Donuts Express - Ham and Cheese croissant - Donuts Near Me - Whittier, California

A little gem in Whittier. There are three tables for you to dine in. At first I was confused why... but then I saw the whole menu of delicious sandwiches and drinks on top of all the donuts. Few things to keep in mind: I went with my family of 5 - no restrooms - croissant sandwiches are ginormous and for kiddos.. they can share these - great customer service - fresh squeeze orange juice - delicious hazelnut iced coffee - donuts obviously yummy - tables to eat with your kiddos Nice and quiet, with the occasional spurt of busyness, but overall pay this business a visit. The sandwiches were delicious especially the sauce egg croissant! read more

It was our first time here this morning, some co workers and I stopped by before work and we loved it! The donuts and pastries are big for a good price!

Just moved back to Whittier and stopped by for coffee and a donut. The simple but detailed menu on the wall caught my attention. The first time didn't disappoint so I'm back and trying their #11, another hit! Pros: Friendly service, clean place, variety of drinks, snacks and delicious sandwiches. Cons: A little pricy with an average (breakfast) sandwich priced at $10.00+. Highly recommend trying this spot at least once. read more

Donuts Express - The #11 with egg! Bacon Avocado Cheese Croissant. Must Try! - Donuts Near Me - Whittier, California

Love this place and will continue to support this small business. Very much a local vibe and I love it. They have a large menu of breakfast and lunch type sandwiches. My wife had a bacon eh and cheese croissant which was amazing. I had coffee, but all the kids loved their donuts. Everyone was able to choose what they wanted because of the variety they have. The service was fantastic, quick and very friendly. Made me feel welcome and not rushed as most chain donut places can do. read more

Best donuts in town!!! Ppl/owners are super nice folks. Always smiling/friendly. My go to donut place plus the donuts are tasty

Always important to know a good donut place wherever. I had to get something enticing for a bunch of early risers for a volunteer event on Sunday and this place hit the spot for everyone. Even when I parked I knew I found a great place just on the amount of brisk business they were doing! The employees (family members?) were very nice and congenial. When my lady was working on my dozen other folks came from the back to the front to help other customers. There are definitely long-time customers there with employees remembering their order and one customer asking how their daughter was doing. But isn't that Whitter? Very neighborly. read more

It was way too early for me to take pictures here. Next time. But this is like the Cheer's of donut shops and I was definitely an outsider. So it was really no time for me to be taking pictures either. Everyone here knew the owners and the owners knew everyone. I just so happened by this shop because it was raining and tennis was canceled, I love donuts and they sell Lotto. I wasn't going to get anything to eat, like a breakfast sandwich, but, they had 20 pictures of options that I could get besides donuts. I got a sausage and cheese croissant plus a few chocolate glazed and a chocolate cake. Eat the glazed right away because although it will last until the next morning, it tastes best right away. I'll start the moderation on Monday. read more

I seriously love love the customer service here. The people working here specially the ladies are very friendly and even know their customers names. I love to come in for their sandwich #11 and I usually add bacon & jalapenos with the pepper jack cheese and mayo. Give this small business a try you wont regret it. I been coming here for about 2 years and glad I found this gem. All in all, not only is the food great but the customer service is here is TOP. Thank you Donut Express!!!!!! read more

Friendly and quick service. Donuts we're on point and really good! There is a good selection, lots to choose from. read more

came here on a gloomy day but the staff were all so cheery and kind, my day felt so much brighter! the donuts are mouth watering. this was my first time in and i can't wait to come back. i have a habit of visiting the thrift stores nearby, so i plan to add this as my first stop. they even sell mini versions of some of the donuts! perfect to pair with a coffee! read more

