Dozen assorted
Tanya A.

We are visiting from the east coast where they worship Dunkin donuts (yuck!) I'm from the west coast so I know of the small, family owned donut shops and how amazing their donuts are. Freshh donuts did not disappoint! The donuts are soft and fried to perfection. The lady behind the counter was so sweet and welcoming. Brought cash because I read the reviews beforehand. We're only here for four days and I think we'll stop by again.

The fam and I were staying with our in-laws down South over the weekend, so when my wifey said for me to buy donuts for the fam, of course I turned to Yelp to find the best donut place. After looking over the ratings and reading some reviews, I decided to visit Freshh Donuts. I'm so glad I found this South Bay gem because the donuts themselves lived up to this establishment's name. Freshh fo sho! For my Yelp friends, Freshh Donuts can be found by exiting off Palm Avenue using the 5 freeway and heading east. It's not too far after you exit off the freeway and can be found on the corner of Palm Avenue and Hollister Street. Fresh is located in a small strip mall with the convenience store 7-11 as its anchor store. It's next to Wah Shing Chinese food, Armando's taco shop, a tatoo shop, a smoke shop, and across from Palm City Liquor and Papa John's. I docked Freshh half a star (4.5 stars all day) because you can't sit down inside to enjoy their sweet goodies as their inside booths are blocked off by yellow caution tape. The inside looks like your run of the mill donut shop. Freshh does not accept debit/credit cards, but it does take cash, Venmo, and to my surprise Zelle. The Asian lady behind the counter was very friendly and she provided really good customer service. Whenever we visited our in-laws and craved donuts, our go to place was Yum Yum Donuts. After my first time experience at Freshh, I believe we now have a new go to donut place. There is a large array of donuts and Freshh is definitely not stingy on the size of their donuts. Just like everything else we purchase nowadays, it appears donuts are not immune to the rise in prices as I paid $28 for two dozen donuts. I made sure to buy a maple glazed cake donut, so that I can compare to a similar donut that I loved at Donut Touch in the North County. Hopefully you'll see the pic of the Freshh Donut doppelgänger and you'll see that my first bite made me real happy because I found the equivalent yummy, tasty, and fresh down South. Freshh's maple glazed cake donut was so good that I had to take a picture of it. Initially, I cut half of a glazed donut to indulge in, but it was so delish that I had to enjoy the other half too. Calories, schmalories because Freshh's donuts were so yummy that depriving myself was out of the question. I'm glad my better half suggested that we buy donuts for our family. Otherwise, we would not have found our new go to donut place. If you don't know about Freshh Donuts, then you're welcome.

I like this place because the customer service is always on point. The donuts are HUGE and insanely delicious! My new go to spot!

Boston creme donut after bringing it home, moments before being consumed.

Excellent donuts. More than fair pricing. Service was wonderful - the owner was so friendly and kind. Will absolutely be back for more!

Best donuts I've had! Great price ($14.50 for a mixed dozen + dozen donut holes) and they're so fresh! Customer service was excellent as well. They take cash and venmo.

Mochi donut flavors and prices

Mochi donuts here! I saw a clip on Instagram about mochi donuts and immediately started Yelping and Googling to see if I could find any in San Diego and came upon Freshh Donuts (thank god for that other person's review or I never would have known!) You do have to call them a day in advance to order them but they are totally worth that extra step. They're chewy and crispy and such a fun texture! The owner is also super nice and friendly

Chocolate glazed buttermilk
Anne C.

