    Mole Grail w/ Chef Bricia Lopez
    Jennifer N.

    Holey Grail took over one of my favorite spot on 2nd street. Used to be our favorite local breakfast/ brunch place when I was living in Naples back in the days. I first tried their donuts at the taste of the nation event for No Kid Hungry and I fell in love with their hot Taro donuts! Wished they kept the Strawberry on the menu! There's a small parking lot in the back. Park at your own risk.

    Wow! I'd never thought to try a taro based donut but it's a crazy combination. The texture is so packed but moist and the flavors really come through this way. For parking, I'd recommend trying to find street parking. Would def go back!

    It was my first time here and these are the best donuts I've ever had! Service was super fast and the donuts were so fresh! It's a very cute spot to grab coffee and eat donuts!

    Made fresh while you wait, absolutely warm and wonderful! First time bring my husband to Holey Grail and he was very happy with the donuts and coffee. He got his usual black drip.amd I ordered a Chai Tea Latte. For donuts, we ordered four and shared. We ordered the Original Sin (Classic), Chocolate Crunch (Classic), Wild Guava (Seasonal), and Peanut Butter Cup (Seasonal). All wete excellent! My husband's favorite waa the Wild Guava. For me, they were all too good for a favorite! Tasting Box section on the menu are their seasonal donuts. This changes monthly! I have never had one repeat yet! Service is always friendly and helpful! Each visit I am more impressed with their donuts!

    Super cute donut shop on second street! But what sets them apart from the res?! these donuts are made with taro and fried in coconut oil! Vegan and so delicious. Holey Grail originated from HI and brought over some delicious treats. All are made to order. What changes on each type of donut are the glazes and toppings. My first time trying and I went for the wild guava with edible flowers. When ready, I was confused looking for the wild guava in the box my sister ordered since I didn't see any with edible flowers. Inquired at the counter and the guy stated they had run out of flowers. It would be nice if I had been told beforehand... I may have ordered another flavored donut. Nevertheless, we all sat at a cool table looking outward to second street and sampled a couple of flavors.

    My go-to donut spot, Holey Grail makes you feel a little bit better indulging in an "unhealthy" treat. At first it does taste way different than your usual donut but you get used to it, the dough is made of taro and cacao then fried in coconut oil! Holey Grail really takes pride in their ingredients used and its mostly sourced from Hawaii! When you order, they make the donuts fresh to order so it takes around 5-10 minutes for your donuts to be made. I recommend eating them right away and it will literally melt in your mouth. There is a decent amount of seating inside and outside to relax and wait for your donuts. As for the donuts itself, I recommend getting the tasting box to get a flavor you really like. I've tried the Cosmic Churro which tastes like your average churro, Lilokai which was sweet and just the right amount of tart, Pandan was pretty good and their hot singles and Original Sin are good options too, you can't go wrong. My ultimate favorite is their Miso Honey though, that one is outrageously good. Shoutout Robby for holding the store down too!

    Such amazing, fresh, melt in your mouth delicious donuts!! I absolutely love this place. Everyone who works at this location is so kind and sweet and helpful. The donuts are freshly made and so unique, delicious with tons of exciting flavors and rotating/seasonal options as well! The coffee and chai here is also so delicious. There are some seating options both outside and inside if you want to enjoy your donut and coffee at the shop while people watching on 2nd st. Absolutely love this place!!

    Taro based donuts! Each donut is made to order and dipped individually by hand. Very interesting process of making them and fun names : original sin, hot single, PB cup, Hail Mary and lilikoi. You can get an assortment box from 4 pieces to a dozen. Friendly and patient service: it's not easy deciding which one to NOT get. Also got iced Hawaiian vanilla latte and and iced Hawaiian chocolate drink. One bathroom but no changing table for infants or toddlers. Lot of merchandise including coffee beans and shirts, bags, mugs, hats etc... Open air seating but our group took up the one long table (10 adults). Many more stools available. I really enjoyed the lilikoi or passion fruit donut. You can get a pack of donut holes dipped in one flavor I suppose.

    Really excited to see Holey Grail has arrived in Long Beach! I first tried their donuts in Honolulu, and these mini treats are just as amazing. Each one is packed with flavor, making you wish you had ordered a dozen instead of just one or two. Given their size, I'd recommend two donuts per person. They bake everything fresh to order and offer a wide variety of flavors, and the staff is welcoming and helpful when recommending what to try. With plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, it's also a great spot to work remotely or catch up on emails. Also make sure to check out their cute merch items when you're waiting on your order!

    Ryna D.

    Delicious donuts made of taro! I'd say texture-wise, they feel like a hybrid of cake and mochi donuts. They are definitely unique so you ought to try them for yourself! I loved the donuts but I'm not a big fan of their coffee and matcha drinks because they are dairy-free and use macadamia nut milk and I do not like the taste of macadamia nut milk combined with coffee or matcha. It just doesn't work for me. I'll go back for the donuts but I'll skip the beverages..