Donuts Express - Donuts Near Me - Whittier, California

(Snacked 03/01/19 FR @ 11:00am, 04/01/19 MO @ 12:30pm, & 09/17/19 TU @ 8:00am): Apparently, third time's a charm in order to express my love for apple fritters - don't call them donuts! Along one of the routes I took to get home from the city of Whittier, I constantly passed Donuts Express and of course had to stop in and try their apple fritters not once... not twice... but three times before it graced my tastebuds. I've come to learn oftentimes many shops only made enough that lasted during the morning time and then would've make anymore after that which I never understood. Was the multiple visits worth it!? PURCHASE Maple Buttermilk Bar ($1.00x2): One of my favorite donuts because of its simplicity, each one was dense, not dry, and heavily covered in thick crackling maple frosting... these are truly a treat https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=4C_k25AIBoiaqw3JQU9LxQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Color Sprinkles Chocolate Cake Donut ($1.00): Color sprinkles always made me happy, this was a rainbow rush in my mouth filled with chocolate https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=CJ96SV1jsSZSo96OdYGSkg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Spicy Orange Cruller ($1.00): Barely spicy, electric orange, light and fluffy... it was like eating air a la cinnamon crisps https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=PUohEiMO8FWDSYdDm1Ua_Q&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Color Sprinkles White Cake Donut ($1.00): I was definitely more of a chocolate than a white cake fan but all still good https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=vh6E0RuZq21BMn602zwXRw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. THE "APPLE FRITTER IS TAKING OVER THE WORLD TOUR" CONTINUED... Apple Fritter ($1.50): Not that I was an apple fritter snob - eff it...yes I was! - but there was a certain way I liked mine. 1st, the price was comparably cheaper than most. 2nd, it was round, medium in size, medium thickness and dense with some lightness, and not exactly the size of my face (an ode to the great Goldstar Donuts in Van Nuys). 3rd, there were a sufficient amount of apple bits. 4th, the overall medium-dark brown color was nice with multiple burnt ends I liked, and the high glaze had a very good cracking effect. There were several crunchy odd crannies, corners, and nooks which I liked to break off into small little morsels. 5th, it was fresh based on its temperature but no hints of tiny oil pockets that leaked into your mouth and dripped down your throat. Overall, it had total value and couldn't wait for more - 5.0 STARS https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=3kAMCGIb31bEA_vtsWcGLg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! SERVICE On this particular day, I was immediately greeted by an older gentleman behind the counter, he was primed and ready to help me. It surprisingly wasn't crowded with coffee fiends and dozen-donut buyers commonly found at this time of day, he deftly collected my order, gathered my payment, and wished me well on my way - easy-peasy! PARKING (FREE) Located in the Twin Palms Village 12-business small strip mall https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=aYqBU3_-iViS0VWzEs62bQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, parking was decent both found in the front and back of the complex. Otherwise, there was plenty of parking along the main drag of Whittier Blvd. and surrounding side residential streets. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A no-frills donut shop with a simple storefront https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=qSs7W8LYwfRKCUXTTB9mNA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, this simple layout was filled with only a couple standalone tables, one long display case and order counter, easily visible and visual price menus up on the wall behind the counter, various colorful posters and such hung on the walls, and your assortment of Lotto and Scratchers display https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=jcYiOrfmJk_fEjrIqATvKQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Plenty of natural lighting came through the glass front door and wall windows while soul-sucking electric fluorescent ceiling lights covered the rest.I believed there was one TV and light background music. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL As elusive their apple fritters was at Donuts Express, I was exceedingly happy with my visits here and would definitely return for more! They served the usual menu assortment of food options (a boba drink was my next item to try), the apple fritter was very good, they weren't a 24-hour shop which was exceedingly hard to find these days, and I was happy to support a small business. I found total value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $6.50 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). Although I paid in case each time to save them any fees, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS read more

They have a million different sandwiches, I did not know which one to pick because they all looked yummy! Ended up getting a #11 and added bacon and a small iced vanilla coffee. Both were terrific and this is totally going to be my new spot read more

Let's start off with customer service - let me say this, if they served expired milk and stale donuts, I'd still come here just for the customer service! This donut shop is the golden example of unbelievably amazing customer service! They knew every person who walked in, greeted them by name and basically knew their order immediately! For newcomers like myself, so kind and helpful, even gave me half sausage half ham sandwich because they knew I couldn't decide which one to get! Now for the taste buds - like I mentioned above, got a half ham half sausage croissant cheese and egg of course, and it was delicious.. honestly didn't make my choice any easier for next time because they were both so good! The donuts, not a single stale part, so soft and fresh! Coffee was delicious! I know a lot of people say they can't taste the difference if it's extreme fresh or just heated old coffee but come here and you'll know exactly what fresh coffee is! Overall I give this place 5+ stars because it was such a great experience! Worth the 15 minute drive past more than 20/25 other donut shops (including Dunkin' Donuts). read more

I must admit a fact. I am addicted to donuts! I would eat one a day if my metabolism and health would permit me to. But let me get back to the subject at hand. My review about Donuts Express in Whittier. While I was exercising at 24hr Fitness close by, I was yelping for a donut shop nearby. There were quite a few choices nearby, but I was immediately drawn to Donuts Express because of their 5 star rating. A common theme in most of the reviews was that not only are the donuts good, but the customer service here is great. Well, I had to check them out for myself. Found them easily enough in a little strip plaza. They are a true mom and pop donut shop. Yes, the customer service was very welcoming and outstanding even for a non-regular like me. As soon as I stepped inside the shop, I was welcomed! Their display cases were packed with so many choices. I bought a Custard Filled Chocolate Donut and a Chocolate French Cruller. If I recall, it was not Bavarian custard inside. Still good, though. The French cruller was delicious!! No reason for me to give them less than 5 stars. If I lived in the area, then I would be the Duke of Donuts Express. read more

I am surprised that I will be the first to give recognition to the Donuts Express. Everyone in Whittier knows where Norm's restaurant is located. This donut shop is in the Twin Palm plaza next door. Their donuts are the best!. They give it that extra touch of quality and perfection. My wife knows I get donut fever sometimes and I need my fix. Oh. it's hilarious to her!. Delirious for me!. The couple that operate the shop are extremely nice and friendly. So, if you get in donut mode, get the absolute best in Whittier at Donut Express. read more
