Shocked this place doesn't have better reviews! So many choices on a Sunday morning at 9 am. There was no line, a few people sitting inside. The space is big with some tables, they offer a variety of sandwiches as well on croissants or bagels and different coffee choices. All the donuts I had were so so good!! Dreaming of that big cinnamon roll right now!! read more

I again was going for some boba and for some coincidence there was a donut shop next to it. Is this a San Jose requirement? I'm sure it's pure coincidence. But that won't stop me from getting an apple fritter to try and indeed, I did get one. In short, the apple fritter was a tiny more in cost than the last one I tried and it was so sweet that I was bouncing off the walls. I won't be getting this again but I will definitely be back to try out the other items (if I'm ever back in the area) as service was phenomenal. L O C A T I O N Located off of Lundy Ave., Happy Donuts is located in Kingberry Center. There's a bunch of parking that's pretty busy as there's a laundromat and other stores and restaurants that seem to have a lot of patrons. I did find a spot pretty near to the place. I N S I D E It was very bright and very well stocked in terms of donuts. There were a couple of tables inside and a group of men hanging and chilling around which was cute. I T E M S / M E N U They do have other items besides donuts like coffee and sandwiches. But I was there for one thing. An apple fritter. Generally I would see barely anything left by the time I go into any kind of donut shop. But they basically had everything! They also had cronut holes alongside your normal donut holes. Although I was tempted to buy more than an apple fritter, I stuck to just that one item. It was relatively flat and it looked very glazed and crisp. It was definitely crispy and a bit moist too. The apples felt like they were soaked or even secondarily coated with sugar and cinnamon which may contribute to the excessive sweetness of this apple fritter. It basically hits you like a brick. That's the only flavor profile you get is cinnamon and super sweet. They do have plenty of apple chunks. Just way too darn sweet for me. So if you have a sweet tooth, this is the apple fritter for you. S E R V I C E Service was so great! The person who helped me was so happy and definitely made my day. Payment is $10 minimum for credit card so I paid by cash. O V E R A L L They are definitely happy at Happy Donuts which is a wonderful thing. Although I did not feel like the apple fritter was the best, I would come back and try out their other donut selection and update when I do. The service itself would warrant another trip back if I'm ever in the area and wanting some donuts. Definitely try them out! read more

I came here the day after Christmas (a Friday) and it was open. I ordered a Thai tea ($5.95) and it tasted good. It is similar to the Thai teas that you would get at any restaurant. Since I got there around 3pm, I expected there to be almost no more donuts, but was pleasantly surprised to see the case full of donuts. I'll definitely come back for a cronut one day. read more

Under new management & new name. The old name was Kingberry Donuts. The shop is totally remodeled and updated, but still a mom & pop family business. I only got a blueberry cake donut which was cakey but flavorful and moist. The icing was not too sweet. Come support this new local business just 3 months old. read more

Hmm I've been to this location before it changed management and never seen flies in here and today I went in and seen there were flies. Ordered donuts which were good but just the flies made me not really want it eat the donuts. read more

Happy Donut, you have been redeemed... so much so that I went two days in a row and considered going for a third. Why? Their Vietnamese Coffee has a stronghold on me. It's tastes exactly like the Kopiko brand coffee candy - if you know, you know. The hint of butterscotch flavor with a bold coffee taste. It's not overly sweet either. Also I'm happy to report that they DO have French crullers. On my last review I wrote about my disappointment of not seeing French crullers on my first visit. Not only did they have French Crullers, but Happy Donut has all the floavrs: glazed, vanilla cream, chocolate, etc. I got the good ol' glazed one, and it was exactly how I wanted them to be. Lastly, I still stand by their eggwich sandwich being bomb. I got it with their everything bagel this time around, which I honestly was better than with the croissant in my opinion. read more

Happy Donut & Cronuts - Coffee - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

$1.95 for a single glazed donut, paid with cash, is crazy. The price for a dozen is pretty good but I was just trying to use up my cash, not use my card for the $10 minimum. The donut wasn't as good as other places in the area and they didn't give extras for free like other donut places like 1 extra donut or even a donut hole won't hurt lol read more

One weekend, my husband and I were looking for something quick and tasty for breakfast on the road. We'd been wanting to try Happy Donut for a while, but every time we were in the plaza it was closed--probably because we usually stop by at night. This time, though, we finally made it, and I'm so glad we did! Happy Donut did not disappoint and has officially become my new favorite spot for a breakfast sandwich. The croissant was perfectly crisp and buttery, and the egg was light and fluffy--such a satisfying combo. You can really taste the freshness and care that goes into their food. If you're ever in the area, definitely take a few minutes to stop by and try something off their menu. It's worth it! read more

