The new owner has ruined what used to be a great donut store. I'd drive 45 minutes to buy donuts there because I haven't been able to find a better donut shop in southern California. But yesterday, I made the 45 minute trip for the last time. The donuts used to be big, they had a lot of frosting on them, and they had this amazing donut that was glazed and then dipped in either chocolate or maple that were outstanding. Unfortunately, the owner retired and sold the donut shop to her nephew and he's ruined the business. Now they're just like every other donut shop. The donuts are smaller, they're very greasy, they now only have a small amount of frosting on the donuts, and he decided to no long offer the glazed donuts dipped in chocolate or maple. I also think he changed the Fritters donut recipe because they no longer taste as great as the recipe they had before. Their donuts have always been expensive, but it was worth it because the donuts were so amazing. Now they're still expensive but it's not worth it because the donuts are just like the crap donuts at every other donut shop, and so I won't be back. read more

I can only eat donuts occasionally, so it's important that I make good choices. This donut shop is terribly inconvenient for me, but well worth the drive. It's nothing fancy, just a few counters and old decor, like it's been around forever...which it has. Who cares what it looks like? Those counters are filled with a large assortment of the biggest and most beautiful donuts in the valley. The fritters and cinnamon rolls are the size of a plate. Do you want your cinnamon roll with icing or crumble topping? No problem, they have them. Buttermilk donuts and old-fashions? Choose chocolate, vanilla, maple, glazed or plain. All delicious. By the way...compared to other shops in town, they are a bargain, too. Probably the least expensive shop but delivering large, high-quality donuts baked on site. Service isn't overwhelmingly friendly, but it is prompt. Not worth ditching a star for, but smiley faces are better than not. Personally, I'm not going there to be friends, I'm there for the donuts and coffee, but a smile for everyone would definitely help. Strongly suggest this shop for donuts! read more

Foster's Donuts - An assortment of old-fashions. Chocolate, vanilla and maple. - Donuts Near Me - Canyon Cntry, California

it pains me to write this bc I have LOVED foster's for a very long time. The old owners were great & even the two young lady's that worked there recently have been nothing but sweet, but the new ownership has ruined it. The donuts are smaller for the same price, the taste is noticably different, and the overall vibes just aren't the same. I legit felt rushed to order donuts and then putting your donuts on top of other donuts when putting together your assortment, so yours now have the frosting of other donuts on them. yeh no, i can't do it. just gonna start driving to stevenson ranch. read more

I asked for a specialty donut that they no longer made. The young lady at the counter said we don't make that any more. But we can make it since we have the toppings. Thank You.... it was so sweet to do and the donut was DELICIOUS! read more

The donuts were good as always (incidentally, those were the two donuts I was given for free). I decided to add some *conchas* (they look like Mexican *conchas*), some square pastries that looked like Salvadoran *quesadillas*, a croissant, a couple of slices of cornbread, and a couple of ham, jalapeño, and cheese croissants (totaling $50). If the pastries had been fresh, the price wouldn't have mattered, but it was embarrassing that the person I gave half of them to ended up leaving them behind because they said they were very stale. Honestly, I hope that--just like the donuts--the bread and pastries are fresh; even if they're pricey, they should be fresh and good Just like before read more

Super nice service and yummy food! This is my go to donut spot in Santa Clarita Valley.

Foster's Donut is an old school donut shop. You walk in and it smells like fresh baked goods. This location is spotless and the owners are very friendly. Their menu consists of drinks, donuts ,shaved ice and a few other items. The donuts are large and fluffy . They have so many different varieties of flavors. I am happy to support this mom and pop and their delicious donuts. read more

So sad. Not the same. Wish they would have kept the same recipe. Donuts were dry and didn't taste fresh. And definitely it as big and fluffy as original Fosters Donuts. Time to find another donut shop. :( read more

The girl at the front counter Saturday mornings is super sweet! She always makes friendly conversation with my special needs friend (who will sometimes say very unusual things) and with me, and also answers any questions we have . Donuts are very fresh and a great price for their large size! Parking is easy, and store is kept neat with quick customer service! read more

