    It definitely the shock and awe factor! Today I was working in the area and found a hidden gem! How did I not know! Will definitely be back! #Doughnut #BananaCream

    Knead Donut & Tea is a small, welcoming spot with incredibly friendly staff. The donuts were fresh and delicious, with new batches coming out continuously while we were there. You can really taste the difference when they're served warm and fresh. Definitely worth stopping by!

    The donuts and pastries here were good, but could've been better. I visited this Cambodian donut shop with a friend around 10am on a Saturday and our experience here was relatively good. Going down the list of donuts/pastries we shared: -Creme Brûlée Donut: Nice brûlée shell and the custard was sweet and creamy. -Guava Cream Cheese Cronut: Loved the guava cream cheese frosting which wasn't too thick nor rich, but I wish the pastry itself was flakier. -Croissant Bomb with Jalapeno: Meaty and buttery. It's nice that they can warm it up for you. I felt like there was only sausage in here and there was a lack of ham and bacon. Not really worth almost $11 in my opinion. While the donuts/pastries were generally good, I felt like the donuts would've been better if we came and tried them at opening at 5am. That fresh element was missing and the donut quality tasted and felt like they were sitting out for a while. There's a good amount of free parking in the lot in front of the shop. They also have some tables and seating to enjoy your pastries and drinks at. I'm unsure if I would go out of my way to come here again, but this is a solid donut spot for sure.

    Straight forward customer service. Eccentric selection of donuts that are not your standard fare. Creative flavor combinations with some classics included as well. Good flavored donuts. If you're in the Long Beach area then chem 'em out!

    They came out with a mango sticky rice donut... heaven. Coffee is always perfectly balanced between strong and sweet. We get the Zombie.

    Not your basic donuts! They have so many fun and creative flavors. Everything we tried was delicious, and the presentation was beautiful. We also got a breakfast croissant and a banana Vietnamese coffee, yum! A spot worth checking out if you're looking for something more than a classic donut. The staff were also very nice! :)

    Yeah this place is incredible! If you love sweet things then you definitely need to put this place on your list!! The coffee shop is cute and has a number of cronuts and donuts to choose from. They also have croissants and savory croissants- like ham and cheese. The number of different beautiful baked goods to choose from makes you want to just spend all your money in this place to try them all. The service we had was also 10/10. The person we had was so kind and helpful. She was patient answering all of our questions and giving suggestions. She even found out it was my first time there and gave us a free sample. We got 3 cronuts, a ham & cheese croissant, a black sesame Vietnamese coffee, and a regular Vietnamese coffee. Everything was insanely good. I will say Vietnamese coffee is typically strong and sweet. It's nice here because you can control your sweet level, they have a whole sliding scale so as to make your coffee just right. I honestly cannot say enough good things about this place! Definitely when you have a chance check it out.

    I was hesitant to write a review, being from out of town I wanted to try it out. The selection was great, went early in the morning on Sunday. Tried the bacon, banana, strawberry, brûlée and guava. The bacon donut was a bit cold but tasty. Honestly they all were not as moist as I'm use too but taste good. Would recommend to buy the ones you plan on eating that moment. Although I left mine in the car and three days later ate the last guava it was still delicious. Not as good as fresh but great ingredients. Worth checking out if you are in the area. Guava was the winner.

    Picked up a few donuts for the fam. Didn't realize these were going to be fancy donuts until I got to the place. There's a good selection of decedent donuts. The owner was kind enough to add in an extra free donut. The donuts were all pretty good - I heard their coffee is good as well, but since I don't drink coffee - can't say much about it. Overall - not my type of donut (I like the old school boring donuts) but the execution and pricing fits. If someone is looking for a fancy donut, would rec this place!

    Donna S.

    6 donuts for $30. I came for the blueberry donuts because I've had it before from another shop and this one here looks exactly the same. However, it didn't taste the same. The other place was better but I don't remember where it was from. It was good but not amazingly memorable. I also enjoyed the strawberry fancy kronut. The creme brule with added filling, strawberry shortcake, and crumble donuts were okay.

    Donuts were a bit dry, the toppings on it definitely were delicious however buying into the donut it was a bit dry and they are somewhat over priced! The lady helping said a dozen can go up to $60, what saved it for me was their iced coffee! Definitely try the banana coffee

    Banana and pumpkin Vietnamese coffee so delicious
    Jessica O.

    I got the banana cream doughnut it was so delicious and I got their pumpkin Vietnamese coffee delicious as well, my boyfriend got the banana Vietnamese coffee he loved it and I tried it and I loved it too

    Bad Guava donut
    Swapnil J.

    "Worst donuts ever", "worst service ever". The place isn't that clean either. Deceptive technique to sell more. A guy ahead of us ordered 3 donuts and the rude woman behind the counter gave him 3 boxes of donuts (over $40). He tried to correct her but she took advantage of him being nice and pushed the 3 boxes of donuts. He was so nice, she totally took advantage of his nice manners. I was at least hoping for good donuts but no one even could finish theirs. Three different flavors, all bad. Don't waste your time and money on this disgusting place with deceptive techniques.

    Stopped in, and ordered a pig in blanket and 2 ham and cheese croissants. They gave us 2 sausage croissants instead and the pig in blanket was cold. Do we need to ask for it to be reheated when we order?

    They have pretty good customer service so I'd ask and I'm sure they'll reheat it for you

    How do I order for delivery? You guys don't show up on Grubhub...I'm trying to order for my friend whose going through a difficult time?

    I see they're on Postmates. I'm sure they're on other services as well. Just give them a ring and they can help you out. Very nice staff (and owner) each time I've been in.

    Stopped in and they said they do not have vegan donuts which is different from what is mentioned here? Beware if you are going to pack your kids up and travel here.

    Those poles are only there to discourage people from parking overnight. They are removed during their normal business hours.

    No, they don't. I've confirmed with them. Bummer, I'd come weekly if they did!

    Do you use peanuts or peanut products in any of your donuts?

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.

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 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.
