfortable. The donuts and coffee taste like shit.

    This might be my new favorite doughnut spot! I saw this place listed as one of the top donut shops…read morein Orange County, so I had to see for myself. The inside was clean, modern, and nicely decorated. I've heard the lines can get long, but we came on a saturday morning and there was barely a wait. They had a good selection of donuts with flavors for everyone. Service was quick and efficient with no complaints. The donuts are fried to order and honestly came out way faster than expected. We also grabbed coffee, I got the maple shaken espresso and it was really good. Strong coffee flavor, creamy, and not overly sweet. Now for the best part... the donuts! They were hot and pillowy soft just melted in your mouth! My favorite was the strawberry glazed, sooo good! If you're in Tustin, I'd say this is one of the best donut spots in the area!

    Best donuts in OC, hands down. I used to be a loyal Sidecar fan, but once Oliboli came to town, I…read morewas completely converted. Their donuts are made fresh to order and are somehow super light and fluffy without that heavy greasy smell or taste you get from most donut shops -- maybe it's the sourdough dough, but whatever they're doing works. The Butter Pecan donut tastes like a warm version of butter pecan ice cream and is absolutely unreal. And the Bumbleberry? Sorry Sidecar Huckleberry, but this one wins. Do yourself a favor and order ahead so you can dig right in! They also make a great matcha!

    A guilty pleasure!…read more Duck Donuts never dissapoints! Made-to-order donuts are such a luxury, I love stopping by and seeing them make it fresh! The service is fast too, you can be in and out super quick. Parking over here sucks though, avoid the lunch rush. Lots of restaurants and plenty of seating outside to enjoy your sweet treat!

    Stopped here to grab some ice cream from chocolate shoppe ice cream and while the ice cream tasted…read moregreat the experience was pretty horrible. When I searched on Google for ice cream near me- chocolate shoppe ice cream popped up then upon looking further I realized it was sold within duck donuts. Still ventured to try it Two guys working, one said he was new, and didn't know where all the flavors were / allowed us to try some b4 we ordered but was a pain bc the flavors were spread between two freezers in front of store and whatever was in the back. Placed an order for 3 double scoop cups (all they had) and took a really long time to make them having to figure out where the flavors were between the front and back of store. Then. They didn't have lids to cover them or a bag to put them in - so we literally covered each cup with another cup and put in a box I had from Costco in my trunk to get them home without dripping everywhere in my car. And I say dripping everywhere bc by the time he finished the last cup/. The others were melted from taking so long. They should probably just stick to donuts if they can't fully support the ice cream products. If I knew now/ I wouldn't have chosen to try there for ice cream. Very unfortunate, bc we probably would have loved the ice cream - but the experience clearly trumped the product.

    I usually love coming to sidecar because of their delicious donuts but I was very disappointed…read morewith the service I received today. It was 10 min before closing & idk if the girls were just rushing to close down but one girl in particular had an attitude. There was a miscommunication / misunderstanding with the girl who took my coffee order (I had assumed the seasonal banana latte came with the foam as pictured & because she didn't ask if I wanted the foam, I didn't ask for it more-so bc she asked if I wanted the brittle on top). When they handed me my drink it was a plain banana latte with no foam or brittle. I was ignored when I tried calling for the barista until another girl followed up - however this girl had an attitude. She told me that I must not have ordered it since they ask at the register if I want foam with brittle. Explained they didn't ask. Instead she just said "sorry I'll let them know for next time". And walked away leaving me with my drink as is. Didn't offer any sort of resolution. I walked in and asked they could charge me extra for the foam. The same girl with the attitude remade my drink and handed it to me. No thank you, no sorry, nothing. First time experiencing this kind of service. Not sure if the girl is new but saw someone else share a similar experience couple days ago. Wish I would have asked for her name!

    Sidecar never ever misses and they have me hooked with their seasonal flavors. They have the best…read moredonuts, and I'm not even a donut person. I specifically LOVE their cake donuts. I could go on and on about them... seriously. This time we had to come try their collab with Cake Picnic, which was the golden hour grey donut. Let me tell you, it was bomb.com. The orange flavor was phenomenal and I have no notes. We also got the strawberry donut and hot chocolate with almond milk, both obviously very good as well. It was my first time getting the hot chocolate and I was honestly surprised with how yummy it was. It was not too chocolatey and not too milky. It was the perfect balance and the perfect pairing with the donuts.
