Review #929 2025-107 Donuts Order: 3 Chocolate Bars 2 Chocolate Frosted 2 French Crullers: Cinnamon Crumb & Cinnamon Sugar 2 Twists: Glazed & Sugar 1 Cinnamon Crumb 1 Frosted Cake with Nuts 1 Glazed 1 Old Fashioned 1 Sugar 1 Vanilla Frosted I was in the area & had 45-mins. to kill before The Yelpies, so I checked the TooGoodToGo app to see if there was anything nearby for pick-up before 8:00 PM, & Granny's Donuts popped on the map. If you haven't heard of TGTG, they're a certified B Corp social impact company that's on a mission to inspire & empower everyone to fight food waste together. They partner with bakeries, restaurants, & supermarkets to rescue good food from going to waste, with customers paying a discount (about 1/3 of the estimated value) for a "surprise" bag. Please note their surprise bags are day old or end of day items. Upon entry, the clerk asked if I needed help & I said I'm here for my TGTG pick-up. She asked to see my phone & took it from me to swipe for my redemption. Aaaugh! My phone is now sticky & needs to be clean. ＼(｀0´)／ This is especially weird to me since their order/pick-up counter has a plexiglass barrier, probably from the pandemic lockdown. She grabbed an empty box & walked back to fill it up. I ordered a $6.99 for an estimated value of $21.00, my surprise box had some weight & counted 15 various bars, twists, & donuts worth $26+. Not a bad haul. I didn't have any so I won't spoil my appetite & tried a couple bites when I got home. The donuts were likely day old, not end of day. Granny's Donuts is open 24/7 & inventory was somewhat on the low side for the night. But then, when does a 24/7 donut shop put out fresh & hot donuts? Likely in the early morning. I took a nibble of the sugar twist & cinnamon crumb, which were pretty good. I squeeze some of the others, & noticed that they were "older" & might need a nuke to freshen it up; the worst ones were the bars. The donut shop is located just off the 91 Fwy. & somewhat isolated off Lakewood & Artesia Blvds., though it was well-lit on the outside. There's plenty of parking spaces but none in front due to the entry ramp to the plaza. It's a decent size shop with some seating on the left, & an ATM on the right if you choose to pay by cash, not sure if they charge less for cash payments. Donut menu is pretty standard: cake, raised, bar, twist, French cruller, buttermilk, old fashioned, cinnamon roll, bear claw, apple fritter; I did see their version of the cronut. Price points are just under $2/ea. with a dozen at $18.75 & up, & 1/2 dozen at $10.50. I think this is reasonable? It's been awhile since I purchased donuts. There's also muffins, croissants, & other baked goods that's norm for a donut shop. Service is alright except for handling my phone when I can clearly show & swipe for my surprise bag redemption. I probably won't be back here due to the distance & standard menu, but I liked the fact that Granny's Donuts is doing their part to reduce food waste & offer cheap treats to entice potential customers into repeating ones. Recommended: French Crullers: Cinnamon Crumb & Cinnamon Sugar, Twists: Glazed & Sugar, Cinnamon Crumb. My family had the others & thoroughly enjoyed them as well, though the chocolate ones were more stale than the rest. read more

Come here on my way to work sometimes. This morning I got a jalapeño ham and cheese croissant. It was a little small but over all buttery and delicious. Staff are nice and donuts are good. read more

Ordered their Cronut. It was good and met expectation. Service was wonderful. I always enjoy it when they greet you properly and have a short chit chat. read more

Men complaining about the price of donuts on here... wow. I'd gladly pay $12 for a dozen donuts especially when they're fresh and tasty and conveniently located. Don't sleep on the apple fritters. Yummmmmmmy. read more