Haven't been here since 2019 no longer Kingsberry Donuts now under a new management and quite a change from the previous ownership. Came by on a Monday morning greeted very warmly by the staff. It was quite cold since I chose French vanilla coffee large size $4.30 extremely reasonable and two twist donuts. The only drawback are their hours though they're open seven days a week so that's a real plus not to mention for those early birds for a quick cup of coffee and bagels. Ample parking depending time of day located at a busy intersection. read more

I have been here a couple times now-with coworkers and with family. We have tried their cronuts-amazing both filled and non filled-we now get these every time! Their breakfast sandwiches are soooo good-my favorite is a #4-sausage, egg, cheese and jalepeno's on a cheese/jalapeño bagel-no mayo. Out of all the different bagel-donut shops I have been to, theirs is by far my favorite! Coworkers have tried their other breakfast sandwiches and they agree they are really good! Today was the first time getting different donuts-we got several different kinds and we truly liked them all! Highly recommend this place. Not only is the food good-the service is great. read more

Great progress on improvements. The shop has had a complete makeover. I'm glad this shop is around the corner for years of future visits Things I wish they would seriously consider improving; - They need lots more seating!! - They take a very long time to make the food which can be frustrating after a while - Some machines don't work! - they don't give mayo /mustard packets/sauces (I was denied) The clerk messed up our order forgetting the customizations we requested. No bacon, not grilled, no cheese. SOO they need a way to record the requests of the customer (not just a verbal acknowledgement ) Now she has to make the whole thing all over! But that is another 10 or 15 minute wait Avocado was bad quality! Disappointing They need to Welcome customizations of the food. They very often say "normally" we don't do that. Or that isn't possible There are A LOT of people getting frustrated with the wait time . It's just too long! I can never come back again unless I'm willing to STAND around for 15mins. People are leaving and coming back from their cars Maybe next time I'll go to Safeway The staff in the front can stay more patient when the customer is frustrated. Th THIS WAS A BAD EXPERIENCE. I WOULD actually not come back home I likely read more

Under new management! It's now a perfect neighborhood donut and breakfast shop. The donuts were fluffy and fresh. Tried the custard donut holes, cronut holes, and regular glazed donut holes and they were all good. The breakfast sandwiches were excellent. Well seasoned and generous with the meat. Tried the thai tea and it was pretty sweet. My friend asked for her Vietnamese iced coffee less sweet and they obliged. One thing to note is we had to buy water, but you can bring your own too. The staff was friendly. It wasn't busy on a Sunday afternoon. There are a few tables to sit at inside. Overall great experience. read more

This place is so cute and personal. I feel like the two workers (likely a wife and husband situation) know just about all of us who regularly come in. Even if we miss a day or two they will still remember your order and have it up immediately. I love it! read more

All donuts look fresh but kind of very expensive for 6 pieces of $14.90. I think it is better to eat my steamed banana saba.

Donuts are amazing and the staff is friendly. BUT horrible hygiene.. I don't think I'll revisit ever again.

Best bacon egg and cheese croissant ever!!! The Vietnamese coffee was also very good.

I am not a donut person but I'm a sucker for old fashioned plain donuts and they did not disappoint! Went in this morning to get some donuts for work and got myself one, it hit all the spots for what I look for in an old fashioned plain donut. I would definitely come back, and the customer service was great! I think if they can make a simple donut that good all the sugary ones must be delicious (for those that like glazed, sugared etc). read more

This donut shop isn't our usual, but we decided to stop by since we were across the street. They don't have a huge selection of donuts, but they have breakfast sandwiches too, along with muffins and croissants. I got their chocolate old fashioned- I liked it! Tasty, not too sweet. But the way the chocolate was drizzled on was messy. The other donuts looked messy too. My fiancee got a sausage breakfast sandwich. It was a bit overpriced and small compared to our usual donut shop's croissant sandwiches. It kind of tasted like those frozen Jimmy Dean sandwiches you microwave. I tried their kolache (hot dog wrapped in a croissant).. nothing special. it was microwaved so the croissant wasn't crispy. Likely won't come back again, but it did fulfill my curiosity. I always like to try mom-n-pop shops. Oh, cash only! read more

Happy Donut & Cronuts - My bread is burnt yikes! - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

My five stars are for their breakfast sandwiches. I'm not a donut person so please dont take my review towards that. I came here with a friend a few years back and she insisted I try the sandwiches there. I told her I was not fond of donuts and she told me I wouldn't be disappointed. I am so glad I listened to her. This place has the best croissant breakfast sandwiches ever. The #9 croissant sausage and cheese with egg is worth every penny. The cheese is melted to perfection and they give you two sausage patties instead of one so that every bite will be full of scrumptious meat. I always opt the egg out because I feel as if it takes away from the saltiness in the sandwich. The only downfall is that when they run out of croissants, they can't make the sandwich anymore. So come early and order that sandwich! read more

