They accidentally made two and let me keep it so I had it to my friend. I do wish the coffees came in a larger size so I had to gracefully sip instead of chug my iced coffee haha. I ordered the special donut called the Black Sabbath. It had black sesame and brulee banana. And I had to get a chocolate one too. So it's come out nice and hot and fresh. Inside is very cozy with some cool tunes playing from their record player.

Once we finally found it again, we were so happy, and we've been regulars ever since. These are honestly some of the best donuts I've ever had. They are light and airy without feeling empty, but still have enough substance to be satisfying. The sweetness is perfectly balanced, and they always taste fresh. A lot of donuts can be too dense, overly sweet, stale, or so airy that there is barely anything to them, but these are the perfect balance. The women who work here are always incredibly sweet and welcoming, and the atmosphere is warm and pleasant. We've been meaning to leave a review for a while because we genuinely love supporting this place. We are definitely loyal customers now!

I was out driving around here in Long Beach early this morning and saw this donut shop. I know my…read morecrew would really love me more if I brought them some fresh donuts this morning. 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.

The service is great, it is so inexpensive and it is busy on the weekends for sure. The ambience gives nostalgic vibes, and I am into that. Parking does suck, so be mindful of that. The matcha and maple are my favorite. Also, they have a great selection of vegan baked donuts. MUCH BETTER THAN GOOD TIME donuts for sure.

This small, vibrant donut shop was busy from the moment we walked in, and after trying the donuts,…read moreit's easy to understand why! Since it was our first visit, the friendly staff was incredibly helpful in navigating the selection. We went with a vegan apple fritter, a vegan maple frosted donut, and a vegan maple banana donut and everything was seriously good. The vegan apple fritter was absolutely amazing and quite possibly the best vegan fritter I've had to date, which is saying something! The maple frosted donut was really, really good, and the maple banana donut was just as impressive. I couldn't leave without getting one more apple fritter for the road. Luckily, I got the last one! They actually have four different kinds of vegan fritters, but unfortunately, they were all sold out by the time we arrived. That's definitely a good problem to have, and now I can't wait to come back and try the maple frosted apple fritter. No weak spots on this visit, just really good donuts, friendly service, and a fun, energetic little shop. Honestly, I wish I'd found this place sooner. Hopefully we"ll be back sooner than later!

After trying the doughnuts my husband and I got on Saturday, here is my review…read more I got the Studio Ghibli collab doughnut. Per the flavor sheet, it said the flavor was cookies and cream. The flavor WAS NOT cookies and cream. It was a regular doughnut with chocolate frosting and design on top. I thought there would be filing inside of cookies and cream or the frosting at least, but no. I think these doughnuts are just for the aesthetics. The only reason I'm giving 3 stars was because the apple fritter my husband got was good. I tried a few bites and it was very tasty. You get the taste of apple. And the crunch from the exterior with it being light and fluffy on the inside. I'm disappointed because I've been wanting to try this place out for the longest time and my doughnut did not exceed my expectations.

We stumbled across Knead Donuts while we were in the area and decided to give it a try. So glad we…read moredid because this place is truly a hidden gem! We tried the Peach Cobbler, Banana Pudding, and Lemon Poppy donuts, and all three were excellent. The donuts were soft and fresh, the toppings were generous, and each flavor actually tasted like what it was supposed to be. The Peach Cobbler was probably my favorite -- warm cobbler flavors with plenty of peach topping. The Banana Pudding was creamy without being overly sweet, and the Lemon Poppy had a really nice lemon flavor. I also ordered the Zombie Coffee with banana cream. If you like your coffee STRONG, this is the one! The banana cream added a nice sweetness and flavor without taking away from the coffee. What really impressed me was the selection. We didn't get there until around 2 PM, and they still had a large variety of donuts that looked fresh. A lot of donut shops are pretty picked over by the afternoon, so that was a huge plus. Service was excellent. Everyone was very nice, welcoming, and helpful while we were deciding what to order. One thing to know: there is no restroom available, so keep that in mind if you're planning to sit and enjoy your donuts and coffee. Great flavors, fresh donuts, strong coffee, friendly service, and plenty to choose from even later in the day. We found this place completely by accident, but we will definitely be back!

A very welcoming vibe upon entry, we were greeted by a friendly couple who answered our questions about popular drink flavors. We decided to go with a Hot Cinnamon Dulce Latte and an Iced Blueberry Lavender Latte. While waiting, there were plenty of chairs, tables, a comfy couch and even a bar area to sit and relax. 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! Not to worry, her Blueberry Lavender Latte was also top-notch, with a smooth, not-to-sweet flavor combination. Friendly staff (which comes with occasional karaoke renditions from the Bluetooth speakers), a chill vibe and outstanding drinks make this a top spot in the area for hardcore coffee lovers. Check them out!

This shop closes early and I finally got a chance to visit and here's how that visit went…read more Broadway Donuts located on a busy street with minimal parking no worries for me I walked over with my dog Dylan Monroe as I attempted to enter I see a no dogs allowed sign I ask if it's ok to come inside because my baby is in a covered stroller she asks me if can I leave the stroller outside I promptly say NO!!! and they graciously allow me to enter. This 30 year old mom and pop donut shop holds no glamour or frills in the neighborhood but it's small clean and welcoming a bit warm inside but that's ok you're in and out very quickly. You're greeted by one of the owners Kim she seems to know everyone who enters the store she's a doll cute and kind her husband is in back he makes the grill orders and such. I ordered a ham egg and cheese croissant because of the high reviews and a few donuts. Ham egg and cheese croissant I warmed it up at home in my air fryer and let me tell you this was the best breakfast sandwich I have eaten in 2025 the croissant was tender and buttery the eggs where fluffy and fried to perfection and paired with the deli ham it was delicious this one is definitely a must try menu item. 10/10 Orange donut A fruity and tender cake donut with tiny bursts of orange flavor I loved it next time I'll enjoy it with an ice cold glass of almond milk. 9/10 Cinnamon donut. Tender and a bit dry not my favorite donut ironically because of the strong cinnamon taste but it's me the donut was fine occasionally I like to try this variety of cinnamon donut to see if I can find one that I actually like. 7/10 Glazed donut This donut was the bomb it was tender moist and flavorful and when I bit this bad boy I tasted notes of vanilla it was divine and is one of my all time favorite donuts. 10/10 Jelly donut Standard jelly filling was ok but the donut itself was the king it was tender and tasty just like the glazed donut that I loved. 9/10 They have quite a few donuts that I would love to try including drinks smoothies coffee and menu items I definitely will be back and recommend that you give them a try. The owners are Cambodian and I bonded with Kim over my love of the people and food she's very kind y'all and talkative just like me. ; ). Until next time friends and when you are in the area drive up the street to The Aquarium Shoreline Village or The Pike it's a nice place to visit. Just me Shawn C.

I left this place running for my car…read more The location is in a rough area of town, so while the donuts were edible, I felt compelled to issue a quick heads up warning for any unsuspecting newcomers. 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. Just looking to get out of there as quickly as possible, I headed immediately back to my car but was followed by an unknown man shouting at me asking if I could spare a dollar. 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. The donuts were basic and not overly sweet, more of a fried bread. My kids ate a few bites of each but it wasn't worth the stress of getting them.