We have the Too Good to Go app, where you buy on discount leftover foods from restaurants. We got a notice that Granny's had a surprise pack for $5.99. We decided to give it a try. We paid ahead on the app and dropped by at the allotted time. They showed us how to mark in the app that we'd picked it up, took a dozen box in back, where I suppose they keep the day old donuts, and I ordered a watermelon smoothie while we waited. Unfortunately they made it with watermelon flavored powder and it tasted like not very good watermelon candy. Definitely no fruit in that smoothie. They came back with the full box and I mean it was full. They taped it shut but it was heavy. When we got home we counted fourteen donuts/pastries in there. There were fritters, claws, long Johns and more, all slightly stale but still delicious. We'll definitely do this again. read more

I had a good experience via the Too Good to Go app. The pick-up went smoothly and the box was filled to the brim with donuts and donut holes. Of course they're not fresh-baked but that's the point of the Too Good to Go app, to help reduce food waste. In any case, the donuts were delicious. read more

I did toogoodtogo and I don't know why everyone had such bad reviews for it on here. My box was so full it didn't even close and the donuts did not taste old. I even got a fritter that tasted AMAZING still. Got a big variety of chocolate. Sprinkles, old fashioned, coconut, etc. read more

What service. Middle of the day. Middle of the week. No one here but she makes me my own croissant ham and cheese sandwich when she had no more in the viewing case. Bless her heart. She sure knew how to make her customer happy. I will be back. read more

Definitely one of my favorite local donuts spot read more

Ordered from here on TooGoodToGo App lol...whew $5.99 got me 13 probably (tasted) 2-3 day old donuts! Most of them were PLAIN and the second most were chocolate then a couple buttermilk. Mind u the value is listed at $18! Now I don't mind the value cuz we can't eat that many donuts...but at least give us a couple of good ones lmao sheesh...so yeah read more

Ever since the owners left, that place is not the same. The girl there is extremely rude. She tried to over charge me for a dozen donuts then gets upset when I called her on it. I pay in cash and she just throws the change down at me. Horrible customer service and the donuts don't even taste the same anymore. Will be taking my business elsewhere read more

Second time I been to this donut place and waited for 8 minutes and no one came and help me horrible service

Don't participate in too good to go if you don't have the product to represent you. That's what happened here. We got several day old donuts instead of what would be considered leftovers from a shift. Worst donuts ever! I could tell the poor girl putting the box together couldn't find decent old donuts to give us because she took a long time putting the box together. Next time, don't open yourself to a bad review like this one. The entire point of this service is for you to get rid of still edible product and it gives us the consumer the opportunity to try your product. Well this is not somewhere I will return, regular fresh or not. read more

Doesn't matter how many time I come, their donut is alway fresh and so yummy. My favorite donut shop in town. The staffs are friendly as well. Don't take my word for it, just come grab your own donut ;) read more

So granny's donuts have that original mom and pop shop feel that I crave so much when heading to a donut shop. I have always enjoyed their buttermilk donuts and have always found them to be for the most part very fresh and sweet. I am not a fan of the more processed donuts sold at winchells down the street so this spot to me is a savior. Now here goes why I gave them three stars instead of the 5 I was originally going to give them. They seem to have really jacked up their prices when compared to other local donut shops. There was no incentive for buying the dozen, they charged me $12 when other similar shops charge $8. They are good donuts but that are not worth paying an extra 33% for your sweets. They also seem to always be out of something that I need when I'm here, I'd say if you're looking for a dozen and don't want to shell out $12 maybe try somewhere else. read more

Donuts tasted great and at a reasonable price. They're also open 24/7 so a great place to stop by if you have the munchies

Wow! I just had a chance to try their donuts today. It's all so good. I would definitely come back again for more.

TooGoodToGo three day old donuts wen I thought it was the day's leftovers.definitely not coming back

Granny's is my go-to spot for fresh donuts. The place is always clean, the staff is friendly and the donuts are the best.