It seems some were uncomfortable when new management came in. But just because it's slightly different doesn't mean it's not good...working its way to wonderful. The donuts are better each time we go in & they're widening the appeal by offering additional types of pastries! I especially enjoy the atmosphere of friendliness and positivity. Our family will keep going back! read more

I've eaten at a bunch of different donut places in town. I don't make donuts and I don't know how to make a good donut... I'd imagine how often they change the oil and how long they let the dough sit around before cooking it all plays a factor, among many other details I couldn't guess, but these seem fresher and tastier than anything else I've had in town. The inside looks a lot nicer and more modern than the outside, service is polite, quick, low key, and friendly. The inside temperature is comfortable, and I will definitely be coming back. read more

Since this store has been under new ownership the donuts are smaller and are oily. On top of that they raised the prices, you only get 6 donut holes for $2, I used to get the white bag more than half full for $5. I have been going here for 20+ years for donuts but every time I have tried to go there since new ownership, I'm just disappointed. The people are nice but sadly the things I loved about this place are gone, including the nice Asian couple. read more

Unfortunately the recipe has changed and no longer tastes good. The donuts are and were a little overpriced but still use to be worth it. The new owner is really nice. I just hope they read the reviews and bring back the original Fosters recipe. Otherwise I'll be looking for a new shop. read more

Lost a great. New staff is nice, new layout is ok. Donuts look appealing, but lack in flavor and moistness. Seemed drier and less fluffy inside with that right amount of fried crisp on the outside. Major deduction, They got rid of the chocolate glaze (glazed donut with chocolate frosting on top) a Foster's staple! I've given three times since new management and third time wasn't the charm. Sad to have to find a new donut shop. read more

These donuts unfortunately do not taste good. For years this was the best donut shop in Santa Clarita, but unfortunately, when the business sold the recipes changed. I hope somehow they're able to bring back the original Foster's recipes. So sad! read more

OMG..if your going to buy a business, keep what made the business successful. This is no longer the Fosters I've loved for 20+ years.

Sadly, Foster's Donuts is under new ownership & it's definitely not the same. The donuts aren't as large & are not as good. They've cleaned it up & they were very friendly. May's donuts were the best and we already miss her. We're going to look for a new place. read more

Best and freshest breakfast sandwich in Santa Clarita. The doughnuts were perfectly glazed and the food was ready quickly. The owners always serve us fast and it's such a nostalgic old fashioned donut spot. I hate egg and I constantly crave their sandwiches read more

Best chocolate donut I've ever had!! Along with the blended mocha I ordered everything was perfect. I would def come back if I am in the area. Donuts are really that good here! Super soft donut and the crispy soft chocolate glaze was phenomenal. The lady who helped us was nice. read more

I haven't been to a Fosters donuts for a long time, I was not disapointed. The donuts are great, and I did not have to wait in line. The staff there was very nice, and she even gave me a free donut. I will go back there again even when I have to dive the extra miles to get there. read more

Took donuts for work and they were a hit! Donuts are of a good portion size. I'd recommend you try them out.

Big, delicious, buttery and oily glazed decadent donuts. That was a whole review itself. Doesn't matter what time of day...the donuts are always good. Probably because thought is put into the actual dough itself. If the DOUGH is well-made, the actual finished product itself is going to be good without having to rely solely on icing. These here are sweet, buttery and slightly oily...generously and completely covered 360 in glaze...lending for some badass donuts. Trust. And shame on me. I first walked in judgmental only to have my head blow up at how good they are. I imagine that if we'd get here right at opening, we'd ***really*** be mind blown. read more

Great little donut shop in Santa Clarita, the donuts are amazing, the shop owner is super nice and the vibe is all mom and pop! Highly recommend if you're looking for a sugar fix. read more

Not sure how to rate. The doughnuts are very good but the owner/staff are very unpleasant. Even though this is closest to me and good I usually choose to go to the friendly small business shops. read more

Went on a Saturday morning. Large tasty donuts. I've never had donuts so huge. Seriously. Soft and fresh as well. Gotta try it.

