I have been going here for year and love the donuts here. I just wish they were a little fluffier but that could be personal preference. I love their round chocolate donuts. I wish their chocolate bars were a little thicker but taste wise they are great and not greasy at all.

Great blueberry fritter, got me full kind and sweet owner who I enjoyed talking to about family quick service, decent variety, quiet slow atmosphere.

Donut Selection

My family's old go to when we lived in AG. When you enter, you are welcomed. They had many donuts to choose from, especially for a Wednesday at 11:30am. Still thick glazed, filled to the max and very fluffy. The place, itself, hasn't changed one bit, since the 90's. Ambiance is still that old donut shop. My daughter loved her pink sprinkled and I loved my Jelly and Custard. My daughter thought that it was so cool that I used to go there as a kid and now she got to go. It was great to share it with her and make our memories.

Apple fritter

I've never thrown a donut away until today! The worst I've ever had paid over 3 bucks for an Apple fritter that was dry and over fried with no apple! The staff didn't even say hello or the total very disappointed.

2 raspberry filled donuts and a bacon maple bar
Winter L.

The lady at the counter was very nice. We got 2 raspberry filled donuts and she filled them up on the spot! Very full and delicious! The bacon maple bar wasn't as expected. We didn't finish that one. The honeydew boba was sweet and good. There wasn't much boba, and the taste and texture of the boba was okay. Overall, a good experience with 2 yummy donuts!

Stopped in for a donut treat and craving got satisfied! I like that their maple bar is not overly frosted, just the way I like it. I hate sticky fingers. They are nice and courteous there and the location is in the same shopping center as Ross!

This is another favorite donut shop that I occasionally like to come by and visit because it's off the freeway of 101. Normally I'll just get like one donut or a croissant always something small. The customer service here is always excellent they tend to please all the customers that frequent their shop. The donuts here are pretty much tasty but I still have my other favorite donut shops along my route while driving on 101. I wish that they had more of a variety but like I said it's off the freeway and I'm just happy that there is a shop that I can go to while I'm on my way to work. And that's my take of this fine little donut shop.

Came here to buy some donut holes and I found a couple dead ants on them. They were sitting there all day in a bag. I'm so disgusted.

Great donuts - fresh and not greasy. Like the ham and cheese croissants as well. Donut holes are particularly good

I used to live just across the street from DK's Donuts, so I've been here plenty of times, and it's…read moreeasily one of the best donut shops around. The donuts themselves are phenomenal, but they also make really solid breakfast options if you're not in the mood for something sweet. Their breakfast croissant sandwiches and bagel sandwiches are both great and worth trying. That said, the real standout here is their Vietnamese iced coffee. It's honestly the best I've had anywhere. I've tried Vietnamese iced coffee in different places across the U.S., and nothing has come close to DK's. Whatever they're doing, they've clearly figured it out, and it's a big reason I keep coming back. Parking is easy, and the inside is exactly what you'd expect from a classic donut shop. The staff is friendly and easy to work with, whether you're ordering something quick or picking out a larger order. They also offer a great variety of themed donuts for events like birthdays, holidays, work parties, or kids' celebrations, in addition to their regular selection. On top of that, they're available on delivery apps like DoorDash and Grubhub, which makes it even easier to get their coffee, donuts, and breakfast sandwiches when you don't feel like going out. Out of all the donut shops out there, DK's definitely stands out. If you're in Arroyo Grande, it's absolutely worth stopping by.

Best donut place in slo county and beyond. I don't know how they do it, but the donuts are so…read morefluffy and soft that they melt in your mouth. I think I've tried every donut in slo county, and this one is by far my favorite.

Came to pismo for a family getaway and of course had to have our morning coffees. The staff were…read moreextremely helpful and friendly. The environment was super cool and cozy. I was very happy with all of our drinks and the flavors they offer. I will definitely be recommending friends to stop by and try this sweet coffee shop.

I had a memorable experience at Scorpion Bay Coffee (Pismo Beach). I ordered the Salty Nut Latte…read more($7.25 - Iced - 20oz). This coffee contains salted caramel, pistachio & vanilla syrup, milk, and four shots of espresso. This fresh brew whisked me away on a magical journey. In the end, I found happiness. I arrived at Scorpion Bay Coffee (Pismo Beach) on Thursday (around 9:20AM). Surprisingly, there's nearby, competitive neighborhood parking. However, parking is consistently hard because it's Pismo Beach (expect parking meters). Fortunately, it's a leisurely four minute walk from the beach's coastline. When I had arrived, the location was stuffed with customers. POPULAR!! The line took about eight minutes to reach the counter. Staff is professional and diligent. Staff appeared fatigued, but Staff works hard. My drink took six minutes. As mentioned, I adored the Salty Nut Latte ($7.25 - Iced - 20oz). It perfectly balances utility and flavor. I felt very awake after sipping. The coffee and salted caramel add unexpected depth to this drink. And the playful aftertaste of pistachio and vanilla tasted delightful~ It tastes very fresh and natural. My eyes continued to widen in surprise with each following sip. It's one of the best coffees that I've ever had the honor of sipping. On ambiance, Scorpion Bay Coffee (Pismo Beach) is dimly lit and crowded. However, there's sincere utility. The location offers customer internet with password; customers must speak to staff for the details. (Pssst. It's a very easy password to remember.) In addition, I also counted six electrical outlets; each outlet is near each table. There's also a gender neutral restroom in the back. In addition, this location is very pet friendly. Commonly, I saw dogs held on leashes as customers waited in the long line to order. Scorpion Bay Coffee (Pismo Beach) also felt well-ventilated. The ceiling felt very tall, and most tables are very wide. There's about seven tables. The location also felt well-maintained and clean. Overall, I found unexpected magic at Scorpion Bay Coffee (Pismo Beach). It's one of the best coffee experiences that I've encountered. If you enjoy coffee, this is a must-try. 5 out of 5. GO!!!
