If you ever had a 1AM "I NEED a donut" moment... just know I absolutely acted on mine So yes -- I pulled up to Honey Donuts in Santee because when the craving hits, it HITS. And since they're open 24 hours, I knew I had a good chance of getting something fresh. Let me tell you what I grabbed: Glazed donut Bear claw Sinclair donut BABY... when I tell you these donuts were hitting?! The glazed didn't even make it home. Not even out the parking lot good. You know how sometimes you bite into a donut and it's just... air? Dry? No substance? Not here. These were hearty but still light, fresh without being greasy, and that glaze? Soft and perfectly sweet -- not that dry, crackly, fall-off-in-your-lap situation. Just melt-in-your-mouth goodness. And that bear claw? Stuffed and substantial. They are not skimping on anything over here. The donuts are a really good size too. At $1.75 for regular donuts and $3.00 for the large fancy ones, it's honestly a steal. Now let's talk service. Peter is SO sweet. Great customer service, patient, and he'll happily explain the donuts, ingredients, and menu if you have questions. That kind of hospitality at 1AM? Top tier. I'll be honest -- I'm normally a Sunny Donut girlie... but "Honey Donuts" just took them down and took the crown. If you're ever in Santee and you want fresh, affordable, legit GOOD donuts any time of day (or night), give them a try. You won't regret it. Thank me later. You're welcome. read more

The shop is very quaint, easy to find parking, and staff were very kind and helpful. I got my donuts off too good to go and many of them still tasted pretty fresh. There was a lemon filled one that had an abysmal amount of filling, but the other donuts were pretty standard. My favorite was surprisingly the old fashioned one with chocolate glaze on it. I don't feel this place is particularly stand out in terms of donuts, but good for convenience sake. read more

I LOVE MILK TEA BOBA!!! The donuts are yummy and the sellers are very kind and sweet, good service.

The place is the BEST for a morning donut or breakfast sandwich. I can't drink caffeine so when I asked if they had any decaf coffee, without hesitation, the sweet lady said she could brew me up a pot and THAT is 5-star customer service. I've been coming here for years for some delicious donut holes and I'll definitely keep coming back. I love the atmosphere and ambiance and just the whole vibe about this place is perfect. 10 out of 10? This shop is an 11. read more

My second time here and I decided to write a review this time since I have been so impressed with the consistent quality of both the food and the service! When you step in, you are instantly greeted by the scent of delicious breakfast sandwiches, sweet baked goods, and freshly brewed coffee. The staff here has always been sweet and accommodating as well, and the prices beat any large coffee chain around. This is one of my go-to spots for a quick refuel, and gives me the ability to continue my day. Highly recommend! read more

Honey Donuts - Donut Holes / Iced Coffee - Donuts Near Me - Santee, California

HONESTLY REGRET REGRET REGRET! While the donuts are good, I do not think the customer service is worth it AT ALL. Very rude attitude.

Solid donuts, solid coffee, exactly what you need on a Saturday morning. Donuts are fresh and not too dense or sweet. Cinnamon rolls are huge. The best kind of mom and pop donut shop read more

I haven't tried much from their menu, but the donuts here are very good. I've gotten a "mystery box" from them about three or so times. They basically chose the donuts for me, but they were great every time. At least twice, i got a box and shared them with my friends, who all really enjoyed them. The service here is very quick, and they are apparently open 24/7, which is good to know if you ever need some donuts at any time of day. The ambiance is also very nice, seeing as it has a very home owned business type of atmosphere feeling to it. read more

Donuts tastes bad! Taste old and too sweet, I feel not welcome at all, I know maybe the employee had a bad day but this is not means to be unwelcome to customers with bad attitude. It is donuts shop! I'm working too and I know what customer service means! I order Mixed box is not worth the price. Never again!! read more

Fresh, light and airy with a bunch of different types. Try their iced coffee it is the bomb!

Went here for a light night doughnut fix. Great selection of doughnuts even late at night. The doughnuts have good flavor & are not full of grease. Just the right amount of icing. Wonderful service. Coffee was a little strong, but good. They also have thrifty ice cream if you are in the mood for that. Good prices too. Clean & they have hand sanitizer out for when you are done paying. If you are in the area & looking for a doughnut come & check out Honey Donuts. read more

The service was super fast. Parking is so easy, it's right in front of the store. I got a bunch of donuts: glazed, sprinkles, jelly filled, a longer donut with chocolate frosting. All so good! They almost melt in your mouth. The store also has ice cream and drinks. It's open 24 hours!! read more

Been here like 30 times now so I can say with absolute consistency that this is the best donut shop in San Diego county.... And yes, I've been to a lot of others also. I tried the breakfast croissant for the first time so now that will be a staple in my order because it was probably the best croissant I've ever had. The bacon was perfect. The egg was perfect. Lots of cheese, lots of ham. Yum! I don't know what it is about the glaze they use.... But the simple glazed donuts are my absolute favorite. The glaze is better than any I've ever tasted!!! Just left, ordered a dozen mixed donuts, HUGE breakfast sandwich and a milk.... ONLY $27.50 amazing place read more