Fresh donuts no matter what time I go. My go to: apple fritter. I'm sure you'll find your favorite.

Their donuts are great and they have great boba drinks. I always enjoy having a bear claw and a green tea boba. It's cool that they also sell snacks like chips and candy. When I decide to go all out and splurge: Foster's donuts is one of the places I go. The costumer service need some improving but overall: I like this place. read more

I love donuts. I've been to every donut joint in the SCV including yum yum, donut inn, dunkin (the WORST, save your money), and all the local mom-n-pop shops and this place, Fosters, is by far the best. The donuts are always fresh, they're huge, and they taste great. Are they the best of the best? No, I'd rate Voodoo tops, then maybe Krispy by virtue of how they melt in your mouth. But unless you want to drive 40 miles to burbank or further into LA, this is the place for premium donuts. The owners are also super sweet. It's worth adding that they also serve boba, ice cream, banana splits and other confections though I've never tried them. Just a donut man. read more

Still my favorite donut shop in the Santa Clarita valley. Today being national donut day, we decided to come and boy am I glad, this glazed twist is like no other, fresh and major delicious. read more

One of my favorite spots for donuts in SCV! Super fresh and soft. Definitely one of the better donut spots out here. Come check them out!!

Best donuts and croissants, warm hham and cheese croissant is incredible, glazed donuts with chocolate glaze on top is memorable. Great people run the place. read more

This donut shop is by far hands-down the best out of there. I have them above dunkin, Krispy Kreme and Yum Yum. The texture of the donuts here will melt in your mouth depending on what time purchase them. If you were an early bird and get there before 6 AM they still will be warm OMG I never thought they were glazed twist can't equal such ecstasy. And the size of their donuts are pretty healthy, you just need one and you'll be squared away until lunchtime. Just remember to bring cold hard cash with you as they do not except any form of plastic what so ever. read more

This is literally the best donut place, though it is a chain, I love this place individually because the family is so cute and sweet here. Wish they had more business, then we could see wider selection in donuts again! If ur a maple fan like I am, you have got to check this place out! The maple twist is the best, but the bar is also great. I think what I like best is that the donuts are very light and fluffy and not super dense. My son and I always come in the morning when we get a chance before school, it's our go to I literally love the little lady that works the register! read more

Been coming here for 23 years. Talk about consistency in product! Whenever we get a craving for donuts THIS is the place we come, no matter where we are in the SCV. It's worth the drive. Bavarian cream, jelly-filled, glazed twists, sugar twists, maple bars, Apple fritters, cinnamon rolls and, of course, cake donuts. They have it all! read more

Best donuts in the SCV. Tried all 'the best' donut shops in the valley but this is by far the best.

I went here knowing nothing about the place. Just saw an open donut shop and wanted to get a maple glaze. It was around 8pm and options were scarce. I didn't have high expectations. But I got an original, sugar glaze, maple glaze, chocolate sprinkle, and coconut donut & after bringing the donuts home, I was thoroughly impressed. The donuts were good! Airy. Not too sweet. Soft. Considering they were probably the end of the batch for the day, I assumed the donuts wouldn't be great. Now today, the day after, I'm finishing up the box of donuts and they are still food. I'll be coming back! read more

The lady running this place is very nice . Great place for donuts . I always stick to original glazed here .

Super fresh and huge donuts the way I remember donuts as a kid. As good or better than any fancy donuts places.

Perfect spot to go for a quick breakfast meal Friendly, welcoming family environment!!! :) read more

'Donut' worry, be happy. If you're a lover of maple and chocolate bars - you can get your fix here for $1/bar. $1 goes a long way here as their bars are HUUUU-UUU-UUUGE! Place is cash only, they do have an ATM located inside for your convenience, and hey folks, they serve ice cream! read more