Since I moved to Long Beach a couple of years ago, this has been my go to donut spot. They are open 24 hours and always have a wide variety of donuts to choose from. My ultimate favorite donut from here is the chocolate cream filled and every time I order it, it is delicious. There's is plenty of parking available so finding a nearby parking spot won't be an issue. The dozen of donuts is a bit on the pricey side but they make really good donuts so you really do get what you pay for. It is cheaper to buy half a dozen or a dozen as opposed to getting a single donut by the way. Occasionally the lady helping me out throws in a free donut when I buy the full dozen. I've always gotten good service and good donuts at this location so I will keep coming back for my donut fix every time I need one. read more

Everything is good and fresh here. The service ladies are friendly and nice. The store is clean as well. Definitely, will be back for more.

I wanted to check up on what granny was doing and decided to have some her donuts. Well, I found that the donuts here were quite average. There's nothing truly special that would warrant a visit here. read more

We live close by. Passed this place for 3yrs. Decided to finally try it out randomly at 1pm. Holly moly, the round glaze donut was bomb. Taste like it was freshly made. I usually get donuts from 2 locations, but this place will give them a run for their $$. Going back for a breakfast sandwich. Will give 5 stars if they can beat DK donuts in SM read more

NOTE I No Longer eat donuts. I come for the coffee & the people . Never a dull day here you could wright a soap opera . The bran muffins and the ham and cheese are very good. Remodeling is in progress . New display cases comming soon . It is familie owned and the service is good . I am a regular so I walk in and my coffee is pored with out my even asking read more

Apple fritter was Incredible ! And alwayssss love your boba (づ￣ ³￣)づ muahhh thank you for your service

Red velvet donuts! My excitement ends with the above statement. I've heard they served a version of red velvet donuts that seem to magically sell out. When I came in they initially said it was sold out, but miraculously said some became available. I suspect they were either frozen or refrigerated because she quickly nooked them in her microwave. How were they? They looked better then they tasted. In all honesty they tasted just like a regular cake donuts, I had no hint of chocolate or red velvet and was utterly disappointed. Lucky for me I picked up a chocolate e-clair that was leaps and bounds better. Perhaps a freshly made one may have swayed my taste buds. read more

My shop is in this neighborhood, so I have been buying coffee here for 15+ years. The owners are very nice, and have maintained a strong, steady business despite the challenges of an unfriendly city hall and sketchy homeless people that congregate in the area. Don't let them worry you; the owners and sheriff don't tolerate panhandlers bothering the customers here. They even persevered when the city gave Starbucks a plum deal to move onto the badly-contaminated closed gas station site next door, and tried to close Granny's through harassing code enforcement because they were so eager to woo Starbucks. If you Just Want Coffee, go to Granny's instead of Starbucks. Reference Foamy the Squirrel, in "Small, Medium, Large." (Hilarious NSFW cartoon, google it!) The donuts here are larger and more consistent than the ones at many of the other independent Granny's locations in town. They also seem to maintain a better and fresher selection throughout the day compared to the competition. Staples like glazed raised and holes seem to be made fresh as needed. Protip: From around 11pm, they start making new batches of everything, so there are hot fresh new donuts through morning, in case you mysteriously find yourself awake with the munchies. They have milk for these moments. The ham and cheese croissants are good and baked fresh every morning. They also have specialties like butterflies and "dog toys" which are croissant-like dough but made differently. There are muffins, cookies, and 2 kinds of cake for your sweet tooth. If you don't want to court diabetes along with your hypertension, they usually have bananas to go with your coffee. At Lakewood and Artesia/91 freeway, a commuter couldn't ask for a better location for a quick caffeine fix. Even during the morning rush, they keep the coffee brewing and the bags rustling so you can get in and out. There's an ATM inside if you need your caffeine and sucrose fix but are short on cash and time. Granny's on Lakewood Boulevard: the best donuts and affordable, unpretentious coffee in Bellflower. read more

Just for the Bear Claw. Sorry not enough filling, really only tasted the sugar and cinnamon, What happened to the apple filling and for $1.99. 6 bites and all gone. read more