Was somewhat in the area (not really, it was totally out of the way for me)... But came here on a Saturday morning, it wasn't busy at all. I'm totally anti-trendy right now, and all for small hole in the walls, mom&pop shops these days... At least where donuts are concerned. But anyways... Your typical neighborhood donut shop, a bit older looking, but kept clean. Nothing fancy or exotic, just some good classic donuts. Walked in and the lady came out from the back room and greeted me right away. She was energetic and friendly. I decided to get 1/2 dozen donuts, and ended up getting almost all buttermilk donuts (+1 maple bar).. But yea, my all time favorite donut anywhere is the old fashion with chocolate frosting. I love the crinkly top. Buttermilk donuts have the same crinkly top texture. But anyways... I was surprised when the lady put the donuts in a paper bag instead of a box, but they held their shape. Their donuts are a little bigger than your average donut. Very dense too. The bag of 6 was pretty heavy! Haha. So anyways, the buttermilk donuts I got were glazed, maple, and chocolate. The frosting and the glaze is actually a VERY thin layer. Just enough to know that it's there. Didn't flake or fall off either. Same with the chocolate and maple frosting. Just a nice thin layer. The donut itself was perfectly moist with a subtle sweet taste. Dense, but still light and airy. So good. Thumbs up to this place! $8.99/doz $5/6

They printed out a Happy Birthday Sign on the front!

Every Sidecar doughnut is made from scratch and fresh every hour! And they only use the finest ingredients! Highly recommend the huckleberry 10/10! You can never go wrong with an old fashioned 9/10! But my all time seasonal favorite is the passion fruit 11/10! Pure deliciousness!!!! I also tried the banana iced latte for the very first time- so good! Prices are high, but totally worth every penny! The quality of ingredients and service is absolutely amazing! The vibe is sleek, quaint and colorful! And the staff are so friendly and welcoming! It's about a 25-30 min drive from my house, but totally worth it for the freshest doughnuts in town!

Grabbing some sidecar donuts…read more My friend and I arrive pretty late after dinner and yet there was still a good amount of donuts available to choose from. The small shop was busy and had a decent crowd, but the service was so good that everyone was taken care of relatively quickly. I got a variety of donuts and so did my friend, everything looked mouthwatering (despite us being full from dinner). I really want to come back again soon, all the donuts were really really good, fresh, and lasted me over the span of a couple of days (assuming stored well).

What a cute boba spot. So happy they finally have one in San Diego and so close to my house…read more I love the ambiance of the place. It's super cute, pink and clean. There is no customer service as everything you order is through the kiosk, which is fine. The drinks come out quick which is a plus. I did pay extra for the cute surprise toy. I can't wait to come back and try other drinks and their mochi dough. Thanks Mochi Dough for a fun first time.

FOR THE WIN!!! (4.75 stars)…read more I love donuts. And I tend to stick to basic classical donuts. And therefore I am late to the trend with the mochi donuts! This location is inside Bober Tea and Coffee. There is a glass casing with several flavors to choose from and they sell at $3 a piece. The one that stood out to me was the chocolate with sprinkles. Upon receiving it in a paper pocket bag, the icing was rubbing off on the bag. That immediately told me this is super fresh! I could already feel the softness of the donut. The little sectioned off ball looking segments of the donut are also a game changer when it comes to eating - easier to eat without making a mess! The texture was bouncy, soft, lightly chewy and a little stretchy... the texture was fun and I found myself wanting another afterwards. I do wish they had offer other flavors that don't sounds too sweet because the other flavors didn't really catch me. Until the next review...

The fluffiness reminded me more of a beignet and brioche. Will be back to try more flavors! 5/13- We returned for more. These were made to order and topping to dough ratio was too much. Maybe they were being generous, but they were overly sweet today. Bourbon Caramel, Strawberry Shortcake, Lemon, Blueberry Hill, Mango Margarita and Turtle Cheesecake.

Great from anyone who is lactose intolerant. I'm not but I think it tastes better than the regular horchata. They have also recently expanded to a matcha menu called Sana Sana bar.

I decided to stop in at 11:30 AM on a Wednesday morning after a Pilates class nearby. They donuts selection was kind of sparse. I should've taken a picture of the rack because most of the places were empty. There is also a Matcha bar that looks like it's supposed to be set up off to the side, but was not open. We picked out two beautiful donuts, the Chocolate Abuelita and the Cajeta. The Cata looked really nice, but was very plain tasting. The Chocolate Abuelita was definitely better and I liked the Mexican hot chocolate cream in the center. I would give this donut shop one more shot, just because of all the great things I've heard about it from people whose opinions I respect. Honestly, though, there are so many donut shops in town that if I don't find it better the next time I probably wouldn't return.
