    Best neighborhood donut shop. Actually, this is the best donut shop in the area. Everyone here is extremely friendly and very welcoming.

    Even ordering in the afternoon, the donuts taste fresh. I just wish you could order a half dozen

    This isn't my go--to Donut Shop, but whenever I can't make the drive to mine this is a solid second…read morefor me that's conveniently located! Employees are always quick, respectful, and appreciative of receiving tips. Their donut selection is a bit more narrow than my go--to place, but theres still a respectable amount of options to choose from. Most importantly the donuts are always fresh and delicious! It's conveniently located near the highway and usually always has parking available for those commuters trying to get in and out fast. What I appreciate most is they always have a good supply of fresh donuts even closer to noon, so on those lazy days you don't have to worry about all the good stuff being gone super early. My only gripe here is that they never seem to have donut boxes, but instead place them in their pastry bags wrapped inside plastic bags. To most that's probably not a deal breaker, but boxes can be really convenient for storage. Especially since any donuts not immediately eaten will begin to have their icing adhere to the bags and completely strip off the donuts. Pricing is a little more expensive than some of the other donuts in the area, but they more than make up for it with quality and service!

    There are numerous donut shops in Simi Valley. Some are located in places easy to get in and out…read moreof. There are others that aren't. The Donut Cafe is one of those places you kinda have to know it's there because you would pass by without noticing it. It's tucked in the corner of a line up of ever changing businesses that don't last long. So to find Donut Cafe requires some auto gymnastics. It's next door a " Hawaiian BBQ" place that's not open yet and a "Space Available" store front. The baked items on display are the usual line up of donuts, chocolate, caramel, raspberry filled and the like. My selection of a Maple Bar was quite tasty. I wanted to sit and enjoy my sugar fest however each table table top was crumb- laden and not clean. The young man in the back was too occupied with his phone to bother. I thought of saying something. On second thought if this business has not trained their employees some BASIC housekeeping rules of "engagement" then it's not my place to do so. Then I thought, people just dash and drive at this place not bothering to sit in their "cafe". So hats off to the run in and drive out customers. Oh yes, there was Asian inspired coffee and tea menu on the side illustrated board AND I could buy lottery tickets here too. So question: Would I go back? Meh, no. There are other donut shops around Simi that are easy to get in and out....AND have clean tables to sit at the enjoy my sugar rush!

    Makenna Coffee is seriously such a hidden gem!…read more I first discovered this place completely by accident a while back when one of my girlfriends and I were on our way to go camping. We were craving coffee, searched for the closest coffee shop, and happened to stumble across Makenna Coffee. I remember absolutely falling in love with their coffee and thinking, "I cannot wait until we come back this way so I can get this again!" Unfortunately, I never ended up making it back... until today! We happened to be in the area for an appointment at the Jeep dealership, and when I realized Makenna Coffee was nearby, there was NO WAY I was leaving without stopping. This was only my second time here, and somehow it was just as good as I remembered. Taylor helped me and she was such a sweetheart! I couldn't remember what I had ordered the first time, so she helped me pick out two different drinks to try -- the Sandy Blonde and the Maui Latte. I ordered them half sweet, and they were still a little sweeter than I normally prefer, but honestly, they were amazing nonetheless. I'm usually a black coffee/Americano kind of girl, but every once in a while I get a serious sweet tooth and want something fun and indulgent -- and Makenna Coffee is PERFECT for that. Their coffee is so good, and there's just something about this little spot that I've loved ever since I accidentally discovered it. I only wish I lived closer because I would definitely be here way more often. If you're ever in this area, do yourself a favor and stop at Makenna Coffee. It's one of those little gems you're so happy you found.

    Not from here, but we always stop at Makenna for coffee when in the area. I really like the house…read moreblend, and my wife really likes the Kona roast. There's always a friendly face behind the counter. This time it was Simeon who made us feel like regulars here!