Big and tasty assortment of donuts (especially the blueberry and the twists), short wait time, fast service, lots of parking, and friendly people. Highly recommend to those that are on the run. Their donuts are rather large compared to others as well, so A+. read more

It seems to be a magnet for the homeless and the criminally inclined, especially in the evenings. Management doesn't really seem to do anything about the crazier of the homeless just taking up real estate in the place. That's fine, I guess. They're providing shelter. It's just not conducive to business if someone is loudly and angrily yelling at a half-torn and empty coffee cup about the cups choice of kitchen cabinets, and vaguely smells of stale pee. But, that's up to the management, I guess. The prepared food is subpar, at best. You'd probably be slightly better going across to Denny's. The donuts and coffee are really the selling point here. But, there are better atmospheres and certainly better donuts and coffee elsewhere. If it's raining and you're waiting for a ride, duck in. Join in on the boisterous raucous with the disturbed homeless. Grab a donut and have some coffee. It is, however, a better deal than anything Starbucks could give you. And that Starbucks was built on what is well-known in the commercial real estate business as contaminated land--a former gas station. So, you take that information as you'd like. read more

I kind of like this place i haven't ever been inside the place but I have tried their donuts and it's actually pretty good too especially to live in bellflower trying to find new places to eat for breakfast like a good fresh donut this place isn't to bad. read more

This is the first time that I have stopped here, and it was interesting... The place inside is super clean, sits next to a Denny's, and is right off the 91 fwy at Lakewood Blvd. The parking lot is pretty lit up, so even late at night, you don't feel uncomfortable...Denny's is always packed and so is that part of their parking lot. I went inside jones'ing for something sweet, and had a hard time deciding on what to get...there was a huge selection! Even at 11 pm! Unfort, as I was looking at the glass cases, I noticed a couple scruffy looking men sitting in the right corner of the place. I made sure to keep my "eye" on them...I don't scare or get intimidated easily, but I could see how if someone isn't used to always being aware/alert of their surroundings, could feel a little uncomfortable. I finally decided on a croissant/donut (a cronut, but I guess since "Granny" didn't discover it, she can't use the name). It was the first time that I have ever seen one...looks really weird but cool at the same time. Got one of those and a large Diet Coke (of course, my drink of choice, and you know I gotta watch the calories?!!!). The guy that works behind the counter was super nice and friendly, and definitely made it worth while to drive over and try this place (there's two Granny's closer to my house, but I decided to make the longer trek). After paying with my debit card, I grabbed my drink to put my straw in, and I don't know how I did it, the damn thing tipped over and spilt all over the counter...nothing like making a first impression huh?! At least the guy was really nice to help me clean it up, and he filled up my drink : ) Took the "cronut" and my drink home, tried them both, and boy we're they good!!! I think the next time I drive over, I will wear a disguise!!!!!!! read more

I have been looking for strawberry French donuts since I was a kid, my mom likes down the street from this place so we decided to stop by after visiting, omg my favorite after all these years I was so happy to find it. We come often now read more

Donuts aren't bad but the outside element is awful. I won't come again. As I sit to write the review I'm noticing that the sheriff cruise by the parking lot more then what I think is normal - yep definitely not stopping here again - the Beverage Warehouse across the street I'm at a lot and it's fine so I have no idea why this side of the street sux read more

First time coming to this store where it's owned by a nice family. In my opinion, it tastes better than Dunkin Donuts. They were extremely friendly and the prices are amazing. I got a glazed donut and a ham and cheese croissant. I didn't have time to take a photo because it was so good. Yum! The decor is a nice rustic feel! read more

Super disappointed . The cronut was doughy inside and tasted of pure sugar. The lemon filled donut was average but filling tasted like Comstock. Something told me to only get 2 donuts when I usually get a dozen. So for two donuts I paid close to $4.00 dollars. Not even worth it. read more

Best donuts. Can never go wrong with a box of 1 or 2 dozen. Glazed twist are my favorite. Along with chocolate. Great deals too
