Diablo Donuts is SO good. I genuinely haven't had one bad thing here. The donuts are always fresh,…read morelight, airy, and chewy with the perfect amount of sweetness and such good flavors. The breakfast is just as good. I'm not even an egg person, and I will happily eat their bacon, egg, and cheese on a croissant. The fried egg is perfect, the bacon and cheese are delicious, and the quiche is amazing too. Even the coffee is good! On top of the food, everyone is always incredibly friendly and welcoming. These are easily the best donuts I've had in the Baltimore area. Better than Kneads and anywhere else I've tried. Do not skip this place!

We had a really disappointing customer service experience here…read more PSA Parents: have your hot wheel car in hand when entering this establishment. There is a Hot Wheels display with a "take a car, leave a car" sign. Our young child didn't have a car to leave, so we encouraged him to speak up and ask if he could take one and bring a replacement back after his soccer game. As he started to ask, the owner didn't give him an opportunity to finish. Instead, she immediately told him that if he didn't have a replacement car, that he's stealing. The way this was handled was completely unnecessary and especially upsetting for a young child. He was devastated and kept crying, saying "I don't steal." And that's the point, if he intended to steal, he wouldn't have asked. We are teaching him to do the right thing. What kind of experience do you want your young customers to have? There was an opportunity to hear the child out and simply explain the policy. Or even offer to hold the car for a bit until he could return with his car. Instead, an innocent interaction turned into an experience that left a young child feeling like he had been accused of being a thief. A little patience and kindness would have made all the difference. We actually went back afterward, and spoke with the owner about how she spoke to a 5 year-old. We explained how upset he was and how the interaction affected him. Her only response was, " I understand, but we've had 24 cars stolen." There was no apology, no acknowledgment that the situation could have been handled differently, and no accountability for how she spoke to a young child who was simply trying to ask a question and do the right thing. What a missed opportunity. Had she simply shown our child a little kindness, we could have easily turned the experience into a positive one and had our child come back with multiple cars to contribute for the next little person who may not have a car on hand. Instead, we walked away feeling completely different about the establishment.

I especially enjoyed the Frank roll and the crab dip bagel because the Frank roll's onion jam has a perfect sweetness to it and its croissant bun is beautifully crafted and aesthetically pleasing. As always, the crab dip bagel just smells intoxicating and dangerously good. The space is small, clean, and parking is somewhat easy. No room to dine in but there is an outdoor space for folks. Customer service is great. Overall, I'd recommend!

Everything looked really good!

There is also a little shopping area where they have loaves of bread and other goodies to purchase. Bought a loaf of sourdough on the way out and what I really appreciated is they will slice it for you as well! We started with Smoked Chai Lattes and a seasonal Creamsicle type beverage. The smoke notes to the chai were prevalent but not over powering - a unique twist. We ordered a pistachio baklava croissant to share - flaky and and filled with pistachio paste inside. I would recommend it! For our meals we had the Egg & Cheese Biscuit, Ham and Cheese Béchamel Croissant and Egg White Omelette. They were all good and filling. Our service was good, but relaxed towards the end - started out attentive but we were done with our meals quite a while before someone came over to ask if we needed anything or offered the check. We really didn't mind since we hadn't caught up with each other in a long time, so appreciated not being rushed out of there. We also were in a back corner, so may not have been the most noticeable. Everyone was really friendly who worked there. Loved the open kitchen concept where you could watch them making all the donuts and croissants. The ambiance was so on theme even to the details in the restrooms and the lighting fixtures looking like whisks! Will definitely return in the future.

I was able to park right out front but by the time I left, a lot of the spots were taken. Thr people behind the counter were extremely friendly and nice. I was greeted right away and helped right away. I got 2 chocolate frosted donuts, a cinnamon roll, a slice of strawberry shortcake cake, and the large glazed donut. It was fairly cheap (about $14ish dollars), and they only take visa and Mastercard. My husband enjoys the chocolate frosted donuts a lot. The glazed donut hit the spot! Although, I could not finish it. It was that massive. The strawberry cake was super light and fluffy. The cinnamon roll was fine , it was more of a donut cinnamon roll! I would definitely come back here. Great service and amazing donuts/baked goods.

We ordered at one of two kiosks but there may be an option to order from a person as well? I got the fried green tomato and pimento cheese biscuit that I added an egg to, and it was great.