    TROPICAL MANGO

    I swear we've seen this movie before but the grail is something you don't have to sacrifice your limbs for. It does hurt the wallet though when you realize the box and portion is the size of said wallet. Hey it was good though! I think I'd have to sacrifice something just to get a spot around Belmont Shores though. Obviously it's not a bakery issue but who would've thought an 11AM visit on a Tuesday would still compel finding parking in a residential neighborhood 2 blocks away. The takeaway here though; nothing feels better after walking a bit in the blazing sun when the place literally slaps you with immediate AC and a cool fan. ‍‍ The vibe and service matches each other perfectly which is amazing to me; vibrant but chill, loud in appearance but classy in execution and approachable. What surprised even more is that the cashier actually knew what the food profiles of each little donut provided. Expertise even though she said she was only working there for a month or two? Slay girl. Especially when I heard the menu changes almost every week. Now the prices don't seem off-putting at first considering we're entering this establishment with an expectation of what a donut looks like both in appearance and size. Let alone I never would've expected that they glaze, style and the donuts on the spot when you order it. All that frosting caking up a fresh pillow of a donut But guys/gals... that expectation caught me by surprise. The sizes between the price to portion is... sub. I want to say it has something to do with the taro-based dough they used. But when I got my box of what was four donuts thinking there was only two until I opened the box; Miso Honey (funny enough miso and honey do go together), Food of the Gods (looked plain but those cacao nibs were awesome), Pandan Paradise (pandan, mango and passionfruit? Yo chill) and Tropical Swirl (swirl of strawber-SWEET, it was too sweet). I put these in order of favorites, starting with my most favorite. Premium flavors but definitely something for an occasion than a frequent visit.

    The ridiculous menu with their ridiculous prices on these so called donuts
    Tim S.

    From the start, I could've told you that this place was not gonna succeed. Their donuts were way too expensive and way too small for the price that they were charging hopefully that's something better will be there.

    Tasting Box (4 pack) Wild Guava, Cosmic Churro, Rick Martinez, Reincarnated
    Hazel G.

    This is one of my favorite new places. Donuts are made per order so very fresh and presentation is excellent. I'm big on customer services so the intentional connection with us was great. The vibes were vibing here. It wasn't busy when we arrived so we got our donuts right away. As someone who isn't big on sweets this is now my new favorite dessert place. All of the donuts we got were so delicious. The wild guave licking fingers good. The Rick Martinez the layers of flavors was exceptional. This is the second time I've got the reincarnated donut and I'm so happy about it!

I'm glad to see this is more of least a normal donut shop with real normal donuts. I'm tired of these new fancy donut shops specializing in "creative" donuts with all kind of crazy toppings like every sweet cereal you grew up with priced like at $5.00 a donut or something. I go in and can tell this is one of those Asian donut shops that opened all over down here in SoCal. I think they might be Cambodian, nothing against Asians making donuts, they're the ones that started using the pink boxes we all know. Asians make the best fried chicken, so why not donuts? I look at all the donuts in the cases and they seem like all the familiar ones. I order a dozen and just point to the ones I want. The even have bear claws. I got one of those just for me. There's croissant stuff too. Service is friendly and efficient. The interior is a little dated but I'm here for donuts, not a fancy date or something. I get the donuts and eat that bear claw on my way back to the hotel to meet up with my crew. Yes, they were surprised to have nice donuts, so nothing like a happy crew to make them get the work done.

I got lucky- It was about a half hour before closing and there were no other customers. Cute little place! I was helped by Ilyas, the manager. What a stellar individual! I told him it was my first time, and my preferences (not big on frosting, but like interesting flavor combos) and he walked me through the different types. I was happily surprised to see that they carried some traditional donuts as well as the frosted themed ones! I found that this shop was related to Simones donuts which is a great business! They even do cookie tins and caramels. A couple of the special edition donuts looked so decadent and flavorful but more like a dessert that I commented. He then brought out for me one that was a brand new item and it sounded perfect- a sugar donut topped with strawberry mascarpone encircling a pandan center and I had to get it. He even let me have my themed matcha donut without the fancy little emblem for $1 less! So nice. Those, with a biscoff donut and a logo pin completed my purchase. The pandan topping was sweet but the mascarpone was reminiscent of a strawberry yogurt and the flavors blended perfectly. The other donuts were huge, fluffy and perfectly textured. I would have liked a stronger biscoff and matcha strawberry flavor in those crumbles but at least they were not sweet! Just delicious. The prices are fairly high but I will definitely stop by occasionally to see what delicious creations they are whipping up and get myself a treat!

Tons of board games, books and wonderfully mellow music helps make the experience feel comforting and inviting. Our drinks were prepared quickly and shouted at the coffee bar for pickup. The presentation was great, but the flavors, out of this world! The Cinnamon Dulce Latte was OUTSTANDING. So good, in fact, that my girlfriend stole it from me!

As I entered the parking lot I witnessed a lady hanging out of the window of a car missing a rear bumper, cursing at a minivan that looked like it had recently been involved in a series of hit-and-run crimes. I'm unclear what occurred before I got there, but kept my head down and quickly parked and scurried inside. The entrance had cardboard on the ground laid out like some sort of Oscar the Grouch red carpet. There were two people sitting at the middle two tables with portable shopping carts filled with assorted belongings. The interior matched the rest of neighborhood with random stuff laid out on counter tops, and a general dirty feeling that made me consider whether I wanted to buy food here, but I was already inside. There was a single woman working the counter. She was polite and matter of fact. I had promised my kids donuts, so I ordered my box to go. While she used appropriate tongs to put them in the box, she didn't bother to fully close or seal the box.

I quickly fidgeted for my keys and pulled the door closed and locked it behind me. This was at 9am. I cannot imagine this place late at night.

Final total on the register was $8.88 (without tip) for one donut and no drinks. That is 3 apple fritters at another spot, which I DO NOT mind paying, if there is something high quality or fantastic about the donut I am eating, which this was not. It was a simple raised yeast donut base with a scoop of rice on top, green food dye, fresh mango chunks, and some coconut shavings. I thought there would be something on the inside (more mango filling or a cream) or something different about the dough (tiny mango pieces inside, a different spice), but it was like another plain donut with things placed on top. One of those things being simple rice. Definitely felt like the donut didn't justify the price. What if I bought 3 different donuts and a drink. Would it be $25? Not enough of a flavor difference for me to pay that next time.