I came in at 5am before work and the lady didn't say hi or anything so I proceeded to ask if it was open and she rudely told me back "well the sign says open right" I AM A MAJOR MORNING PERSON..and if you aren't don't open your donut shop at 4am. If you are grumpy don't open so damn early. I asked her for a breakfast croissant and she rudely said you have to wait 5 minutes. I was fine with it but, everything was so odd..I told her nevermind I'll go to Seven Eleven she rudely said yeah go.. What kind of customer service is this? Like I said if you aren't a morning person don't open so early and if you do open early please be ready to open with a GREAT ATTITUDE. Never been treated so badly in my life. The Women was so rude. read more

My wife came here all of the time as a kid. Boy, have times changed. I'd choose Safeway donuts over these, especially for the price. Our first clue to run the other way should have been that there's only one other person there on a Saturday morning...any good donut shop would have a steady stream of people. The cake donuts tasted of old grease and felt "day old." The old fashioned donuts just seemed old (pictured). They weren't even the right shape, and mine tasted burned. From the tired look of the furniture (clean, at least) to the tired, smile-less face on the lady and man behind the counter, this place is meh. Not worth 95 cents per donut... read more

Yet to find a donut shop that has ice tea. I ordered a mini apple fritter and plain cake donut. The cake donut was nice, not too sweet and not too dry. The fritter had a nice apple chunks giving a good apple flavor. There was a good amount of glaze, not too thick. read more

One time, my sweet hubby brought home a croissant with sausage, egg and cheese. I had a bite and I was so hooked that I made him buy me one the next day for breakfast! I didn't know that this was the place he bought it from, and luckily enough, there was a job in the area, and I was able to visit! This is a small donut place, smaller than the ones back home in San Diego. The smell of donuts and coffee seriously reeled me in. I like that kind of smell in the morning, really wakes me up! I ordered #3 croissant ham, egg and cheese for $3.95, a dozen of donut holes for $1.50 (.15 cents each), and a hot dog for $1. The croissant with ham, egg, and cheese was very appetizing to me! The croissant was large, with generous amount of egg and cheese. Some people may not be a fan of this, but I am an egg and cheese lover so I didn't mind that at all. Everything in the croissant was satisfying to me, that if I had more cash with me that day, I would've bought another one! Sadly, this place is cash only. I'm not a fan of cash only because I don't carry cash all the time, so it's a huge bothersome for me. The hot dog was about 5-6 inches long, which was warm and just about average; like how a normal hot dog should taste. The donut holes were salivating, not too sugary or oily. I thought it was just fine. Honestly, I would like to come back to this place, and get my hands on the croissant with sausage, egg, and cheese once again, and also sample the rest of their breakfast sandwiches. The couple here were welcoming and friendly. It's always nice to come back to a place where there's good food and good service. That's all it takes for me to become a regular. =) read more

I prefer to spell it doughnut, but that's how they do it in the sign, so I'm not going to be conflicting. Then again, it's cheaper to spell it that way on a sign. In any case, decent little donut shop, although I would recommend Christy Doughnuts [http://www.yelp.com/biz/christy-doughnuts-san-jose#hrid:RJevJQfYZA-icvquM5egDQ] a few blocks down the road. Kingberry sells their dounuts for around $0.70 each, bars are $1.00. One dozen will set you back $7.25. On the plus side, they have crumb old fashioned. Unfortunately, I didn't see any twists. Seating a little ghetto with basically white patio furniture, although when I went on a weekday morning, the place was pretty full with patrons reading newspapers. read more

Happy Donut & Cronuts - store front, 2008 - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

I preordered 8 dozen donuts the day prior for business meetings. I asked them where they were located and additional information (clearly I haven't been there before). Well I made the wrong assumption thinking that a business in 2017 would have a credit card machine. They didn't have one and they didn't mention to me that they were cash only, over the phone. The tab was just under $80 and to me, good customer service, someone would give advance notice to customer, stating they are a cash only facility. I get there in the AM and I find out they don't take plastic. They pointed me to a bloody ATM machine inside their shop. Well that would be ok in normal circumstances... but when you are using a company credit card it's useless. Luckily for me I had just enough to buy half my order to get my first meeting fed with some sugar.... Never the less they were not accommodating in the situation. To me, not taking credit and having a ATM machine is just a scam (my opinion). I haven't not seen a donut shop that doesn't take plastic these days... damn roach coaches take plastic! Most will charge you $.50 cent or a small fee which I'm ok with and justified for small businesses. My two stars go to the lack of customer service, not have a credit card machine, not being accommodating and their quality of donuts wasn't the best to have to go through all this.... read more

Happy Donut & Cronuts - Some left over donuts. Quality seems a bit stale. - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

I liked the selection of donuts they had here. I really hate it when people are indecisive about what they want when it comes to donuts. People, donuts aren't expensive! It's not like your paying tons of money for them. If you crave them, and you want them, buy them. There were some customers that were so indecisive about what it is they wanted, and they kept asking for other things after they had payed for the donut they got. At least the cashier was quick about handing me my fix of donuts. Oh, and they have ice cream too! read more
