Egg, cheese and Turkey, Ham, Bacon Or Sausage, Egg & Cheese

I'm from San Diego but Was in town for work, was hungry but wanted something quick. Was going to go to Starbucks until I randomly parked in front of this shop. Decided I'd try a mom and pop shop instead. Amazing !! Super affordable vs fast food spots. I didn't have cash to leave a tip :( owners are super nice so I made sure to post this review the moment I left. 100/10!

sausage egg and cheese bagel
Myer W.

Very good donuts and breakfast bagels. The owners are also super nice. Donuts are always fresh and perfectly glazed. I just wish they would char their sausage a little.

This place is amazing! The place is small, but mighty. I came around 10am on a weekday, and only one person was before me. Tables are closed, so everyone just comes in and out after getting their orders. The staff were so friendly and sweet. I was greeted and helped immediately. I came here for a quick breakfast bite and some donut snacks for later! Sadly, they were all out of donut holes for the day (must be popular!!). I got an egg and cheese breakfast sandwich, which was really filling. If you're wanting a crunchy sandwich, I wouldn't get these- they're soft, BUT good! I got a half dozen of the donuts with these being the flavors: chocolate, blueberry, glazed, and maple. None of them were disappointing! The donuts were fluffy, soft, and really really good! I'll be back to try the donut holes, andddd more donuts!

Vanilla cappuccino served hot
Poonam M.

Came for first time on recommendation from my next door app heard they needed help in sales during covid, I've lived near this place for 8 years and never tried them before. I've always liked apple fritters in the past so I ordered one of those and then the raisin roll and a vanilla cappuccino. First off I come in door and I get a good morning greeting which hardly anyone does anymore so that was nice.. kudos to owners for keeping atmosphere friendly ! Back to the food now. Apple fritters were crispy on the edges which I like and soft in center and not overpowered with sugar you can taste the apples , but I ate the second donut with my afternoon coffee and it was still soft and fresh tasting , that ended up being my favorite now. I also have to add that my coffee was really nice and hot which is the perfect thing for me I usually ask for super hot at other coffee shops , I didn't have to ask that here.

Donut Holes
Rob T.

As a donut hole lover, I can say this is one of the better ones I have had. The bite size is perfect and not too doughy.

Hey, hey, it's Donut Friday, donut-cha know? It was for me, anyway. And my first time craving the doughy-sweet confection since I've relocated residence to the lovely little town o' Pleasanton. Which makes me a Pleasanton-ian. Or something like that. Heard about this spot from friends and decided to check them out after Yelp re-affirming this spot is a definite go-to and am mighty glad I did. The Gist: Popped into Heritage (which, mind you, does NOT say "Heritage" from the outside of the building", instead, reads "O Donut" - well, unless it was just plain old "Donut" with a pic of an actual donut to its immediate left - anywho - just after 8am & the place was bustling with business. I was happy to glance inside the glass cabinet of goods to see there was still quite a selection of donut varieties remaining. My personal fave being the French Cruller (fun fact - cruller actually means "twist) was abundant which was a pleasant surprise because I have found multiple times I go to donut shops, that they either 1. aren't even made there or 2. ran out of them entirely. They had a good assortment of those in regular glazed, chocolate & maple as well as an array of other typical donut house types to choose from. I observed one of the bakers bring in a fresh batch donut holes which quickly had orders placed for them as soon as he brought them out. On the menu, they also had breakfast sandwiches prepared on either croissant or bagels as well as beverage varieties to pair with your doughy-goodness. Service: Fast & VERY friendly! The energetic and very friendly gentleman behind the counter hustled and bustled his way through everyone's orders & I observed him greeting all the "regulars" by first-name basis, which is always great to see. Matter of fact, virtually everyone he knew by name - yet another tell-tale sign of a nice rapport established between his patrons. Even offered a little playful banter with a customer who must come in daily as he jokingly gave the owner a hard time because he had run out of his favorite donut type. They gave all of us who were patiently waiting in line a quick morning chuckle over it. Great way to start the day! The Goods: My crullers were absolutely melt-in-your-mouth amaaaazing! I savored each perfectly flavored bite which was so delicately created offering not too much sweetness and the delectable soft dough made my mouth scream for more. I unabashedly scarfed down two on my commute to work and surprised the boss lady with a chocolate one as well which she kept raving literally all day each time she saw me "Jeanie - that donut - ohhh myyy Gawwwwd!" That tells ya something. I'll be back - maybe even will treat the whole Management Team to a dozen. That is, IF I don't just wolf those bad boys all down for myself! No judgement, dammit! This Pleasantonian is very pleased! Do yourself a favor & go here if ever in the area! 5 phenomenal shining stars based overall - best donut spot I've gone to I'd say in years!

Friendly Pleasanton donut shop. The donuts are excellent. If you are not in the mood for a donut, try a bagel sandwich. My sandwich was served hot which I really appreciated. Great value.

Ask the Community - Heritage Donut Shop

Hello, is indoor dining open?

Yes, but tables are limited and so is dining-in.

Hi, my son has peanut, tree nuts and sesame seeds allergy. Is this place peanut, tree nut and sesame seed free? are the sprinkles and chocolate glazes nut free?

Hi, Most of the donuts are completely nut free. The frosting is nut free as well since we have lots of customers that are allergic to nuts.

Do you do classroom tours. I have 7 first grade children who would like to experience the process of making donuts? If yes I will contact you.

Hi, sorry we do not do classroom tours since we make the donuts at 1 in the morning.

Do you have vegan options? This is what Siri pulled up when I asked her to find a vegan donut shop.

Sorry, we do not have any vegan options at this shop.

The setup is pretty simple. You order at the counter before finding a seat, and they bring your food out to you. Service is always friendly and fast, which I appreciate. And can we talk about how cute this place is? The inside has such a nice, cozy vibe, and they even have cute merch! Between the food, atmosphere, and consistently good service, Press continues to be one of those places I can count on. Definitely a favorite!

A Fun Breakfast Stop Before Hitting the Road!…read more Stopped by Denica's Real Food Kitchen to meet up with friends for breakfast before driving up to Davis to see my daughter! This cute, diner-style restaurant has a casual, welcoming vibe where you order at the counter first, then find a seat and wait for your food to be brought out. I ordered the "This and That" with buttermilk pancakes, bacon, and eggs cooked my way, hubby got the chorizo breakfast burrito, and our friends went with the pink guava pancakes and veggie omelette. The place was BUSY, filled with lively conversations, clinking dishes, and the mouthwatering aromas of breakfast being served! Service was quick and friendly despite the crowd. They also have an impressive display of pastries, cookies, pies, and tarts that looked almost too good to pass up. Everything we tried was delicious, and there's even a small play area in the back to keep the little ones entertained. Great food, generous breakfast options, and a fun, bustling atmosphere make this a spot worth visiting. Definitely a great way to fuel up before a road trip!

The menu is large, with savory and sweet, and out server Eda was excellent and attentive. The table was set up with plenty of condiments and lots of half-and-half, which was was great. I usually have to ask for extra. I ordered coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice. When the juice arrived, a large glass, I almost downed it at once, it was soooo good. The place has a full bar, and they offer a tasting sampler of four spiked iced coffees - fun! One problem with the menu - the omelettes are all four egg! That's huge. I was afraid to order one, thinking that I'd waste half. I got the basic two eggs with sides (with "potatoe" written on the receipt, ha!)
